I’ll strike while the Miss Rose iron is hot, dropping the preview for episode 11 following my recap for episode 10. I think between Si Yi and Cheng Kuan, it’s not a surprise that he’s going to be the one to take the first step. She’s not only once bitten twice shy when it comes to love, she’s also facing … Continue reading →
It’s so easy to step into a drama and tell the character how they ought to behave. Those who have been cheated on ought to stomp on the cheater when he returns and then turn around with a flip of the hair. Those in love with one person but committed to another should just end things and move on to … Continue reading →
When I said I was yet to become obsessed about Nice Guy earlier this week, when only six episodes had aired, I am now officially obsessed with this drama after watching episodes 7 and 8. Those two episodes were killer awesome in taking me deeper into the characters and more importantly, making the characters dig deeper into themselves and make … Continue reading →
I find it such a cosmic coincidence that my previous post on Ha Ji Won was about her doing a CF for a bank that had her wearing a stunning one-shoulder evening gown at some awards show where she was caught practicing her swing during the downtime. I mentioned that her swing was legit, as all golfers can spot those … Continue reading →
It’s nice to watch a drama film under the radar without being crammed full of big-name stars or idols since the expectations lessen considerably, though it does make it difficult to obtain as many goodies without the enthusiastic fangirls scouring the earth for any tidbit of news. The upcoming cable network jTBC drama Can We Get Married is premiering on October … Continue reading →
Booyah! This episode was simply da bomb. I just love the post topping screen shot of Maru and Eun Gi in episode 8 of Nice Guy. The way they sit next to each other, not arm-touching-arm but with a distance that is closer than just friends. The way they both look out towards the ocean, the way his bruised and … Continue reading →
While watching the thrilling episode 8 of Nice Guy, I was so immersed into the drama that I clear forgot the red carpet of the Busan International Film Festival (BIFF) was being laid out and the stars were descending on the sea side town to light it up with glitz and glamour. If I have time I’ll do one of my … Continue reading →
My anticipation for King of Dramas with Kim Myung Min and Jung Ryeo Won is one of calm hopefulness. While neither the cast nor the story sends me into a tizzy, conversely nothing turns me off this drama in the slightest. Since I’m also not watching Faith, looking forward to KoD means that Faith will soon be done and … Continue reading →
Nice Guy is becoming quite a nerve wracking watching experience. I wonder if the drama is just going to keep building and building the nervous tension and draining emotional developments and wait until the very end before giving us some release. This works well when I marathon tense melodramas, but watching it week-to-week is already giving me serious heartburn. I … Continue reading →
Before Lee Seung Gi charmed my socks off in The King 2 Hearts, I was rather bemused to see his growing popularity all over Asia. Now that my boy is permanently ensconced in my good graces, his pan-Asia popularity simply gives me more Seung Gi goodies to nom nom on to my heart’s content. I have to confess that when … Continue reading →
I remain fascinated by Nice Guy, though that fascination hasn’t yet morphed into an obsession. But at least the interest is there, whereas with Arang and the Magistrate where I’m just watching for my beloved Lee Jun Ki and not much else (don’t get me started on the “performance” cutie pie with the hideous wig Yoo Seung Ho is delivering … Continue reading →
Today is Yoon Eun Hye’s birthday so let me wish my girl a happy birthday first of all! The drama world has been abuzz lately with the casting of Yoochun’s I Miss You where Eun Hye was reportedly offered the role and subsequently reportedly turned it down. That’s all good and fine with me, but it got me thinking about … Continue reading →
It’s a testament to just how awesome an actor Song Joong Ki is that his Kang Maru in Nice Guy is so emotionally loathsome and yet I still haven’t call it quits with the drama. Yes, the drama is excellently directed and the story has flashes of brilliance, but having two of the three leads be complete and utter human … Continue reading →
