Best K-Drama Moments: July Week #4 - Oh My Ghost, I Remember You, High Society + Mask

Oh My Ghost
Jealousy is an evil thing, honey.

Sun Woo prides himself on being a fair boss. He's the type of guy who works his employees hard because he believes in them and gives them room to fail as he knows that success doesn't usually come after one try.

Best K-Drama Moments: July Week #3 - Mask, The Time We Were Not in Love, Oh My Ghost, High Society + I Remember You

Mask
Save me, but don't leave me.

Min Woo and Ji Sook hit a rough patch when Mi Yeon exposes our heroine's fraud. This gets Min Woo mad and he distances himself. Ji Sook has to divorce Min Woo to keep evil Seok Hoon from killing him to get his inheritance through her. However, Ji Sook is in a bind and feels she can't fully confide in her husband which frustrates him. So, they go through a hilarious couple counseling where they insist that they must divorce while showing that they are absolutely in love. It all comes to a head on their way to finalize their divorce. After Ji Sook confesses that looking at her husband's eyes gives her strength, he turns around and tells her that he loves her - not as Eun Ha but as Ji Sook. He reveals that her leaving him will be tantamount to killing him, so, if she wants to save him, she must stay by his side.

Best K-Drama Moments: July Week #2 - Mask, Oh My Ghost, The Time We Were Not in Love + High Society

Mask
I love you.

After a rough start, Min Woo and fake Eun Ha have found common ground and fallen in love. When Ji Sook overhears the evil Suk Hoon instructing someone over the phone to finish someone off, she understandably freaks out upon learning that Min Woo is hurt. She runs to him only to arrive at the hospital and find him with a tiny bruise on his head. When her now worried husband asks her if she's okay, she confesses that she loves him. It's about time and just what these two need to conquer the evil coming their way.

Best K-Drama Moments: July Week #1 - The Time We Were Not in Love, Warm and Cozy, Mask, I Remember You, Oh My Ghost + High Society

The Time We Were Not in Love
Love is sneaky.

During another crisis with her broken heart, Won dashes to be with Ha Na, and he cheers her up with the best way he knows how - with beer. In her hotel room, the two twig lots of brew, play games, get very loud, and trash the place in between some serious, heart-fluttering talks. The next morning, Won opens his eyes to find his best friend next to him, asleep on his arm. His mild surprise is quickly substituted with awe, as his eyes gently sweep over her lovely face. While he lightly brushes her hair back, his lips curl up in a smile. Won snaps out of the moment, though, when Ha Na begins to stir awake.

Best K-Drama Moments: June Week #4 - Mask, The Time We Were Not in Love (x2) + I Remember You

Mask
I am his wife.

I've been pulling my hair in frustration, waiting for Ji Sook to fully embrace her Eun Ha persona and stop letting the pathetic loan sharks and her awful brother-in-law, Seok Hoon, intimidate and manipulate her. Finally, there might be hope for her. In an earlier scene, Eun Ha told Min Woo that a wife takes care for her husband. So, when she barged into a shareholder's meeting that would strip him of his position as director and announced that she's his wife, I practically screamed. Because that could mean she's about to take care of business and protect him.

Best K-Drama Moments: June Week #3 - Producer (x2), Who Are You: School 2015, High Society, Mask + Warm and Cozy

Producer
My habit is loving you.

Joon Mo has been working tirelessly behind Ye Jin's back to get her streetlights turned on, cluing her into his real feelings. So basically, this poker-faced guy who edited out her confession really does love her, huh? She calls him up in the middle of the night to kill a mosquito. When he makes the 30-minute drive, she gets him to admit to getting the lights turned on. She asks why he would spend several days making complaints to get lights turned on for a street where he doesn't even live. And why he would make a 30-minute trip from one phone call from her. With no escape in sight, he confesses. He tells her that he's spend half his life following her from college to KBS, and he's realized that it wasn't just a habit but actually love. He explains that the reason he's taken a long time to get to this point was that he was worried that if they dated, she'd dump him. However, now, he's grateful that she didn't let him go.

Best K-Drama Moments: June Week #2 - Who Are You: School 2015 (x2), Producer, Warm and Cozy, Mask + High Society

Who Are You: School 2015
The bigger badass.

So Young has been a constant thorn in Eun Bi's side, but Eun Byul is back to do some rightful cutting. Upon her return, Eun Byul foils another one of So Young's plans to reveal Eun Bi's identity and avenges her little sister. While repeatedly shoving her backwards, Eun Byul calls So Young out on being a bully, especially for her lack of remorse towards Eun Bi's 'death'. Although she is shaken, So Young readies to strike, but Eun Byul catches her arm and raises her own hand as if to slap her. So Young flinches, expecting the blow, but Eun Byul drops her hand and tells her that answering violence with violence is beneath her.

Producer
Is this your first?

On Cindy's birthday, Joon Mo and Seung Chan take her to the amusement park, with Ye Jin set to join them later. Since Joon Mo has to work, Seung Chan is left to keep Cindy company. During their time alone, Cindy recounts her sad story about this amusement park. It's the place where she met CEO Byun, changing her fate forever. A few seconds pass by and Cindy stands on her tiptoes and kisses Seung Chan, as though she was replacing the bad memory with this dreamy moment.

Best K-Drama Moments: May Week #5 - Mask, Producer, Orange Marmalade, Who Are You: School 2015 + Warm and Cozy

Mask
He kills her.

Although Mask just entered the weekly lineup, one of its compelling scenes has shot up to our top spot. Our lead, Min Woo, is a tortured man with memory lapses, and one takes place when his fiancee is killed. Did he do it? He doesn't know and the security tape was curiously erased at that crucial moment, so he relies on hypnosis to regain his memory, and it's ugly. Do we really believe that the hero is a murderer? Not in a million years, but this scene of Min Woo strangling Eun Ha to death has me hooked.

Best K-Drama Moments: May Week #4 - The Girl Who Sees Smells, Producer, Orange Marmalade, Warm and Cozy + Who Are You: School 2015

The Girl Who Sees Smells [FINAL]
No honey for boo boo.

While Moo Gak and Cho Rim's face-off with serial killer Jae Hee carries over to the finale, this episode pampers romantic viewers with OTP moments galore. For this top ten, one would think I'd have picked a lovey-dovey scene, but I'm going for one that actually keeps our couple apart. As the two cling on to each other, Moo Gak and Cho Rim enter their apartment and give viewers a play-by-play of their "firsts" as newlyweds: their first time sitting on the sofa as a married couple, their first kiss as a married couple, and his first shower as a married man. After freshening up, Moo Gak smoothly glides back to the living room in only his bathrobe, obviously ready for his first non-PG lovin' with his wife. Unfortunately, Cho Rim's nowhere to be found, leaving him to help Detective Kang at a crime scene. Poor Moo Gak is in for his first case of the blues since saying "I do."

Sealed with a kiss.

It's a new drama time!
Joon Mo and Ye Jin are best friends, currently living together after a drunken evening of lamentation when he agreed to let her live with him for the four months she's stranded without a home. He doesn't remember agreeing to it, but she's got proof in the form of a promissory note he wrote and signed with his fingerprint. However, something else took place that night - another thing he doesn't remember that potentially proves something he's never acknowledged to her. On that night, when she expresses her worry that he might take back his agreement (attributing it to alcohol), he decides to prove his sincerity by sealing his promise with a kiss.

Best K-Drama Moments: May Week #2 - Always My Dad vs. Fear in Her Eyes

The Girl Who Sees Smells
You'll always be my dad.

I'm big on the bond between a parent and child, so, I loved this scene between Cho Rim and the man who introduced himself as her father after she awoke from her coma. I learned that Jae Pyo lost a child that would have been her age and that he loved Cho Rim like he would his real kid. We were especially touched by how our lovely Cho Rim was very understanding, reassuring him that she'd continue to love him as her father.

Best K-Drama Moments: May Week #1 - Oh Cho Rim's Past vs. Dropping By

The Girl Who Sees Smells
Oh Cho Rim learns that she is Choi Eun Seol.

The suspense is killing me! When the evil Chef Kwon asks Cho Rim to fetch a cookbook from his study, she stumbles upon the letter written by Dr. Chun Baek Gyung. I won't ask why she nosily read a letter that she didn't know was hers because off I care about is that she finally read it! But unfortunately for her, her serial killing boss caught her in the act.

Best K-Drama Moments: April Week #5 - Lip Wiping vs. Resurrected and Reunited

The Girl Who Sees Smells
My lips will wipe that off.

Are we the only ones who didn't expect so much skinship lately? And how freaking prefect was this kiss? Moo Gak and Cho Rim are fast becoming one of our favourite OTPs, and the next time our boyfriends ask to come grocery shopping with us, we're going to tell them to stay home just so we can flirt on FaceTime with them!
In this scene, we loved that Moo Gak thoroughly enjoyed the food Cho Rim deemed inedible and how she opened up to him about her inability to remember the time before her coma. However, our favourite part was how she decided to wipe off a barely visible food stain off his lips. And despite Moo Gak's inability to feel, this got his blood boiling, leading him to hold her hand and pull her closer. She initially pulled away, but who can resist his bedroom eyes? Cho Rim certainly didn't when she caved in and lost herself in his kiss. If not for an interruption, they would have kept kissing all night long.

Best K-Drama Moments: April Week #4 - Protect Me vs. Ready for Bed

The Girl Who Sees Smells
You'll protect me.

Moo Gak and Cho Rim are the ace Sensory Couple who solves crimes faster than Sherlock Holmes and John Watson. To crack those cases, they put their lives on the line, coming in contact with criminals. This is hard for a man who has to watch the woman he's slowly falling in love with risk her life, and so, Moo Gak pleads with her to stop helping him. While his concern is touching, Cho Rim explains how great it feels for her "monster eye" to not only be useful but be instrumental in solving difficult cases. Besides, if he's so worried about her, he can just protect her. We don't quite think that the best thing to do when someone wants to keep you safe is to literally make them keep you safe, but on the other hand, how great is it that she's more than willing to trust him with her life?

Best K-Drama Moments: April Week #3 - Monster + Solo Audience vs. The Wait is Finally Over

The Girl Who Sees Smells
I'm a monster, too.

Nothing gets us giddy like a brand spanking new OTP inching closer together as they take off their masks and reveal themselves to each other, which is why it was easy for us to forgive the unusually sharp-eyed kid who noticed Cho Rim's eye colour and called her a monster. While we were upset that Cho Rim was ridiculed and embarrassed for something she had no control over, we loved that it allowed Moo Gak to reveal that he's a "monster," too. He opened up to her about his personal loss of his sister and what led to his inability to feel physical pain. Now, she knows that she's not alone.

Best K-Drama Moments: April Week #2 - Getting an Eyeful vs. To be Human

The Girl Who Sees Smells
Getting an eyeful.

Thanks to Oh Cho Rim's eye for scents, her first case with Choi Mu Gak is a success. After a wild motor chase through the streets, she ultimately sniffs out an elusive robber in a men's locker room of a sauna, quickly disguising herself as a guy to help with the capture. However, during the arrest, her female identity is accidentally exposed to a room of traumatized, half-naked male witnesses. With the exception of one exhibitionist, the men scramble to cover themselves up while Cho Rim runs screaming out of the room.

Best K-Drama Moments: April Week #1 - Celebrate with a Kiss vs. Vampire Alien

Hyde, Jekyll, Me
Celebrate with a kiss.

His alter has been fully integrated with him, but Seo Jin has not completely gone back to hid old self. Traces of Robin remain, which includes certain signature traits and memories. On his alter's birthday, Seo Jin brings Ha Na to the place she told Robin they should celebrate the occasion. It is there Seo Jin once again professes his love to Ha Na and wishes to be with her. From there, things heat up as Seo Jin kisses her forehead, eyes and lips; the great part is that she returns the kiss! (To be honest, I wish that she didn't because Robin only just disappeared, so she must still love him, but switching straight to Seo Jin is wrong. As much as I want Seo Jin to be happy, it's unrealistic.)

Best K-Drama Moments: March Week #4 - One and the Same vs. This isn't a Dream

Hyde, Jekyll, Me
Once and for all, you're one and the same!

Alter personality Robin had been stubborn about keeping his identity separate from Seo Jin. However, when Seo Jin posed as him since he had been missing, Robin realized that not one suspected the impersonation, no even Ha Na. It finally hits Robin that he is Seo Jin.
