Wasting time
6.0~ Is he delusional or just wasting his entire life? Honestly, it feels less like a drama and more like watching someone spiral into obsession. He’s not a hero , he’s a stalker teetering on the edge of psychopathy. As a woman, it’s disturbing to watch, not thrilling. There’s nothing romantic or mysterious here, just an unsettling reminder that danger often wears a quiet face. This isn’t a gripping fictional tale — it’s a string of unfortunate events that could easily happen to someone in real life. And that’s what makes it so uncomfortable. What a wasteful ending , boring, pointless, and entirely forgettable.Was this review helpful to you?
8.2~⭐⭐⭐⭐
Secret: Untold Melody is a quiet, emotional mystery that slowly unfolds like a song you don’t fully understand at first but feel anyway.D.O. once again proves he’s a strong emotional lead. His performance is restrained and subtle, never overdramatic, yet deeply convincing. He carries the film with silence, with eyes that speak more than dialogue ever could.
The structure can feel slightly confusing in the beginning. The mystery builds in fragments, and at times it feels predictable. But just when you think you have it figured out, the story gently twists. It doesn’t shock loudly it clicks into place. Slowly. Carefully.
There’s a familiar emotional echo here, reminiscent of Ditto: that same nostalgic longing, that sense of love crossing something intangible. But this film plays its own melody. Softer. More restrained.
It’s not perfect, but it lingers. And sometimes, that’s enough.

Fun and highly entertaining. Kim Seon Ho steals the show, his unexpected comedic beats land perfectly and make the character oddly charming despite the chaos. The plot moves at a solid pace, never dragging, with enough twists to keep the tension alive. Action sequences are punchy and well-staged, and the thriller elements stay engaging throughout. Overall, it’s a stylish, fast-moving Korean action thriller that knows exactly what it wants to be and delivers.

Mantis (2025) Review
7.3 ~ Another non-ordinary performance by Yim Si Wan, blending action and comedy with his signature charm. The action scenes are sharp and well-executed, showcasing solid choreography and pacing. While the plot leans toward predictability, it still manages to entertain through witty moments and a lighthearted tone. The romantic subplot adds a soft, endearing touch that balances out the intense sequences. Overall, Mantis might not redefine the genre, but it’s an enjoyable watch worth recommending, especially if you’re a fan of stylish action with a dash of humor and heart.Was this review helpful to you?
A Hundred Memories (2025) Review
9.6/10 ~ The moral of this story hits hard: sometimes, the ones you truly love are already right in front of you, you just fail to see them. So, choose wisely. From the very start, I sensed something tragic brewing, the kind of emotional gut-punch only a K-drama can deliver, and I was right. Yet, despite the heartbreak, A Hundred Memories stands as a worthy and deeply moving follow-up, crafted with authenticity and emotional precision.The cinematography embraces a “normal” visual approach: crisp, clear, and perfectly color-balanced, giving the drama a raw, realistic charm. Beneath that simplicity lies the spirit of a tingly visual and moral adventure, where friendship evolves into something resembling family. The chemistry between the characters feels lived-in, genuine, and quietly powerful.
Though the final episode leans toward the cliché and predictable side, it still lands on a hopeful, heartwarming note. And honestly? After all that emotional turbulence, a happy ending feels like the closure we deserve.
