Kdrama Alice

 


It's a compelling drama about time-travel and its implications. I like the chemistry and sweetness between the characters Yoon Tae Yi (Kim Hee Seon) and Park Jin Gyeom (Joo Won), as well as other supporting characters such as Reporter Kim (Lee Da In), Alice's agent Yoo Min Hyuk (Kwak Si Yang), the buddy police of Lieutenant (Lee Jae Yoon), and Team Leader Goo (Kim Sang Ho).

It also explores them of mother's love and self-sacrifice. And, of course for a time-travel series, the concept of parallel universe. The series resolve itself in a way, that is poignant although doesn't always make perfect sense. However the concept of space that stores the memories and emotion is a soft and tender way to remind us living in a world of crisis and slower pace.

K-Drama Romcom

Just finished watching "What's wrong with Secretary Kim". A very funny, romantic rom-com. I love the characters that are not shallow but have deep personality.

I love the playfulness as well as the journey the two lead characters discover love with each other, and navigating their relationship, as well as their first relationship. Being understanding, learn from others' friends advice, being smiling and lower tension to avoid argument repeatedly. It seems that they have more playful moments and tender texts than argument maybe 10:1 ratio.

I love the pretty Kim Mi-So, her gentle and bright smile. Her cute furious stares, as well as her patience. Her passion to serve others, while trying to discover her path, she made decision but she is flexible and not rigid with her way and her manner. She is accessible and remains open to ideas.

As man, of course the Lee Young-Joun is the stuff of movie. He is rich, wealthy, successful, young, good looking with great body, but also very considerate as boyfriend, faithful, loyal, accommodates well with family and has a good friend.

What I Learn from Netflix "The Good Place"

After binge-watching The Good Place Season 1 and 2 in a day, I learnt and gained interests in some ethics concept that is being discussed by Eleanor and Michael, taught by Chidi:

  • Aphorism: is a pithy observation about succinct truth. For example: 
Life is short, art long, opportunity fleeting, experience deceptive, judgment difficult.
  • Adage: is a form of aphorism derived from custom or statement past from generations.
  • Immanuel Kant
  • the four Cardinal virtues: Courage/Fortitude, Wisdom, Temperance, Justice.

Seeing experiences with fresh eyes

Given my propensity to seek new experiences, I wanted to start a new series of article that explores experiences that are new, new to me, or...
