We haz snow… and series!

Posted on January 23, 2014 by ethlenn

     Finally, the winter arrived here and I’m sure I will hate it by the mid-March. Few new series started, few ended, some went on a hiatus. And since none of Fall/Winter Kdramas were doing it for me, I … Continue reading →

You Surely Can’t Be Serious!

Posted on September 14, 2013 by ethlenn

I am serious. And don’t call me Shirley.  So I’m back, disinterested in currently airing Kdramas as never before. After having a blast this past Spring, nothing actually caught my attention, not when Under The Dome started and got into … Continue reading →

Cruel Palace Off The Chest

Posted on June 20, 2013 by ethlenn

   Except for Monstar this drama became the one I check the subs for the most often. We are after 26 episodes and drama is scheduled to 50, so that makes us sitting right in the middle of the events. … Continue reading →

Sageuk slump

Posted on March 6, 2013 by ethlenn

   By sageuk I mean also to include daeha. It may be only my biased view but lately there is a significant slump in period drama production and those that are made, somehow fail to deliver. Last year there was … Continue reading →

Little update

Posted on February 22, 2013 by ethlenn

   I’m not dead yet, today I’m really close to it, however. February is a horrible month for K-entertainment, one of the worsts in few years. And only SHINee shining comeback is actually the beam of light (well, a horrible … Continue reading →

On the drama table

Posted on January 31, 2013 by ethlenn

   This year started in a bad way. I have never thought I could drop Park Shihu’s drama. Alas, I did. Worse – I have absolutely no regrets whatsoever about this. There’s no going back, crawling and begging to give … Continue reading →

Annoyingly subjective kdrama post

Posted on January 10, 2013 by ethlenn
