Alchemy of Souls: Ep 19 The Hwansu Move
I’ll occasionally post about Episode 19. We have time since Season 2 won’t begin till next month. 🌸🌸🌸🌸🌸🌸🌸🌸🌸🌸🌸🌸🌸🌸🌸🌸🌸🌸🌸🌸 Naksu: I saw an illusion when I first received the energy of the ice stone. She told me that no one can truly own the ice stone and that you can only use its power. It’s very […]
May I Help You: Eps 7 & 8 Open Thread
The thread is open. Here in this blog, we’re good at spotting boyfriend material. source: junghaesin’s tumblr I didn’t think that a romcom with death as theme and funeral parlor as setting could work, but it’s working here. For me, this drama’s message is this: although our days are numbered, we see eternity in the […]
Alchemy of Souls: Ep 20 The Importance of Eyes
Of all drama sites covering “Alchemy of Souls,” I believe Bitchesoverdramas is the only one who consistently called the lead female Naksu. That’s because I made a judgment call early on never to forget that Naksu’s soul – as well as conscience, will, mindset, determination, and ego – is in charge of MuDeok’s actions. Except […]
May I Help You: Ep 6 On Sora’s Regret
This drama presented an excellent perspective on living with someone who has Alzheimer’s so I’m copying Sora’s monologue here as a reminder. Sora: What I regret the most is every day I would ask her “Grandma, who am I?” Trying to make sure that she hasn’t forgotten me. Grandma struggled so hard every time. What […]
May I Help You: Ep 6 On the Way I Console You
The subs in the Watchasian site translated the title as “Method of Consolation” but amazon prime subbed it as “The way I console you.” I prefer the latter version because it sounds personalized, and it’s line with the subject of this drama which is personal service. For the record, here are the titles of the […]
Bitch Talk: On Spoilers
When I write my “First Impressions” or critique an episode, I’ve zero qualms whatsoever about mentioning spoilers. Therefore, if you don’t like spoilers, please do yourself a favor and watch the drama BEFORE reading this blog — or searching the internet for information about the drama, for that matter. To me, the key to enjoying […]
May I Help You: Ep 5 On Misunderstanding and Prejudice
Just six points (the seventh is self-explanatory). 1. Kim TaeHee is an ER doctor. Surprise. Surprise. To me, there are four noteworthy things from the opening scene. a. That way TaeHee clutched his arm while he was performing CPR was odd. I don’t think he broke his arm because his arm looked fine when he […]
May I Help You: Eps 1 & 2 First Impressions
That this kdrama revolves around death should have been banished it to my “Makjang: Do Not Watch” dustbin. But I’m recommending this drama for those viewers who became dispirited from our last foray into the drama “Little Women.” Without a doubt, LW had top-notched direction, cinematography, and acting. But it left me feeling listless. You […]
Love in Contract: Ep 14 Quick Update
I dropped this drama. The male lead doesn’t have a prayer of winning my heart when I can easily cite a litany of reasons why he’s unappealing to me. I find that he’s guilty of countless hesitations. He can’t muster up the courage to admit his feelings. It’s been frustrating to watch his constant denial. […]
Alchemy of Souls: Ep 20 My Notes
My notes. I hope they’re still useful despite being two months late. 1. The Crown Prince vs Jin Mu JM: I will find the sword that can help you destroy Jang Uk. I am the only one who can protect you by getting rid of the King’s Star. Note that by “sword,” Jin Mu doesn’t […]
Call My Agent: Open Thread
The thread is open. I know it’s the wrong gif. But I just want to feast my eyes on somebody goofy for a change. Let’s enjoy the show.
Bitch Talk: What Are We Watching in November 2022?
To be honest, I don’t know how many of these new dramas I will have time to watch since I’m still on my business trip. I’m currently watching “May I Help You?” — which deals with the heavy topic of death. I find however that the kdrama is the soul-cleansing that I need after “Little […]
A Familiar Stranger: My Notes & Open Thread
Thanks, Table122000, for bringing this Cdrama to our attention. This is the kind of Cdrama I like: short, sweet, with a happily married couple with children. For October, my must watch drama is mini C drama A Familiar Stranger. It’s being subbed at Viki. You can also watch it with quality subs at Huace TV […]
