The Four Episode 21 - 24


Episodes 21-24 = Kidnaps x 2 + Near-deaths x 2 + Amnesia. 


The Four Episode 19 and 20


Again, I only write about Li Mo and Leng Xue. I care about nothing else. However when the show makes their romance so anti-climatic, I can hear the taut strings attaching me to the show snapping one by one.

Nothing bad happened; everthing was good. Which is precisely why it sucked. I don't even know how and why things got to mutuality but we're there. And the second we're there, there's already trouble at the noble idiocy level. Show, you're doing everything wrong. 

We Are In Love [我们相爱吧] - Episode 1


Chinese Version of WGM that aired Apri 19, 2015. 

So far I'm loving the first couple: Kimi and Xu Lu.Their first meeting = JaeRim + JoonMi’s. Xu Lu resembles Seo Hyun (in her WGM days) but more playful while Kimi is the experienced fella minus the cheesy lines. Their cuteness reminds me of TaeEun in the early days too. Tell me how awesome these two are. Other couples include: Ren Zhong + Ruby Lin and Choi Siwon + Liu Wen.


Update:

The Four Episode 17 and 18


I can’t believe I’m wasting almost two hours of my life to watch less than two minutes of these two.

Highlight of episodes: Leng Xue realizes his feelings for Chu Li Mo.

Let's Eat Season 2 Episode 1 and 2 First Impression


I was graced with my lack of interest in Let’s Eat for the first season while it was airing that I got to indulge in the full glory of the series in a zippy after it was completed. Initially my interest was diverted because I thought this was only food porn. I mean, I understand there exists a great handful of watchers that would bite on this hook but I’m not interested; to me, there’s much more to this show than just food.

As for the second season, I’m liking it so far and I’m hoping I’ll be loving it.

Just finished this week’s episodes of The Four and here’s the recap:

Divorce Lawyers Episode 7


It’s an interesting episode as Luo Li’s mom comes into the scene and soaks up all the juicy details about her daughter’s love life. Shi Hai Dong earns himself a little stalker-angel from above but that doesn’t last long.

The Four Review (Episode 2 - 12)


Yes, I gave up on recapping this. If I were to continue recapping, I’d be too busy nitpicking and not enjoying the show. I’ll be frank, the acting’s way below par and the storyline…well it’s a bit too fluffy with no substance and too much CG. After the first few episodes I thought I was just going to check in and check out once in a while but I ended up not only being caught up, I also find myself thinking about it once in a while. I think I’m a little addicted – I mean additions are usually on the bad stuff, right? I’m actually a sucker for the romance between Leng Xue and Chu Li Mo and for the backdrop of four handsome guys spinning around – I mean fighting – and solving cases.
