Maestra: Strings of Truth
Join us as we unpack, Maestra: Strings of Truth: The guests arrive, the instruments tune, and the sound of the conductor can be heard from the stage door. She enters and backs the audience as she faces the orchestra….all eyes are on her…She raises her baton and exhales as she prepares to take us on a journey of awakening, mystery, drama, betrayal and murder.
As each phrase is completed another layer is revealed in this well scripted piece of art imitating life and Cha Se-Eum is first violin. As she aims to transform a mediocre orchestra into one of the best in Korea, she is met with many cold fronts…but as one of very few women conductors she continues to break barriers, glass ceilings and even a few hearts…This is the story of Meastra.

The Kidnapping Day (2023)
Join us as we unpack, The Kidnapping Day: What length would you go, to save your child? What crime are you willing to commit for the betterment of their health. Kim Myeong-Jun was a poor man with a warm-heart and when his ex-wife showed up with the opportunity for him to make money to pay for their sick daughter’s operation, he took up her offer to kidnap an 11-year-old Choi Ro-Hee with rich parents.
But is it really kidnapping when Ro-Hee steps out in front of his car and faints and only to wake up without her memory? Yes, yes it is but yet the CCTV footage truly baffles the cops who can’t make heads or tails of the situation or who he is. To Ro-Hee, he says, “I’m your dad”, but Ro Hee takes one look at her surroundings and feels, she would never live in a place like this.
But is it really kidnapping when Ro-Hee is willingly avoiding the cops escaping the hospital hand in hand with Myung Jun? Yes, yes it is but the CCTV footage is really confusing the cops that are now investigating not only a kidnapping but a double murder case.
But is it really kidnapping when Ro-hee knows, Myeong-jun is not her father, he has confessed to the full plot of kidnapping, choosing to stay with him and that she is really a genius and test subject. Was she really kidnapped or is she just a young girl trying to unravel truth behind her parent’s death.

They slowly find themselves each getting intertwined with Korea's richest family and it all comes to a head when Inju’s supposedly dead friend leaves her 70 billion won and those who she stole it from, desperately want it back starting a twisted game of cat and mouse.

These are the dramas we watched last year that are the most interesting or caused us to have the most discussions and sometimes disagreements. Fortunately, we both found 10 great dramas that we both enjoyed so much (we hope you will enjoy them too! ;)

The Red Sleeve-- Part Two
Continuing our discussion on The Red Sleeve: The King’s women. That is the life of a palace court lady. Not allowed to live by your own rules because you belong to the King. As a child, Sung Deok-Im witnessed the funeral of a royal concubine that was favoured by the King and was told, that is the dream of any Court Lady to have the honour of being chosen as a royal concubine. But Deok Im wants to live her life freely, something that will not be possible as a concubine. Still holding onto her dreams and aspirations, she happens to meet Crown Prince Yi San, at first unbeknownst to her and slowly begins to grow affection towards him while he quickly falls in love with her. The crown prince eventually becomes King Jeongjo and now desires Sung Deok-Im to become his concubine, but she refuses. Did I mention how dangerous the palace is for a court lady favoured by a King with enemies and other wives? She is now having to choose to hold onto her sense of freedom and her red sleeves or give her heart to a King who cannot truly give her all of his heart back.
