MTESa

Bickering OTP vs Lovey-dovey OTP vs Hot for each other OTP.  I choose this for my next topic thanks to a suggestion from goodange and while watching King2Hearts EP 3 today. It turned out to be an intriguing idea that got my mind whirling. Seeing Ha Ji Won and Lee Seung Ki trading barbs, wise-cracks … Read more

Wild Romance: First Impressions

Wild Romance feat

I’d planned on recapping this drama but I’m not so sure anymore. Perhaps it will unfold like rom-com Korean dramas often do but right now, it’s pretty much a screwball physical comedy and I don’t know if there’s any point to recapping something like: “She hit his head with a hammer then he slipped on … Read more

Upping the Ante: Myung-Wol The Spy Episode 8 (‘ish)

CR7

From episode 1 MW the Spy caught my eye with it’s upbeat, goofy, cold-war-spy-movie tone and wacky, adorably clueless characters (that describes nearly ALL the characters.) With Ep 8 the funny continues, but the ante has been up’ed, on all fronts. The proverbial cat is (sorta) out of the bag, KW knows that MW is … Read more

Romance Town: A First Look

FEAt2

There are way too many potentially good dramas airing right now and frankly speaking, there’s no way I can keep up with them all. However, I’m trying most of them out to decide which to keep watching and which to save for a later date and now that I’ve seen the first two episodes of … Read more

Dr. Champ: Is It A TKO?

feat

A few months back, after watching episode 13, I’d planned on writing a review of this drama entitled: “Dr Champ: Not Quite A TKO.” But I couldn’t muster the interest to write it nor could I be bothered to finish the drama. However, today, I unexpectedly found myself with hours to kill so I decided … Read more

Guilty: A Devil-free Review

11

A woman who’s been wrongly convicted. A cop who’s been not-so-wrongly ostracized. A woman who’s taking revenge on not-so-innocent people. A man who’s trying to save those people. A woman who drives people to suicide. A man who’s trying to stop her. Add some puppies and romance and you’ve got Guilty – Akuma to Keiyakushita … Read more

SKKSbf

Before I immerse myself totally in all the current series, let me take my final bow to SUNGKYUNKWAN SCANDAL. I’m not going to recap each episode BUT I will summarize two lessons. Here, LESSONS are used to denote an episode. It’s a very befitting title for every chapter in this series.  Personally, I just don’t want … Read more

My Boyfriend is Woong-ah

Dae-woong:  ”At first, when my clothes were wet with your tears, I told myself I would just wait until they dried. But then, the clouds grew bigger, the skies darkened, and rain that blocked my path came down. Rain that can’t be stopped, can’t be avoided, falls down on me… Where do I go? I’ve … Read more
