Anne: Hello Drama Lovers! I have not posted for a few weeks. The time is slipping really quickly from week to week. Last Monday, I was with 3 other adults and 1 seven year old as we stared at a cloud covered sky, hoping for a peek if and when the clouds would part a little. This was the last peak of the eclipse before the cloud completely obscured the little bit of sun we could see. At least the light was still visible through the clouds, so we saw the darkness fall. We didn't go very far and was prepared for the cloud cover, so it wasn't unexpected. The experience was still pretty ok. Now ..read more

Anne: Hello Drama Lovers! Well...the year of the dragon is proving, once again, bringing challenging situations to fellow dragon year born people. Ok, I'm exaggerating, but we are only getting close to April and already have issues where I'm bleeding money to the Universe. On top of that, I feel like my intelligence is going the other way. Basically, I watched myself do the stupid thing as I'm doing it, and knowing that it was stupid, but still doing it anyway. As soon as I hit the "ok" on the change password, the little voice inside my head said...oh...you shouldn't have done that...  Ye ..read more

SHUK: After the last episode, I am ready for some sweet times!! Trotwood: After the last episode, I am ready for some Ji-won badass times. Like I'm ready for her to go all Rurouni Kenshin on these people. Why is it just judo? I want weapons. I want her with a sword. EPISODE 10 Weasel has a screaming hissy fit at home, until he is smacked around by WeaselMom. They yell at each other until even I am annoyed. (But at least someone was getting smacked) Weasel decides to bolt for Ji-won’s place and pound on the door. Ji-won opens the door. Except, it appears she has moved. She is actua ..read more

SHUK: The players are all in place for Act II, and I for am ready to see some slimy business washed away. Anyway, things are starting to get complicated and heavy as Ji-won starts snipping the twisted threads between her old fate and her new one. We do have lots of cute moments between our Ji-loves, and Ji-hyuk proves his steadiness over and over. On the other hand, I have run out of words to describe how crazy Soo-min has become. And we have a long way to go until the end. Holy Schnikes! Trotwood: I don't think we need to even think of more words for her. She is painting the picture all on h ..read more

Anne: Happy Tuesday drama lovers! I have been really late posting this month, mostly due to my frustrations at work (with QA) and the lack of desire to watch anything these last few weeks. But I have finally turned a corner (the situation with QA has been resolved) and I have finished my latest craft. Now my mind has been calmed, and my brain is back in focus. Now, before we get to the discussion on the shows I've managed to watch, let's take a quick look at my latest finished craft (I have a new one I'm itching to start soon). There are a few mistakes, but otherwise I am very happy with how ..read more

SHUK: A little woodsy romance for our favorite pair. Ji-hyuk is steady and tall as a tree and hopefully Ji-won will have fun climbing him. And formally meeting Cheese Kitty. Our SleazePair, however, are still sinking into the depths of disgustingness. There’s no doubt who will win in the end, but how much crap will the heroes have to wade through?  Trotwood: That kitty is deceptively cute. But then aren't all cats? Our SleazePair, on the other hand, want to be deceptive, but since we already know their story . . . EPISODE 8 Our SleazePair traipse down to the river, only to find that th ..read more

SHUK:  So, the cat’s outta the bag, and our Cutie Couple realize that they both went back in time. So, now what?  I think Teamwork Makes The DreamWork, and I am expecting some massive cooperation to bring down all those annoying obstacles that obstructed them the first time around. Trotwood:I'm in favor of this. I cannot understand why more shows don't make the main couple a team. There are SO MANY possible problems couples can fight together that it frustrates me that show writers don't seem to be able to do anything but base tension on tension between a couple instead of the force ..read more

 SHUK:  We established that our Hottie Boss Ji-hyuk has also transmigrated into the past. So there are at least two people trying to change their sad sad pasts. I wonder if there are any others that might throw a monkey wrench into things. Also, is Ji-hyuk becoming a bit…stalkerish? Trotwood: He's a stalker. In this life and the past life so stalker squared? But I'd welcome this giant green flag stalker any day of the week into any room in my apartment. I wouldn't even make him take off his big shoes! Snakey has bolted down the cray cray path... EPISODE 5 Based on the shor ..read more

SHUK: Ji-Won has turned a page to A New and ‘Nother You. But can she still juggle the job, the skank, the manhoe, and the Fates, and come out a winner in the end? Stay tuned! Trotwood: I believe that she can because not only is she able to recognize the real allies she could have had before, she is now her own best friend and this best friend is bringing the receipts for every debt owed her. EPISODE 4 We are back on the bridge near Cheonggyecheon Time Tour Market as strangers cheer them on. I feel secondhand embarrassment for Ji-won. Cute Chef is shocked he did it, I think. (me, too. He has b ..read more

SHUK: Character development is key to keeping me engrossed into a story, and Ji-won has it in spades. From her original life of meek doormatism, she is now actively trying to break out of that past and forge a new future for herself.  Trotwood: I like being able to see her calculate and re-calculate but not so fast that it's unrealistic. I know some people might be impatient with her because we want her to get revenging faster, but we have to remember that she between 37-41 (can't remember the exact age) in her mind. She is living with over twenty years of trauma from being friends with S ..read more
