What I'm watching

Summer Strike 1-5: I went into Summer Strike to compare it with Welcome to Samdal-ri, and found it so contrasting it borders on symmetry. Unlike Samdal, Yeo-reum, our heroine, is so anonymous that her mother's death feels like it never happened, this catastrophe barely puncturing the routine of her corporate grind. And Yeo-reum is a stranger to Andok, the sleepy seaside town she retires to as she tries to cherish time in her life again. There's fun perspective switching in the early episodes. Yeo-reum wanders through Andok with hazy whimsy, blossoms in the air, the sea; but the townsfolk are grounded in very specific interiors as they discuss and negotiate her place in their town. Already, without her even knowing, they've fitted her into the politics of their small world. Yeo-reum runs away to Andok to get her time back and she's very lucky that she can do that, because others are desperate to leave for Seoul. The synergy between Seoul and Andok is very real, and more nuanced than anything WTS tried to pull. Success isn't guaranteed in Seoul, peace isn't guaranteed in Andok, & happiness isn't guaranteed in either. Bom, the high-schooler she meets, needs an escape - her poverty and dysfunctional family feel magnified by Andok's smallness and the intense judgement of its people. Bom and Yeo-reum's sisterhood is so touching, and it wouldn't happen if Yeo-reum wasn't an outsider, wasn't presenting a vision of an adulthood not defined by desperation. I love them so much 🥹 The direction and performances are brilliant, especially Shin Eun-soo (Bom) and Park Ye-young (Ji-young).

No Gain No Love 1-4: Cannot believe how fun this show is. It hits its emotional beats with surprising effectiveness - I was seriously moved by the wedding, where Hae-young's foster siblings visit (and mourn) her mom, who can't remember them. And I vibe with its humour so much its almost embarrassing. Hae-young and her sisters are the perfect trio. People were lamenting pairing The Shin Min-ah with Kim Young-dae (very valid), & I was sure I'd enjoy the secondary couple more (with my fav Lee Sang-yi) - but that has not been the case! Kim Young-dae has outgrown the stiltedness that plagues these pretty boy actors, and his chemistry with Shin Min-ah is palpable. It helps that the show isn't afraid of sex and Hae-young is an assertive adult woman who knows exactly what she wants. NGNL isnt deep but its very honest and true to itself. I'd forgotten that you could write a romcom with characters that felt "real".

Perfect Family 1-6: My Sky Castle parents are back!! Kim Byung-chul & Yoon Se-ah have the most striking, photographable faces, which makes them the perfect pair for a gorgeously directed slow-burn thriller about two parents nestled in secrets, a mystery to their increasingly paranoid daughter. It's very slow moving so far, building up tension + expectations - I'm hoping what it's building up to is worth it. But I'm enjoying the slow-burn so far.

Beauty and Mr Romantic 1-40:

loll but in all seriousness, I've enjoyed my (re)discovery of charming Im Soo-hyang (which led me to check out My ID, one of the best things I've watched this year); I've enjoyed chatting abt it w/ the lovely people on Dramabeans, I've enjoyed the weekend check-in on this show's insanity. So it's not like I'm not having fun, but this show really, really, really doesn't want to be liked. I'm sure writer-nim is doing this on purpose - psychos outnumber sensible characters 6:1, and the writing goes out of its way to be as mean and low as possible. I never expected much from it, but there was a point where it was cute, and now it just seems determined to sink itself on its own aimless cynicism.

Beauty and Mr. Romantic (K-Drama): Episodes 33 & 34 Review

Positives

In episodes 33 and 34 of Beauty and Mr. Romantic, tensions are at an all-time high. On one hand, Soo-yeon is about to get divorced, and Pil-seung is about to lose his job as director at GOGO Entertainment. Mi-ja, on the other hand, manipulates Ji-young into dating Jin-dan in order to repay her debt. These plot twists will definitely keep you on the edge of your seat.

The kdrama has a reputation for presenting outrageous situations, which works well for the show and, ultimately, keeps us coming back for more. In some ways this kdrama is similar to a toxic relationship; the extreme highs and lows act as a drug, keeping you engaged.

Negatives

While the episodes keep you hooked, they can also be frustrating. The kdrama currently has nothing pleasant going on, which is certainly upsetting to watch. We can only hope that the resolution is worth going through these unpleasant plot twists.

Beauty and Mr. Romantic Episodes 33 & 34: Our Verdict

Overall, episodes 33 and 34 of our favorite K- drama Beauty and Mr. Romantic are entertaining, albeit somewhat unpleasant. The kdrama has also teased some fascinating developments during its credits, so it will be interesting to see where the show goes from here.

Started Beauty and Mr Romantic. Realized it looked off and when I checked again, it's a 50 ep drama. So I am peacing out. I like Im Soo Hyang but I do not have the energy for a 50 ep drama.

Honestly, I'm really excited for Season 3 of Bridgerton for so many reasons, but a big one for me is the representation of bigger/plus-sized girls. Bridgerton is such a massive show with millions of people watching from across the world and I can't wait for people to see a bigger/plus-sized girl being the romantic lead and finding love. (correct me if I'm wrong but) I feel like this is the first time we'll see it so mainstream and it's not gonna be a plot point or something that must be mentioned/noted (not that I hate it when it is but it's annoying when referenced almost every time). Ofc we've seen movies where a "hot" guy falls in love with a plus-sized girl, but he's always the only one. In season 3, we will not only see Penelope and Colin fall in love but we'll see Penelope garner the attention of other gentlemen and be wanted by more than just Colin. Another thing I've seen with the guy who falls in love is he'll say something along the lines of he fell in love with her as a person and not what's on the outside, whereas, with Colin, he very much is attracted to Pen's mind and body (and for haters who say he isn't; read RMB there's PLENTY proof he is). In cases where a plus-sized girl did fall in love with a guy and get a HEA, it seemed surface level or that there should've been more to it, but I definitely think Polin will be different (cause it's Bridgerton ofc it's gonna be deep and we'll get all the details). All in all it's gonna be such a nice refresher to see Penelope getting multiple suitors, being seen as beautiful, and seeing her and Colin's relationship bloom and have such a beautiful love story being told; all the while nothing will need to be said about Penelope's body being different or seen traditionally as less beautiful than any other lady in the ton because she is just as beautiful. I'm so grateful for the representation that we will see in season 3 and can't wait

There are a bajillion Japanese BLs since they just went an pioneered the whole damn genre. I definitely could not fit everything in this poll so I went with my personal favorites. If your choice isn’t here, let me know what it is!

Portrait of Friedrich Lieder the Younger by Friedrich Johan Gottlieb Lieder, 1834 (Museum of Fine Arts, Budapest)

The stock, lined and stiffened at the sides with whalebone or pig's bristles and arched from the cheeks, is dated as early as 1818. It is best known, however, as the neckpiece of fashionable men from c.1830–c.1840.

Stiffeners of buckram and steel springs were also used, as noted by C. Willett Cunnington and Phillis Cunnington in Handbook of English Costume in the 19th Century.

Beauty and Mr. Romantic (K-drama): Episodes 31 & 32 Review

Positives

The k-Drama has always excelled at keeping viewers guessing with jaw-dropping plot twists, and episodes 31 & 32 of Beauty and Mr. Romantic were no exception. The show has handled Pil-seung and his family’s discovery of his biological mother in the most dramatic way possible, which is largely what makes the show so entertaining.

Ji-Young’s grandmother appears and entertains us in Beauty and Mr. Romantic episodes 31 and 32, adding to the humor. Her jabs at Mi-Ja are particularly amusing because she does what viewers want to do to her.

Negatives

While episodes 31 and 32 of Beauty and Mr. Romantic contain numerous amusing, entertaining, and dramatic moments, they also have flaws. What makes the K-Drama so addictive is also what makes it seem ridiculous at times: drama.

Beauty and Mr. Romantic has a tendency to overdo its drama to the point of melodrama, which can be annoying. Many viewers have complained about the physical violence on the show, which is a valid criticism. In terms of drama, the K-Drama occasionally loses its footing and deviates into unpleasant territory.

Beauty & Mr. Romantic: Our Verdict

Overall, episodes 31 and 32 of Beauty and Mr. Romantic provided an entertaining ride with plenty of amusing and dramatic moments. However, the show tends to overdo drama to increase its entertainment value. However, this does not detract from the show’s appeal, as it continues to entertain us week after week.
