K-Drama Reivew: Reply 1994

Written by Kidge. Although this review feels a few days late, I think I needed that amount of time to process and recover from the experience of Reply 1994.

K-Drama Reviews: The Heirs

We thought we should write this together because Kidge watched the show from the day it started airing, whereas I waited for the entire series to air (bar the last two episodes) and watched it over the course of three days.
