Zenkai Girl has been over for a month now, but I find myself actually missing it. Like missing a friend who has moved away and I can’t hang out with anymore.

It was epiphany time for Zi Qi at the end of episode 10 of Office Girls. Will Xing Ren follow suit in episode 11 and then we can spend the rest of the drama with them playing house? Eating pasta with broccoli, and finishing up with some almond tofu. 😛 Man, this drama is turning me into Stallone with all … Continue reading →

Can someone explain this drama to me? After watching the teaser trailer for Me Too, Flower, I find myself perplexed. Genuinely stunned by what I have seen, in a “OMG that looks godawful” sort of way, but then bearing in mind that this drama is written by the dude who did the great My Name is Kim Sam Soon and the … Continue reading →
