I've recommended Goblin enough times by now π Yeah, Sejeong is great in this one (I've seen this drama before). She also looked stunning on the red carpet of the AAA π Whenever I see Sejeong, I'm always reminded that: 1. She had a really tough/poor upbringing 2. She's very strong. Both mentally and physically. 3. She isn't shy about alcohol, especially when she's together with Jihyo (Twice) π

2023-12-19 23:18:19 +0000 UTCI'm glad this ended up winning so I can finally start watching it with you. Unfortunately it was pretty good so I'm not sure how long I'll be able to resist binging the entire show ahead of you :) I'm totally okay with the next several kdrama polls just being your curated list as they are all recommendations from the patrons anyways. My problem with the big 25 item polls is I want to vote for at least 10 of them :) I haven't watched your Kim Sejeong reactions yet but I may have to as she was really cool in this so far. It took me until almost the end of the episode to realize that the man in their grim reaper crew was Park Jin from Alchemy of Souls! I thought he seemed familiar from the first scene he was in but I didn't recognize him without the beard. I'm instantly more excited about this show now that he's in it. The other lady in there crew I've seen in multiple other kdramas as well. I do enjoy a good Studio Dragon quite often. I guess I should probably just watch all of their stuff at this point. Whenever they show someone driving while messing around with people in the backseat in the beginning of a show or movie they're 100% getting into an accident. I was surprised like you when they cut away for a minute without them getting hit but when they cut back it was like you fooled me once now it's actually going to happen. From only reading the description of the show of noodle shop employees fighting demons it seemed like it was going to be super weird and wacky but the show seems reasonably sensible and grounded so far just with fantasy elements which I like. I guess I expected it to be like a sitcom not a drama or something. Man I really hate bullies. The main difference between America and Korea seems to be that the teachers always turn a blind eye and let it happen where in America the bullies at least have to do it out of direct line of sight of the teachers. I haven't watched the Glory yet as it really doesn't seem like a enjoyable thing to watch. I'm glad that it looks like the bullies are going to get what they deserve in episode 2 already in order to motivate So Mun to join the grim reapers club. Speaking of which this show kinda reminds me of a show called Reaper from 2007 that I enjoyed. I was wondering if the grim reapers were all dead or not so I'm glad that they answered that question already. Watching you when the air raid siren went off really hit home. Stay safe.

2023-12-19 19:56:21 +0000 UTCthe show can make you think of several other shows or anime - 1 Luna Hotel of course for the supernatural aspect with spirits and reapers -2 an anime call Jujutsu kaisen where exorcists face Scourges who arise following the bad thoughts of people. Exorcists develop territories in which they are stronger to face the Scourge. - 3 and finally Glory which addresses the theme of school bullying.

2023-12-19 17:12:18 +0000 UTCfirst i'am in love with Sejeong since the first episode of produce 101 i follow her journey since KPOP star. but I really discovered her in produce . she is an incredible and extraordinary idol. Already she is very accessible I had the chance to meet her and she has the image of the girl next door. she is very pretty and feminine but she is also a tomboy she is very strong physically for a woman. She beats in arm wrestling all the female idols she has met and even several men. but she also has a magnificent voice . since its popularity exploded with I.O.I and Gugudan Sejeong has become a solo idol but also a very popular actress. she can play very physical roles like in Uncanny counter but also very feminine and sexy roles like in Business proposal. in 3 years of career she has won several awards for best actress or best female role. like during the AAA 2023 last week where she won another award.

2023-12-19 17:00:27 +0000 UTCYet another show that's based on a webtoon (there's defintely a trend with webtoon adaptations being amazing K-Dramas). It's a shame that Worst of Evil got so little recognition here, but I still hope you get around to it at some point, so that you can witness some top-tier acting from Ji Chang Wook and BIBI's first role! π€§ A little heads up for this show that you might not have known: The original writer of Uncanny Counter only wrote for the first 12 episodes, and then left due to difference in opinion. Basically, she disagreed with the producers over the direction of the narrative that the show was taking in the final episodes, so you might see a difference from a little over the halfway point of the show, and if you like the first few episodes, chances are you might not be a fan of the last few. Oh my god, I literally just watched Cody Ko's couple reacts video the other day, you mentioning that was definitely not a crossover I ever expectedπ Is this your journey to the recognition of K-Drama's infamous "Truck of Doom"? You must have peeped it in Vincenzo already, but basically, it's when a character gets killed by a white truck (occasionally blue) that comes seemingly out of nowhere. It could happen when a character is walking across the street, driving a car, eating in a bar like Vincenzo, or even just standing in a phone booth. It happens often in K-Dramas when someone needs to be killed, I urge you to keep an eye out, 'cause it's really fun π

2023-12-19 16:37:09 +0000 UTC- I finally took the time to watch Sejeong's solo MVs, like three years after I got into her former group gugudan. Still mad at that disbandment btw. And yeah, I fully understand why you fell in love with her :D - This show will also be new to me. - Oh, Studio Dragon! They also made Hotel del Luna, It's Okay to Not Be Okay, Vincenzo, as well as Flower of Evil, Twenty-Five Twenty-One and so many other shows. - Why is this kind of car accident always so predictable? - That superhero sounds awful, I kinda love it. - Joshua Weissmann is already too much for me, I'm gonna stay far away from those Tiktok βcooksβ. - But why are these cooks such show offs, the customers can't even see into the kitchen π - I'm getting Torchwood vibes with that SUV. Just that Torchwood didn't operate a restaurant as a cover. Also less super powers and more aliens. - Creed Ass do be assin' - Coming right around to that concept of absorbing your enemy's powers, huh? Shame that it's the villain tho - Fuzzy hair! The horror! Wow, that siren really takes you out of it. I'm thousands of kilometers away, just watching it on a video and it made me feel uneasy too. I hope you're doing okay with all this. - I haven't noticed any familiar faces so far and I'm not going to look at the cast for reasons of potential spoilers. - YES FUCK THEM UP SEJEONG - Where's the grim reaper from Hotel del Luna at? - Man, this is even more like Torchwood. Outsider who gets drawn into the team by pure chance. Initially turns down the offer and is supposed to have their memory wiped. But ultimatey they do join the team. - Nah dude, you can't fucking end the episode here πππ It's pretty cool so far, looking forward to more episodes.
