The 2019 JTBC drama The Light in Your Eyes (Eyes Are Dazzling/눈이 부시게 ) is a stunning viewing experience. In the span of its 12 episodes, you will laugh, you will cry, you will fall in love, you will be on the edge of the seat. But even more importantly, the series leaves us with a profound reminder of a few things.
The 2018 Japanese film Over Drive (オーバードライブ ) has plenty of racing thrills and a pair of strong, charismatic lead actors. But that unforunately isn’t enough to get the film into full throttle.
Weightlifting Fairy Kim Bok Joo (역도요정 김복주) may give off a specific first impression when you first start it. But as the series progresses, it develops into a surprisingly heartfelt, emotional and wholly romantic story that will definitely leave you with a smile on your face.
If you’re still wondering what all the hype around the Oscar-winning Korean film Parasite (기생충) is all about, the only way to find out is to actually watch it.
If you need a little pick-me-up, look no further than the thoroughly charming 2016 tvN romcom Cinderella and the Four Knights (신데렐라와 네 명의 기사).
“Romantic turbulence” is exactly how to describe the journey of Jung Hae In and Son Ye Jin’s characters in JTBC/Netflix’s Something in the Rain (Pretty Noona Who Buy Me Food/밥 잘 사주는 예쁜 누나).
If you’re looking for an exciting, action-packed thrill ride then the SBS Korean drama Vagabond is just the adventure for you.
I know I may be the minority when I say this. But Itaewon Class is a disappointment.
The KBS-produced Netflix drama One More Time (헤어진 다음날/The Day After We Broke Up) is an example of having incredible potential, but falling short in execution, keeping it from becoming a truly great series.
March 17, 2020. It’s the first day of a de facto quarantine here in the San Francisco Bay Area. And one of my first thoughts is I wish had a group of friends like the gang on the Netflix Korean drama My First First Love (첫사랑은 처음이라서) to spend it with.
