While streaming platforms these days are overloaded with content, sometimes there is nothing better than a good old comedy series to help you forget everything that is going on in the world. Sex and The City came out in 1998 but it is one of those evergreen serials that never gets old.

The show starts this weekend. The SBS show is extra special for it sees Lee Min Ho return to acting after his military service. Legends of the Blue Sea actor stars opposite Kim Go Eun on the show.

A thing I most certainly regret not doing in 2018 was watch Bohemian Rhapsody in a theatre.
