Weightlifting Fairy Kim Bok-joo

 Finished another South Korean television series and an American movie.

Weightlifting Fairy Kim Bok-joo (Lee Sung-kyung) is a young woman chasing her dream of weightlifting.  She develops a crush on her childhood friend's older brother Jung Jae-yi.  Jung Joon-hyung (Nam Joo-yuk) teases her, plays along with her going to a diet clinic so she can be near Jae-yi.  But soon, he finds himself falling for Bok-joo.

It is cute.  Relatable.  I luv their bickering.  Joon-hyung must have taken it from his aunt and uncle who took him under their wing when her mom left him to remarry.

I also watched Things Heard & Seen, an American horror film about a family who leaves Manhattan for a remote home in the tiny hamlet of Chosen, New York when the husband lands a job teaching art history in a small college.  This is when the wife discovers that both her husband and their new home harbor sinister secrets.
