[dangermousie]

So, because fivil asked if I was going to do a rec post for Legend. Yes, yes I am going to make one.

Here is entirely unspoilery, very very pusher post.

alexandral keeps pointing me to your LJ for kdrama recs...this looks awesome! Wow, so pretty. So, thanks for that I guess! Off I go to hunt it down.

[dangermousie]

Oooh, do you like Korean dramas?

I made a master list of my 20 favorites some time back (it needs to be updated because since then I discovered my second fave drama, The devil (Mawang)).

Do you need dl links?

Yes! I recently got high-speed and have been ODing on it. It's like CRACK.

I'm bookmarking that post, thank you! I usually stream via crunchyroll so if you have links, I'd take 'em.

[dangermousie]

I'll pm you :)

[mnemo_syne]

Thanks for taking the time!

[dangermousie]

So, what is your fave one so far?

[mnemo_syne]

I don't have one. I've been watching a lot and enjoying it, but nothing has really, really grabbed me yet! I'm currently still watching Que Sera Sera. But Legends is next. :)

[dangermousie]

I really liked QSS...I love my dysfunctional characters who make out in the rain.

[mnemo_syne]

Well nobody's more dysfunctional than Tae Joo...that guy has ISSUES. Lucky for him he's also insanely hot. I'm most sympathetic toward JoonHyuk, who seems like the nicest out of all of them. I hope he doesn't turn out to be nuts or something. (I'm through ep. 8.)

[dangermousie]

I like JH, he is the niecest.

If you like dysfunctional leads btw, check out Something Happened in Bali (Memories of Bali/What happened in Bali). I adore the male lead to bits, but he's got tobe the most dysfunctional lead I've ever seen. QSS is like a more cheerful Bali :)

Is that a Trigun icon?

[mnemo_syne]

QSS is MORE cheerful than that? Yikes!

Yes, it is! Vash is one of my favorite characters, ever.

[dangermousie]

I don't think QSS is that depressing, actually. Emo, yes, but not too depressing. IMO.

Oh, I adore Vash! Trigun is my favorite anime.

[mnemo_syne]

Yeah, you're right. I think I just generally lean toward humor/action as the top layer, with romance/angst underneath.

Trigun was the first anime I ever watched, so it has a special place with me. I was unprepared for the awesomeness of the genre, and Vash just totally stole my heart! Adorably silly badass. (Not to mention Wolfwood.) Did you hear there's supposed to be a Trigun movie coming out? Not for a while, obviously, but I think Nightow said he's done with the script. Yay!

[dangermousie]

Have you seen My Girl? It's one of my fave romcom kdramas.

[mnemo_syne]

I haven't. I'll add it to my list!

[dangermousie]

Yay! It's really awesome.
