[Recap] Saturday Night Live Korea, Episode 1 – Poking Fun at Politics

“Saturday Night Live (SNL) Korea” finally aired its inaugural episode last weekend, and I have to admit I was more than ecstatic to see my favorite U.S. comedy show air in Korea. It did a pretty good job of living up to the “SNL” name with a lot of political/cultural parodies. Kim Joo Hyuk also did a flawless job of running the show live.

JBarky’s “Padam Padam” [Recap] Episode 2: Beating Up Angels

The hallmark of a great drama is when you see the main character beat up his guardian angel, and also when you get to see a guardian angel beat up the protagonist that he is supposed to protect. Anyhooters, last week we ended off with Kangchil dying. After he died though, he seemed to warp past time back to the shower scene with his guardian angel, Gooksu. Kangchil is in awe/shock/horror because he doesn’t know what the hell is going on, and he is trying to tell Gooksu about his situation!

[MSD: Memorable Scene of the Day] Glorious Jane: Episode 17

For the past 16 episodes, viewers were left with the thought that nothing can rain on “optimist” Jae In’s parade. She’s developed into the sweetest character who puts others before herself. However, yesterday’s episode left viewers with the possible thought that Jae In might give herself to the dark side.

JBarky’s "Padam Padam" [Recap] Episode 1: I Am Hooked

For a while now I’ve been looking for a show that I really wanted to recap. I have finally found that show with “Padam Padam.” In a nutshell, this show is a mix of Charles Dickens “A Christmas Carol,” the film Family Man, and It’s a Wonderful Life with a Korean twist.

By Korean twist I mean, all the profanity, protagonist kicking guardian angel, guardian angel beating the crap out of the protagonist, female lead flipping a bird, and whatnot. (Sounds interesting no? The show got me hooked!)
