It was sometime around three o’clock in the afternoon when the conversation turned, as it sometimes does, to db levels. I have no idea why we even monitor or care what our db level is but our antagonist, Al, is an enigmatic beast; choosing its victims and beneficiaries based on strange opaque ranking systems and it is sometimes a great sense of victory that comes with besting it.
Naturally @sicarius, whose obsession with this labyrinthian and byzantine system mirrors her interest in archaic languages – and who has spent much time in tracking the behaviours of Al in the hope of shedding light on its arbitrary and sometimes devastating decisions – produced some of her dusty data on the clear weighting differentiation between the fan wall and the recap pages.
Our baby Bea, @lugirl131415, the youngest maknae in our maknae line, expressed a wish to level up. And so we exchanged much mirth on the idea that we should park in one of the older, larger, but now abandoned recap threads and have a very strange, very geeky, very Discord party. We are strange but our crazy is our commonality and our combined strength. No one can touch us when we’re United in Weird.
This suggestion brought forth some others on the destination of our Drama Party – Healer! Heirs! – at which point Lee Tennant (that’s me) admitted the awful and terrible truth.
I have never seen Heirs.
So, after much incredulity, mocking and, yes, some envy – a lot of Beans also wish they’d never seen Heirs – it was decided.
Lee Tennant (that’s me) would watch an episode of Heirs a day (or more depending on the availability of the sustenance she would require for such an Odyssey i.e. shitloads of alcohol) and then we would comment in the recap section until it reached 1000 comments. With comments hovering near 700 for many episodes it was decided this would not be too difficult an undertaking and our Baby Bea would hopefully level up and discover the joys of running Errands for all eternity until you start to wonder if Errands are the scope of your entire life and running is all you’ll ever do.
Joining us for this endeavour is also my fellow glutton for punishment @katakawasabi and of course my partner in crime always, @egads. Also @ndlessjoie maybe? I am uncertain on this point.
If you’ve seen Heirs or even if you haven’t, feel free to either a) endure our crazy, just for now or b) join in!
We shall defeat Al AND Heirs, our antagonists two. Even if it kills us.
PS I believe @ndlessjoie is taking bets on how long I last and, let me say, I chose to type this up after two minutes so…
“whose obsession with this labyrinthian and byzantine system mirrors her interest in archaic languages” – there has literally never been a truer comment about me.
I haven’t watched Heirs either, and not just because of the laments, but mostly because (unpopular opinion) I do not like Lee Min Ho nor Park Shin-hye.
Looking forward to reading about your experience, @leetennant
I haven’t seen Heirs either because that hair on LMH made me shudder and The little bit i saw of PSH made me want to smack her head. Maybe i’ll read the recaps.
I, HRH Sicarius Queen of Everything, have also never seen Heirs.
In fact I have sworn of the darn thing, despite several beanies, who shall not be named, and their machinations attempting me to cave.
However, Javabeans’ recaps are infinitely funnier and better written than the offending show, this I know for a fact, thus I will simply be reading those, followed by my usual shitposty comments.
I join LT’s gracious request in asking you to join us, if only because I am bored out of my mind and stirring up fun with Beanies on dB is what dB is for. Obviously.
I watched it back in the day when I didn’t know any better. I watched it all without having an place like db to complain or ask questions. I watched it all and suffered all alone….
You know, Heirs was my third drama, so I actually remember it quite fondly? Probably because I don’t have the faintest idea what happened after episode 5. But, hey, I’d love to join in at some point and ruin what is a presently a decent memory!
You know, if you forget every moment the FL says anything, it wasn’t as horrible as people claim it was. There are far worse offenders out there. You’ll still need a few angsty showers though. 🙂
Even after 6+ years I still have PTSD from watching Heirs. I have never hated a show so much, but kept getting sucked in. But oddly I don’t recall a thing about how it ended.

I feel this will be fun. I dropped heirs at 6 episodes but continued readibg recaps on DB. Let’s see how long you’ll last.

I’m untainted by Heirs because as a total newbie, I read the laments and the cast list. I plan to remain enviable and enjoy your agony from afar.
