137. Our Unwritten Seoul Ep 9-10 Review - "Ro-sa" and her friend were the definition of True Love

They left me feeling emotional, and sad. Another thing I will say is that though we are almost at the end of this series, I am still not sold on the development of our main characters.

136. Our Unwritten Seoul Ep 7-8 Review - I'm glad people are communicating more! I'm loving the character development!

In this last two episodes of Our Unwritten Seoul , more people discover the twins' secret but just in time for their development.

135. Our Unwritten Seoul Ep 5-6 Review - Guess Who? (Everyone Already Has)

I’m really starting to feel the growth in all the characters. The twins still think they’re fooling everyone, but honestly, their friends deserve more credit—they've clearly figured out what’s up. I'm glad Mi-ji finally realizes her misunderstanding, But Mi-rae desperately needs a hug.. and maybe therapy. Or the farmer?? which she just might be getting. But definitely therapy too!

The identity switch continues (poor Ho-su might not survive this cuz honestly 10/10 gaslighting skills from Mi-ji, and since she currently has no purpose in life, she should consider a career in politics...

133. Our Unwritten Seoul Ep 1-2 First Impressions - Park Bo-young Pulled Double Duty—and I'm Here for It!

I'm only two episodes into Our Unwritten Seoul and I’m already all in. Park Bo-young is pulling double duty as twin sisters, and she’s killing it—but can we talk about the chemistry between her and Park Jin-young? Their scenes together have this subtle spark that totally caught me off guard (in the best way). In this episode, I’m sharing my first impressions, favorite moments so far, and why this drama has the potential to be something really special. Thanks for listening! Visit my Website: www....

123. Buried Hearts - I do love a male-centric non-crime drama. Bonus if the lead is hot!

I like how clever the male lead is. I like how he loves the female lead regardless of their situation, and how she also loves him right back. I also like that the female lead has motives not necessarily tied to the male lead, despite her love for him. This drama is definitely textbook makjang but thankfully just the right amount. At this point, I just want to know who the main lead really is. Also, PARK HYUNG-SIK! Thanks for listening! Visit my Website: www.dramasology.com for all episodes of Th...

ThamePo , a Thai BL that completely surprised me. The show is simple but so full of heart, with amazing chemistry between the leads, William and Est. What I love most is how emotions speak through actions, not just words. The story feels real and natural, and you can feel every bit of the connection between Thame and Po.
