Thank you for your praise. Please do not hurt yourself too much with the laughing. I don't want to be charged with anything criminal. "Woman found giggling near death, after hospitalization found to have k-limericks bookmarked."

oh the sadness of it... I worry

I love warehouse 13, lots of goofy fun. And I also watch the worst directing on the planet that is Dong Yi. Can't get enough of the big eyed shock. Or the twisted mouth of the current queen's brother. Loving it! The cameras linger so long on every shot and accentuate every bad angle and over done spit-taked face. Truly the phrase "so bad it is good" fits this show.

Antique Bakery was serious eye candy, but it was also one of the only BL adaptations I have seen in Kdrama/cinema. Then again it was crazy popular in japan as a manga and an anime. Both of which I loved.

They did abbreviate the story a lot to crush everything into a single movie. If you liked the film I would watch the anime to get the whole story. It also has many more hysterical scenes.

@supah: That's right, sharing is caring. But you can have all the CPY you want girl hahaha. Aww, I kid.

I just realized there was a show I was meaning to watch, then went off my radar, then I remembered because it's gonna be on tonight and it's called Moteki with Moriyama Mirai and other people.. one who happens to be Kikuchi Rinko. Yes, that Kikuchi Rinko. (I know she was in Liar Game 2 but bare with me, this show will be more appealing to me). Tetsu no Hone was very dramatic. The other day I was thinking "Where the heck is Takahashi Issei lately" and he was in episode 2. Yes, I was able to spot him in the previews and went "Wait a second.. time to download this".

All the talk about playful kiss... I'm just disinterested it in the first place, I would have been interested if park bo young was in it, she since she's not I don't care to watch it. I don't wish ill on the cast, it just isn't a story I'm interested in. I'd rather watch Gumiho, and I'm interested in the new Bae Doo Na show Gloria.. which is another 50 episodes.. nooo

and I am late
Dearest IPod, don't make me cross

Dude, Jung Bo-suk is one gorgeous, gorgeous man, no really, he is. So thank you.
But, since he has a male fan following, any open fangirling/ogling, may put some of this male audience off him. So I'll like... try and control myself and stuff. (OK, I'll admit, as CPY he's terrifying --- runs!)

Gloria:
You too janna? I'm planning on watching it for Suh Ji-suk (who was great in OB-GYN) who'll be paired opposite Bae Doona. I think it'll just be a casual watch, just skim through it when I'm bored kind of thing, there's no way I could commit myself to another 50 episode-length show.

About Gloria - Yes, yes, yes. How can I deny time with Koreas favorite brother-in-law Lee Chun Hee. (Probably no one calls him this, but I want to. Spread it like wildfire)

I'm surprised you're surprised though, but I'm sure he garnered enough ahjumma love in his High Kick days too.

Lee Chun-hee is great too, and the overall premise. Lounge singers, gangsters and er, rich people... Not like we're not seeing it already in Giant but more the merrier.

@ supah, EoE ending episode and final scene thoughts:

first, I was crying for like, the last ten episodes, off and on, especially any tender moments that I knew were leading to 'that' ending. Every time Dong Wook said 'hyung" I would throw things at the screen and shut the door so I could cry scream rant like the insane woman I was. I actually hoped that it had all been wrong even until the end. (As I said, way way way too invested in Dong Chul!)

But, hey, if I'm going to invest in 56 episodes, I want my payoff.

Final scene: bedazzled, well, I wasn't. On one hand, it was a set-up to explain the sacrifices 'he' made all the way through EoE (father-to-son 'this is how you will live your life'), and it was a total letdown as a payoff. On the other hand, at least it was more consistent with the story flow than other moments. That said, it was a little heartwarming, but not enough after what I went through for 56 episodes.

Sorry, trying to say all of this without giving spoilers, you know? My test, if you will, of whether something was worth it is to ask if I want the hours back, and even with all my angst, I don't want them back. I love the Dong Chul character and I am still hooked to this day. I will watch again when I can have a more critical and less emotional eye ... and probably get my heart robbed all over again.

Forgot to say, as with all melos, I hope for the good and the bad, and I know that Dong Chul could have never been the man he became without the stressors and enemies hat shaped him, as well as the father figures he had.

Also, if, by chance, you mean the last image of SSH, I'm always bedazzled. Seriously, that man takes smoulder to whole new levels for me. I need ovary-gro replacement after watching him in EoE.

As my last post over here, I shall list all my limericks in one spot. (easier for me to find them later :) )

There once was a girl named friday.

She wrote on the superhighway.

while waiting to be kissed.

fangirls got pissed

when showed them all a real Lei.
_____

I once met a gal named Java

whose recaps were hot like lava.

We did a moon dance

when we pulled down our pants

And served fangirls with chianti and fava
______
Ever meet Jang Geun Suk

Long hair perfects his look

A prince no more

He’s leashed on the floor

licking and pawing, I’m hooked.
———–
And what of Bae Yong Jun

As some will follow the moon

his seminal gaze

impregnates those phased

And the legend lives on in toon
______
Siwon and Heechul make out all the time

Fan service they say, and it’s no crime

so innocent the claim

so pure, his fame

but on stage half naked and grinding his prime
______
Have you ever seen my Man won bin?

spring, summer and Autumn he’s a sin

his Guns so fine

this one’s mine

No need to Talk I know I’ll win
______
His name was Kim Rae Won

His clothes were often gone

For a Plum like this

batteries I’ll miss

with Blossomed cheeks till dawn
______
Kim Jae Won his smile so bright

On his teacher he had his sight

He’s a cutey patooty

so she grabbed his booty

and ran with all her might
_______
No way he has a *%$#!

Too pretty to be a chick!

A king or Clown

A drag queen was found

in the army so come back quick.
_______
There once was a boy at a car shop

with no money he’d make them all hop

He then found a girl

in a dress of pearl

and smiled as he made her heart stop.
______
Her name was Kim Sam Soon

Her dancing made men swoon

her hips gave a shake

as she baked a cake

and her boss licked the spoon
_____
Let me dream of Lee Dong Gun

A type B man of friends and fun

as the kiss will tell

Miss Sun-Ah fell

For his charm and perky buns.
______
His name has to be Bi

with chest for all to see

He sings his songs

we pray that it’s long

and pleasing for fans nightly
______
Why’d that Fox forget

a butt her hand had met

In a heart bed

both innocence shed

only she could have regret.
______
I’d never ignore the sun

But TOP is much more fun

He likes to rap

a girl on his lap

and play with his big gun
______
How can he play a priest?

His body’s a sumptuous feast.

Yes he got hitched

and his car was ditched

But I don’t mind the least.
______
Kim Bum has these dimples

no, it’s not that simple

right next to his lips

or next to his hips…

now I have goose pimples
______

What a busy boy was he

Precious Song Joong Ki

A Doctor that skates

or a student that dates

oh make some time for me
________
Still never to be avoided

When kisses he claimed a Boy did

girls love this Flower

and dream of his power

One night to be exploited

That should be all except for those on this page

Can I share my thought, I like strong character of CSW from City Hall, Choi Chul Ho, Lee Dong Wook from Partner. I hope Min Ho wont transform like Bae Young Jun even though I love him on Winter Sonata.
