Drama crack. That is what I see in the new drama Pinocchio and that is a dangerous description –because it ends up with me in my basement watching ten episodes in one day (which as a live watch is unfortunately not possible, aish) while devouring a tub of ice cream and wondering how in the … Continue reading
The skeleton war is almost over, which means November is fast approaching. There are three weekday dramas premiering in the next month, and sadly only one of them makes me think of a whale’s stomach.

What kind of evil mastermind or masquerading hero can get by without a secret hideout? Um, only the unsuccessful ones. I just finished watching Joseon Gunman’s eighth episode and I had one of those moments – “OH, so that is Yoon Kang’s super-secret hideout. Hah! Really? I have seen so much better. Pffft.” Because, yes, … Continue reading
