My advice if you’re watching this Cdrama for the first time is to just breeze through these first few episodes and rewatch them later. If you’re like me, all the characters’ names and faces, not to mention the video game slang went whoosh over my head. The drama opened with Yu Tu sitting in a […]

Lovers of the Red Sky: Ep 3 On Blindness, Peaches, and Other Things
Thanks, @Welmaris, for bringing this up. Heaven knows we all love our fantasy romances, but a little dose of reality won’t hurt. This is a fantasy with deities intervening in people’s lives, so I can’t be a stickler for reality, but I do want to call attention to ChungKi’s fantastical transformation from blind to sighted. […]

Lovers of the Red Sky: Ep 2 Highlights
Episode 2 gave us a time jump – a full 19 years ahead in the future. ChungGi and Ram are 28 years old and it’s the 28th year of King Seongjo’s reign. Highlights. I have to limit myself to three because I’ve guests coming over for barbecue. Happy Labor Day to my fellow Americans! 1. […]

Lovers of the Red Sky: Ep 1 First Impressions
Move over, HP2. This is the kdrama that captured my interest. Here are the things I like about Episode 1. 1. The world-building I appreciate the drama giving us the creation myth because I’m not well-versed in Korean mythology. A creation myth is important because it reveals how the characters perceive cause and effect in […]
Bitch Talk: What Are We Watching Sept 2021?
On top of my list is “Lovers of the Red Sky” (LotRS or Red Sky, for short). Next is Yang Yang’s “You Are My Glory” (which is completely subbed by now), followed by “Hometown Cha Cha Cha.” “Hospital Playlist 2” has been moved to the backburner. I would have thrown it in the rubbish pile […]
