Healer: Mid-Series Thoughts


Alas. This post has been a long time coming. I only hope I can recall all my thoughts and do them and this amazing drama justice.

(Note: These are my thoughts - no summary, sorry - on episodes 1-14, so definitely spoilers ahead.)

There are those dramas that speak to your mind - on the intellectual level, like the recently finished Pinocchio starring Park Shin-hye and Lee Jong-suk. Then there are those that get your heart - about those basic human wants and emotions we've all felt at some point. This is the crux of Healer, and I think what is drawing such an explosive online attention. Because let's face it, at the end of the day - heart >>> head. Put that in a world with intrigue, scandal, and high stakes, and it's easy to see why it's such a captivating watch.

Plus Nine Boys: Series review


This is my first time doing this. So bear with me.

Plus Nine Boys is a 2014 Korean drama series that just finished airing on the cable network TvN finishing at 14 episodes after getting its length axed possibly due to a mixture of low ratings and plagiarism accusations. I wanted to review it because not only did I like it a lot but because I feel it could have been so much better if it had more episodes to grow into.

Spoilers ahead! I warned you!
