We Got Married

Oct 29, 2008 22:24

I've become completely addicted to this South Korean reality show called 'We Got Married.' The concept is very interesting: the show casts eight Korean celebrities and put them together as 'married' couples so they can experience what it's like to live the life of a married. The directors match up the couples so the celebrities don't have any say ( Read more... )

That show has an interesting premise mostly because it has celebrities! Who else are on there? Maybe I'll just look at DramaWiki...and find a torrent because streaming sites kill me. :D

Oh my heart, Hyunjoong? The guy who will be playing the Korean version of Hanazawa Rui? Now I REALLY must watch! Haha.

Oh, this show is still an ongoing thing? Because I wondered about that and filming for BOF. I think I'd definitely watch the show for him since he is the closest I can relate to (and from the little I've seen? Why can't I find a boy like that?). It is rather difficult though as he looks somewhat similar to this intern at the hospital who I'm crushing on just a wee bit and had inadvertently told him his girlfriend was a slut (it is true, but still). >.>

It would be interesting to see this set-up on Western reality shows, but I think a show with this format would work best here in Asia because there's the culture of trying to stick it out and work it (to their last dying breath? XD). Also, I don't think they'd get high profile celebs to do this, and watching the D-list strut it out in the gossip blogs are already enough for me.

Yup, it's still ongoing THANK GOD YAY!

Tee hee, well, he's got four bandmates who could each use the care and love of a nice girl, take your pick. ;)

Oh, definitely. Even though divorce is becoming more common in Asian countries, it still carries a stigma that it does not here in the U.S.

I just had to comment again -- you advertise very well, my favourite couples are HyunJoong and HwangBo and Crown J and In Young. The other three (especially Alex and Shinae and Solbi and that guy I can't remember the name of) can get especially boring. Sweet, but blehh. I laugh NONSTOP at those two previously mentioned couples because they're just hilarious. XD

Yes, omg, Hyunjoong & Hwangbo and Crown J & In Young crack me up so much that I often have to watch their parts again because I'm in hysterics so badly that I can't focus. I love how Crown J gets so annoyed every time In Young gets all excited about seeing or possibly seeing 'The Fresh Boy' (aka Hyunjoong). Pretty much EVERYTHING Hyunjoong says is fucking hilarious whether he intends to be funny or not -- he's just so casually witty ALL THE DAMN TIME and his mind is so sharp and really does seem to operate on a different level, or '4th Dimension' as the show likes to say, than most people. And I love his wife Hwangbo's reactions to his remarks, especially how she falls down ALL THE DAMN TIME from laughing so hard. I just love love love them together.*sigh ( ... )

I loved that episode on the water theme park, that was oh-so-fucking HILARIOUS. Crown J was all 'WTF' with In Young and her "ooh, fresh boy!!!11" moment, and I'm exactly the same; I have to watch their parts over and over so I could laugh at them again hahahaha

I'm currently on the 19th (I skipped the first ones that didn't have Hyunjoong and Hwangbo haha) episode and I'm amused and marveling at the same time at how Hyunjoong manages to answer 'correctly' even when he's half-asleep, ie. when Hwangbo was all "I'm going back to Korea soon, don't you think it's a waste of time sleeping?" Fresh Boy can still say "Of course it is a waste of time" coz damn, if I was in his position? I'd just go right back to sleep and mumble 'whatever'! XD

The water theme park is CLASSIC -- it has my two favorite couples interacting together and I was LMAO constantly at how the show compared their interactions -- Crown J is all sweet and protective towards In Young holding her in the manmade wave pool and poor Hyunjoong is so sweet in that he tries so hard but is so awkward helping his Hwang-Buin around in the pool like he's scooping up seaweed, hahaha. And when Crown J and In Young get into another tiff over lunch, poor Hyunjoong & Hwangbo just sit there at a loss what to do, almost choking on their food in discomfort. It's the little moments of this show that are so awesome like when Hyunjoong tries to stick the umbrella into the sand and finds to his disappointment that the 'sand' is hard and fake -- it's a little moment, but I was in hysterics ( ... )
