End-of-the-Year Review: My Most Disappointing/Least Favorite Dramas of 2025
It’s the end of the year which means that it’s time for an End-of-the-Year review! Unfortunately, my journey with K-dramas has deteriorated over the years and it certainly hasn’t been the same (hence, why I haven’t been posting as much on this blog). But every year, there are still a few gems that are released…

[Discuss Away!] Our Unwritten Seoul: Episodes 11-12
I’m struggling to put together the words to write this review post for the final 2 episodes of “Our Unwritten Seoul.” There were tons of crying and sobbing and tissues. There were also moments of laughter and smiles. There were also moments of feeling proud and content and satisfied with the paths that our characters…

[Discuss Away!] Our Unwritten Seoul: Episodes 9-10
Another week of “Our Unwritten Seoul”, another week of solid new episodes! This week’s focus was on Mi-rae’s return to work as well as the backstory behind Kim Ro-sa’s life. For starters, I’m content and satisfied with where the drama went with Kim Ro-sa’s storyline. In all honesty, I wasn’t sure what the drama’s plans…

[Discuss Away!] Good Boy: Episodes 5-6
I felt so conflicted watching this week’s episodes of “Good Boy.” I really wanted to like this drama so much more but I unfortunately was not feeling episodes 5 and 6. I didn’t really like the direction that it went in and although there were still some good parts, I overall felt as if the…

[Discuss Away!] Our Unwritten Seoul: Episodes 7-8
And “Our Unwritten Seoul” does it again! It was another week where I teared up watching the two most recent episodes. All along, the drama has focused on Mi-ji and Ho-su with Mi-rae and Se-jin added in but this time, we got to learn more about Se-jin’s story as well as Ho-su’s Mom. This week’s…

[Discuss Away!] Tastefully Yours: Episodes 9-10
The drama is finally over. It’s finally done. It’s been such an exhausting, frustrating, but also heartwarming experience watching “Tastefully Yours” for the past 5 weeks. Even though the drama was only 10 episodes long, it felt like the longest 5 weeks ever. It felt like a roller coaster ride watching the drama. It felt…

[Discuss Away!] Good Boy: Episodes 3-4
This week’s episodes of “Good Boy” were so fun! Things picked up with the formation of our Olympic Avengers team and we finally got to see them in action with their investigation behind Ju-yeong. I was afraid that episode 3 was a little slow because there wasn’t a whole lot going on, but episode 4…

[Discuss Away!] Our Unwritten Seoul: Episodes 5-6
This week’s episodes of “Our Unwritten Seoul” switched things up a bit by honing in on Ho-su and Mi-ji’s relationship as well as providing progress in the redevelopment project between Kim Ro-sa and Mi-ji’s work company. We also got to see a stranger eventually become a familiar face – one whose identity is still unknown…

[What Mary Thinks] Dear Hongrang, Nine Puzzles, and Pump Up the Healthy Love
I remembered watching the teaser for “Dear Hongrang” when it first came out and being pretty fascinated and impressed at how beautiful the drama looked. Lee Jae-wook in a historical drama was one of the reasons that I wanted to tune in and then the visuals from the teaser also lured me in. So when…

[Discuss Away!] Tastefully Yours: Episodes 7-8
Oh “Tastefully Yours”… what happened to the drama that I loved? I’m quite bummed at how this drama turned out because it started off so well and used to be quite good (once upon a time, I know). Then it went off the rails with episodes 5-7 to the point where I didn’t recognize it…
