Eric v. Kang-woo, the twitter wars
by girlfriday
Wherein Eric argues with self. Because why not, really? Eric is one of those stars known for being off-the-wall (he’s pretty infamous for being a 4-D Hallyu star), and it seems he’s outdone himself this time, creating a twitter account for his Myung-wol the Spy character Kang-woo, and then tweeting back and forth as Eric and Kang-woo. Yeah. He’s that loony.
The conversation goes a little like this:
Kang-woo: Eric-sshi, do you know who I am? I didn’t think you’d know… it’s me, Hallyu star Kang-woo.
Kang-woo: So Eric-sshi does know who I am. Ah, is a Hallyu star’s existence something the whole country knows?
Eric: Shut up, you ass. I don’t like you, starting with the way you look.
Kang-woo: The way I look… they say I look like you. What do you think? But don’t you honestly think I’m a little better?
Eric: Arrogant bastard… Sucker, go braid your hair!!! Are you at least eating, Hallyu star? Pfft.
Kang-woo: I don’t have time to eat because I’m so busy…
Eric: Don’t eat. Go shoot [your fake drama-in-drama] Assassin. Han Ye-seul, Fighting!
Kang-woo: Eat well too, Eric sunbae-nim. I’ll follow you. Especially because you look like me.
girlfriday: Hey, have you seen this Eric tweet? It’s fucking hilarious.
javabeans: OMG I’m reading it now. Why is he so… ??? It defies words. What a nut.
girlfriday: A complete loon. Hey, the fifth tweet down, how would you translate that slang?
javabeans: Er… well, the second part literally means to…braid…the…hair? The first part is like “sucker…”
girlfriday: Sucker braid your hair?!
javabeans: Hahaha. Sucka, go braid your hair! Why is Eric SO WEIRD?
girlfriday: I don’t know, but I LOVE IT.
javabeans: I love that he’s writing in character, replete with appropriate jondae. Kang-woo’s being polite to his sunbae and Eric’s all pissy to the poseur.
girlfriday: Yeah. Like Eric’s the actual top-star, and Kang-woo’s the wannabe top-star.
javabeans: Hee hee. I’m giggling at his gripe over Kang-woo’s looks. It’s like in the pre-broadcast Myung-wol interviews where he was like, “I’m a lot like Kang-woo. First off, I look like him.”
girlfriday: And his send-off, like “go shoot your little fake drama, asshole.” HA.
javabeans: To which Kang-woo dutifully replies, all respectful, “Ah yes, sunbae. I will do so, sunbae. I will follow you, sunbae.”
girlfriday: It’s like a meta-mirror funhouse. I like that he begrudgingly looks after his hoobae too, all “are you eating?” like a mom.
javabeans: But it’s taunting, ‘cause he adds, “…you Hallyu star” in a mocking way.
girlfriday: Like he’s patronizing the little wannabe. Hee.
javabeans: Well, the pipsqueak DID introduce himself as “It’s me, Hallyu star Kang-woo!”
girlfriday: I love how that’s become such a universal joke. “I’m a Hallyu star!” = overblown ego the size of Jupiter.
javabeans: Gah, now I want Eric to cameo on Myung-wol . Er. I mean, Eric to play Eric playing a cameo on Myung-wol.
girlfriday: OH MY GOD, my head would implode from the awesomeness. And the rift it would cause in the space-time continuum.
javabeans: This is how we know it is a good idea.

My first reaction was... ommo... bichoso...
Seriously Eric is nutty and out there and he embrace it as much as we love it...
I think when Dongwon goes on Strong Heart, he trolls saying Eric send him the funniest/weirdest selca ever... There was this one he was in a golfbag? Dress like Pokemon or was it Kerropi? Ahh Eric ah... dun change...
And now... Myungwol is on KBS... if only it was on SBS, gather will he go on Strong Heart, we know how much Kang Ho Dong loves Shinwa when they use to go on X-man... good times!

An Eric cameo on Myung-wol is an inspired idea. How do we make this happen?
I forget that twitter can be fun sometimes. I should use it more often...

Eric guest starring as Eric would be awesome, but I'd be happy if any of the Shinhwa members not in military service showed up. It could be epic...

"And the rift it would cause in the space-time continuum."
I'd so risk the possible global/universal disaster to see Eric playing Eric doing a cameo. It'd be even better if he played Kang-Woo (split screen) and they argued with each other.

This is, quite possibly, my most favorite post I've ever read on this site. So much so that I came out of non-commenting site stalking status just to write how much I love it! I freaking love you two, and I freaking love Eric!

hahaha, fantastic! Maybe Eric can comment on the slap in the last episode? He needs to depend Kang-woo or maybe scold him for doing so.

HAHAHAHA. I really can understand why he's insulting himself, srsly... Kang Woo is a moron with split personality disorder, pumped up ego and one of the most messed up main characters ever. But I still love Eric and his freak ways XD
