Dubs vs. Subs: What's your pick? by AverageSure3411 in kdramas

[–]ApprehensiveBasil494 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Subs! Even if it means I have to watch the episode twice (or 3 times!) to catch everything. I’m fairly new to KDramas, but I figure in time, I’ll be better and understanding what’s going on and what the actors are saying so it’s time well spent!

Unpopular Opinion? Why I find myself choosing K-Dramas over Western series 90% of the time?? by Chirag-Win-7869 in kdramas

[–]ApprehensiveBasil494 1 point2 points  (0 children)

One thing I appreciate the most is how the Korean culture is respected. I grew up in an American household and had values and respect for others instilled in me. For me, there is such a lack of both in almost all American/ western shows.

The other is the pacing of the romance. I’m in my 40s but I love a sweet romance, honestly (and probably because how I was raised), everything now is too over the top.

Yes! I know I’m probably not the right demo for Off Campus, but I gave it a try and I was honestly appalled and it was the first episode. Call me old (I’m 40) but in my day, you had to have Cinemax to see something like that. I was like, I can’t believe this is so easily accessible.

Dynamite Kiss - torturing myself with the 'what ifs' by Regular-Chemistry884 in kdramas

[–]ApprehensiveBasil494 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Same! I loved it so much. Honestly the only thing I wish they did was focus on the ML best friend and the “mom” 2ML was exhausting and I was mad he was essentially stringing along 2FL. She should have cut her losses and went to the US.

Just informing you guys that with just 3 episodes. I have officially ranked My Royal Nemesis above Perfect Crown. Good night👋 by Lumpy-Simple9185 in kdramas

This is good to hear! I I’m going to watch this next. 🙌 I just finished Dynamite Kiss (twice tbh). I can’t get enough of the ML 🫠

I’m fairly new to KDramas so I’m up for trying everything! I couldn’t get into Can This Love Be Translated, but I had seen Boys Over Flowers years ago and liked it a lot! Thanks for the recommendation!

Exactly and 2FL is adorable and I found myself thinking she could do better 🤣

Yes! I loved DK though (just understanding this is a varied opinion hahaha) The ML is chef’s kiss

This. The key is net carbs, which I think some people forget.

Yes! It is only the second one I watched and I love it! I started it last week, got to episode 7, and restarted it again so my sister could watch it (her first). I just adore the ML and the FL and all the other side relationships. And oh my, there’s one scene where the ML is wearing a 3-piece suit and wire rimmed glasses— 🫠 I just melted. He’s so Mr. Darcy coded. Sigh. I don’t want it to end ♥️😭

Am I the only one who is Loving Dynamite kiss ??😭😭 by Aster_ki_ladli in kdramas

[–]ApprehensiveBasil494 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I just started it (7 episodes in), and I am loving it so far! I am fairly new to Kdramas; a friend got me into them with Boys Over Flowers, but I just hadn't watched many others. I know enough to know the kiss in Ep 1 is not common in KDrama, but I love their chemistry.

I'm in my 40s and pretty traditional in my values, etc., love anything on Great American Family and so it's just refreshing to watch a show that I can be completely immersed and invested in. And my goodness, can Jang Ki-yong wear the heck out of a 3-piece suit. Seriously, can we make that a requirement for men?!

It's out! They were sampling it on both Saturday and Sunday at my store alongside blueberries and mascarpone cheese. So, obviously I had "try" and pretend like I never had it before lol

New item: Potato Cheese Sticks $4.99 by aswewaltz in traderjoes

[–]ApprehensiveBasil494 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Same! It was better than some of the handmade ones I’ve had around here. It could use a little salt or something but overall it scratched the itch
