My husband and I often talk about psychology and mental health. We took a few classes together in college and he has a master’s degree in a psychology-related field. We’ve talked about how it seems like Korean culture doesn’t really have an open dialogue about things like depression and anxiety. So when I talked his ear off about Kill Me, Heal Me, his first comment was, “I thought kdramas didn’t deal with mental health!” I laughed. Kill Me, Heal Me is aaaaaaaaaaaallllllllllll about the mental health! And I loved it the whole time I was watching it.

Kmuse’s End of Year Countdown – Favorite kdrama Actors of 2015
Slowly (too slowly) we are making our way through the “End of Year” lists. I always say I am going to be totally on top of it and finish before January 1st. But here we are only on my favorite actors with several more lists yet to come. But what is a kaddict to do when you have a topic with so many award winning performances?
