Bossam: Eps 9 & 10 On Cinematography
One of the most pretentious comments I often see in a fan’s review of a drama is “I love the cinematography!” To me, unless the fan can explain her usage of the word, she’s merely showing off that she knows a six-syllable synonym for “landscape,” “view,” and “scenery.” Cinematography should mean so much more than […]

Throwback Thursday: HP Ep 10 On IJ’s Confession
Recently, somebody asked what I thought of IJ. In a word, sly. He’s a sly one. Note, however, that I distinguish between actor and character. My blog is NOT like soompi or fan twitter where critiquing/criticizing a character is viewed as bashing the actor. I say that the actor deserves praise if he/she has convincingly […]
Bossam: Ep 9 Looking for Jane Austen
I told you that this drama reminded me of Jane Austen, didn’t I? 1. Impudent actions and thoughts BW: Why don’t you forget things like that? I told you I had my reasons. You only remember such useless things like that. SK: (quietly) Does someone remember because she wants to? The words you say, the […]
