Some folks not watching Marry Him If You Dare (Mirae’s Choice) might be wondering in a rubbernecking sort of way how godawful this drama can possibly get even with a scant two episodes left. Judging from the just released stills for episode 15, there is plenty of room in drama hell left for it to go. Following in the wholly … Continue reading →
I’m trying to find a way to write about the written and video previews for episode 15 of Marry Him If You Dare (Mirae’s Choice) without resorting to expletives and throwing things at the computer. The entire drama has become a tease, a painful protracted pointless tease wrapped in an unsavory shell. It’s two episodes left and still the drama … Continue reading →
I’m so glad Heirs/The Inheritors is a 20-episode drama. That’s Kim Eun Sook‘s normal length but I’ve never felt so keenly that this drama couldn’t possibly be shoved into 16-episodes and right now I’m worried if there is even enough time left to resolve everything for everyone properly. I’ve come to like some of the side characters such as Bo … Continue reading →
Good gracious who picks Lee Min Ho‘s outfits in Heirs/The Inheritors? It’s been mostly a non-stop fail party since episode 1 with the only decent one being his school uniform. He gets the most screen time as the male lead, and so does his consistently headscratching outfits that range from down right fugly to perplexing. This one for the upcoming poignant … Continue reading →
LOL forever, what new fanservice weed is Kim Eun Sook smoking this week? Did she mistake Kim Woo Bin for his character in Friends 2 and decided to merge his currently top grossing movie with his currently highest rated Wed-Thurs drama? The new stills are out for tomorrow’s episode of Heirs/The Inheritors and looks like Young Do has magically turned … Continue reading →
I love how predictable yet increasingly satisfying Heirs/The Inheritors has been. This includes SBS releasing the preview for next week’s episodes on the Saturday re-runs of the previous week’s episodes. Thanks for breaking up the monotony of the weight and adding little nuggets to chew over. Next week is right on cue for a Kim Eun Sook drama, which is … Continue reading →
The totally unexpected late arrival of two awesome episodes of Heirs/The Inheritors this week gives me hope that Marry Him If You Dare can get its act together for the final 4-episodes. It can’t be that hard to just explain things simply and let the four leads having some romancing (finally!) and then ship future Mi Rae back to either … Continue reading →
I always need to LOL at Korean viewers and their propensity for prim and proper covering up in sageuks. I still remember the hullabaloo back in 2010 when Chuno premiered and poor Lee Da Hae got raked over the coals twice, one for a near-rape scene when she was accused of showing too much skin (whut?) and then later in … Continue reading →
Oh Kim Eun Sook. Why you be taking my praise for episode 13 of Heirs/The Inheritors and immediately photo-bombing me with evidence that you’re about to lift a major OTP scene from Secret Garden and plop it right into this drama? Even worse is that I think I’ll end up liking it. Sigh, so torn between my brain that tells … Continue reading →
I’m happy to be enjoying Heirs/The Inheritors with no expectations of quality or consistency. After a rather unexpected solid episode 12, I didn’t dare to hope episode 13 would take the narrative further. If Tan outed his own bastard status, he’s clearly trying to upend the entire chess game of his life, but would the drama tell us that the … Continue reading →
It’s sad the writing for Marry Him If You Dare (Mirae’s Choice) has been confusing and lackluster. It’s not bad, per se, just oddly jarring and premised on keeping the audience in the dark as to motivations. I actually think the characters are all well constructed, but the development of the characters have taken a back seat to future Mi … Continue reading →
Looks like there is more kissy kissy time ahead for the OTP in Heirs/The Inheritors. I wished I cared more but it’s hard to care when Tan pretty much forces his will on Eun Sang. Even if she maybe likes it, I’m not a fan of the method of taking under the assumption that the other person is willing to … Continue reading →
I think Kim Eun Seok casted well in pairing up Lee Min Ho and Kim Woo Bin as frenemies in Heirs/The Inheritors. They are both equally as tall and honestly their mano-a-mano staredowns wouldn’t work if they weren’t equally as imposing. Tan is quiet but I like that he acts out first whenever Young Do pushes the wrong Eun Sang related buttons around him. In the preview … Continue reading →
