So, what are we all watching this week?
What kept you reaching for more (or agonizing when there was no more), and what made you want to throw your remote through the screen? Time to weigh in…

The Story of Park’s Marriage Contract: Episode 3, let’s go! I’m so far behind but this is loads of fun. I loved seeing our leads collaborating over the painting, and the fall-kiss trope is always appreciated. Lee Se-young as Yeon-woo is soooo charming here, I can see why Tae-ha is falling hard and fast. (But why was he carrying her on his back if he has a heart condition and tries not to run…)

Duty After School: This show somehow flew under my radar but that has since been rectified with a few all-nighters. While binging, I went from being frustrated at the whiny heroes to accepting that this is a story about immature high schoolers who got combat training when they shouldn’t have. This realization saved me from being too mad at that controversial ending. I’m also glad it managed to erase my irrational hate for Shin Hyun-soo after he played that sunbae-who-fell-out-of-love so well in Age of Youth 2.
Single’s Inferno 3: Someone described Gwan-hee as “that man who got the Park Sae-ro-yi special” and I just had to share. That being said, that man is such a red flag and obvious gaslighter that I can’t believe he actually has multiple ladies liking him. Did K-drama discussions just raise my taste in men to impossibly normal standards?
