Excuse me while I spazz – wet Roy Qiu = fanning myself and hopping up and down like an epileptic rabbit. Clearly that picture above just short circuited my brain, but once I regained my sanity, I realized that the written preview for episode 5 of Miss Rose is like drama rom-com crack made just for me. Vivian the bitchy … Continue reading →
Arang and the Magistrate is adorable and crazily ambitious. It pulled a huge game changer in episode 4 that reset the OTP and raised the stakes to astronomical levels for all the main characters involved, even the omnipotent ones. This is no longer just about the mystery of Arang’s death, this drama now is about the curiously unbalanced state between … Continue reading →
When Joe Cheng quietly snuck off to enlist last week, I thought he wanted to avoid the media scrutiny and keep his shaved head under wraps. Turns out he just wanted to be low key, and this week he got a day off to visit family and he happily left the training camp to speak with the media gather outside. … Continue reading →
My beloved Miss Rose continues to rock and roll after four episodes aired, staying far ahead of the Sunday ratings pack (no other drama broke 1 in ratings while MR maintained a 3.22 for episode 4) that even if its ratings doesn’t continue an astronomical rise like its predecessor Office Girls did, it should still comfortably win its timeslot for … Continue reading →
Another solid episode of Arang and the Magistrate, confirming for me its stellar start was no fluke and the drama has got its act together. The story is moving along so fast, yet time is spent developing Arang and Eun Oh’s relationship and character reveals that helps ground this fantasy tale in stakes that we care about. Arang is a … Continue reading →
Kyaaaaaa, Koala Epic Flail Alert! My perfect precious Moon Geun Young has just confirmed her onscreen return in the SBS weekend drama Cheongdamdong Alice, and her rumored co-star Park Shi Hoo has also confirmed. Double yay, and really, which guy would turn down the chance to work with Geun Young? Though truth be told, my dream ideal pairing would actually … Continue reading →
Good things come to those who wait, and I’ve been patiently waiting for Nice Guy to premiere therefore the first teaser is indeed as good as I had hoped. This drama looks dark and twisty, and starting off a teaser with Song Joong Ki purposely french kissing a girl is clearly going to catch my attention right off the bat. My … Continue reading →
Despite being exceedingly annoyed with the pointless and meandering episode 6 of Rich Man, Poor Woman, the lack of recapping isn’t because I’ve dropped this drama. I’m traveling so I really have no time, but I was hoping episode 7 would turn this train back on track. To my everlasting joy, it did! Oh hurray hallelujah, I love episode 7 … Continue reading →
Dayum, if SBS wanted to win douchebag television station of the year awards, it just vaulted to the lead today. SBS announced via a press release that, after its weekend drama Five Fingers premiered this past weekend to solid starting ratings, lead actress Eunjung will be leaving the drama and her role of Hong Da Mi will be recast. Her … Continue reading →
I’m still slowly coming off the high of Big, despite knowing that the story was mostly all expectations that weren’t met, ultimately what little that did pay off truly connected with me. I think of Da Ran and Kyung Joon somewhere falling in love again, and telling the world that it can take its objections and shove it. Gong Yoo … Continue reading →
I knew it was only a matter of time before my exceptional OTP of Ha Ji Won and Lee Seung Gi from The King 2 Hearts reunited to promote the drama, and lo and behold, they did a photoshoot for a Japanese magazine where I immediately flash back to Hang Ah and Jae Ha. I haven’t got around to rewatching … Continue reading →
Well this is going to be a big hot mess. Seriously, not even being optimistic or praying to the movie gods will this movie actually turned out to be quality cinematic achievement. It’ll probably make lots of money during the Summer season, give all the young actors exposure, and continue the trend of director Tsui Hark‘s descent into flashy mediocrity. … Continue reading →
There was once a K-drama on my top-10 list. I raved about it here and there, trilling that it was so amazing and wonderful and everyone must watch it. This was a long time ago, when I first started watching K-dramas. One weekend I was bored and decided to rewatch it, and to my utter shock and horror, I grew … Continue reading →
