K-drama ● Review: Sell Your Haunted House
Attempts to be a supernatural thriller-drama. Formulaic in many respects. Nothing bad but nothing special either.

K-drama ● Review: Hotel del Luna
My Verdict: An amusing supernatural-fantasy drama. Excellent cast. Beautifully lit and shot. But female lead’s past is not well handled.
