There were only a few moments that really stood out in this episode. In other words, lots of setting up for future plot. This isn’t a bad thing since we want a strong foundation for future storylines, but it does make for a short recap. Continue reading

Monster Episode 11 – Do Ya Wanna Team Up?
Our four leads have separated into work teams which are the focus of this episode….. There is also more T9 hospital stuff. But I continue to ignore it. I will ignore it like a kdrama doctor ignoring ethics. They just don’t exist in my recaps. Continue reading
Monster Episode 10 – Love & War……Mostly War
There are so many battle cry moments in this episode that there was little room for plot movement. We also have a bunch of stupid hospital stuff going on but I hate that even more than office politics so I will ignore the sick. Just like the big wigs do. See I am totally channeling my inner chaebol. Now if I just was Korean…. and had money……and maybe owned a hospital or two. Continue reading
Monster Episode 9 – It’s Hard Being the Princess
I am going to break from my traditional review and focus only on the scenes that involve our newest character, Do Shin Yeong (Jo Bo Ah). I have to admit that this girl is cracking me up. A breath of fresh air among the secret spy and company politics that we have been watching. Continue reading
Monster Episode 8 – A Speedy Recap
Monster Episode 5 – We Go Together Like Revenge & Skinship

Not only did we get some great revenge moments, but the chemistry between our three leads was brought to the forefront. Their chemistry is also what I am going to focus on in this recap.

Monster Episode 3 -The One With the Most Makjang Wins
Mirror mirror on the wall, who is the most makjangiest of them all? That is the question I am going to be focusing on as I chat about episode 3 of Monster. Because if you have not already noticed, this drama is not shy in throwing every trope and splashing the makjang liberally on all our characters. Continue reading
Monster Episode 2 – A Series of Failures
Episode 2 solidifies the fact that everyone is out to screw Ki Tan out of his money, freedom, and eventually his life. Which has me even more invested in the future revenge of our hero which is always a good thing. What I found amusing was that the writers did all this while having all the characters fail at their various plans. Never has a group of failed moments created such fun plot movement. So join me as I chat about everyone’s failures and how this is a narrative win. Continue reading
