I’ve been watching a ton of stuff lately and despite the late hour (I really should be in bed right now), I decided to share my thoughts about several of the dramas I am watching. Also, I share why or why not I think you should be checking them out. I will try my best to not give any spoilers in this post.

Arang and the Magistrate strikes me as a perfect drama for Halloween. It has ghosts, as well as a whole background of mythology that is better than perhaps that of any other drama. We get Shin Min-ah as our perky ghost, Lee Joon-ki as The Magistrate who can see ghosts, Yoo Seung-ho as the Great Jade Emperor with a Mane of Glory, hot Reapers, and Heavenly Fairies.
