March Dramas '21 — wine and a kdrama

Despite having a lot to watch, I watched very little. I’ll be happy when this round of airing dramas ends, too many dramas to keep up with and too many dramas to keep dodging spoilers. I am not good with airing dramas, especially with the year I’ve had.

Completed

Nishiogikubo Mitsuboshi Youshudou - 西荻窪三ツ星洋酒堂: This was a fine little drama. Nothing special, I found the last half much better than the first. In the end it’s a small little drama that was an easy watch.
The Silenced - 경성학교: 사라진 소녀들: I have gotten into the habit of watching movies over dramas, and I’ve been going through my list of wanting to watch ones. I had kept seeing this on MDL because their search is absolutely terrible, and when we were doing our Seo Ye Ji episode on the podcast if you searched her name, this movie came up before her. I don’t know why either. She’s not in it. It was …ok. Honestly would have been fine never watching this, but it was a random night watch so what can you do. The twist is weird, and the story is a little funky. Tension doesn’t really work either, and for it being in the horror category it definitely is not.
Dear Friend - 령: This is an older movie, but I still really enjoyed it. Another on my list for a while, I stumbled upon it and had to watch it.
Little Big Women - 孤味: This was just recently released on Netflix and I thought it looked interesting and gave it a chance. I really enjoyed it. The story follows a wife and daughters after their father dies and their grief, and how they are dealing with it based on their different relationships they had with the father.
The Wicked - 마녀: You know that site, Asian Crush? I always think it’s not a legal site, but I guess it is possible that is. I don’t know. I found out that they had an app when I was setting up a new Roku and figured I would try it out since they have things for free with ads. This movie was painfully terrible and slow and boring and I wish I had never watched it.

Currently Watching

Beyond Evil - 괴물: Currently my favorite drama I’m watching this month. I’m slightly behind, but its been consistently great.
Mouse - 마우스: I really wish that it kept up the greatness that was its first episode. It’s a fine drama, but pretty big let down after watching what it could be.
Sisyphus the Myth - 시지프스: The Myth: I honestly don’t know why I’m still watching this drama. I’m behind (like all the other dramas), but I will watch most dramas before this one.
Vincenzo - 빈센조: The humor is hard to get through, but when it gets dark, it gets dark and I am in love with crazy Taec.
13 - サーティーン: I started this randomly yesterday and am halfway through the series. It’s only four episodes, so I should be done with it today/tomorrow. Jdramas will always win me over, and I love to binge. I think I’m honestly watching this more because I was overwhelmed with all the other things I’m watching. This is a remake of the BBC show, Thirteen, but I’ve never seen it so I can’t tell you how it compares.
Voice 1 - 보이스: I’m sorry Voice. I really, truly, am. It keeps being pushed to the bottom of the watching pile but I am determined to keep it in my currently watching and not move it to on-hold so I will be able to finish the season before Voice 4 premieres (in June).

New Dramas/Movies
I doubt I’ll actually get to these, probably focus on Deluxe Taxi and Dark Hole. Look out for the premiere posts for more information and what I think of the teasers so far.
