It's A Happy Ending for Got 7's Jin Young and Roh Jeong Eui's in "The Witch" Finale

Another Kdrama has ended and it's The Witch starring Got 7's Jin Young as Lee Dong Jin and Roh Jeong Eui as Park Mi Jung. Basically, the story revolves around Dong Jin finding the truth behind Mi Jung's real identity and curse. It's entitled The Witch because it refers to the existence of those who happen to have a curse with them. When someone confesses that they like Mi Jung, they all ended up severely hurt if not dead. The Witch thing only started as a mere mockery from a jealous person towards Mi Jung but it got bigger as more deaths and accidents happen around Mi Jung's close vicinity. During their high school, Dong Jin witnessed how Mi Jung isolated herself from the other students. But he tried his best to serve comfort for her in her solitude even from afar. And as he continues to observe Mi Jung, Dong Jin fell in love with her to which became his driving force to unveil the truth behind Mi Jung's mysterious curse. 

Dong Jin's chosen path was to take analytics to prove that the existence of a Witch is not true. He wanted to prove that the deaths and accidents surrounding Mi Jung were just mere coincidences with facts and data. However, he failed doing so. Eventually, Dong Jin's research turn from dismissing the idea of Mi Jung as a witch towards finding out the rules of her curse as a witch. And there, he found out the rules of death as he tried and tested each hypothesis he came up with through observation and data gathering. 

1. Being with a 10m radius of her for over 10 minutes is dangerous.

2. Holding a conversation with her is dangerous.

3. If she knows your name it's dangerous.

4. Confessing your feelings to her is dangerous.

5. Breaking all these rules will result in death.

Taxi Driver 2 Ends With Their Highest Nationwide Viewership Rating with Episode 16!

Okay that was an unexpected ending of On Ha Jun in the last episode of Taxi Driver 2. I thought he's going to go all the way with his battle with Kim Do Ki but then there comes the twist. Seriously, if I were On Ha Jun, I would really not know what to do next knowing the truth that the person I'm following and doing illegal things for is the one responsible for my life's mess. Well, I guess that's what he's already feeling when he decided to end things with the bishop by risking his own life. Ah, On Ha Jun death got me really teary eyed. Throughout the run of Taxi Driver 2, I think the only episodes that got me crying was that one case with the old lady getting scammed and this last episode because of On Ha Jun. Truly, every man born on this planet was created to be good but because of the evil people around them is what turns these good people to evil. It's sad that this is one part of our reality.

Lee Je Hoon Takes On A Big Case Almost Identical to Ex-member Bigbang Seungri's Burning Sun Scandal In Taxi Driver 2 Episodes 11 & 12


Seems like 2 episodes ain't enough to solve a huge case like the Black Sun. Well, if it involves all sins of the world in one place with powerful people operating it and backing it up, I guess it all makes sense. I find it really intriguing 'coz this feels like a case of Seungri's Burning Sun scandal. To have an idol character named Victor which translates to Seungri in Korean, I wonder if allkpop was right with the show throwing shade at him. Well, it's a shame that something like this happened in real life, people behind this case truly are evil. Intoxicating women to deliver to hotels for the VVIP costumers.. that's just... ugh.. despicable! But hey we're watching Taxi Driver 2 so let's stick with the show. kk

Lee Je Hoon Got Caught In A Car Explosion In Taxi Driver 2 Episodes 9 & 10 | Drama Recap


I was about to mourn for Kim Do Ki after that car explosion at the end of episode 10  but I saw the preview so I moved on quickly. lol But anyways episodes 9 & 10 surely made me mad AF! Male aren't the only crime offenders in this world, in fact, some of the worst criminals are women too. In this case, it's a female doctor named Ahn Young Sook who uses a ghost doctor to do the surgery for her. I honestly thought that this ghost doctor of hers was still a licensed practitioner but heck he wasn't! What a freak! No wonder she was able to make her schedule full packed with surgery, charity and tv/radio interviews because she's making a dark move behind the eyes of the public. She also takes advantage of the seniors and even book them a surgery even though they were fully fine, like.. WTF doc?!

Lee Je Hoon Transforms Into A Great Monk In Taxi Driver 2 Episodes 7 & 8


This is the sad truth about religion, people are taking advantage of it because the police or the law does not regulate on it. Members of religious organizations have their freedom to choose whether to stay or not, therefore, whatever it is that these religious leaders do with them as long as they have their consents then the police are out of it. It's understandable that these members allow themselves to have faith in whatever they find to be helping them because of hopelessness. With the case in episodes 7 & 8, the members were all bought by false testimonies that they got healed fully from their sickness through their faith with the father Ok Ju Man. Of course, if you are at the verge of dying and saw these kinds of testimonies then I would really want to join in them. However, considering that these people have so much money to offer to Ok Ju Man, I think it's really stupid of them to still remain in their faith. I mean, they could already use those money to make themselves better! I'd understand if they don't possess such wealth but I guess they were already blinded by their faith.

Lee Je Hoon And Ahn Go Eun Are Newlyweds In Taxi Driver 2 Episodes 5 & 6


Episode 5 & 6's villain is really clever among the others from the previous episodes. You just know that some people with high education are also capable of scamming other people. For Pil Seung to own his own company and continuously buying real estate property without getting caught for a long time, he surely knows how to do the strategy. Well, scammers are really called experts for their own fields (whatever it is to deceive people and gain profits from) so they would really look highly educated for some so let's not get deceived. But seriously, we really need to be careful from them.

Lee Je Hoon Helps An Old Lady From Despair In Taxi Driver 2 Episodes 2 & 3

EDIT: POST TITLE
Lee Je Hoon Helps An Old Lady From Despair In Taxi Driver 2 Episodes 3 &4

One thing I hate the most on this planet are those scums deceiving old people and so this episodes 3 & 4' of Taxi Driver 2 gave me so much wrath for the offenders and pain for the old lady. Guys, just imagine your grandmother/father, mother and father getting scammed by these devils, if you love them enough you wouldn't do that to other old people. Ah, it hurts when I see the old lady in this episode wanting nothing but the best for her child so she was so afraid to make a ruckus about what happened to her that she'll even sacrifice her own life just to end her problem in silence. It's kind of really sad though, that her son only visits her seldom that she started to seek love and sympathy for other people as she misses her own son so much. Even though her son has been busy, calling her wouldn't and asking her how she was would've cure less of her loneliness. I mean, for a mother who loves her children dearly, hearing her children's voices would be enough to make her day complete. I think there's also a need of improvement in their relationship. I hope the old lady would open up about what happened to her to her son so there would be an action from the other end. I hope that the son wasn't a scumbag though. lol

Lee Je Hoon And The Rest Of Rainbow Taxi Crew Is Back With Taxi Driver Season 2 | Episode 1 & 2 Quick Recap


Guys! My main man, the love of my life, Kim Do Ki is back!!! I'm quite late with this but I am currently catching up with the episodes of Taxi Driver 2. Yes, folks! You've read that right! The season 2 that we've all been waiting for is currently airing every Friday and Saturday on SBS since February 17. As of writing, I've already watched the first 2 episodes and gosh, I missed the whole rainbow transport crew so much! That retro theme song of the show really makes me nostalgic and happy at the same time because they're finally back. 

Let's talk about the transition first from the last season to now. We all could remember that prosecutor Kang Ha Na became a part of Rainbow Taxi, right? She has spared the whole crew before and became an ally of the team but due to 'schedule' concerns of the actress Esom who plays the role of Kang Ha Na, they've written it as if she was far away studying and all of them weren't gonna see each other again. At least, that's what Jang Sung Chul (the president) was saying during his supposed phone conversation with Ha Na. Basically, she helped Rainbow Taxi to get Kim Do Ki get inside of prison where their current motive was in. She used her position, definitely, on that. I was super excited from the previous season because of this finale that Ha Na joined the rainbow taxi crew only to end up being disappointed that she's nowhere to be found in the 2nd season. It would have been more amazing if the crew gained someone as cool as Ha Na, right? Anyways, there's nothing we can do much about it now. Just glad that they at least 'fairly' exited Esom's character like that.

Goodbye Twenty-Five, Twenty-One (Truly One Of The Best Kdrama) HIGHLY RECOMMENDED!


I just finished Twenty Five, Twenty One kdrama and I still cannot move on from it! You know, I'll be very honest... I've never been moved by a Kdrama for a long time now and I was thinking of throwing this hobby of watching Kdrama because it's taking so much of my time when there's not much that strike to my heart anymore. But this drama.. Twenty-Five, Twenty-One is proving me wrong.. there is still a good written Kdrama that will shake my world such as this one. Gosh... It's so good! From the story-line, the development of characters as well as the growth of each actors/actresses in this drama. Ugh. I am taking back when I said that Nam Joo Hyuk is not that good in acting! God knows now how amazed I am by him. Wow! It's remarkable how, as the story progressed, I've become tuned in with Nam Joo Hyuk's character Baek Yi Jin. I grew attached to him and I don't want to say goodbye to him yet! No!

Nam Joo Hyuk Is Starting To Have Feelings For Kim Tae Ri In Twenty-Five, Twenty-One Episode 4


As the story progresses with Baek Yi Jin (Nam Joo Hyuk) struggling yet adjusting to his new lifestyle, it's actually becoming evident how he's being dependent on Na Hee Do (Kim Tae Ri) with regards to being his anchor. To be honest, if I were to compare it with reality, it's really good to have that someone you can open up fully about your problems without any inhibitions. I actually have an experience of being so closed off with my struggles and feelings that it's eating me wholly and it's something that's not really good for my mental health. So when that someone came to my life and served as my anchor, someone that has no malice nor judgment, someone that's actually genuine to help me with my life, it felt like my life struggles lightened up. And it felt like I really have that someone that will stay by my side through it all for the rest of my life. That is why I really am grateful and also trying my best to return the favor, not because he asked for it but because I want to make him feel the way he makes me feel when he's helping me out. Uhhh.. nope we're not lovers or anything... we're just really true friends that care for each other. That's the difference between me and Baek Yi Jin.

WJSN's Bona Is Kim Tae Ri's Internet Buddy In Twenty-Five, Twenty-One Episode 3

This episode 3 of Twenty-Five, Twenty-One really tugged my heartstrings. So many scenes really hit close to home. 

First, the part where Na Hee Do (Kim Tae Ri) goes all out and dangerously for Baek Yi Jin (Nam Joo Hyuk) to meet his father. I get it that she made a wrong assumption about the old man looking for Yi Jin and regretted it. But the fact that she did that only because she wanted to protect him and corrected her wrong doings later just proved how much she treasures him and her promise to be happy together. Yi Jin also feels the same way about her, it's evident to how he treats her too.  Although the last part where he failed to comfort Hee Do, he just did that because she knew how pure-hearted Hee Do is that she wouldn't say anything wrong to anyone in her right mind so he just couldn't obliged to her request to say. He just knew that she was in an emotional state that even though they're important to each other, he wouldn't pamper her nor lie to her just so she could comfort her hurt feelings. However, I wouldn't lie that I got really hurt at that part for Hee Do. There really are times when we need to feel that there is someone by our side during the hard times and despite Yi Jin failing to do so.... there is Hee Do's 'internet friend' to comfort her.

Kim Tae Ri Cheers Up Nam Joo Hyuk After Witnessing Him At His Lowest Point In Twenty-Five, Twenty-One Episode 2

Somehow this drama gives off a vibe just like Police University wherein the female lead is the one comforting/supporting the male lead and then later on their relationship would evolve in which the female lead would also start relying on the male lead after he regains some confidence and strength. Then this give and take relationship would then bloom into a couple relationship with them relying on each other. Hmmm... I could already sense it, yep yep.. but who knows what might happen along the way, I'm still here for surprises. Police University is all about realizing and achieving one's dreams too which is why I find the two male lead characters from Police University and Twenty-Five, Twenty-One similar on that matter, they just differ in their life circumstances or situation.

Nam Joo Hyuk Encourages Kim Tae Ri To Continue Protecting Her Dreams In Twenty Five, Twenty One Episode 1


It's been a while since I've hooked myself to some Korean drama series since Jirisan so I'm glad to tell everyone that I finally found a new interesting one again to watch and react to every week, it's none other than Twenty-Five Twenty-One starring Nam Joo Hyuk and Kim Tae Ri.

I watched first the pilot episode before reading the synopsis of the drama from asianwiki, so unconsciously wanting the story to incline more to two friends finding each other in the midst of their own difficulties and thrive rather than them developing romantic feelings as the story develops. I think it's rare to see such story but I guess people aren't attracted to such dramas if it won't involve romance between the leads and writers, production in totality, wouldn't want their work to flop at all. But wouldn't it be fulfilling to create such without making their viewers bored, by using their creativity efficiently to add to their project.

Ju Ji Hoon Discovers The Scary Truth Behind The Death Of Hikers In Jirisan Episide 3

Daaaaaang!!! I guess with this episode, 1 mystery has been solved. The reason behind the killings happening inside Jiri mountain were all because of a serial killer as per analysis of Hyun Jo and not something supernatural. It's true, that the scariest beings are not those we cannot see but those we can see, and in this case, it's humankind. 

We got to know Hyun Jo's past as a soldier too and the time when he started seeing the killings happening inside the mountain. Hmm... perhaps it's because he disturbed the stack of stones while he was approaching his co-soldier Kim in danger at that time? Maybe the mountain started communicating with him since then, to discover and stop the killings. Hmmm... the mountain wanted to protect its people too. Ain't that fascinating?

Ju Ji Hoon Is The One Giving Jun Ji Hyun Signals In Jirisan Episode 2

Waaait! What the hell is happening? I really thought that the suspicious person that's loitering around Jirisan is a mountain spirit, but I guess it's not the case? Who was that at the end? At first, I'm guessing it's the chief. The face of the suspicious person was shown but I couldn't really tell if it's him or not. He became suspicious to me because of the yellow ribbons with blood on it discovered by Seo Yi Gang. Hmmm... But... when I examined the face at the end once again, I think it's Hyun Jo. His body is constrained in the hospital due to coma, but his spirit is wandering around? And the reason why Yi Gang asked Lee Da Won (Go Min Si) to point the traditional marker to Haedong Ranger Station is because she has a hunch that the one giving her signals was Hyun Jo? Come to think of it, Hyun Jo and Yi Gang shared the secret about this traditional marker, and Yi Gang also knew about Hyun Jo's special ability to find someone that's missing. Perhaps Yi Gang considered Hyun Jo to be the on that's giving her signals through the traditional marker. That makes more sense, right? Hmmm...

Jun Ji Hyun Is Passionate To Find Out The Mystery Behind Mount Jiri In Jirisan Episode 1


Jirisan starring Jun Ji Hyun and Ju Ji Hoon started airing last night, October 23. It's not just an ordinary drama that we're watching, it has a different kind of flavor that evaded the mainstream romcom nor historical romance genres that most of the on-going dramas today are centered about. Jirisan is special because aside it bringing in action, mystey and suspense, it's also tvN's 15th year anniversary project which only explains why they allotted a big budget of 32 billion won or 27.4 million dollars for it. It exceeds Vincenzo's budget of 20 billion won or 18 million dollars. And if it has a budget then it means good production, cinematography, videography, star studded cast and so on and so forth. After watching just only the first episode of it, all the good things that I've mentioned became really evident in this drama and I think this is officially the newest craze that I'll be looking forward and react to every week. Yassss!

There Is No Winner In Revenge | The Penthouse 3 Finale Episode

Gosh! I have so many feelings to express after I watched this finale of The Penthouse 3. Like what I have been telling in my previous blog entries for this whole saga of The Penthouse, there really is no winner in this war of revenge. My prediction was right, that all 3 queens will die in the end. Not only them but those powerful people who were greedy in general like The Penthouse king Joo Dan Tae and the envious and Penthouse king wannabe Ha Eun Cheol.

Jin Young Promised To Find The Real Culprit Behind The Gambling Site To Krystal In Police University Episode 7


The plot is getting more and more interesting! At this point, the suspect and the accomplices behind the illegal gambling website could be anyone. As of now, the accomplice is pointing at Park Cheol Jin. But what's weird about is that, why would he risk his life in telling Dong Man that the culprit behind the website is at Police University? Was everything just an act? Well maybe, now that he's at Korean National Police University, the culprit could be really him after all. Lol But of course, I still am not gonna close this case yet until a precise and stronger evidence come to light. Because, I don't want to end up accussing such nice people again like professor Kwon who is starting to get a close friendship with Dong Man!

Uhm Ki Joon's Downfall: Dying Along With The Fruit Of His Hardwork In The Penthouse 3 Episode 12

It took me a while to react something about Joo Dan Tae's downfall. Whew! But it's better late than never, right? Don't worry guys, I have not forgotten about it. I was just busy with some other things but still, I will always find time to react on Kdramas I'm watching especially Penthouse. 


Anyways for episode 12, wow I'm blown away. I have so many thoughts about it. Hmmm.. if I'll be very honest, I didn't feel any pity for Joo Dan Tae dying, falling from the penthouse floor and see everything that he worked hard for collapses (even though he's already unconsciously dead) before his eyes. I think that scene was majestic though. Joo Dan Tae till the very end, gave his all to fight for what he believed is his. That really summarizes how his persistence placed him on top as well as how it ended his life. Yayks. That trait of a man is admirable really, only if he uses it by not stepping on other people just to get on top. Sigh

Jin Young Disappoints Krystal Which Leads To Choo Yeong Woo's Confession To Her | Police University Episode 6

Now this drama really is something! I honestly thought that after episode 5, the focus would begin to swirl down to only Kang Hee and Sun Ho's relationship but I was proven wrong with what happened in episode 6. Not that I dislike the exposure of Kang Hee and Sun Ho's sweet developing moments, in fact, I love it so much. It's just that, since their intimacy progresses quickly, I begun to worry that the main focus would only be them and the actions/missions would be overshadowed but I was wrong! Wah! As expected of a Cha Tae Hyun's drama, it does not disappoint or perhaps it's still early to comment this? Still, I love that it has so much to offer, adding spices here and there for each episode airing every week. I got a small attention span, if I find something boring, I really drop the drama along the way. But I guess that won't be the case with Police University with how they handle this episode 6.
