I don’t think I’ve ever come across a series as charming, loveable and exciting as the 2018 MBC drama series My Secret Terrius (내 뒤에 테리우스/Terius Behind Me). The series achieves the almost impossible feat of having the perfect balance of exciting spy action, hilarious comedy and sweet romance.
An excellent solo debut, a groovy solo comeback from a queen and a pair of rookies with great tracks this week! Enjoy music from LEX (of BIGFLO), Yubin, E’LAST and TREASURE!
I’ve followed and been a fan of VICTON since their bright debut. They haven’t had the easiest of times navigating the crowded K-pop field. But they’ve nonetheless released some excellent music over the years since their debut. And they’re finally releasing their first full album, “VOICE: The Future is Now.”
Meanwhile downtown, Tametomo is with the Crystalia sibs as they shop for a nice ring. Takamichi buys one for her as she is celebrating Kishinjinse, a sort of coming-of-age celebration. Takamichi says Mabushina will always be his cute little sister. But she says she’s already a grown adult. Her annoyance causes her to light the store up and it seems to add some extra shine to all the pieces of jewelry there.
While a very giddy Legeiel plays the organ, Storious warns they must keep an eye out for the Swordsman of Light.
Meanwhile, Mei is trying to change Yuri’s mind about striking down Yuki-san. But Yuri says Touma is very naïve to be overly concerned with his friends over his swordsman responsibilities.
Kill It (킬잇) is a compelling example of a series that requires an upfront investment that will lead to a surprisingly emotional and satisfying conclusion. The 2019 OCN drama series starring Jang Ki Yong and Nana starts off with some intrigue before settling into a sort of oddly flat succession of disjointed stories. But that aforementioned investment and being able to stick with the series through to its almost abruptly exhilarating final minutes results in what ends up being a rewarding television experience.
The 2019 film My Bossy Girl (너의 여자친구) is a fluffy romantic comedy done right. An irresistibly charming couple and the right amount of depth turn out to be the perfect recipe for a thoroughly engaging and warm-hearted story of self-confidence, selflessness and the innumerable value of the connections people have with one another.
Sena is giving everyone some New Year’s towels she got as gifts from the company. While Muryou is abroad for work, Takamichi is off searching for the last Kanaema Stone under a crescent stone. With all the four Kanaema Stones, they will be able to restore Crystalia.
Touma is sitting on the rooftop thinking about the now-meaningless promise they had made to be friends forever. Mei finds him and takes a seat with him. She asks if he knows what he’s going to do now, but he doesn’t.
While I am under no delusion about The Amazing Race Philippines ever being resurrected by TV5 (or am I? lol), how might a possible relaunch work?
