Go Kyung Pyo Protected His Heart and Dream In Frankly Speaking Episode 3

Posted by keismagic on
This episode tells us exactly what it means to be protecting our hearts by expressing what we really mean and by standing up for our own self including our dreams. Nobody would be able to protect us but ourselves. This is really such a great reminder to all of us especially in our modern society today where we compromise ourselves and our feelings to give way to other people because there's hierarchy that dictates us what to do. This happens most especially in our workplace. It's true that in order to survive this chain, we must use white lies and sugarcoat our words to come out pleasing to the ears of those we wanted to have a good impression with but we should do it moderately. In a way that, we wouldn't lose our true selves in the long run. That has become the problem with Song Ki Baek here. He was so used to living in lies and sugarcoat everything that he lost his true self to get himself to his desired dream/goal. Now that he got a disease of telling only the truth, it

Battle For Happiness Kdrama Exposes The Sad Truth Behind Obsession To Social Media | Episodes 1 - 3 Quick Recap

Posted by keismagic on

I found yet another intriguing on-going Kdrama yesterday and it's called Battle for Happiness. There's actually 8 episodes out now as of writing this blog post, I'm catching up with it and I'm now done with 3 episodes. Guess what? I think I like it and am gonna continue watching it. 


This drama showcases the modern life today, how people became dependent on showing-off their 'good life' on social media when in exchange of likes and large following but in reality they're lonely and depressed. Oh Yoo Jin (Park Hyo Joo) is a housewife with 2 kids and is surrounded by luxuries. She runs and IG account with 17k followers and shares a different kind of reality of her life to her followers. She's so addicted with her 'good' image to the public that she's willing to do anything in order to look like she's above others especially to her friends who are also active on social media. She's a fake and crazy AF kind of woman. Her obsession even made her gather dirty secrets of her 'friends' in case they take the spotlight from her to the public. This mentality eventually gained her lots of enemies that led to her murder case. 

Jang Mi Ho (Lee El) on the other hand is a bank employee and happened to be connected with Oh Yoo Jin. I thought before that they were some kind of lovers (lol) but it turned out that they were once a family. They're actually became sisters when their parents remarried. But this sisterhood got broken when their parents divorced but not legally. I don't know exactly yet what's making Oh Yoo Jin so scared of meeting her again. Was she just afraid that the public will know about her family background? What's so shameful about it though? But I think there's more into it. There seems to be some kind of feud/physicality that happened between the two of them which is for me to find out in the next episodes.


Anyways, this drama gives off The Penthouse vibe but not exactly the same. I'm curious who's the suspect behind Oh Yoo Jin's death and what will happen to the other mothers who are also obessed with showing off on social media. I want to know their dirty secrets. Kkkk
