A two-timer story

 Oh, my God. Let's make some definitions. Despicable me is the exact synonym of I am a man. All men are despicable. Feelings stay apart. They are just physically driven to the hole at the end of their stuff and their lives. So, no man is interesting. Male characters are the very same thing. Female characters are the interesting ones. And along all my now very long life I have come to choose the three worst female characters of all time. With my 120th step, Love Alarm, I discovered the worst one, the gold medal among the worst female characters, the woman with the worst connection to her heart, the woman with no feelings. Sorry, I am only talking about female characters related to love nesting and couple formation, I will set apart worst female characters related to mother-son relation, those are monsters not human beings to really serve as a model for a female character. I will start writing about the bronze medal. Bronze - Kate Beckinsale in Pearl Harbor film. I really have l...

When a series deserves zero out of a thousand stars

 I have commentated before I watch Korean series because above all I want to enjoy love. I am not going to reflect any love from here after, I am going to write about antilove, so be prepared. There are series and series. I am currently in the final chapter of my 119th step: Tazza. I am 34 minutes short to finish it and I could say something, I have never watched a more stupid character in my previous 118 steps. I really hate this guy. I really hate the fact that he does not know when to stop. I really hate the way in which he takes all his decisions. It is by far the worst decision taker I have watched in a series or going farther in real life. If someone like him exists the best thing that a god can do is take him away and prevent the human race to be swayed with the ripples his decisions form in all the life veil of the human race. There are some people that deserve to be aborted, this Go Ni guy must have been aborted. It is unbelievable such a guy sickens his family, his friend...

My 117 steps arranged by my own formula

 I developed a way to classify the series I have seen that is my way to do it. I am handicapping new series because when you watch the current lists, young people give qualifications to the series they have watched more often than not so young people and also, young people do not watch old series very often, they crave for the new, so, new series tend to cope the high places. And if young people watch old series, they handicapped them a lot because obviously are less developed Hallyu and old series are not very well appreciated. I am comfortable with my classification even if the series I would watch by its quality 100 times is in 18th place, my favourite one by gut feeling is in 4th place and I do not think that the series that appear in 104th, 109th, 112th and 114th places  are that  bad. I have to think more in refining my formula. I am a super fan of Yoon Eun Hye and it is pitiful two of her series are sitting in the last two places. I hope next series she films will ...

So many things, so little time.

 This is an example of my schedule for my next Hallyu series. Over there there is a Japanese invitee, Satorare. It is a 51 days plan but sometimes I really make more than my 6 daily chapters, so... What I do not have is time. And all those moments will be lost in time like tears in the rain.  Time to sleep! Stop the press! I need to tell you something. Korean series involve a lot of art. Maybe it is one of the many things that have imprisoned me to watch series after series. I started Navillera, my 106th step, thinking in the title. I thought, per my western deviations that Korean screenwriters had tried to adapt something related to Spanish bullfight. My Spanish mother tongue dominate my mind. Of course not, Korean screenwriters excel their profession: Navillera is an English adaptation to a word invented by a Korean poet in the beginning of the XX century, 초 치운, in a poem called The nun's dance. And it is related to nabi, 나비, the way to say butterfly in Korean. And in my 117...
