Start-Up Week 7: It's Been Three Years Since Last Week

Some television dramas do have a habit of having a time jump between episodes, right? The Jin Yong Manwha series Return of Condor Heroes had a huge time jump in between the poisoning and recovery of its heroine Xiao Longnu. In this one, three years passed between Week 6 and Week 7. Much has changed since the foul contract was turned down and Samsam Tech had to dissolve as a result. Much of the team has changed since three years after it was turned down.

What happens is Do San actually goes to America with his two best friends. Meanwhile, Dal Mi decides to work for her sister In Jae's company. Is this the beginning of patching up between the two estranged sisters? What's really going on with the marriage between their mother and their stepfather? Suddenly, In Jae wants her adoption by her stepfather dissolved. Much has changed in three years once you think about it.

A problem of virus infection and hacking hit Injae Company. This then lets Do San (who's now successful) to arrive. Do San manages to crack it down. This causes In Jae to have an ultimatum at her younger sister - hire Do San and the guys or resign. This also has the scenario when In Jae has no idea that her paternal grandmother is losing her sight. Until now, it's still not known how bad the marriage between her mother and stepfather has been. In Jae's and Dal Mi's mother begs In Jae to show up before their paternal grandmother goes completely blind.

What was interesting this week is that there's the question of can we start all over again? Do San admits that he wasn't the Do San in the letters. Do San tries to get rid of the self-driving car on the board but can't. This is where things get interesting. Is a new company starting up? What will happen to the sisters? I think next week will be the final week. Then maybe, it's time for me to start watching some realistic-type Korean crime series all over again or maybe not.

"Light The Night's" Finale (Spoilers Ahead)

SpikyTV I guess the series just kept us guessing, right? I finally got the chance to finish it after some busy nights. I was right that the killer was HANA (Esther Liu) BUT there's a twist - it was more of voluntary manslaughter than murder. Manslaughter is when one kills out of the heat of passion and that's what Hana did twice in the story. Hana had one against a client who used her and another against Sue after some unfortunate insanity attack. Hana ends up planning to hand herself over but her lover commits murder (towards a character named Chiang An) to protect her. The whole psychological thriller for me just didn't match up to what I wanted. I guess I was too used to how Victim's Game rolled out. I was expecting some real murder scheme. Instead, it was the anti-climatic manslaughter where Hana decides to hand herself to the authorities after what she did. I really still think that the finale wasn't worth too much of the wait. I was expecting something gran

I Just Finished "My Golden Life"

I finally finished My Golden Life which I was hesitant to watch. 52 one-hour long episodes? I was thinking it was easier to watch the Wuxia series that had 40+ minutes per episode such as Princess Weiyang which was quite long. A lot of episodes of My Golden Life would have a few minutes more depending on the coverage of the episode. So, I'm done and I never thought I'd actually finish it since I'm way too used to short K-Dramas. This one was rather long but it was rather entertaining in many ways. I was thinking about how Shin Hye Sun actually did well with on-screen partner Park Si Hoo. Sometimes, I'd like to joke about how they had a chemistry that looked good and felt good. Looked good? Both aren't attractive and I often joke how Hye Sun's face feels melted or how she was rightfully matched with Lee Jong Suk in Hymn of Death . Hye Sun isn't pretty but she really makes up with her good acting and likability. The same goes for Si Hoo with how he acts out hi

Just Finished "My Glamorous Imperial Concubine" (Some Spoilers)

This is another Wuxia series finished. I was having some expectations broken. The show can be full of spoilers when discussed even further. In fact, some characters are walking spoilers. If you're not ready to be spoiled - DON'T READ. If not, you can read further. I feel the show had some plot twists and turns. Besides, maybe some of the villains in this show weren't as evil as you think. Emperor Liancheng is an antagonist but dies before the show can end. Liancheng may have some idiotic obsession with Ma Fuya. It becomes even worse when Liancheng's younger sister Liansi and his younger brother Lianxi get involved. Liansi develops a crush on Meng Qiyou and even gets pregnant in the process. It seems that Ma Fuya was pregnant with Liancheng's baby but ends up in Qiyou's household after Liancheng dies. Liancheng dies doing a selfless act to save Ma Fuya. The obsessive empress Ma Xiangyun commits suicide to kill Emperor Liancheng. Emperor Liancheng's quite a
