Beanie level: Chaebol’s poor doppelganger

Sure I’l take MJ as my bae! This cheesy-gorgeous-with-terrible-humour diva totally rivals Hyun-jae ! Can’t wait to see him have more screen time & acting dainty with WS!

      Yup – they are adorable! Didnt take me any time at all to jump to that ship! They better not play very angsty how-is-Bora’s-hubby . Good thing I dont see many strong contenders yet.. but considering how PBG starts to become a contender for our girl only around ep7-8 I shouldnt raise my expectations.

      Ahhh the angst of a good drama! Although maan.. those episodes are reeaaly long!

    one of the best plot twists ever, especially since there was hardly any indication of his feelings. It only gets better after ep6, enjoy!

Question: Anyone fallen sick from unhealthy binge-watching?! Is that possible?

    probably, sleep-deprivation, irregular sleeping schedules especially if you have to work, not moving enough, eating not right=> it can lead to some negative side-effects in the long term,

      sleep deprivation.. oh yess! I really feel like that caricature of kim seulgi as the sleep deprived publisher/editor !

    I’m pretty sure binge-watching heals the soul. Don’t let anyone tell you otherwise.

    (But maybe run in place for half an episode and have some fruit when you’re doing it. And don’t forget to stay hydrated. It is a marathon after all.)

    Serious side effects include midnight ramyun eating and obsessive drama blog lurking

    I honestly got sick after two days of unhealthy binge-watching. I skipped meals and didn’t sleep much (about 2-3 hours). After I finished Age of Youth, I was very week and became over-fatigued. It was worth it tho. 😀

My catnip is kick-ass heroines esp those who can do martial arts & slay their own dragons! Need more dramas with them! Drama Suggestions?

    Lookout if you are not watching it already! 😀 The heroine is so effortlessly kick-ass you’d think she was born this way.

    The female lead in Gu Family Book is a martial artist, but can’t remember whether she stayed kick-assy or not 😛

      That was on my list but the promo for it was so mehh… and the female lead looked like she couldnt act.. so i sorta skipped it. worth it?

        She can’t really act lol, but I don’t think it ruined the show or anything. Seunggi being cute and the show’s overall humor and fluffiness made up for it 😛

        Yes, good riddens they got rid of that! Or at least for the most part. It’s one of the most exasperating tropes out there, especially as it doesn’t make sense 99,999% of the time lol.

    The only one I got wrong was the one about UEE and Yoo In Ah. I really don’t remember YIA being that evil in MLFAS, despite having watched it twice… She was more… sad?

    1

      Yeah – that one was tricky but it was a matter of ruling out the other choices.. it’s a bit mean but I cant imagine Yoo In-ah playing a kick-ass heroine.. I mean she is so adorable geeky and awkward!

so CEO Byun or Lee Deok-hwa is my new fav ahjussi! He is killing it with his comedic timing & expressions in both Suspicious Partner & Best Hit!

      definitely not hidden! I think Samsung got lucky with this story.. cuz their product placement syncs perfectly with the storyline.. also a play on our Gen’s obsession with it?!

Chicago Typewriter… ufff what a show! Absolutely gorgeous & touching.
This is why I\’m addicted to kdrama – they have perfected the art of wrenching audience\’s emotions in the most satisfying ways.

    This! Koreans know how to play well with your emotions and emotionally invest you in their show. Something I miss in American shows.

      Yes me too! There is something so heartfelt about kdrama which is missing in American shows. Ever since I discovered kdrama, I hardly watch any american shows anymore! no time and frankly kdrama is just more satisfying!
