A moral redemption arc is woefully not enough. Does bookworm-nim (because this ought to be a proper phrase) Moon Yoo-seok have a book attitude redemption arc in store? Aha! Maybe there's an Easter Egg revealing that the Janus character has completed One Hundred Years of Solitude at the age of five.

One of Korea's blind judges, a Seoul National University alum, at work. Their counterparts exist in other countries. Many parts of ex-judge-written legal procedural #ProBono feel fanciful or absurd, but the bit about that solid yet underestimated competency is real.

Wifey checks in on her three husbands' time-travel game, casually tosses a few pieces around and exits. Game later (i.e. #spoiler ) spits out the trio of selves and declares her the victor. Female middle age has never been more badass.

#HeavenlyEverAfter 's Heaven Support Center director is the one hollering at this other scene in #TheJourneyofLegend. Soul transmigrant Mingming should have made a pit stop in his soul orientation session. People, they never change! Flying off buildings just because they're in fantasy realm.

Cabbage Wreckage Trauma Trigger!!! The hollers of the long-suffering vegetables merchant all the way from #AvatarTheLastAirbender can be heard in #TheJourneyofLegend / Go To The Mountains & Sea. Why, the poor mister with no combat skills may be in a martial arts-dream break from his daily grind too.

These spears in #cdrama What A Wonderful World (ft #ZhaoLiying) must have been refashioned from incomplete Time Sticks and auto-summoned from the TVA in #Loki as the same-body inter-selves romance would register a deviation monitor spike even higher than the Lokis' romance across different bodies.

This is Inception. Ziqi ( #DingYuXi ) rescues himself from his soul prison of sorts in #LGIEF but wakes up months later as Mark S. ( #AdamScott ) in #Severance inside another soul prison, from which he must rescue himself again. Never easy.
