Everyone,
I just wanted to point you towards Ella's story, which she shares in the comment section of the Soundtrack #2 trailer, which I shared in yesterday's Entertainment Drop.
I won't say anything more here, other than it's fabulous, and I wish the whole world could hear this story!
So please go check it out here!

This little clip promises some sweet romance in this show, which is due to air sometime this month, on iQIYI. I'm actually pretty curious about this one, coz it's been looking darkly stylish in the trailers.
You can check out the previous trailers here and here.

This one comes highly recommended by a friend of mine, who says that the acting and dialogue in this are both fantastic. If you like women-centric stories, this could be for you.
Show's synopsis on MDL reads:
"Zhang Pei, Gou Dan Dan, Dong Jia Xi and Wu Yun are four girls who grew up together.
Zhang Pei is a strict insurance agent, Gou Dan Dan is a brilliant beauty blogger, Dong Jia Xi works at a theater to pursue her dream and Wu Yan was admitted to become a sub...

I've been waiting for this one ever since Show dropped its first trailer many moons ago, and it's finally here, you guys.
Show is a star-studded anthology of 10 love stories, so you can watch them as standalone stories, if you're in the mood for a bit of drama, but don't want to commit to something longer.
Show dropped all 10 eps on Friday, 10 Nov, so you can check it out right away, on Netflix.

Y'know, I honestly thought that this would be maybe a female-centric version of Beethoven Virus, where Kim Myung Min starred as the maestro, but.. it looks like there'll be bloody secrets in this one, akin to recent kdrama Ballerina..?
WHY does everything have to linked to murder these days, is what I want to know. It doesn't actually make the dramas different from one another, y'know? 🙄

Well, this trailer looks slightly less dark and bloody than the first one, so I'm wavering again, like, maybe this is something I could manage to watch..? 😅
Season 2 is due to drop on Netflix, on 1 Dec.

If you liked Soundtrack #1, you might be excited that we're about to get Soundtrack #2, on our screens. I'm personally quite interested to see how this one works out.

I'm guessing some of you have been looking forward to this one, coz we've got Seo In Guk and Park So Dam headlining.
I'm intrigued by the premise and the very solid guest list of hosts, but I'm also uncertain of how this one's going to shake out. Coz, Doom at Your Service had sounded intriguing too.. 😅

Ooh, this one's lookin' pretty good!
I like the seaside setting, I do like 2nd chance romances, which I hadn't realized this was, and I do like Ji Chang Wook and Shin Hye Sun. I'm keeping my eye on this one!

What is it about Dramaland these days; high school + death stakes seems so.. normal, nowadays? This one totally feels like All of us are Dead meets Killing Vote meets Squid Game, and.. I'm pretty sure this one's not for me. 😅

"A mystery teen drama that takes place when a class of second-year high school students is suddenly forced to play mafia games in real life during their retreat. The drama will draw out the intense psychological warfare betwee...

We get to see more of our OTP interactions in this new trailer, and now I'm thinking, uh, mayybe this might be cute? Ish? 😅
Part of me is still hoping that this will be good, for the simple reason that it would be nice to actually like Kim Yoo Jung and Song Kang in romantic roles, so.. fingers crossed!
Show is 16 eps and will start airing on 24 Nov, on Fri and Sat, on SBS and Netflix.

It feels like just a few days ago that I wrote my last weekly update post, and yet, here I am again!
Here are this week's updates:
1. How I'm doing
Covid
I'm really happy to say that I'm doing much better now, after covid.
I feel like I have more energy and mental alertness now compared to last week, and my appetite's much better as well. I'm still dealing with a bit of lingering cough, but it's getting better, AND, my vo...

I received an email from a reader, MM, asking me for help to identify a Taiwanese drama that she'd watched in the past, and I'm coming up empty - most likely coz I haven't watched that many Taiwanese dramas, on the whole.
I was wondering if any of you would be able to identify the drama for her?
Here's what MM wrote:
"Hi,
I was reading about Taiwanese dramas on your site and thought you can help me figure out what drama this is.

Alvin Zhou used to be from Buzzfeed, and this is his own YouTube channel where he does little mini films, like this one, where he follows the day in the life of a Korean cafe owner.
It's gorgeously shot, beautifully edited, the music is lovely, and the cafe is soooo pretty and tranquil that I can understand why the owner would want to make this her job.

The Hyundai Motor Group sent Yoona to the Czech Republic for this very pretty video - though I have to confess, I don't know how this benefits Hyundai, since this really doesn't appear to be a commercial. 😅
Not complaining; this whole thing feels like a vicarious vacation. 😁
