#MoonRiver #kdrama (the new one with #KangTaeOh and @KimSeJeong) is unexpectedly delightful. Fantastic roles for both these actors. I'm a medium sageuk fan, & especially love the ones where something crazy goes down. And here we are!

I swear the dilute calicos and dilute torties have something extra going on.
Mine isn't dilute, but is a tortie with white (tuxedo tortie, with flame points, prob has Siamese ancestor). Her something extra is like high test extra. She is 16 and kicks my ass on the regular. BEST CAT!

OK, and also watching tons and tons of #kdrama and learning Korean because one has to keep on keeping on (pic: Lee Je Hoon in Taxi Driver; Lee Jae Wook in Alchemy of Souls)

#Kdrama #TheArtOfNegotiation is terrific. Came here for #LeeJeHoon (with fancy white hair), but gosh #KimDaeMyung is delightful as a sweetie-pie attorney!

SUCH a common trope! Makes me think of My Sweet Mobster, Chocolate, The King's Affection. But really...it's everywhere!

I get this! For me, I think it was maybe the 5th Kdrama I ever watched? And I'm a huge paranormal/mystical/SF fan so it just hit a lot of notes for me. I enjoyed my recent rewatch--and now I feel done with it (except Jangmi, I will never be done with Jangmi).

#dramaJoyChallenge Day 7: Cute animal.
Resisting the urge to nominate Woo Do Hwon and Lee Sang Yi in #Bloodhounds haha, I will stay true to the spirit of the thing and nominate.....MAXIMUS in #TheKingEternalMonarch. Altho "cute" is probably not the right word.

I have just finished #MyYouth and have no idea how I'm going to transition to a new drama. To be fair, I've got #LastSummer already slightly underway. Also started #MoonInTheDay a little while ago but it didn't hook me. I think I need a paranormal or sageuk before really diving into Last Summer.

Kim Young Dae is just....I cannot even with that guy. I am NOT going start Dear X until it's all dropped because....Kim Young Dae. I am still not recovered from the tuxedo reveal scene in No Gain No Love. Not sorry, either.

I'm going with #TheMidnightStudio (ghosts! possession! #JooWon! #YooInSoo!) and also #HeadOverHeels (more ghosts! more possession! shamans! #ChoYiHyun! #ChooYoungWoo! #KimMiKyung!). Also seconding #SellYourHauntedHouse that has already been mentioned.

Folks in #Kdrama FB group complaining #MyYouth was slow & boring. Then heard @ajpine.bsky.social & @megjoknows.bsky.social say how wonderful & soothing it is. So I started it last night. As usual, I am with Amy & Megan on this. Tho I keep waiting for #SongJoongKi to pop into full #VIncenzo.

Finished #IfYouWishUponMe #kdrama last night. Glad I saw it, altho had some sagginess in later eps. The end was precious tho. All the feels.
Now rewatching #TheKingEternalMonarch cuz sometimes you just need a comfort rewatch. It truly has the best OST of all the OSTs, IMHO.

Amherst MA understood the assignment! #NoKings Photos can't capture the scale, spreading out across the common of this small New England town. Will post turnout numbers when I learn them.

I'm gonna say #GenieMakeAWish is in the same bonkers dept. as #TaleOfTheNineTailed. Kinda less bonkers, really. My verdict: yup, a hot mess, but I liked it! My #Kdrama life is funny like that. I'm all in for #KimWooBin with long hair, too.

Auntie's Halloween-adjacent #Kdrama themes Day 3: Grim Reaper. I know, I know, always & forever #LeeDongWook in #Goblin, but I want to go beyond that. I offer you: #KimHeeSeon as Koo Ryeon in #Tomorrow. Because she is so badass and everything else. This is a fave drama for me.

Auntie's Halloween-adjacent #kdrama themes day 2: Exorcist. I pick #JangNaRa as Hong Ji A in #SellYourHauntedHouse. This drama is an excellent watch for spooky season! I love her, and she nails it. Dram gets bonus points for super gnarly ghost.

OK I take it back: I have un-dropped #GenieMakeAWish #kdrama. Ep 1 is a hot mess but now I'm well into Ep 5 & here to say it's adorable. #KimWooBin brings it, #BaeSuzy rocks the house, #KoKyuPil I always love him, & my dear #KimMiKyung every damn time. Stupid subtitles tho.

I'm starting a Halloween-adjacent #kdrama list. Feel free to chime in! Today is Day 1, topic is ZOMBIES. I propose: #AllOfUsAreDead. For so many reasons but mostly for #YooInSoo because he is one of my fave shining stars.
