Doses of K-pop, K-drama, Hollywood and Literary FUN!
Hey Lovers💗Wow. I know. It’s been agesssssss. I can’t remember the last time I sat down to review a Korean drama. In the last two and a half years, both stressful and wonderful (actually, dreamlike) things have happened to me. But whether life was going well or not, within those years, I just couldn’t muster …

This list is a homage to the K-dramas that were not released in 2023, but ones I found myself watching and enjoying so much—well, maybe not so much for the last drama mentioned. Regardless, these dramas were extremely touching, immersive, and commanding in their own ways, and I couldn't stop myself from looking back upon …

Before starting anything, I have to say this first: If not for the dramas on this list, it would’ve been SOOOOO easy for me to call 2023 K-dramas completely disappointing. Yes, the year started off great, but once certain dramas of the 2nd-3rd quarter started to roll in, particularly the big name dramas (don't even …

First things first, I can't express enough how giddy I was when I found out Jung Kyung-ho would be starring in a rom-com. I loved him SOOOOO much in Hospital Playlist. He was hands down my favourite amongst the doctor squad. Not only he was studiously handsome, reserved, charismatic, and surprisingly romantic, he was HILARIOUS. …

Guys. Our Blues is one stellar piece of work. My jaw dropped too many times watching it. All I could think of every other minute was how ridiculously talented whoever wrote the drama was. Noh Hee-kyung helmed the screenplay and apparently, she is a star writer in Korea responsible for acclaimed dramas like, It's Okay, …

Before I finally decided to check out this high-school drama, I would always see caveats like – “Beware, it’s extremely violent” or “It has very dark and inhumane scenes” – and they would stop me from checking out the drama despite the same comments lauding its praises.

Towards the end of last year, I saw viral pictures of renowned singer-songwriter and actress, IU (Lee Ji-eun), at the Cannes Film Festival's screening of Broker. She looked angelic in her beautiful gown and the movie was garnering hype, so I googled what Broker was about. I came to understand that she was playing the …

Now that I've reviewed the best K-dramas I watched in 2022 as well as the ones I moderately enjoyed, here come the ones I deem to be bad and highly flawed: Money Heist: Korea-Joint Security Area Nothing to say here. It was a very mediocre, boring version of the real thing. There was hardly anything …
