Monday Miscellania

1. Proving my utter shamelessness, I purchased a Harlequin romance in which a small-town girl purchases a bachelor at a charity auction in order to bring him home for her parents' anniversary as her date. She thought she bid on a paramedic but instead ended up with an Irish gigolo. We all make these small mistakes from time to time. It's

Are high waters seriously in right now? Because they look ridiculous. As does his jacket... and Son Ye Jin's dress isn't anything to write home about. Basically, I think I hate everything they are wearing.

I shouldn't be so negative... I'm excited/anxious about the drama though!

[dangermousie]

Icon!

I kinda like her dress I confess. I didn't notice his jacket but now that I look at it - OMG, why why whyyyyyy? ugh. Korean fashion never makes sense to me.

Yes, high-riding pants are in, in kdrama world (you can also see them on Song Il Gook in A Man Called God - though for your own sake, stay away from that drama for many other reasons). I hate it - looks like they couldn't afford pants of proper size.

I miss VMars :(

Her dress has the potential to be cute (minus the jacket), but the way they've made the seams drop in the front of the dress makes it look sloppy and gives her a belly she doesn't have.

LOL, thanks for the heads up!

[dangermousie]

I miss it too!

That dress makes her look like she has hips and boops though so I think it works there...

[dangermousie]

I hope so too!

you forgot to mention the all-important detail - what is the NAME of this ridiculously entertaining book so I can go read it?

[dangermousie]

Heated Rush by Leslie Kelly.

So cheesy it's a good thing I am not lactose intolerant.

OMPH! This MV is looooooovely. Thank you so much to whoever made it. (Good height difference too - I am not terribly short myself, but I like my men tall).

I remember someone on soompi saying there were not enough OTP-build moments for UN/TH ? Do these people watch the same show as I do???? The moment where TH took the baby off UN to give her some space to talk to DG was sooooooo good too - when he came back she said "don't ever leave me". ** swoons ** Poor DG.

[dangermousie]

It's seeme from soompi. I am going to leave a comment thanking her because it's amazing.

I remember someone on soompi saying there were not enough OTP-build moments for UN/TH

I thought there were so many - I love the gradual build-up of their relationship - with the fact that they save each other, are intellectually and emotionally compatible, and have wicked chemistry thrown into the mix.

when he came back she said "don't ever leave me". ** swoons ** Poor DG.

I feel bad for DG (poor man) but I do love that the drama was willing to show that people do move on - find new loves, grow out of the kind of person they were etc.

I feel bad for DG/UN shippers but I've seen some hate of UN for being 'uncaring' and I don't get that - she still has strong feelings for DG but she loves her husband - who is not only worthy of love but is someone she met after a decade of believing her old lover dead. How could she not move on? Should she NEVER move on? That is unrealistic.

Thanks for posting this mv...Im all smiling watching it:) I mean they are one of my favorite kdrama couples. I mean TH/HW have a lot of moments together. The way they look at each other......attraction, chemistry, love :)
I am thinking Oh Ji Ho and Lee Da Hae spent a lot of times together in Chuno because most of Lee Da Hae's scenes are with him right?

I like Oh ji ho with his beard though cuz he looks in his rugged self..hot!
It will be hard for me to find another drama worthy to watch. I mean after Iris I thought I was going to stop but I could not resist not seeing another Lee Da Hae's drama :)

I love that too.

I certainly prefer OJH all unkempt and rugged. Not that he looks bad clean-cut but all scruffy? Mmmm.

How to train your Dragon is adorable!!! I watched it already twice, once alone, once with friends, and already plan to watch it with my mom again. ^^ It's just so great! Dreamworks gave me a surprising beautiful ending.

OMG, Lee Min Ho looks still as handsome as ever. I can't stop wanting to dream with him again. *grin*

LMH = my hormones workinf.

Dragon - cutest movie I've seen in months.
