I personally not a fan of the show because it just to gore for me, but I finished watching because of Lee Do Hyun. He was great in there but killed, so I didn’t think I would watch the second season. But again, I watched the trailer and it seems legit. Whoever made trailer is […]

Premiere Watch: Daily Dose of Sunshine
I do plan to watch the show, but I can’t help but notice there are very few women in it, like the other anniversary sageuks produced by KBS. I tend to lose interest quickly when it feels like an all-male show. Considering the constant wars and the fact that they took a toll on men, […]

Premiere Watch: Castaway Diva
First impressions:I didn’t flinch when overpowered folks in Moving beat the living daylights out of each other.However, it was really hard for me to stomach the violence towards children that started off this show. None of this matters though. Park Eun Bin shines. It’s only EP1 and we get a few precious minutes of PEB […]
