PMR bits-and-bobs (up to episode 8)–mainly focusing on the marvelous Lee Mi-sook below.
However (하지만)! I want to let you know that I have heard you all loud and clear that NO ONE is with me on Team Character Rehabilitation for Punch@ble Face, which is I guess fine (as if I have any real friends here sob-sob I’m looking at you@hopefulromantic@bbstl and @sonai ).
BUT!!! I’ve made it so you can see Punchable Face all sneakily entering our OTP’s sacred love nest…to the score of the Mission Impossible opening theme music, and I must say, it’s pretty freaking hilarious.
Maybe I can convince at least one other person to see that he’s just a sad doofus without a plan in life and that he deserves someone to take him by the hand and lead him to a better way of being…uh-oh…I just heard myself and it sounds like I’ve got a case Seon-ha’s SLS all of a sudden.
Here she is again. I mean, how do you look so elegant and beautiful while putting cold cream on???? Life goals. I got a lot of likes on the comment suggesting I should make this gif, so I know I’m not alone in simply wanting to BE her…or at least watch her do her nighttime beauty routine. 😉
I don’t know that our convenient reporter lady gets enough gif-time, but here she is, being adorbs…alongside our lady of the hour, our most exceptional of all exceptional mother-in-laws. It’s a win-win of a gif.
So, I loved that scene, because in so many skincare PPL scenes, the heroine puts the product in her hands, rubs her hands, and then delicately *tap tap taps* the remaining morsels of the product in a few spots on her face. No!! It may be gentle, but it’s so wasteful – awesome MIL obviously has a hardcore skincare routine and puts on her product like the boss she is!!!
Y’all know the Beastie Boys song, “Boomin’ Granny???” I do, and I sing the WHOLE DAMN THING periodically these days because of this woman.
For your listening pleasure, here it is–with the due warning that there are more appropriate lyrics in this world (although I’ve heard WAY worse), but @elinor don’t just go playing it out loud at work: https://youtu.be/deaVr8ML0BI
I’m not above begging for praise when I worked so hard and it came out so well!!! Truly. I’m STILL laughing, and I not only made it, I’ve now watched it 100 times.
And now that I have your attention again: He’s a dear, darling boy and you all are abandoning him due to your misplaced and woefully preconceived notions of “right and wrong,” which we all know in makjang-land need to be dispensed with anyway.
If anyone’s wondering why there’s an extra ampersand in “Punchable Face” up there in the main post, it’s because I HAVE JUST LEARNED A NEW “INAPPROPRIATE” WORD (***grumble groan 15 minutes of my life WASTED***)
@sicarius, I think this is one to add to the list: “But f1rst!!!”
Ha ha yes. Long time back, People used to put in a comment with ‘first’ and come back later and add their comments as reply under recaps. It was weird but people still did it. So it became a bad word.
You are right, @mayhemf. I’ve done more work. It’s first plus an exclamation point anywhere in the text, beginning, middle or end. @sicarius this may be in your list, but I just double-checked and I can’t see it.
I also can’t believe you haven’t been linking me on this Punchable Face drama what.
But is it actually truly a Punchable Face or is it just the character.
Is it the actress’ physiognomy or is the character just insufferable lmao. Cos it sounds like the latter. 🤣🤣🤣🤣
PMR is the best drama in Q4, at very least…maybe of the year. Punchable Face is a male character. Here he is “sneaking” into a house in South Korea thinking there’s no CCTV catching him (SPOILER: There is.): https://i.imgur.com/S6PjLQR.mp4
So which is it. Is it actually his face, his physiognomy, etc, or is it his character… or is it tragicomically, both. Lmao.
(No sorry I’m not going to watch it no matter how hard you try to sell it)
It’s both!!!! He’s slaptastic in the most fun way as a character and a an actor embodying the character 😂 This show is a RIDE and it’s worth checking out if your curiosity gets the better of you!
Oh, it’s both. @attiton’s video just makes him look better than he does. This is the best he has looks-wise and character-wise he’s breaking the law, is too dumb to know he’ll be recorded AND is doing it for someone who doesn’t love him back. At all.
Noooo 친구!! I don’t think weaselly ex-fiancee is truly evil, and I bet he’ll get at least partially rehabilitated, but he shall always remain in need of having some sense slapped into him! I mean, I don’t think I’ve ever wanted to see this happen to any character so much. Not sure why. He’s just so weak and cowardly and entitled and doofy? And with that being said, he’s a well-acted character to make me feel this way 😂
@sonai and @hopefulromantic (and maybe even @hacja now!!) will surely support YOU, @bbstl, but I HAVE EYES TOO YOU KNOW. I can recognize…sob…colors…on my boy…sob.
He even…wail…has the capacity **blows nose** to recognize when–AAAAAH–he’s doing wrong but hecan’thelphimselfffff.
🔍👀 I say it’s aubergine, plum, so *purple* with reddish tendencies. And surprisingly dandy-esque! 🕺🏻 (Won’t say what song started playing in my head to support this.)
Leafing through her drawings though? Still punchable. 🤷♀️
Thank you for the closeup. I’ll say we’re BOTH right, brown + mauve. Yikes. The kind of shoes that make you say, “who designed this? Who approved it for production? Who actually wrote an order and put it in their store thinking someone would purchase it?”
@attiton While I think you are on the right track with the theme of salvation and forgiveness, I believe that redeeming this loser replete with action music is a mission impossible. Let me suggest an alternative: Mr. Walks With An Elegant Cane, Jung Wook. I can hear you saying..”But, but, he uses bad cement! And he limps! and it is true, when I limp around after stiffing up because I’m on my knees trying to caulk the bathtub with a cheap sealant, I can sometimes feel a sinister smirk begin to creep onto my face.
However, Boomin’ Granny has refused to condemn Jang wook, is hopeful the brothers will get together, and I’m thinking that, in a surprising twist, married life with Yoo-ra will turn out to be a classic married for evil-to-lovers story line
Mark my words, don’t be surprised at the end if at the end, you see him toss away his cane and embrace his half-brother, as BB’s “I Don’t Know” plays on the sound track.
You have one thing absolutely right here. That he is willing to compromise on the quality of his cement is the central issue that holds me back from my ardent admiration of Evil Step Bro’s, um, qualifications. He really needs to get his priorities in order if he wants to earn my affection.
Huh, what a cheaty-McCheater you are being, making him look all dynamic with his slick moves and flipping bangs and a soundtrack! Seriously, this is the best he’s got 🤨
Also unfair to show him contrasted with Mr Bumbling BIL Not-Sexretary Secretary! (I had completely forgotten that he came spilling out of the door, now he’s a loveable doofus).
An outstanding attempt but I still say he’s a lost cause 😝
He is definitely not as bad a person as his great love, he is more like just an ultra-flawed embarrassing person. And also, it is *really* not okay to marry a girl so you can be with her sister. Then again, she might have appeared so desperate that at the time he felt he was kinda throwing her a bone, who knows?
At least he looks shaken at times when he is confronted with the sheer ruthlessness of mean sister. When plans of murder or when ice cold emotionless sex happens, he is clearly not ready for it.
Well, i join you on this thought. He is indeed just a sad doofus, not a villain, and he certainly is not someone who deserves the hatred he gets. He is perhaps the purest of them all, and the only one who doesn’t run a hidden agenda (because too dumb for it, but this is besides the point)
