Doctor Slump: On Acting vs Camera Work
Let’s take a closer look at something @koalabear mentioned in the Eps 9 & 10 thread. Thanks, @koalabear. I think that Kyung Min will get his comeuppance. I still am suspicious that he had something to do with how that mafia uncle was able to bribe that nurse of JW’s clinic to cooperate with the […]
On Technically-Not-A-Villain Characters
Many moons ago, a question was raised in my bookclub to name a character who wasn’t the villain of the story, but technically could be viewed as one because his/her actions consistently put the protagonist in harm’s way. Dumbledore of the Harry Potter series was a favorite in my group. Why? Not only was he […]
The Impossible Heir: Open Thread
The thread is open. Anybody with access to Disney+ and other streaming site showing “The Impossible Heir,” please update us. I’d like to know whether this kdrama is worth reviewing or not. Muchas gracias! Starring Lee JunYoung (“May I Help You?”) as the illegitimate son of the chairman of some conglomerate. He teams up with […]

An Incurable Case of Love: The Epilogues
I heard that Netflix didn’t show the epilogues. You can find them here: https://blitzfansub.com/category/love-lasts-forever/ Whenever you can, please thank the independent subber and show appreciation for his/her hard work. It would be our loss should the subber take them all down or post them behind a wall. Kindly report anytime you see his/her work being […]
What Are We Watching in March 2024?
Listen! Do you hear that sound? That’s the “giant sucking sound” of kdrama viewers being swept into this juggernaut of a drama, “Queen of Tears.” “Queen of Tears” This seems to be a reverse-Cinderella story. The female lead is royalty while the male lead is the Cinderella-man. Their marital life isn’t the happily-ever-after ending they […]
Doctor Slump: Eps 9 & 10 Open Thread
The thread is open. source: xiaolanhua’s tumblr I like this scene for a few reasons: one, he wasn’t a mean drunk, two, she didn’t take advantage of his drunken state to molest him, (ha!) and three, he doubled down on telling her that he liked her. His moves were so confusing. He was flirting with […]
Doctor Slump: Ep 6 On “Some” Relationships
Reposting this before I forgot that I had it on password-protect. Sorry. –pm3 🌸🌸🌸🌸🌸🌸🌸🌸🌸🌸🌸🌸🌸🌸🌸🌸🌸🌸🌸🌸 Although HaNeul made clear from the introductory narration that “ambivalence” was the theme of the episode, I think we were shown how this “ambivalence” converted into a “some” between her and JungWoo. Here’s her monologue. HaNeul: Six years of college. A […]

B3tch Talk: On Scene Transitions
Don’t mind me. I’m organizing my notes from this Youtube video. According to Studiobinder, there are nine ways to seamlessly connect scenes together. Whenever I can, I’m getting examples from the show I’m currently watching, “Doctor Slump.” 1. Fade – when a shot fades or “dissolves” to or from a solid color – solid color: […]
An Incurable Case of Love: Open Thread
I just learned that this dorama (jdrama) was recently added on Netflix. For now, the old posts for this jdrama can be found either under its original Japanese name, “Koi wa Tsuzuku yo Doko Made mo” or its alternate English title, “Love Last Forever.” When I have time, I’ll update the categories. Anyway, this is […]
Doctor Slump: Ep 8 On Zero-Sum Fallacy
In my write-up for Episode 7, I explained how the “kidney bean incident” distorted JungWoo’s perception of life and left him needing affirmation. In this episode, I say it’s a “zero-sum” mentality that warps HaNeul’s worldview and causes her to self-isolate. Let’s begin with her brother BaDa’s long monologue about her. I didn’t think it […]
