I agree with you. The second lead is almost never the perfect pairing and though they may have good times, as in IU's first choice in Scarlet Ryeo, there is a reason why he does not end up as the main lead. Only in one drama, Jealousy Incarnate, wherein even the female lead was torn between the two men, I did not like her final choice. Not because of lack of chemistry but because the other lead was genuinely the better man. Actually, Boys over Flowers would be another in which SLS is understandable.

I was blown away by how modern the movie is, in terms of its progressive themes, characterization, and screenplay. It didn't feel like early 90's at all!

Yes this is what I needed! Some new OST recommendations!

Most of these were on Netflix or Viki but for one or two I needed to use Dramacool, KissAsian or YouTube.

Click on the followup article to make it still longer ;) Hope you like them.

Kil Hae Yon- Something in The Rain. I voted for others too, the mom in Secret Garden and Boys over Flowers (my 2nd and 3rd choices respectively) but they could have been excused to an extent on the grounds that they did not want their sons to marry so much lower down the social hierarchy. The mom in 'something in the rain' was pure malice against her own family for not even any perceived benefit. Inexcusable.

That was the whole point of coming up with the list! Glad you liked it. I will have more in Part 2 and 3

This movie was quite fun. It is quite over the top.

Hey thanks! Do you mean more recommendations or articles or both?

Thanks! I put it on my PTW. I see that it also has Kaneshiro Takeshi apart from Donnie Yen, so it is certainly something I would enjoy watching.

Thank you very much!

Hope you enjoy watching them!

You are welcome! Will be recommending more in Part 2.

Hope you like them as well! I will be posting part 2 in a few weeks.

Thanks Callie! It also means I wasn't only one who watched sword master for the story as well

Yes, you are right about the slump in HK films especially compared to their heyday but there are still some good ones being produced every now and then.

Thanks a lot :)

It's a different genre but I quite enjoyed the Taiwanese drama 'The Perfect Match'. Another would be Wake Up 1 and 2 though that's also another genre

So agree on antibiotic resistance. I wrote an article last year on the same subject of antibiotic resistance, particularly its causes and exploring the agricultural side of things as well as clinical misuse. There is much financial incentive to reducing antibiotic resistance and preventing superbugs.

I really enjoyed your article. If it gives you any solace, I have always considered molecular biologists a critical part of healthcare as they are instrumental in new discoveries. Major advancements in clinical treatment can be traced back to a molecular microbiologist like yourself!
Your points are on point but dramas tend to play around with such details. For example, if one looks at American detective dramas, one could pull out one's hair over such details. Hope more detail-oriented viewers make writers/directors realise that details matter!
The antibiotic resistance cartoon was super funny. Unfortunately, penicillin was slain by the resistance aeons ago and more such antibiotic heroes are falling by the year. We need the Antibiotics version of the Avengers :)
