Congrats to the Bad Mom (The Good Bad Mother) and her complicated loving relationship with her son as the jTBC weekday drama ends with this Thursday’s episode 14. Most K-dramas are 16-episodes, some 20 and a few even 12-episodes but this is an odd length as I can recollect. Other than that the drama was a one way success train, … Continue reading →

The do-over or second chance drama especially if it’s about familial ties just tugs at my heartstrings, it’s deeper and more poignant than just lovers and romantic love and also gives veterans and youngsters both equal chance to shine. Upcoming jTBC drama The Good … Continue reading →
