Drama watching

Perfect 10 Liners

Ok, listen, there is nothing new or original about this drama, but I still love it so much. It’s just such a lovely big piece of fluff I can count on to cheer me up each Sunday. For me Force and Book are of course the main draw. And they don’t disappoint here – they’re gorgeous, sexy and sweet. But I am surprised how much I like Marc and Poon in this drama. They are adorable together.


My Damn Business

The last episode aired yesterday, and I have only one complaint about this drama – it was too short. I loved it so much, they managed to tell a simple and lovely getting together story in such a short time. The romance was great and believable, chemistry between the actors was scorching, the kisses were hot and long, and deep. And since this little drama was popular, I hope that they will make another one with the same actors. And hopefully it will be a little bit longer.

And now, after watching all of it, I’ll repeat that I absolutely recommend this drama if you want to watch something short, sweet, and sexy.

A bit more with spoilers and four kissing pics here.

Woo Jin is a bit of a pushy jerk in the beginning, that’s true. But as soon as Su An tells him that this kind of behavior is making him uncomfortable, Woo Jin apologizes and never does anything like that again. He even takes the blame for Su An’s mistake, and then never tells him about it. Su And finds out about it from another employee Hwang. And I like Hwang, too, so much, despite very short amount of time he had in the drama. But he’s a cutie, and he’s so funny. He always manages to catch Su An and Woo Jin in a position that looks compromising even when there was still nothing between them. And then he’s so understanding about it, heh... I love outsider POV fics, and I want a fic from his POV so much. Maybe I’ll write one.

And usually I’m not really fond of one of kdramas’ favorite trope – a connection from the past, where we find out that one half of the couple was infatuated with the other half for a long time already. But I liked it here, since only Woo Jin remembers it, and for Su An he was just another customer Su An has no recollection of. And it makes Woo Jin’s pushy behavior in the beginning a bit more understandable, since it must have been surreal for him to have a cute barista he was crushing on a few years ago suddenly walk into his office.

Also they totally did more than just kissing in the office in the last scene. Nobody will convince otherwise. Maybe I’ll write this fic, too. 😊

The Fiery Priest 2 episodes 3-4

I do enjoy the drama, it makes me laugh, and that’s something I need these days. But I feel like they got worse at mixing angst and comedy (despite having almost the same creating team as the 1st season), and it doesn’t work here as well as in the previous season. For now it feels like there are two different parts (slapstick comedy and a dark crime drama) that don’t really mesh together. And the villain is gorgeous like I’ve said, but I’m getting a bit bored with him already. I just prefer villains to have at least a little bit of nuance. Kim Hong Sik is just evil because he’s evil.

I mean all of it could still change, only four episodes aired for now. And good things outweigh those not so good for me for now – Kim Nam Gil being beautiful and amazing, fantastic fighting scenes, and funny secondary characters. And no romance. And that won’t change for sure since the male lead is a Catholic priest. 😊
