It’s been ages since I’ve blogged on anything but in no way
does it mean that I have stopped watching dramas. To be honest, nothing much
really made me crazy for the past few months and as usual real life always take
precedence. That’s that but my interest have been revived the past weeks with
goodies like Joseon Gunman and Fated to Love You being utterly winning in
different ways. Everyone who started reading this site knew of The Princess Man’s
recaps so there’s no way in hell I would have missed out on Joseon Gunman – I have
that much faith in the production. And with names like Lee Jun Ki and Nam Sang
Mi thrown into the mix, I wouldn’t miss this for the world. I’m one of many who
saw the original FTLY but admittedly I lost interest in that one midway and had
to force myself to complete it then. Jang Hyuk’s maniac laugh takes some
getting used to but I would say the show as a whole totally channels a
different vibe, and in a good way. Jang Na-ra is so endearing that it’s not
hard to connect with her Kim Mi-young right off the bat.
I also took some time to check out offerings from other countries
since I have the time at present and hola – Boss
and Me is my latest favourite drama from China. To date, I have only
completed one modern drama from China
(and not for lack of trying) and that is Rent
a Girlfriend Home for New Year. But as of now, Boss and Me would totally replace that drama as the best cdrama
yet, for me of course. This 33-episode drama was adapted from a web novel and stars
Zhao Li Ying and Hans Zhang. I have never read the novel so I have no
expectation whatsoever but I really really adore this drama as a standalone.
