Sigh. Since Office Girls started, twelve-episodes in, this was the first time the drama has planted the seeds of angst. Mama Shen’s health is now an open question (serious or not?), Xing Ren’s career might be headed towards a crossroads, and Kai Er is down but not out. Tia Li gave an interview this week saying that she will be … Continue reading →
I’m just going to keep this short and sweet. SUNDAY COME RIGHT NOW. That is all. Xing Ren and Zi Qi’s Tamsui date is going to be epic. I love them so much I can’t wait to see what happens. I’m sure this episode will be rewatched so many times we can all recite the dialogue shortly. Let’s start with … Continue reading →
Okay, I take back what I said (somewhat) about the first trailer for Me Too, Flower making the drama seem like a potential big ole mess. The six-minute trailer is out and the drama no longer seems wack-a-doodle and random. I like what I see of Yoon Si Yoon, genuinely like his character and performance from the trailers alone. He … Continue reading →
Man of Honor really tries my patience, doling out the story at its own pace regardless of what I may want. I’m not griping as much as I’m just whining because I really want to see more Young Kwang and Jae In adorableness. Watching the three leads finally interacting on a more consistent basis makes for great conflict and plot … Continue reading →
You know who I relate to the most watching Office Girls? I feel like I am Mama Shen, watching and prodding my two kids Zi Qi and Xing Ren to get together and be happy. This drama has turned us all into Mama Shen, hiding around the corner and peeking at Zi Qi putting Xing Ren’s head on his shoulder … Continue reading →
I’m glad that the plot of Man of Honor is finally headed towards Geodae, the company formerly belonging to Jae In’s deceased father and stolen by In Woo’s shady daddy. The baseball stuff was adorable, but it clearly was a stand-in for the real battle to come between Young Kwang and In Woo. Jae In is so clearly going to … Continue reading →
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 →
I would love for Office Girls to pull the rug out from under the typical rom-com relationship development and have Xing Ren and Zi Qi get together soon and then deal more with them winning at the company as a team. I’m really annoyed by the Kai Er arc, and it’s clear Yu Cheng Feng doesn’t like Xing Ren that … Continue reading →
I was wondering why there were so many people reading my Man of Honor recaps, but then so few people wanting to chat about it. And then I realized it’s not readily available in subbed episodes. That’s such a bummer for me, because I want to talk about it! As I sit on the first two episodes for a few … Continue reading →
I sound like a broken record on this, but I can’t help it. Office Girls is so fun to watch. I confess it’s the first of the three Sunday night Taiwan dramas I watch, even if I enjoy In Time With You and Ring Ring Bell immensely as well. The three dramas are so different that I treat OG as … Continue reading →
KBS has released a preview for episode 1 of Man of Honor (Glory Jane), which premieres tomorrow. While I really liked the early teasers and even the long trailer, this preview makes me a little hesitant again. Everything looks So. Dramatic. And then slightly bipolar when combined with all the cheeriness from the other trailers. I’ve been going through a long … Continue reading →
The PD for Protect the Boss gave an interview this week where he revealed that the ending for the drama will be very “boss-like”, so I take that to mean breezy and charming if we’re going by the first half of the drama. I’m cool with that. I’m pretty certain at this point the two-episode extension was purely for the … Continue reading →
We’re headed into the final two episodes of Protect the Boss, and I’m feeling that warm bittersweet feeling starting to settle in. Sadness at the end of a drama, saying goodbye to characters we’ve grown to care for. But relief that it’s ending soon, so everyone gets their fitting farewells without the story getting prolonged for the sake of plot filler. … Continue reading →
