FRIDAY NIGHT DRAMA: I Need Romance 3
For those of you who prefer to watch your dramas in a one-shot marathon, as opposed to enduring the sometimes torturous weekly wait just to find out what happens next, I have good ‘news for you! This week brought us the final episodes of yet another recently aired drama, I Need Romance 3. Woo-hoo! You can now officially begin your marathon!
HALLYU ZOMBIE DRAMA REVIEW: Bride of the Century Episodes 3-4 (2/2)
Zombie: Two episodes… Two kisses… So many feels I spent the entire time watching Bride of the Century this week with a ridiculously giant grin plastered all over my face! I can’t help it! I love this drama!
Shai: So much happened this week, I don’t know where to start.

HALLYU ZOMBIE DRAMA REVIEW: Bride of the Century Episodes 3-4 (1/2)
This show is starting to become extremely compelling. The mystery and the unexpected comedy balance everything to make a great show. And the kissing… we can’t forget the kissing! Continue reading “HALLYU ZOMBIE DRAMA REVIEW: Bride of the Century Episodes 3-4 (1/2)”
HALLYU ZOMBIE DRAMA REVIEW: Emergency Couple Episodes 10-11 (4/4)
Karen: I can’t wait to talk about the ROMANCE ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~
Zombie: Oh I KNOW!!! I decided, this week, that I wasn’t going to care about logic or reason any more, especially not when it comes to Chang Min. He’s completely stolen my feels and I’m just going to blindly cheer for him for the rest of the show. I don’t even care if nothing makes sense ever again. I think he’s just too… I’m not really sure what he is, actually… cute, funny, clueless, hopeless… He’s so carried away by his feelings and he doesn’t really understand them himself. All he knows is that he hates seeing Jin Hee falling for Dr. Gook and he’s taking steps to ensure she doesn’t fall any farther than she already has. Whether he’s doing that the right way or not doesn’t really bother me at this point. Every time he appeared on-screen this week, my heart did a little backflip so I’m hooked… (I’m so lame)

TUNE OF THE WEEK: 2NE1 “Come Back Home”
I’m just going to come right out and say this, I have never been a fan of girl groups or female solo artists… Ever. So when I sit down to tell the world that the song they need to have playing on “repeat” right now is 2NE1’s “Come Back Home,” you know it’s got to be good.

HALLYU ZOMBIE DRAMA REVIEW: Emergency Couple Episodes 10-11 (3/4)
Karen and Zombie Mamma have covered a lot of this week’s episodes! Chang Min is starting to grow on me too as he becomes less pompous and runs with his jealousy/confusion thing. He has decided to go all in and just follow the course where ever it take him. I admire that. The more he shows that he still cares, the better the chances he will have with Jin Hee in the end.
