It Got Better

So, I loved the first season and watched this one soon after. On ther first episode, we can see that some time has passed since the first one's events and the dynamics among the Golden Time Team is different - we can also see some new faces. At first, I thought I wouldn't like it, it felt too different somehow... boy, was I wrong. On the second episode I was already sold and by the third I was completely OBSESSED!

This here, all the interections in the team is what I was looking for and did not know. Do Kang Woo (Lee Jin Wook) won my heart and the CHEMISTRY with Kang Kwon Joon (Lee Ha Na) is AMAZING. (Mind you that this drama does not have any romance whatsoever, BUT, in my head, they kind of fell in love and I ship them hard lol)

The serial killer - following the awesomeness from the first season - is again interesting. Kwon Yool did an incredible job. His character really got on my nerves and we still need some answers (season 3, here I come).

And the pacing, I was on the edge of my seat the whole time! It was intriguing, thrilling and emotional at the same time. The "side cases" were all of important themes - sad, cruel, but so so important!

Voice is an amazing drama, the concept is great and it has become one of my favorites! Kang Kwon Joon (Lee Ha Na) is still my queen, her character is everything to me <3

> I'm starting season 3 ASAP!! I NEED ANSWERS!

Rainbow Taxi to the rescue ❤

I had to write about this one because, oh boy, for me, it was pure perfection. Taxi Driver is INTENSE. I was moved by the cases, by the characters, by EVERYTHING, since the first episode and it only got better and better. I have no words to describe all that this drama meant to me...

First, let me just say this, it is SO MUCH MORE than just an action drama. Taxi Driver brings real stories, things so horrible it's hard to believe they really happened, so the cases are all about making the criminals pay - no matter how "protected" by power/money/status they are. And THEN they give voice to the victims - listening, protecting and helping them. This is so powerful. The message is clear: if you are a victim, stay strong. Don't break. Speak up. Look for help. You are not alone. You do not have to go through it alone. Call for help. Report. / And in the end of each episode they display the numbers of crime report lines, helplines and listening services in Korea.

The cast is AMAZING - I loved everyone in this show, so many great actors/actresses. The characters are captivating and the Rainbow Taxi Squad will be in my heart forever ❤

If you are looking for romance, this drama is not for you. But, if you are in the mood for a badass squad and teamwork , great action, some thriller, crimes and plots that will make you feel A LOT - from hate to love, to sadness, to hate again and so on - this one is definitely for you.

My eyes, ears and heart are happy ❤

This drama is so truly beautiful that it took my breath away. It is extremely visual, the scenes are like moving paintings, every detail is perfect. We get to see different angles, a lot of camera movement, close takes and amazing shots - all that together with the excellent acting from the cast and the perfect soundtrack got me mesmerized. So yes, this is definitely one of the most beautiful dramas I have ever seen. It is not the work of only a few, and it is not done without love and effort, so kudos to the entire The King’s Affection crew.

I loved the cast, a great team that delivered wonderful acting all the way. Park Eu Bin is amazing and we can see the extent of her talent here. She’s always enchanting with her acting skills and this time was no different. My KING slayed.

The soundtrack is, I know I’m repeating myself here, beautiful. I mean, I cannot stop listening to the songs, even the ones that are instrumentals. All of the songs make me feel happy, sad, dreamy and hopeful at the same time.

I liked the plot, I absolutely LOVED the gender approach here and the non-toxic relationships - hello, there were a lot of one-sided “loves” and just mature reactions on how to deal with these feelings, let’s appreciate it. Pure gold . Plus, there were a lot of valuable messages that are timeless. In general, it is a sad story, but with a lot of cute and funny moments to level it all. The pace was on point for me - it got me on the edge of my seat sometimes, buti it also gave me time to breathe and dream. I cried, my heart ached, but I also laughed, I swooned and my heart was happy and warm by the end of it. BALANCE, BITCHES.

So, to sum up my review: IT WAS SO DAMN WORTH IT.
The King's Affection has my heart and it became one of my favorite dramas.
I will definitely rewatch it someday.

My heart is happy ❤

I finished this drama for the 1st time (yeah, because there will be 2nd and 3thrd times FOR SURE) last week, but the heartwarming feeling still lingers in me. This here is a true GEM. Everything about "Thirty But Seventeen" is perfection - the plot, the cast (THE ACTING OH MY), the songs, the direction of the scenes, I mean EVERYTHING.

The thing I love the most is the fact that it goes from comedy to drama, from laughing to crying in smooth transitions that give a beautiful balance to the story. You will have a goofy smile on your face most of the times, but you will also have your heart suffering a little in between. Be prepared to deal with a lot of emotions and to love the characters deeply.

What I also love, is the fact that we don't have a villain, everyone is just trying to live their lives the best they can, and as LIFE happens, each character deals with things their own way. The story gives us hope, it is healing, pure and fresh.

The characters are ADORABLE and PRECIOUS - all of them. The development is beautiful and we can see them bloom. The romance is the cutest thing and it gave me butterflies. This unique little family stole my heart. Did I mention they are freaking adorable already?

So yeah, be happy, just press play and enjoy.

And as Yoochan would say:

DON'T THINK, FEEL! ❤
