Fight My Way and Suspicious Partner K-drama Reviews

I started out last drama cycle with sooooooooo many shows on my list, but at the end of the day, I really only managed to finish two—Fight My Way and Suspicious Partner. Both had moments I really, really loved. Both also disappointed me in some ways. So let’s review both shows and see how they fared! Fight My Way Review Fight My Way started off on the slow side, but wow, did it steal my heart somewhere in the middle. I’m a huge sucker for friends-turned-lovers stories and slice-of-life dramas, so this ended up being an extremely pleasant, at times laugh-out-loud funny watch filled with well-rounded, lived-in characters who felt like real people. I loved Kim Ji Won’s Choi Ae Ra from the get-go—she was brash and stubborn while still being vulnerable and human. It took me a little longer to figure out Park Seo Joon’s Go Dong Man, but I ended up falling for him totally and completely by the end.  I don’t know that I’ve ever seen a K-drama male lead quite like …

`Ruk jaana nahin` was Vinod Khanna`s favourite song

Actor Akshaye Khanna had earlier revealed that the popular song “Ruk jaana nahin” from the 1974 film “Imtihan” was the favourite song of his father and late actor and politician Vinod Khanna, who died in April 2017. Back in 2017, Akshaye, along with late actress Sridevi had appeared on the popular children singing reality show “Sa Re Ga Ma Pa Li`l Champs Season 6” to promote their film “Mom“. Both the actors were touched when they heard contestant Dhroon Tickoo sing the song “Ruk jaana nahin”, which was picturised on Vinod Khanna. “This song was my father`s favourite song and you sang it so beautifully. I am so glad that I could see you performing this song live as it was absolutely mesmerising,” Akshaye said. Sridevi felt the same, and had said: “This is one of my favourite songs too and you sang it with so much soul and passion. I`m completely touched. You are a great singer, keep up the good work.”   Source link

10 Best K-drama OST Songs

When I first started watching K-dramas, the soundtracks were one of the things that took a lot of getting used to. Many viewers come to K-dramas by way of K-pop, but I wasn’t one of them, and the upbeat bubblegum pop and prom-theme ballads seemed pretty over the top at first. Of course, with Boys over Flowers being one of the very first dramas I ever watched, I also suffered from having “Almost PAAAAAAARADIIIIIIISE” stuck in my head on repeat for several weeks. (Definitely memorable, but not in a good way.) All that being said, drama OSTs (original soundtracks) have grown on me over time, and there are some that really hit the nail on the head in terms of setting the right mood at just the right moment. For me, these are the 10 best K-drama OST songs of all time—the ones that really worked for the dramas they were in and that I didn’t mind hearing over and over throughout the series. 1. “Run” by Nell, Two Weeks OST Confession: I have a …
