Korea has been in the throes of older woman-younger man drama pairings for years so I’m pretty inured to it all. Unless its totally incongruous to me, for the most part if the storyline and the chemistry sells it then I’m game. Kim Tae Hee is a heck of a lot older than her co-star Yoo Ah In in their upcoming … Continue reading →
Come to me, my beautiful hilarious boys! I feel like my love for Hyun Woo and Lee Sang Yeob courtesy of spending 160 episodes with them in I Live in Cheongdamdong gives me the added boon of saying that I saw them first before y’all so they are my precioussssssses. Hahahahaha….*hack hack hack* Okay, the evil genius laugh is very … Continue reading →
This is weird. And squicky. Not to mention a little bit icky. Korea has a fixation with Lolita much?

Ahhh, Nice Guy. I can safely bet cold hard cash that someone, if not everyone, in that drama is going to get royally screwed. But whatever magic brew Lee Kyung Hee is concocting, I’m hoping this one is as delicious as some of her other works that I loved dearly because I am so ready to get addicted to some … Continue reading →
Now that is the look of an Angry Guy. So why did the drama Nice Guy choose that for its name, when clearly the titular male lead is likely to be pissed off and vengeful for a good chunk of its run. Perhaps writer Lee Kyung Hee wants to hammer home the irony of it, or show that a genuine … Continue reading →
Over the weekend I added to another reason for me to watch Nice Guy. I didn’t need another reason, I was planning to watch this sucker come hell or high water, but in addition to leading man Song Joong Ki and a script written by Lee Kyung Hee, I’ve now discovered one of the other second male leads is Lee … Continue reading →
