The World Cup begins Friday, June 11, and the final is scheduled for Sunday, July 11. (Here’s the full schedule.) Until the Round... More »

Coffee House: Page 7
What a fun episode. I was rolling with laughter at some parts, and also feeling loads of sympathy at others — this drama has managed to make everyone pretty darned likable, in my opinion. I know there have been a lot of heated comments pitting the two actresses (and characters) against each other, which (sadly)... More »

On the golf course with Birdie Buddy’s cast
The first thing I thought when seeing these photos from Birdie Buddy was, Thank god the dreadlocks are gone. Maybe with that monstrosity out of the way, we’ll be able to focus more on the plot and the drama’s other qualities? The golf drama starring UEE, Lee Da-hee, and Lee Yong-woo is filming much of...

Cinderella’s Sister: Episode 20 (Final)
I don’t know if it’s me, but I’m just not hitting it off with finales this time around. [It is SO NOT just you. --javabeans] It’s just, when you think about it…you’ve spent sixteen, or TWENTY friggin episodes in the will-they-or-won’t-they-oh-god-they-won’t-even-get-close, and speak!-please-for-the-love-of-all-that-is-holy-speak! So it’s not asking for too much to be rewarded at the... More »
