I’ve got another mini-drama for you to sneak in during this overly busy time of year and this one features the six adorable boys of the K-pop group, ASTRO, which means there’s a whole lot of eye candy for you to indulge in! Happy Christmas to you! Continue reading “FRIDAY NIGHT DRAMA: To Be Continued”
FRIDAY NIGHT DRAMA: Love Cells
With yesterday being Thanksgiving here in the States, it’s safe to say the holiday season is fully upon us. If you’re anything like me, that means from now until the end of the year, life is going to be pretty crazy. With so much going on, it’s hard to find time to sit down and marathon an entire drama, which is why this week, I’m recommending another mini web drama, Love Cells.
Originally airing on Naver TVCast in November, 2014, Love Cells, is the story of a jobless, pathetic, twenty-something by the name of Ma Dae Choong (Park Sun Ho) whose cat, Nebi (Kim Yoo Jung), is magically transformed into a “love cell,” a sort of mystical matchmaker, if you will. With only a month left before Dae Choong is doomed to the life of a bachelor forever, Nebi must transform him into the leading man of his own romantic story by helping him win the heart of the beautiful idol, Seo Rin (Nam Ji Hyun). It’s certainly not an easy job but Nebi never gives up, especially not when her life’s on the line!
You know, I’ve probably already said too much about this drama, just in that short little recap, so I’m not going to say a whole lot more. (Thus the problem or reviewing mini-dramas, I suppose.) What I will say is that this drama is super silly but it’s also pretty darn cute. Dae Choong is a likeable enough fellow and Nebi is adorable. The drama is based on a webtoon so you can imagine things are pretty unrealistic (because the magic love cell cat wasn’t enough of a tip-off…) but sometimes you just need a little silly in your life. The cameos in this drama are fantastic. I was rolling on the floor during some of them (you’ll know which ones without me saying anything) while others shocked the snot out of me, in a good way, of course. (Again, you’ll know what I’m talking about as soon as this person steps into the shot.)
I rather enjoyed this drama, silliness and all. I just wasn’t a fan of the ending. Not because it was a bad ending, by any means. It was actually what I wanted… Sort of. I can’t say anything without giving it away so you’re just going to have to watch it and then come back and talk to me. Of course if you’ve already watched this one, you could go ahead and tell me what you thought of it in the comments below!
FRIDAY NIGHT DRAMA: Twenty Again
This week’s drama quickly rose to the top of my favorites list when it originally aired. The cast was fantastic, the story was touching and it brought about a lot of self-reflection on my part, which is not something a lot of dramas inspire me to do. When the drama came to an end I was sad to see it go because I felt as if I was being forced to say goodbye to a good friend. Leaving me with so many good vibes, I felt it only fitting to recommend Twenty Again as a this weekend’s drama to marathon. Continue reading “FRIDAY NIGHT DRAMA: Twenty Again”
FRIDAY NIGHT DRAMA: One Sunny Day
Once again a drama was recommended to me as one I needed to watch, so I did, and shock of all shocks, I now find myself now recommending that very same drama to you. Funny how things like that work, isn’t it? Continue reading “FRIDAY NIGHT DRAMA: One Sunny Day”
FRIDAY NIGHT DRAMA: We Broke Up
You know, when it was suggested I watch We Broke Up I thought to myself, “Sure! Why not? I’ll give it a try!” So I did, going into it knowing nothing more about it than that it starred 2NE1’s Dara. Honestly, that was enough of a reason for me to give this drama a go so I didn’t bother to look any more into it. I just dove right in and not two seconds into the darn thing I found myself squeeing so hard I almost fell off the couch! WHY DID NO ONE TELL ME KANG SEUNG YOON WAS IN THIS DRAMA!?! Needless to say, I was immediately hooked and now I sit here trying to find a way to control my spazzing long enough to talk about this cute little drama. Continue reading “FRIDAY NIGHT DRAMA: We Broke Up”
FRIDAY NIGHT DRAMA: Mask
As a drama addict, I’ll be the first to admit there are times when a sweet, fluffy drama is the only thing I want to watch but there are times when something a little more dramatic is what I crave. In a world saturated with melodrama, it can sometimes be difficult to decide which drama I want to have satisfy that craving. My most recent over-the-top melodrama fix came in the form of a highly addicting, 20 episode drama full of ridiculous situations, family turmoil and an incredibly easy-to-love OTP. Continue reading “FRIDAY NIGHT DRAMA: Mask”
FRIDAY NIGHT DRAMA: Noble, My Love
I must be on a mini-drama kick because I can’t seem to stop watching them. Maybe it’s because they’re so much easier to finish than a full-fledged drama or maybe they’re just too much fun, I’m not really sure. Whatever the reason, I’ve got a super cute little drama you can marathon this weekend and still have time to go out with your friends… Or stay home and watch another drama, because let’s me honest, that’s usually a whole lot more fun. (Aaaand I just admitted my lameness to the world… Way to go, me! *smh*) Continue reading “FRIDAY NIGHT DRAMA: Noble, My Love”
FRIDAY NIGHT DRAMA: EXO Next Door
This weekend’s drama to marathon is another one of those dramas that’s really more of a drama 5K than an actual marathon; it’s short, hilarious and so full of adorable idols you may die from an overload of cuteness. Well, I did anyway. Continue reading “FRIDAY NIGHT DRAMA: EXO Next Door”
FRIDAY NIGHT DRAMA: Oh My Ghost
This weekend’s drama to marathon is everything a marathon-worthy drama should be. It’s cute, it’s funny, it’s mysterious, it’s imaginative, it’s chock-full of warm fuzzies, it’s got a fantastic cast, a great plot and an ending that doesn’t make you want to throw your computer across the room and then set it on fire. In short, it’s the perfect drama to curl up with as you unwind over the weekend. Continue reading “FRIDAY NIGHT DRAMA: Oh My Ghost”
FRIDAY NIGHT DRAMA: Warm and Cozy
This weekend’s drama to marathon is a warm, squishy drama so full of heart-melting moments that by the end of it you’ve been reduced to nothing more than a quivering puddle of goo. (Well, at least that how I felt by the end…) Continue reading “FRIDAY NIGHT DRAMA: Warm and Cozy”
