My Demon: Ep 4 Sweet But Dangerous
This is why I give the show 8 episodes to grow on me. Unless there’s a fatal flaw, I can get used to it. Here are my highlights. 1. The backstory of Madam Ju’s eldest child, Noh Sukmin a. 12 years ago, he killed someone while he was driving drunk and went to his mother, […]

My Demon: Eps 5 & 6 Open Thread
The thread is open. I like that he has a valid excuse to grab her wrist. He needs to access his demonic power which is sealed like a tattoo on her wrist. source: ingukk’s tumblr I also like this umbrella scene. source: ingukk’s tumblr It wasn’t captured by the gifs, but the director made sure […]
Castaway Diva: Ep 4 2008 vs 2022
Ostensibly, this episode is about RanJoo competing with her former self, or as the emcee hyped it, an aging star battling with a millennium diva. Most viewers will assume that’s what the title “2008 vs 2022” is referring to. I want you, however, to consider other possibilities. 1. For BoGyeol, he wanted no competition – […]
A Good Day to Be a Dog: Eps 9 & 10 Open Thread
The thread is open. Let me post the gifs for their kiss. @agdr03, this is for you. source: yesdramas’ tumblr What do you think? I’m giving it a score of 6 out of 10. I deducted points because of: a. the lack of sophistication and suave-ness with the landing. Don’t rush it, Cha EunWoo! b. […]

Moon in the Day: Ep 10 A Quick Note
Two valid complaints about this drama, and my response. 1. “The story feels disjointed.” Yes, even I can see that it’s disjointed. However, I say that it’s INTENTIONAL that everything feels fragmented at this point and it’s actually a sign of a well-crafted script. You see, we’re supposed to feel the onslaught of revelations. We […]
The Matchmakers: Ep 8 My Notes
I’ll be quick. 1. The marriage profiles Because the last Episode 7 featured the profiles of the Crown Prince (CP) and the eldest Maeng sister (HaNa), we are suddenly made aware of a possible match brewing between the two. It’s a match which frankly disturbs my modern 21st century mindset given the CP’s young age. […]

Castaway Diva: Ep 11 On Givers and Takers
Now’s as good a time as any to get this pet peeve off my chest. My one big problem with many recappers is that often they’re just takers. They don’t GIVE: meaning to the scenes, context to the dialogue, cinematography or mise-en-scene, explanation of the themes, or insight into a fundamental human truth. They simply […]
Unexpected Business in California: Open Thread
Ignore me. This is my bookmark. I must remind myself that my favorite PD Yu HoJin filmed this variety show in Monterey, California. His usual stars, Jo InSung and Cha TaeHyun, were with him to manage a small Korean store. It’s on kshow123.tv. I wish Viki would carry it, though. Here’s PD Yu being interviewed […]
Love Me, Love My Voice: Eps 1 to 6 Open Thread
The thread is open. The synopsis from Viki is too long but this is the gist of it. The female lead is a senior in college. She composes and creates music. Her specialty seems to be historical (or traditional? classical?) music genre. Her idol is a “voice dubbing god.” She wishes to collaborate with him […]
