The End.

Once upon a time, I was a storyteller. It was my favorite thing. Once upon a time, I was a voracious reader. Once upon a time, I was wanted to be a writer. It’s actually part of the reason why I loved Kdramas so much. Kdramas were like romance novels come to life. There was a beginning, a middle, an end. We met, we fell in love, we broke up, we had our happily ever after, we moved on to the next show. I loved watching a show and then picking it apart, taking up the hood, and peeking around to see how all the parts worked together from a story, a character… from a writer’s point of view.

Top 50(ish) Songs of 2021

I thought I was going to come in seriously under this year, but, as always, as I gathered the songs of the year, I ended up with way more than my allotted 50 songs. I was trying to reduce it further, but then… realized that this will be the last Thursday Musical post, my last top 50 songs of the year, and figured, fuck it. I’m going to leave all the ones I want in here because I’m the boss and I’m allowed to do that. I’m not sure what my choices said about the type of year that I had, but I think that this one came through with a lot more…mellow angsty songs. It also has a lot of fun new find ..read more

Favorite BL Couples: A Rebuttal by Junior McFeeley

Hey! It’s me again! I’m gonna be honest, I had a few complaints with Stephanie’s list of favorite BL couples, and I was asked to write a rebuttal. So here I am. Even though I haven’t seen quite a few of the shows, from what I did know, I actually liked most of the picks! Some I didn’t care for as much, but they make sense for Stephanie. Some I just flat out dislike, which is why I’m here. So for the first couple, there’s MingKit from 2moons2, which is obviously the superior couple in the 2moons franchise from the superior season in the 2moons franchise. The 2moons franchise has never been my ..read more

Happiness: A Review

Funny story, I used to be terrified of zombies. I couldn’t even watch commercials for whatever the newest and goriest zombies movie was coming to a theater near you. The idea horrified me. Fast forward ten years and one of the highlights of my drama-watching year? The tvN horror drama, Happiness. (Spoilers Ahead) I was made aware of the series a few weeks ago, just a blip on my radar of “Oh, that sounds good, I should put it on the list.” Not only did I not put it on the list, but I also promptly forgot about the series. It wasn’t until just the other week when I was starting to do research f ..read more

The Farewell Tour: Highlights and Lowlights 2020-2021

And so we’ve reached the end of the series! Looking at the list, I disliked a LOT of shows in 2020 and I don’t know if was the type of shows I was watching, the types of shows that were being produced, or me. You know, 2020 was a weird year and I very well may have been in NO MOOD. I will say though, not only did I like some shows, some of them became instant favorites. Making me laugh, cry, and sometimes, really good shows? Made me flap my arms in excitement. What more can you ask for? 2020 Best 2gether / Still 2gether Tine is a very handsome student and cheerleader in college, while Sarawat ..read more

Musical Monday: I Can’t Decide

Again, I may be stresssing too much about who should be the LAST artist for Musical Monday. It’s a big decision, right? The Musical Monday posts have been around for almost as long as the site has been (both versions of the site). This will be the I see song when I recollect and look back on the site, scrolling back to the old feeds. It should be something I love, something that is going to withstand the test of time, right? Well, putting that sort of pressure on myself is a great way to make sure I don’t make a decision at all. So, I decided to go with it. This final Musical Monday will feat ..read more

Throwback (Musical) Thursday: Surprise Finds

Don’t you love it when you bump into one of those surprise finds? A song or a group you didn’t know or had heard of but never really paid attention to? Then all of a sudden there it is, then there it is again, and then one more time? You then wonder why you never paid attention before? Were they always this good or was it just this song or release? Should I now go and binge everything they’ve ever done? Or just keep going? Recently, for me, that was CIX. Funny story about CIX. I hadn’t really heard of them before, but then, right before the pandemic, it was announced that they were coming to ..read more

And this is where life got real crazy. I moved to Colorado, hired onto an amazing job which, unfortunately, came with a huge amount of overtime. Great for the pocketbook and experience, but not great for the drama watching time. But looking back, I do like where the variety took me from different countries to genres. I have a mystery time travel from Japan, Korean zombies, a great high school noir, and some good old fashioned romances both of the chaebol and underdog variety. This is also sees the start of our dear friend Alix’s descent into BL and the rise of our BL and Bubbles weekend watch ..read more

Khottie of the Week: Nu’est
Kchat Jjigae
by Stephanie

I thought long and hard who should be our last Khottie. Should I revisit the first-ever Khottie? Should I do a group? Should I do a theme post? Or a collection of the ones I personally love? This is the last one ever and it seemed like an overly important choice. I decided to go with the group Nu’est. It’s appropriate. I realized mid-pandemic that none of the members had ever been individually featured and MEANT to go back to them, but never did. That seems like an error that I need to adjust before we close down shop. So, are you ready? I present Nu’est. All of them. Nu’est I actually came t ..read more
