I think this is the shortest one of these I've ever seen...

BTLIOF - loving it but dreading the end. My hopes are so high that I'm scared I'm going to be disappointed. I really am a pessimist/realist, but this show makes me optimistic which in turn makes me worried.
The Package - can't quite bring myself to watch the last episode. I rolled my eyes at the female lead in episode 11 but all the side characters are really interesting. I also like Yong-hwa in this a lot. He does the niave, idealistic character really well (as seen in Three Musketeers as well).

Mad Dog- Ep 14 was better than ep 13. More Min joon and Ha ri interactions. I mean, isn't that why most of us are watching for anyway? Lol! Now aside from that ship, I want my bromance too. Can Min Joon call Kang Woo 'hyung' already? And hugs. I wants lots of hugs in the finale.

Because This Life is My First- Words were spoken. Honest words. But as See hee realised, his words were too slow. I'm glad that he finally found where his heart is. I've got faith that our writer won't waste time on angst. I just wish the pace would pick up a little. Just a tiny bit. Also, I love Jung Min and Su ji. That punch was hectic.

I must find Smart Prison Living subs !!

The temperature of love was hot at the start and pretty chilly by the end haha

It feels empty now that go back spouses has ended~ huhu

Since I have started watching Kdramas for the past year, I have no one physically around me to shares the highs and lows of rising dramas together until my younger cousin who is a Kdrama novice came to visit. I recommended two wonderful but different dramas to watch together -my recent oh-it-hurts-so-good Seven Day Queen and my current everything Because This Life Is Our First. Much to my delight (although not to my surprise) my evil plan of roping her into my drama obsession worked beautifully.....she loves the Queen and is delirious by the First swoonfest.

But I wonder if I have ruined her forever by setting unrealistic expectations and impossible standards for all future viewings? Have I made her fall in love and then too coward to tell her that love like that rarely come along?

Gah, what kind of monster am I? This may be the cruelest thing I have ever done to family.

Yey for that photo!

Only time for 2 this week

OurFirstLife - show just needs to end good so it can officially join Reply 1997 as my Top 1 Kdrama

Mad Dog - good thing we bounced back on Ep 14. Plus Prod Team still needs to give us a goor MJ❤HR end. (hint ship needs to sail)

Buamdong Revenge Club: It's a fun watch.

Because This Life Is Our First: It's okay. I'm invested in main romance but not in the other two.

Meloholic: up to episode 4. It's a bit boring. I think it would be better if it's 2 hour movie that only focused on the leads.

Witch's Court, Because This Life Is Our First & Mad Dog are gonna be by next week and I'm not ready yet *sigh*

I put on hold most on-aired drama since two weeks ago. I want to watch it in one go next weekend. I only watch Mad Dog, I need hari-minjoon's cuteness in my life.
I tried to watch vintage drama this week and landed on Delightful Girl Choon-yang. To my surprise this drama is really delightful to watch. The premise and many tropes in the drama won't work today, but it's still watchable.

I will wait for for the last two episodes of Mad Dog and watch all of them once it is finished. I am very sad that Because of My Life and Witch’s Court is done next week. This month has been really good drama. So far, 2017 has been a good drama and somewhat good Chinese drama. 👍🏼☺️

Witch Court : Ma Yi Deum..love her but I can't bring myself to see hee seduce anyone buy Yeo Geom. Would have been hilarious to watch Yeo saw her attempt. I want him to show a tiny bit of jealousy!

BITLF: ep10..need to catch up.

Dropped TOL for good but might continue 20th later. At least 20th have better side character story. I hate WonJoon for going back to Hong Ah.

Nothing to Lose : Ssong!!! I love her but him? Not so much. What's with the lip touching? It's so distracting...did I miss something? DongHa character........let me be wrong!!!! Never knew I would miss Kim Hae Sook! Miss my FIS cast.

Mad Dog : am I the only one fangirling over Noori? He is an oppa but he looked younger than me.. I feel like hugging him so much more this week. So sad when he cried.

Go back : Kim Mi Kyung is always a fave mom. Oh btw, did you guys know SeoJinie is a girl?! Saw it on insta, her wearing a dress.

The package : didn't care for the main couple but the rest of the stories are so sweet. I especially like the older couple. Oh best young couple is Soso's brother and wife. So cool couple!

Tunnel!!! Trying to finish the good crime thriller kdramas for this year. Forest of Secret done :)
Waiting for Prison Life's sub

I always read this section but boy was it short this week!

Is no one else watching Black except odilletante? You might be wise to skip it for now but if it really pays off by the end, which i'm anticipating, you all should watch it. Confusing as hell but so fun to guess at what's going on and funny and interesting throughout. Anyway, people should stay tuned (but not spoiled) to hear if the ending ties up all the lose ends and if so, definitely watch it.

Temperature of Love - I wish this is a movie instead and it would probably remain as my favourite romance movie. Without Seo Hyun-jin in this, I would've never bother to check the last 4 epi after stopped watching in the middle.

Meloholic -This show is worth-checking just to see Han Ye-ri become embarrased because of what Han Ju-ri did. Han Ju-ri is one crazy girl - she is doing all kind of stuffs that no one would think Han Ye-ri will do. Just imagine Eun ho sleeps with Han Ye-ri at night, but tomorrow morning the one who wake up besides him is Han Ju-ri LOL. Entertaining drama.

Buamdong Revenge Club - Great show. I would miss our Avengers Club a lot, and will re-watch it definitely. Hope there will be a season 2,3,4 and so on.

Nothing To Lose - Show, what you want to show us actually? I found cases weren't developed well so far but I think I can ignore it for now. But a judge who is supposed to control her own courtroom is unable to control her own temper and to the extent open her own robe? This isn't make sense at all, that a judge failed to obeserve courtroom etiquette which is clearly very basic. They can make use her temper in different situation though. I love Park Eun-bin and Yeon Woo-jin in this, and their chemistry are great. Dong-ha is fine too. I hope it will improve. But the decrease on rating for epi 3-4 might be not be a very good sign? Especially I'm Not A Robot is going to start next week. It's funny how Yoo Seung-ho and Park Eun-bin are competing with each other, since they were partners in several drama before.

Money Flower : I haven't watched last week's epi yet. Plan to catch up this weekend.

Looking forward to watch Wise PrIson Life with Eng Sub! Untoucheable 's rating was quite good for first epi compared to The Package -hope can have time to watch it.

Mad Dog is good. Oh so good! They keep teasing us with push-pull flirty scenes of Ha ri and Min Joon but nothing more serious than that. Way to keep us hooked! Loving the bromance, but also loving the villains. Can I say that Joo Hyun ki plays one of the most interesting and layered villain I have seen in dramas, this year?

Because It’s My First Life is still golden, an understated gem.

I’m going to miss Go Back Spouses now that it’s over. It was such a heartwarming drama!

Judge vs. Judge - The writing was over the top in many parts. (Maybe an attempt at humor, to even out the dark subject matter?) I almost dropped it, but for my love of the excellent cast. However, some parts of it were introspective and showed promise.

No dramas, only K-Shows 💙 watched during previous we and this week :
*I live alone e221 : they're back !! Park Na Rae date part 2 was so funny, Choong Jae was shy and Kian84 worst wingman indeed hahaha 😂. Lee Si Un so funny with his Busan friends, can't wait To watch his drama . And the fashion battle that nobody cares about 😂
*1n2d E202 : an old ep, I surprised myself , seeing the trees and the alley I knew it was the special with Yoo Ji Tae 😅. Very funny just like the 1st time, the quiz relay with emotions is still hilarious 😂
*Master key e4-6 : it's getting so much better with the angel/demon keys : Kang Daniel angel and Ong Seong Woo demon won : ah Seong Woo after loosing all games in one ep he fooled them all 😎
*Wanna one go e3 : homemade food 💙, 11 guys always funny To watch 😃
*Youth over flowers - winner e3 : the pants incident/misunderstanding : communication solves it 😀. Stars buying children hats because it's cheaper but rent a small SUV 😂

Revenge club - love. Haven't watched the finale bec then it would end!!!

Mad dog- fun ride. Kiss already pls. Kiss. Kiss

Judge vs judge - cringe fest. But i have SLS already

Btliof- unpopular opinion but what pretentious nonsense! Instead of show we have a lot of tell with long inner monologs with soft lighting . Dropped

Money flower- this is going to be a full makjang! But jang hyuk, so i stay

Let's get the new shows already...

nope they had a baby boy but the child playing seojin is actually a girl in real life. :)

Because This Life is Our First: I simply love every dialogue and narration in this drama. They're all very eye-opening lines that were delivered in an understated way, which somehow still manages to worm into my heart and stay there for a long time.

Go Back Spouses: A warm-hearted and moving drama with a very satisfying ending that left me with my heart full. It makes me cry almost every eps, but the good kind of cry that I didn't regret at all. I'll definitely watch out for this duo writer-director's next project.

Because This Life Is Our First.
Oh my! This drama is ruining my life, but on the other hand, it is so good, it's making me coming back to life. For me, that is literature. Not so long ago I wrote a novel, and even when it is not do god, I cried writing some parts. Now because of this beautiful masterpiece, I am eager to come back to writing even though I have two jobs and other problems to take care of.
Thank you: Lee minki and jung Somin, for making me laugh, cry and fall in love with poetry and beauty again.
I may ever search for translations of Korean poetry now. I will let you know,, beanies.
Keep fighting!!!!

The last season spoiled me: Because This is My First Life, Go Back Couple, and While You Were Sleeping. I'm going to compare everything to BTIMFL, which means I will probably return to my drama slump period.

I'm still watching Witch's Court and Mad Dog, but only for the couples bickering out of love. I dropped Temperature of Love at midpoint; read some of the recaps but never got the motivation to pick it back up. Nothing to Lose makes me feel like flipping tables despite having Yeon Woo Jin and beloved Dong Ha on screen. Money Flower and Untouchable's premise didn't make me interested at all. I haven't seen Smart Prison Living, but if the bromance is that good then I will have to try.

Or maybe I should just hibernate and wake up when Hwayugi is ready to air.

BTIOFL is ending next week. *cries

I started watching Smart Prison Living because I need something to watch after BTIOFL ends. I almost dropped it after half an episode, but I ended up finishing the episode. Not bad, I'll watch the second episode to see how it goes.

As for revolutionary love, how are they still not together? Also, can they stop making Gong Myung's character more miserable that it already is?

I'm also watching this jdrama called Rikuoh. It's so good! Too bad it only airs one episode a week. Sunday, please come quicker! (Although that also means thanksgiving break is over..)

I'm holding off on watching any dramas until winter break. :( But if there are subs out for Smart Prison Life (or whatever it's called), then I just might be tempted...

BTLIOF - Though I trust the writers I wish there was more time. I felt the main couple had too little screen time this week, to give room for the other couples to develop. All stories are interesting but I need more of Se Hee and Ji Ho :-) Hope we won't have to wait too long until he finally finds the courage to confess. I want to see what happens afterwards.

Black: Still liking this drama very much and I'm glad it's not ending yet.

Nothing to lose: I'm giving it a try because of Yeon Woo-Jin, but I need a week more to decide if I'll watch it. I skipped many parts.

Smart prision living: Waiting for a kind soul to sub this one!!

ToL : I really didn't like the end. But I love the main couple.

BITFL : The story is really great. All the characters are interesting.

Witch's Court : It's not bad but I think the couple was the main reason I watch it so now it's more about the cases, it's a little more boring.

Mad Dog : I like how the writer kept the balance between the villains and Mad Dogs. The couple is so cute, I love how all the team is involved and tease them :p

Judge vs Judge : I think they start with a lot of humour before that the story becomes more dark. I'm really curious about the fact that her brother seems innocent and if the culprit is the son of the judge (who judged her brother knowing the truth ?) and the politician. For now PEB and YWJ have a great chemistry.

Black : I think I'm missing all the clues in the drama. And it's exhausting to watch Haram, I would like a heroin who seems to think before acting.

Because This is Our First Life: The soundtrack is so awesome and jazzy.

Witch's Court: I'm behind with this week's episodes, and whether I'll catch up or not is unclear.

20th Century Boy and Girl: I need more Young-shil, she's my favourite! And please, less Ah-reum, show. Sure, I like her a little more now that she's lovesick, but I still find her unbearably childish.

While You Were Sleeping: I finally deciding to start catching up, and I'm glad I did. I have two episodes left. I don't think this show ever did thriller as well as I Hear Your Voice (or even Pinocchio), but Park Hye-ryun was definitely in her element with heartwarming and hilarious character interactions. I wish I could have seen more mother-daughter, because I know how well she does that, but you can't have everything.

Buam-dong Revenge Club: I've got to episode nine. Out of what I'm currently watching, this is definitely my clear favourite. I'm appreciating more insight into Mi-sook Unnie's character, because she's clearly very sweet and her joining the club made less sense to me. The show really needed to delve deeper than her good nature, and they did.

Plus Nine Boys: Cute.

The Package: I'm genuinely very, very sad that so many of you missed out on this gem. There was a character for everyone, and even if you hated them all, the setting would have blown you away.

Go Back Couple: Now that these two are done, my weekends are looking seriously bleak.

Anyone watched Nothing to Lose yet? Thoughts?

Because This Life Is Our First — can't wait to catch the final episodes, given that I have a habit of not finishing dramas (even the ones I was really invested in the beginning and followed up till 10 episodes or more, e.g. Go Back Spouses).
Smart Prison Living — my new crack (heh!) now that BTLIOF is ending. I've only watched Answer Me 1997 so I didn't figure out it's the same PD, but I'm very happy to be following this deadpan, black comedy infused drama. Pleasantly surprised to find R&B hip-hop BGM in some scenes. Bromance is the cherry on top.
My Golden Life — I check it every 2-3 weeks. Watching it mostly for Shin Hye-sun, so lots of fast-forwarding and skipping scenes.
Wish it was Monday already!

Was waiting for this to see which of the new ones to try. I'm really not sure about Nothing to Lose because making them judges just seems, well, like teenagers dressing up? Smart Prison Living goes on the list though. Especially as Package and Avengers Social Club (liked them both a lot) have now finished leaving me with not a lot to watch.

GF's comments on Smart Prison Living just makes me wanna watch it more :(

Subbing gods, please save us.

I actually feel like BTIFOL didn't quite deliver this week. The monologues felt longer, but then again it was Se Hee's monologues so I don't complain. Secondly, the writer's game of withholding key information doesn't fool us into making wild theories anymore. We just sit back and wait for revelations, which can be a bit much for the impatient viewer. More seriously, I needed more closure with Se Hee's first love Jung Min. She didn't even get a 'sorry'. This is the first time I am taking an ex-girlfriend's side like this.

I am in the middle of binge-watching Buamdong Revenge Club and it is just the breezy kind of show I needed to complement the deep contemplative watch that is BTIOFL.

I will just say the truck of doom hit again but this time with 2 xD

Witch Court: I tried 3 times watched it until 8 ep can't anymore,so dropped

BTLIOF : I enjoy the show, it's so akward but in a good way :)

Mad dog: It's okay not feeling very hype about it still continu.

Golden Life: Strangely i enjoy the ride lol

Nothing to lose: quite fun, see what up next week :). And mother and Son from Marriage not dating, hihi not in the same role but that is funny.

i have to catch up with Money Flower, i don't know what to think about this one, maybe will be drop

Hello! I hope you're all having a great weekend.

I'm currently watching Because This Life is Our First and I can't believe that we're down to our last 2 episodes in a few days! What a gem, honestly.

Wise Prison Life - I'm actually enjoying this. I hope it will be better than expected. Cheers!

I've dropped Temperature of Love a long time ago. It just wasn't worth my 20 hours. It would have been better if it were only 16 hours.

Still catching up on Witch's Court, Black & 20th Century Boy & Girl. Let's see.

Anybody watching Untouchable? How's it going so far?

Because This Life is Our First: I love the dialogue. I love the characters. I love the use of literature. I don't know what I'm going to do with my Mondays and Tuesdays after it ends.

Nothing to Lose: I realize that a realistic portrayal of judges would be boring, but legal dramas almost always lose me with how illogical they are and Park Eun Bin's character had me reaching for the off button.

The only other show that I'm keeping up with is Money Flower. It's not often that I'm in the mood for something so makjang but so far this one is working for me.

Black: Even with the God's Gift writer writing it, I'd never thought I'd be so into it. What an amazing fantasy-thriller-mystery and I like how romance is really like only 3% of the drama. Episode 12 left me genuinely afraid for our heroine.

Witch's Court: Same old. Same old. Whenever she makes one of her awesome entrances, I sit straight up and lean in to watch what she's going to say or do next.

Buamdong Revenge Club: 10 out of 10 stuck the landing! I'm so proud of our ladies and Soo-gyum. It was a drama that left me with a happy, goofy smile on my face, especially when Jung Hye really did get a sauna installed in one of her properties.

Because This Life is Our First: Devastated by the HR and WS breakup, even though it was for the best. I love how it is Se-Hee's ex, Jung-Min, that serves as the catalyst for Ji Ho getting back into writing again.

Let Us Meet, Joo Oh - KBS special: This is a pretty cute drama special with Son Jo Jun and Jo Bo Ah. He's a matchmaker and she's a country bumpkin seeking a city boy to marry. Takes place in 1930s Seoul/Gyeongseong though the costuming is jarringly modern (some dresses too short, heels way too high, heroine's hair too brown).

Just started Witch's Court and finished episode 4.

It hurts so good.

On a side note, does anyone think that Dramabean's Shop Sale banner remind us of Subway? Does it do PPL even in here? hahahaha

Now that ToL ended that a big relief, It was a tough journey for all beanies who sticked to that show. Somehow it paid off at the last 2 hours so it seems okay. ^_^
