Twinkling Watermelon | K-Drama Review
Twinkling Watermelon (Source: tvN) I did something that I usually do not do, and that is to start a series before it has finished airing. I am binge-watcher so I can’t stand to wait for weekly episodes, but after watching some short fan clips I couldn’t resist. The chemistry, the story was really appealing and […]

Nevertheless | K-Drama Review
Source: JTBC After finishing the series I looked through some reviews, and many people thought Nevertheless was boring which I found weird because I never during the series thought it was boring.

I have heard and seen a lot of good reviews of the original series La casa de papel. I have never seen it, but I think I almost have to see it at this point because I quite liked the Korean remake. The Money Heist: Korea – Joint Economic Area has only released 6 episodes […]

Our Beloved Summer | K-Drama Review
I went in with no expectations, I actually read the brief synopsis which did turn me off, but in the end I found an amazing realistic emotional romance drama.

Start-Up | K-Drama Review
I started watching Start-Up because of Nam Joo-hyuk’s amazing performance in Twenty Five Twenty One. The series started well – I liked the flow of the story and there were some great scenes, but I didn’t get particularly attached to any of the characters and after the time skip the whole series lost me. The […]
