Yay, gamechanger. Boo, this took way too long to arrive. Yay, more funny is back. Boo, the drama is still so schizophrenic with the transitions. Yay, Koala picks a ship. Boo, instead of Kang Woo, Koala ships a tightly wound North … Continue reading
Today’s episode had some insanely choppy editing. Here I was worried that the script was the weak link when the suddenly awful directing hits me smack in the face. I think if there are script rewrites underway already and live-shoots, … Continue reading
Taking a wait and see approach on whether Spy Myung Wol gets better for me totally chafes at my impatient nature. These previews don’t tip the scales either way, and honestly just makes me wonder if this drama even has … Continue reading
Now that we’ve all had a week to digest “the slap”, those of us who can’t stomach a male lead who does that have jumped ship, and the rest are just waiting to see how the drama reconciles such a … Continue reading
I have a feeling that the slap heard around the dramaverse at the end of episode 6 of Spy Myung Wol will be real and simply be accepted within the context of the drama. Much like Thai lakorns and their … Continue reading
