thoughts…
I am huge Sci-fi & KOO KYO HWAN fan so I got my popcorn ready for a Friday Binge of “Parasyte: The Grey”.
JENN’S WATCHLIST
“Escape of The Seven” The Chaos Is Back 🖤
SBS / Escape of the Seven: Resurrection
Sort of a slow start but totally worth it to see LEE JOON and this maniacal group again!
Key takeaways:
Need MUCH MORE Lee Joon in future episodes
I love that he is so intensely serious no matter how ridiculous the situation 😆
I actually felt bad for YOON JONG HOON’s heartbroken and grieving Yang Jin Mo
It was great to see KIM DO HOON and his ‘K’ crazy again
Still love the antics of the most absurd couple in kdramaland SHIN EUN KYUNG & JO JAE YOON
Entirely too much time - and leaps of logic - spent setting up HWANG JUNG EUM’s irredeemable mother’s redemption arc
Is Da Mi really dead?
It’s just so messy! I’m officially hooked 😆
Murder, Affairs, First Love, Police, Politics plus The Press….it has EVERYTHING. JANG SEUNG JO’s cad character is the most intriguing and need to know more about the how's and why’s of it all.
I give up. This show makes ZERO sense and I have buckets full of quibbles but I am here for this ride as long as Hong Hae In [KIM JI WON] is victorious in the end! I would also like to see her naive, simple, sheltered brother Hong Soo Cheol [KWAK DONG YEON] find some real happiness - this man child tries so hard! The rest? Meh.
Didn’t get to this one this week…will be caught up for Sunday’s LIVE!

KDrama Coffee Break LIVE Replay
😆 Thanks to long-time Kdrama Bff sgwordy for correcting my “Queen of Tears” math - there are only 10 EPISODES left not 10 Weeks - so 15 hours left not 30 🤭
Other than my bad math skills, we had fantastic chats about:
QUEEN OF TEARS
FLEX X COP
WONDERFUL WORLD
CHICKEN NUGGET
NOTHING UNCOVERED
THE IMPOSSIBLES: WEDDING & HEIR 😜
You can watch the replay with time codes.
Jump straight to the kdramas you want to chat about and avoid spoilers on those you haven't gotten to yet.
Have a great week!
