Ep 8 was magic - it has been a long time since a k-drama kiss made me feel this way! It had that tenderness, awkwardness, longing, care. passion, love - all rolled into one. Simply magic! It was such a realistic (for ones sharing their first kiss, technically) and cute moment, and such an obvious space setting too. That initial hesitation through the eyes, then that little tug, and finally giving in to their feelings that they have kept in for so long.And that purse drop! ❤️❤️❤️Guess not a hot night, but early morning for sure #iykykPerhaps one of the best first kisses of K-dramas! (I know Ep 3 was their first kiss but FL was drunk there)Kind of have been waiting for this not just for #SolJae but BWS is one hell-of a fantastic kisser! Those who know his earlier works "ModuLove" will know what I mean. Those who don't watch this: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eUVVUliXvBo at 4:00 minutes 😉NOTE: I know this doesn't review the entire episode, but was definitely one of the highlights. Writing an episode review for the first time, basis the recommendation of a fellow MDL-user ❤️

Cheese in the Trap Episode 10

I had wanted to watch this drama since the time it had come out, but had been putting it off cause of the mixed reviews. Finally decided to pick it up but could not go beyond Episode 10. I have not seen the movie or read the webtoon, so my opinions are completely based on this series.Issues: 1) Why is the ML like this? He is not a black and white character, but nor is he a gray one. Just don't know why and what is he doing? The purpose or why he is the way he is did not come out, neither does it seem justified early on, which made the plot drag and slow.2) Why did the ML like the FL? That progress, that gradual story development was missing. It is not a Hate-turned-Love, but just randomly one day ML decided FL is like him, when there is nothing for audience to see and understand.3) Why is Baek In Ha like that and why does everyone let her get away with it?There are just so many questions and I was hoping there would be answers as we progress ahead but none. The Saving Graces: 1) Baek In Ho (Seo Kang Joon) - because of his gorgeousness, acting as a wild hot blooded second lead yearning to chase back his dreams. (You can feel that yearning at times, sense of loss at times). His affection towards the FL were cute, but not oh-so-swoon worthy. 2) Hong Seol is good in terms of the puppy character look she pulls off, but she seems aimless for someone who is supposed to be hardworking and go-getter to be employed ASAP. And all of a sudden, she fell for the ML when she knows there is something off about him and he hated her a year earlier. Like why? Why would you do that? Especially when she is supposed to be smart :( 3) The friends, especially Nam Joo Hyuk - plays the character like you'd usually expect him to (read: Weightlifting Kim Bok Joo, side character in The Idle Mermaid).4) Oh Young Gon (Ji Yoon Ho) - he plays a good twisted, narcistic and obsessed character quite well (as far as I could see till Ep 10)I know it is supposed to be a slice-of-life, coming of age drama - but the message didn't come across at least till now. Suggested Alternatives:1) Weightlifting Fairy Kim Bok Joo2) True Beauty3) My ID is Gangnam Beauty

We are near to the end, and therefore the build-up to climax is looking good. And while the tension is high, am loving our main couple. They are so adorable - I like this mature depiction of love. The ability to trust, support your partner and not run away or misunderstand things. Really liking the flow of things and of course, the leads' visuals are 🫶🫶🫶The secretary - well I have never liked the actress since seeing her in the bad drama "Buried Hearts" in a terrible character. The moment I saw her, I knew she'd brew trouble, like she is. But then again its her character and she's making terrible decisions. Though as an actress, I hope to see her in better roles, and really see her acting talent. She's really very pretty, just need to see her with a good role, I guess.Really loved the PM case as well. I like that they are not forgetting that they also have to showcase a case, and bring out the office politics/malpractices. It is subtle but significant. Ep 9 one was really good, the way in which it was played out. Not everything is an affair, sometimes there is more than meets the eye. Good case, relevant in today's world.I can feel the vibe is more serious now, and at times it can become boring or under-developed. I hope that's not the case. I really loved the show from the start, and hoping for a great finish! No theories today - cause I think all the cards are on the table now. We are just headed towards the end-game :)P.S. The convenience store worker is so fun. Even in the limited role she's created such an impact - kudos to the actress. She had such good sense for the hot night guidance! 😉🪥

Filing for Love Episode 10

[1] Jae Yeol: I feel a sense of pity for him now. His one sided love will never come true and now looks like he's also not able to free himself from the political marriage. Moreover his mother's health deteriorates. He's truly lonely and pitiful with a father who's unsupportive and a brother who wants to see him fail. Really feel sorry for him, especially when with his interaction with Mr Noh at the bar proved that he's someone who truly values justice and true. I really hope by the end of the drama he finds peace one way or another - perhaps he's able to divorce his wife, and leave everything and take care of his mother. But before he does that I hope he also gives an earful to his father, for treating him like anything but a son.[2] Audit Team 3 - Awwwww, best team indeed. I love them too, Ms Yoon. They are a bunch of sweethearts. Expected when the actor who plays Mr Moo is their leader. He's usually a good goofy guy in dramas and here he was no different.[3] The half-brother: I am seeing the actor for the first time, and while his character and arc are not fleshed out as the main and second leads, he's good. The keyboard smash, the constant cunning eyes that are looking for ways to create a downfall for his brother - marks of a good antagonist to loath for sure.[4] A-jeong: Yes, I want to B-slap her too. Second drama I am seeing her in, and yes I want to slap her twice at least, hard. She was pitiful before Ep 10 ending and Ep 11 preview, but now - total hate. Kudos to the actress through for playing it so well, but I really want her to play an intelligent, funny or badass character next. Though we could not get the B-slap, it was awesome to see how cool In-a was to intimidate her.[5] This episode was a little low on our cute, adorable doses of Mr Noh and In-a, so I hope there's more as we go to the finale episodes next week. Can't believe this show has come to an end. While it is going good, I think the last few episodes became a bit too serious. Would have loved if they would have kept it light and comedic even in these episodes, they are trying but it is not the same but it is okay - the script/story-line demands it. Though I feel it has led to a slight dip in the ratings. Hope the finale is a blast and it ends well. This is definitely a must-watch drama of 2026!
