hello dramabeans!

love ur blog but this is my first time to post. Just wanted to say that you've helped a lot of k-drama addicts (esp. those who are not koreans) understand what is happening in some of the series. Luv coffee prince and I'm happy to say that I'm one of the addicts always visiting your blog. Btw you said that we can download your songs and I luv luv your songs that you put in your blog. I know this is a terrible question but how can I download your songs...sorry I'm not really good at computer stuff. Please do help. Thanks a lot!!!

It is really refreshing to see that the series is just BASED on the novel and not ABOUT the novel. You can see that the scriptwriters did incorporate many aspects about the characters into the show but gave them a different spin: pizza, jajangmyung, lost ring, EC's huge appetite,etc... although we have not seen any friction between Han Gyul and Han Sung (yet).

Twenty chapters, 400 pages novel? Better be lots of character developments and a great ending cause you can't get those hours back. Thanks for allowing us non-Koreans to have a sneak look. Chapter 19: what happened "That Day"? My curiosity is killing me!

Lastly, javabeans... you LIKE Harry Potter? i'll try not to spoil it for you when i get my hands on the last book! (OR maybe you do want to know?).

Deedlith and catinyourfridge, sorry, I meant that I'm a quarter of the way through the novel, having read 100 pages of its 400.

jenny, trust me you're not the only one frustrated with the error messages! i'm working on a fix. the host assures me they're either working on it or have already fixed it. they have told me this four times separately so i'm not convinced they're right yet. siiiigh. still, i will remain calm and zen and think of all the lovely little happy things that i can do on my own site that i couldn't on the previous wordpress.com site. (hint hint: i'm working on adding a few more goodies. ;) when i have more time that is. anyone working on making me more hours in a day?)

Thanks for the info. Only 100 pages for the novel? 'Seems like the show will go 20 EP's since it's getting good ratings. The writers for this show are pretty good. So, I guess I have to trust them. I wonder if Hollywood would pick up the novel and do their own movie version?

Wow, that's all I have to say, WOW.
This was my FIRST Jdrama and I have gotta say.
It was so different from the Korean Dramas !!
Each episode is 45 minutes long, which I thought was impossible, judging from the Korean Dramas, which are pretty long, I think. An hour?! I'm just clicking my thumbs and laying down when watching my korean dramas (;
But HYD&HYD2 totally opened my eyes to all the OTHER Jdramas, Tdramas, to Cdramas.
Anyways, I thought this dramas was brilliant and wonderful for all the colorful characters and the creativity of it. I HAVE FALLEN IN LOVE AND SHOT BY ONE OF CUPID'S ARROW FOR HANAZAWARUI/OGURISHUN. Needless to say, I disliked Domyouji in the beginning for his cold character, but I got used to him, oddly enough. HIM AND HIS CURLY HAIR. X] I have cried and used about 10 tissues for this drama, weirdly enough. o_o;
For now though, I'm watching Hanazakari no Kimitachi e (HanaKimi), both Taiwanese&Japanese. &I'm happy to say that OGURI SHUN IS COMING OUT OF HANA KIMI ; JAPANESE VER. : D KAAAWWAAIII
TOMO, MAKI, SHUUN !

JAVABEANS !;
YOU HAVE PUT ME IN A NEW POV !

(That�s why it pisses me off to no end when I go to sites and see some leechers complaining about the speed � or lag � of fansub releases. What�s up with that, huh? Complaining how the wait is killllling them, how they�re dyyyyying to watch the next episode, when�s the sub coming out already?? I�d like to see them complaining after they�ve spent hours downloading, an hour watching the show, five hours translating, getting back perhaps one thank-you for every fifty people who take it, and THEN reading a bunch of ungrateful people complaining how it wasn�t done faster. Most fans are great, but those few bad ones really sour the experience. To them, I say: Hmph.)
endquote. : D
I never thought of that&acted that way, but I finally realize what trouble translators have gone through(: I'll be SURE to thank them next time ^^

?????,

Oh My!! No Spoiler???
I don't know how you can bear waiting for what happens... I'm the kind who read the ten last pages of a book I've just received and then starts at the beginning. Others may find it spoils the fun, but actually I do think that what happens inside is more interesting than the end, but I still need to know the end to not go too crazy while reading. I tried reading Harry Potter the 6th without beginning at the end and I only managed to bear the first 100pages... My hands were trembling in excitement and my heart was racing ( this is what I feel when I watch a goood drama too^^). Anyway it was real torture.
Since I'm not reading the book and watching the drama it's bearable though.
Interesting review ^^ By curiosity, you didn't told us how many pages there is to the book... I wish you could tell us if it doesn't bother you...
