KDMEO Episode 111 - So many fall dramas! Part 4

No theme this week! Next week, we're narrowing down our fall kdrama choices. We will be covering the second hour of "Ms. Ma, Nemesis" (미스마), "Matrimonial Chaos" (최고의 이혼) and "The Player" (플레이어). Digressions: 0:42 - Teresa has been watching "Strong Woman Do Bong Soon" 3:17 - Judy's farewell to "Witcher 3"   5:53 - "Live" (라이브) is an excellent frontline cop drama from TVN starring Jung YuMi, Lee KwangSoo, Bae SeongWoo and Bae JongOk. It's actually from March, but whaddya gonna do, we just felt like watching it. Judy wishes there could be a realistic drama like this, but for medical staff who are not doctors.  23:29 - "The Ghost Detective" (오늘의 탐정) is a supernatural drama from KBS starring Daniel Choi, Park EunBin and Lee JiAh. We're not quite sure if this first hour is effectively setting up the premise of a detective who specializes in the paranormal. It is definitely creepy, though. Special shout out to Judy's dog, Bori, for not being a possessed dog that kidnaps children. 47:00 - "Mama Fairy and the Woodcutter" (계룡선녀전) is a TVN show starring Moon ChaeWon, Yoon HyunMin, Seo JiHoon and Go DooShim. We were looking forward to a lighthearted, romantic drama based on a folk tale, and what we got was a disappointing production with grating characters, inconsistencies in the basic premise, and the most awful-looking CGI cat we've ever seen.    Some Korean terms: 공무원: [gong-moo-won] government employee; generally considered one of the best jobs to have in Korea. 고시원: [go-si-won] dormitory-style living space; previously used by people studying for professional exams but nowadays used by young single professionals or the elderly. 흥신소: [heung-sin-so] private investigator office; not considered to be very reputable in Korea.   Audio credits: Marcin Przybylowicz - Witcher 3: The Wild Hunt – "The Trail"   Please send any questions, comments or suggestions on Facebook, Twitter and Instagram (@kdramamyeyesout) or e-mail us (kdramamyeyesout(at)gmail.com).
