PERSONAL THOUGHTS 04/30/26: I'm currently watching "The Scarecrow", a period piece about serial murders in the late '80's, where the present-day former detective is drawn back into the case by a prisoner (who is thought to be the real culprit). We'll find out if there are twists or not. It's intriguing so far. It's not only about serial murders, but there is a backstory or secondary story between the detective and the Prosecutor. This prosecutor first appears villainous but as the story unfolds, we get to familiarize what he's about. Full review upon finishing. Planning to watch "If Wishes Could Kill" and "Cabbage Your Life". I'll watch the first episode or the first two episodes of a drama that appears interesting, but if it's not what I was hoping for or expecting - I would usually discontinue or quit and look for something else. There's been a few of them so far - has the quality been going down. Before (a few years back), it's been one good one after another. 04/09/26: Siren's Kiss What a drama - very stylish, noir-ish and kept me wondering or hooked. It's also a dark romantic disguised as a crime thriller - kind of like a soap opera meets a thriller. My Top Ten is usually reserved for slice-of-life or relatable dramas, but every once in awhile - there is a thriller worthy of my Top Ten. This could be it, although I don't know where. Certainly a Top Favorite as a runner-up. There was just enough twists so as not to over do it. There is a fine line of over-doing things or doing too much. There are some thrillers like that unfortunately. The story revolves around insurance frauds / scams, and Artwork. There are two villains in this, and one pseudo-villain. We are sort of led to believe that the pseudo-identity of Park Jun Beom was the main villain. He had the eerie aura or creepiness about him, in the end - we find out he was just an obsessed creep who stole his friend's identity (and literal face). He was a danger, but not villainous enough. In the end, we find out that the quiet, friend Do Eun-Hyuk was the main culprit in the murders. It's always the quiet ones that are the real psychopaths huh? The other main villain is the CEO Kim, guilty of forging and auctioning fakes and stealing the originals. The short, fat lady was responsible for our main protagonist Han Seul-Ah's (originally targeted as the prime suspect) painter father's demise, using the murderer friend as a tool to get her way. Finally, a villain-ess who's villainy resembles the way she looks haha. Often - the prettier the lady, the more psychopathic they are. Well, there isn't any other dramas to watch so it'll be awhile (other than "Cabbage Your Life"). I'll have to focus on films for now. 03/30/26: I'm currently in the middle of "Siren's Kiss" (or, just "Siren" in a direct translation - I suspect the addition of "Kiss" is not to confuse from other lame-ass shows with the same title). So far, it is mesmerizing. It has the slow-paced, noir-ish style that I enjoy (or a dark romantic disguised as a crime thriller). It isn't heavy on intensity, action or suspense, but it certainly leaves you guessing or wondering. A complete review once finished. 03/11/26: There's been a lull in what to watch, so I began watching some J-Dramas. But "Cabbage Your Life" (or what I would like to call, "Paechoo Saenghwal" haha) is a slice-of-life rom-com or dramedy that is rare. This is something we can watch together. Other than that, the horror film "Whispering Waters" is on the list. Wasn't there a previous drama about a lawyer possessed by ghost clients or helping ghost clients? Aptly titled, "Oh My Ghost Clients". I think you have to have an open mind about these things, because plot or storylines are recycled as a new drama with their own twist or quirkiness. I felt "Face Me" was a suspenseful enough drama to enjoy. Not going to review it in detail, but highlighting plastic surgery as a social commentary was something I felt was long overdue. It's an issue in today's society where there is an obsession with looks and physical appearances. If you "Do Not Look The Part", that person's self-esteem goes down the drain and ends up relying on plastic surgery to fix things or to "Fit In". Everything's a self-esteem issue. Society at large might frown upon and discriminate against you because of who you are or the way you look, but that should make you even more bolder to not give a hoot and do things your way. Even better, to become even more empowered or defiant. I learned this the hard way myself. Archived Entries |
