[Discuss Away!] Strangers Again: Episodes 7-8

This week’s episodes of ‘Strangers Again’ probably had to be my favorite so far.. which doesn’t say all that much because it’s a show where I’ve relatively enjoyed all the episodes so far. But I point this out because our main characters, Ha-ra and Eun-beom, were the primary focus in episodes 7 and 8 and…

[What Mary Thinks] Our Blooming Youth: Episodes 1-2

Woo hoo hoo! I didn’t realize how much I missed watching Park Hyung-sik on my small screen and how much I missed watching Park Hyung-sik on my small screen in a sageuk until I saw the teaser for this drama and then proceeded to watch episodes 1 and 2. As expected, Park Hyung-sik did not…

[Discuss Away!] Crash Course in Romance: Episodes 7-8

It amazes me how dramas are able to make the most common and mundane things that people do in daily life so magical, charming, and wholesome. It’s fascinating how dramas are able to make the most out of something small and how they make something out of nothing. ‘Crash Course in Romance’ continues to impress…

[Discuss Away!] The Forbidden Marriage: Episodes 5-12

I’ve been in a bit of a slump so I haven’t been posting on here as much, but don’t fret – I’ve still been keeping up with my dramas (or least with ‘The Forbidden Marriage.’ I may or may not write a follow-up post of my thoughts about ‘Alchemy of Souls Season 2’ and ‘The…

[What Mary Thinks] The Interest of Love: Episodes 1-2

Patience. This drama is going to require me to have so much patience and I’m going to need so much more of it if I want to complete this show. ‘The Interest of Love’ was a drama that I was excited for upon hearing about it. Unlike many other dramas, I actually ended up watching…

[Discuss Away!] The Forbidden Marriage: Episodes 3-4

I don’t think there was ever any doubt that I wasn’t going to come back and watch the two latest episodes to this drama. I was pleasantly surprised and impressed with how ‘The Forbidden Marriage’ started and I wanted to keep tuning in to see how the drama progressed in its second week. Safe to…

I kind of like this one, I kind of like this one! I enjoyed this one a lot more than I thought I would and I’m definitely going to keep tuning in. A king who can’t forget about his late Crown Princess who died a mysterious death? A court maid who pretends to channel the…
