Takane and Hana: Episode 1, part 1
I know for many of you this dorama (or Japanese drama) isn’t going to be sophisticated enough, and that’s fine. But if I had a young daughter who was beginning to exhibit curiosity about boy-girl relationships, I think this would be a good series to watch together and have a conversation afterwards about dating expectations. […]
River Where the Moon Rises: Ep 11 The Cave Scene
I just finished watching Ep 11 and I think viewers will get confused with the cave scene. Here’s my interpretation on it. The monk brought Dal to his cave where he did his own training. Monk: You’re going to become a clean, white canvas. The toxin in your body, the rotten energy in your mind, […]
River Where the Moon Rises: Eps 11 & 12 Open Thread
The thread is now open for spoilers and discussions. Now that I know who the characters are, the plot direction is easy to anticipate, especially the movements of the evil characters like Go WonPyo.

@nrllee wrote this recap. Thanks, @nrllee. Your snarky side comments were hilarious. I’m just adding my comments here and there, and some screenshots. *********************************** Ep7 She wakes. Frilly curtains. Just as frilly dress. Where was her slinky maroon number?

River Where the Moon Rises: Eps 9 & 10 Fangirling Open Thread
The thread is now open for spoilers and…fangirling. I already watched Ep 9 and here are my quick takes: 1. The new actor Na In Woo is so much better at playing the fool than Jisoo. When he tells Kim So Hyun’s character that he doesn’t mind if they’re married or not, as long as […]

Sisyphus: Bloopers or Easter Bananas
We know what a blooper is. A blooper is a mistake in the filming. It can range from the actor flubbing his lines to props going wrong. “Easter bananas” was coined by WEnchanteur because of my obsession with bananas in Episode 2. The original term is “Easter egg” which means an object or image that […]
