Review: Moon Lovers Scarlet Heart Ryeo (spoiler-free and spoilers)
Spoiler-free I definitely agree with the majority of the people who watched this drama. It’s a beautiful, yet tragic love story. However, it honestly just became my favorite Korean drama thus far (excluding Boys Over Flowers, because that’s a classic and holds a special place in my heart). I was hesitant to watch this because…

Review: Moon Lovers: Scarlet Heart Ryeo EP6-7-8-9-10 (spoilers)
The 8th Prince and Hae Soo I really want them to be together, but things keep coming up. I enjoy every single scene of them together, but why do I feel like they’re just not meant to be. Wook keeps saying he’ll save her and that he will get her out of the palace, but…

Review: Chocolate Overall thoughts (spoiler-free)
More than just a love story Going into the last episode, I didn’t really worry much about whether the main couple ends up together or not. This series is more than just a love story. There’s actually a moral to it and I don’t remember watching a drama that had this big of a lesson.…

Review: Chocolate EP11-12-13-14-15 (spoilers)
I’m writing this as I listen to the OST. I’m currently listening to JUST LOOK FOR YOU by AILEE! These episodes were as wonderful as the first ten. Episode 12 was my favourite. Their return to Wando was executed very well. When Kang finally realized who Cha-Yeoung is, ahhhhhhh I cried so much! It’s more…

Review: Chocolate EP6-7-8-9-10 (spoilers)
There are so many deaths in this series, it’s heartbreaking. For instance, Yun Ji-Yong,s death was just so sad. The fact that the mom came back after finding out that her son’s days were counted. The mom’s acting is so good as well. The way she cried; wow! The best actress of the episode! I…

Review: Chocolate EP2-3-4-5 (spoilers)
OMG! Guys, I binged watched the next few episodes of CHOCOLATE and I already cried once! This kdrama is so good! I love love love the storyline. I like the fact that Kang doesn’t know who Cha-yeoung is yet. I’m dying to know how he’ll find out. I’m sure it’s going to be emotional. It’s…

Review: Chocolate (kdrama) EP1 (spoilers)
I went into this without knowing much. All I know is it seems like a sad story and chocolates have a role in this. After watching, I find a few things heartbreaking such as Kang moving out of his childhood home and moving to Seoul for a better life and also to take over his…

Teaching: How to motivate our students?
Let me tell you this. Teaching teens in 2022 is not as easy as it seems. No, my students aren’t bad kids; I think they just lack guidance and discipline. They lack motivation and while we, as teachers, try to encourage them, sometimes, it is not enough. In today’s post, I would like to share…
