Welcome to the first Lovepark End of the Year Award: where the awards don't matter, and nobody cares! Judges: ME! (Yeah, if you're looking for objectivity, you're in the wrong place.) NOTE: Not all the dramas of 2012 are nominated in this mock awards because I have not seen all the dramas. Therefore, do not feel offended if I never once mention a show you loved or loathed.

I feel guilty about announcing this, but things have left my control. I will no longer be recapping Fermentation Family . I know, I've only recapped two episodes so why did I even bother saying I was going to recap the series... well, things happen. My quick list of excuses: 1) my life has become super busy (I only have time to watch ONE drama a week... so sad) 2) I lost my source of Fermentation Family episodes (anyone know of a good place?) 3) I'm too lazy to watch and take screenshots of some streaming host site (plus, I can't stand bad English subtitles) On a slight upside, I have a couple of screenshots of episode 5 which were the reasons I even started to recap. Enjoy the pretty. Oh, and this is a screenshot of episode 12... so beautiful.

Episode two is good, with lots of little hints here and there that might mean something in the future. We see a lot more of Ho-tae's past but it's still too early to say anything definite since it's only the second episode. Only time will tell.

Hello, world! I'm going to warn you, this end of the year review is embarrassingly short because I didn't finish many dramas this year. I don't finish many dramas every year because I hardly ever finish sageuks (shame on me), don't really like Korean action-oriented dramas (i.e. Iris), and have a life outside of dramas that doesn't allow me to watch everything that is airing, unfortunately, but this year seemed especially low.   Just a heads-up, but I'm going to talk about three unfinished dramas because, though I didn't watch them in their entirety, I feel like I've watched enough where my opinion won't change. That doesn't mean they are the only dramas I didn't finish this year (hardly), and neither is this a list of all the 2011 dramas I've seen. I've seen Birdie Buddy , Athena , The Princess's Man , Man of Honor , and many others that would take up too much space and brain power to list them all. [WARNING: there will be ...

The wonderful PD-writer duo that brought us Resurrection and The Devil bring us a new drama. This one is definitely lighter than their past two works, but from looking only at episode one, things seem okay. Characters are introduced and the plot is being developed. The main plus is that visually, the drama is prettily shot. Candy to my eyes. Episode 1 Recap:
