My Demon: Eps 13 & 14 Open Thread

The thread is open. For somebody who hasn’t set foot in Hell, GuWon surely comes to close to it often. Ep 2: He took the acid slash for DoHee. Ep 3: He was beaten up by the gangsters; his head was almost bludgeoned. Ep 5: He fell off the penthouse terrace with DoHee. Ep 7: […]

My Demon: Ep 12 On Bogus Religion

Episode title: The Savior of Destruction The title is an oxymoron. How can someone be considered a savior and protector when he wreaks destruction? To save and protect is the opposite of to destroy and ruin. But oh well…we get who the title refers to. 1. It’s Guwon. His name means “salvation” and DoHee regards […]

Marry My Husband: Ep 4 Quick Takes

This episode is fun especially if you’re Na InWoo’s fan. (side-eyeing @Cleopatra and @Fern) The first three episodes set up the details of the female lead’s world: her cancer and abominable husband in 2023, then her time-travel to 2013. So it’s about time that this fourth episode shifted attention to the other half aka male […]

My Demon: Ep 11 A Paradise of the Ominous

Episode title: A Paradise of the Ominous As I’ve always said, I like titles because they tell me where to focus my attention when I’m writing these commentaries. This episode marks a transition. For me, “a paradise of the ominous” is synonymous with a “calm before the storm.” 1. For GuWon, paradise means the restoration […]

Marry My Husband: Ep 3 Quick Takes

Episode 3 is the type of show I would have loved to watch with @agdr03. With our lowbrow humor, we would have laughed our socks off at many scenes. Like, this one. Though we didn’t see MinHan’s male anatomy, there was no way it could have been intimidating in size. If I were the heroine […]

Marry My Husband: Eps 1 & 2 First Impressions

There’s a whole genre of kdrama that I’m unfamiliar with…by choice. It’s the kdrama with revenge, retribution, and reparation (or the 3 R’s). Examples of this genre include “Vicenzo” (2021), “Remarriage and Desires” (2022) and “Perfect Marriage Revenge” (2023). I’ve avoided these 3 R’s kdramas because, as much as the comeuppance of the villains is […]

The Matchmakers: Ep 14 On Sense and Sensibility

Episode Title: “Those who love more are the strongest.” I’ll circle back to my explanation of the title after I explain my theme for this episode. On sense and sensibility. One of the Jane Austen novels I like is “Sense and Sensibility.” It’s about two sisters: Elinor who exemplifies sense (restraint and good judgment) and […]

The Matchmakers: On the Finale

@BethB, You commented on the “Happy New Year” thread: • The Matchmakers (Viki) – I really liked it, just didn’t love it. I agree with you. I like “The Matchmakers” for these reasons: a) the heroine. She was refreshingly resourceful and reasonable, unlike the heroine in the female lead “Park’s Marriage Contract.” From start to […]

My Demon: Eps 11 & 12 Open Thread

The thread is open. Boooooo. So, Noh SukMin is the devil and not Oppa Ju SeokHoon? I concede that SukMin is the ultimate killing machine, having offed his mother, his partner in crime aka the Psoriasis Guy, and his son (indirectly). But Ju SeokHoon is still not off my Villain List. Let’s enjoy the show.
