Kdrama Podcast time!! PART ONE: It was the end of 2019 and so is time to look back at the good, the bad, and the weird of Korean dramas last year. ⁠ ⁠ I watched a lot but still wish I'd watched more! Listen as I take you on a journey back through 2019 to discuss what I watched, what I didn't, what I loved and what I felt pretty 'bleh' about! There are too many Korean dramas mentioned in this episode to list them all, but some include: Haechi, Kingdom, My First First Love, Her Private Life, Abyss and many more! ⁠ ⁠ For podcasts, Korean drama reviews, and dark romantic historical fiction set in Old Korea, visit Lee Evie's website: www.leeevie.com⁠

Here is a behind the scenes look at my crappy notes as I recorded my podcast for this Friday, episode 31 of the #leeeviekoreandramapodcast ❤️❤️ Haha, I'm not very organised and usually have trouble reading my own writing! But as long as a new episode pops up every Friday, then I can feel happy! 😻😻 . I'm talking about a kdrama that is very very dear to my heart this week, so I'm feeling quite excited!!! 😻 . . #kdrama #koreandrama #kdramathoughts #koreandramathoughts #kdramapodcast #koreandramapodcast #kdramareview #koreandramareview #leeeviekoreandramapodcast #leeeviekdramapodcast #kdramas #koreandramas

Has anyone else watched the 2017 Kdrama Between Lovers? I am doing a rewatch right now because I just loved it so very much! ⁠😻 ⁠ This photo is from one of my absolute favourite scenes in the whole drama, it is such a quiet and beautiful romantic moment. I just feel like this melodrama, which is SLOW BURN, is one of the most romantic Kdramas I have ever seen. And that is saying something!⁠ ⁠ It is so sad and moving, but just too beautiful.⁠😻😭 ⁠ I'd love to know if anyone else has watched it? I feel like it is a bit of an underrated gem?⁠ It is quite possible I will dedicate an entire episode of my podcast to it this Friday!! ❤️❤️ ⁠ #Kdrama #kdramas #koreandrama #koreandramas #betweenlovers #comerainorshine #justbetweenlovers #wonjinah #junho #kdramapodcast #koreandramapodcast

I am very excited to have released my very first historical fiction novel, which is set in Korea during the Joseon dynasty. ❤️ Today I popped up a two chapter sampler onto my blog, so if you are interested in reading some of the story, you can follow the link via my bio 😻 Here is a short synopsis of the novel!😻😻 PROMISE SEASON: In the ancient Korean city of Hanyang, a gisaeng slave girl hides a fugitive in her bed, unexpectedly saving the life of a young man who is not all he seems. When she is forced to turn spy for a shadowy organisation with dangerous intentions, Seorin only wants one thing in return. Yet it is not her freedom she so desperately desires, it is something far more precious … and Seorin will face anything, even death, to gain it. A dark and romantic tale of old Korea. #historicalfictionwriter #historicalromance #historicalfiction #asianhistoricalfiction #bookssetinasia #joseonfiction #joseon #joseondynasty #gisaeng #koreanfiction

These days I have been watching dramas long enough that the sheen has since worn off and I can see a drama for what it truly is, either good or bad, a skill I didn’t used to possess at all (until maybe Coffee House killed me🙀).⁠ ⁠ But don’t get me wrong I still love kdramas now just as much as I did in the beginning, except that maybe these days coming across a magical compellingly perfect drama is much more of a rare occurrence than an everyday norm. ⁠ ⁠ But you know what, maybe that makes those perfect dramas even more of a revelation and joy. ⁠ This Kdrama is pure gold, featuring a love that endures hardship and still survives, growing stronger and deeper all the while, to tell a story that is moving and beautiful, thrilling and romantic. A must watch for all Kdrama fans.⁠😻😻😻 ⁠ Read my full review by following the link in my bio, or copy and paste the following:⁠ ⁠ https://leeevie.com/2019/12/14/korean-drama-review-queen-inhyuns-man/⁠ ⁠ ⁠😻😻😻

Grab a monkey, some soju and a water god, because now it is first episode challenge time! This is a brand new thing Lee Evie just invented, which involves her watching some first episodes and then, you know, talking about them and stuff. How challenging! 😻 This week she tackles the 2017 fantasy romance THE BRIDE OF HABAEK (in which actors she really likes, Nam Joo-Hyuk and Shin Se-Kyung, both seem to forget how to move their faces). 😻 The 2018 fantasy romance A KOREAN ODYSSEY, also known as HWAYUGI (in which Lee Seung-gi prances around like the rockstar monkey god he truly is) 😻 And finally the 2019 modern romance WHEN THE CAMELLIA BLOOMS (in which Gong Hyo-jin and Kang Ha-Neul live quiet domestic lives and also battle serial killers apparently). You can listen by searching for the Lee Evie Korean Drama Podcast on your favourite podcast streaming platform, or you can follow the link below: https://leeevie.com/2020/01/16/kdrama-podcast-a-korean-odyssey-when-the-camellia-blooms-and-the-bride-of-habaek-a-first-episode-challenge/ #whenthecamelliablooms #leeseunggi #namjoohyuk #shinsekyung #brideofthewatergod #brideofhabaek #akoreanodyssey #hwayugi #kdrama #koreandrama #kdramathoughts #koreandramathoughts #kdramapodcast #koreandramapodcast #kdramareview #koreandramareview #leeeviekoreandramapodcast #leeeviekdramapodcast #kdramas #koreandramas

I visited Korea a few years ago and had the most incredible time. This photo I took while visiting the absolutely beautiful #gyungbokgung Palace in #seoul ❤️ I can't wait to go back!

I really love this photo of #namjihyun in her drama #100daysmyprince 😻 . . One thing I really enjoyed about this drama was that for most of it, all the main characters were peasants living small domestic lives, and that was kind of refreshing for a #sageuk and a little unusual. I really liked it❤️ . . #koreandramathoughts #koreandrama #kdramathoughts #koreandramathoughts #kdramapodcast #kdramas #kdrama

Want by Cindy Pon has such a good cover! 😻 . . Blurb: Jason Zhou survives in a divided society where the elite use their wealth to buy longer lives. The rich wear special suits that protect them from the pollution and viruses that plague the city, while those without suffer illness and early deaths. Frustrated by his city’s corruption and still grieving the loss of his mother, who died as a result of it, Zhou is determined to change things, no matter the cost. With the help of his friends, Zhou infiltrates the lives of the wealthy in hopes of destroying the international Jin Corporation from within. Jin Corp not only manufactures the special suits the rich rely on, but they may also be manufacturing the pollution that makes them necessary. Yet the deeper Zhou delves into this new world of excess and wealth, the more muddled his plans become. And against his better judgment, Zhou finds himself falling for Daiyu, the daughter of Jin Corp’s CEO. Can Zhou save his city without compromising who he is or destroying his own heart? #bookstagram #books #book #bookworm #booklover #booklovers #booklove #bookcover #bookcovers #read #reading #lovereading #readYA #readingYA #youngadultbooks #yacommunity #loveYA #WritingCommunity

I adore this #kdrama #whoareyouschool2015 😻😻 it is a favourite of mine!! I'm lucky though, because I shipped the correct couple when I watched it, so didn't end up with my heart broken, haha😻 . . #kdramas #kdrama #koreandrama #koreandramas #kimsohyun #yooksungjae #namjoohyuk

Anyone read this one? I am really keen to try it out as I love #historicalfiction 😻😻 Here is the blurb: . . It is 1866, and young Walter Moody has come to make his fortune upon the New Zealand goldfields. On the stormy night of his arrival, he stumbles across a tense gathering of twelve local men who have met in secret to discuss a series of unexplained events: A wealthy man has vanished, a prostitute has tried to end her life, and an enormous fortune has been discovered in the home of a luckless drunk. Moody is soon drawn into the mystery: a network of fates and fortunes that is as complex and exquisitely ornate as the night sky. Richly evoking a mid-nineteenth-century world of shipping, banking, and gold rush boom and bust, The Luminaries is a brilliantly constructed, fiendishly clever ghost story and a gripping page-turner. . . #bookstagram #books #bookworm #bookcover #bookcovers #read #reading #lovereading #amreading #booklover #booklovers #booklove #read

I adored this #kdrama and really enjoyed chatting about it on my podcast!! #leeeviekoreandramapodcast . . #hellomytwenties #koreandrama #kdramas #kdramapodcast #koreandramapodcast
