      This show must know that YYS is in my top five favourite K celebs, so it’s just taunting me and trying to make it so that I re-watch this episode over and over again instead of doing work.

    Gyeo-ul is one lucky woman.

      True, although I love Gyeo-ul in this show too. I figure they’re both lucky to have each other.

Dam torturing Woo-yeo by not letting him smoke is so fun. This role suits Hyeri. She can basically just be herself.

Jang Ki-yong can rap! Examples:

    I saw clips of him rapping on IG and I started swooning. He is my new oppa now.

My mom has a shirt that looks just like the shirt Mark’s wearing.

Yay, they brought Ahn Jae-hyeon back for Spring Camp.

    I was so happy seeing him back and reuniting with the YB!!! And even if indeed he lost a lot of weight he looks good!

Interesting, albeit possibly controversial, podcast episode from ChinaTalk.

    It was informative for me. I did wonder why I’m having a difficult time finding quality dramas from China. Now I know. I’m sure one day China will learn how to make quality dramas, so in the meantime, there’s always Kdramas and Tdramas.

    Love that other lady mentioning Someday or One Day.

Oh God. I see what direction they\’re going to go with harabeoji in Navillera and it makes me very nervous. It could be really well-done; it could be a disaster.

    Right. I did wonder why they made both Haraboji and Chae-rok understand each other so soon. I’m sure that’s the direction the show is taking Maq. I’m crossing my fingers now.

      Sigh. Dementia is not a bad topic to deal with, but there’s so much already going on this show. I would’ve been content with this theme being omitted. However, it does sort of make sense. It’s a part of aging for many (unfortunately) and this show is trying to be true (at least in broad strokes) to the experience of an older dancer.

    There was something in the first week that made me wonder and then today’s episode made me sure. It makes me sad, but I think they can do it well.

    Especially when he keeps saying that he’s running out of time. Sigh – I wish they wouldn’t go there. 🙁
    and yet I understand why

Took us a while to finally hear him sing this live, but OMG it’s so good sung live!

While I’m posting 2PM songs, I’ll also recommend this one, which I’ve always thought was underrated. I especially like Nichkhun, Chansung, and Junho’s parts in this song.

    Should say Wooyoung too, now that I re-listen to it. Tbh, I think Minjun got the sucky part of the song, especially with the dumb “All my sexy ladies refrain”. Taecyeon’s rap is, always, dece but nothing amazing.

      “all my sexy ladies” refrain

      Also, for some reason, when Junho sings, “my sexy ladies”, in this song, it’s somehow more tolerable and actually pretty nice sounding. No offence to Minjun, of course, since he’s a great singer usually.

        Whenever Junho sings anything it gets better.
        I know Jun. K. Is the main vocalist but I’ve always liked JunHo’s voice the most.

Is it just me, or is there not a lot very good on air right now? Navillera is the best Korean thing on air since Run On (in my humble opinion). Otherwise, the best thing on air that I\’ve tried watching is You Are My Hero.

    It is a dry spell in dramaland. Navillera is good but still not outstanding enough to compel me to watch every week.
    Though You Are My Hero is good indeed, plus the slow burn romance works well in the Chinese drama format. I kept putting it off thinking it’s another Dots but it’s not. And is better and does one thing right which Dots totally skipped, A journalist in a disaster zone.

      Agreed. Navillera has nice aspects, but it’s not as engrossing as I wish and has some cliched elements that I think detract from what is otherwise a very fresh concept. I think it’s the type of show which would be better binged than watched on weekly basis.

      I’m deep enough into You Are My Hero to have plenty of complaints tbh. I think it’s a solid show overall, but I wish they focused much more on the main couple. I don’t care at all about the second or third couples. I also wish they were a bit less withholding with the cuteness involving the main couple. It feels a little too staid at times, especially in the first 12 or so episodes.

        I have progressed a little into You are My Hero to know what you are saying. I actually only care about the main couple and no one else, not even their professions lol. So yeah it gets cute a little later on but I’m only staying for that.

      Yes, a real gem all around! I actually miss it and may re-watch in the summer.

    Agree about Navillera. I think there are a few entertaining shows but everything else is so dark. It’s not a dry spell but a dark one for me.

    Not much is really grabbing me right now – I’m really enjoying Mouse but that is very much not everyone’s cup of tea. Otherwise I’m diving into the oldies for awhile.

    Vincenzo is my happy pill.
    And as you, Navillera.
    For the rest I’m just watching.

    Good dramas that suits my taste and current mood are scarce now. I recalled only completing Confession, Dr. Romantic 2, 365, Forest of Secrets 2, and now Vincenzo these past few years. With months of nothing in between.

Parents went to get their vaccines. For the first time in forever, I have the house all to myself for a little while. So what do I do? Well, I crank up Google Home with this:

    How fun! Lol. It’s been forever since I’ve had the house to myself. I love karoake-ing horribly when my fam is gone. Last time, they came home early because it was too cold and I was in the middle of my playlist. Who knows when my next karaoke party will happen!

      It was so fun! I think my house was shaking with all the 2PM songs! I’m surprised our neighbours didn’t call the cops.

        Mine haven’t called the cops, and they must think what kind of awkward loud music is that?? 😆

          Yo! I forgive my neighbors a lot! So I think that it is their duty to let me sing out of pitch aloud sometimes, haha😂

The fact that Tae-sul is just a Koreanization of Tesla (especially when the affectionate vocative case \”아\” (\”-ah\”) is added after name) is so cringe.

\”Historical accuracy\”? Umm, the show is about fighting evil spirits. https://www.soompi.com/article/1460841wpp/joseon-exorcist-sees-drop-in-ratings-after-controversy-over-historical-accuracy

    I was going to at least start it anyway, but this silliness would make me more likely to watch a show, not less.

    Imagine a fantasy drama that is expected to be historically accurate.

    I think it’s silly that every costume dramas have to be historically accurate. I don’t like that Chinese-style censorship is creeping into Korean entertainment industry. Anyone in the right mind knows that these shows are purely for entertainment ~~

Oh my. I\’m so angry for Captain Yoo. Sergeant Oh is horrible.

Actually, one thing I will say about Prison Playbook is that the relationship between Ji-ho and Je-hyuk is super creepy. In real life, it would look eerily like grooming.
