“KICK KICK KICK KICK” is a 2025 Korean drama series with 12 episodes, categorized as Sitcom, Office or Workplace Comedy; and streaming on Viki. SUMMARY: An actor and producer joined hands to produce an award-winning show and then they had a falling out. Years later an investor dangled a “$3 million carrot” in front of them and they couldn’t resist his offer. They joined hands again! Will they recreate their magic? Will they repeat their success? ♦ No! We’re Not Coming Out! But It Would Be Nice If We Got Back In! In “KICK KICK KICK KICK”, Jo Young-Sik, a producer, sees the real actor Ji Jin-Hee in the bathroom and is surprised that he is courteous and polite. WOW! He’s a nice guy in real life, he thought to himself. Then … coincidentally or maybe it’s fate … he saw Ji Jin-Hee again, in a restaurant ordering food. Jo Young-Sik had an idea for a TV food show and decided to approach Ji Jin-Hee with an offer to work together. At first, the actor refused, but he eventually warmed up to the idea. The result? They won awards for the show. But then they had a falling out and […]

Not sure how I feel about this one. On one hand, the idea of a second chance at success and the clash between these two characters sounds interesting, but I can’t help but wonder if it’s too cliché. The whole "fate brought them back together" thing feels a little overdone. And then there’s the investor throwing in that whole "$3 million carrot" to get them back on track—just feels like it might be playing a little too much into tropes for my taste. The comedy could be great, though, especially with the actors they’ve got. But I don’t know... might pass unless the reviews get better.
 
I'm a sucker for stories about second chances, and this show has that in spades. The idea that these two characters are brought back together after failing in different ways really speaks to me. It’s that underdog, comeback story with a sprinkle of humor and a dash of fate thrown in for good measure. The part about them trying to get 3 million subscribers within six months adds the perfect amount of pressure for some real character development. Plus, Ji Jin-Hee playing himself? That’s gotta be good for some laughs. This is totally going on my watchlist.
 
Kick Kick Kick Kick has a lot of potential. I can already imagine the comedy that’s going to come from the weird situations these two characters find themselves in. The whole "being caught on a live stream while trying to fix a crisis" is a funny twist, and it’ll be interesting to see how they play off of each other. The whole idea of getting back to the top after both characters hit rock bottom is relatable, and I can see the show making a big impact with audiences who are into that "comeback" kind of story. Looking forward to it!
 
I honestly can't get past the title. "KICK KICK KICK KICK"? It just sounds like the kind of thing that was made for a viral moment, not a serious show. I couldn’t even bring myself to read the premise because that title is way too much for me. It just feels like they tried way too hard to be catchy or trendy, and now it’s come off as cringy instead. I get that some people might find it funny, but I just can’t take a show seriously with a title like that. Definitely not something I’m interested in watching.
 
I can't get over how fun it was! The chemistry between Ji Jin-Hee and Lee Kyoo-Hyung is chef's kiss. I mean, the whole "live-stream misunderstanding" that led to them reconnecting was hilarious and so charming. I didn't expect to laugh so much while watching a workplace comedy! The whole idea of them trying to rebuild their careers with a $3 million investment had me hooked, especially with the pressure of getting 3 million subscribers in six months.

I also really appreciated how the drama combined comedy with some heartfelt moments. It's not just all about laughs—there are some solid life lessons thrown in, like "Life can change with one punch." Definitely going to keep watching to see how they handle building this new production company!

Also, I totally get the iced Americano craving. If anyone can pull off weird drink ideas and make them sound delicious, it's this show. 😂 Looking forward to the next episodes!

Oh! You can use all of these words. Cheesy, corny, wholesome slapstick humor. Ji Jin-Hee is a serious actor. It was kind of fun to see him playing himself and not taking himself seriously. The actors must have had fun filming this series. I'm curious to know if they had "bloopers". LOL.
