I'm not really interested in apocalyptic novels. Luckily, this one is about natural disasters and not zombies. But this novel did catch my eyes due to the protagonist having a space (something I don't usually encounter with modern novels). This isn't a full review of the novel because I only read to Chapter 44 and… Continue reading Book Review: Socially Anxious Girl Starts Hoarding Before the Apocalypse

Book Review: Top-tier Auntie in the Entertainment Industry
This novel actually took me several days to finish. Usually, I would binge read a novel from start to finish almost in one sitting but I kept losing interest. I have another review in progress for another novel from the same translation team so I won't go into details about the quality but there are… Continue reading Book Review: Top-tier Auntie in the Entertainment Industry
Thoughts on Snowdrop (Ep 4-11)
I just finished the latest episode of Snowdrop (Episode 11) and although I'm happy about the new development, my heart feels restless knowing that it is very possible Soo-ho and Yeong-Ro will not have a happy ending. When Soo-ho takes one of Yeong-Ro's cassette tapes with the intent to copy over it (to duplicate a… Continue reading Thoughts on Snowdrop (Ep 4-11)
Book Review: Girl, Your April Has Peach Blossoms
Right now, all I can really handle are one shot, short stories as I'm pretty swamped. This short story actually took me 2-3 days to finish when it probably should have been completed in one sitting. It's pretty good and honestly made me sort of relived those moments of meeting a boy, crushing on him,… Continue reading Book Review: Girl, Your April Has Peach Blossoms
Thoughts on Snowdrop (Ep 1-3)
There is a lot of controvery over this show, especially domestically. International viewers probably won't understand. I think the best explanation I saw on this came from a comment thread: If you know a bit about Korean history, you'll know that the dictatorship massacred thousands of people during a democratic uprising in the 1980s including… Continue reading Thoughts on Snowdrop (Ep 1-3)
Thai Lakorn Review, Part 4: Hua Jai Sila
I watched the first half of Hua Jai Sila back in 2019 and recently had finished the other half. The reviews are split into five parts: Part 1 (Ep 1-5), Part 2 (Ep 6-12), Part 3 (Ep 13-18). This post is Part 4 which will encompass episodes 19-23. The final post will be Part 5… Continue reading Thai Lakorn Review, Part 4: Hua Jai Sila
Thai Lakorn Review, Part 3: Hua Jai Sila
I finally got around to finishing Hua Jai Sila. I forget how much I enjoy Tor Thanapob's acting. He definitely carried this show and Ferny Nopjira, who plays Min, is nice eye candy. She's super gorgeous and her pairing with Tor Thanapob is perfect. They both still remain one of the most iconic Thai lakorn… Continue reading Thai Lakorn Review, Part 3: Hua Jai Sila
Boys Over Flowers & It’s Many Adaptations
I recently found out that there is a Thai version of Boys Over Flowers currently airing called F4 Thailand: Boys Over Flowers. It has been 2.5 years since I've watched a Thai lakorn. I feel like I knew they were doing a Thai version of this ever popular drama based on the manga but I… Continue reading Boys Over Flowers & It’s Many Adaptations
Review: Buying from Jolse
Now that I finally received my second package from Jolse, I decided to write a review. Jolse is an online beauty shop based in Korea that ship worldwide. The prices aren't too bad and they are known to send freebies with your orders. For the US, you get free standard shipping for orders over $30.… Continue reading Review: Buying from Jolse
Chinese Drama Review: Falling Into Your Smile
I'm a big fan of the esports/gaming genre and have partially read You’re Beautiful When You Smile, the novel which Falling Into Your Smile is adapted from. So I was super excited to watch this, especially with Xu Kai playing the male lead, Lu Sicheng. He is so good looking! I'm currently re-reading the novel… Continue reading Chinese Drama Review: Falling Into Your Smile
