- Completed -

Takane no Hana: Pooh ! He is the most precious thing in this drama filled with complicated and toxic family dynamics. He smiled during the wedding scene instead of getting angry was one of the most touching scene I've ever watched.

- Currently watching -

100 Days My Prince: Je Yoon who can't remember faces encountered Won Deuk/Yul. How convenient. "I'm uncomfortable" will surely help him realise Won Deuk's real identity.

A-Teen: Kimha's behaviour to her friends... no comment.

Bad Papa: This week highlighted the father-daughter relationship. During the episode I wanted the daughter to talk to her father about her concerns for him and in the last minutes, they finally talked. How precious they are together !

Dae Jang Geum is Watching: It feels like a mix between a sitcom, a family drama and a cooking show with a touch of Let's Eat and magic.

Hide and Seek: Chae Rin and her douche bag husband finally divorced. Yeon Ju remembered the song she used to sing with her real mom so maybe this week she might recover her memory or at least get closer to discovering her real identity.

Just One Bite: It's a new webdrama on youtube. With only four episodes, I find it cute to watch a female trio talking about their worries around good food.

Miss Ma, Nemesis: The second episode was more lighthearted with the ahjummas. I like that a partnership between the heroine and an other woman is hinted at the end. If she wants to prove her innocence concerning her daughter's death, she needs any support she can find.

Matrimonial Chaos: Someone said in Open Thread that the main couple was the Third Charm's couple years later. I have to agree ! They both have opposite personnalities and I wonder how got married. The show has a slice of life feel and is character driven.

Player: We got to see a glipse of each team members' backstory (well, still waiting for hacker's !) and I'm in now. Seeing the prosecutor and Ha Ri working together is going to be fun and rewarding !

Room No.9: Body swaps is my drama catnip so no wonder I'm on board ! I want to root for Hwasa's revenge and see the lawyer in her body experience the consequences of what she did to Hwasa.

Terius Behing Me: I'm more interested with the sitter's shenigans, the KIS and the ridiculous CEO than the spy stuff.

The Beauty Inside: A contracted relationship... didn't see that coming. The half-sister doesn't seem to be a serious threat and her potential relationship with Se Gye's friend could me interesting. take this show as a fresh original drama with no link with the movie.

The Ghost Detective: I'm always scared for Yeo Wool and Da Il. But that scene where he tried to chock her made me anxious for the future.

The Guest: One moment I was thinking "What if it were Grandpa ?" and the other one "What if it were Dad ?". Show...

100 Million Stars: *searching for 'how not to be attracted to a manipulative, possibly psycopathic, and might-be murderer young man who looks like Seo In-guk' futilely*
Help!!!

Where Stars Land: I mini-marathoned it this week and I really like it. It's fascinating to see the inner working of less-explored place like airport and I like all the little tidbit we get from various characters that populated this show. I do wish we'll stop going from one dramatic situation to another, though. Because I think even the more mundane task and conflict could be explored interestingly here.

Ghost Detective: With real life getting busier and Yeo-wool in perpetual state of almost breaking down, I don't think I have the patience to continue watching it. I know Daniel Choi looks awesome here and that Hye is a rare type of villain, but unfortunately they're not enough to keep my interest in the show.

Third Charm - 💇🏻👩‍❤️‍👨
Mango juice
Too sweet. However, I do continue to love our two love birds who seem to be glued to each other after seven years apart. I don't blame them! I'm not expecting much from this drama other than cuteness and angst. It is just a romance after all. I also adore Joon-young's nosy, detective sister and his easy going parents. Esom cries beautifully and I don't blame her for withdrawing after her brother's accident. I'm glad she's back to herself even if things aren't the same anymore.

100 Days My Prince - 🤴🏻🐕
Tea (without milk)
Just like a warm cup tea with just enough sugar, I continue to enjoy the relationship with Yul and Hong Seol. I particularly liked seeing more of Jo yoon as the governor even though he hasn't exactly been helpful to the villagers in anyway. All part of his major plan I'm sure. But I would like to see the trio working together. The stakes at this point are very low and I hope things pick up speed next wk now that Yul has regained his memories (I believe he is hiding it from Hong Seol and also has not accepted who he really is yet).

Fox Bride Star - 👶🏻🤖
Milk
Honestly, I'm not a fan of milk...by itself. There are many things I do not like about milk-ok two things- the smell and the taste. But I have milk in my coffee or tea and I like flavoured milk too. Likewise, this show has a hundred flaws and yet. Yet, this was what I clicked on first this week to watch. I don't know if it's Cha Soo Bin or Lee Je'hoon or the airport setting (love love love) or Dust the robot XD but it pulls me in like a magnet not unlike the paper clip on Soo-yeon's metal arm. Also, the romance is simmering on the surface at the right temperature just the way I like it. One MAJOR issue for me however is the amount of unbelievable things happening at the airport. They need to stop.

Ghost Detective -🕵🏻‍♀️🤦🏻
Orange juice
My least favourite drink of all time. I'm sorry, Show but this week's eps were disappointing. For a show that had been entertaining and kinda smart..it let me down by doing stupid things for no reason. We found Da II's body last week and we know he's alive and yet they are dragging it by having Sunwoo Hye's mum hide him again. WHY.
Yeo wool hasn't exactly been helpful either. I can't believe she just stood there instead of running or attacking Sunwoo Hye! And I really don't understand why everyone is so protective of her as if she's fragile. Wasn't she good at taekwondo or something? Iwanna see her kick some butt instead being damsel in distress!

Terrius Behind Me -🌯👜 Lemon lime bitters
Cool, fizzy, lemony with a splash of colour. I loved this week's episodes. Special mention-KIS. They are an awesome group of people in the neighbourhood who can be a little nosy but also very handy in emergency situations. Bon's landed himself in the middle of this and it's so fun watching him being...

Player : the production is slick and the group is fun to watch. I just hope theres more explanation about their plans, because i get confused at times.

Matrimonial chaos : tried watching it. But got stuck at ep 2 😅. I'll try to continue later.

Third charm : SKJ has grown a lot since CITT. I like esom from BTIMFL. Its an easy watch for now.

Terius : i tried for son ho jun. But nope. I cant get myself to continue watching because the story doesnt excite me much~ huhu

One More Happy Ending : rewatched some episodes that i thought were hilarious or touching. Mainly because i need some dose of JKH haha

Internet has been down for 2 weeks so I can’t really watch a lot of shows and managed to squeeze in these only:

Terius behind me : I love the silly comedy and the neighbourhood networking which is a smart contrast with the NIS. I could watch broody So Ji Sub with kids all day everyday!

Devilish Joy: Finally caught up to the last four episodes and thank god I saved them. This show is such a crack drama but I can feel the angst coming in but I know our devilish couple will get through anything since they managed to surpass the noble idiocy stage.

Bad papa: the thing that makes this show interesting and watchable is it has so many plot points going on that when you think it’s going to get boring another scene makes it interesting again. Also Ha Joon is so beautiful that my interest peaks every time he is on screen. Yes I’m superficial like that.

Since, one can't be jobless for ever, the number of dramas I chose to watch were far less:
1. Hundred Million Stars : You can't keep me away from this drama, its just so good that I don't know when the two episodes finish and I have to go and watch the Japanese version to see how it goes. The acting and direction is far nicer in the Korean version and I like the adaption far more.
2. The beauty inside I don't care about it making sense or not but its just too funny and I love it for that. I love Seo Hyun Jin she is my hero.
3. Terius Behind me I am enjoying it and I love our KIS, they are so smart ahjumas and ahjussi. And I love the fact that they are so helpful and sweet to Ai Rin. And So Ji Sub's extra actions are funny to watch.
4. The Guest I have to watch it still and I want to watch it but something is stopping me. Why? I don't even want to think that I am bored of the same pattern already, they promised me something new but I have already seen the first 20 min, and its not there, don't lose it show.

BEAUTY INSIDE: The drunk video call scene of Se-kye is so cute, and Do-jae needs to stop from being cold to warm to cold again, you ain't an air conditioner! also cracked everytime Sa-ra meets Eun-ho. Now waiting for Sec Jung and Director Yoo's becomes a thing.

BLOOD: OK I know that is sick for a hospital developing their own drugs and treating a patients like lab rats. But I got compelled as Ji-sang and Ri-ta now opened up to each other.

GOOD DOCTOR: Just watching pilot and damn, time passed so quick. Kudos to the child and Joo-won is also that amazing at portraying Shi-on.

MOON LOVERS/SCARLET HEART RYEO: I. Hate. Hae Soo. She is so wishy-washy, reckless, and always act like damsel in distress. The problem is that I hate her to the point that I hates everyone who likes and loves her. And I know Yeon-hwa is that calculating and manipulative bitch, but somehow I end up rooting for her because she knows what she wants and doing whatever it means to have it.

THE GUEST: I am frustrated with the pace of the story which runs very slow. But for the production I have trust in Studio Dragon for making it great.

WHERE STARS LAND: Yes Yeo-reum you finally stand up. But now what we're gonna have love triangle(?) and also what the heck with the ending

Watching:
Fox Bride Star - Because Chae Soo Bin is everything, because our leads are awesome, because the show is really pretty and because I have been waiting my whole life for Dust Robot and I didnt even know. I only wish this drama airport had less extremely dramatic almost life or death situations and would deal with more mundane things.

Third Charm: because Seo Kang Joon's smile lights up the entire week.

Ghost Detective: I don't know why I am slowly losing interest but I will stick it out for the cast. I do love our little detective team.

On hold because only so many hours in a week:
100 days my prince
Terrius
I should be more compelled to watch these shows but I find myself reaching for the others first.

I'm watching:
Fox Bride Star : aaaah
Million Stars from the Sky : ooooh
Room Nr 9 : eeeeh?
Hundred Days My Prince : oh-ho!

100 days prince - Now that je yoon and yul have finally partnered up, I hope he recognizes him (seems like he will). Want yul to finally go back and resolve the palace issues but also want more of him and HS. How will they manage with only 5 eps left? Now I wish there was more plot in the past 10 eps.
Ghost Detective - Now I kind of understand why Sunwoo is obsessed with the leads. They both had people ready to die for them. But Enough with her getting an upper hand all the time! Also I can't sympathize with Kim gyeol. He's just weak and a coward. Plus that army mystery is a bit too late to introduce isn't it? Also it seems like everybody except the leads have much more resources and brains to figure things out and work together, while YW is just pining.
The Guest - HP's luck is way too cruel. Please don't hurt him any more.
Terius Behind Me - I can't take Yong tae seriously. Are you sure you're a bad guy? Is it too much to hope that he's being forced to do all this and may join hands with bon in the future?
Player - I honestly don't know how they've the nerve to pull off a con, when they just keep screaming furiously at the smallest sign of danger.
Bon voyage - Wish Suga didn't leave, just as V joined them.

After Life finished, I don't feel like watching anything else. Then I'm suddenly inundated with all the new premieres. Here's a list of what I've attempted so far but apologies in advance if this review seems a lot more bitter than usual. My name is m3lon4 and I'm in a drama slump.

Thirty but Seventeen: Marathoned this light and breezy show with an ensemble cast that has great chemistry. Very watchable and Shin Hye-sun carried the show. I quite enjoyed this.

The Ghost Detective: Dropped after 6 episodes. Don't feel like continuing. Plus I'm a chicken.

The Third Charm: Dropped after 4 episodes. It just feels so fast-paced (in terms of how the relationship progresses) and yet slow at the same time (as in nothing of significance happens). I'm not making any sense, am I?

Fox Bride Star: 4 episodes in. If not for my love for Lee Je-hoon I would've dropped this show like a hot potato within the first act of incompetence by Han Yeo-reum. That's how much I hated this character. Dramaland has had some flawed characters that you still want to root for, because you can somehow relate to their logic, or you can see a sliver of redeeming qualities from them. I got none whatsoever from her. Seriously considering dropping this. I put myself through watching Tomorrow With You till the end even though it bored me to tears, but I have no confidence I can do it again. Sorry, Je-hoon. PS: I like you better in a thriller-style drama as that's where your acting strength is.

Matrimonial Chaos: 2 episodes in and it is building up a nice realistic story. I especially like the punch at the end of episode 2 where one's beautiful memory of a relationship is not necessarily shared by the other party. Bae Doona is a natural as usual but it's Son Seok-goo's non-chalant but sexy aura that caught my eye (the character is a major jerk reminiscent of his Mother days but he's so good at it that I can understand why he was casted). Will wait and see if future episodes hold up.

One Hundred Million Stars Falling From The Sky: 4 episodes in and possibly the best one out of all the new premieres. The director deserves a nod as I can feel the uneasy tension in almost every scene. It makes for an exhilarating watch. Will continue.

On the watch list (pending good reviews for the ending): The Guest (I'm still a chicken though, will watching in daylight help?)
Don't bother starting: My Secret Terius, Beauty Inside, Player, Nine Room

So many shows so little time. With a truckload of shows premiering the past few weeks, my week has been filled with new shows that I am happy to have watched but sad to let go at the same time.

The Beauty Inside was the show I was initially just going to check out for the leads but ended up falling in love and enjoying the ride. I love Seo Hyun-jin in comedic roles and she gave me the right amount of fun with this show while Lee Min-ki is such a delight to watch.

Terius Behind Me had a mix of genres and it works so well. It was really fun to watch a spy babysitter, a clueless mom, the KIS, and the sort-of scary but funny villain. The So Ji-sub drought is now officially over and this show blessed us with so much more.

The adaptation of The Smile Has Left Your Eyes was amazing. The acting was brilliant and the way the plot and the characters were presented was amazing. Seo In-guk is doing an amazing job as Kim Moo-young, while Jung So-min is making me like Yoo Jin-kang more and more. Park Sung-woong is amazing as always.

My heart was filled with so much love by this week's episodes of 100 Days My Prince but I will never be ready for the upcoming angst this show is going to give us. Where Stars Land is not what I expected, but something keeps pulling me to watch and enjoy this show aside from the actors.

Had to drop The Third Charm for now because although I love the leads, I think it's the writing and the second leads that pulls me apart from this show. I don't feel any connection with The Best Divorce so I'll also have to put it on the shelf. And as much as I am enjoying The Ghost Detective, show had to be put on hold so my heart can be prepared for the thrills and the sadness that show will bring us.

I finally finished Life and I definitly need to watch it again, I think I came into this drama with a lot of expectations espcially since I LOVE forest of secrets and I thought I would love this drama too that did not happen.
I didnt buy the romance between Seung Ho and No Eul andI wish they spend more time with Woo Chang but if there is one thing I absolutely Loved is Dr/Director Oh I just loved her charactor and her interactions with Seung Ho and how she came back and was a total boss confrenting that man.

My Secret Terrius I am enjoying the show so far. It has managed to keep me entertained and balancing all its strengths. The show does not take itself too seriously or be too cheesy. My love for Bon knows no bounds.

But I do hope that they will teach discipline to those twins soon. I didn't really like them throwing tantrums in public and ending up "rewarded" by indirectly getting those fishes they asked for. Under the guise of Bon wanting to raise fishes. 😒

Other than that, Bon beating up those thugs and picking up Aerin in that gorgeous blue car is hot! So Ji Sub only get better as he gets older. *swoon* 😉

Misaeng Eight episodes! The show has shown me a slice of life from this group of people who are just making most of their corner of the universe. I can definitely relate to their plight (and amount of coffee to get through the day) and glad tha Geu-rae has wonderful support system. That is very important to get through the trials and mundaneness of work life.
I was quite sad to see Seok Yul loose his spirit and his dead eyes just feel heartbreaking. (I love his look though and am glad to do away with his pervy hair). Hopefully I will get to see that chatterbox again!

The Player I put this off for the meantime and will get back to this soon-ish.

Beauty Inside: Seo Hyun-jin is the best. I'm not quite at the point where I feel like I should be rooting for their relationship yet, but this is quite enjoyable. I'm just waiting on pins and needles for the next transformation...

Fox Bride Star: Oooh, it's getting better. It took a few disasters and emergencies for Romantic Doctor to become crack material, so maybe this will be what the doctor (ha) ordered. But, seriously, I'm mad - why cast Lee Dong-gun and NOT make him a giant marshmallow??

The Best Divorce: Hm... So I loved the first episode, and then the second one confused me? Ah, who cares, Bae Doona is playing a sweetheart character for a change, and I'm loving that.

The Smile Has Left Your Eyes: I DON'T KNOW WHAT TO THINK.

Last Cinderella: Re-watch! If you only have to watch one rom-com, I think it should be this one. Great unique gags, and a realistic depiction of loving, ageing and growing. (Also, there's a fun psycho here! XD)

I'm so excited for Kemono ni Narenai Watashitachi!

My list still in order of the most compelling to most meh (to me).

Will Watch ASAP
The Guest – Still good and ooh as almost expected, that it would go the unexpected way, the investigation over who really has Big Bad in them has gotten deliciously twisty. As people keep dying, we're gonna sort of run out of candidates though!

Terius Behind Me – It's becoming funnier and funnier and has risen on my list. Is it wrong to like the villain so much? And the bromance of the househusband and the sitter is taking precedence over the romance!

The Smile Has Left Your Eyes - Moved down a notch. I shake my head at Seung Ah's choices, but I also commiserate. Still so young and feeling used by mum. Not surprising someone as manipulating as Moo Young would be able to control her without ever seeming to do so, at least to her. Jin Gook is showing up as perfectly competent, so it's a mystery why he's being sidelined. Still chilling. I'm expecting another young female to bite the dust.

The Beauty Inside - We've had 2-4 episodes without her changing at all. I wish it were clear how much time passes. I'm guessing if the show was giving us a day at a time, Se Gye has been in her own body for about 12 days? Prickliness is reduced and OTP proximity is played up, but I'm not sure if it has sparked the flame for me. Conversely, Sa Ra, the 2nd lead troublemaker female (that I would usually ignore) is now becoming more interesting. Her 'normal' reactions to the run-ins with Eun Ho provide the unexpected twists and humour, that the body changes have not: at least, not lately!

Will Watch If I Can
Player - I've moved this show up this list and pushed The Third Charm and Where Stars Land down. The tricking and counter-tricking of the bad guy is always fun to watch, and this week we got a bit of info on a couple of the characters. So that immediately raises my interest. I'm still hoping to see the whys of the team though. Why did they trust Ha Ri enough to join his team? How did he scout and recruit the 2 guys? Anyway the bad guy getting a thorough comeuppance was most satisfying to watch.

Where Stars Land/Fox Bride Star - Very slow burn from meh to getting more interesting. I felt that I was watching an extended advert for the airport. The exodus to Terminal 2 did not enthuse me. I thought I'd be more interested in Manager Yang's relationship with Soo Yeon, with Seo In Woo and with Choi Moo Ja, than with Yeo Reum's growing to become a better version of herself. However that all finally changed with Ep 3 & 4 where weaknesses could become strengths, feelings become evident and more backstory is given. Great to understand finally where the "Fox Bride Star" title comes from.

The Third Charm – I only skip watched because there was nothing else I wanted to try. I thought I'd just continue with this for the time being, but it was truly irritating. In the beginning...

Beauty Inside Somehow this is affecting my impression of the actors. It's also easy to drop because I am just not that interested.

My Secret Terrius I did picked it up but I'm dropping it again. Sorry Ji Sub, maybe I'll just watch one of your movies.

The Third Charm I wanted so much to watch this for Seo Kang Joon but I wasn't anticipating this week's episodes. Not a good sign.

The Smile Has Left Your Eyes Despite not being a fan of Seo In Guk(Oops!!!), this is the one which interest me most. I like the mood, the mystery and it just feels different.

Matrimonial Chaos It's strange, I am alright with Cha Tae Hyun in reality shows but not dramas. I wish I can watch it for Bae Doona but it just didn't hook me.

Room No. 9 It was chingu @greenfields lamentations about the terrible inaccuracies that caught my attention to this drama. Thankfully, the legal stuff didn't bother me because I am piqued to see how things are going to work out.

Familiar Wife binge watching this. I dislike Joo Hyuk but I love Ji Sung in this one. Much more than any other dramas which I've seen of his. I think if it's another actor, I wouldn't be able to continue.

Matrimonial Chaos I was not fun of the 2 main characters. They are so cliché. I'm feeling we already saw this kind of relationship so many times. And I guess they will get back together at the end. The second couple is more interesting for now.

Where Stars Land I like it so far. The heroin seems to become more professional, more bearable :p

The Guest I'm more interested by the trio trying to save people together than the investigation about PID.

The Beauty Inside Things are becoming more fun :D

The Ghost Detective Can they just be happy ?

The Smile Has Left Your Eye It's my favourite one. I think this drama make me becoming weird : I know that it's a melodrama but it makes me exctied and I giggle like it was a rom-com. Either I'm nervous because of the criminal part, or I'm excited for Ji Kang - Moon Young scenes.

The Third Charm My opinion is not clear of this one.

I wished I could watch more dramas but I only have time (and passion) for The Guest, everything else is on hold for now (100 Days My Prince, Beauty Inside, The Best Divorce, 100 Million Stars)

Meanwhile.. I'm looking forward to IU and Lee Jun Ki's guest appearance in Ask Us Anything/Knowing Brother. I can't believe I will be able to witness them together again after Moon Lovers. I hope IU will show her cute dance part from BBIBBI 😆 (I like the song anyway !)

I’m drawn to Hundred Millions Stars like moths to a flame. I know it’s going to hurt badly... like really badly but I can’t stop watching it. Acting is top notch as expected but I’m really intrigued by a strong directing. Is it bad if I want SIG’s character to turn even more sinister? For once I want a true antihero, not the one who softens after falling in love.

I don’t know if I’m the only one who totally don’t get The Beauty Inside . I watched all 4 episodes and I just don’t get why the characters are doing what they’re doing, I don’t get where the story is going or what’s even the point of the drama. I’m so disappointed because I was looking forward to LMK’s new drama but I just don’t like it, so I’ll probably drop this one.

Currently watching My Secret Terrius! Definitely need the silly rom-com to try to balance out the heavy hitter c-drama The Rise of The Phoenixes. It’s kind of accomplished that but seeing as I’ve finished TROP, my heart is crushed. So I need something cute and cheerful to raise me up and fill the hole left my TROP between MST episodes. So, should I pick up:

1. Beauty Inside
2. Fox Bride Star
3. 3rd Charm

Also anyone got other historical and just beautiful c-drama recommendations? TROP is the first historical Cdrama I’ve watched and the compelling leads, burning chemistry, excellent writing and lavish costuming has consumed me. So other recommendations (preferably less tragic) would be massively appreciated, especially if the leads are as excellent and sexy and fiery as Ning Yi and Feng Zhiwei.

Did anyone watch TROP by the way? No? Just me? Ok.

Player: Pretty fun drama that doesn't require any mental or emotional exercise on the part of the reader. I do wish the team would chill out a bit more.

Guest: I thought episode 9 really dragged, and then episode 10 happened and redeemed the week. What is the fun and exciting version of whiplash? The writer probably knew we'd suspect the Ahn Nae Sang's character and is now saying "haha. you sure about that?". Now I don't know who to suspect.

Ghost Detective: The car PPLs have been ridiculous. It doesn't make sense to take separate cars when you're all going to the same place. At least make a joke about having matching cars. I hate Gyeol and the interloper trying to join the Scooby Gang. This drama had been good at being sort of hazy and using that to create tension. I felt like the tension snapped and jumped into tedium/time filler territory this week except for the scene between Sunwoo Hye and her mother and the reveal behind why she was making people commit suicide.

Paused 100 Days My Prince and Terrius behind me.

It’s funny how things end up: I was originally going to watch Hundred Million Stars From the Sky and Room No. 9 given their synopses and Beanie sentiments, but real life has kept me so busy that I decided to follow the classic kdrama instead. I foresee myself being unable to find time consistently to watch the two shows above, so unfortunately I’ll not follow them (can’t get myself tempted reading the recaps!). As for The Ghost Detective, I’ll have to catch up over the weekend: it’s too interesting to drop and I’ve watched half of it already.

100 Days My Prince:
Je Yoon not figuring out that Won Deuk is the Crown Prince was just annoying! Even without the letter or the distinct voice (it’s funny how he recognised the gisaeng and female lead but not the male lead), the ‘uncomfortable’ phrase should have at least set bells ringing. Also, while Oppa may have been forced into becoming an assassin, Je Yoon’s ‘tyranny’ was intentionally done without consideration of friendly fire, so that’s another point against him. I’m surprised that the king is the one out of all the palace characters that has the most growth, but it’s still mostly static down there.

Fox Bride Star:
I guess female lead was supposed to be written as idealistic and hot-headed but something went wrong during the setup and the director is probably the one at fault for portraying her as self-indulgent and incompetent when she has more depth: she protects the female security guard and demonstrates sensitivity towards male lead’s need for privacy. The security team leader is in my opinion worse than 2nd male lead for relentlessly trying to expose male lead, though I might have to eat those words soon depending on what the 2nd male lead does now that he knows who male lead is.

Marathoning 2 episodes of The Guest, 4 episodes of Ghost Detective, 8 episodes of Hwayugi, and keep mixing the plot here and there. Because The Guest leave strong impression, I keep on screaming "we need to exorcise!!" every time ghost come up in GD and Hwayugi, only to realize "oops, different drama!" 😅

Terius It's a silly story but it's also funny and adorable so it's easy to forget the silliness of the plot, doesn't hurt having a sexy villain.

Million Stars The favorite by far, love manipulative people. I didn't get Jin Kang this week. Didn't she become friends with MY too fast? This is the same guy that was maybe cheating of her bf and that ignored her call saying he was with another woman. Then JK gets slapped by the mom and suddenly it's ok not to care about any of that? I know there are people like that, they care only what it's done to people they like not what itself was done, but I didn't think she was one of these people? Or she isn't but she is acting like that to fit the story and move plot along? Bad writing? I didn't think this show would have that. Also they could skip people saying how handsome SIG is, felt fake. Anyway, everything else was great.

The Third Charm I don't think these two people should be a couple. They are too immature and their insecurities don't match. How can a romcom be any good if you want them to go their separate ways?

Beauty Inside I like the main characters and side characters, just don't like the story itself. Too many coincidences and logic jumps perhaps.

100 days my prince
- i am itching because the new mayor is face-blind. The crown prince that he was waiting for is just-right-there! I hope he recognizes him soon!

My secret Terrius
- Babysitting Bon is the most adorable thing ever. Can he babysit forever? Please?
- The King's Bag lady...is it just me or her acting is a bit awkward?

One Hundred Million Stars from The Sky
- It is very tempting to checkout the japanese version, but i won't. The relationship between Moo Young and Jin Kang is cute. They are the cutest, bickering pair who are able to fight while doing nice thing to each other. I want to fill my screen with it but the relationship between Jin Gook and the female police officer is also very cute to miss out. Can't they just go out?

Beauty Inside
It is actually comforting to have the card out in the open, at least to one person. These two might have the contract for business for now, but soon they might keep it to keep them alive.

Lot of dramas are ongoing right now but I only have eyes for The Guest.
I really like the trio working together in getting rid of spirits. I don't know I just don't have the mood to watch any show right now because I'm fully engrossed in watching this show until the end.

Tho, I might try Where Stars Land next just because of the very popular clip right now about the cameo of filipino actors in said drama, which had me a bit teary-eyed when I watch it.

Where stars land : i cant predict what kind of person is lee dong gun actually. He definitely lee je hoon's good brother(?) in the past and maybe guilty about that accident, but he seems unhappy about lee je hoon's being physically "normal" after that accident. Why?

The guest : this absolutely getting better and creppier each week. All you need when you look for suspense, horror, thriller and mystery show. It one of kind show that you afraid to watch but you cant help because it makes you addicted. I need to look at a lot photos of puppy and laughing babies to recover after each episode.

The smile has left your eyes : this show actually have a lot depressing and sad story, but somehow i feel strong energy of hope and happiness in this show. Not kind of happiness that makes you dancing or giggling, but solemn one. Im not quite sure how, is it just me?

The ghost detective : ok show, first, you looks like a lion, but now i doubt you have teeths. But i guess we will find out next week. Im counting on you writernim.

Hey, Beanies! It’s been months since I joined in for WWW. I’d been on a DB and drama-watching hiatus for a while but I am back, baby!

Because This Life is Our First: In celebration of this stunning show’s one-year anniversary and as an attempt to remind myself that a certain currently-airing drama doesn’t exist, several of us have been rewatching BTLIOF on Rabbit! We’ll be treating it like a currently-airing drama, watching one episode on Mondays and one on Tuesdays at 6pm Eastern time! Man, I forgot how great this show was from its very first week. It’s one of those few where everything just works together beautifully—acting, writing, and directing. Once again I cried when Ji-ho found herself violated and without any place to call home or even shelter, until her feet found their way to Se-hee’s doorstep. And.... man. Nam Se-hee. I love him so much. I love Lee Min-ki SO MUCH. What a brilliantly nuanced portrayal of a one-of-a-kind character. Once again I am reminded of why Nam Se-hee is the best male lead of all time. It’s striking how he uses his unique, logical way of thinking to empathize with other people. Those who call him emotionless are ignorant and blind. Yes, he’s reserved and introverted, but he is also warm and compassionate. I love how clearly the show set up our character’s personalities in just the first two episodes. What a drama.

And then later today we are watching Spellbound as my birthday celebration. I....... love Lee Min-ki a lot okay.

As for dramas that are actually currently airing, I really enjoy The Third Charm so far! Both Esom and Seo Kang-joon are delivering great performances and I really like their chemistry. Esom’s character is refreshingly flawed. There is still a long way to go until the end and I’m curious as to where the writer will bring us. I generally find the endings of on-again/off-again relationship stories to be unsatisfying (Ho-rang and Won-seok in BTLIOF, the movie Very Ordinary Couple) so we’ll see if this ends up being any different.

I’m also enjoying the first couple of episodes of Fox Bride Star and 100 Million Stars! In fact, HMS is probably my favorite of the bunch right now. Really unsettling premiere episodes, in a really good way, and I simply love everything about this cast. So so good to have my boy SIG back, and Jung So-min is so delightful always!

I have a lot of catching up to do these next few days but overall this seems to be a pretty good season!
