May I Help You: Eps 13 & 14 Open Thread
The thread is open. I’m still watching this. I’m just behind on my write-ups because I had to add “Unlock the Boss,” “Forbidden Marriage,” and “Alchemy of Souls 2” on my “To be reviewed” pile. gifs from junghaesin’s tumblr source: junghaesin’s tumblr Let’s enjoy the show.
May I Help You: Ep 7 Rewatch, Thurs Dec 8
The thread is open, @agdr03. We haven’t figured out the time. Will 9:30 PM work for you? It’ll be 5:30 AM here. Unfortunately, I can’t do nights this week and the next. It’s that time of the year for office parties, winter galas, and holiday get-togethers. My hubby and I coordinate our social calendars, but we […]
May I Help You: Eps 11 & 12 Open Thread
The thread is open. Yes, I know I’m missing my Ep 10 review. I’ll work on it after my dinner engagement tonight. gifs from becomeundone’s tumblr source: becomeundone’s tumblr With 6 episodes left, I’m sure we’re on track to see the rehabilitation of TaeHee. I often question whether this steady diet of romantic kdramas set […]
May I Help You: Ep 9 The Letter That I Can’t Send
Although the title of this episode suggests one unsent letter, I believe more than one letter was unsendable. Let me see now. 1. There’s that letter from the high school girl. DongJoo: Is there nothing you want to ask me? Girl: I’m fine. Everything’s fine. But there’s one thing I regret. Sixteen. DongJoo: What? Girl: […]

I’m putting this thread back up on top again so it’s easier to locate. 🌸🌸🌸🌸🌸🌸🌸🌸🌸🌸🌸🌸🌸🌸🌸🌸🌸🌸🌸🌸 The thread is open. Gifs from mostlyfate’s tumblr. source: mostlyfate’s tumblr What’s up with this guy?

May I Help You: Ep 8 The Broken Promise
A review of Episode 8 isn’t really necessary since the drama is easy to understand, but I’m just being obsessive. 1. The prologue The prologue did a great job of telling us what to expect from the episode we’re about to watch. TaeHee’s family was proudly celebrating his graduation. His uncle Vincent got beaten up […]
May I Help You: Ep 7 A Girl Showed Up
Just five points so I don’t repeat myself when I comment on Fern’s post later. 1. Coffee metaphor The ex-GF ChungHa remembered the time when they ordered coffee. He ordered ice for her coffee then told her to just order iced coffee next time. Ex: “Why can’t you be like this?” You have no in-between. […]
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 […]
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 […]
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 […]
