• As we finally (!) head into premiere week, JTBC’s Welcome to Samdalri came out with another feast for the eyes teaser, where we follow our heroine Shin Hye-sun (See You in My 19th Life) as she finds her way back to Ji Chang-wook (The Worst of Evil). Taking over the weekend slot now that Strong Girl Nam-soon has finished its run, the friends-to-lovers rom-com begins in just four more days on December 2. [Newsen]
