A Bit Disappointing…

‘ Bulgasal’ is one of those dramas that should’ve been really, really, really good . It had a decent cast, an intriguing setup and the fact that this was written by the same writers as ‘’The Guest’’ should’ve spoken volumes.

But instead we got sixteen episodes of moping, cheesy interactions and a dragging plot which could’ve easily been wrapped up in six episodes max. Don’t doubt me when I say that I did like certain elements of the series. I really liked the idea surrounding the monsters, the bulgasal and the concept of reincarnation.

My biggest problem was that it just wasn’t carried forward. There was no real sense of threat or obstacles, and even when there were multiple opportunities to do so, there really wasn’t anything added to explain these key concepts.

Perhaps my one saving grace for the show was Lee Joon. I’m familiar with his work and whilst I’m not a fan, Lee Joon and Lee Jin Wook were good onscreen. Apart from a few decent performances and a mystical concept, I’m not sure whether I’d watch this again.

Now I’m ‘ Breaking’ Up With This Show…

Sometimes when you’ve got to drop a show, you’ve got to drop a show and as much as it pains me to say it ‘ Now, We’re Breaking Up’ is one of them.

In all honesty I didn’t actually think the series started off on a bad note per say. The pacing was a bit slow but I was willing to give it a go as an “ in-between” series.

However six episodes and I really can’t go on. I’ll be honest by saying that I didn’t want to drop this one. I hate dropping shows but between the shoddy line deliverances and acting this isn’t one I’m going to continue.

Not for me…



I love cliche dramas. I think it is wonderful to see so many original productions and genres coming out of South Korea and I do love watching them but give me an old school style kdrama any day of the week and I’ll be happy. HOwEVeR when I say that I like old school style kdramas, I mean that I like to see a different take on them or a different dynamic that what’s been seen before.

I think this is where one of my problems runs with Crazy Love. It possessed the potential to be different and present that unusual dynamic with the female lead’s motives and the male lead’s dilemma but it was never quite willing to push the boundaries into something more lively or worthwhile.

This is a lot for me to say as I do love Kim Jae Wook. I first remember seeing him in My Private Life and liked how he was able to capture a certain charm to his onscreen role as the male lead. Additionally while honestly some of Krystal’s projects can be very hit or miss , I remember being impressed by her acting skills in Search.

Here Jae Wook and Krystal’s chemistry is very choppy. At times there is a lot of heart put into lines and exchanges but for what felt like most of the series, their onscreen romance felt a bit underwhelming.

My big problem with Crazy Love was that it wasn’t entirely sure with what it was trying to present. There were times where tackling dark subject areas could feel interesting but the series also heavily relied on a lot of childish setups and misunderstandings. ( The most annoying being the attempts to sabotage the FL. Perhaps funny in the first few episodes, but gradually grew more frustrating.)

I don’t think this is entirely bad per say as I love comedy but it did often feel as though Crazy Love was a bit displaced with its identity with its tone as well as with all of its cliches.

I think that Crazy Love isn’t entirely disastrous but it was certainly a waste of time for me.
