On When the Stars Gossip Feb 27, 2025
Looks like I’m in the minority who enjoyed this series. Yes I was here for LMH to start with. I don’t usually like space genres either. But I enjoyed watching something different. It wasn’t perfect but I’ve watched a lot worse and I never once wanted to drop it. The corny side mind dreams people had in the first few episodes threw me. I was wondering what kind of out there musical / type comedy were they going for. Thankfully those scenes stopped.

Perhaps some better closure for some of the characters would have been nice but I enjoyed it and don’t regret watching it. I also think Eve was perfectly cast. Some people have been unnecessarily rude about her looks or age. She is exactly what that character needed to be. You wouldn’t be all dolled up in makeup on a space station.

I suggest if the reviews have put you off just get through the first 3 episodes and make your own mind up. I’ve often not bothered watching something people have said is bad. But we all have different opinions.

After having read some comments when this first came out I was bummed to think I wouldn’t enjoy it. I love the cast. Lee Min Ho is one of my favourites. And to be in space is also not usually a genre I’d be too keen to watch.

However I am really enjoying this. So far finished episode 4, so a long way to go. But all the early comments about there being no chemistry,,as far as the storyline goes there shouldn’t really be any at this point. Yes you can feel it slightly from LMH’s character but she wouldn’t have any feelings for him yet. Also the comments about her being unattractive are so not warranted. She’s an astronaut in space. I don’t believe they’d have make up and a strong beauty routine in space. I think she’s perfect so far.

The only thing I will mention for people who start this are the weird random side parts that are almost like a musical without singing. I was not expecting that at all. Really odd. But so far I’m enjoying the whole thing. I thought a space storyline would be so boring. So far it isn’t.

I’m glad I have finally managed to watch OK Teac Jeon in something other than Vincenzo which I watched years ago. Sometimes someone plays a character so well you can’t see them as anything else. Finally I will now be able to watch his other dramas. Not to spoil anything about Vincenzo but those that have watched it will know what I mean.

Anyway. I like this series but it did take till episode 5-6 for me to decide to stay with it. The problem for me, which is obviously intentional for the storyline, was not being able to work out which kid was who as adults. As I was watching it in the beginning I couldn’t understand why I was struggling to work out who they were, but obviously as time goes on you realise why.

Definitely worth a watch.

its the actress, when she screams she screehes till your ears bleed. But otherwise she does her role well, I liked…
I’ve already watched she was pretty a long time ago so I don’t really remember that now lol

I started Secret. I don’t think I’ve watched many melodramas before so I’m finding it very slow and hard to want to binge watch. And yes I see some of the same personality in this of the actress.

Ji sung is one of my favourite actors though and I notice a lot of other people from other series in Secret. I’ll try and keep pushing through it. I’m only on episode 2. I tend to make a decision by episode 4-5.

On Kill Me, Heal Me Jan 18, 2025
I just finished this for the second time.

First time I gave it a 9/10. Usually if a show is good enough I want to rewatch I tend to score higher the second time.

First of all Ji Sung is just so brilliant in this. To be able to play all those personalities so perfectly and transition seamlessly is amazing.

I guess I have 2 main gripes that prevented me scoring or higher. Many people have also mentioned it but the second time around the female leads screams, cries and general voice got quite irritating. I know it’s her character and the director obviously wanted that but it was too much.

Secondly I really noticed this show should only have been 16 episodes and not 20. Got very dragged out especially with the flash backs. I understand they need to use them but not to that extent.

Still an awesome show. Considering watching sSecret with both the Main Leads. I just hope she isn’t as annoying vocally.

I loved this show but sadly started it too early and had to wait for the last 2 episodes.

This is one of those dramas where I would rate it very high and then the last episode leaves me wondering what score to give it. The first half of the final episode just seemed out of place but I’m glad they came back to ending it well. Watching the flashbacks after the credits reminded me how much I enjoyed the series throughout watching it. The lead couple had great chemistry and I enjoyed the acting of all the supporting characters so apart from the hiccup at the ending episode I thoroughly enjoyed it.

hi bogummie
I just saw a short on YouTube for family by choice and I honestly thought it was Bo Gum. I’ll be watching this series next I think. Looks good. And now I know who it actually is, I’ve seen him in other series.

On Island Part 2 Dec 28, 2024
I am not a fan of any horror genre. I gave this one a go simply for the actors. Many of my favourite actors have done horror and I just can’t bring myself to watch them. I did enjoy this one. Wasn’t over the top and I’m glad I watched it. Lucky for me I watched both seasons in one go. I tend to lose interest if there is a gap so I could imagine that frustrated people at the time.

The ending however was annoying. A one year skip and then to make it seem like another series may happen, but most likely won’t. I like that kdramas usually have just one series with completed endings.

Its upsetting that there's still no news of another part...why make shows with incomplete endings? This, Vagabond,…
What I love most since starting kdramas a few years back is that each series is like a long movie. A start, middle and an end. I’m so over American shows having up to 7-9 series of one show. I prefer to see my favourite actors in multiple shows. While this 2 part didn’t bother me. I have watched it only now so both parts were already completed so it was just a 12 episode series to me. I would have preferred a proper ending.

I’m surprised it has such the high ranking. Although I would give War’s acting 10/10. He never disappoints. I did enjoy the series.

My main gripe with the series was probably due to a low budget. I could barely watch the fight scenes. Whilst I commend the actors for actually doing most of it themselves. The sound affects completely ruined all those scenes. I guess I’m too used to Kdrama budgets. I love fight scenes usually but they were so bad in this.

Overall still glad I watched it. Looking forward to War’s next project. And Yin has improved so much over the years.

On The Fiery Priest Nov 22, 2024
I decided to watch this along with If you Wish Upon Me as something to lighten the mood between what I knew would be a series I’d cry during.

All the reviews raved about how funny this was. It took a long time to find it really funny. Especially as the beginning is about the death of the elderly priest. So nothing funny there really.

I was wondering if the female prosecutor was ever going to be likeable. It took probably half the series before you don’t hate her completely.

Unusually for such a long series I found the last quarter to be the best part. It got more funny and plenty of action.

Overall I did enjoy it. But it took a while to warm to it and did not start out as I expected.

So I’ve been watching pretty much kdramas for awhile now. No Thai BL’s have really drawn me in lately.

Once I saw this had War, Yin and Mark in it, I just knew I had to watch it. I’ve binged the first five episode alone today. I’ll probably regret not waiting till the end.

War would have to be one of my favourite Thai actors of all times. From the first time I ever saw him I knew he was special. The way he acts with his eyes alone is amazing. He makes you feel so many emotions. His range is awesome.

Props to Yin as his acting has improved so much from the first time I saw him in love mechanics. He seems so much more comfortable and realistic now.

I can feel the slight tension between them both already. I can’t wait until it heats up.

I’ve been putting this off because I know I’m going to cry heaps. Can someone please put in a spoiler if it at least has a happy ending. Ji Chang Wook is one of my favourites but I cry easily lol.

I can’t forget the undeniable chemistry between Jung Hae-in and So-min. I’m glad they got to work together,…
Where can you watch the BTS?

Good news. LND hit its highest Nielsen ratings for the Sunday finale.E16 2024.10.06. 8.4 (nationwide) 9.4 (Seoul)Although…
I’ve always wondered how they take the overall ratings into account. A lot of people like myself don’t watch a show until the whole series is available. I couldn’t imagine watching one or two episodes a week.

I’m at episode 6 and I don’t know whether to keep going or not. I hate wasting time on series to drop them, and sometimes it depends on my mood (haven’t been able to get into any shows this past week) but I also don’t want to watch 10 more episodes if this is as good as it gets.

Does it get better?
