I watch a lot of Korean reality / variety shows. I came to this conclusion long ago, when I swore off more than a few decent dramas to catch up on the latest in reality goodness. So with all of my drama neglect guilt I thought it was high time I recommend some more reality/variety … Continue reading
Music is in the air- Cantabile Tomorrow, KBS2’s new Monday/Tuesday drama, premiered this past week. An adaptation of a manga (a famous Japanese drama was also based off of the manga, airing in 2006) Cantabile Tomorrow has thus far shown a quirky and cute side. With a solid cast and a whole lot of buzz … Continue reading
The MBC Wednesday / Thursday drama Fated to Love You ended a few weeks ago via a candy coated fluff of cracktastic rainbow unicorn magic final episode. A remake of a 2008 Taiwanese drama, FtLY was a strong romantic comedy that paired two seasoned actors together as lovers that were…well…fated to be. Time for a … Continue reading

Yep, here at Stone Cities we be having a summer party the only way we know how- by kicking up our feet (louboutin clad feet that is), sipping mojitos, talking about the state of dramas this year and chilling with our guest … Continue reading
So which scenes should be erased entirely? Well, none, but there are plenty that need to be poorly photoshopped. Shady Suk maybe got what was coming to her, there was a “you are my daddy” revelation worthy of Maury Povich, and E-Kun and I talk about how we would have responded to Tae Il’s confession. … Continue reading
After twenty hours of extremely unethical surgery contests, conspiracies, and love Doctor Stranger has come to an end.
