WOMAN OF DIGNITY

GENRES: Drama

SUMMARY: Going from a maid to madam of the house requires research, planning, and a whole lot of revenge.

THIS SHOW HAS EVERYTHING: Knitted vests, criminal records, face slaps, cheating husbands (and wives), genius children, wet cats, sake-infused baths, meditation cults, brunch fistfights, cold-weather golf, art dealers, illegal banchan kitchens, revenge, pop-art mistresses, and an unexpected amount of toilet tissue business sense.

HOT TAKE: This show is a hot chaebol garbage fire and I love it. It's got a real ‘Hush up, Grandma’s watching her stories’ vibe, but like in the best way possible. Related: I will never cease to be in awe of what a tall drink of water Lee Ki Woo is.

Don't think this show is for you? Try these drinking games instead: Drinking Game #1: Take a shot every time someone calls Woo Ah-Jin pretty or gorgeous or stunning. Drinking Game #2: Take a shot every time Woo Ah-Jin spends too much time on screen applying Lancome products. Trust me, you'll be wasted before the end of Episode 3.

Again My Life. 7/8

Story: 7

Acting: 10

Chemistry: ?

Comparable to: The Devil Judge (kdrama); Reborn Rich (kdrama); Vincenzo (kdrama); Lawless Lawyer (kdrama)

Honestly this is your average been there done that sort of fantasy revenge, corruption, fighting for the good lawyer type of drama if that makes any sense. It’s pretty predictable and pretty plot hole’ie. Lee Joon Gi does like he always does pull off his role amazingly well and is pretty much the highlight of the drama. The drama isn’t bad per say, it’s just ‘meh’ especially leading into the ending where it started to feel very rushed through. It was a very anticlimactic finale. Nonetheless it’s still an all right watch.

So I've finally finished Bloodhounds (+ ahjussi collection)

...and I have no idea where to start and what to say and how to feel.

No, wait, please hear me out.

It was b l o o d y and at parts a very difficult watch, as it has lots of explicit fighting scenes, which look extremely realistic and cruel. So cruel that I had to close my eyes and not watch, I even skipped many & i'm not sorry. However, there are also parts so heartwarming that it makes you forget about all the crimes and gore for a moment. So, it's up to you to decide if it's worth the struggle. Since the violence could be a bit too much for many, let's just say I do and don't recommend this one at the same time. Personally, one of things I greatly enjoyed is the subtle comic tone of Gun-woo's and Woo-jin's interactions with each other and their characters which represent people doing sports professionally so well, the purity of their hearts and lack of malice in everything they do, since they truly do live for the sports. Then there are two absolutely powerful and skillful young women, Hyeong-ju and Da-min, playing such important roles in the entire series, each of them individually contributing so much to the entire plan of bringing the bad guys down and saving what could still be saved. And also, one of the most enjoyable parts were definitely the bonds that came out of these newly formed friendships. Younger acting crew did an amazing job. In comparison to the older and experienced ahjussi crew (I'll get to them in a bit), they've got some serious talent. It must have been a huge undertake for both Woo Do-hwan and Lee Sang-yi to live up to the expectations of the entire team behind this drama. And they did it. They absolutelly slayed.

If you still haven't watched this drama, trust me when I say these two cinnamon rolls will instantly win your heart right at the beginning of the first episode. They're like the most perfect two besties you'd want to be besties with too. And yeah, you'll suffer thru all the horrors just to see them win the biggest battle of their lives. Gosh, every time I tried typing something coherent about them it just ended up being lots of crying shaking throwing up. They're the best, ok? And this is best I can do. ╥﹏╥

And while our marine boys scratched so many itches around this platform, I have to mention the absolute gentlemen that starred in this series and swept me off my feet *deepest sigh ever*

So many great actors took part in Bloodhounds, it's hard to believe my own eyes at times. Whoever was in charge of the casting did a killer job. I couldn't even take the bad guys seriously because they're freakishly handsome. Well, at least not until Kim Myung-gil brutally ended my favourite ahjussi trio damn you ep 6

What started as an obsession over two young marine guys and their bromance ended up as a hole in my heart over downfall of three middle aged criminals men and a will to trade all the money and gold bars for their lives. And more importantly, a huge appreciation for Korean actors over the age of 40.

No, let's be real. They're handsome and talented and great at their job and deserve all the love and support. With that in mind... here's a tiny screenshot dump because it would be a shame not to post it:

And I want to be normal about them and move on in peace but *internal screams* I've already mentioned Lee Hae-young in one of my earlier posts, addressing my obsession with the character he portrays, the sushi restaurant owner Hwang Yang-jung. And I know many people are obsessed with him too. But no one is speaking up. Which is silly. And tbh I really thought there would be more gifs of him and other men but...there's close to none? Can we talk about how fine this man is? How fine this whole ahjussi crew is? Can we... can we just acknowledge they sliced us all in tiniest pieces possible and burned us all till we turned into charcoal? Can we make a mess of kdrama side of tumblr by excessively posting about them? Pretty please?

It's true, I came for the boys, but stayed for these men. I'm not even joking when I say kdrama has me in a chokehold again, but this time for a whole new reason. Dropping everything just to watch series and movies these guys took part in sounds like the best idea at the moment. I even forgot about the new releases I started watching, which makes me laugh at myself, but... it is what it is. At some point, a girl just has to obsess over her favourite ahjussi, and that's okay.

My Demon

TV Shows/Dramas watched in 2024

My Demon (2023/24, South Korea)

Director: Kim Jang Han

Writer: Choi Ah Il

Mini-review:

Look, I'm not gonna lie. I started this drama for a very superficial reason: Kim Yoo Jung and Song Kang are one of the most gorgeous couples I've ever seen. And tbh, that's one of the things that kept me watching until the end. The first half was pretty fun, thanks to their will-they-won't-they dynamic and some really funny supporting characters and recurring gags. Unfortunately, it began to drag around the middle part, and then it got more and more boring with each passing episode. By the time the final episode came out, I no longer cared about the plot, the characters or anything else (although the ending itself was quite nice). With all that in mind, I can't help but think My Demon would have worked much better as a movie.

My Demon

Loved this series. It had a balance of cute, drama, and suspense. The characters for the most part were grayish and complex. The portrayal of God as female, homeless and gambler was interesting. The relationship between her and the demon was one complex too. It felt like ying and yang. Human emotions make the demon and god empathetic towards humans' pain. This story tackles domestic abuse and child abuse, and emphasizes on how silence and turning a blind-eye to these situations can hurt a loved one as well. It makes you reflect on these issues.

Again, it's a good drama to watch.

LEGAL HIGH

GENRES: Legal Procedural, Comedy

SUMMARY: A money-loving lawyer who's never lost a case takes on an apprentice who loves nothing but justice.

THIS SHOW HAS EVERYTHING: Amateur boxing, stylish Winter coats, pigeon poop, know-it-all managers, trip falls, snake and scorpion tattoos, soju blackouts, puppy impersonations, PTSD, ghosts, stomach stabbings, daisy-scented diffusers, and gourmet food.

HOT TAKE: Adapted from the Japanese drama with the same name, this show never takes itself too seriously and I think we can all learn from that.

Also, I can happily add this to the list of shows that don’t really have a main romance arc--which, in this K-drama world, is pretty rare.

Comparable to: Goblin (kdrama); Tale of the Nine Tailed (kdrama); Doom at Your Service (kdrama)

If you’re familiar to the dramas above then you’ll probably absolutely love this drama. It’s a cheesy romcom fantasy that you switch your brain off. You squee, you giggle, you roll your eyes at the ridiculous dialogue and setups the characters are in/deliver but secretly love it too. I will not stop laughing and squeezing over that kiss garden. Totally ridiculous, totally cute. Oh and yeah chemistry in this, top tier.

BEGONIA WARNING I REPEAT BEGONIA WARNING.

The flowers that Seok Hoon gave to Do Hee are Begonias and I have some shits to say about it. Adding the fact that flowers are not in kdramas just to look pretty.

Begonias can mean gratitude for something, uniqueness and individuality, and justice and peace. But among those beautiful meanings there are others that interest us.

Warning about misfortune: Begonia flowers can be used to warn someone about dangers that are about to occur.

What was what the lady said?

"Good time are always excruciatingly short" 😐

And whatever the crazy family is plotting against her. It can't be her death. That's already a knowing threat so it wouldn't have such an impact for both on viewers and her. It has to be something more nastier and evil like them. They were talking about it before and on the wedding table. I'm just sure it's a separate thing from the guy trying to kill her and his boss.

You can also give the Begonia flower to someone who has been injured or suffered some type of accident.

Like waking up hanging off your balcony.

Be cautious: Begonias can also be given to someone who is taking a trip or planning some type of potentially dangerous activity.

Like solving a murder, catching a culprit, casually existing while all your "family" wants you underground, you know, the usual.

Dark thoughts: Begonias are also related to dark thoughts. This symbolism comes from the fact that begonias are also linked to warning signs and caution. In any case, they are not surrounded by very positive energy, at least in some cultures.

👍.

That was all I needed to know. Seok Hoon, the language of flowers never lies, go to the police and do some confessions. You seem like you need it.

Why would he do it, tho?

Why would he be trying to kill Do Hee?

Did he really kill Miss Ju?

The family is already on something by themselves. And if he wants to kill her, it would only benefit the older of the family. Not him. And this kind of villain does not fit in the sidekick position.

•So, he is not looking after the president's position.

•He doesn't need money. He has a good financial position being so young as we see in the newspaper Gu won was reading.

BUT

If he did kill Miss Ju and she is looking after the culprit it would make sense he sent someone after her while at the same time he could be right beside her, with her trust on him, to know if she is getting closer or further.

Still that doesn't solve the main question.

Why would he kill his aunt?

As I said, he doesn't seem to need or want the power that would come with the president's position. And that's the main reason why all her family waited for her death.

To create caos? To distract everyone while he does his own thing?

I don't know.

I need to know.

And Fridays are suddenly so far away every week that is actually killing me.
