To many, it’s a foregone conclusion that MooYoung is the baby’s father. After watching Episode 14, I see why. However, I can also understand why the Anybody-but-MooYoon camp insists that it’s not over yet. I see their side of the story, too. So what I’m going to do now is go over the conversations among […]
100 Days My Prince: Pt 2, Episode 14
To continue. 8. The sword I liked how the camera shifted focus from foreground to background to remind the viewers of the pending doom. The sword obviously prefigured the bloody sword that WonDeuk would be pointing his bloody sword at HongShim. We all remember the shaman’s words but I’ll post them again. I wonder if it’s […]
100 Days My Prince: Episode 14
Only two more episodes!! I feel like I’m running a marathon here. 1. HongShim’s real reason for staying in Hanyang, part 2 It’s funny how reversals in this kdrama can happen in a span of 30 minutes. Last episode, HongShim left her fake father in a huff and now she was returning home in a […]
100 Days My Prince: Who’s the REAL Palpoongi?
Oli and I were discussing whether HongShim knew who LeeYul was so I thought a follow-up might be in order. Advisory: this post has lots of pics. *********************** I’m a forgiving bitch. I can overlook a lot of the stupid things that this writer has done, like -confusing us about the fake father’s lies on […]
100 Days My Prince: The Troll’s Riddle
You’ve been trolled! 😈 I think there are two solutions here: the convoluted, preposterous answer concocted by the scriptwriter to troll the audience and the simplified version that I’m going to propose. The Troll’s Answer The first one is explained by goyangi. (Thanks, goyangi!) Her explanation follows the script. I’m going to paraphrase what she […]
100 Days My Prince: Episode 13 Long Version
I’m behind an episode but I must jot down my thoughts on this episode before continuing on. 1. Swoon-moment: the bundle of WonDeuk’s clothes Lol. In my previous post “On Lee Yul, Episode 12” I joked about burning WonDeuk’s clothes in one big bonfire, if I had been in HongShim’s shoes, just to show him […]
100 Days My Prince: Fan Service Again ❤️
Hey, you know I don’t monetize this blog, right? I’ve no ads here and this blog is for me and you. I’m not posting KyungSoo’s gifs here to attract more traffic. I’m doing it as a fan service (ha) to my friends, nrllee and oli, and the quiet ones. I happened to find them on […]
Where Stars Land: Fox Bride Star Review
Episode 5. Okay, I thought I could give this show at least 6 episodes before quitting, but nope, watching the first 26 minutes of this Episode 5 is like going through Dante’s nine circles of hell only to find that there’s no end in sight. This is the absolute the worst kdrama on the current […]
100 Days My Prince: Did YiSeo Recognize LeeYul?
Just as I was bugged by LeeYul’s willingness to close his eyes to visions of HongShim in Episode 12, I’m buggered that HongShim couldn’t see that WonDeuk was the child she met in the forest. LeeYul easily recognized her as that child YiSeo all grown-up after just spotting her once on the bridge, admiring a […]
100 Days My Prince: Episode 13 Quick Take
I only watched for two things in this Episode 13. I wanted to see that we had: 1) our proper closure at the beginning of the show, hahaha. It happened just as he envisioned! She disappeared from HIS sight…and he didn’t even have to close his eyes. Joking aside, I’m going to admit that I […]
100 Days My Prince: On Lee Yul, Ep 12
Part 4, last installment (I’ll have to reserve the poison post for some other time.) By now, my faithful eight followers and readers must be exhausted by all my posts. Tough, girls! Welcome to my obsessive blog! 12. Lee Yul Although this whole Episode 12 showed us Lee Yul’s adjustment to palace life, the few […]
The Third Charm: Episode 5
Now that I understand where the writer and director intend to go with this narrative (the trophy vs stuffed toy metaphor I explained earlier), it’s easier for me to focus on the good things, and to forgive the irritating things that the lead characters are doing to sabotage their relationships. We could easily catalog the […]
The Third Charm: The Metaphor
I keep on forgetting to write about this scene so I’ll post this as is. This scene from Episode 1 is a metaphor of their relationship. They were coming home from their first date at the fairgrounds. The guy JoonYoung (JY) couldn’t eat spicy food but before he could tell YoungJae (YJ), she started raving […]
100 Days My Prince: Fan Service Alert!
lol. This is a public announcement. I’m announcing it so the public will see it, okay? This is supposed to make fans swoon. Apparently, girls fantasize about men rolling up their sleeves to do some manly labor. Like working that millstone. because ooooooooohhhh. Those forearms!!! Seriously now, for me, a massive part of the fun […]
