I decided to marathon Reunited Worlds in the end because I failed to catch up on it week per week and I now have weeks to go. Maybe I should come back to it?
I’ve been hearing great things about School 2017 recently too, maybe because it officially transitioned to crack for many. Will try it! Thank you, @rushda29!
There was a really slow couple of weeks there but School 2017 just became my crack. The last 2-3 episodes sold me completely. Still early days, but I think both Strongest Deliveryman and Live Up to Your Name might both be added to my “I need this fix” list.
I’m planning to try Strongest Deliveryman and Live Up to Your Name this weekend/next week! The recaps haven’t sold me on them too much yet but I’m definitely interested in both. I hope they both do well so that they’d be on my “I need this fix” list too, @hades. Hee
Forest of Secrets was my last too! It seems like it’s still the early weeks for most dramas to become crack for most? I don’t know. But I’m keeping my eyes out for some ~fan fervor~. Hope we get to fill this void and soon at that, @umbrellaman!
Ooh, I’m actually watching this one @sheens and I’m thinking it might be my future crack drama but it’s too early to tell. Hope it does well though! So excited for time traveling hijinks and mobster Jaejoong!
strongesy delivery man, school 2018,and manhole are my crack drama manhole made me laugh so hard despite the silliness of the story,,it’s really refreshing,SD and S17 make me giggling and swooning over the characters,,and the story are also good
Father is Strange! At this point I am so invested in the lives of every single character and just need everyone to get a happy resolution in the end! Also, I am preeeety obsessed with Lee Joon. My oppa needs a happy ending from all the drama.
If Doo-joon agrees to do Let\’s Eat 3 and he\’d have to romance a new girl, can it be Kim Seul-gi??? I need more than two episodes of them together huhu
They did,almost right after TVN said they’re casting.Knowing Highlight’s schedule for the next 2 months (concerts in Japan,Taiwan) I’m not too sure YDJ will be back.
I remember what JB said about dropping recaps, when GF and JB decided to drop Secret Door’s.
Here, I found it:
“We know there haven’t been many people watching but that isn’t much of a factor in this decision; we’d keep going no matter who was (or wasn’t) watching if we were gung-ho about the project and excited to pursue it.”
And I think other recappers also have the same principle. As long as they could bear on continuing a drama, they’d finish the recap. We know how much torture it is; to keep on watching, when every aspects of drama we’re holding on to are no longer there D:
I’m glad to hear that! Placates me too. Falsify is going good so far and the recappers also find it good (based on their comments), so I have faith.
I know, recapping already sometimes zaps out the joy in a good drama, what more if it’s a bad drama. (Unless it’s super bad that it becomes entertaining. Haha!)
Sure, Falsify is no Forest of Secrets, because they\’re different. While both deal with corruption, Falsify holds its own. It\’s a good drama (no jinx!) but then FoS is so great; hard not to compare.
Rewatch it? I am planning to anyway, and watching Horse Doctor, one of Cho Seung Woo’s earlier works. He is quite good in that show. I want to watch Sense 8 now that Bae Doona has captured my attention. I am interested to know how she is faring in Hollywood.
Right? I continued with it because I wanted to see why everyone is loving it and spazzing about it and now I totally know why. Planning to watch the remaining episodes today, in time for the finale. Sadly, I can only watch the finale on Monday because I don’t have Internet during weekends. Fortunately, the recaps don’t roll around until Wednesday so I’m safe from all spoilers. Haha! Are you planning on catching up for the finale, @toramona?
@whoopeeyoo
Yup that’s the plan! I think at first I had to adjust to the pacing, different genre and having a majority of characters being very guarded with their emotions and facial expressions. I stayed with it to see what was up with the hype too and because it was shot so beautifully. I also stuck around because Cho Seung-Woo has this boyish manish charm about him and Bae Doo-Na gives her character so much warmth. 💕
Yes to that! At first it was so difficult because I dunno everyone’s intentions and emotions. Everyone was so guarded. Also, I’m not used to a kdrama that feels like an American TV show? So at first I was really confused. When I started watching it like an American TV show, I stopped feeling confused. Which just means that this is kind of a first for kdramas. Up until the eighth episode, we don’t know what’s actually happening. So excited for all the reveals and the journey to all the revelations!
All I could think of when I watched this scene was that this was going to be me before going to sleep tonight. Working in the furniture department sucks XD.
I do recommend it, @vannerie! I thought I’ll end up bored but I totally didn’t! If you know the basic premise though, it takes a while to establish that so you might get impatient. But for me, it was such a delight to get to know the characters that I didn’t mind that the premise took 5 episodes to come by. (Every character though has their own conflict. By basic premise, I mean Lee Joon’s conflict/plot.) They’re all so charming and the actors playing them are charismatic too. The chemistry among everyone (may it be familial or platonic or romantic) is amazing too.
I do think just watch what you can. It’s not entirely bingeable as there’s no cliffhanger and the likes but it brings such a heartwarming and good-natured feel whenever I watch it that I keep on coming back to it. Hope you do give it a try!
Someone just finished BAD GUYS and someone is not okay that the second season is not a sequel but a spinoff. I WANT MY MAD DOGS BACK. What is perfection.
