I’m not watching this right now since I can’t fit it in my schedule. I saw this gif however and it reminded me of my sons since they played football. I might move this up my queue because of the sports. Is the male lead or the secondary male lead playing football? I’m guessing he’s […]
Flower Crew: Joseon Marriage Agency Ep 8, part 2
First part is here: Flower Crew: Joseon Marriage Agency Ep 8, part 1 Let’s continue with the questions. 4. Isn’t Gaedong the worst female character out there? Whiny, naggy, and flirtatious? Why does she keep kissing Ma Hoon? And I just hate how the writer and director destroyed my favorite actress. Nope. I disagree with that […]
Tale of Nokdu: But Can He Kiss??
I don’t want to invade Jang Dong Yoon’s private life. What he does, romantically, in real life, is his own business and none of our beeswax. However, since we’re all missing Tale of Nokdu, let’s amuse ourselves by dreaming of our favorite kiss scene for his character, Nokdu. We’ll see how our expectations line up […]
Flower Crew: Joseon Marriage Agency Ep 8, part 1
updated 10/15/2019: Part 2 is here: Flower Crew: Joseon Marriage Agency Ep 8, part 2 *****************8 Questions. Questions. Questions. I heartily agree that the plot of this kdrama isn’t the best. However, it’s not the worst either. In my critical opinion, the kdrama most deserving of virtual peanuts thrown at it from the gallery is Vagabond. […]

Vagabond: Eps 7 & 8 @katakwasabi’s Comment
@katakwasabi, you posted it this as a comment, but I’m re-posting it here on the blog because it’s easier than me ditto-ing everything. Thanks! — packmule3 ********************************** I read since it’s a husband and wife writer pair, we will get a show from both male and female perspectives. But….I don’t really see it yet. I personally […]
Flower Crew: Joseon Marriage Agency Ep 7
The title of this episode is Second Chance: Mint. I see why the theme is about second chances because all the characters had a do-over. Let’s go over them. 1. Lee Soo The obvious one was the King. The cliffhanger showed Lee Soo pounding on the door and interrupting a critical moment between Hoon and […]
Flower Crew: Joseon Marriage Agency Ep 6
I’ll go over four scenes quickly. One, the kissing scene: It’s anti-climactic now knowing that she was the one who kissed him. Am I being sexist? The thrill was lost because Gaedong, not Hoon, maneuvered the kiss. This is not an issue of women empowerment for me. When it comes to watching a romcom, I […]
Tale of Nokdu: On Being a Couple, continued
Blame my twinge of conscience on my Catholic upbringing. Here’s the half-a-point I promised On Being a Couple. 4.5. Eating If Yulmo wasn’t the second lead, I would fall for his gift-bearing ways in a big way. Hey, I’m the bitch who can be bribed with virtual chocolate chip cookies, right? So, it’s very sweet […]
Tale of Nokdu: Eps 3 & 4 On Being a Couple
What I love about these episodes is we’re beginning to see a pattern in their relationship. I’ll limit myself to three, four, hmmm…let’s make it four-and-half ways to be more interesting. 1. An accomplice She bails him out when he’s in trouble. She ends up being his accomplice in his shenanigans. How many times did […]
Vagabond: Eps 7 & 8 Post Spoilers Here
Please post your rants, raves, theories, and analyses for Episodes 7 and 8 here. Let’s be alert for scenes involving the President’s Secretary, Yun Hangki. He should be eliminating that ineffectual President who can’t think for himself and behaves like the lapdog of the Prime Minister. If looks could kill, somebody would be dead by […]
Vagabond: Episodes 5 & 6 Review
My weekly review of Vagabond is my public service announcement to raise awareness of the pros and cons (mostly cons, lol) of this kdrama. If you can’t deal with criticisms, please click exit on your keyboard. 1. Who’s Shadow? No. It isn’t the boss of Haeri, Min Jaesik. As Gang said, Min Jaesik is a […]
Flower Crew: Joseon Marriage Agency Ep 5 Highlights
I’m glad that the writer organizes the story around a theme and that theme is made clear in the title. For this episode, the title is “Secret Love: Anemone”. 1. King’s secret love This is self-explanatory. Lee Soo loves Gaedong but he’s keeping it a secret. He knows very well that to reveal her identity […]
