High Kick 3: Episodes 25-29
by | November 5, 2011 | 19 Comments
This week on High Kick, we’re on a rollercoaster of love for some of our characters from the early stages of infatuation, to a little bit of heartbreak. I’ve mentioned this before, but I’m invested in the side characters more than the main family. Maybe they’re just written better, or have more depth, or maybe... More »

  EPISODE 358. Broadcast on October 30, 2011. javabeans: The boys kick off the show with a goofy intro in Saturi accents, which is totally normal-sounding coming from a comedian like Su-geun, but entirely weird and jarring from a movie star like Tae-woong. These boys are such dorks. girlfriday: Ha, their idea of adopting the... More »

by | October 29, 2011 | 20 Comments
Aw, this week finally got a few tears out of me. High Kick 3 is pretty good even on an ordinary episode, but when it’s good, it can be really good, which we get with this week’s last installment. Note: Only three episodes aired this week, due to yet more pre-emptions. The constant pre-empting of... More »

Omg. I don’t know if I’ve laughed as hard since the Great Pants-Dropping Episode of 2011. It’s a little bit wrong, but a whole lot hilarious. Or maybe it’s a whole lot wrong — but still gut-bustingly hysterical.   EPISODE 357. Broadcast on October 23, 2011. girlfriday: Now that the boys are down the mountain,... More »

This week on High Kick, we start to solidify the foundations of the various types of relationships between our side-characters. Even our minor characters get their moment to shine and now I want to package Julien as my devoted cheerleader on the sidelines whenever things go sour. (Note: Monday’s episode aired the following day, so... More »

It’s an educational trip with a Buddhism slant today, which turns out to be pretty enlightening, actually. “Educational” isn’t something you’d think would necessarily be fun… but with these five personalities involved in the lesson, their interaction is bound to be entertaining, any way you slice it.   EPISODE 356.
