Not Me: The Series

Not Me: The Series (Thai) - Sean & White I enjoyed this show a lot. Honestly, it had me guessing a lot and also had me on the edge of my seat. To help with keeping a couple of characters straight, White will stay White when he is being himself, Black stays Black, and "Black" will be when White is pretending to be Black.  There were many times I wished White told Sean he was not Black rather than let him keep guessing. If White was honest, if not from the beginning but the night they kissed, Sean would not have been beat up by Black for thinking he was White. I loved the scene when Sean confronted Black about not being the "Black" Sean's known for the past several weeks. It all started with the smoking and escalated to them throwing punches. There were times Sean tested "Black" and the reaction was not the same as Black so I think the fighting was the final test. My reasoning is that "Black" could not fight to save his life while Black wa...

TharnType: The Series/TharnType 2: 7 Years of Love

 TharnType: The Series / TharnType 2: 7 Years of Love  (Thai) - Tharn & Type I watched both seasons of TharnType ( TharnType: The Series and TharnType 2: 7 Years of Love ) back to back (more like skimmed through the first season because I have already seen it) and actually enjoyed it. Also, I can't believe that the final episode or two left me with tears in my eyes. In the first season, when Type found out Tharn was gay, I thought it was rude of Type to do everything he could (after not being able to switch rooms) to get Tharn to move out. Especially when he trashed Tharn's side of the room. But, I did like it when Tharn got back at him by trashing Type's side as well. There were a couple of times when Tharn flirted Type (though Type did not like it). The first was when Tharn stood up slowly inches from Type after picking something up at Type's feet. The second was when Tharn told Type that he was not going to lure him with food and proceeded to drink from a wate...

Angel's Last Mission: Love

Angel's Last Mission: Love (Korean) - Dan & Yeon Seo As always, this was a good show. There were times I wanted to cry and times I was not happy. And I thought the story line was good. I liked Yeon Seo's character arc. At the beginning, she only cared about herself and talked down to those around her. By the end, she cared about others and was willing to put her life on the line so the man she loved can live. I understand that going blind changed her for the worst but that did not mean she should degrade everyone. So, who she ends up being was very good for her. I also liked Dan's character. First, he was someone who was kind of goofing around while doing his job. Then, he was disobeying a lot of orders to save the woman he loved. I was nervous of the outcome of him doing so but I understood why he was doing that. One thing that made me more nervous, if not scared, than his disobeying orders was when he threatened to kill Ru Na, Yeon Seo's cousin, if sh...

Hotel Del Luna

Hotel Del Luna (Korean) - Chan Sung & Man Wol   I liked this show. It reminded me a little of Master's Sun in the first episode or two. I liked the relationship that grew between Chan Sung and those in the hotel. Especially from when they tried to get rid of him but he turned around and basically told them he was not going anywhere to when they all started caring for each other. Even up to the very end where they were telling each other goodbye before leaving. There were a few instances where I was scared for Chan Sung's life. One of which was when he was told about a “special” guest the hotel had. To hear that he would go crazy when he sees the guest, I was not happy. That was towards the beginning when everyone was trying to get rid of him because that would mean the hotel would close down. Another was when he collapsed after hugging an image of his friend's younger self when Man Wol was messing with the friend's memories. I was sad that Man Wol ...

Love Around

Love Around (Taiwanese) - Zhe Xuan & Ying Ying I did like this show, not as much as several others and better than others. I liked that there were two very different families that ended up coming together in the end in a positive light rather than the negative one that had been plaguing both for years. I originally started watching to see how Zhou Zhen and Xiao Shu ended up getting together but that changed about halfway through. I did like that he did things for her before they even became friends. It was funny that he won a baseball contest for her just so that she would leave him alone after that. I also did like that he secretly helped her when things were bad for the radio station. Even though it was sad that he broke up with her, I liked that he took her feelings into consideration when he found out how her brother was killed. I was also happy that they eventually got married. But, like I said, I only started watching for the two of them and that stopped at...

Bring It On, Ghost

Bring It On, Ghost (Korean) - Bong Pal & Hyun Ji I enjoyed this show a lot even though there were times I found a couple of characters to be annoying or ridiculous. Though I do have to say that those two were funny at one point or another. With Bong Pal and Hyun Ji, I loved everything about them. Speaking on just the dynamics of their teamwork while hunting, I saw that they could trust one another when it came to watching each other's backs. Also, when Hyun Ji said where the ghost's weak spot was, Bong Pal that she was telling the truth. Speaking about their relationship, it was a roller coaster once they started developing feelings for one another. Specifically when she was a ghost. After they started dating, it was sad to see her have flashbacks of one of their dates because she witnessed people looking at him like he was crazy talking to air since they could not see her. It was also sad that she broke up with him after listening to the monk. I was happy to ...

HIStory 3: Trapped

HIStory 3: Trapped (Taiwanese) - Tang Yi & Shao Fei I tried watching this a few months ago after reading the synopsis or seeing the trailer. After watching the first two of episodes, I ended up pushing it off to the side, never returning to it until a couple of days ago. I truly wanted to watch it but I think it had a slow beginning, at least in my opinion at that time. This time I made myself sit down and watch the whole show from beginning to end. Okay, so maybe I did not watch the whole thing. I do admit I skipped the parts that had Shao Fei's coworker and Tang Yi's employee getting into a relationship, but I did watch the rest of the show. I loved the development of Tang Yi and Shao Fei's relationship. I like that it started out with Shao Fei practically tailing Tang Yi to get information of what had happened four years ago and then they were developing feelings for each other. I liked that Tang Yi was trying to stop his group's mob business ...
