Happy Friday!!!!!! :D

Just saw first shooting scene of Playful Kiss on viikii, andddddd KHJ's acting is.......flat.....*sigh*

Currently watching 'Capital Scandal' , hilarious drama with KJH on the top.

Have a nice weekend!

yeahh.. friday! currently watching bloody monday 2 and coffee house. :)

I'm watching My Girlfriend is a Gumiho, and I'm totally loving the leads! they are both adorable! I don't find it laugh out loud funny most of the time, but the cuteness, random events and pacing is just right up my alley.

As for Playful Kiss , well, I think I'm one of the few who aren't excited for it.

MGIAG is making mine life happy .... thanks for the wonderful script of Hong sister and amazing acting and dying cuteness of Shin minha (MI HO) .... anyway today is friday like rest of the week days ..... nothing new ...all of you happy friday and enjoy your weekend .... and don't forget to love and watch your fav k drama .... :-)

Nah, I'm not really excited for Playful Kiss either XD Something feels a bit off about it. Still, I'll surely watch the first episode ^__^

Anyway, happy weekend to everybody!!! =D Hope you'll have a great one.

HAPPY FRIDAY.

i went to an interview this morning, I made some bad answers, however, there were some good signs.
This week I'll take some time to rest (watching dramas, I'm now attract to Gloria - I find myself often attach to MBC's dramas) and wait for job result.

I can't wait for your recap on I am Legend!!

TGIF everyone! just want to say i'm feeling very excited watching MGIAG...i feel the same way i felt watching YAB... Hong Sisters really make me go crazy with their stories... speaking of YAB, it is currently airing here in the philippines and guess what??? i'm watching it everyday! i just can't miss it...and though i've watched it more than 5 times already, i still feel the same excitement as before...

i'm still wishing ANJELL visits my country... please please please....

loving every minute of MGIAG! luv luv! luv for lee seung gi!

I love YAB!
I love MGIAG!
I love Hong sister!

WOO~!

*sisters. heh :))

Thank God it's friday. :D

For everyone thinking but not sure about whether to check out I Am Legend, here's come's a First Impression review (up to ep 6)

http://thundie.wordpress.com/2010/08/20/i-am-legend-sbs-2010-first-impressions/

kaedejun is doing awesome recaps here at DB, but since music is featured so prominently in this drama, I highly recommend watching it if the drama looks like your cup of tea. :-)

Can't believe it's Friday already~ My eyes are totally swollen because I randomly decided to watched the last two episodes of Damo last night. Yeah, not the world's most brilliant move at all. But it was worth it. Ha Ji Won - I wuv you.

Can't WAIT for Playful Kiss - KHJ can't act but I'm hoping he won't have to and that the cuteness of the story will make up for it. Plus, his GORGEOUSNESS.

I want to start Gumiho too but currently finishing up Winter Sonata and making my way through Baker King, which is surprisingly deeply enjoyable

TGIF!

I plan to spend the weekend catching up on Coffee House, which I know is a little belated, but I prefer to watch dramas only when ALL the subbed episodes are out. That way I can watch as many episodes as I want within a few days until the next one!

Javabeans and Girlfriday, thanks for all your recaps! (: I'm looking forward to the next episode review of My Girlfriend is a Gumiho!

TGIF!!! Can't wait to get off of this stressful work week and catch up on my dramas!

After seeing the Hong sisters' huge fanbase, I feel like teaming up with my sister to write a script :D

And am I the only one that enjoys but isn't heads over heels for MGIAG? I love Shin Mina's protrayal of gumiho & Na Min Woo's hotness but it's not the same "enjoy" as I felt with You're Beautiful. Just an opinion though!

I'm enjoying My Girlfriend is a Gumiho so much. But I am starting to dread when September rolls around. My self-discipline is going go through a real ordeal. LOL.

And I started a weight loss blog! Hopefully this year I'll be shedding the pounds!

Happy Friday~

miz sarah, the text before the cut is 7 kinds of googly and woogly, which roughly translates to messy (in armenian, i believe) :P

small beans. :)

HAPPY FRIDAAAAAAY!! can't wait for more gumiho! shin mina is SURPRISINGLY quirky and funny. :P

Only two more eps of Comrades. :(

I'm starting to love My girlfriend is a Gumiho almost as much as I love You are Beautiful
i also rly love King of Baking. The actor that plays Kim Tak Gu overacts A LOT, but i find myself looking forward to each episode because of the AMAZING cliff hangers

Just wanted to talk about this issue, because it came up in one of the posts earlier this week:

How young is too young to look at and think "Wow, I want!" I mean, I started feeling guilty for looking at Rain (three years younger than me and justified in my head because my husband is three years older than me), but then I saw T.O.P., and I know I'm just going to H3LL for that one. I know that I will never touch these boys in real life, even given half of a chance, but at what point does a person become "bad" for looking?

And let's not use words like 'cougar' because that just screams of a double standard and poor education. My dad is eight years older than my mom, and he never got looked at weird for marrying her.

Any thoughts, ladies (and gents)?

TGIF Peeps!

Woh~ I'm addicted to IAL and MGIG but wait... I was disappointed reading JB and GF didn't find King of Baking calling to either of them so I was curious and spared time to watch a few first episodes of KB starting yesterday..... OOOOH, IT'S SOOOO GOOD! If you like the puppy love story in the beginning of WISFC then it is more definite you will like KB's puppy love story. And BK plot's thicken better and better as those episodes grow in volume, before I knew it, I'm up to ep.14 blessed w/ a free Friday to really satisfy my current obsession of Kim Tak Gu. I wouldn't be drawn to any eye-candy here rather based on the effervescent morale of principles; it's baking like holy yeast fermenting drama heated as buttered up bread and satisfying a hungry sinful appetite.

Should you both [JB and GF] reconsider and watch it? My advice, pause on the Gumiho GF rerun 'cos its full on protein [Gumiho loves her beef] and really give King of Baking a fair chance 'cos you know you haven't had enough carbs [and fiber, it's 2010 more health conscience^ , ^] in your diet yet. LOL!

Hello everyone. I am recently rewatching the Tamna Island series on Viikii, the full one, and some thing has been on my mind since I was watching the original one. In the series, there's this one background song that is regularly play throughout, but it is not included in the OST album. It has this sad tone to it, and also very soothing to listen to.
It was played, i believed, in the first episode when Beojin went to deep sea diving with her mother's group, and after being scolded, she told her mom she should have give birth to an ox instead. After that scene is when she was crying on the hill, and the music was playing then. I want to know whether this song was also played in another series, and what is the name of it. It was also played when Park Gyu forced a kiss on Beojin when he thought William was dead in the short version.

If anyone recognizes the song, I hope you can help me T_T I've been asking around for a while but nobody knows it.

Happy OT Friday/Saturday EVERYONE!

Started Giant...the tears have stopped. I would say around ep 6. I'm sure it won't last but my 'ducts sure thank me.
Saw the 1st ep of Gloria, am waiting for Jejongwon to be uploaded to DF and watching/re-watching Tamra. Like alot of others, I'm watching GGf and think its precious. I was wondering why others don't seem to like it at all though. At times things like that are fascinating to me. I get not loving it, especially if you are the comparing type, however its adorable and funny, and not over-the-top. I also like what the Hong sisters are doing so far with the myth and what SMA brings to her character.
Oh-ho I think that's all the update I'm willing to type. My plan to to get through Giant 10 today. I want to smile at least once, while watching this show ;)

Have a great weekend everyone...*toodles*

I'm loving My Girlfriend is a Gumiho. Can't wait until next week's episode. I love how, with the Hong sisters, you can't predict what's going to happen next!

I'm not putting my hopes high for Playful Kiss. I didn't really like the plot to the TW version. So if they follow the TW version, then the main couple will only have 2 kisses.....

Can't wait for SungKyanKwan Scandal!

My cat chewed through my earplugs today T.T He's already done that to my cellphone charger, a pair of stereo speakers and the baby monitor! Grr
LOVING My girlfriend is a Gumiho ^^ Especially SMA, she's charming, convincing and perfect for the role. Can't wait to see the next episode!
Can't believe it's back to school in a week. Then I'll be saying truly heartfelt TGIFs again... Suppose this time MGIAG and PK will be the lighthearted getaways, as YB was last year. At least there's that =)

Hi all.
Recently, I delved into some 2007 circa dramas, and have been re-watching "Thank You", with Jang Hyuk and Gong Hyo Jin.

It's a really cute and quirky drama.

I suggest it for anyone who can handle comedy and some tears.

Happy Friday to everyone!

Wooo! First week of the new semester finisheddddd! I feel accomplished. :D

On another note, I am so excited about Playful Kiss. I think it's going to be really good like brain cotton candy or really so bad it's good. There is entertainment value to be had there either way.

Hi everyone. this is a rant about baker king.
SPOILERS AHEAD FOR BAKER KING up to and including ep 4.

I started watching Baker King Kim Tak Gu last night and I really wish this site had recaps on it. Because I don't know if it's just me but the show is so frustrating. Everyone is just a damn hypocrite or has a major fault. Was it supposed to be this way? Like the grandma. She's a stubborn old mule but calls ma jun stubborn. And i get that the childhood part is set back in the day, but is it REALLY the wife's fault that she couldn't bear a son.. cuz from what i learned in biology, i dont think so. And the grandma treats her terribly for that.

And why don't anyone care about the damn kids? What kind of father is the father? HE'S the one that seduced his maid. And him and grandma acts like it was his right to.. wtf?! LWAJEFLWKJAEAlwakjef;wajeflawjflaw.

THe maid.. she was a slut for sleeping with the husband. Sure she had no choice since she lived there and was attracted to him, but she barely put up a fight for... i guess she has no principles on this. And sure i can sympathize with the consequences of her life after getting pregnant, but it was her fault. And she obviously cannot keep a promise--ie stay away from dae soong.

GAH. I'm pointing out these three cuz it seems like the show is trying to make them out to be the good people. Maybe future episodes will show some of their regret--if they have any. buttholes.

and ma jun. he's not a nice little boy at all, but i don't like the way the grandmother treats him. and the father is not fatherly at all, except with tak gu. That so irks me. Can't parents treat their children equally.

And I'm guessing the show meant to do this and cuz it was back in the day when sons were everything, but all the sexism is awfejlwaejflwkjfaj. I feel bad for the two girls.

i'll stop here. restrained myself from cursing many times.

OMG! what a day.. I'm still at work. I'm sporting a headache. 2 more hours till i get to go home.. ahhh :(. Oo i schedule a massage session. Can't wait for that!

I'm having a huge crush on Jung Il Woo right now, since I've just finished The Return of Iljimae this week. The drama has WOWed me in everything - acting, plot, cinematography etc.. I started ROI with very low expectation (regardless the ratings JB & GF gave), but strangely being pulled to it. The emotions of ROI had bugged me for days, and left me feeling disturbed the whole week. The watching of ROI is like your whole heart being jumbled up and pulled slowly at every corner that you experience every emotive sense you can find in it. Gosh, I can't even describe that clearly! :D

This is definitely going straight to my all time list!

So I was chatting with Ender's Girl about KimuTaku in Space, and she mentioned she's more fantasy and less sci/fi, but she has watched Robotech.

And to no one's surprise, she's a Lisa girl. Like, is there a single female viewer on Team Minmei? Yeah, only The Lost Boy is her sole defender, and he's not here to defend her.

For all BG watchers - Anders or Apollo? And no, you hate Starbuck is not an answer choice.

happy Friday!!

Just wanted to share w/ my OT family that I had a drs appt today.. and i got to hear my baby's heartbeat. 160 steady beats per minute. strong baby. i'm so excited and thankful!! I just sped thru the first trimester.. 12 weeks and 1 day. YAY!!! 32 more weeks to go :)

I sell my life for MY GIRLFRIEND IS A GUMIHO!!hahahaa,..

it's been like forever waiting 1 week before another episode to come out,..how could they do that to me??hehe,.

Continued from #148
@janna
What about the skirt-thing in episode 27, did she kill Jung-shikeeh's flower garland to make that?
What can I say they're the fashion family... appreciated how both siblings wore co-ordinated his and hers business suits in ep25, there were cherry-reds, black and lots of glitter between them, and it's only 1981 yet -- wooh!

What is it about HTS and dead people being not dead? Poor guy even has a ghost next to him in the main poster. (People may whinge about the main poster being fug, but hey it has TWO Seung-mos, the Major in shades, a bolt of lightning over Min-woo's head(!) and a bow-tie wearing ghostie in it, what's not to love?)

Can I just say, I'm SO proud of 523/4 and James Lee both. Oh, hell yeah. Swoon...

Oh crap, did I just show him my 'angry face'? But I'm meant to be wide-eyed, sweet and carefree thus making the world a bright, yellow-coloured place --- solution: smile and wave, just smile and wave'' Did that elicit a smile? Good, now off I skip.

@Serendipity
Bingo! Yeah, they're completely different animals. Comrades being a hard-hitting, serious, war drama, whereas Giant is a period epic purely made to entertain (and move) us and as much as it's severely heartwrenching and tragic (my poor, bleeding heart), it's fictitous and therefore has room to play around and be campy and humourous in parts.
I like that the humour in Giant has many different forms, you have Seung-mo and his sophisticated, ironic, blink-and-you'll-miss-it brand of humour, Gang-mo and his black humour -- y'know like ripping some gangster's beard off or the ''come, shampoo my hair'' scene. And then you have certain characters who also happen to have a comical side like the love-to-hate Jung-shik (who we all love to laugh AT), the always filthy-mouthed Park So-tae and a witty Mijoo (''if you smack gum really loudly while riding the bus - you feel GREAT!'' Maybe that wasn't as funny in itself but in context and person she said it to, I found it funny).

Someone else was asking the same question about when the show 'lightens up' when they'd started watching it, I was like, 'oh second half of episode 4, definitely'. They got back to me saying, ''but that was horrible, you said it gets lighter'' -- I don't know, I guess it's all subjective in the end -- not everyone laughed and was amused by the shoeshining kids' street brawls then. But… the shoeslapping part was hilarious and the cute fat kid with the earmuffs who'd pretend-kick Gang-mo and say ''aiyoosh, aiyoosh!''

@MGFiaG:
I actually really, really like MGFiaG and feel ample chemistry between the two leads. However I've not seen beyond episodes 1-2, same with I Am Legend and Gloria. I guess it's a mood thing for me, my heart's just too into Giant and Sandglass and I'm savouring each of them so much I wouldn't want any other show with a different kind of tone to clash with them. I think since Giant's started I've only been picked other shows that serve as a complementary condiment to add to the main feast that is Giant - kinda thing.

And as a fan of Sung Dong-il, I swear he's not being wasted in MGiaG, he's Chow Yun-Fat-Lite - aight.

I tried giving Revenge of the Gumiho a chance and had to leave it. Special effects seem off and kinda cheesy. I wanted to stick with it but sadly could not. I haven't seen any comments but it looks like it is decent in the ratings. Can't wait to see MGiaG after reading the recaps but it's not showing in the west coast yet. Have a great weekend everyone!

i have a thing for musical or theater actors. what is it that make them so charismatic, commanding, irresistable. eventhough some of em are not classically handsome. of course there are some with the whole package like kang ji hwan (i think his girlish screams and squeals are one of his mightiest weapons!).

besides looking forward to dramas like the musical, i'm also whetting my appetite on a sampling platter of (korean) Hedwig actors. my sight is on oh man seok now. he's really good, he's won me over in a mere 2 episodes of vineyard man.

So right now I'm off and on watching three shows. Giant, I am Legend, and Gloria. They have a common trait in using music to mold key scenes.

Of the three, which diva actress sings best? I can't say for sure. I could do a without having to hear Gloria again. Why couldn't they sing Bohemian Rhapsody every night. That's like every song in one song! I'd never get bored of that. The Gloria song is spun so much we can't even make a drinking game off of it; you'd be in the hospital or dead - even if your beverage of choice was water.

Watching Running Man Gu right now. :))))) Baek SungHyun!!!!

But fangirling aside, it's quite a nice and short drama. The script is well done and the acting is decent.

Hey guys! Question for anyone who has an opinion! (which I'm sure we all do)

I've started selling jewelry online and I want to start a line based on dramas. My first thought was pig-rabbit earrings (channeling YB, you know), but I want to hear what you guys think would make good jewelry based off of your fave (or not so fave) dramas. make sure to tag is "@staples" so I see it!

Thanks guys!

Joseon X-Files/Secret Investigation Record - 1st episode rocked. Thank you, tvN. :D
