What Is Memory ?
Han Ji Min delivers yet another nuanced and unforgettable performance. Yonder is a thought provoking wonder that will live on in one's memory. An intersectional meditation on religion, science and government. Paramount+ and TVing's collaboration is impressive, to say the least. Stunning cinematography and directorial work leaves the viewer so engrossed that time seems to melt away. A stellar cast brings it all back home. The character named Peaches, played by relative newcomer Yoon Yi Reh , is a scene stealer for sure. One of the year's best dramas.Was this review helpful to you?
Drama Special Season 9: Forgotten Season

Speak No Evil
For whatever reason, KBS Drama Specials often seem to fall under the radar, which is a shame,some of the best work in the Korean film and television industry can be found there . Forgotten Season is an unforgettable masterpiece on every level. Hauntingly relevant in the way that it resonates with the selfishness of everyday life. Go Bo Gyeol delivers a career performance, absolutely devastating. Go Min-si and the entire cast are great as well in their respective roles. The tone, delivery and visuals presented by the director are immaculate and flawless . This brilliant piece of filmmaking lingers in the consciousness long after the last image has faded away.Was this review helpful to you?
Truth And Consequences
The trolley dilemma, where truth is elusive and contingent on perspective. Trolley is a slow burner which peels backs the many layers of truth and alters our own perception of it in the process. Chung Su-Bin gives an absolutely mesmerizing, magical performance as a young woman caught in the eye of a storm. A thoughtful, intelligent drama where nothing is quite what it appears to be on the surface . An unflinching and often devastating look at the consequences of the choices we make for the "greater good" .Was this review helpful to you?
Believe In Your Dreams
The fictional idol making company, Starpeace Entertainment, demonstrates painfully how a bad, neglectful, and incompetent record label will destroy the career of aspiring talent. This almost criminally underappreciated Idol drama serves as a dazzling introduction, for the uninitiated, to the wonderful talents of real life idols: Exy , Hani and Sol-bin. While the script is flawed and falters at times, there are some outstanding drama and music scenes with the aforementioned trio of idols that really standout.Idol:The Coup has been a ratings disappointment, ironically mirroring the failure of its fictional idol group Cotton Candy. This drama may ultimately be vindicated, achieving cult classic status with the passage of time as more viewers discover it.
