2022 did not fail to serve us quality Korean dramas. Fans, like me, had a hard time catching up. Proof to show is my growing list of Kdramas to finish and watch! But as 2023 comes with more series to stay up late at night for, I am presenting my quick review of the Korean dramas I watched, I am yet to finish and are still on my watchlist. Warning: contains spoilers. 1. AGAIN MY LIFE 3/5 Lee Joong Gi, Kim Ji Eun I love this series, but the ending is a letdown. It feels wrong that Kim Hee Woo (Lee Joong Gi), who is fighting for justice and avenging his own death (which led to his second shot at life), decided to join the political race to beat Cho Tae Sub (Lee Geung Young) rather than use his position as a prosecutor. I am even more disappointed when Tae Sub “died” although it is not clear if it was really him who was found dead in the ocean. He might have faked his own death, you know. Still, it does not feel justice is served. Another villain has appeared befor...
It's been a long time since I binge-watched a Korean drama. The last Korean drama I finished in one sitting was "Duty After School" Season 1 (so it's not really been a long time yet lol). I actually had no intention of watching Netflix's freshly dropped series "Celebrity", but the plot piqued my interest, so I gave it a go. And boy, it was a mistake: I had to stay overnight to finish it. The good thing was the meeting I had the following day was canceled. LMAO. Anyway, "Celebrity" is about Seo A-Ri (Park Gyu Young), an 'e-celebrity' who is supposedly dead but returns from death to do a live stream and expose the true and ugly side of the glitzy and glamorous world of influencers. This is what I read somewhere (I could not find it anymore), which hooked me to watch this new series. It is soooo addicting to watch especially when I couldn't really tell what will happen next. Everything is so fresh and new and surprising that I question...
