REVIEW: Record of Youth

Let me be clear: I didn’t have a problem with the acting. These actors just weren’t given much to work with.

REVIEW: Good Bye, My Princess [C-drama]

Their chemistry was just that believable, and their magnetic attraction to one another is like C-drama crack.

REVIEW: Royal Nirvana [C-drama]

A melodrama of epic proportions. I can’t remember the last time I witnessed this level of waterworks. A heartbreaking tale of so much woe. I hope you see it.

REVIEW: It’s Okay to Not Be Okay

You probably better crack open this fairytale before it whacks you upside the head. Take it from this psycho—this show is ~crazy~ good.

Streaming Recommends – C-Drama

I created this list of incredibly binge-worthy C-drama shows currently available on Netflix! This group represents my recommendations of shows that I’ve personally seen. Happy Subtitles, and stay safe out there!

REVIEW: Chocolate

If you have 16 hours to spare and don’t mind some melodrama in your kimchi, then check in to this hospice facility and see if it inspires you to keep living.
