#EYDC2025 - Day 2: I first saw Im Ji Yeon in #TheGlory (and was terrified of her). But this year she grabbed my attention in #TaleofLadyOk and #NiceNotToMeetYou. She can pretty much do anything — villain, hero, historical, and even slapstick comedy. Fan for life!

#EYDC2025 Day 3: Favorite actor discovered - Choo Young Woo by a mile. He did 4 new #kdramas this year, playing 6 different characters (bc he had dual roles in 2 of those). He stole every scene he was in. And now, I will watch him in anything.

Too many to choose from, but I pick #TaleofLadyOk — a story about a group of people who cling together through some serious adversity. Made me a fan for life of Im Ji Yeon and Choo Young Woo.

Late start on Day 1, where I’ve seen some of my faves — Atty Woo and Suspicious Partner. So I pick #TaleofLadyOk (brave, fierce, fighter for justice) and #JudgeFromHell (hilariously evil at first, the way most judges feel, I guess).

At 75 to 90 minutes each episode on average, #TaleOfLadyOk is a marathon with 16 episodes.
But damn if it isn't a compelling watch though. Kinda nice to have a Joseon drama that's not confined with just the palace intrigues.

It really is Choo Young Woo's break out year. He was fantastic in both #TaleofLadyOk (in dual roles!) and in #TraumaCode:HerosonCall.
I'm looking forward to his next projects.

It’s technically 5, but #TaleOfLadyOk began airing in 2024, so it doesn’t count, I think?
The others are #LoveScout, #StudyGroup, #TraumaCode, and #TheDivorceInsurance.

#TaleOfLadyOk fans please talk me off the ledge about this casting.
I was expecting a much more in demand name as her final male lead…
(Did they run out of money securing #KimGoEun for the last chapter?)

Halfway through #kdrama #TaleOfLadyOk. Sageuk as its best. Good balance between scheming, friendship, lighter moments (idol ml)+serious like prejudices against people who doesn't fit in category "normal", slavery. I❤️the characterisation of FL: full faith in good but ready to fight for family/friends

Work has been painful lately because it’s the unfun part of the project. Anyway, I’ve watched (& am watching) a lot of dramas to detach from reality… #TaleOfLadyOk 8/10! #TheGoodBadMother (finally! So far, good! ❤️🐷) #CinderellaGame On Air (WTF??!!! but I’ll take it 😳). #KDrama #KDramas #AsianDramas
a man and a woman are holding stuffed animals in their arms .
Alt: a man and a woman are holding stuffed plushy dogs in their arms. The woman has her head on the man’s shoulder. The man looks at the woman lovingly and the woman’s face is emotional. They are watching a drama. They are cute in matching blue striped pajamas. It’s a scene from #TheGoodBadMother #KDrama.

It starred Choo Young-woo, whose been in some bigger recent dramas such as #TraumaCode, #TaleOfLadyOk & #HeadOverHeels - but he plays a gentle bumbling character here
And Joy from Red Velvet is the kind hearted policewoman ☺️

Yes - I think Kocowa aims to carve out a mix of older classics that aren’t available elsewhere - such as #JewelinthePalace (aka Daejanggeum) - & more recent classics like #TaleOfLadyOk
So if you’re a major kdrama fan it’s probably worth subscribing to both Kocowa & Viki

Oh cool! - a great selection 👌
I’ve seen (& really liked) #LoveScout, #StudyGroup & #TraumaCode, (though not #TheDivorceInsurance);
but #TaleOfLadyOk is only on Kocowa as far as I know, which is the main reason I didn’t get to see it (I’m already oversubscribed elsewhere).

Oh that's a level up.
Finally I can differentiate between the Joseon classes speech and phrase patterns now.
It is surprising how much you pick up just by watching, especially if you're already fluent in Mandarin or Japanese.

Strong female lead reciting legal terms is another one of my kryptonites.
Please let the rest of this drama actually be a Joseon setting lawyer story, because I definitely did not expect that plot. 😍
