Beanie level: Wrongly accused fugitive

Ever since Soyeon’s comeback was announced I was hoping for her to meet 2PM at music shows and she did! She’s always been so vocal on how big of a fan she is. She’s so tiny in comparison lol.

Here’s her showing off her albums and photo cards like the true fangirl she is.

    And then she explained she was so nervous about giving them the presents because she doesn’t like her handwriting that she wrote letter by letter because she wanted them to understand what she was writing. Took her two hours, and I thought it was so, so sweet. And all members posted pictures on their SNS and you could see how proud they were.
    It was all awwwwwwwwwwww.

      Yeah the two hour part was adorable and understandable. She also kind of danced to Heartbeat in another Vlive. She’s adorable. I read Jun.K got teary eyed.

2PM is a distraction from my drama watching schedule (I’ve watched absolutely nothing since last Monday). Junho is a distraction and Woo Young has grown to be a huge distraction. Send help.

This was so funny to me because he’s such a close second to being my favorite after Junho…

    Wooyoung is a treasure and I’ve always felt like the most underrated member, when he’s so talented both as a dancer and as musician. But Wooyoung is also a free spirit that needs to be on his own.
    I just hope we will have lots of him after this comeback and that he doesn’t disappear as he always does.
    I love his sense of humour and how witty he is.
    He can change from cutie baby to sexy man in a minute.
    Khun said once he was the most dangerous member to women because he’s handsome and funny and women love men that make them laugh.

      Really? I feel like he has a special charm that drew me right in. He seems really easy going and effortlessly funny. To be honest I fell in love with his Without You performance..ya’ know the one. ❤ Please don’t tell me he disappears lol I need more WY.

Amidst all this 2PM fun I’ve also been keeping up with Soyeon’s solo comeback. I’m not sure I’ll like the song but her promos have been really innovative and fun. This is my favorite so far, where she plays her songwriting alter egos. I love her noble lady persona and the hanbok is so pretty on her. If anyone is interesting, her album medley was also unique with her personally presenting her songs.

    Agree that the comeback teasers have been very creative! In the short docu she did at the start of the teaser schedule, you can tell she is very involved in the entire creative process behind the comeback. I’m a (G)I-DLE fan so I have a feeling I will like the song, but I’m really excited to listen to the entire album!

      Hey there fellow fan lol. I liked the snippets in the two MV teasers more so maybe this song will warm up to me, kinda of how DumdiDumdi did. Regardless, Soyeon is something else. ❤She’s so talented. A few days left to go!!

Beanies, we are hours away from 2PM\’s comeback. Words cannot describe the excitement. Never has waking up for work on a Monday been so exciting.

I can\’t remember which beanie recommended Special Labor Inspector Jo to me a few weeks ago..but let me tell you, this show is fun in a unique subtle type of way. It\’s your typical good guys vs bad guys plot but its addicting. Also Kim Kyung Nam!

Bossam beanies I\’ve been trying to get into the Part 2 thread for the past two nights to no avail. Apparently my wifi can\’t handle the Bossam fun. 🤣 I\’m enjoying the recaps & fanposts for now though~

        Oh? I must have missed that. There was an interesting discussion about injury authenticity, with @sicarius proposing that the best way to know if the Joseon bulletproof vest works is to test it. I wouldn’t volunteer for that experiment though. 😆

      I can’t afford exceeding my data cap so I don’t even try without wifi! I’m glad Bossam is receiving so much beanie love though. 😭 I’m sure it was unexpected so it wasn’t recapped. If we get a Part 3 I’ll be the first to jump in and comment.

    We are having trouble with the thread already which is why I’m looking forward to moving to @WishfulToki‘s blog.
    We did ask for a weekly thread many times so we did try.

    I am freaking jealous of those shows with hardly any comments on it but still get their weekly thread.

      *pats shoulder*

      I think DB staff are trying their best, too! But a historical drama isn’t easy to recap, so that might be why there aren’t recaps for this one. I actually thought that DB should have asked both you and @wishfultoki to be guest beanies who recap this show for them!

        Thank you @mmmmm <3.

        We didn't ask for a recap, just a space for us to comment and for Toki to post her squeecaps. I'm just her cheerleader 😊.
        I know they are trying new things with this site so I stopped asking.

      I recall threads that had more than 500 comments in the past and they worked fine (Moon Lovers, Healer, etc.). I don’t know why Bossam threads keep crashing. I’m not even posting my squeecaps there anymore. 🙈

      I’m obsessed with it. I’ll randomly start singing it throughout the day and my brother gives me this really? again? look but I don’t care lol

      Glad to see you back btw. I kept looking for your posts amidst so much 2PM news.

        It’s getting harder to keep up with all their news and contents. We’re only a month away from comeback, more or less, and next week it will be Japan debut 10th anniversary.
        Too much information, I keep receiving IG and twitter notifications all the time 🤣🤣🤣

          I’m trying do a crash course on 2PM in preparation for their comeback but there’s SO much content. 😱 I’d be content with being able to recognize all their voices by then at the very least.

          0

I\’m still on my 2PM spree btw and my conclusion of the week is that Junho is always judging the other members. lol

Also, so weird seeing Taec be…well Taecyeon and not evil Babel CEO.

Kwak Dong Yeon is simply magnificent. That is all.

So I\’m slightly confused. That opening scene in episode 18 with tied up Han Seo. Did that happen? In what sequence? Because the flashback made it a bit confusing….also I miss Cha Young. Can we have more of her in the finale? ☹

    It was his script, that was the version he told his brother and lawyers, at the hospital.

      Ohhh so he really made the deal with the Interpol guys and let them off? I’m going to rewatch it. Thanks for clarifying!

Ahaha I just sat here and watched Space Sweepers for two hours and hadn\’t realized Mr. Thornton was the cheesy bad guy LOL

I went in with zero expectations though so I was pleasantly surprised. It\’s pretty good for being a pioneer in the genre. My biggest disappointment was the fact that it was a relatively long movie yet I felt like we needed more time to familiarize ourselves with the characters. I just wish we had better characterization for everyone. 🙁 Show me! Don\’t tell me! Also, the scenes with the Victory crew were by far superior. The paradise and \”bad guy\” scenes were rather jarring and seemed to be part of another story. And the ending was a tad anticlimactic. Like…the end. 🙂

But it was a fun breezy watch! Being the scifi fan I am, I\’d love to see South Korea explore the genre more!

    We love him, and this song… it’s my favorite one of them only after Go Crazy!

    2
    1

      Ooff I love Go Crazy too. But CBWYHTS is my fave, along with Junho’s solos. I’d love to explore some of their b-sides more, any suggestions? I think you’re more familiar with their music as a group.

      1
      2

        If you want to listen to a whole album, my favourite would be Hands Up, it’s fun and I love almost all the tracks…
        As for songs… where do I get started… Hot, Electricity (Hands Up), Hallucination (n. 5), Uneasy, Giv U class (Gentleman’s game), The first date and Zero Point (Grown, these two are soooo light hearted!!!), She’s ma girl (Go Crazy), Only you (still 1:59).
        Just some…
        And then you have the Japanese albums that I like a little less, but just because it feels a bit odd listening to them singing in Japanese, but the vibe is just the same 🥰

        1
        1

          Thanks!! 😍 currently in love with Zero Point & I Can’t (that you posted on your wall) I’m adding them all to my playlist to listen to on my way to work tomorrow

        I can’t hold back when it comes to 2PM, so may I also suggest a few songs? 😉 I actually like the Japanese Albums, so if you don’t mind the different languages, you can find a lot of hidden gems there. My favourites overall are Tired of Waiting, Again and Again (Member’s Selection), Without You (Hands Up), Game Over (Grown), Hallucination (No. 5), I’ll Be Back (Still 02:00 PM – not a B-side but imo criminally underrated), Merry-go-round (Genesis of 2PM), Masquerade, Breakthrough and SOS Man (Legend of 2PM), Higher and The Time We Have Spent Together (Galaxy of 2PM). The last 3 albums are Japanese and the last song I mentioned was like a goodbye song before military. I don’t know, why they didn’t make a Korean version of this song, but I often got the impression that they focused more on the Japanese market.

        2
        2

          Gahhh thank you so much for this!!! I too noticed all the Japanese content. Are they more popular in Japan? I prefer the Korean versions of their songs because they’re the originals. But I also like the standalone Japanese songs that are only in that language, if that makes any sense.

          1
          4

            They were as popular in Japan as in Korea, in fact at some point they were sort of accused of neglecting the Korean Market, and as for solo albums, they all had Japanese albums but Taec and Chansung, for instance, don’t have published in Korea. Also, they have two concerts at the Tokyo Dome which is the biggest place in Japan to hold a concert…

            1

            As far as I remember they paused all their activities in Korea in 2012 after Nichkhun was caught drunk driving. (I read this somewhere, I didn’t even know about K-Pop back then.) They made their first comeback after this in Japan and only a few month later in Korea. It was the same for the next years. In the beginning of the year they made a comeback in Japan (always with a whole album) and later in Korea. And the Japanese songs are mostly original and not translated songs, so I guess that’s why they were (are) pretty big in Japan.

            2
            0

            And I also prefer the Korean version of the songs 😉 But when it comes to B-sides I think the Japanese albums are superior.
            However, most of the time I listen to my 2PM playlist on Spotify which has like all of their group and Junho’s and Jun.K’s solo songs, so I’m not really picky 😊

            @eazal @swunnie
            I watched some of their Tokyo Dome performances and it didn’t hit me until later…ooh they’re Tokyo Dome level popular in Japan. I was in kpop back then and although I didn’t follow 2PM I remember they were part of the popular pack back then. I hope they’re well received with their upcoming comeback & that they stay consistently busy as a group. I’m excited!

            Also…I’m currently obsessed with a lot of their songs but today I’ve endlessly played Game Over. Where has this song been all my life?

          Hallucination is also one of my fave ones!

            It is a great song! I really like your list, but Hallucination is so good I had to include it, too. For good measure 😊
            Speaking of good songs: Have you listened to Shinee’s new repackaged album? I like the songs a lot!

            Yes!!! I love it!!! That one along with IU’s Lilac and KSY’s Page are the ones I’m listening right now (along with my 2PM playlist that just like yours has almost every single of their songs, hehe).

            Yes to KSY’s Page, it’s also in my current playlist. Along with Kim Sung Kyu’s Won’t Forget You, his voice is one of my favourite ones!

@soulsearch12 Ooh we haven\’t talked since January but I\’m sure you\’re pleased with the KSH/SMA casting news? What else did I miss? Other than the random pizza CFs of course.

    Hey there! Thanks for asking btw 🙂 ! Well, it seems KSH is doing/booking a lot of CFs. Seriously, bro must be saving up to buy a house someday haha!? The KSH/SMA news, what as if 😉 Ha, honestly I’m still in disbelief that my chemistry queen is working with KSH. It’s seriously a perfect match up imo. Plus the writer/PD/tvN involved just makes this even better.

    He finished up his play, done CFs, 2d1n per usual, fan meetings, and confirming his drama. I try to not get too knee deep w/ twitter stuff sometimes, some of the new fans of his there are a bit OTT/shrine complex thing with him. Other than that, its been relatively normal!

    1
    1

      Haha yes he’s saving up the money I suppose. The only one I really noted was the one with MGY; that was an unexpected reunion.

      I’m excited for his new drama but I guess this means it’s time to finish Start Up? I am intrigued to watch SMA in action though as I’ve never watched any of her dramas.

      Lol at the shrine complex.

      1
      1

        Yeah, I mean its for the random things too lol. The MGY reunion was cute, hard to believe they’ve a 10 yr gap in rl :O

        Well, if your watching for KSH (Start Up), I would prob. skip to his parts lol. It’s one of those shows that was really made more interesting live-watching. Perhaps watching it now, I wouldn’t feel the same fever (2nd ML?). SMA is great, esp. in rom-coms/romance genre, she brings it! So no worries regarding her chemistry/acting, I think once the show comes out and we get a teaser/pics, it’ll be more clear!

        Sorry, but did I lie lol :D? Some of his new fans on Twitter are misplacing Ji-pyeong as KSH in rl. He’s just an actor lol.

          Have you seen this? It’s cute.
          https://www.instagram.com/p/CNV_R12pU_m/?igshid=f5a14k0ucwg8

          Yeah I think part of the Start Up fun was the fan interaction but then again I think it veered towards slightly heated shipping/character wars towards the end. Lol I need to be in the right mood to pick it back up. I’m more excited for his new drama now.

          Oh no, I love that Shrine Complex term. Matter of fact I’ll definitely use it in the future. XD that sounds kinda of cringy so it’s best I avoid Twitter

          1
          1

            Omg, hey! Sorry for the late reply! I totally forgot to reply to this!

            I was being sarcastic lol, sorry if it came across like that :D. Yeah, its not a fan but Stan territory of viewing everything they view as perfect/flawless. Which imo puts a lot of pressure on the talent to be that image or uphold it.

            Cute interaction w/ MGY! She was sick/took some time off, and I think KSH did a great job lifting her spirits and having fun w/ her! She said he was a great partner to work with! I really hope and think his drama w/ SMA is going to be a surprise hit! The cast/writer/PD are all talented/acclaimed with rom-coms/dramatic fare.

            The Start Up stuff was fun at first, but as time went on, I feel like even I fed into the whole Team Ji Pyeong mentality and found Do-san annoying later on lol. Now, looking back, I think Ji Pyeong was/is the best part still (As I always thought), but him not ending up with Dal-mi worked out for the best.

            Same lol, I think I just picked up that term somewhere, and its stuck on me since. So feel free to use lol :)! Stan twitter can be cute sometimes, but I cringe ngl at the overdose of sugary love sometimes.

      I’ve almost 100% convinced myself it won’t let me down…well at least premiere week. Anything with Nana’s giggles is a plus in my book tbh. I admit, I haven’t seen LMK in a LONG time so it’ll almost be like watching him for the first time.

Came across some Brahms clips yesterday and I can\’t help but smile whenever I watch KMJ and PEB. Brahms had its shortcomings but I just really really enjoyed it. Definitely a highlight of 2020.

So I took a breather from KSH content and ended up watching Fox Bride Star. Binge watched this week, oh but not because I liked it. Oh no, this drama takes the spot for dumbest, most ridiculous drama to cross my path (sorry if anyone really likes it!). It had more plot holes then Swiss cheese. I have never disliked two main leads as much as I disliked these. I absolutely hated them. I could care less if they fell off a cliff in the early episodes. So imagine my lack of sympathy with Mr. Main Lead, who’s name escapes me because I never took it upon myself to remember his name. Ridiculous. Simply ridiculous. Maybe it’s just me but I hate this drama! It almost feels like a waste of budget lol. I’d never thought I’d say this….but man I think it’s worse than Forest..or maybe about even who knows.

So why, you may ask, did I finish this? The security team couple! Absolutely love them!! Who do I have to plead to so these two can have a reunion where they’re the main leads? I wasted 16 hours of my kdrama watching life for these two. I really wish someone would put all their scenes together in one video and then I can just watch it like a mini drama/movie. This is the closest I could find on YT. But if you ever want to watch a cute little OTP then don’t bother watching FBS, just watch this clip. I will definitely keep an eye out for Kim Kyung Nam (which 😍 btw, I need to stop coming across these actors) and Lee Soo Kyung from here on out.

    That was the only reason I finished the drama.
    I almost dropped it on episode 15, but then decided I could just FF the final episode just to see these two cuties together.
