The thread is open. Frankly speaking, I was exasperated with the female lead, HJ, in Episode 3. HY was right to point out that she was as “clueless and dumb as ever.” In the same way that she was annoyed with him for ignoring her BFF’s letters, I’m annoyed with her for ignoring his nonverbal […]

Only For Love: Open Thread
Ignore me. I’m opening this thread as a reminder to watch this Cdrama starring Dylan Wang, the dude from “Love Between Fairy and Devil” and Bai Lu, one of my favorite Chinese actresses. It’s available on Viki. 36 episodes. (oh dear…) Synopsis from viki. Determined to land a front-page story, reporter Zheng Shu Yi (Bai Lu) […]
My Sweet Mobster: Open Thread
The thread is open. I know I’m late to the party; I’m only on Episode 2 and the series is about to end next week. I don’t know what to expect about the show. The non sequiturs are everywhere. For example, the male lead retired from his thug life to set up a meat production […]
Serendipity’s Embrace: Episode 2 My Highlights
What I like about the hero Kang HuYeong (HY) is that he isn’t in denial about his feelings for Lee HongJu (HJ). The previous episode ended with him hinting at her that he had feelings for her. HY: I’m sorry, but mine has already started to thaw. Outwardly, he was talking about the bag of […]
Falling In Love With You Is the Best Thing I Have Ever Done: 2024 Update
We’ve been waiting for this cdrama ever since “Love O2O” (2016) starring Yang Yang and she-who-must-not-be-named. We thought it would be their comeback show. Falling in Love with You is the Best Thing I Have Ever Done: Yang Yang’s Next Drama??? Falling in Love with You is the Best Thing I Have Ever Done: Coronavirus […]
Serendipity’s Embrace: Episode 1 My First Impressions
I think this is good show to binge-watch when all 8 episodes are out on Viki, but I need a “therapy kdrama” right now so I’m streaming it. My first impressions: 1. The first few minutes of Episode 1 were annoyingly pretentious. For one, the title “Serendipity’s Embrace” is the kind of word salad I […]
Lost You Forever 2: Eps 1 to ?? Open Thread
The thread is open for you, @GB. And for @Kate, too, if she’s around. Are you following this now or holding off until you know for sure who the OTP is? Is it the boring guy or the handsome devil? Enjoy the angst show!

What Are We Watching in July 2024?
I’m sure you all know how crazy it’s been here where I am. To be honest, I can’t say that I was blind-sided or caught off-guard by the turn of events. I see it like a carbuncle that needed to be lanced in order for cure, healing and regrowth to occur. I trust the process […]

Dreaming of a Freaking Fairy Tale: Eps 9 & 10 Open Thread
The last open thread. Let’s enjoy the show!
Dreaming of a Freaking Fairy Tale: Eps 7 & 8 Open Thread
The thread is open. They had a kissing scene already?? Right. I forgot that this show follows a new trend in kdrama to abbreviate the run to 10 or 12 episodes. So far, I welcome the change because I like the faster pace, straightforward plot (e.g., no unnecessary secondary couple’s romance) and instant story development. […]

The thread is open. 2014: Choi Jin Hyuk played a brash prosecutor in “Pride and Prejudice.” 2024: Choi Jin Hyuk plays a brash (or not?) prosecutor in “Miss Night and Day.” I prefer his comic side like in “Zombie Detective.” Episodes: 16 Start Date: Saturday, June 15 Where to watch it: Netflix Network: jTBC Enjoy […]
