I’m currently playing ‘drama catch up’ in an attempt to finish a few dramas and stay on top of a couple of others. I’ve finished A Gentleman’s Dignity and enjoyed it. It wasn’t a perfect drama, and I lost interest in most of it toward the end, but it was still better than most Korean dramas of the last year. I’m still watching Bridal Mask and am ( Read more... )

I have finally finished Strange Hero Yi Zhi Mei. I really enjoyed the show. It had some major flaws, especially in regard to its female characters and its last story arc ( Read more... )

The Holy Pearl is a "fantasy-mythology" series that is loosely based on the Japanese manga/anime Inuyasha. I say loosely, because aside from the basic plot and a few similar characters, it really is a new story. (Though, I do think the creator of Inuyasha would have a good case if she decided to sue ( Read more... )

Strange Hero Yi Zhi Mei is beyond addictive! With these four episodes, we end the flashback arc and start the final arc of the series ( Read more... )

Strange Hero Yi Zhi Mei continues to be the best wuxia my f-list isn't watching. (Why, f-list?! WHY?)The show - like many wuxia series - has "mini" arcs, with an overlapping series long arc.

With episodes nineteen-twenty-two, we finish up Xiao Mei's family mystery and start with a series of flashback episodes.

I thought I'd give everyone (including myself) an update on what I'm watching. Since most of the series are half-way over, I thought it would also be a good time to discuss how I'm liking and disliking about the shows and where I think/hope they are going. (Spoiler Warnings for the drama!)

( Despite wanting rom-coms, I'm barely watching them )

Lately I've found myself itching for a good wuxia/historical c-drama.I've started on Paladin in Troubled Times, and dispute some issues with the male lead, I've enjoyed it. Since I don't have much going on this summer, I have a lot of time to marathon dramas, which means I'm nearly done with Paladin. (It helps that I fast forward through the ( Read more... )
