The Secret Angel
The Secret Angel/ 秘密天使 / Mìmì tiānshǐ ** (Korean-Chinese colab)
web drama 10 episodes.
Interesting tale. Those 100 days flew by on speedy angel wings too!, Could be the reason I thought it seemed a little too short. I do hope I get to see more from the actors in this drama sometime soon. Favorite scene(s): The angel wings attack.. which was no more then a few light pounds on the death agent's chest.

Two Weddings And a Funeral
Two Weddings And a Funeral/ 두 번의 결혼식과 한 번의 장례식/ Du Bunui Gyulhonsikgwa Han Bunui Jangryesik ** (Korean)
Movie 106mins
Good story. I could somehow sympathize with Min-soo's 'cowardly' fright at being found out. Something like that, which could become quickly violent(and did) would be difficult to want to step into the limelight for. A bit of guy-n-guy and girl-n-girl smooching and underwear moments. There is also a Tragically sad/angry moment in this movie. Favorite scene(s): discovery of co-'bottom' bed splat and Sweet Tina's invite to be a supporting hiding place whenever it was needed.
A closeted gay doctor, Min-Soo, Trying to get out of his parent's arrangements, and a coworker, Hyo-Jin, who wants, badly, to adopt a young child, and needs a marriage license to do so... agrees to a fake marriage. Hyo-Jin and her girlfriend, choosing to live across the hall, just in case they are needed together to keep up appearances.

Antique
Antique/ 서양골동양과자점 엔티크/ Sayangkoldong Yangkwajajeom Aentikeu **\ (Korean)
Movie 109 mins
Good story. There are a few suggestive and underwear scenes in this movie. As argumentative and alluring as Jin-Hyuk and Sun-Woo are, throughout the film, their mutual chemistry/bond was perfectly strong. It did rather have a creepy overtone to the whole, concerning the news broadcasts but it kept the plot moving along even as the shop dealt with the day-to-day mishaps and foibles.
A boy is kidnapped, and mysteriously reappears two months later with little to no conscience memory of the time. Having grown, he opens a cake shop, hiring a school classmate for patisserie who studied in Paris.. and with his own set of trouble and quirks. Then comes along an ex-lightweight boxer with a love for the cakes created by Sun woo. And the clumsy 'bodyguard' who somehow finds his place in the bakery.
And somewhere out there, was a kidnapper and murderer of young boys, looking forward to another sweet bite.

Rather reminded me of another drama in general storyline. The girl looked the part of a tomboy and sounded too much like a girl, especially when singing. Felt like they had crammed a few too many predictable 'ohno!s'... made the ending seem weak. Favorite character(s): Kwon Ji Woo and his grandma.
Girl fails at classical music school in England, returns to South Korea and stays with her best bud for a time, for fear of her parent's angry reaction. As her longtime friend lacks confidence to stand on stage, despite his dreams of being on it, She goes with him to audition and they are both chosen for the next boy idol team called M2 Junior. People assumed the tomboy was male. She bounces several times off the arrogant lead of M2, and falls in mutual love. This is the start of trouble, as forces maneuver around them to dissolve the team before they could get far.

Good fun. I liked how well-organized the family was... calmly talking of plans, practice, complaining over the lack of meat, and little brother begging to be let in on it all, at the dinner table. Favorite scene(s): overwhelming smooches and the last-ditch rescue of big brother.

Once the sun goes down, the little family breaks out the dark clothing and makes plans for a visit to a wealthy villa, the proceeds of which then go to the city's poor, in an age-old legacy.

Gumiho: Tale of the Fox's Child/ Grudge: The Revolt of Gumiho/ The Gumiho's Revenge/ 구미호: 여우누이뎐 / Gumiho: Yeowoonuidyun **\ (Korean)
16 episodes
The two little girls in this drama well deserve acting awards for this drama imo. Not to say the others weren't amazing as well, just that Yeon Yi stole the limelight every single time she appeared. Not really a romance.. although there was a fair bit of passion. There are also several tragic death's with a sad ending (along with an incredibly loong soliloquy) I soo felt for the ever-supporting mute guy. Favorite character(s): Yeon Yi, her boyfriend, and Chun Woo.
A Gumiho, trying for 10 years to reach humanity, misses the mark when her hubby spills the beans and she is forced cross-country with her just-shy of 10 year old daughter. After a run-in with a tiger, and then a persistant hunter, They are taken in by a 'benevolent' gentleman with a fairly hostile household. Still, they try to stick it out for a time... eventually getting wound up in a web of deceit, as a local shaman manipulates the family, who are desperate to find a cure for their sick daughter.
