It’s Friday I’m in Love…
Added 2022-05-13 15:05:47 +0000 UTCIt’s my favorite song by The Cure and heck one of my favorite songs ever…
What is everyone watching? I’m starting The Sound of Magic and carrying on with My Mister. But I had to pause my life to inhale all available episodes of KinnPorsche—a Thai BL recommended by Alison which is so far chef’s kiss perfection.
Sound off in comments.

2022-05-18 19:48:35 +0000 UTCHey, has anyone seen the K-drama version of Fated to Love You? I just started it and so far it is over the top campy… does it settle down?

2022-05-18 19:39:33 +0000 UTCI am finding Shooting Stars surprisingly charming in these most recent episodes. I just finished the C drama Falling into your Smile. I am still loving Liberation Notes.

2022-05-15 17:51:27 +0000 UTCTouch Your Heart is SO good. I didn’t think much of it the first time but rewatched it recently and liked it much better. Lee Dong Wook is really good and the FL, who I didn’t care for initially, is a wonderful foil for him. Great chemistry.

2022-05-14 02:54:48 +0000 UTCThe Crowned Clown is probably my favorite sageuk. It wormed itself into my heart last year, and never left. Just a gorgeous show all around.

2022-05-13 22:11:11 +0000 UTCSlowly making my way through Mad Dog (from 2017). Really enjoying the goofy From Now On, Showtime! It’s been hard waiting for the episodes to drop on Viki. But don’t add my name to the Sound of Magic viewers’ list; I made it through one episode and bailed. Just couldn’t get into it. Still love JCW though. 💖

2022-05-13 22:09:17 +0000 UTCWatched all of Sound of Magic and really liked it. Still working my way through Touch Your Heart. Slow and steady wins the race, I guess :)

2022-05-13 19:56:33 +0000 UTCHave you tried Mystic Popup Bar? It's got a similar format to Tomorrow. It's, intentionally, more hokey but self-contained story per episode while also revealing the main characters' past lives. So curious if anyone else thinks Tomorrow is headed toward the same conclusion...

2022-05-13 17:50:21 +0000 UTCHHahahaha I’m so scared to start -Lia

2022-05-13 17:39:52 +0000 UTCOk I need your rec for next one after KP because of reasons …

2022-05-13 17:39:29 +0000 UTCI am slowly working my way through K2. I usually love action, but I'm pretty lukewarm about this one. I have many thoughts about it, but I'll reserve judgement until I get to the end. My primary issue is with the FL, so I'm curious to hear what you think, if you make it to the end :P

2022-05-13 17:36:39 +0000 UTCLast week I finished up Descendants, which I felt just so-so about. I’m also half way through The King, and while the world building is cool, I’m not sure if I’m as invested as I should be at this point. I plan to finish it though. Planning to start The Sound of Magic this weekend, and I’ve also promised my husband that I’ll watch The K2. Generally it looks more action oriented than I’d go for, so thank goodness for JCW. If the clips on IG are to be believed, he’ll be plenty motivating. 😂 I’ve also been wanting to start another BL (I’ve done Color Rush, Semantic Error, and Cherry Blossoms). I like that they tend to be shorter and fit in the gaps between my other shows. Does anyone have one they’d recommend?

2022-05-13 17:30:02 +0000 UTCRight now I am just rewatching my favorite BL's, currently in rotation is Blueming, Cherry Blossoms After Winter and KinnPorsche (for obvious reasons).

2022-05-13 17:19:29 +0000 UTCI have Terius ready to watch, have you liked it? I really enjoyed Uncanny Counters but there are a few bullying scenes that are pretty terrible 😢

2022-05-13 17:19:07 +0000 UTCI too will start Sound of Magic this weekend, maybe binge it. I have my fingers crossed for that one. I still have the list of currently airing shows which I’m mostly committed to. Liberation Notes is on that list because I fell hard for Gu, but unlike many other watchers, I have absolutely no love for the 3 siblings, especially the brother and older sister. If I have a favorite among the current shows, it’s probably Tomorrow, because the actors are very compelling and the individual stories that the reapers engage in are interesting and well done. I’m also simultaneously watching several others: the Cdrama Master of My Own (it’s also current but new episodes come out daily), and Sungkyunkwan Scandal, a very old sageuk starring a very young Park Min Young.

2022-05-13 17:07:27 +0000 UTCWhat on earth is Sound of Magic? I've watched three episodes and I cannot tell if it's a coming of age or delusional or romance or tetanus accident waiting to happen. Guess I'll finish it so that I can find out. One of the charms of k-dramas is that they don't feel limited by genre but I would prefer to watch this show without the lingering concern that everything is going to be murdered by a cut-rate magician and/or urban neglect. Or I'll stick with Tomorrow which is solid and compelling.

2022-05-13 16:38:01 +0000 UTCAbout to finish Terius Behind Me with my favorite, So Ji Sub and then I might try Uncanny Counter this weekend as well!
