Hi Oters!

I've been watching History of Salaryman, Operation Proposal and Skip Beat this week.

The former one is a hoot! its getting dragging at some points but overall very enjoyable. The actors are amazing.

I've watched the Japanese ver. of OP before and honestly felt it was dragging for 8 episodes. Watching the korean one now, i cant imagine how the story can stretch for 16 episodes, its getting on my nerves already. Still, I adore YSH and PEB together so i continue watching.

For Skip Beat, its getting better now compared to the first few episodes. I love watching the scenes when the characters are acting. Gong Xi is awesome and crazy lol, Ivy is great at playing her. and i adore the friendship between the girls and the main couple.

Looking forward to The king 2hearts. The changing in title is just ridiculous from The King -> King -> King 2hearts -> The King 2hearts -> The King 2hearts (adding space! what difference does that make? @_@)
but i adore seunggi and HJW is awesome. So i'm seriously hoping the drama will turn out a pleasant surprise. The trailer looks promising.

oh, another drama i watch this week is Shut Up Flower Boy Band.

*Spoiler alert*

but i stopped at episode 3/4 because i couldnt continue watching how their friends were not that affected by Byung Hee's death except for Ji Hyuk. maybe its the acting, but I felt for Byung Hee so much prior to that and he was the only character i cared for, watching how their friends can still joke around and move on so fast make me so disappointed. and it breaks my heart how it seems Ji Hyuk will get the girl that Byung Hee like so much.

A lot of people are raving about this show so i'm wondering if i can get over it after some more episodes..

One more thing, how are some of you able to write comments through your phones? I get on the internet and dramabeans on my phone but it won't let me see the comments, just shows me the thread and how many comments there are.

Is there like a switch I need to turn on or off? I'm so illiterate when it come to technology, I swear.

You click on the "read this post" link of Open Thread. Then click on the "skip to comments" link. Finally click on the "838 responses" or whatever number it is currently. Then scroll down past the insert comment and scroll through the messages.

It might be the way your phone is set up. On my blackberry, I literally just get the DB page and go through it like I'm on a really tiny computer. Actually, I have a function called Column View that makes all the sections linear. It helps a lot b/c then I don't have to zoom in and scroll across all the time.

What kind of phone do you have, if you don't mind sharing? If nothing else, I work with a fair number of geeks and a pretty rad IT guy. I can maybe have it figured out for you before the next OT.
