    Five Enough
    (2016 - 54 1:10 eps)

    A widower & 2 kids, living with his In-laws meets a divorced (husband cheated) co-worker with 3 kids & a grandmother. His other 2 siblings also have difficulties in their dating lives. When all the families get involved it's a big mess.

    It's like 4 in 1, even at 54 episodes, it flies by. The acting is good, although Shin Hye Sun's character is quite irritating at times. Most of the other characters become quite lovable.

    A bit predictable, but the main couple is so good - showing rational behavior & good communication, even with a crazy family. Their elders, drove me crazy, but it was fun watching the adult kids deal with them.

    Interesting to see how stigmatized situations - 1 parent households, infidelity & family interconnections were handled.

    Oh, and I'm glad to see that you've resumed #EmpressKi. I think you're at the point where it's particularly hard to stop watching!

    Yikes, that's a lot! I'm glad to be finished several of the currently airing shows for now. Of course, I didn't mention our high-speed joint rewatch of #TheHeirs, which you recently reviewed. I enjoyed the show a lot more the second time around. I have such appreciation for the talented actors in the show. I'm tempted to rewatch #TheKingEternalMonarch before long, another all-time favourite. In the meantime, I'm 2 episodes into #Vagabond with #BaeSuzy. Lots of action.

    The Heirs (aka The Inheritors)
    (2013 - 20 1:00 eps) REWATCH

    A classic I 1st watched in early 2023. Knowledge of language & culture made it even better. The episodes flew by as the spoiled illegitimate 2nd son fell for the poor girl & had to fight to love her.

    Phenomenal casting of 3 proven leads early in their careers & the supporting actors (see hashtags) who have all had stellar careers. A screenwriter with several other highly-rated dramas (The Glory, The King: EM, Goblin...) The 3 leads & the show won many awards.

    It has a lot of wrist grabbing which was common at the time. But the depth that these young actors portrayed is astounding. Lots of character development & we come to understand their pain & the reasons for their actions. Excellent!

    Bad-Memory Eraser
    (2024 - 16 1:00 eps)

    A child prodigy tennis player is injured & because of this trauma, his life derails. As an adult, he is part of an experiment to erase his bad memories. After being "fixed" he is full of self-confidence & begins succeeding in life.

    It's one of those lost potential dramas. The story could have been good: a dysfunctional family, some tennis, a mystery, love triangles, learning that bad memories make us who we are & can be dealt with. With good acting by a great cast & mostly decently written characters, the mom's background needed to be expanded to justify her actions & the 2nd FL's character was just too ditzy but otherwise good.

    Most of the story happens in the last 2 episodes, but it glosses over all the hanging storylines & the writer used one of my least favorite ending tropes & ruined it completely.

    Cinderella at 2 AM
    (2024 - 10 1:05 eps)

    A rich chaebol son with a poor office worker who is older & has had responsibility for her brother since leaving her parents behind as a high schooler. This has made her pragmatic. When she finds out her young boyfriend is the 2nd son of the company owner, she knows the relationship is unrealistic. When mom offers money to break up, she takes it.

    Good acting, good OST, nothing extraordinary in set design, cinematography, or costuming. There were a few gems of wisdom in the writing, most was lackluster & predictable. The brothers were great together & the 2nd couple was very cute - they stole the show. Good fluff, with some occasional unexpected depth, but then a little disappointment because those hints of something more never came to fruition.

    A Korean Odyssey
    (2017 - 20 1:20 eps)

    Hong Sisters once again take a classic novel (Journey to the West - China) & adapt it into a Korean epic. I watched with people who read the book, so I had more insight into the characters than usual.

    A story about deities & humans, & good & evil. Lee Seung Gi is fabulous as a mean god forced to help a lowly human. The secondary characters (my favorite zombie ever) are truly gems, bringing comedy & heartfelt emotions into supplemental storylines. Many unique characters - a monkey, a piggy, an octopus/dragon king, devil kings, a zombie, a priestess, evil spirits & more - create an interesting story..

    Coats are amazing. Bromance is funny & sweet. CGI is mostly crappy. OST is great. Story is out there, but generally very good. I thought the ending of some storylines failed a bit in just the last episode.
