Hallyu Zombie Drama Review: Bride of the Century Episodes 9-10 (2/2)

Ep10-1.png

Shai: This week was rather eventful with the truth coming out about the curse and all. What did you think about that?
Tanya: I am happy it actually ended up being a test, but that makes you think of the level of crazy that these women have to be every time the first wife has actually died. That means there is so much underlying evil in the people surrounding that family that it is pretty astounding. I am appreciative that Kang Ju came back around, but how is Doo Rim going to tell him the truth?

TUNE OF THE WEEK: Boyfriend “My Avatar” & Super Junior M “Swing”

BFAvatar-1SUJUM-1I’ve taken over ZombieMamma this week and that includes the Tune of the Week. However since it’s not my site, and I like to be a rebel, I’m breaking the rules…. I am bringing you two tunes  because I really could not pick just one. Also, while both groups are essentially Korean, these singles are not. Boyfriend is extremely active in Japan and “My Avatar” is their newest Japanese single. Super Junior is a large group based in Korea, but that little ‘M’ attached to the end means it is their Mandarin subgroup, and thus “Swing” was released in China.

Hallyu Zombie Drama Review: Bride of the Century Episodes 9-10 (1/2)

Doo Rim and Kang Ju were in the middle of the worst break up at the beginning of this week’s episodes. Doo Rim is still determined to be with Kang Ju, but he doesn’t want to lose her and resists at every turn. Doo Rim ends up going to Yi Kyung’s mother, Ma Jae Ran, asking that if she can change Kang Ju’s mind about marriage can she be the one to actually stay with Kang Ju. The deal is struck as both sides agree. Continue reading “Hallyu Zombie Drama Review: Bride of the Century Episodes 9-10 (1/2)”

FRIDAY NIGHT DRAMA: Personal Taste

Personal TasteHello! This is Karen, filling in for Zombie Mamma this week with a new Friday Night Drama: Personal Taste. If you have seen dramas where the main female lead gets mistaken for a man or has to pretend to be a man without actually switching bodies, then you might find the drama, Personal Taste, to be a refreshing perspective on mistaken identity.  While the main male actor, Lee Min Ho, who plays Jeon Jin Ho, does not transform into a woman, he is mistaken by a tomboy, main female lead, Son Ye Jin, who plays Park Kae In, to be a gay man. With a business agenda in mind, Jeon Jin Ho does not deny being gay in order to become Park Kae In’s roommate in her beautiful, historical hanok (a traditional Korean home), called Sanggojae. Based on Lee Se In’s 2007 novel of the same name, Personal Taste is a light and fun drama that is sure to charm its audience. Continue reading “FRIDAY NIGHT DRAMA: Personal Taste”

Hallyu Zombie Drama Review: Emergency Couple Episodes 16-17 (3/3)

Emergency Couple interns pay respects to Oh Tae Suk.jpg

Tanya: The big hitter this week was the passing of Chang Min’s father, of course. What do you think about how he and his mother handled all of that? I was actually impressed with his mom for not attacking Jin Hee and showing some sort of respect when she and her mother came to the wake.

Karen: I think Chang Min’s family was put in a tough situation. I’m surprised at how well they tried to cope with the terrible news. One thing that I couldn’t understand was why they kept pushing Oh Jin Hee out of their lives at this point. She offered them support, but they didn’t seem to appreciate that because of their past relationships.

HALLYU ZOMBIE DRAMA REVIEW: Emergency Couple Episodes 16-17 (1/4)

Everyone awaits the news of Oh Tae Suk's surgery

If this week’s Emergency Couple episodes didn’t tug the audience’s heartstrings, then I don’t know what will. With a one episode extension announced this week, four episodes to go, our main characters should have enough time to build a nice happy ending from here onwards.

 

Those who did not see this week’s episodes yet might not want to read on since there will be spoilers. Continue reading “HALLYU ZOMBIE DRAMA REVIEW: Emergency Couple Episodes 16-17 (1/4)”
