HOW IS KIM BUM OUR FAVOURITE RIGHT NOW? Judy and Linda felt gleeful during episodes 2-4 of “Tale of the Nine Tailed” (구미호뎐), a TVN supernatural romance starring Lee DongWook, Jo BoAh and Kim Bum.

We were so disappointed by the kiss between Yeon (Lee DongWook) and AhEum (Jo BoAh) in the flashback. This HAS to get better, right? Kim Bum's ability to switch between douchiness and vulnerability is really impressing us. Linda watched a significant portion of the episodes through her fingers because of the horror. Happy Halloween, everyone!

Digressions:

6:56 - What’s a Canadian accent, anyway? Click here for the Globe and Mail article, "We say aboot, eh?" and check out the Wired series with Erik Singer, dialect coach

13:38 - We are looking forward to "Seo Bok" (서복), sci fi film starring Park BoGum and Gong Yoo

15:46 - Judy watched "Enola Holmes"

18:18 - Linda finished season 4 of "Kim's Convenience"
