Minimum Viable Product: A product with enough features to attract early adopters and validate a product idea Explicitly, it’s Tarzan. Don’t you just love the scene when it stopped in time to avoid the poor kitten into a roadkill? The inspectors thought it stopped because of a “ghost” and Dosan — who didn’t believe […]

Bitch Talk: Should We Watch These?
It’s December! Here are five kdramas for our scrutiny…errr…consideration. 1. The Uncanny Counter source: allkpop Synopsis from Wikipedia: It is based on a webtoon of the same name and tells the story of demon hunters called “Counters” who have come to the earth posing as employees of a noodle restaurant in order to capture evil […]
Start-Up: Ep 15 A Smile or a Smirk?
Sorry. I only have time to write this. After going back and forth with Ella (thanks, Ella) on JP’s character, I say this: Yes, I like that JP let Dosan know that Dalmi *might* like him. JP: Have you no pride? Dosan: Why are you getting angry? JP: I’m taking the letter and the tree. […]
Start-Up: On “Sailing Without a Map”
This is my “Aha!” moment. In another thread, my good friend @hanufohane asked us, “which scene/ episode was your Dodal’s AHA moment?” Link: Start-Up: The AHA! Moments Of course the petal scene was important, too. But I was looking for something more. Something that was embedded in the first episodes that cannot be THAT obvious. 🙂 […]
Start-Up: Eps 15 & 16 Open Thread
Final episodes! Let’s savor the moment. credit: damn-salvatore’s tumblr Let’s enjoy the show!
Start-Up: The AHA! Moments
@Hafunohane asks: i personally have known it’s gonna be dodal endgame super early on, not bcoz of the posters leads etc (an inexperienced kdrama viewer here) but bcoz of that scene with the forrest gump-like cherry blossom petal trip from DM to DS. just curious: which scene/ episode was your Dodal’s AHA moment? Please share […]
Start-Up: **2nd** Parody of a Fangirl
Many of you have requested the password for my original post “Ep 13 Parody of a Fangirl.” A password, by definition, restricts the access of users. I purposely created “Ep 13 Parody of a Fangirl” to be a safe space for this blog’s posters after I observed that many of them are thoroughly confounded by […]

Start-Up: One Long Road
This is a good episode to talk about NoonGil. If you take out all the side characters like JP and Injae, and the side stories like Grandma’s dimming vision, and Chulsan’s dating life, and simply focus on the main leads, Dosan and Dalmi, then you’ll see the whole entire journey of Dosan back to Dalmi […]

Start-Up: A Good Script
“If I told you once, I’ve told you a thousand times.” If you’re one of my 10 followers, you know that I’m boringly repetitive. I often tell you that a good script pushes you to go deeper than the “feels” of the story. Responding to a kdrama at the “feels” level – like watching a […]
Start-Up: Ep 14 On Tarzan (Again!)
Another question. This time from @LikesKdramas: I can somewhat understand DalMi didn’t want to give DoSan explanationg about her feelings while he was nursing a grievance but I think it would have been better for her to admit her feelings for DoSan that night by the cabin. But I don’t understand why was she trying […]
Start-Up: Episode 14 Elevator Talk
I was going to delay writing about this but… Ella asked: @grace yes the first time when she came to the rooftop apartment was because of InJae pushing her but after the talk with DoSan, she apologized and she left almost immediately. Then jump to her going after DoSan in the country side but why […]
