Being OCD, I slogged through the entire exhaustive compilation of K-drama blog links created by OutsideSeoul, and have gathered my favorites. I may have skipped quite a few well-written, insightful blogs for arbitrary reasons such as layouts that appeared a bit too cluttered for my tastes, but after a point, it’s grueling work skimming through 50+(?), 100+(?) drama links.
