Sisyphus: Ep 16 My Final Take

This is my take. Don’t worry if it doesn’t jibe with yours. We can have different interpretations of the ending. 1. The Sisyphean loop is over. Taesul and Seohae got the happy ending they wanted.

As a child, Sigma set great store by his artwork. He thought drawing was his superpower […]

Sisyphus: Eps 11 & 12 Review

Without further ado. A. Mr. Park He has a doppelganger who’s still alive. If Sigma arrived in 2001, and Mr Park was one in that group of first time-travelers, then Mr. Park arrived around 2001, too. That means he’s been avoiding his doppelganger for 20 years. 1. I like that SeoHae took him to task […]

We know what a blooper is. A blooper is a mistake in the filming. It can range from the actor flubbing his lines to props going wrong. “Easter bananas” was coined by WEnchanteur because of my obsession with bananas in Episode 2. The original term is “Easter egg” which means an object or image that […]
