Just Bitching: On Aborting “Good Boy”
Just the facts…and my usual comments. 1. An unborn baby was killed. Regardless of who the parents were, let’s focus on the real tragedy here. A human life was deemed disposable because of: 900 million won (or $765,000), a nascent stardom in showbiz, and a (broken) promise of marriage. Think about that. We all know […]

Lovers of the Red Sky: Ep 11 Q&A Thread
Sometimes it’s best just to have a question-and-answer session. Because I don’t have enough time, I’ll limit myself to four questions. 1. Who killed Haram’s father, Ha SeongJin?

I don’t expect you to watch this Cdrama based on my first impressions. In all honesty, I’d rather that you didn’t watch it. That way, I won’t feel obligated to write reviews for it to explain my takes. I get to selfishly keep all the goodies to myself like a secret treasure. Remember to practice […]
