The K2 - Review

 
    The K2 is a drama about a military man, who has been removed from his position on false accusations and is now in hiding. His already damned fate takes another bitter turn when he witnesses a presidential candidate in a not so decent setting, which leads him to be on the run again. This drama is also about a girl who has spent most of her life in captivity because she is the illegitimate daughter of a politician. The plot is very interesting and deep, with themes that are relevant to not just Korean society but any place that is rotting with corruption. One of the themes that appealed to me, the most, was that every person is both a lamb and a wolf, and the position changes based on their circumstances.
   
     I just finished watching this drama and I am a little disappointed. It is a much loved drama and I thought it would be great and it was in the beginning, but as the episodes go by it becomes a little annoying. The plot is soooooooooo good and the mind games were very entertaining but there was very little character development, actually more then having no character development it was more like they had no consistency. I wish I could explain this.

Best Moment: When the male lead first falls in love with the translator. (This would have been a better story I think)

Worst Moment: The scene where the female lead dances with a packet of Ramen, I mean why????

Queen of Mystery - Season 2 (Review)

http://asianwiki.com/Queen_of_Mystery_2 I can't even begin to talk about how happy I am to see our beloved Ahjumma out and about solving cases, poking her nose in places she shouldn't be. I really really loved the show the first time around. As it actually made me feel fear to the extent that I wanted to stop watching, but the suspense was so strong that I had no other choice but to continue. Her knack for attracting serial killers to her neighborhood, her nosy mother in law, her personal investigation team made up of other Ahjummas and police officials along with he talent for ruining any cuisine, had been my private moments of excitement, joy and fear. Now she is back and trying to become a police officer while solving cases. Even though I still love her and the show, and am one the edge every time an episode ends but I must say that they have not reached the same level of intrigue this time. May be they set the bar too high? Or I expected too much. Do not get me wro...

Bride of The Water God - Review (K drama)

     The drama is about a deity who is almost all powerful but needs to find some stones on earth so he can be the king of all deities. He lands on earth looses his powers and meets a psychiatrist, who turns out to be his servant. Now he needs to gather the stones and go back to claim his throne. But wait! For some mysterious reason he lost all his powers, his map and deities who were supposed to hand over the stones to him- avoid him.      I will start with the good stuff, the actors were cool, they did an awesome job, the scenery was beautiful and the beginning was quite hopeful (In terms of story development).  I read somewhere that the land of water was actually shot in an Indian Mahal, so kudos to the production team for making that happen. There were many highs and lows in the plot that kept you hooked. You could feel the hard work everyone put in the project, the graphics were really cool and characters were likable.      I...

Deadman Wonderland- Why It Deserves A Second Season

Deadman Wonderland: Ganta I saw an article online and I can't understand why this anime is getting so much hate. I personally loved it. From what I understand from the article and the comments people were disappointed with the ending of the manga, and how the anime does not follow the same path as the manga. I don't think these are reasons why you should hate an anime. (but to all their own) The anime is about a boy named Ganta who gets framed for killing his entire class. Being the only one who knows the unbelievable truth about how his friends died and not being able to defend himself, he is sent to prison on a death sentence. The prison is privately run facility that makes its prisoners play dangerous survival games for entertainment. He is surrounded by bloodthirsty inmates with a collar around his neck that is slowly killing him. While all he can think of is getting back at the Red Man who killed his friends and brought him to this hell. That's basically the g...
