Flower Boy Ramyun Shop
Flower Boy Ramyun Shop 16 episodes
Yang Eun Bi is a 25-year-old woman struggling in career, love and a strained relationship with her only family. Things gets more complicated when a young chaebol Cha Chi Soo keeps popping up in every step of her way all the way to the Flower Boy Ramyun Shop.
The drama has layers and layers of twists and it gets sweeter and at times silly as the layers are unraveled. I don't find the actress that pretty but if you think about it she's not like the usual pretty types pretending to be ugly and she plays her character well. The reverse harem can be two-fold. The three guys who are really after her and the pretty boys she's working/living with at ramyun shop/home. Ironically, my most favorite scene in the series is from Yang Eun Bi's bestfriend and coach during the wedding. Overall, I'd rate this drama as feel good, refreshing series. Something to watch after some bouts of heavy drama marathon.

Mystery Pictures/ Upcoming Manga
Mystery picture # 1: From Betsuma. Is this an all-star cast cover or a manga?
Mystery picture # 2 from Girl's Style
Upcoming manga: 1-nen 5-kumi Ikimono Gakari not yet in MAL. This is a wallie too.
Polls: What you like most about RHG/ Monthly Wallie
Thanks to 315 people who voted. I only found out through this poll that people prefer animes and mangas way more than dramas. I'm guilty with focusing more on dramas nowadays (rh and non-rh). There's nothing much to catch up with animes but I do have a backlog of mangas. I promise to give you more manga reviews this year. On the same note, last year's highlight would be the slew of 4 animes and 3 gender-bender live action dramas for summer. Let's hope 2012 will be have more rh titles! Here's to start of a new year from Hisayo Nakajo's January wallie of Hana Kimi.
