Both movies are fabulous, and the use of the cinematography in each one is delightful, with a special shout out from me re The Road Home

When you have a moment, take the time to watch this movie. Not knowing another person’s language doesn’t stop one’s heart. Nicely done.

I’m at the point of only wanting to keep watching just to see JC take MW down!

Yes, I have to agree the problem is the story and the scenario. I’m getting close to dropping BP. There are some very good moments (JC and his daughter and her storylines) and even clever, off the wall artistic moments (hijacking of the blue car), but they get lost in the more ridiculous elements that the story switches to, especially throughout eps 9-12.

100 Days is a good show. It’s not too heavy and it’s not too light - it’s just right!

Well, it’s a solid start. The two main leads certainly stand out. The Park brothers are real jerks: Chi Woo’s husband who is a real slacker and his brother Kang Sung who is a status hungry lawyer. Wan Seung’s mother gives Chi Woo a hard time, but his mother (the ever delightful Park Joon Geum playing a much stronger role) gives him a swift kick (literally) when he needs it.

The synopsis makes sense once you watch the first few episodes. Although there is nothing new or original as yet in terms of a storyline, both Yoo Jin and Jung Hoon are delightful. It’s also good to see Kim Chang Wan (Wan Seung’s father) play a nice role too.

For me the issue is about how his character has been written and directed. We get some really good glimpses regarding the struggle OJY as a character has in dealing with the real world. However, I find he is not coming across as strong as I would like him to be. Ayre that is the point when he is contrasted against LYJ

I think it’s always interesting how we see characters and actors in dramas differently. It adds a whole new dimension to the impact of a show.

With the first episode, I felt like I was watching a movie. I didn’t want it to stop.

I tried to stick with The Third Charm. Lee Som is fabulous in this show (as she is in others). However, I feel those around her can’t match her performance (apart from the brother). This show has a great theme, it’s just not right for me in terms of its plot and execution. C'est la vie...

Just completed episode 50 and wanted to drop it so many times after episode 42, but I’m going to have keep watching. Se Na is about the most vile villainess in Kdrama land, hammed up beautifully by Soo Ah. Her fall from grace should be spectacular. Hahaha....

Oh well. At the end of episode 12 I found myself underwhelmed and I have decided to drop it. It had potential. I guess I just didn’t appreciate how the story unfolded after episode 4. One element I really did like was the backstory between Tae Soo and his mum (and the mum’s role in general).

Eps 80 - 90 have been quite good. In essence the secondary storylines have matured and are quite interesting, entertaining and funny at times re the different relationships as the main leads settle into an almost idyllic life. The main protagonist tries to keep ruining things around her, but gets thwarted at every step!

The scene on the bus in episode 11 was just a fabulous moment

Regretfully, I have had to drop this one. Aoi is very good. I just found the story lacked heart early on and its a bit too demeaning

Seo Ji Hye is fabulous in this show. However, I’m struggling with the male cast though (apart from the anaesthetist). The ladies are outshining them in this one.

Do you have supernatural powers? This scene was so funny, I almost fell out of bed :)

In my view, it keeps getting better and better. Like you, I can’t see any plot holes. It’s a good old fashioned romp that is entertaining with good storytelling

Terius is a brilliant show. Eps 9&10 are hysterical. They change things up so well in this show.

So at the end of the first quarter of its run, we have a show that has glimpses of brilliance and then elements that make it something else. I’m not a big fan of flashbacks as a rule and we had a huge one during eps 7&8 that filled in all the gaps. I felt it wasn’t necessary. Ji Cheol continues to be a very good, strong and complex character. The storyline with his daughter is fabulous. His wife is also a good character - the storyline re Sun Joo and Min Woo can be taken one of two ways, so I’m going with the positive tack. As for the mystery drug experiments and the characters related to this, it’s not quite gelling for me, but it’s a key part of the story. I’m trying to get off the fence, but I can see the whole Min Woo (yes, he is a jerk of the highest order) thing is going to irritate me as well - so, I hope Ji Cheol gets to knock his block off, but that probably won’t go well either. Fighting!
