Team Dramabeans: What we’re watching (March 29, 2025)
My Dearest Nemesis: Lackluster would be how I describe this drama, The use of the grandmother as a terrible no good very bad trauma reason fell flat. This drama had the ability to be delightful. It was not. There were parts that were fine and that was it. What a shame.
Hyper Knife: This continues to be such fun. It is clear Dr. C is trying to protect Se Ok, but her arrogance prevents her from seeing it. He may also be a murderer or he may not be a murderer, but he understands her crazy can only work but so far. He seems to have been the catalyst for her thinking murder was okay, I wonder if he knows that? PEB continues to be delightful, without overacting. I love that.
Buried Hearts: This continues to be dumb. The Makjang is makjanging. It is still possible fauxcest, but it isn’t looking good or them. Good. Ha. I don’t have hope for that though, she is the FL. A DNA test would solve this, but then how would the writer makjang with the best. Fathers who are not fathers, step-fathers who might be fathers. Memories making a comeback. After this week, we still have 4 episodes, what will the writer think of next. Then we have Seon Wu needing to be the heir because he has the right genitalia, not at all because he is in anyway qualified. Gotta love male primogeniture.
Undercover High School: OMG, I am so happy the angst I expected didn’t happen. I. laughed so hard in the first half of the episode. I am sad the romance has still taken a back seat. We are now into nonsense territory, but sadly only one more episode to go.
When life gives you tangerines: EPIC. I am so glad this was done in 4s, I wish it had been in the traditional format, but watching this in one drop would have been too too much. I SOBBBBBBED in these episodes. However, this has been a spectacular show and kudos to all involved. A wonderful, delightful, well thought out story about mothers and daughters, and the power of love through generations. This is the only way to do first loves, the only way.
The Art of Negotiation: I am looking forward to the next new M&A and crisis. I think a procedural format works really well for this show.
The Potato Lab: My happy drama: I am very much looking forward to this, this weekend.
