The sun was in my eyes
The Naked Kitchen has been sitting on my harddrive for quite some time now, and for whatever reason I was on a Joo Ji Hoon kick yesterday. I would have watched some of my favorite scenes from Goong, but that would have taken effort, so I just watched this movie instead. I can't really recommend it, as I found it painfully boring, but JJH was a definite bright spot in the entire dull affair.
The story centers around Mo-rae a young woman just celebrating her one-year anniversary. She loves her husband, whom she had known her entire life, but there is one problem: her husband isn't played by Joo Ji Hoon. The stranger she runs in to when she sneaks into a ceramics exhibit is.
I am not sure what I was expecting with this movie as I had heard that it wasn't that great. I didn't expect it to be so painfully vanilla. When you are dealing with an infidelity plot you expect it to at least have a little drama. Every character seemed like a perfectly nice, but completely irrelevant piece of the scenery. JJH's character was the only one when any minimal spark of life, but even that was hardly allowed by the yawn-inducing script. In a movie that focuses solely on the relationships between three characters you want to actually CARE about those relationships. It was hard to tell if Mo-rae even really liked either of the two men in her life as she just seemed to float through the movie not really interacting with anything.
Exibitions of real emotion or passion were few and far between in this movie, but the initial hook-up between Mo-rae and Du-re in the art gallery was hot and very prettily shot. If only we got kisses like this in our kdramas (I didn't include any NSFW caps. There isn't any nudity in the movie, but there is a bra sighting and some skirt hiking). It's such a rare sight, I thought it was worthy of a picspam for drama_hunt:
Doctor Who: The End of Time Part 1 - What did I just watch? Seriously, does RTD have some kind of magnet poetry set that he used to create this plot? Highlight for not so much spoilers as a list of some of the random ass stuff from the episode: Ood Kumbaya Circles, Emperor Palpatine Master, a father and daughter relationship with a rather creepy vibe, and random cactus people? I don't even know what to think. Though at the end of the episode all I could think of was "That's like dali-lamb's idea of a perfect world"
