I have already listened to the full album twice today. I’d say it’s a good come back album. There is no theme as catchy as Time of our Life, but I’m sure some of the new songs will grow on me. I’m happy because Day 6 keep being true to their own style.
That chicken show. The verdict is out. Watch it. There are so many meta references for people of a certain age—ahem, mine— and if you are a fan of Monty Python at all, although it doesn’t reference it obviously, there is definitely some funny walking and a homicidal chicken (reminding me of some homicidal bunnies). 🐰 Oh, and a Jinyoung cameo!
That’s always sad to hear. They mention a declining number of shows, but there seem to be so many dramas these days. Yes, a number of them are on OTT channels, but they still employ Korean actors. Could ageism also be a factor? Many of them are 40-ish, right? And so many actors say roles start drying up around then. Still, it’s too bad. I hope they get some good roles soon.
That is sad, they need more character based dramas like Miseang, On the verge of Insanity, Dear my friends or Our blues age is less of a factor and experienced actors excel in those roles.
I have no data to back this up but I have a feeling that there are actually more leading and secondary roles for actors in their 40s now than ever before… but many of those roles are going to more established actors, including Chungmuro actors.
I was talking to someone just recently about how Chungmuro had a hard time recovering from pandemic halts in production, much moreso than dramaland, and at the same time many film directors and actors took on dramas as the rise of both streaming and cable meant the possibility of creating longer-form projects with more freedom and less censorship than has been traditionally associated with television.
Personally, I think this is great for diversity of stories and acting quality in the drama industry, and I love seeing Chungmuro vets coming to the drama side (SONG KANG-HO is doing a drama soon, can you believe that?!?!) but it is sad for the actors and other talents it essentially pushes out.
It is indeed a very tough career choice. I once read a quote by a once famous actress that by the time one “learns” to act, the roles dry up. It is always a tough choice when the lead roles dry up and supporting roles are not forthcoming.
Being a friend is hard and although I’ve been aloof here, I’ve been trying to be a good friend in my live life. As such, I brought back freethekimchi, my kdrama group I started in 2017. Watching a movie with my kdrama mamas, as we all needed some Kim Young Kwang therapy this night. And it wouldn’t be a kimchi meeting without food—a charcuterie board with some homemade kimchi, bulgogi air fried wontons and shrimp tempura with cream cheese. And three bottles of wine to wash it and our stresses down!
Relationships—one friend is going through a divorce/separation. We watched the movie Mission Possible, kind of—but it was really just about being there for each other.
🥹 I wish I could have something similar. My friends are being awesome about my current Life Situation, but (a) none of them is into kdramas/movies and (b) none of them has offered a charcuterie board like that one. That looks like it has magical healing powers.
Mission Possible has been on my list for ages. I need to prepare some charcuterie and get down to it. What will you watch together next?
You should invite them anyway! I was on ONLY person into kdramas of my friends in 2016, and after I played some Goblin OST music during one of our dinner parties, and then talked to them about the show, they all wanted to see it! So began a group watch and blog at my house. The rest is history. One of them and her husband took a pilgrimage to Canada with me and husband to see the goblin filming sites and eat great food—again, I blogged about that too! It’s been a long time since we watched something together though. The pandemic and life got in the way. I will need to do this again soon because a couple people couldn’t come! I never know what we’re watching until a day before. I honestly can’t say we actually watched the movie, so I may just play it again!
Any sageuk beanies watching Captivating the King? Fictional king in a real time period. Glad it’s not King Injo, but also not sure how they are going to change history without getting history buffs all in a tizzy.
I want to start it. I don’t know what to expect, I read the plot months ago but now I don’t remember it.
I’ll have a look at it because I like the actors.
I love it so far but the plot feels lile two different shows. One is the serious sageul and one is a romcom. The difference is crazy lol. I just want the romcom one!!
I was planning to start it this week. The mix-n-match history doesn’t bother me but I may not be interested (at least not right now) if this is going to be mostly dark, brooding, and violent. Winter is hard enough!!
Awwwwww. Favourite dancer in kpop, only after my Wooyoung!!
The way he moves is just hypnotic.
I am enjoying every scene with him in Marry my husband!!!
It’s been a while since I did a Highlight post, but today is the day. Gikwang is so fresh-faced and adorable as (I hope) the second male lead that I think I might just have SLS by the 4th episode! And his character is a CHEF. You know me and not cooking! He’s a keeper. And just so you know, he can sing and dance too. 😆 https://youtu.be/rP0rXNMXwI0?si=GBLlDr0hpjtNHHaV #marrymyhusband #allhighlightallthetime
Oh wow, between Gikwang and Dujun, I’m a a true dark grey light all the way! I have not started this K-drama, but I will, Ally, fangirling all the way ❤️❤️
@seeker, as a rebuttal: 😆 oversized sweaters never did anyone any favors. Now, slim-fit sweaters with a jacket, that’s another story. Or a button sweater without a shirt and possibly unbuttoned:
So the outfit gong yoo wore on the pier in Goblin (that last picture) you had to do very little to imagine those abs under that thin sweater, ao it was like he basically had nothing in between that button up and his skin. 😝
I give Lee Dong-wook -1000. That image above kinda creeps me out. I think it’s the two-buttons plus underwear? Ick. Goblin wore it better than Reaper in this case.
Dear Ally, Thank you for the very awesome, perfect, can never-go-wrong with argument of Gong Yoo … I cannot see anybody else. 🙈
I humbly submit that it is Gong Yoo who maketh the sweater awesome. Not vice-versa.
My favored winter wear is of course those long flowy cloak like coats which sway (❤s) and swirl (emotions) in the dramaland wind and are perfect for THAT Golbin + Reaper walk which cannot be replicated despite the 10,001 reiterations and counting. But sweaters thin or layered are a no-no.
So what I wanted to say was that Gong Woo cannot be submitted as evidence of “good” sweaters as it is his golden glow which renders ALL his surroundings glow with that surreal awesomeness.
^^ I’m bedazzled and like @attiton I am willing to fight with anyone who dares to call out that last sweater as anything but swoony and I will not die but live on that hill.
I thought Episode 12 was annoying me (of My Man is Cupid) because they were just replaying all the flashbacks over and being lazy. Then I realized Amazon was replaying me episode 11. LOL. 😂
It’s so annoying. The worst is when I don’t *quite* finish an episode pf a currently airing drama but Amazon Prime acts like I did so it’s out of my “currently watching” queue until a new episode comes out. And if I search for it to try and see what I missed in the meantime, it starts right back at the beginning. AND fast forwarding is a pain. Stupid Amazon Prime.
I interrupt this Beanie fanwall for an appreciation post for this fine boy. I knew he was special when he pinch hit for River Where the Moon Rises and his star keeps rising! I’m so proud of him!
It took me a second, but I found Marry My Husband on Amazon Prime in the US. Just the one episode, but its good already! Park min young is at her best and I have more than a soft spot in my heart for Na In Woo, who has always reminded me of my uncle for some strange reason. He looks Việt to me with height like my own husband. And a singer/danger from my favorite kpop group (highlight) Gikwang is in this too! He’s a good actor (but hasn’t done a lot of it). Circle was the last show I saw him and that came out in 2017! And a time-slip! This show has my name written all over it.
What’s the best show you’re not watching? I think it’s My Man is Cupid. I’m in episode 9 and she female lead looks like this! It’s a true murder mystery rom-com and super fun with great kissing and dogs!!! So yeah, pretty much tics all the boxes for me. On Amazon Prime!
She is! Nana must have a clause in her contract that allows her to dress up like a fierce wild child at least once per drama. The drama itself is pretty wack but I’m enjoying her in it.
I love the “wack” as you put it! It’s hilarious, even though there’s a serial killer on the loose. I like that he gets almost no screen time. Unlike another show…
YES! I completed this show. Love Jang Dong-Yoon and watched this plus Like Flowers in Sand. He was a cutie in this show and Nana surprised me. The second lead story was also cute. I loved the ending, too.
So I read the news about LSK, and like everyone, was SHOCKED. But now reading the circumstances that happened this past Christmas weekend, he was questioned for 19 hours by police! 19 hours! That could break anyone. I knew a medical tech that shot himself after being questioned by police for an alleged sexual assault (which supposedly happened while he was working in a busy clinic). The case was just dismissed a couple months ago for lack of evidence. He did it after the second time they questioned him. The police do their jobs, but he felt cornered without recourse. He didn’t understand that it was part of the process. It was at the beginning and this case has taken 3 years to come to court—and now he would have been exonerated. But he’s no longer here. It happens more than we want to think. LSK was gaining international popularity and we are much more forgiving than his own country. I hope the international community outcries the unfairness and lack of support that these actors have when they obviously need help. https://www.abc.net.au/news/2023-12-27/parasite-actor-lee-sun-kyun-found-dead-amid-drug-allegations/103267408?fbclid=IwAR1Uz8LAS8elOg27Xy2mkjqHZ7k8GzIf5WLo8P2AfOQnsMaQ3PcG7HQVFZI_aem_AWU-PD2pQupnjCfLQg6eLFCg2CPTKcu1ukRboNGON0IVYXAX9NdPTZsBggCpqs0x6R4
This is undoubtedly tragic, not only for him and his family, but for the many other anonymous addicts who suffer at the hands of extreme anti-drug laws and policies. I understand the intention behind them and the desire to avoid the high emotional, psychological, and physical costs of drug use and distribution on individuals, families, and society as a whole, but they simply don’t work. The very last thing that should happen to someone using drugs or falsely accused of doing so is that they lose their reputation, job, or access to the social bonds that can save their lives.
The desperation of knowing even with exoneration, he will never be back in the eyes of the Korean society, and all his hard work and talent would be over. No support from anyone… and even if he used (something he always denied) and was an addict, he would be sick before being a criminal! Addictions are an illness!!!
It’s after midnight so I can FINALLY post the Day 12 Best Suit Wearer challenge. This guy has been doing it longer than all the ones y’all posted. Some were still in diapers. I give you J/Zo In-Sung. https://pin.it/6mdiYB0
Am I the only one watching My Man is Cupid with Jang Dong-yoon and Nana? I think it finally found itself in episodes 3-4! I found myself laughing, but also interested in the murder mystery too.
Same here. I watched episodes 1 and 2 and hope for 3 and 4 to make some sense, because I love Nana so much, but I still don’t see where the story is going…
Just added it to my watchlist and watched the first 5 minutes or so..but I have a lot of other shows I was planning on starting and I’m not sure what I’ll pick first 🤣😭
I’m not watching live atm only because my k-drama plate is overfull. Nana is one of my favorite actresses and I really like Jang Dong-yoon, so I’m definitely checking it out. Glad to hear you’re liking it!

KBS/MBC/SBS don’t produce and don’t air a lot of dramas now. The week is so empty now, everything in on the week-end.
With the film actors getting love call by the big OTT like Netflix or Disney+, less famous actors don’t get a job…
diary
March 9, 2024 at 4:13 AM
I think it’s this exactly.
I have no data to back this up but I have a feeling that there are actually more leading and secondary roles for actors in their 40s now than ever before… but many of those roles are going to more established actors, including Chungmuro actors.
I was talking to someone just recently about how Chungmuro had a hard time recovering from pandemic halts in production, much moreso than dramaland, and at the same time many film directors and actors took on dramas as the rise of both streaming and cable meant the possibility of creating longer-form projects with more freedom and less censorship than has been traditionally associated with television.
Personally, I think this is great for diversity of stories and acting quality in the drama industry, and I love seeing Chungmuro vets coming to the drama side (SONG KANG-HO is doing a drama soon, can you believe that?!?!) but it is sad for the actors and other talents it essentially pushes out.

I thought Episode 12 was annoying me (of My Man is Cupid) because they were just replaying all the flashbacks over and being lazy. Then I realized Amazon was replaying me episode 11. LOL. 😂

I was actually gettin Goblin flashbacks of Kim So Hyun dying a million times! But yes! This show is terrible with the past flashbacks.

Viki is notorious for not remembering where I paused and I end up rewatching scenes quite often. It’s really annoying.
And now Amazon Prime 😭😭

It’s so annoying. The worst is when I don’t *quite* finish an episode pf a currently airing drama but Amazon Prime acts like I did so it’s out of my “currently watching” queue until a new episode comes out. And if I search for it to try and see what I missed in the meantime, it starts right back at the beginning. AND fast forwarding is a pain. Stupid Amazon Prime.

I interrupt this Beanie fanwall for an appreciation post for this fine boy. I knew he was special when he pinch hit for River Where the Moon Rises and his star keeps rising! I’m so proud of him!

He seems like such a nice and genuine person in real life – at least based on his role in 2 Days 1 Night – I’m so happy he’s doing well!!

It took me a second, but I found Marry My Husband on Amazon Prime in the US. Just the one episode, but its good already! Park min young is at her best and I have more than a soft spot in my heart for Na In Woo, who has always reminded me of my uncle for some strange reason. He looks Việt to me with height like my own husband. And a singer/danger from my favorite kpop group (highlight) Gikwang is in this too! He’s a good actor (but hasn’t done a lot of it). Circle was the last show I saw him and that came out in 2017! And a time-slip! This show has my name written all over it.

Freudian slip up there because yes, Gikwang the dancer is dangerous. Am I right @hades? 😂

What’s the best show you’re not watching? I think it’s My Man is Cupid. I’m in episode 9 and she female lead looks like this! It’s a true murder mystery rom-com and super fun with great kissing and dogs!!! So yeah, pretty much tics all the boxes for me. On Amazon Prime!

Partly becuase of NANA which I adored in the roles I’ve seen here in

She’s great here too!

She is! Nana must have a clause in her contract that allows her to dress up like a fierce wild child at least once per drama. The drama itself is pretty wack but I’m enjoying her in it.
Ally
December 31, 2023 at 9:40 PM
I love the “wack” as you put it! It’s hilarious, even though there’s a serial killer on the loose. I like that he gets almost no screen time. Unlike another show…

Ok you convinced me to atleast try it! For Nana <3

Well, these look tempting.. but I dropped it after ep. 2 because I don’t understand the direction or the theme of the drama. Thank you for the pics

YES! I completed this show. Love Jang Dong-Yoon and watched this plus Like Flowers in Sand. He was a cutie in this show and Nana surprised me. The second lead story was also cute. I loved the ending, too.

I loved the ending as well—way better than My Demon.

So I read the news about LSK, and like everyone, was SHOCKED. But now reading the circumstances that happened this past Christmas weekend, he was questioned for 19 hours by police! 19 hours! That could break anyone. I knew a medical tech that shot himself after being questioned by police for an alleged sexual assault (which supposedly happened while he was working in a busy clinic). The case was just dismissed a couple months ago for lack of evidence. He did it after the second time they questioned him. The police do their jobs, but he felt cornered without recourse. He didn’t understand that it was part of the process. It was at the beginning and this case has taken 3 years to come to court—and now he would have been exonerated. But he’s no longer here. It happens more than we want to think. LSK was gaining international popularity and we are much more forgiving than his own country. I hope the international community outcries the unfairness and lack of support that these actors have when they obviously need help. https://www.abc.net.au/news/2023-12-27/parasite-actor-lee-sun-kyun-found-dead-amid-drug-allegations/103267408?fbclid=IwAR1Uz8LAS8elOg27Xy2mkjqHZ7k8GzIf5WLo8P2AfOQnsMaQ3PcG7HQVFZI_aem_AWU-PD2pQupnjCfLQg6eLFCg2CPTKcu1ukRboNGON0IVYXAX9NdPTZsBggCpqs0x6R4

This is undoubtedly tragic, not only for him and his family, but for the many other anonymous addicts who suffer at the hands of extreme anti-drug laws and policies. I understand the intention behind them and the desire to avoid the high emotional, psychological, and physical costs of drug use and distribution on individuals, families, and society as a whole, but they simply don’t work. The very last thing that should happen to someone using drugs or falsely accused of doing so is that they lose their reputation, job, or access to the social bonds that can save their lives.

The desperation of knowing even with exoneration, he will never be back in the eyes of the Korean society, and all his hard work and talent would be over. No support from anyone… and even if he used (something he always denied) and was an addict, he would be sick before being a criminal! Addictions are an illness!!!

Am I the only one watching My Man is Cupid with Jang Dong-yoon and Nana? I think it finally found itself in episodes 3-4! I found myself laughing, but also interested in the murder mystery too.

I’ve only seen 1 and 2 and had trouble making sense of it, but I’m going to try 3 and 4 tonight. Glad to hear you think it gets more interesting.

December 11, 2023 at 10:03 AM
Same here. I watched episodes 1 and 2 and hope for 3 and 4 to make some sense, because I love Nana so much, but I still don’t see where the story is going…

I’m not watching live atm only because my k-drama plate is overfull. Nana is one of my favorite actresses and I really like Jang Dong-yoon, so I’m definitely checking it out. Glad to hear you’re liking it!
