November will be a daunting month for those with an extreme fear of missing out, better known as FOMO. I counted no less than five dramas with engaging storylines to premiere this month. I’ll have to be very picky about which dramas to add to my pile since I still have “Strong Woman Namsoon,” “A […]
Happy Halloween!
This is our time to shine, Bitches! It’s all right to be batty, scary, creepy, and bad to the bone today. source: dress-this-way tumblr Will you watch a horror show tonight?
Bitch Talk: What Are We Watching in October 2023?
Woe is me! Throughout this month, I must resist the temptation of hoarding up – and snacking — on Halloween fun-sized chocolate bars. And as if that isn’t bad enough, I must also resist succumbing to this month’s supply of eye-candy courtesy of kdramaland. 1. Strong Girl Namsoon A spinoff of that hit drama “Strong […]
Happy Chuseok!
Happy Chuseok! Image by freepik I’ll celebrate the Korean thanksgiving tomorrow by going to H-Mart and buying sikhye (sweet rice punch with rice bits), songpyeon (dainty rice cake shaped like a half moon), japchae (glass noodles), and galbijjim (beef short ribs). Hope you can celebrate Chuseok too, even in a small way, wherever you are. […]
Bitch Talk: What Are We Watching in September 2023?
I’m watching “My Lovely Liar” till it ends third week of September. I’m still getting my bellyaches from the comedy of “Behind Your Touch.” (Yes, I’m behind writing my notes but there’s nothing I can do.) I just started “Destined With You” and I might hang around for a while. And I’m still reviewing “Hidden […]
Bitch Talk: What Are We Watching in August 2023?
Boooo. I recently learned that the premiere of Kim Soo Hyun’s drama, “Queen of Tears,” which was slated for July 31, has been pushed back to 2024. Booo. Kim Soo Hyun was last seen in “Psycho But It’s Okay” (2020) so I was eagerly anticipating this new collaboration with Kim JiWon (“My Liberation Notes”). Their […]
Bitch Talk: Zhao LuSi’s Cdramas
Thanks, @agdr03, for the link to Zhao LuSi’s dramas on mydramalist. 2018 1. Cinderella Chef (supporting role) Skip this. There are better cdramas starring Zhao Lusi to watch. 2. Oh! My Emperor (main lead) From what I understood Zhao Lusi plays a 21st century medical intern who mysteriously travels to a world governed by the […]
Bitch Talk: What Are We Watching in July 2023?
For now, I’m watching the sunsets and sunrises since I’m at a beach. My Asian 2023 trip continues but when my hubby and I return to the good ole US, I’ll be watching these dramas. 1. Uncanny Counter 2 Cast: Kim SeJeong (“A Business Proposal”), Jo Byung Kyoo (“Sky Castle”), Yoo Jun Sang (“Alchemy of […]
Bitch Talk: Glitches on the Blog
Heads-up! The blog has been acting up for the past 8 hours. It goes off-line for 20 minutes to an hour, then online for 10 minutes then off-line again. Don’t know why. But it drives me nuts. There are WordPress/Jetpack software engineers paid to manage this platform and fix these glitches. They only have one […]
Bitch Talk: What Are We Watching in June 2023?
Hey! Where did May go? I’ll be traveling in June and part of July so my posts will be sporadic. Have a great summer, y’all! Here’s what on my travel list. 1. King The Land Starring Lee JunHo (we all know who he is) and YoonAh (“Big Mouth” and “The King in Love”) Dear Lee […]
Bitch Talk: The Four Faces of the Ahjumma Kims
@Grace made a comment in the Happy Mother’s Day thread that gave me pause. Actually I have to say this mother of all korean female lead daughters, Kim Mi-Kyung! She is the mother of Dr.Cha, Crash Course in Romance, Hi Bye Mama (again!), 18 Again, a lot of Park MinYoung’s dramas and more. Although I […]
Happy Mother’s Day!
I hope you all had a Happy Mother’s Day, ladies! It’s hard to believe that I can only think of four dramas showcasing good mothers: 1. Reply 1988 (2015): who could forget the three moms of the Ssangmun-dong town? 2. Racket Boys (2021): the male lead, an ex-badminton prodigy, joins his middle school’s all-boys team […]
What Are We Watching in May 2023?
I don’t mind that only a couple of new kdramas are on my radar this month because I still have “Dr Romantic 3,” the cdrama “Till the End of the Moon,” and “Stealer: The Treasure Keeper.” “Stealer” with Joo Won is fun though it seems to be a low-key, low-testosterone, low-budget version of “Healer.” I […]
Bitch Talk: What Are We Watching in April 2023?
I don’t know if this is good news or bad news, but I’ll be back Stateside in a couple of weeks and my next round of travel won’t be till June. This means if I start a drama this month, I’ll be around to finish it before it’s time for me to pack my bags […]
