Thankfully, the Fangirls and I are going through a slump so we all decided to give this one a try. My ab mystery loving heart thanks me. Join us as we give you our mostly filtered thoughts.
Sometimes a drama is just SO good that a first impression is just not enough. Sadly, we didn’t recap The Crowned Clown, so the only thing left to do is rave about it now that it’s over.

Remember the nursery rhyme about the little girl with the curl in the middle of her forehead? When she was good, she was very, very good, but when she was bad, she was AWFUL. Well, there are a few romcoms that maybe didn’t fall into the “awful” category, but we certainly didn’t enjoy them! Come join Kmuse, Kdrama Jen, Karie the Maknae, and Drama Geek as we discuss the romcoms we regret watching.

I’ve been in a bit of a drama funk lately. It astounds me because I have a decent kdrama with Yoo Seung Ho to watch (My Strange Hero) and the makjang insanity of Last Empress to keep me hooked. But neither of those dramas is really speaking to me, and as I drama-hop, a la Drama Geek, I find myself wishing to see some favorite faces on my screen.

There are so many drama couples that are nailing their romantic storylines that we just had to decide which one is the best. Come and join us as we battle it out and pick the ultimate current airing drama OTP (One True Pairing).
When I was putting together my post of Korean culture questions for MiataMama, Kdrama Jen helpfully suggested that she had some host daughters who live in Korea, and that they could answer questions too! So below we have answers from HostDaughter1, who is 26, a former military officer and current office worker; and HostDaughter2, who is 21 and currently a student at a prestigious Korean university. MiataMama is an American. She and her children are in Korea with her husband, who has been stationed there with the US military for a few years.
It’s been interesting to see their different responses to these questions, and to see the difference in their experiences. Enjoy!
