So many dramas, so little time..!
Looking for advice from the larger community (or of course, from kfangurl, if she has time). I just finished three dramas in a single day and am struggling over what to pick up next. They were “Secret Garden”, “It’s Okay to Not Be Okay”, and “Chuno” (with the group watch). So my three slots to fill would be shows different from the first two and different from each other (while I’ll accede to the group on the Chuno replacement). I’ve given thought to “Hospital Playlist”, “Do You Like Brahms”, “The Beauty Inside” (totally want to see another Seo Hyun-jin vehicle but am saving “Another Miss Oh” for a special occasion), “Stranger”, or “Ms. Queen”.
I often make these whiny requests for suggestions so certainly feel free to roll your eyes and scroll past. I get it.
Take care, all, and stay safe. It’s a hard world out there.
I think Hospital Playlist, Brahms and The Beauty Inside are all good choices! I also feel they are all quite different from the dramas you’ve just finished, so they wouldn’t invite comparison while watching either. ❤️
Wow, thanks for your quick reply! You (and your site) have yet to steer me wrong, so I really appreciate the feedback 😉
Hi @kfangurl – I would like to suggest a daily k-drama – “A Good Supper”. This is my first daily/weekday k-drama and I absolutely love it so far. The show somehow feels both slow and super fast at times. I am amazed at how good the child actors are – The casting is so well done – the child actors personality/portrayal is so similar to the adult actors. I just wish it was a 16 episode k-drama..
Hi kfangurl,
I’ve enjoyed Run On so much and I look forward to your review. The last episode is airing today and I hope it stays on course. I felt compelled to add this comment because I think it deserves a big audience.
The script has been consistently excellent, there is nothing superfluous, and nothing cliched, which is something I cannot say for all of the dramas I’ve watched so far. The actors’ lines make me think; many lines carry layers of meaning and I often had to pause and rewind so I could digest and comprehend all the unspoken things that are being said. I think that the only flaw are the subtitles but to be fair, it’s hard to fault the subtitled/translator because nuances are so difficult to translate. Oh, the many nuances that were lost in translation. The subtitler-nim had a real tough job with this one. This is a drama where I really wished I understood Korean so I could fully appreciate each line. The irony is that the leading female character is a translator / subtitler herself.
The comedic parts made me laugh out loud. And the parts that made me tear up aren’t your typical angst ridden scenes. The ending scene of episode 14 between the two lead characters – I hadn’t realised how it went straight to my heart and I surprised myself when my tears fell. I feel like this is the scene which gives meaning to the title Run On.
This is the first time I’ve watched Yim Siwan’s acting and he has portrayed his cheeky but lonely character so well and naturally that he could be playing himself. I wasn’t a fan of Shin Se Kyung’s stilted acting before but she’s changed my mind with this drama. They both just absolutely click as the leads. The second leads are just as interesting a pair, providing a welcome contrast to the main leads. I applaud the entire supporting cast of characters as well. Shout outs to her roommate, May, with her spot on delivery and deadpan expressions; Mr Jeong, the personal assistant, ditto his deadpan expressions; the younger sister of Ye-Jun; and Woo-sik, the bullied junior athlete, just to name a few. The plot is well-balanced, everyone gets their fair share of screen time.
In addition, the way the scriptwriter has used movies and re-enacted famous movie scenes as a recurrent theme is just so freshly brilliant. Apparently the scriptwriter is a rookie and if that is so, he or she demonstrates a talent in articulating and conveying so well an innate and intimate understanding of human emotions.
In short, Run On is a heartfelt, thoughtful, intelligent and funny gift of a drama. I watched it mostly with a smile on my face. Can’t wait for your review.
Hi Vivie, thanks for sharing your love for Run On! It’s still early days for me, so it’ll be a while yet before I’ll be able to post a review, but your sharing does give me a sense of what I have to look forward to, thank you! ❤️
Hi kfangurl, thanks for your reply. There’s no rush, you’ll get to it when you get to it. I’m happy to say that the last episode stayed consistent to the drama’s quirky nature. I’m satisfied that it was 16 episodes of time well spent. Now, I’ll have to move on, or rather Run On, haha.
I agree with your assessment. I also really enjoyed Run On. It had a unique feel to it and a unique fun ending. KFG you have something to look forward to. Some of the re-enacted movies were lost on me, so I didn’t enjoy them as much as others. Sometimes they were a distraction for me. I particularly enjoyed Im Siwan and the secondary characters–so many wonderful side stories.
Hi lotusgirl, I looked forward to the release of the two episodes each week. I feel like the script for Run On was well researched and thoughtfully written before they had even started shooting. It felt whole. The directing, the costumes, the whole look of the show (colours!) were well planned and executed. Many dramas start well and then fade away, as if they’d changed the scriptwriter along the way and it loses its core. Or the scriptwriter runs out of ideas. Or it’s a rush job. I was disappointed with for eg, Do Do Sol Sol La La Sol, the ending episodes just didn’t gel with the episodes before.
I agree. I was seriously disappointed in the ending of DDSSLLS. Fundamentally, I couldn’t believe the characters’ actions were consistent with who they were. The cop out of the writers. The playing with the emotions of the audience just for the sake of playing with them. Maybe they thought the crazy plot points would be great twists at the end, but the flipflopping was a disaster and left a BAD taste in my mouth. Considering I had loved the show until the end, it’s a real shame. They should have just committed to comedy or tragedy. I felt jerked around.
100 days My Prince. Was interested in seeing more with D. O. after watching Hello Monster. He does deadpan sad eyes better than anybody else doing Korean television! “Is anyone else uncomfortable?” A lonely little boy who finds someone he adores, then loses her, then is a lonely boy and man again until he finds her once more and finds he has something to fight for. The show dragged a bit in the middle. The endless plotting by the minister can be a tiresome trope. But I’ve found I can fast forward through those parts without missing too many plot lines.
I am relatively new to Korean television dramas and films, starting watching them in early 2019, and probably your oldest member at age 70. I absolutely adore them. My husband gets confused when I suddenly start sobbing (Goblin: Lonely and Great God) as I watch with iPad and ear buds. I am making my way through the classics thanks to my Rakuten Viki subscription and watching new ones on Netflix and sometimes Prime Video, which has a better selection of movies than it does television dramas. I get frustrated because I can’t find the really early ones anywhere. Not available most sites.
Hi, I’m actually currently holding a Goblin watch party. Let me know if you wanna join. 🙂
Hi, SoOld….[skipping the rest because I DO TOO], you’d be surprised that there are some relatively , uh, experienced folk around here. Welcome to this awesome community.
I also enjoy watching older shows between the newer ones, just as I enjoy watching old movies and listening to classical music. I’ve been watching older dramas, like you, on Viki, or Viu, or one of those Sites That Must Not Be Named. I’ve found that patience helps: I watched “My Girlfriend Was a Gumiho” on Viu but it has emerged on Viki more recently.
You might consider joining the next group watch following Chuno; it’s been a wonderful way to connect with a lot of KD fans.
Goblin is on my to-do list but I’m not quite ready to go onto my destination watch list yet. But that’s a story for another post…I’ve been watching older dramas, like you, on Viki, or Viu, or one of those Sites That Must Not Be Named.
I really look forward to hearing your reviews on these, especially Uncanny Counter and 100 days.
Uncanny Counter is fun. It is a bit dark (makes going to school in Korea look almost as dangerous as going to maximum security prison in the USA). But the characters are fun and well drawn. So I’m enjoying seeing their histories and back stories come out bit by bit. Especially Ha Na (the actress playing her, Kim Se-Jeong, does a great job of expressing the sadness and compassion in this character, little of which is in the script but rather in her expressions, well done). Something to look forward to seeing every weekend.
100 days my prince – I bet you will really will enjoy this one. These period pieces usually aren’t my preferred type of drama, but this one is very well done. Some of the best points (no major spoilers):
1. Most of the evil characters aren’t really depraved but have their own motivations and problems. There is maybe one character who just needs to be put down (stock Joseon evil courtier, you know if you’ve watched episode 1), but you end up hoping most everyone else does ok. And you end up hoping for a happy ending for most of them. (3 episodes to go, I cannot spoil this for you because I don’t know what will happen to them!)
2. The characters who are smart, often act intelligently and reason things out (especially the ML, who is supposed to be smart and well educated – and then generally acts that way). He does seem a bit clueless immediately after the memory loss (a negative of this show, the human memory system does NOT work this way where you can forget who you are but retain all your other knowledge. It just doesn’t). But we can get over that and maybe chalk up some of his behavior to the head injury. But then he starts to use his brain, reason through problems, pick up when things others are telling him don’t make sense. Good writing.
3. Mostly the costumes and make-up are reasonable and characters look realistic. They avoid the big pitfall of these shows (and kdrama in general) of having everyone look too good or out of place. Poor students who wear $400,000 worth of coats in one winter, the workaholic chef with a $500 haircut… One exception – did bad guy assassins in Joseon really dress in black like ninjas? Really? They couldn’t just wear the same sort of outfit as normal “good” soldiers? They would actually be much scarier if they looked like totally normal guys until they act.
4. The angst and conflict seems to evolve naturally from the story so far and does not seem excessive or gratuitous. The forces driving ML and FL apart arise logically rather than coming from stupid misunderstandings that could be resolved with one adult conversation, or from noble stupidity or childish behaviors. (The problems ML and FL have where I am in ep 13 are serious and not trivial even though the are trying to do the right thing and be honest with each other. The have REAL problems pulling them apart).
5. FL is strong and brave without needing to be crazy unrealistically physically strong martial artist.
Happy watching and happy holidays – thank you for all the great tips!
EL
are you thinking about adding kairos ? i havent started it yet but have heard all good things about it . Also suggesting “Our sister’s soulmate”, a japanese drama. It’s kind of healing one and I love it and fell so positive watching it .
Hey Fangurl! Just had a quick question, I was considering watching Flower Boy Ramyun Shop and was wondering what your thoughts were on the show if you have seen it. Hope you are doing well 🙂
Good luck with Some Day or One Day! It is a long investment period (over half the show) but once you get to the midpoint, boy, does it ever pay off! I was writing timelines on paper and discussing plot theories with my friend on several late nights. The soundtrack is incredible and I really wish I could rewatch it with fresh eyes/mind for the surprise of all the plot twists. Alas, it is so memorable that it’s been over half a year and I still can’t forget! Taiwanese dramas have really suffered from an exodus of talent and budget in the past decade so I was thrilled to see this gem.
Would also recommend The World Between Us for another spectacular recent TW drama that is thought provoking and culturally important (especially in today’s environment).
Glad to see uncanny counter on the watchlist! Had no expectations for this show but the opening week was surprisingly good (and different) and with Start Up ending it looks to be the only show I am excited for thats airing. Basically the opposite of Awaken, which I had high expectations for and had a pretty bleh opening week 🙁
Dear Kfangurl.
did you drop “do do sol sol la la sol” i was really looking foward to your thoughts on that drama. i have watched up till episode 10 and don’t know if i should continue
I really enjoyed do do sol sol la la sol up until about episode 12, and didn’t have any huge problems with it until the last couple. But the way they ended this show was a mess. I won’t spoil it for you entirely that but it involves painful shifts in tone into angst for now good reason. And dropping several plot threads that could have been weaved into the light heart, happy, funny ending the show deserved. I felt like I had to see it through (you may feel the same) but ouch, still hurting from this one.
Sympathy.
Oh yay, I hope you enjoy it as much as I did!
@kfangurl, Hi
Wow i see u moved 18 again & start up and moved down Lies & Lies to the soonish.
Can’t wait for the 18 again (I REALLY LIKED THIS ONE) and start up (BECAUSE OF THE SECOND MALE LEAD) reviews
Indeed, 18Again has been such a surprise! ^^ If a drama, which isn’t particularly marketed as ‘sad’ succeeds to bring an occassional tear to my eye with its beautiful/ heartfelt moments and then effortlessly switch pace and make me laugh without missing a beat, it has already reached a gold-standard (according to me). Looking forward to @kfangurl’s words on this. I picked it up because of her rec, afterall! ❤️❤️
Hi fangurl!
I think you mentioned feeling a bit of drama fatigue/slump and I can relate a bit because the current batch of shows has very little appeal for me and I feel like I have almost run out of shows from the past I want to watch as well. I wasn’t sure if you ever got around to trying My Strange Hero, which I believe I saw on a list of maybes for a year end list. If you haven’t, wanted to recommend giving it a try. It touches on a lot of the cozy school themes that I really enjoy and the OTP is hearts in my eyes adorable. This is complete and total puppy love and Yoon Seung Ho and Jo Boa were like a combination of rainbows and sunshine :). There is also some meatier substance in the character dynamics of our main 3 but it never felt like that dragged down the overall tone of cute, happy, and more cute. I hope I convinced you to at least give it a try, and hope you are doing well 🙂
Hi Kun, thanks for thinking of me! ❤️ I did dip a toe into My Strange Hero while it was airing, but I’d had a bit of drama fatigue at the time, and what I did see of E1 didn’t grab me. I’ve heard good things about it though, so I might still check it out sometime in the future. 🙂 In the meantime, I’m happy to say that I’ve started on TW drama Someday Or One Day, and 3 eps in, am loving it a lot. If you haven’t seen it, I do recommend it. 😀
Thank you for the recommendation, the plot sounds quite interesting if a little confusing will give it a try 🙂
I went in blind, and I’ve found that it actually helps a lot to not know what to expect, when it comes to enjoying this show! 😀 I hope you’ll enjoy it!
Only bad new dramas this year. Really hard to find good stuff these days.
Glad you will be watching “more than friends” I almost dropped it after ep 2 . But it actually gets bettwer with more and more episode . Ong Seong Wu is so amazing here and so different from “moment at eighteen”. It is really pretty drama with great visuals .
Hello kfangurl!!!
Because of Halloween & Autumn season, I have been switching out my fluffy k-drama diet for darker, psychological offerings.
Was pleasantly surprised to stumble across a j-dorama called Watashitachi wa Douka Shiteru (aka ‘is something wrong with us?’). If 1.murder mystery with slight-makjang reveal; 2.background setup of quaint traditional japanese sweet-making; 3. fast paced story (8 one-hour episodes); 4. revenge plot with a dash of conflicted romance….. <3
sounds interesting, you could check it out 🙂
also, bonus is the eye-candy actor (plus faithful acting to the manga version)
I enjoyed this gem of a series (Watashitachi wa Douka Shiteiru ) too! Kept me in it’s hooks all the way. Bits of Japanese tradition plus mystery, murder and a star-crossed love – sweet!
I also just finished watching Watashitachi wa Douka Shiter. I found it to be seamless and definitely had me excited to watch subsequent episodes. I will be looking for the same actors and producer for other gems.azy
Absolutely agreed, pacing was one of the highlights of this show! ^^ The fact that it can be finished off on a single Sunday, is an extra cherry on the cake. The lead actors…well what to say?!! I have been left as a SERIOUS fan!
Haha! I immediately checked out other works they’ve been in. I think they’ve grown as actors in this show and the pacing was indeed on point, never a dull moment.
I love your reviews and it is so detailed. I know you have many dramas in your plate. So I want to recommend you Chinese drama ” Perfect and Casual “and “waiting for you in the future”. I hope when you will be free,you can give it a try . They are both a gem. Waiting for your review on Into the ring. Love you very much❤❤❤❤❤.
i think since kfangurl has already watched (and loved) BTIMFL, there is a chance she might not like Perfect & Casual as much, because the character and plot setups are pretty similar. it almost appears as a Beta/ Lite version of k-drama. Nonetheless, I quite liked watching it though, despite finding BTIMFL as the much superior/ well-written one! 🙂
Ooh, good to know! Thanks for the context, CarpControl! SO HELPFUL! 😃❤️😘
Hi fangurl 🙂
No clue if you will see my comment but wanted to recommend Start Up. Its another Park Hye-ryun show and I know how much you enjoyed I can hear your voice, Pinnochio, and Dream High. Has the trademarks of her show so far, well written lovable characters with strong dynamics with each other. I know you aren’t fond of Suzy but I find her to be solid so far in the show, and the more exciting dynamic is between the two male leads which I know you will love 🙂
Thanks for the endorsement of Start-Up, Kun! I did enjoy IHYV, Pinocchio and Dream High! You are so right, I was hesitating over whether to try Start-Up because of Suzy. But I’ve heard enough encouraging things (that she’s not terrible, and some people even say she’s improved), so it’s now on my list. Thanks for thinking of me! ❤️😘
Hi Fangurl – Just want to say that there is a lot of heart in this drama. In my humble opinion Kim Sun-Ho and Kim Hae-Sook are the stars of this show. It is getting a little wonky and the writers need to reel it back in, but even with that the two aforementioned actors make it worthwhile.
Thanks phl! Always good to have a bit of context, so that I can manage my expectations accordingly! ❤️
FYI Fangurl – Did I just jinx Start Up by saying wonky too soon? I rarely have these kind of reactions but I just finished E10 where, for almost its entirety, I was yelling at my screen. LOL! So sad as it had so much potential. I hope if you watch you enjoy this FG. I am going to have to drop it.
Oh, dang that the show aggravated you so much, phl! 😝 I’ve started on it, and am enjoying it quite well so far, so I won’t jump the gun, and hope that somehow E10 doesn’t aggravate me as much..! 😅 If it does, I have the option of dropping it too! 😆
Hi! I’d love to read a review of The Sleuth of the Ming Dynasty if you ever watch it. I found it incredibly fun and well done.
Thanks for the suggestion, rookie! I’ve added it to my list so that I don’t forget – but no promises that I will be able to watch it, because that list is huge and neverending! 😝😅
Hah, I can imagine! I’d almost recommend leaving this one for when you’re in a slump, because it definitely worked that way for me. It’s all found family and bromance and sleuthing (and political machinations and state-sponsored violence, but what can you do). Then again the leads were so appealing I watched two other incredibly mediocre shows just to see more of them, so maybe it’s not the best slump advice…
Appealing leads, found family and bromance are some of my favorite things! I will have to bump it up the list, thanks rookie! 🙂
Do you plan on watching Dinner Mate? I don’t know how it got low ratings, I thoroughly enjoyed it and loved Seo Ji-hye in it! Maybe I was a little biased because I felt like she got shafted so bad in CLOY. Would love to read your thoughts on Dinner Mate.
I hope you get around to check out this show called “Live” (if you haven’t already)
It stars Jung Yumi and Sung Dong il. And Its available on Netflix
It was a new find for me. Feels like a good slice of life show,
Revolving around the lives of Patrolling police officers.
Oh i have just started it. To be honest, i love such dramas – like my mister and prison playbook etc but live has been really slow for the first two episodes? Does it get better soon?
ah, can’t wait for your review on Flower of Evil. Loved that show <3
I’m still watching it right now (I know, I’m always so behind everyone!), so it’ll be a while before the review comes out. Thanks for looking forward to it, it’s cominggg (probably next month 😅)
I’m especially loving “Do You Like Brahms?” right now. I’m starting Record of Youth today, since I now have to wait for more eps. of DYLB. I also finally watched Reply 1988. What an amazing show! Thanks for recommending it.
Hey, K. Good to see that you’re picking up Flower of Evil–nothing too graphic here, fortunately. 😂 Well-paced plot and great acting by Joon-gi and Chae-won. 🤗
And because mystery melos (with a dash of romance) 😂 are clearly my niche, I’ve picked up Lie After Lie. The premise–a woman (who may or may not be an ex-con), pretends to fall in love with a man who adopted her daughter, to be her daughter’s stepmom–seems right uo my alley.
On the lighter side, School Nurse Files seems to be a fresh quirky comedy, while 18 Again looks an interesting fantasy romance, ala Familiar Wife 😂
Do you watch any thai series?
Hi! I love your blog and I constantly check your watching list. Looking forward to your reviews of the dramas you are watching currently! (Especially Someday or Oneday, I loved that show!)
PS: I would highly recommend watching The Untamed! It made this lockdown not as terrible for me and I am sure it would brighten your life as well! ^^
Thanks for enjoying the blog, sydia! 🙂 I do plan to check out Someday Or One Day, when I have some extra time. Right now my hands are full working on the dramas currently on my plate, plus the technical issues that the blog’s been experiencing. 😅
I’ve had The Untamed recommended to me many times! I will give it another try when I’m in the mood for some xianxia.. I think I overdosed a little bit before, and now don’t find myself in the mood for it. 😝
I will start out with saying this, I love your blog!!!
As I have gotten older, I have gotten much more selective with what I watch. Unlike in my hay days where I watched anything and everything. And the lovely part of it all is that when I discovered your blog, I found shows you had rated not so well (which people loved) were also shows I had similarly not liked so much. I had finally found a source that did not follow what the public opinion of a show was and just gave their honest opinion about things which in most cases perfectly matched my tastes. (Thank you so much for unintentionally being my mind twin). Now, your opinions on a show is a solid go to for me before starting anything new.
P.S. Do give The Untamed a try, you might be surprised. (If you haven’t read the novel, first 3 episodes might be confusing) but do give it a shot when you have time
Aw, so happy that you love the blog, Abhinanda! ❤️ And how cool, that we seem to have similar tastes in dramas!! Hi5! 😀 Super glad that you found me, and I’m so happy to know that you find the reviews useful! Thanks for the recommendation on The Untamed.. I’ve had that suggested so many times, I ought to give it a 2nd look. I haven’t been in the mood for xianxia for a while, though. I will give it a try when I next find myself ready for some xianxia! 🙂
I would be interested to see your review on Someday or One Day. I’ve finished watching it and I loved it!
Glad you enjoyed it, Joy! I have to confess I haven’t had the time to start on it yet.. but I hope to, after I’ve cleared some space on my drama plate! 🙂
curious on what you think of the king eternal monarch!
I won’t know for sure until I get to the end, but so far, it’s not bad! 😉
Can’t wait to read your review on Its okay not to be okay!
The review is coming! I’ve still got a bit more to go in my watch, and then I can start writing the review! 🙂 Stay tuned!
This is a tip for those who periodically browse for recent comments to KFG’s Currently Watching post.
There are now five pages worth of comments and replies. Unfortunately — and for reasons outside her control — the oldest page lists first, starting with a comment by Rainbow on December 17, 2012.
Here’s how to advance quickly from the Joseon era to modern times:
1. Click the “End” key on your keyboard to jump to the very bottom of the page
2. Find and click the light blue link for “Newer Comments” to advance to page #2
3. Repeat those steps four times to advance to the most recent comments
The good news is that once you make it to page #5 the newest comment will be at the very top.
Thanks MeriJ! I’m so sorry you guys are having trouble with the blog being glitchy about this. Let me try to take it up with WordPress Help again tomorrow, and see if I can’t get someone to look into this. The last tech I got assumed all my glitchy troubles were because of my expired theme, but now that I’ve changed to a non-expired theme, we’re still having issues. Hopefully we can get this sorted out so that you guys don’t have to acquire a new set of skills just to hang out here! 😝
Well, I know I’m not going anywhere no matter the version/format. 😘
AW! That makes me happy to hear, Beez!! 🥰❤️😘 So good to know that you plan on sticking around! ❤️
Within your WordPress account, there are four places you can tweak how your receive notifications of new comments others have made:
1. The system-wide default setting is made at Notification Settings/Comments. That’s where you say you want to be notified by email anytime someone “likes” or replies to a comment you’ve made on any WordPress blog.
2. When you make a comment to a specific post, there’s a box you can check saying you want to be notified by email of any new comment to that post, even if it’s not a reply to one of yours.
3. If you want to change HOW or WHEN you receive notifications, system-wide, go to Notification Settings/Reader Subscriptions. The options for email notification are: instantly, daily or weekly. If you choose daily or weekly, you can specify when you want them. (If you choose instant, it only works most of the time, but whatever…)
4. If you want to see ALL new comments for a specific blog, including ones on posts/sections you haven’t commented on yourself and therefore might not care about — go to Notification Settings/Reader Subscriptions/Use the Reader (where “Use the Reader” is light blue font in the first sentence at the top of the page.
A list of blogs you are following will appear — although for some reason it probably won’t include the ones you actually care about. Weird. So if you don’t see KFG, paste The KFG Verdict’s URL in the search bar that says “Search or enter URL to follow….”
Add her blog, then open the Settings cog to the far right once it populates and enable the third option: “Email me new comments.” Again, this will be ALL new comments, anywhere on the site, so definitely not the best choice for everyone. (Beez, in your case, this is the setting change you need to undo from earlier in the week.)
Have just put in a recommendation:
Empress Ki
;-p
Anyone here watching Was It Love on Netflix? I’ve only watched the trailer and read a review, but it looks pretty good. Six episodes have aired thus far.
The premise sounds a teeny bit like Love is A Bonus Book — woman in her later 30s with a daughter, frozen out of the job market. Except in this case, she aspires to be a film or K-Drama producer.
It stars Song Ji-hyo plus four, count em, four male suitors: Son Ho-Jun,Song Jong-Ho, Kim Min-Jun and Koo Ja-Sung.
I saw that merij1 – was wondering if I should watch or not. I may take a peek after my FoS1|2 commitment is complete.
I hope you do a review on romance of tiger and rose! 🙂
I do plan to write a post on Tiger and Rose when I finish it, stay tuned! 🙂
YAYYY!! 😀
This new format is interesting. I find myself not liking that it sends me posts for shows I’m not interested in (easy fix to just delete them though) but I really don’t like that I’m getting comments for shows that I plan to watch but haven’t yet. But then again, I like getting comments like this that reveal parts of the blog that I didn’t even know existed!
That’s weird? You mean this new theme/template on the blog sends you emails on comments for the whole site, even though you didn’t opt for it? 🧐
It’s not your new format, it’s changes Beez and I made to our WordPress accounts for how this blog sends notifications. Beez, you changed yours to say you want notification of all comments from this specific blog. So you need to retrace your steps on that. I’ll post instructions in a few minutes.
Ahh! Thanks MeriJ! So glad you actually know what’s going on! <3
@kfangurl – Yup. I wonder if that’s the result of me playing with the settings? Even though I was already subscribed to the blog, it didn’t show up in my subscriptions so I searched and added it. I then selected send me comments “instantly”. I’ll have to find my way back to that part of my WordPress account to see if I did something to cause me to start receiving EVERYthing. I saw someone else said they’re getting it that way to. It was either merij1 or Geo (I think)
That was MeriJ. He says you can change the settings in your WP account; he mentioned he would post instructions soon, on how to do that. 🙂
Got it. I started to not be lazy and try to figure it out on my own but real life is calling. I’ll watch for his instructions (thanks merij1) and if he can’t get to it, when I come back to the blog, I’ll try to figure it out.
Just finished Hi Bye, Mama and now started Coffee Prince and Come Hug Me. I absoltely loved My Mister. I basically binge watched it. Ops!
Thanks to Netflix, I have started watching K-drama a couple of years ago and I’m totally amazed by the number of series there. Wow. Anyway… I’m a novice really. Happy to have found your website. Thanks for sharing! 감사합니다
Welcome to the wonderful world of dramas! 😀 Being a novice is great, coz that means you have so much more to explore! 😀 I hope you’ll find the reviews helpful in figuring out which shows work for you! <3
