High Kick 3: Episodes 35-39
High Kick, how much do I love thee? Let me count the ways. God I love this show. What’s so brilliant about is that as a viewer, I’m being sewn into its thematic quilt – what seems like simple fluff stories are little squares integral to each other. Then you step back and admire the... More »

High Kick 3: Episodes 30-34
What an outstanding week for High Kick 3. This show isn’t really slap-your-knee funny, but damn if it doesn’t have a way of stirring the heart. I suspect that many a casual viewer may have gotten hooked with these episodes, which were full of emotion and poignancy — not in big dramatic sweeps, but in... More »

High Kick 3: Episodes 25-29
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 »

High Kick 3: Episodes 22-24
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 »

High Kick 3: Episodes 18-21
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 »

With the basic relationships now firmly established, we start to branch off a bit with side characters and relationships, rounding out this world of Ahns, Yoons, and neighbors.

High Kick 3: Episodes 10-13
Week 3! High Kick 3 is continuing along nicely. I don’t watch it expecting to laugh out loud, although it’s been managing a nicely light, humorous tone. But where it really shines is in the poignant character beats, the stuff that happens between plot points when a connection is made, a friendship struck. Best of... More »

High Kick 3: Episodes 5-9
What a great week for High Kick 3. If they keep pouring out the humor as well as addressing some realistic issues like they did with these episodes – count me in. We skim the surface of some deep-seeded troubles our characters are faced with and served some light-hearted funny that keeps this week engaging,... More »

High Kick 3′s family tree, relationship chart, and lovelines
Ah, the family tree/relationship chart is out for High Kick! Counterattack of the Short Legs, which is great for getting a quick overview of the cast/family structure. I’d read little bits and pieces of the various character descriptions, but with more than a dozen actors in the main cast, it was confusing keeping everything straight.... More »
