Ah yes, the Crown Prince. I know there is a protocol to being royalty: no sass to the king, no calling people out in court. But really? We didn’t see this coming? These. People. Are. Out. To. Get. You. One of the more annoying things about the Good Guy royalty in this Kdrama is that…

Boys Over Flowers: Episodes 8-12 – And Now, It’s Serious.
Hello everybody! So, I’ve been slacking off on getting my part of the BOF episode reviews out there, partly because I need to get used to the new format of reviewing a few episodes at a time. You know me, I love being really, really detailed! Anyway, let’s see if I can do this right:…
WBDS: Episodes 1-10, or There Are Two Things I’m Afraid Of….
So like many a historical drama, they just drop you right in the middle of the action. This time, we come across the Crown Prince behaving badly, which wouldn’t be so bad, except everyone else around him seems to pay the price for his nationalism. If you’ve spent some time with Korean royalty in Kdramas,…
Boys Over Flowers: Episode 7
Yes, it was at this point when I decided that Boys Over Flowers was about….well, the boys. I reached my wit’s end with Jan Di (I know, there is more frustration to come!), but just as I was going to throw in the towel, SHE showed up. Oh, you heard whispers about her in earlier…
Boys Over Flowers: Episode 6, Part 2
Part 2! Time to get to the second half of the episode, and no, this half of the episode doesn’t get any better from the first half as far as liking Jan Di goes. To quote the great Antoine Dodson, “You are so dumb, you are really dumb.” “For real.” It’s post-vacation, and Ji Hoo and Jan…
Boys Over Flowers: Episode 6, Part 1
Okay, so unfortunately I (Michelle, aka Nabi) binge-watched the entirety of Boys Over Flowers after Episode 5, so I’ll be going back, reading episode summaries, and writing about the important things that linger in my memory about each episode. Or at least the ones I write about. I think CeeFu and I are still alternating…
Boys Over Flowers: The Prologue
Originally published on High Yellow February 2, 2011, Written by CeeFu I know, I know, I talked about Boys Over Flowers before, but it warrants a revisit, and what better way to do it than with a friend! I have enlisted Nolan Nabi to rewatch the whole pimptastic kdrama again with me, and we will…
Boys Over Flowers: Episode 1
Originally published on High Yellow February 4, 2011, Written by CeeFu You know, some things never get old. Like pimptastic, overindulged Korean privileged boys entering their high school backlight with a halo of light, as they stroll in in suits and ascots. Oh, yeah, I guess I should say something about Jan Di first. Yes,…
Boys Over Flowers: Episode 2
Originally published on High Yellow February 9, 2011, Written by Nabi SUCH a good episode! I noticed that they played SHINee’s musical contribution to the soundtrack a lot during this one (which I thoroughly approve of!), so much so that I may have to go and get it. “Whether I’m making you smile…” Alright, let’s…
Boys Over Flowers: Episode 3
Originally published on High Yellow on February 19, 2011, Written by CeeFu Oh my! I think this episode does a lot for character development and interaction. So, I love the interplay between Jun Pyo and Jan Di (I’m not totally against her….yet…she still has her moments). You can tell that when he calls her a…
