End-of-the-Year Review: My Favorite Dramas of 2023 + Honorable Mentions
Another year means another end-of-the-year review post to cap things off. 2023 was such an interesting year for me in terms of my K-drama experience. I finally managed to keep track of all the dramas and movies that I was watching. It seemed like time traveling and dual timelines was the theme in K-dramaland. I…

[What Mary Thinks] The Matchmakers & Moon in the Day: Episodes 1-2
Two new dramas means another review of first impressions! This time, I share my thoughts on the first 2 episodes of ‘The Matchmakers’ and ‘Moon in the Day’ which both recently premiered this week.

[What Mary Thinks] Castaway Diva: Episodes 1-2
Another year means another Park Eun-bin drama which means another drama added onto my watchlist. Given that Park Eun-bin is one of my favorite actresses, she usually has one drama out a year and I have this thing where I watch that drama. It started with ‘Operation Proposal’ all the way to ‘Extraordinary Attorney Woo’…

K-Movie Review: Soulmate (2023)
Watching Byun Woo-seok in ‘Strong Girl Nam-soon’ reminded me about this movie, so I went back to watch it the other night. ‘Soulmate’ stars Kim Da-mi as Ahn Mi-so (Our Beloved Summer, Itaewon Class) and Jeon So-nee as Go Ha-eun (Our Blooming Youth) – two best friends whose friendship is tested throughout defining moments and…

[PODCAST] Strong Girl Nam-soon: Episodes 5-6 & My Dearest Pt. 2: Episodes 13-14
Another week means another episode to my podcast! This week, I reviewed episodes 5 and 6 of ‘Strong Girl Nam-soon’ as well as episodes 13 and 14 of ‘My Dearest’ part 2. As usual, listen at your own caution for any spoilers and I have to admit – 90% of this episode was focused on…

[What Mary Thinks] Doona!
This one was an interesting one and I definitely didn’t think I would like it as much as I did. ‘Doona!’ follows the complicated relationship between Lee Doona (played by Suzy) and Lee Won-jun (played by Yang Se-jong) as they navigate their careers and life while attempting to keep their relationship together. The drama was…

[PODCAST] Strong Girl Nam-soon: Episodes 3-4 & My Dearest Pt. 2: Episodes 11-12
I sort of got tired of writing so I switched things around this week and recorded me talking for a good 25 minutes to talk about the latest episodes for ‘Strong Girl Nam-soon’ and the second part to ‘My Dearest.’ If you enjoy these podcast episodes, let me know down below in the comments! I’m…

Oh man oh man oh man. I have a lot to say about this one. The highly anticipated Korean movie ‘Concrete Utopia’ starring Lee Byung-hun, Park Seo-joon, and Park Bo-young was finally released this past summer on August 9 after years of waiting and waiting. I for sure was excited for the movie when the…
