Probably just need to be in the right mood. Or maybe consider one of the shorter length ones like Family Matters (6 eps). No need to force it though, nothing wrong with sticking more with movies if that's how you enjoy your time. I've got the opposite "condition" where I put off movies for dramas

I think I am going to try "I Am Solo" on Kocowa as my next thing after Better Late Than Single. Supposedly the actively airing "Season" 33 (along with 19 and 12) is a "single since birth" special. The seasons are actually only like 5 episodes or somethng though; I think this originally started in 2021.

Love locks are a thing, but I don't think they're anywhere near as popular here and I also haven't run into any dedicated love-locking bridges for them either lol

Love locks aren't something I have seen ever. Maybe carving names into trees and wooden piers is the closest to a love lock that I can think of.

>>222534033
Those day time dramas? Big "maybe" but I will watch more kdramas and post kdrama relevant posts (mostly).

also In Guk and So Min are totally going to end up as bio brother and sister, arent they? I'm near the end and that drawing he kept with him as a child is his family and So Min, I just have a hunch. Then the smile will really leave their eyes huh.

They're more like reality shows. But I've been primarily watching ones where it's all "older" people -- late 20s to 30s -- who've never even held hands, let alone been in a real relationship. They're autistic and sweet. Better Late Than Single was good (season 2 in particular; they're unrelated so it's fine to jump in wherever whenever)

>>222534128
Yeah, I was going to mention it, but you don't wanna ruin the moment! I think the super touristy bridges that get loads of them tend to cut the locks off once it gets bad, though, provided they're actually maintained. Maybe find a place that explicitly allows you to use them?

I tried watching Better Late Than Single. The first dude they show was so awkward but he looked good! Well maybe America needs to bring back love locks to reignite some romance back into this country.

Proud watcher and enjoyer of Singles Inferno here - I may have watched most of season one a while back. I will likely keep watching dramas, I have a few I want to watch.
>>
>>222534161
It makes it pointless to use a love lock if some government wagie is just gonna come along and cut it a couple months later.
>>
>>222534251
I tried Singles Inferno, but I never made it past the first episode. Was it actually good? I got the impression that the women in S01E01 were your boudoir bag types, so it turned me off :(
I've seen Better Late Than Single, Couples Palace, and now I'm on "I Am Solo".

>>222534291
Any mechanical engineers here? What do I need to machine my love lock out of so it breaks their bolt cutters when they try to break apart me and Park Eun-bin's love? I know tungsten is hard, but I assume it's probably too brittle and they'd just exploit the geometry of the lock instead!
>>
>>222534291

The better strategy is probably to find an uncommon spot where it won't kill the bridge and where someone won't come by to ruin your relationship

It was "good" like Jersey Shore / Real World / Road Rules was good - not really, just eye candy. Hence why I forgot most of it. I am not the og boudoir poster, I just post actresses with expensive purses.

As I did for "Eyes of Dawn" and "Sandglass," I'm doing a halfway write-up for "Heard It Through the Grapevine." I'm 15 episodes into the show's 30, so the timing works out. It also happens to fall the day after director Ahn Pan-seok passed away at 64, which gives this write-up a different weight than I expected it to have.

I'm still fairly new to Pan-seok's filmography, having only seen 15 episodes of this show and 4 episodes of "A Wife's Credentials" so far, but he's quickly becoming one of my favorite kdrama directors based on that limited exposure alone. Both shows share a real interest in how families perform respectability, and both find their sharpest material in small, specific behaviors rather than big dramatic gestures. Losing a director I was just starting to fall for, in the middle of watching one of his best-regarded works, is a strange kind of sad.

"Heard It Through the Grapevine" is a black comedy about the Han family, a prestigious and wealthy clan whose world is upended when their teenage son In-sang gets Seo Bom, a girl from a far less affluent family, pregnant. Both families are forced to navigate the fallout of the resulting marriage and child, a collision that exposes just how differently the two households operate. What I love most about the show is how quietly it presents the class disparity at its center. The Hans deal with everything through contracts and under-the-table negotiations, while Bom's family relies on the human touch, and the show trusts the audience to notice that contrast rather than underlining it. It's an approach that might read as too subtle for viewers used to more direct social commentary, but I think that restraint is one of the show's real virtues.
>>
>>222534469
Well I am just day dreaming about actresses who are galaxies out of my league. If I am just cutting loose here, they're all my "type" but romance requires a specific heartbeat trigger.

Your dad sounds mysterious. Materialism is nice to a degree.

The show is billed as a black comedy, though the comedy has felt more like observational satire than anything overtly dark, closer in spirit to something like "The Forsyte Saga" or "Upstairs Downstairs" than to pitch-black material. Some of my favorite moments have been the small culture-clash beats around the Han dinner table, In-sang mimicking his father-in-law's habits and infuriating his parents in the process.

Structurally, I've been especially impressed by Bom's arc. She's gone from a nice, submissive girl to someone who can navigate the Han family's world with real grace and discretion, and that shift has paid off in how capably she handles her sister Noo-ri's troubles in the show's more recent episodes. It's the kind of slow-building character development that makes me want to see how the back half plays out.

Like "A Wife's Credentials," this is written by Jung Sung-joo, Pan-seok's frequent collaborator, and their partnership is clearly a big part of why both shows work as well as they do. I'll post another write-up once I finish the series, hopefully with a fuller sense of what Pan-seok was building here, and a better way of saying goodbye to him than I have right now.

Yeah, I don't particularly want to get beaten over the head with anything, whether it is a lecture or even just things like comedy. Subtler writing is better. I tend to prefer stuff from more high-context societies because of that as is (it's a real shame, because prior to Hays Code being abandoned, we had very similar writing to the style I prefer -- e.g., The Thin Man, etc)
