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…

Forest of Secrets 2: Okay, now things are cookin’. I still have to force myself to sit down and watch this, but at least I’m able to fall into the story a little easier. I’m especially into the reluctant bromance with Shi-mok and Dong-jae. What a good pair. Almost as good as Shi-mok and Yeo-jin. Speaking of which, who else felt their heart skip a beat when Shi-mok asked Yeo-jin, “You don’t draw these days?”
You From Another Star: Oh, how I’ve missed Shin Sung-rok and his character’s evilly evilness. *twists nail ring*

When I Was the Most Beautiful: I should probably not be enjoying this show as much as I am, but there’s something about it that just grabs me. Yeah, it might be overwrought and setting up all kinds of future mayhem, but there’s something so palpable about this story — I literally feel like I can reach out of my screen and grab ahold of it, from the setting to the characters. Hwan broke my heart this week with the sweetness + agony of giving-up-but-still-protecting Ye-ji, his entire “I met you when I was too young” speech, the hike with his father (so great and packed with subtext), and the way all three men were present during Ye-ji’s marriage proposal. This drama covered a heck of a lot of ground in just a few episodes, and Episode 5 was so portentous I was kind of waiting for something bad to happen… except at the same time I’m totally not ready! What is happening, show!?
Flower of Evil: I am *this much* tempted to pick this drama up again just for Kim Ji-hoon with long hair. Is that bad?
