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 […]

My Roommate is a Gumiho: Open Thread
Updated: 5/17/2021 He quoted from “Love in the Time of Cholera” by Gabriel Garcia Marquez, but he made up the last line, “He could not understand why anyone wouldn’t fall in love with her.” 🙂 The quote should be, “To him she seemed so beautiful, so seductive, so different from ordinary people, that he could not […]

Doom at Your Service: Ep 5 On “Geunyang”
If I were to name this episode, I’d call it “Geunyang” or “Just Because.” Thanks, @Cleopatra, for writing the subs from Viki. This made my work a lot easier. A. Opening Scene: The introduction of “Geunyang” MM: I told you that you won’t be able to love me. Everyone either resents me or wants me. […]
Bossam: On Loyalty
Oldtimers on this blog know that romance isn’t the only focal point of discussion here. In my view, a serious screenwriter is one who has explored a specific concept or idea about the world — other than “love is great!” – then seeks to impart this insight to his audience. As viewers, we can reciprocate […]
