Catching up after a couple of weeks away!
Finished:
—Mad Dog This was a shared Beanie fanwall watch, which made it more fun! It wasn’t as good as I thought it would be, but Woo Do-hwan was awesome, and I really liked Cheetah and Pentium. KANG!😎
—W: Two Worlds Fascinating plot, and excellent twists and turns! It was a cracky, fun ride. The violence got to be a lot, and the show’s stance on freewill and autonomy was kind of depressing. But it had a nice ending!
Watching:
—While You Were Sleeping (through ep. 6). Ooh, a timey-wimey thriller! I really like the mechanics of how the dreams work and are interconnected. The first episode could be viewed as a standalone drama special, or very short movie. Jung Hae-in is a ray of sunshine – why isn’t he the ML?? **Cue Cheetah’s voice: 왜 왜 왜???**
C-dramas:
—I’ve Fallen For You Finished. It’s not your average fluffy costume drama! It’s not dubbed, and is absolutely hilarious with bawdy, slapstick humor (especially in the first 4 eps). It has more first loves than you can shake a stick at, but the ML falls in love with the FL **despite not being each other’s first loves!** Also, props to the female love rival for taking psycho to exciting new heights.👏
–Still slowly watching, and thoroughly enjoying, Joy of Life. Looking forward to season 2! Lots of complex politics, and the ML is so dynamic and interesting. Uncle Wu Zhu is super cool!
— Finished the two mini-dramas Provoke (Republic-era; watched on Prime) and A Familiar Stranger (costume drama; watched on Viki). Both are by the same production team, and their unique visual style shows. Slick, stylish, a little spicy, very dramatic, with gasp-worthy plot twists and positive endings, I’d highly recommend both.
Up Next: I’m starting Castaway Diva! Park Eun-bin picks good dramas, so I think I’m safe in feeling excited for this? And Beanies have given the all clear, so I’ve got Kidnapping Day on deck to try as my next thriller (though it may be too dark for me). Likely going to try Twinkling Watermelon, which seems like the warm time-travel family drama of My Perfect Stranger, minus the torture and serial killer?
