A truly spectacular and emotional performance by the two main actors, Seo Yeaji and Kim Kangwoo, who remarkably kept us engaged till the very end, completing with a heart tugging act that made us reach for tissues to dry our eyes. Seo Yeaji once again proved to us how good an actor she is by convincingly portraying Soojin, an amnesiac woman who’s vulnerable, suspicious, yet … Continue reading Recalled (2021)
Sunny and Silenced are two Korean films and both are excellent. Silenced is a poignant and depressing movie based on a true event that happened in a special school where the deaf children are abused by the Principal and teachers. In the first half of the movie, the horrible abuses are unveiled one by one. The second half is a courtroom drama. The movie is … Continue reading Silenced (2011)

If you wanna know how good this movie is, well let me tell you. Have you ever watched Miracle Cell No.7? It is that good, or even better (because it’s about a grandma and granddaughter relationship, which i personally prefer because my grandma has my entire heart.) Compared to MCN7, I think this has a more of a happy ending, which will give your heart … Continue reading A Little Princess (2019)
‘Innocence’ begins intriguingly with a funeral in a backwater small town, whereupon the supercilious village mayor (Huh Jun-ho) and a number of the local townsfolk are poisoned after drinking rice wine laced with pesticide. The suspect is none other than the deceased’s wife Hwa-ja (Bae Jong-ok), who is taken into custody and promptly charged with the heinous act. As you would expect, the subsequent plotting … Continue reading Innocence (2020)
Somehow, all through the 20 episodes of Iris-1, Ailiseu (original title), I was able to keep the characters straight, although Westerners have difficulty sorting faces of Orientals, and the names are tricky, too. In Iris-II, I don’t know who is who after a single viewing, although the performers are quite capable of portraying a character, and delivering some great stunt-fighting, also. From IRIS-1, I think … Continue reading Iris 2: The Movie (2013)
“Killer Toon” is a horror movie with a good atmosphere, nice acting (even if it leans to the over-acting side, especially in the case of Hyun Woo, who seems on a mission to make his eyes pop out of his face), and an interesting story: the creator of a series of webcomics sees how her creations come to life and people start dying as in … Continue reading Killer Toon (2013)
Come on guys, why did you give such a grumpy ending?? It ruined my mood now. I love time travel movies so much and this was a one of a kind time travel stuffs I had really never imagined! I guess koreans are experts in time travel genres. Story is great characters are mindblowing. They have really researched and developed the characters in it properly. … Continue reading The Call (2020)
This is one of the two dramas that I binge-watch to death😂😂😂( the other one is Arthdal Chronicles). I finished this at 4:30 am.😁 My reasons? I love Ji Sung 🖤🖤🖤🖤🖤🖤. I first saw him in Kill Me, Heal Me and I instantly become a huge fan. He’s so good in acting and he didn’t disappoint me not even once. I find medical drama interesting. … Continue reading Doctor John (2019)
My synopsis really doesn’t do this movie justice, because the film is so adorable and moving. One of the main themes examined in the film is the treatment of those with mental disabilities in society. Ji Woo is mercilessly bullied in school due to her disability, but she is widely brilliant too. She can look at a polka dotted tie and in a few seconds … Continue reading Witness (2019)
