Bride of the Century: Episode 6 Recap
by: Raine — Lee Hong-ki killed me dead in this episode. Seriously, the way he portrays Kang-joo’s douche-y brand of love seriously got to me. Maybe ’cause that douche-y brand of love ain’t quite so douche-y anymore. Plus, it’s sprinkled with kittens. I likes kittens.

Bride of the Century: Episode 5 Recap
by: Raine — A lot of WTF happened, but it was offset by some seriously cute Kang-joo. Watching him open up is glorious. It’s like the emotional version of a baby learning to walk. He falls down a lot, but when he gets back up, it’s a glorious victory.

Bride of the Century: Episode 2 Recap
by: Raine — Yes, that’s Lee Hong-ki with a kitten. My life is complete. This episode still hasn’t shown us that the show is improving in quality, but I’ll be damned if there isn’t a highly addicting…SOMETHING…about it. Call it the appeal of a man with a cat.
