You’re the Best, Lee Soon-shin: Episodes 29-30 [Open Thread]
There’s actual watchable goodness this week! If you’re trying to watch this show strategically, my recommendation is to watch the first 25 minutes of Episode 30. They’re thoroughly worth it. And then you can resume your usual fast-forward (or skipping) routine. (Given the recent pattern of makjang and angst, I’m amazed that there’s as much... More »

You’re the Best, Lee Soon-shin: Episodes 27-28 [Open Thread]
After a lot of long hard deliberation, I decided to drop recaps for You’re the Best, Lee Soon-shin after all. I’ve explained the reasons in previous recaps so I won’t belabor the point here; the short answer is that I’ve decided that this show isn’t the best use of my recapping time. On the other... More »

You’re the Best, Lee Soon-shin: Episodes 25-26
Phew, the cat is out of the bag, finally, after desperately clinging to the walls of said bag and shredding it to pieces until there was hardly even any bag left to hide in. It took some bloody scratches, bruised hearts, and a heckuva while to get here, but we did make it. Huzzah. Plus,... More »

You’re the Best, Lee Soon-shin: Episodes 23-24
There’s a whole lotta good stuff in these two episodes, which is much appreciated—the drama took some time setting up its conflicts and getting its story pieces in place, but now that we’ve sat through that it sure is gratifying to get to the payoff. Multiple characters step it up and advance our plot in... More »

You’re the Best, Lee Soon-shin: Episodes 21-22
I’m happy to report that the upswing continues; I’m hopeful that this momentum will carry through for the foreseeable future. With more people finding out secrets, we get more action and development up in this joint, shaking it free of that slow bout of sitting and moping we had for a while. Plus, Jun-ho has... More »

You’re the Best, Lee Soon-shin: Episodes 19-20
I think we’ve gotten past the slump: This week’s episodes move things along quickly, outing some secrets, changing relationship dynamics, pushing along romances, and giving us a glimpse at a world where Bitter Mom is Slightly Less Bitter Mom. I’m not sure that we’ll ever have her being warm and sweet again, but it’ll take... More »

You’re the Best, Lee Soon-shin: Episodes 17-18
Lots and lots of cuteness in this pair of episodes. It’s not like there’s a whole lot of new stuff going on, but the drama shifts its balance toward its humorous and couple-centric side, and that makes for a much more enjoyable watch this week. Plus, we kick up a few new conflicts and advance... More »

You’re the Best, Lee Soon-shin: Episodes 15-16
We take some significant steps forward in several storylines, which makes these two episodes rather satisfying (although there are certain other aspects that are less than gratifying, admittedly). But if we must deal with an increase of wrought emotions and mother-daughter angst, at least we get lovelines stepping it up all around to soften that... More »

You’re the Best, Lee Soon-shin: Episode 14
Someone moves in, someone moves out, someone gets spit on, and someone gets slapped, not necessarily in that order. Strangely the episode isn’t as eventful as that makes it sound, but Soon-shin’s relationship with her mentor takes a turn upward, just as things with Mom take a sharp turn downward. If only she knew just... More »

You’re the Best, Lee Soon-shin: Episode 13
Placing Jun-ho at the mercy of the Lee women is one conflict that can play out forever, as far as I’m concerned, because it produces some hilarious misunderstandings. With a hapless heo-dang hero on one hand and the bumbling Bread Man on the other, courtship was never funnier. If only the show would actually drag... More »
