A poster at soompi asked why Wannabe Wife would want to hurt WooHyun if she actually wanted him. Her behavior can be viewed as retaliatory as in “Hell hath no fury like a woman scorned.” Or it can be viewed as a “sour grapes” like a child would break a toy so nobody else could […]
Fluttering Alert: On Chun Jung Myung’s Dream Disaster
Did you notice my recurring theme here? lol I keep on finding these excerpts from the same Knowing Brothers episode. I wish I knew what episode this was on so I could watch the whole show. He tells unexpected stories of the ordinary things and he delivers them with a smiling face. Right away, you […]
Fluttering Alert: Ep 13 Heart-Fluttering Moments
Sniff. Sniff. I missed – and I’ll miss — writing these heart-fluttering moments. ************ 1. Longing looks It’s a trope universally accepted in kdramas that when a man is in possession of fine healthy eyes, he must gaze longingly at his woman across a crowded room. They have got to stop meeting in hospitals like […]

And @oli? And yours, @lmangla, if you’re lurking here? Who made the first move?Interesting because this relationship has had a lot of […]
Fluttering Alert: Quick Note on WH’s Dad
I don’t have time to do a Madcap today. I’ve to leave for office pretty soon. But let me assure you all that nothing bad happened in this Episode. In the end, the ex-boyfriend didn’t cause trouble. Wannabe Wife was still stymied and couldn’t cause much trouble. And WooHyung and YooJung quickly got over their YJ’s […]
Fluttering Alert: Scarf Moment
The scarf scene is arguably THE defining moment of this episode. I know the viewers are squealing because it IS kinda sexy… in a good innocent way. Hey! If this kdrama were 50 Shades of Grey, scarves would have a totally different use. Just think bondage. Emotionally, I totally get the romance of deep gazes, […]
Fluttering Alert: Episode 14’s Cliffhanger
She proposed marriage!!!*** The cliffhanger of episode — He’s joking about something… And then she popped the question. Something something that sounded “koronaleyo” And he’s stunned. lol. Geez, louise. This guy! You didn’t bring the ring, and now you let her propose! Just as we predicted. Where’s the bridal shower game again that I posted […]
Fluttering Alert: While Waiting for Ep 13 Subs
Viki has 82% of the show subbed. Hurray!! While waiting for this episode to be fully subbed, we can entertain ourselves with fun and games. (The pessimist in me anticipates another round of separation/stabbing/scandal/noble idiocy, but I don’t care as long as it’s not amnesia.) Go ahead. Do one or two of these. 1. Solve […]
Fluttering Alert: On Chung Jung Myung’s Dating Disaster
I don’t know why his disaster stories strike me as funny. Maybe because he’s self-deprecating and unassuming. Maybe because I expect his life to run more smoothly. Maybe because I would have welcomed him with open arms if he were to jump out of my son’s niece’s closet (I don’t have a daughter, unfortunately). Maybe because he […]
Fluttering Alert: Ep 13 Madcap/Happycap
gif stolen @ameera_ali at soompi. lol. Because we kept our cool last week, we’re rewarded with a reunion from our couple! This will have lots of screenshots so I hope I don’t slow down your internet. Story opens with WooHyun visiting Unnie at the hospital. He sees commotion; doctor and nurses rushing to Unnie’s room. He […]
Fluttering Alert: Ep 13 Newsflash!

Memories of the Alhambra: Eps 3 and 4 from a Gamer’s Mindset
Okay, where shall we begin? (cracking fingers) Gamers. A bit of disclosure here: My only experience of being a gamer is playing Spyro the Dragon. I have zero interest in video games but I bought SuperMario, Age of Empires, and games like that so my sons could invite their friends for sleepovers and have something […]
Fluttering Alert: On Wings and Other Things
Wings: Earlier I mentioned that the father chose Wannabe Wife to be the “wings” for his son when he assumes leadership of the medical foundation. He said, “Chief Director Go Yung Eun is Choego Group’s madam and SeHyuns’ mother. It looks like WooHyun is stealing SeHyun’s spot. You’re like the wings that I put on […]

Yes, I’ll post something on Memories of the Alhambra, Episodes 3 and 4. Sometime this evening. I’m still deciding on my choice of topic. Should […]
