My emotions for Six Flying Dragons were just so high that I can't believe I watched this drama for one month now! I love Six Flying Dragons!!!! It's a must-watch!!! If you love political, royal, and action story, with little romance, this is for you! Absolutely something I will recommend for people who are historical fiction fans!!! Totally worth the watch and time! Plot- 9.9/10 Music: 9.5/10 Cast: 10/10 Production: 9.9/10 Costumes and Props: 10/10 Audience Impact: 10/10 Cinematography: 9.1/10 My Overall?: 9.7/10. This is a masterpiece and a work of art!

Definitely as moving as 1 Liter of Tears. Yes. I kept comparing it by how beautiful this show was to that Jdrama. They focused on the sickness as the main plot, nothing else.

I just finished Lee Min Ho and Kim Rae Won's 2015 kdrama!!! 🥰 My rating: 9.8/10- Grand standing, Standing Ovation. Totally one of the best neo-noir movies I've watched. The movie just showed that Korean Gangs weren't a group that was to be underestimated. ... Gangnam Blues will definitely be one of my favorite gangster neo-noir movies and stories alongside Heartless City, Inside Men, The Godfather (Hollywood), The Worst of Evil, Donnie Brasco, A Bittersweet Life, and Night In Paradise! Anyway, I've told you the kind of movie Gangnam Blues was, so, I hope those who would read this know now what to expect. Gangnam Blues/1970 is a very mature show. It isn't for people with weak stomach for violence. Pretty sure, some fans of Lee Min Ho who's used seeing him in romcoms will have a difficult time watching this drama. Well, I'm a fan of neo-noir. As a fan of Neo-noir, I always have my standard. They need to have extreme grit, doesn't shy away from violence and gore, shows enough action, and in the end, finishes of with a proper punishment for all the sins they've commited while doing their crime. What I loved about Gangnam 1970/Gangnam Blues was that, I felt the friendship of Jong Dae and Yong Sik in this story. I sympathized with their characters, too. They're neither good or evil, they were just caught up with the kind of life thrown to them. Lastly, it has that satisfactory aura of darkness and sadness I usually look for when watching neo-noir. Also, the OST caught me off guard. Shocked me when 'Anak' played in the background. Even so, I can pretty much understand why they used that song for this movie. The song explored the choices of men and when their lives suddenly go wrong...

I'm writing a review on this since the ending was one of the most painful endings I've seen. I love how past and present came together... I love how they also allowed viewers to pity the sorrow of every character in this show and let people see that all of them are actually victims of time and fate. Even so, it did hurt me to see Soo Ho live longer like hoe Goblin placed a knife on my chest. Even so, unlike Goblin, this show isn't a golden fairy tale but rather, feels more gothic as if I was watching Pan's Labyrinth. I was waiting for an ending like in Goblin but alas! They did not. It was painful in that part and makes me scream I want a season 2. 😭 I need to see a scifi futuristic time where they meet again and his immortality ends... 😭 Sorry for the spoilers...

Pretty much enjoyed the whole thing!!! Well, since I've always been a fan of noir and crime fiction, Big Bet or Casino was definitely a decent watch. Most of all, it actually felt strange seeing my own country in the show. I've accepted that my country had its own dark side as well which they actually depicted so well but I hope Philippines will be shown in good light soon in another kdrama. Anyway, I love Lee Dong Hwi's acting here! I wanted to finish it since I am a fan of Son Suk Ku but surprisingly, it was Lee Dong Hwi who totally drew me in. :)

I've always been a fan of Joo Won and I'm happy he had a good project last year!!! The Midnight Studio feels like Hotel Del Luna and I'm happy SK created a horror close to my religion so I can relate better. This story is a must watch! I also very much enjoy Kwon Nara, too!!! 🥰

I can't just not write a review on Gu Family Book since I enjoyed every moment. It has action, strong leads, amazing music, the plot was well so executed that I felt everyone's pain, and most of all, the ending was just a bittersweet candy that I hoped they made a season 2 but in a modern era setting! Anyway, the CGI for that era was already good enough and Lee Seung Gi's almost perfect acting could compensate with the CGI. This was way back 2013 anyway so that's understandable. Bae Suzy was also very amazing in this show and I would keep on the look out for her! This drama was also one of those historical fantasy fiction dramas that will be difficult for me to forget. What I liked about it was that, the whole story isn't too complicated and it has very few plotholes. It closed every problem they presented, anyway.

I did enjoy Parasyte The Maxim and I finally chose to watch Parasyte The Grey. One thing good about it was the CGI but here comes my criticism on the drama. It's good they made their own story without Shinichi in the beginning. It's going to be good for those who haven't seen the anime or those who watched the anime but didn't totally understand Parasyte's dillema. The manga wasn't all about violence and gore at all. The drama was too much into gore and why do they need to add a cult again? That was what pissed me off so much! I hated the concept of Saejin Church. It's way better without that concept! The manga doesn't have any religion inside it. The anime was very thought provoking, emotional, and painful. It's also a bit heartwarming. You'll pity the enemies and love them, too. Meanwhile, Parasyte The Grey was just gore and violence. I also couldn't feel Suin and Heidi. Them writing with each other was like me watching Harry writing a note to Tom Riddle in his diary...
