My Girlfriend Is a Gumiho: Episode 13
Oh, My Girlfriend Is a Gumiho just kicked it up a notch. Yeah, I cried like a baby in Episode 13. Ratings-wise, this week was a real hit, since Baker King is out of the picture. Numbers shot up to 15.2% for Episode 13, then even more to 19.2% for Episode 14, which aired back... More »

Baker King Cinderella: a mashup
A parody video has been making the rounds, which mashes up the plot of two KBS hit dramas this year, Cinderella’s Sister and Baker King Kim Tak-gu. The 10-minute clip was broadcast during the Chuseok week on KBS’s Big Star X File, described as a “hyper-speed makjang mashup mini-drama Baker King Cinderella.” In it, the... More »

Sungkyunkwan Scandal: Episode 6
Dear Moony and Yummy Faction members, Thank you for your peaceful and harmonious alliance. It is indeed near impossible to choose between two very attractive men, and no one should be forced into that situation (at least not in K-drama Land).

Her segment is called Boy Meets Girl, and she’ll play a science genius who is admitted to a science high school at the age of 12. Her Ji-wan character... More »

Playful Kiss: Episode 7
This episode had more than one plotline going on, but there was a general arc to the emotional progressions, so overall I was happy with it. I’m liking the characters more and more, and although He-ra is in the role of the hateful romance-spoiler, Lee Shi-young is playing her with this interesting mix of confidence,... More »

With no competition, Playful Kiss improves its ratings
Playful Kiss finally rose out of the 3% range for its seventh episode today, upticking to 6.3%. In that it more than doubled its ratings from its last episode, 2.8%, that’s good news. But a few caveats come therewith: Perhaps it’s a hollow victory because it had no scripted programming competition, with SBS and KBS... More »

Sungkyunkwan Scandal: Episode 5
If the first two episodes were ruled by the ever charming and forever bored Gu Yong-ha, then episodes 3-6 were completely dominated by Moon Jae-shin aka Guh-ro. His bad boy/good boy persona has most fangirls swooning, including me! Not to take away from Yong-ha, who is just as cute and charming as always, but I... More »
