Get ready for the final episode! Enjoy the show!
My Liberation Notes: Eps 3 & 4 Open Thread
The thread is now open. I’m watching this show for now because of Mr. Gu. No, I don’t think he’s a serial killer. Since this is kdrama, I think he’s just a stereotypical anti-hero with hyperactive guilty conscience. (Hello, I’m Catholic. I know all about hyperactive guilty conscience.) Why do I like him? Well…definitely not […]
My Liberation Notes: AKA Welmaris’ Lib Notes Eps 1 & 2
I’m posting @Welmaris’ critique here. Thanks, @Welmaris! I’m only adding the gifs. — pm3 My Liberation Notes is written by the same screenwriter as My Mister, which I thought masterfully done. My Mister depicts the lives and tribulations of three brothers and one outsider: an impoverished girl who, as an orphan caring for a disabled […]
Easter Blessings!
Easter Sunday’s Gospel. It’s from the book of John 20: 1-9. On the first day of the week, Mary of Magdala came to the tomb early in the morning, while it was still dark, and saw the stone removed from the tomb. So she ran and went to Simon Peter and to the other disciple […]

Twenty-five Twenty-One: Ep 16 On First Loves
It’s a sad fact that all the hue and cry about the ending overshadowed a good discussion on the theme of the drama. The genre of the drama is a coming-of-age story. The theme of the drama is first love. From Episode 3 Yurim: You were my first love! So you should do that much […]

Legally Romance: Ep 2 Things to Watch Out For
This is for @agdr03. I’m trying to convince her to watch this show. @agdr03, you can thank me (and @birdie007 who originally recommended it to us on the blog) later. 🙂 My commentary on Ep 1 is here: Legally Romance: Open Thread For Episode 2, I’ll just explain the current timeline so when the heroine, […]
Business Proposal: Ep 10 On Best Girlfriends
One thing that rarely fails to impress me in kdramas is the infinite ways that a couple can go on a date. For instance, there’s a phone date of Park Shin Hye and Jung Yong Hwa in “You’re Beautiful.” PSH’s character Minam spends a day in the skincare mecca in Seoul, Myeongdeong, but she’s unfamiliar […]
Business Proposal: Kang TaeMoo’s Appreciation Club
We have another one Hall of Famer for our “Bitches’ Best Drama Boyfriends.” There are three current members. Xiao Nai from “Love O2O” (2016) inducted in 2019. Lee Gon from “The King: Eternal Monarch” (2020) inducted in 2020. Nam Dosan from “Start-Up” (2020) inducted in 2020/21. The latest addition is none other than…(drumrolls please) Kang […]
Business Proposal: Ep 11 Quick Takes
“How do I love thee? Let me count the ways.” Let me count how many times Taemoo has demonstrated his love for Hari to the three people who mattered the most: his grandpa and her parents. Grandpa: Did you get into a fake relationship because you didn’t want to go on blind dates? How could […]
Business Proposal: Eps 11 & 12 Open Thread
The final episodes are here!!! What I expect: a. wedding bells for Hari and Taemoo. I want the whole fluffy, happily-ever-after ending. I want to see her proudly announce to the whole world that he’s her husband to make up for her forced confession that he’s her boyfriend. source: deokmi’s tumblr b. bed scene during […]
2D1N: Ep 118 Open Thread
The thread is open for us, @nrllee and @Fern. I saw this on twitter. Ravi says that despite the show being physically exhausting, he and the other guys can carry on as they “like each other and are at ease around each other.” That’s a high compliment for Na InWoo since he just joined the […]
Twenty-Five Twenty-One: Eps 15 & 16 Final Open Thread
Finally, the end is here and people can see the light. Bittersweet is a most overused adjective to describe this show. Please use it sparingly. Happiness, like first love, doesn’t last forever. But nothing says tragedy like wallowing in regrets and might-have-beens. No plot holes, please. Enjoy the show!
