Beanie level: Eunuch in drag

Am I the only one who didn’t recognize that the actor playing Deok-hee in BYT is the same actor who played Yeom Chang-hee’s (Lee Min-ki in MLN) friend? 😳 I would still be clueless had I not read about it.

Can these two get any cuter?

PS: Elle Korea could have instead asked which Lee Min-ki kiss video has more than 100M views. 🤭

    Their chemistry is so lovely??? I need to see them work together again, seriously. I said melo last time but honestly their comedic chemistry shouldn’t be wasted.

      A good romcom would be perfect. Their chemistry is off the charts, even in a questionable drama which is BYT.

        A romcom would be great! Maybe a movie?

        I watched all 6 episodes today and going in knowing not to take anything in it seriously, I actually had a lot of fun??? I hope the serious crime stuff doesn’t completely overtake the drama, and the humor is definitely not to everyone’s taste, but I laughed so much today my dad told me to stop because it was annoying him cjsjsjdjdk. Han Ji-min is SO cute and funny!

          Wow! I know you said you’d watch the drama eventually, but didn’t quite expect it to be immediately. It’s a pleasant surprise! I’m glad you are enjoying it. I guess going in not taking it seriously is really the key.

            I opened Netflix fully intending to watch my silly Spanish period drama as I do every day but Behind Your Touch was RIGHT THERE so I said “what the hell” and clicked it 😭

            The opinions here seem quite divided but if you haven’t yet I highly recommend checking out the convos on Reddit. Everyone over there is having so much fun with the drama: https://www.reddit.com/r/KDRAMA/comments/161l3qv/behind_your_touch_episodes_5_6/

            @mindy funny, I actually just finished reading Reddit KDRAMA’s BYT eps 1-2 recap. 😆 I saw you mention this community in one of your posts, and since I have a lot of time today, I checked it out. You’re right, everyone there is loving the show. It’s fun, will read more. ☺️

    Have you watched BYT cast’s Netflix Korea and MMTG videos? You can find them in youtube with eng subs. They are a blast😂😂

      I have! Glad most of their videos were English subbed. They are super fun!

      I finally watched MMTG last night (sorry Minka, I know you posted it the other day and I didn’t watch it!!) and oh my god it was so funny. Suho just absolutely going mad with laughter at Lee Min-ki’s X-Man trauma took me me out 💀

      Gonna have to watch the Netflix videos today

This Behind Your Touch main cast show guesting was super fun! Glad they have this English subbed.

Lee Min-ki on his X-Man era. 🙈 Poor baby Min-ki (I mean, baby as in green 20 year old Min-ki, but the other meaning will also do haha…), all awkward and confused with variety show guestings.

Suho having a blast all throughout the interview is life. His laughs are contagious.

And Han Ji-min so cute.

It’s so nice to see the three of them to be really close and comfortable with each other.

    I feel like you can see Lee Min-ki’s soul leave his body whenever he has to do anything variety-ish

Our dear EONNI (Da-eun’s brother) is 1/2 of the highlights (the other half being Han Ji-min) of episode 4’s BTS/The Making. Well done, JTBC!

Me (instantly after seeing this photo): Ohhh… that was hot, Min-ki.

Here’s Behind Your Touch’s Script Reading BTS video (English sub) to help us kill time before the premiere episode. Less than 2 hours to go. Yey!

    OMG @minkathedreamer WTF was that show! I’m going to need to process the whiplash. There’s no pattern to what’s going to happen next: hilarity, sadness or violence.

    I think…I…am…obsessed…tho???

    The acting, especially the comedic timing! The OST! Lee Min-ki’s butt in those pants he was wearing during his character’s introduction!!

    Oh, show, can you keep this up at all? I’m worried.

    1

      Of course I’m reading “Lee Min-ki’s butt” in your comment once again. 😆

      Yes on the whiplash. And I loved it! That touching story near the end of the episode, proves that this show is not just all about comedy, it also has the heart. ❤️

      Episode 1 was fine, right?! The acting and directing is pretty solid. Here’s hoping they’ll sustain or get even better.

        It’s not a true “butt drama” post without writing about, or thinking about, Lee Min-ki’s rear end, IMO. That’s even more important than a butt pun.

        I thought about the episode all through lunch. I think there are some very smart people on this show. It’s like got depth??? I’m cautiously optimistic this isn’t going to be a train wreck. I know this might sound like I didn’t like it—the problem is that I was pretty darn gripped, and I am talking myself down from getting my hopes up.

        Min-ki’s so fracking funny as the grumpy cop. I almost don’t want him to fall for her and become even one bit less grumpy. Like meme-worthy grumpy.

        2

          or thinking about, Lee Min-ki’s rear end

          LMAO 😂

          I know how you feel. I also don’t want to get my hopes up too much, but I’m just beyond relieved that episode 1 was pretty decent, or good even.

          I am loving Min-ki’s facial acting so far, and Han Ji-min’s as well. Their banter in the next episode’s preview is cute.

          Seon-haaaa… I LOVED episode 1!! It had everything and the kitchen sink, but somehow it worked?? I was NOT expecting this to be the drama that made me cry this week, but the old man and his dog… and I also laughed a LOT. The SWAT team response? The 25 21 reference? All so good.

          2

            Yeyyy!!! Glad to know another beanie loved ep 1. The 25 21 reference had me in stitches. 🤣 It was pure genius to incorporate this parody.

            @minkathedreamer @minka – I’m hoping it continues to do parodies of other dramas! I didn’t even watch 25 21, but it couldn’t have been any clearer what they were doing, and it made me laugh a LOT 😂 I’m wondering if the romance between the aunt and her love interest will be a bit like the over-the-top dramatic romance of the aunt and director in My Girlfriend is a Gumiho? I’m hoping so!

            @hopefulromantic I haven’t seen MGIAG, but over-the-top dramatic romance of the aunt, it seems like it.

            Yes, another drama parody would be fun.

Surprised to learn that Arthdal Chronicles S1 is now available in Disney+ in my region. Is it the first N-series original to be streamed in another platform?

Okay, so if there’s a 4-episode rule for a show, I realized I have a 3-performance meter for an actor.

Me the 1st time: He/she is good. Very promising.
2nd time: He/she is really good! I like him/her already.
3rd time: Wow, he/she is a brilliant actor. I love him/her! *officially becomes a fan*

Exhibits:
A) Lee Do-hyun – Hotel del Luna > 18 Again > The Glory
B) Yim Si-wan – Strangers From Hell > Unlocked > Misaeng: Incomplete Life
C) Ahn Eun-jin – Strangers From Hell > Hospital Playlist > The Good Bad Mother

I guess third time’s a charm. <3

After finishing a thriller drama, now I wanted to watch something light (or comedy even). Scrolled through Netflix and saw Birthcare Center in the Comedies section. I heard good reviews about this drama but I didn’t know exactly it’s genre (it’s title gave me a heavy drama vibes). So I checked the preview clip, it was so funny I was sold! (It’s also a plus that’s it’s just an 8-episode drama.)

True enough, few minutes into episode 1 and I was already laughing out loud. This drama is so funny and witty I’m loving it sooo much! I am now on to episode 4, and I hope this show will be good til the end.

P.S. It’s just my second time watching Uhm Ji-won (after Little Women) and I am already impressed with her versatility. She is so good!

    Correction: Its title *argh*

    I LOVE BIRTHCARE CENTER!

    It’s truly fantastic from start to finish, enjoy!! I watched it several months ago and couldn’t believe how criminally under appreciated it was when it aired. Maybe my fave drama I’ve watched in the past year?

    Uhm Ji-won is awesome. Spring Turns to Spring is such a silly show but I fell in love with her there. She’s an absolute hoot!!

      Yay! Nice to hear that it’s fantastic from start to finish. I’m all the more excited to continue watching. ☺️

    Wait.

    WAIT.

    This is funny? You mean I’ve been passing on this drama because I assumed it was a melo based on the title? smdh

    I need to do better research. Like maybe watch the trailer.

      Right?! So it’s not only me who thought this show was a melo based on its title. Hee hee…

      Yes, check the trailer out. And if you want to have some laughs, go watch the drama already. 😉

    This show is very good. It is very funny but also makes some interesting observations. I loved how they showed the dad’s.

    I saw the trailer and knew I had to watch it but couldn’t find it without a subscription. So in the end seeing all the clips for What’s wrong with secretary Kim, Mr Queen and Birthcare centre I accepted I had to pay out for Viki and have stayed with it ever since because it continues to have great dramas and subs.

So my boyfriend and I just finished watching Forest of Secrets season 1. (I know, we’re late to the party 😅.)
Towards the end, when Hwang Si-mok smiled upon seeing Lt. Han’s very cute drawing of him smiling, my boyfriend uttered “There… he finally smiled.” Haha… his smile was so rare it’s so precious when you see one.
