Cheese In The Trap is the new tvN sensation which is gaining public interest and love week after week. It is based on a webtoon with a huge fandom and I think it has found its place in everyone’s heart. I haven’t read it so I’m glad I don’t have to take the original as a yardstick to measure how good Cheese In The Trap is but for now I’m finding it really good, very quirky, different and unpredictable. This first impressions post is based on 4 episodes. Continue reading →

And I’m glad that there is not much fat shaming. Continue reading →

Thankfully, the show is not getting subbed and I managed to watch first two episodes. I’m finding it very interesting and something very different from what we usually see in dramaland. It has mystery, eerie atmosphere and secrets. Continue reading →

Usually I watch two episodes before putting down my thoughts on the first impressions I get after watching a drama. But I have made exceptions in the past when I’m so happy to watch the premiere episode that I jot down my feels well before the second episode. So here they are — my first impressions for She Was Pretty. Continue reading →
