Full House – Kdrama Review
I had a blast watching this. It wasn’t completely devoid of faults I admit but it was a thoroughly enjoyable show.

Binge-Watch Reco: My Love From Another Star
I’ll make this quick since I fo realz do not have the time: This was a decent enough show. I’m beyond glad, however, that it wasn’t as stilted or drop-dead boring as Kim Soo-Hyun’s Moon Embracing the Sun because he is one fine actor and it was sad to see him wasted in that show. […]
