There are love stories, and then there’s Yakuza Fiancé. From the moment I picked up the manga, I knew I was in for something wild. And now, with the anime adaptation out, my obsession has only grown. It’s intense, it’s messy, and it’s everything I didn’t know I needed from a romance story. But let me be clear: while I love the main storyline and all its twists, there’s one character who stands above the rest for me — Shoma.   Quick Summary : Yakuza Fiancé follows Yoshino, a girl from a yakuza family, who gets roped into an arranged marriage...

Here’s my personal take on episode 8 - 11!   🔥 Episode 8: Sparks Fly (Literally and Figuratively) This episode had me laughing, cringing, and secondhand blushing all at once. After all the madness with Acrobatic Silky, we finally get a bit of "down time" with Momo, Okarun, Seiko, Turbo Granny, and the new addition, Aira. But honestly, calling it "down time" feels wrong because Momo and Aira's rivalry takes center stage. The passive-aggressive back-and-forth between Momo and Aira? Absolutely hilarious. The awkward "does she like Okarun or not?" moments made me want to yell at the screen. And Aira’s...

Summary: The story revolves around Do Min-Ik, a high-ranking executive with a cold, calculating personality. He relies heavily on his secretary, Jung Gal-Hee, who secretly begins to live a double life, taking on a fake identity to get closer to him. As expected, feelings start to develop, and things get complicated. At first, it seemed like a fun, lighthearted take on the classic "boss-secretary" trope with a bit of mistaken identity thrown in. The setup had potential for humor, charm, and heartfelt moments. But as the episodes rolled on, I found myself losing interest. Thoughts:  Dropping a K-drama is never...

I started the drama that's on Netflix  Mr. Plankton At first glance, I wasn’t sure what to expect. The title sounded quirky, maybe even playful. But after just one episode, I realized this show was about to take me on a raw, emotional journey I didn’t even know I needed.   Summary:  The story revolves around Hae Jo, a man who feels like — you guessed it — a plankton. Drifting aimlessly from place to place, he’s never truly been able to "anchor" himself anywhere, thanks to a broken family and an isolated upbringing. But things shift when he decides...

Summary: True to Love (aka Bo-ra! Deborah) is a charming rom-com about Yeon Bo-ra, a confident dating coach and romance author who ironically struggles with her own love life. Her path collides with Lee Soo-hyuk, a no-nonsense publishing planner, sparking an unexpected and slow-burn romance. The show blends humor, heartache, and self-discovery as Bo-ra learns that love is messier than any dating guide. Packed with witty moments and emotional growth, it offers a refreshing take on modern relationships and the gap between "knowing" love and actually living it. My thoughts:  I’ll admit, this K-drama was a bit tough to get...
