October/ November 2019 Korean Drama Review
I was going to watch Strangers From Hell but it honestly started getting too gruesome after two episodes so I decided to not continue watching it.

[Album Review] OnlyOneOf – Line Sun Goddess
Released in October 2019, Line Sun Goddess is OnlyOneOf’s 2nd EP.

First Impressions: Hotel Del Luna
A Ghoulishly-Fun Hong Sister’s Drama It’s been a while since we’ve seen a Hong Sister’s k-drama, and my anticipation was mounting. Could they learn from their choices in Hwayugi (yes, holding a grudge and still bitter over the last couple of episodes.) and rise up with a new, masterful drama? Well, the official verdict is […]
Korean Drama Reviews April/May 2019
I only watched three dramas this time and I hope that there will be better dramas upcoming since I feel like there has been nothing special for a while. The first drama that I finished this month was Kill It which is an OCN Drama. I haven’t watched an OCN Drama for awhile […]
