Just realised that I have been in a drama slump for almost a year. No dramas interest me anymore.. and I don’t even read DB recaps anymore. Which is yikess… 😱😱 my last k-drama was Rich Man tho.. and I watched it in pain and agony coz the bad storyline, bad characterisation and mediocre acting. I admitted watching it till the end solely bcoz of my love to Suho.. Ohh… The pain… 😭😭
I miss k-drama tho.. My mind is currently preoccupied with EXO and Xiuhan fanfics.. but I really do miss watching a good drama with slow burn romance storyline that can twist my heart and tore it apart. Which reminds me with The King In Love… Yes, this drama has so many flaws.. But I love the lingering feeling between the 3 main characters, a feeling of loving someone that you can’t have.. I love this drama so much to the point of me getting into a petty shipping fanwar (team RinSan vs team WonSan).. and I never so worked up on shipping before.. LOL 😂😂
Anw… This is one of my fave scene in TKIL… and I wish someday I can find a drama that can pick my interest again soon..

      Thankfully no… It was crazy enough to have fanwar in youtube comments and instagram.. 😅😅
      I heard the fanwar in soompi was supertoxic… I tried to take a look due to curiousity and left immediately after I saw some of the comments.. I need to keep my sanity.. LOL 😂
      TKIL will always be my fave drama… Sadly it was a bit different with the novel’s storyline. But I still love both version..

          Oh yes! I hopped over to soompi just to see how absurd it was. It’s perfectly alright to choose sides, favor one character or even an actor over another. However, that fiasco made me realize how delulu fandoms can be.

            I remember reading comments about the last episode where wonsan shippers believed that Rin is the badguy coz he ‘forced’ San to return the kingdom’s emblem(?), and San only wants to be with Won but Rin cock-blocked them. I was like… Are we watching the same drama?? LOL…

        And we also had fanwar in DB’s recap comment section.. I remembered TKIL recaps had more than 100 comments, most of them are about team wonsan vs team rinsan… Ot was wild!!

    TKIL- my favorite kdrama romance. I think it’s all because of Hong Jong Hyun’s Rin – the most swoonworthy kdrama character I’ve come across.

        I think he has a new drama coming soon, right? A remake of Absolute Boyfriend?? 🤔 I am not sure he will play as the robot or the human friend..

        He has some new drama coming up but again, he’s the second lead. Never mind, it’s all deja vu for me.

          So… He is the robot then?? In the japanese manga, the heroine ends up with her human friend (eventho the main story and loveline is between the girl and her robot).. So if HJH plays the second lead means he is the 2nd guy who gets the girl in the end, or the 1st guy who doesn’t get the girl?? Damn… It’s TKIL 2.0 😱😱

            Nope, if I am not mistaken, HJH plays the human and Yeo Jin Goo is playing the robot. I adore Yeo Jin Goo but so did I with Im Si Wan. Yet look at what happened.

      Agree… Never knew HJH can be so handsome and swoon-worthy after his appearance in Scarlet Heart. I think the drama’s stylists loved him too.. He had the best handbook and hairstyle… 😍
