DRAMA OF THE MONTH: Moon Lovers: Scarlet Heart Ryeo

moon-lovers

Sitting down to write this review, I feel completely conflicted. Not because this drama isn’t fantastic (because it totally is) but because it’s also terrible and wonderful and amazing and awful and it makes you feel so many things and sometimes it’s wonderful and sometimes it hurts and sometimes you cry and sometimes you laugh and other times you swoon and all of the time you wonder how you’re ever going to find a way to go back to “normal” life because you know this drama has completely ruined you for all of eternity, in both the best and worse ways possible. Yeah… That pretty much sums up all of my feelings for Moon Lovers: Scarlet Heart Ryeo. Continue reading “DRAMA OF THE MONTH: Moon Lovers: Scarlet Heart Ryeo”

Rage Against the K-Drama Machine –  The Scarlet Heart: Ryeo Edition

scarletheart_2016-09-21-19h20m41s165

So my good friend Raine (from Raine’s Dichotomy) and I spent a good portion of our day today talking about the latest episodes of Scarlet Heart: Ryeo and well, we just couldn’t get all of our feelings out in one conversation. That being the case, we decided to get together and throw ourselves a little rage party. Of course no drama rant would be complete without you, our awesome readers, so we decided to share a bit of our conversation, in the hopes that you might join us as we discuss this most amazing, infuriating, yet completely addictive drama.

ZOMBIE’S DRAMA RAMBLINGS: The Struggles of Impossible Love, Pt. 2 – Scarlet Heart: Ryeo

running-away

Out of all of the complicated loves in this currently airing set of dramas, the struggles of Hae Soo in Scarlet Heart: Ryeo seem to be the most impossible to sort out. With 18,000 princes, a king, a jealous princess and no relatives around to protect her, it’s easy to understand why Hae Soo’s life is more than a little complicated but when you throw in a tangled mess of love interests and a plot to steal the crown, you’ve got a story no drama-lover can resist.

K-POP ONE-STOP: October 23-30, 2015

Hip Hip Hooray! It’s finally Friday! And while I’m not dancing on the rooftops today to celebrate (because dancing on the roof when you have cold is very dangerous… Stuffy head + loss of equilibrium = death) I’m still happy in my own subdued way. (Celebrating by staying in bed all day counts as celebrating, doesn’t it?) To celebrate the end of another work week, let’s take a look back at some of this past week’s MV releases, shall we?

K-POP ONE-STOP: July 10-17, 2015

Jump

Do you ever feel like dancing for no other reason than just because? Well that’s me today. I don’t even have a reason for it, really. I’m just happy it’s Friday. Maybe I’m happy that a week from today I’ll be seeing BTS in person. Maybe it’s because the sun is shining, my kids are playing nicely (for once) or because I ate a giant bowl of kimchi stew for lunch. It could possibly be because we’ve got a bunch of new (and super awesome) K-Pop MVs to watch… Who knows? Whatever the reason, I’m gonna dance. While I watch these videos. Care to join me?

ZOMBIE’S DRAMA REVIEW: Producer Episodes 11-12

holding hands

I can’t believe we’ve come to the end of this rather quirky and adorable drama but we have. It’s been an interesting run, full of unique, interesting and ultimately, lovable characters and I’ve enjoyed the time I’ve spent watching this one, particularly in the moments when Seung Chan made me squee over his cuteness. But there’s more to talk about than one oddly adorable rookie producer so let’s get to it! Continue reading “ZOMBIE’S DRAMA REVIEW: Producer Episodes 11-12”

ZOMBIE’S DRAMA REVIEW: Producer Episodes 9-10

cute smile

With only two episodes standing between us and the end of this drama, you know things this week and going to pick up and oh boy, do they ever! Confessions are flying left and right yet we’re still no closer to figuring out how this complicated love square is going to work out. While we may not have an idea how these couples are going to pair off, we do still have a lot to talk about so let’s get to it! Continue reading “ZOMBIE’S DRAMA REVIEW: Producer Episodes 9-10”

ZOMBIE’S DRAMA REVIEW: Producer Episodes 7-8

fireworks

*sings* Feelings, nothing more than feelings. So many stinking feelings, yet no one will commit… Teardrops, rolling down on my face. Trying to forget my feelings of frustration… *ahem* So sorry, I’ve gotten a little carried away with oldies recently (okay, always) but really, there’s not a better way to sum up this week’s episodes. There are so many feelings running rampant this week yet no one is willing to do anything about them. Well, okay, that’s not entirely true but one kiss hardly makes up for the lack of action on every other front. Or does it? Continue reading “ZOMBIE’S DRAMA REVIEW: Producer Episodes 7-8”

ZOMBIE’S DRAMA REVIEW: Producer Episodes 5-6

sleeping on the bus

Before we talk about this week’s episodes I just have to ask, is anyone else falling hard for Baek Seung Chan or am I alone in my swooning? Something tells me Cindy and I aren’t the only ones charmed by his cuteness but I had to ask anyway, just to make sure. Now that that’s out of the way, let’s discuss this week’s episodes, shall we?
