1. I have been quietly watching Someday and am through episode 6 - it's such a lovely, understated gem. I don't care for Kim Min Joon's secondary-guy shrink a bit though - he seems very controlling - in a benign enough way but it rubs me the wrong way.

2. Ep 4 of Next Stop Happiness is out subbed. Oh my GUH. It's every teen fantasy I ever had. My ( Read more... )

Hmm, was it Episode 4 of Next Stop, Happiness that you watched? That's the latest one from Sunday night.

Yes, OMG, Vanness..in a black suit, and the white shirt and skinny tie! SIGH! I die!!
I watched it with my best friend, and we were just saying how men should only ever wear white shirts...cos come on, even Jay Chou (whom I adore, but I will admit that he really isn't handsome handsome) looks ridiculously good in a white shirt and suit...In The Name of the Father is the BEST music video EVER.

Okay, back to Vanness...
While his acting was kinda weak this episode (I think it's due to the fact that he had to speak many consecutive lines of Chinese during the trial...haha) his confession more than made up for it...

Oh, and before the trial, when Mu Chen says that no matter what happens at the trial, she's happy that he's there for her, and how for he first time, there is someone to protect and look after her......OMG that expression on Vanness' face...
I DIE!!! hahaha

I kinda wish Mu Chen wasn't so self-sacrificing...and so nice...she needs to be abit more flawed...hahaha (altho my friend says that her flaw, just like all the other female leads in TW dramas, is the fact that she's not the prettiest girl, she's just an average girl next door, and is never as gd looking as the male lead)

The preview for the next episode looks amazing! (not to mention, Vanness shld be shirtless all the time. He looks lean and athletic, not as though he spends his time bodybuilding...LOL)

The pacing of this show is so good, if it keeps up, it will be my favourite romantic drama ever (after Hanadan, cos Hanadan is my exception for everything in life)

Yup, ep 4 - it was sooooooooo good.

Ep 5 looks totally fantastic. Me being me, much as I am excited by the babymaking, I am even more excited by the scene where she has to watch him in excruciating pain and is falling apart because of it.

I think Muchen's flaw is her passivity - I always dig heroines like Shancai more - she really should yell at her awful stepmom etc (btw, stepmom believed her and left but didn't testify or send the pics or anything? FAIL).

He looks lean and athletic, not as though he spends his time bodybuilding.

Yes. This. I find excessive muscles a turn-off.

This is going up there in my fave romances, for sure.
