Still the best.

During a visit to his motherland, a Korean-Italian mafia lawyer gives an unrivaled conglomerate a taste of its own medicine with a side of justice.

In 2021, Vincenzo became one of the top 10 TV shows on Netflix worldwide and reached the fourth rank on April 26. It also ranked fourth on Forbes' list of the most-viewed Kdramas on Netflix that year.

Not Netflix or Amazon, but Paramount ÷

Worth a watch.

Another fantastic Kdrama: TAXI DRIVER (2021)

Rainbow Taxi Company and the taxi driver, Do-gi, regain justice that Korean society has lost by seeking revenge on criminals who get away with their evil deeds.

One Piece on Netflix is really good.
Very weird but very good.

Yes. I still watch it whenerver it is repeated.
And no-one really knows what finally happened, but we think we do.

The greatest! This scene towards the end of the series... dude. Tony's heartfelt line "So, after all that's said and done; after all complainin' 'n' the cryin', and all the fuckin' bullshit: is this all there is?" stings every time. It's relevant now more than ever.

Teen Regime (2023)



In 202X, Prime Minister Tsuguaki Washida aims to develop human resources for Japan, ridiculed as "Sunset Japan" after the collapse of its economy due to the aging population and rising unemployment rate. He orders Kiyoshi Taira to plan a local city governed by young leaders using artificial intelligence. Aonami bids to be the experimental city, and political AI Solon selects four young people as cabinet ministers, including Aran Maki, the 17-year-old Prime Minister.

Lovely K-drama

He looks a right smug wanker

He's actually very sweet. The drama is will-they-won't they story between him and his sister's older friend. Apparently, even a 4-year age gap is considered taboo in Korea. Of course, there's the "crazy" ex and annoying parents to worry about, plus office gossip and corruption. The soundtrack is great – Stand by your man, and a Drifters cover by Bruce Willis (I didn't realise ol' Brucey could sing.) I know, I know! It's girly and silly! But I enjoy fluffy shite sometimes.

Bruce Willis: sings a love song
