Movie Review: 4th Period Murder Mystery
Genre: Mystery/Thriller Rating: 7/10 ***See comments section below for my rating system As a whole, this movie was a good watch. It had its fun and quirky moments, suspense and thrill, and also a lot of teen drama. However, it lacked some crucial elements that would have made it even better. After watching, I can... More »

1 Night 2 Days: Episode 351
The Viewer Tour special continues (but does not yet conclude)! In this segment, we’re shown that even simple things like feeding and transportation can be a laborious effort, although surely it doesn’t help when there’s a nefarious PD at the helm, bokbulbok-ing his way through everything. The massive ensemble makes its way from Yeoeuido to... More »

Yoon Seung-ah has graduated to leading lady status with her next role, as she’s just been cast in KBS’s medical drama Brain, which earlier cast Lee Sang-yoon (The Duo) as its ambitious lead.

Can’t Lose: Episode 8
Hugs, fisticuffs, and forced skinship galore! I love embarrassing group therapy. It’s just what a stubborn couple needs – to be the losers at something together, just to take them down a peg or two. We’re halfway, so it’s time for some big revelations, as well as some resurgence of those pesky feelings, just to... More »

My Name Is Kim Sam Soon: Episode 14
I asked what is it about Sam Soon and this series that makes it so charming, and I think I figured it out. What sets this particular drama series (and the main character) apart is how real it feels. The hint of fantasy that comes with “yet another chaebol romance story” is literally trampled upon... More »

Can’t Lose: Episode 7
Can’t Lose continues to be funny, cute, and heart-warming at times. It’s too bad it’s probably destined to fly under the radar for most, because it’s a nice antidote to a lot of the angst out there. Real conflicts, real issues, but told in a light and humorous way. One marriage hurtles further along the... More »
