Another year, another year end review. For me the year end review contextualizes the dramas watched on three levels – its own merits, how it stacks up against its compatriots, and how the year measures up against previous years. If I wanted to add an additional intangible factor, then it would be how happy or frustrating it was for me … Continue reading →
I’m glad that Yoo Seung Ho got to play a romantic leading man in a more romcom-ish setting before taking on this darker role of Kang Hyung Joon in Missing You.
