After a solid start, I felt the story fell apart very quickly during eps 9 & 10. There are some really good characters in this show with sparks of storyline potential, but I’m watching some lengthy daily dramas right now that have much better stories going on (they started off bad, but improved quite a bit). So, I’m hoping the next couple of episodes of MHL can set up/ build better story arcs.

Heartwarming, with some beautiful moments between “Mum” and each member of her family.

I really like the little misdirects here and there in Miss Ma - classic murder mystery scenes.

Yes, I think she is alive and somebody else was substituted for her

Hello Joanne, I was incorrect re About Time. I am now trying to think where I watched HSY do a very stunning dance routine, as she has a background in the theatre (and the frustrating thing is I made a comment about it at the time and I can’t track it down - so sorry about that). I gave away About Time during the third episode - despite the amazing cast (inc HSY), I found it very disappointing.

The dance routine at the end of episode 3 - beautiful (HSY also did a fabulous dance routine in the first episode of About Time)

Yes, I agree. It wasn’t needed at all. And, as you say, it is a nice drama.

Episode 1 is a wow for me. Such a passionate and delightful start.

Sa Ra’s character is fabulous. I like your comment re her being a soft little bean on the inside. Similar thoughts sprung to my mind during the latest episodes i.e. she is soft like a marshmallow inside. The scene where she is on the lounge watching tv before Eun Ho comes home is delightful. I hope there is a future for these two - they deserve it. I guess we will have to wait and see when she calls for him down the track.

18 episodes in - this is a very special show.

I think you need to at least watch yesterday’s episodes and see for yourself. However, I zoomed through them except for a couple of scenes that were quite good re JC and his interactions with his wife (who also had some sobering moments) and daughter.

I really enjoyed Naked Soldier. Anything with Sammo in it is always worth a watch. It has really good action scenes throughout, some fun moments and is well put together: 8/10

I went “will I, or won’t I” so many times. Then after today’s eps (which had some good moments) I finally made the decision it’s a fail. There’s no wild card this time from me :-)

Today’s the day after the latest episodes, so regretfully, I say goodbye to BP - oh well...

How fabulous was episode 7? I went from wanting to strangle SDJ at the start of the episode to wow at the end of the episode. Everything in between was done so well - awesome!

She is breathtaking in TBI and her performance in episode 7 is amazing. When you see her in Romantic Teacher, Doctor Kim - russian white bear is spot on. In fact, Seo Hyun Jin knocks it out of the park re her role in that show (an awesome show too). She takes things to a whole new level. It makes you wonder why did she do Temperature of Love (which I enjoyed for the first few episodes then found myself scratching my head over things).

I can honestly say that at the end of the first six episodes we have a lot of interesting things going on. Also, the beginning and end credits raise more questions than they answer - so you can safely watch them without seeing how things end up. Janice Wu is a delight and a very fine comedic actress (she was excellent in My Amazing Boyfriend).

I enjoyed TPP for the most part. There were good themes along with a ghost mystery and well done contrasts between the past and present. Our lead pair were great. I thought the grandmother stole the show though.
