THE NIGHT OWL

GENRES: Historical, Drama

SUMMARY: An adept, blind acupuncturist must balance his family’s livelihood, the health of the royal family, and his personal secret.

THIS MOVIE HAS EVERYTHING: Poison, needles, palace politics, Ming vs Qing, heirs to the throne, night watches, workplace courtships, royal tyrants, magnifying glasses, and lots of medicine.

HOT TAKE: I don't really have any complaints about this one. It's a good what-if historical take on real palace tragedies, it uses cinematic light and day to its advantage, and the stakes are worthy of an edge of your seat position!

If You Wish Upon Me

People have a right to a second chance, a rebirth of sorts. . .

People have a right to closure before the final goodbye. . .

This series is about those two things. Some get a second chance and other the final closure. It is heart felt and warm. The power of empathy is a magical thing. . .

I liked the series. It made me smile, it made me cry. Some things felt unrealistic but we forgive them as an audience captivated by the development of the characters that struggle to break from the darkness in their hearts and lives. . . Goodness outlives the darkness when people are surrounded by a caring support group, those that love you and you love back.

I really liked the story.

My Top Male Characters of 2023

[binging-asian-dramas]

Bo Rah! Deborah. 7

Story: 8

Acting: 10

Chemistry: 10

Comparable to: A Business Proposal (kdrama); Touch Your Heart (kdrama); Yumi’s Cells (kdrama)

So it’s your typical cliché classic romcom with a certain flair to it with a stellar cast. Unfortunately, it does suffer like most dramas do nowadays. It starts out excellent and starts to decline towards the end. I suppose the writers wanted to draw it out more creating more unnecessary angst. Granted I do love angst to my dramas, but when it is inserted towards the end, especially the last two episodes (everything seemed way too bloated in the last one) I tend to get grumpy. Nevertheless the romcom still feels classic, it just depends on how you watch it.

Money Heist: Korea – Joint Economic Area (Part II)

TV Shows/Dramas watched in 2022

Money Heist: Korea – Joint Economic Area (Part II, 2022, South Korea)

Director: Kim Hong Sun

Writers: Ryu Yong Jae, Kim Hwan Chae & Choe Sung Jun

Mini-review:

I feel like I was one of the few people that really enjoyed Part I and actually preferred it to the original. I hated the writing in the original show (I am a native Spanish speaker) and couldn't make it past the first few episodes, even though I found the story interesting. Now, thanks to this Korean remake, at least I can see how said story develops. Just like in the first part, this is a really fun and entertaining thriller with great acting, even if it requires you to suspend your disbelief a lot of the time. I'm really glad the writers wrapped up pretty much every plot thread, cause it makes the show a very satisfying watch. Like I said, the cast is amazing, but special kudos go to Park Hae Soo, who's clearly one of the best actors in the world.

Under the Queen's Umbrella

This is a beautiful series. I smiled, laughed and cried. This is the story of a mother who loves her children and will fight to the teeth to protect them. As a mother myself, I could understand her feelings and her actions. Queen Im Hwa Ryeong is an intelligent woman, street smart, and she has learned to play the politics game to protect her five sons. He eldest, the Crown Prince and his own wife, little boy and his youngest on the way are her pride and joy. He is the model child everyone would want to have. She worries about his health.

When the king decides to look for a substitute for the Crown Prince's assistant, the Queen will have to prepare her other four carefree sons so they can show they are just as worthy as their other half-brothers. But as she tries to do so without alarming them, she runs around inside and outside the palace looking for them.

Her second son, Grand Prince Seong Nam, was taken away from her when he was born. She was able to bring him home after years of living outside like a commoner. He feels like an outsider inside the palace and likes to train outside, but he loves his brothers, and cherishes his relationship with his older brother.

Grand Prince Muan is a young man in love with a woman of low birth. His mother is constantly getting him out of her home and bring him back to the palace.

Grand Prince Kye Seong is a quiet young man who brings peace to his mother but carries a secret that could kill him.

Grand Prince Il Young is in his early teens and too young to care about politics.

As the political intrigues unravel, we see her relationship with her sons strengthen. This a woman who will protect, not only her children, but the king's other sons. . . She is strong and flexible, accepting and a problem solver.

I liked her relationship with her sons. How she interacts with each and gives them the support they need while also giving them wings. I also like her relationship with the King. Out of all his wives, the audience can see a special bond between them. He values her opinion and respects her. She respects him, although there are things she will always keep away from him in order to protect her sons. She is indeed her son's secret keeper and their support.

I really love what the title symbolizes. The umbrella she puts over her boys' heads when it rains and what it all means.

I truly love this story!
