This is another thread on cheating. @nrllee commented on cheating and other things, and I split her post in several pieces to answer her. Her comments are in blue italics. 🌸🌸🌸🌸🌸🌸🌸🌸🌸🌸🌸🌸🌸🌸🌸🌸🌸🌸🌸🌸 I’m answering @nrllee’s post here. Yeah she was mad that JWan didn’t have the courage to break the news to her. It’s very hard […]
Throwback Thursday: HP 3 On Dealing With Cheaters
Our discussions in this blog weren’t all about the lovelines. Here for instance, I pointed out the difference between JWan and JW’s approach to dealing with cheating when one of their friends was involved. Songhwa was upset with JWan for keeping quiet about her cheating boyfriend. I agreed with her. 🌸🌸🌸🌸🌸🌸🌸🌸🌸🌸🌸🌸🌸🌸🌸🌸🌸🌸🌸🌸 @sayaris wrote this: […]
Throwback Thursday: HP Ep 3 Review & Easter Egg
This blog was the first one to point out the significance of coffee in the drama. You see, in Episode 1, I noticed that Songhwa gave her colleague Dr. Bong “iced Americano,” saying that it should be good enough. In her own words: “It should be good enough. If I get you something better, it’ll […]
Throwback Thursday: HP Episode 2 Review
Here’s one more post on Episode 2. It’s the last one. There was so much information to unpack in Episode 2 that I had to do it piecemeal. Please remember that when I wrote these analyses of the episodes, I was doing them “on the spot,” without foreknowledge of the next episode. Also, if you’re […]

Bitch Talk: Should We Watch These in May 2021?
Bring it on, drama gods! We’re ready for the next big hit in drama land. 1. Bossam – Stealing Fate Do I want another sageuk after “River Where the Moon Rises”? This one is set in Joseon period so at least the costumes will be prettier. This is a long summary (practically an essay!) from […]
Navillera: Episode 12, Part 1
Many of the old-timers on this blog know that one of my pet peeves is the pretentious use of the word “cinematography” to mean “panorama.” The kdrama “Mr. Sunshine comes to mind. It was mind-blowing how many fans raved about the cinematography when all they were really impressed about was the wide-angle shot used to […]

Vincenzo: Open Thread, Part 5
It’s the final week! Vincenzo: Open Thread Vincenzo: Open Thread, Part 2 Vincenzo: Open Thread, Part 3 Vincenzo: Open Thread, Part 4 Counting down to the last two episodes of Vincenzo reminds me of that nursery rhyme, “Ten Little Indians,” immortalized in an Agatha Christie mystery. In the book, ten characters were murdered one by […]
Throwback Thursday: HP Ep 2 The Songs
I seldom pay attention the OST (Original Soundtrack) unless the song is catchy, and I feel the need to gather all the OSTs in one thread. With this drama, however, I’ve no choice but to take a close look at the songs because the very title itself of the drama implies that the playlist is […]
Throwback Thursday: HP Ep 2 The Dinner
Another old post uploaded. It’s unfortunate that because of the WG lurking in our blog and harassing our members on Twitter, Instagram and FB, I couldn’t post some of the commentaries made in the original thread. But oh well. Protecting our original members is our first priority. Remember now: our first rewatch is on Saturday, […]

Throwback Thursday: HP Ep 2 The Additional Doctors
These were my crib notes after Episode 2 was shown last year. Feel free to skip this post. But I found it fun re-reading this because: a. as early as Episode 2, I suggested that Capt Ahn might have a crush on Songhwa. b. as early as Episode 2, my dislike Jang was growing. I […]
