Just Bitching: Kdrama Pet Peeve #15

Head Wounds. Okay. I understand that there’s always a hospital scene in kdramas because, like Subway and Starbucks, drama writers get a kickback from the Hospital PPL. But directors should work on their head traumas. 1. First, the wound site. The wrapped-around bandage is gleaming white except for this spot of bloodstain conveniently located on […]

Smart Bitches: BKB first nominee

We already have our first nominee for the BKB of the Week award — courtesy of my friend and blogger mslee1107.  Thank you!! He’s a tsundere male! Surly on the outside, sweety in the inside.  He certainly qualifies as a boyfriend material that we kdrama aficionados love and recognize. Character Name: Kim TaeHo (KTH) Actor’s […]

Jugglers: Episode 11

Episode 11 Title: Is The Past Really Powerless? These are my commentaries. Nothing profound, nothing serious, nothing mind-blogging. Just my ordinary notes in keeping with this ordinary episode. 1. Sex is not a four-letter word. When you’re a couple, it’s normal to desire that physical intimacy. Thus, I don’t get why CW doesn’t want YY […]

Hwayugi: Yellow Umbrellas

Yellow Umbrellas. This scene from Hwayugi was cute but… I’m tired of yellow umbrellas. If I were to believe in kdramas, the only choice of color for umbrellas for girls in love is yellow.  Where’s the diversity?? I want a clear umbrella so I can see where I’m going.  See these? From Love Rain: From Splash […]

Just Bitching: Gong Yoo’s bro

Today I discovered there exist some things even more humiliating than being friend-zoned. Like being “bro-zoned” and you’re a girl.  soompi article: https://www.soompi.com/2018/01/08/gong-yoo-jung-yoo-mi-respond-marriage-reports/ If I were Jung Yoo Mi, I’d give that “nameless source” at our agency this present on Valentine’s Day for this comment: “The marriage rumors between Gong Yoo and Jung Yoo Mi aren’t […]

Hwayugi: Episode 3

When it comes to developing memorable fantasy-romcom characters, I find that nobody can beat the Hong sisters. They’re a perfect example of why two heads are better than one. Give them an ordinary tale or legend, and they can twist it into something unpredictable, unexpected, and unforgettable. I’ve always credited their sisterhood for creating a […]

Jugglers: Episode 1, notes 1

Bitch notes. I’m releasing my notes as-is as I don’t have much time to make these pretty. Hopefully, they’ll make sense. -edited to add: Still uncertain if CW is the Managing Director of In-House Video at this YB branch, but also the (missing, unheard of, silent) VP at the Seoul headquarters of YB. That “new” […]

Just Bitching: Kdrama Pet Peeves

#3 Pet Peeve Because it’s a Sunday, and I’m supposed to be angelic today, my incoming vent is limited to mere 99,999 words. Sleepwear. For the life of me, I don’t understand why characters in kdramas don’t wear nightclothes. They have expensive phones, 16 coats and 16 bags (a different one for each episode), but […]

Jugglers: Episode 1

Episode 1 Title: Wherever the boss is, whatever happens… the jugglers appear lol. I’m the boss around here — and the juggler — so this post is still in the pipeline. **************** As I’ve said to Oppa’s Goddess (OG), I refrained from posting on Jugglers’ Episode 1 because I typically include spoilers in my comments […]
