Binged the #jdrama SAI over the weekend. It was definitely one of the most eery and quietly creepy things I’ve watched in a long time. Highly recommended if you’re a fan of Japanese horror/psychological thrillers. Bonus points for it not being particularly gory. #asiandramas #netflix #horror

I love when someone posts something ridiculous in the Reddit #kdrama sub, gets intelligent pushback in the comments, and rather than engage thoughtfully, they double down on their ridiculousness and accuse people of shaming them or being too logical-minded. 😂 www.reddit.com/r/kdramas/s/...

Straight to Hell is so good! It’s based on the life of Kazuko Hosoki, Japan's most famous/infamous TV fortune-teller. She claws her way to power in post-war Japan only to then make some questionable choices with that power. I love the OST too! #jdrama #kdrama #netflix

Now we’ve got someone in the r/kdramas sub defending their preference to watch all kdramas at 2x speed. “I feel like in Asian series actions and dialogues happen so slowly that 2x feels normal to me.” 🙄 Istg, this is the weirdest f*cking reddit group www.reddit.com/r/kdramas/s/... #kdrama #reddit

Bad Bunny’s half time show was one of the best things I’ve ever watched on live TV.

Day 2: Fav actress discovered in 2025 Hands down, Kim You Jung. Her performance in #DearX is truly something for the ages. She’s absolutely amazing in it and probably gives one of the most nuanced and realistic portrayals of a sociopath in TV/movie history. #EYDC2025 #kdrama

What in the heck is going on with #Viki? They took away the comments section for every show and movie. Now members have no way to communicate amongst each other about updates to release schedules, thoughts or questions about episodes, etc. I loved this feature of Viki and now it’s gone. 😢 #kdrama

Just finished #AsYouStoodBy. I rarely binge watch an entire show in a day, but here we are. I really enjoyed it, even though many parts broke my heart. I was especially impressed by Lee Mu-Saeng’s portrayal of Mr. Jin. And Jang Seung-Jo played the hell out of his duel roles, wow. #kdrama

Anyone else watching #kdrama #TheManipulated? The writer of this show also wrote all 3 seasons of #TaxiDriver. So it should be good! I also love D.O. and JCW!

Day 1: Stunning Costume It’s been a few years since I watched #CrashLandingOnYou and I still can’t get Seo Dan’s (played by Seo Ji Hye) wardrobe out of my mind! So classy and luxe. Runner up goes to Deok Mi (Park Min Young) in Her Private Life! #dramajoychallenge #kdrama

Omg look at this berry tart from Paris Baguette! Fellow #kdrama friends, you’ve probably seen some of their product placements in k-dramas over the years. If you have a PB bakery location near you, GO! Everything I’ve tried so far has been amazing!

Day 17: Mobster If you haven’t seen the movie, The Dude in Me, you have to put it on your watchlist. Park Sung Woong and Jin Young hit their portrayal of mob boss Jang Pan Soo out of the park. It is genuinely one of the funniest Korean movies I’ve ever seen. #kdrama #DramaJobChallenge

Day 12: Detective/Police Officer This one was an easy pick for me! Det. Song Ha Young (played by Kim Nam Gil) in Through The Darkness. His passion for criminal profiling/behavioral analysis and bringing justice to victims was so palpable throughout the whole series! #kdrama #DramaJobChallenge

Day 8: Cafe/restaurant owner I don’t think it’s possible to watch the #bl #TheEighthSense without coming away with a deep love for the relationship Ji Hyun has with the owner of the restaurant he works at. Played by Jung Seo In, his boss is one of my favorite characters! #kdrama #DramaJobChallenge

Day 6: Chef Anyone else here a fan of the #bl To My Star? Kim Kang Min’s portrayal of Han Ji Woo, a chef who’s trying to find his professional stride, is one of the aspects of this show that I enjoyed (apart from the complicated relationship between the two leads)! #kdrama #DramaJobChallenge

Day 5: Athlete Im Si Wan’s character from #RunOn. I loved how they weaved his athletic journey throughout the storyline. He was definitely a “green flag” kdrama guy, too. Lastly, this show was very dialogue heavy, giving it an Aaron Sorkin-esque feel at times lol. #kdrama #DramaJobChallenge

Day 4: Musician I loved Oh Jung Se’s down-on-his-luck portrayal of a musician in Uncle! This show made me cry and laugh so much. I loved the relationship between his character and his little nephew! #kdrama #dramajobchallenge

Day 1: Lawyer/Judge I’m going with Judge Sim Eun Seok (played by the legendary Kim Hye Soo) from Juvenile Justice. That role was made for Kim Hye Soo; no one else could have portrayed Judge Sim quite like she did! If you haven’t watched the show, I highly recommend it! #kdrama #dramajobchallenge

Just found out an important #FedEx shipment from #SouthKorea might be heavily delayed or even cancelled and sent back despite all duties being prepaid. 😡 The SK small biz owner and I did everything by the book (👇) and it still doesn’t work. At this point, International 🌏→ US 🇺🇸#shipping is DEAD. ☠️🪦

Quick question to any #nurses out there…do hospital nurses sometimes wear crop tops? Cause my family member’s nurse was wearing one today. She was great, very professional and we loved her, but I was a little surprised to see a nurse wearing one… #healthcare #nursing #hospitals

Ashley Harvard @pink-leninade.bsky.social · 05/08/2025

One of the first things I asked my family member when I visited them in their hospital room today was “Where’s the humidifier?! Do you want me to bring you one tomorrow?” I’ve clearly been watching too many #kdramas! 😂

For anyone watching #Trigger who’s also seen BL #TheEighthSense, in ep10 around the 20:40 mark is the actress (Jung Seo In) who played the owner of the small restaurant that ML Ji Hyeon worked at!

I feel a bit guilty for falling behind with the #KDrama #DreamDramaChallenge this week! I’m in full time caregiver mode helping a family member prep for surgery on Monday.

#DreamDramaChallenge Day 7: Main OST Artist Definitely going with SHAUN. I loved his song “More Than Words” from Dinner Mate’s OST (it’s one of my absolute favorite OST songs ever, in fact). He has a beautifully soulful voice and I love his lyrics. He’s super cute too 😍 #CreateYourDrama #KDrama

#DreamDramaChallenge Days 5-6: Supporting F+M Actors I feel like Kim Hye Eun (Encounter, Family By Choice) and Jung Sung Il (The Glory, Our Blues) would have good supporting lead energy! And I can see them having a second lead romantic spark (maybe enemies to lovers? 🤭)… #CreateYourDrama #KDrama

#DreamDramaChallenge Days 3-4: FL+ML It’s so hard to choose! But I’m going with Jang Na Ra (Good Partner, Go Back Couple) and Ju Ji Hoon (Trauma Code, Jirisan). Both are exceptional actors and I’d love to see them lead in a romantic comedy that leans more sexy than cute. #CreateYourDrama #KDrama

Drama Challenge Day 2: Director Park Joon Hwa! He’s directed some of my favs including Touch Your Heart (my #1 comfort show!), Because This is My First Life and What’s Wrong With Secretary Kim. He knows how to do romance mixed w/ slice of life and humor! #createyourdrama #kdrama #dramachallenge

Drama Challenge: Writer I’m going w/ Kim Hye Young (No Gain, No Love, Her Private Life) + Choi Soo Young (Love to Hate You, Cunning Single Lady). Both know how to write strong, layered FLs - and MLs who are completely turned on (and not scared) by them! #createyourdrama #kdrama #dramachallenge

Has anyone seen the #cdrama version of Marry My Husband, titled Her Trajectory, on Viki? It seems to take some deviations from the Korean and Japanese versions from what I’ve read about it.

Such a fascinating piece by @byrei.ink. It’s a must read!

I’m really liking the #jdrama version of #marrymyhusband so far! I’m only a few mins into ep 3. But even though it’s a bit less dramatic than the #kdrama version, I still really like the show’s energy and the FL’s personal growth and confidence arc a lot - it feels very natural and relatable.

Mate, if you’re going to make these kinds of tenuous (at best) allegations, then show some legit evidence. Surely something this illegal and scandalous would be reported on by some media outlet? #kdrama

I knew KOPIKO and Subway were up to no good! 😂😂😂 But lbh, even if this allegation is true, I say the storylines still slap! So keep up the bribes! (Okay, actually being serious - if you’re making this kind of claim, you need to show legit evidence. I prefer truth, not conspiracy theories.)

I’ve never been big on animated stuff (even as a little kid) but K-Pop Demon Hunters was surprisingly wonderful! The song “Free” (duet w/ Rumi & Jinu) is freaking gorgeous —the lyrics honestly made me tear up a little. 🥹 #Kpop #kdrama #Music #Netflix #KpopDemonHunters

My mom just finished Tell Me That You Love Me (#Hulu) and absolutely adored it. I watched it last year and thought she wouldn’t like it because it’s a quiet and slow burn kinda show (she prefers #kdramas with street fighting, silly meet-cutes or over the top drama 🤭). We both give it a 10/10!
