REVIEW: Save Me

Still recovering from this whirlwind, but I don’t think I have a single bad thing to say about it. It’s worth every minute of your time. Props to the showrunners for doing such a ballsy plot and taking it as far as they could.

REVIEW: Fighter of the Destiny [C-drama]

Its only saving grace is that it has very compelling and fleshed out supporting characters to prop up the very bland and boring leads.

REVIEW: My Sassy Girl

With a corruption subplot that cheapens the story rather than enhancing it and a lightweight romance, this might be worth a skip.

Streaming Recommends – C-Drama

I created this list of incredibly binge-worthy C-drama shows currently available on Netflix! This group represents my recommendations of shows that I’ve personally seen. Happy Subtitles, and stay safe out there!

REVIEW: Because This Is My First Life

This show seems straightforward on paper. But it took some narrative chances, and I think they paid off.
