On Tale of the Nine-Tailed Dec 5, 2020
Very quickly realised this really wasn't for me, I spent just about all the episodes I watched shaking my head and going 'What?'. Maybe I'll try again when desperate but for now...dropped.

Title Mr. Duke
Pleasant and serviceable romantic comedy with many famous faces. Nothing amazing but a fun watch all the same.

Made it to episode six but that's enough for me. Just too shallow and saccharine sweet for my tastes. Go A Ra doing a Shirley Temple version of Shopping King Louie is pretty funny in places but not enough to save it.
Soft focus pastel palette, pretty boys with sunshine halos, fun with the Ajummas, plenty of piano and a stupid looking dog in doll clothes. It's probably described as heartfelt somewhere. If that appeals watch and enjoy.
Dropped

I'm having a great deal of difficulty remembering what happened in each episode. In fact I've just realised I'm watching an episode for the second time. I'm only on episode three...

Wow! This is surprisingly good (so far). I've passed this by for a while now because of the synopsis but I'm glad I gave it a chance. Can't wait to see what happens next!!

Review The Heirs
Dropped this after 2 episodes, did not like anything about it. Glad it was not our first Asian drama or we would…
I got into one of those terrible loops where you keep hoping it gets better whilst trying to skip past all the worst bits. I can't believe I got that far with it.

Brilliant! Total nonsense where the laws of space, time, physics and common sense mean nothing. Hysterically funny…
They did! Entertaining twaddle right to the end. 6.5 for the laughs, judicious use of skip button recommended.

Brilliant! Total nonsense where the laws of space, time, physics and common sense mean nothing. Hysterically funny in all the wrong places. I hope they can keep it going.

I am honestly, just not seeing it. I can't even see the regular emotions much on her face in this drama.
That's a shame it really helped me enjoy this one. I had just watched Spring Turns to Spring though so perhaps that's why I saw it more than yourself.

Made it another couple of episodes in but the whole school bully cock measuring contest(not literally, figuratively) is hard to bear.

Title The Heirs
I finally got round to giving this a go and managed up to episode 6 before I needed to take a break (or drop it?).
Two main problems so far:
!) most of the people are horrible.
2) there is little to no chemistry between any of the leads

And really 2 is the worst problem. You know you have a problem when the relationship between the main leads mothers is far more convincing and heart warming than theirs.
I did really appreciate the asking for her phone number in LAX scene, definitely a 'well done. my dear!' moment.

"The typical female lead in current K-dramas is usually an unfeminine mean woman with narcissistic traits who treats others like s***, especially men" Examples please, I'm curious to see if we agree.

Lee Yoo Ri has such a versatile face, it changes so much from expression to expression. I keep getting those Bom Bom Bom! moments though. Surprisingly enjoyable so far.

On The Lies Within Oct 25, 2020
Tried this but it got too annoying too quick. Murder method too random, cops too stupid and incapable of following procedure, caricature police woman. Not for me.

On Do You Like Brahms? Oct 23, 2020
Didn't make it very far with this, slow and dripping with meaningfulness in every long scene of nothing much. The FL was a terrible drip as well.

On Flower of Evil Oct 22, 2020
Well, perhaps not surprisingly, this isn't my bag.
Serial killer programs are rarely something I enjoy watching as they often disguise lazy writing.
Here the thriller parts are overdone, plenty of long drawn out moments, will he won't he stuff and suspenseful music with little substance. For all the twists and turns it's all just a bit too glib, a bit too designed to thrill. Though they did their best to stick a 'different' twist on it all.

The leads act well and on the whole are ably supported, so if you like this sort of thriller give it a go.
It you want something a little more cerebral try Nobody Knows.
Dropped.

Title One Spring Night Spoiler
Uhh, I really can't stand the female lead, if she wasn't happy with her boyfriend of four years she should have…
I'm with you on this - I started a rewatch recently and I'm struggling with her courting the ML whilst still going out with her boyfriend who is still talking about marriage. I get that life isn't cut and dried, that things can take you by surprise etc. but when you realise you want to break up with your partner and see someone else then that is what you should do. Full stop.
