Dr. Champ: Episode 10
Such a bitter win So, if I just continue with my first idyllic love introduced in episode 8’s recap, this one was like finding your boyfriend holding hands with your best friend. Whom he hated. The same day he had said he loved you, and bought you a puppy. What in the nine circles of... More »

Secret Garden sold abroad before premiere
Upcoming weekend drama Secret Garden has already been sold abroad, more than two weeks before its premiere date. Looks like the star-studded combo of Hyun Bin and Ha Ji-won was enough to get it sold on name recognition alone. I know I’ll be tuning in to the first week just based on the cast. Well,... More »

Kim Hye-soo accessorizes fall fashion with dirt
WTF? I…can’t even begin to describe this photo shoot. I’m going to go with: Zombie Twins Fresh Out of the Grave. Right? Perhaps the zombies had on nice dresses before becoming zombie-fied, but now they’re a hot mess. As most zombies are. As if being a vampire wasn’t enough. She’s got a flare for the... More »

Joseon X-Files: Episode 8
Finally, we get a deeper look into the mysterious motives of Yoon-yi — or at least one of them. And tied into that is a nice way of expressing the romantic angle through the plot without actually focusing heavily on romance. Episode 7 and 8 are really two halves of a whole story (with story...

Kim Nam-joo writes about her marriage and home
Queen of Reversals star Kim Nam-joo wrote a book, and it’s shooting up the ranks. Methinks they timed it well, with the premiere of her drama. The collection of essays and photographs, called Kim Nam-joo’s House, is a candid discussion of her family life and home. Of particular interest, of course, is her marriage to... More »

Song Seung-heon’s invisible love
Okay, I’m just going to say it. No one should be doing a Ghost remake. And even if someone were to undertake that folly, Song Seung-heon should not be starring in it. I mean, can anyone suppress the laughter? What were they thinking? Is it perhaps a comedy? Sadly, no. It wasn’t made as a... More »

Dr. Champ: Episode 9
Let’s all relive this moment, shall we? Ji Heon: I don’t like being this way (forgiving Yeon Woo), but I like you. Crazily. I just realized, I almost always have the bad luck of recapping the episode AFTER a squee-worthy moment (like here and here). Lucky you aberdeen!! OK – on to episode 9. Tags:... More »
