Various, but largely drama-centric

I overslept Veronica Mars last night! I was so exhausted, I sort of collapsed and that was it. Dammit, it sounds like it was a great episode too. Oh well, will obtain it ASAP.

How pathetic is it that I am excited it's Wednesday as it means only two days until the new Hanadan ep. My life is saaaaad. And speaking of Hanadan. Everyone should head ( Read more... )

I didn't watch the Mars vid - I like to see kisses in dramas, movies, in their original context - but dude, after last night's convo, I totally want to see it. Fucked up people in romance = so my thing. Maybe after I finish My Name is Sam-soon, as I don't really have any dramas lined up after that, and Hana-Kimi isn't fully subbed yet AFAIK soo.. Plus I really need to know why folks are drooling over this Vic Zhou guy. I've seen some random pictures but the hotness didn't seem to translate ( ... )

need to work on being more Asian, hot and male

Well, I am definitely hot, but being Asian and male is something that I am afraid will forever elude me. But that fact makes Mr. Mousie happy so I guess it's OK.

But I suppose those sorts of rumors REALLY help these shows as the fans probably love to think of the actors as a RL couple as well

If the soompi forums are any indication, then definitely yes. I haven't seen this much hopeful rpfing anywhere else in my life. (Considering the fact that Vic Zhou and Barbie Hsu are a RL couple makes me giddy, for some weird reason, I'll cut them some slack :D)

Hmmmm. Not even here?

Trust me, I'm totally trying to wrap my brain around why I can't see it, even in that otherwise visually pleasing photo. I see the handsomeness but not the hot. Does that make any sense? Anyway, it's why I feel I need to see him in some drama. It's like I looked at pictures of the Indian actor Vikram and thought, "Ew, moustached man!" but then saw him in a movie and LOVED him. It's all about the package ( ... )

I don't really have this particular dichotomy as to me, handsome=hot, but whatever works :)

But I got used to it, since the actors are still pretty as hell and had pretty clothes and well, it did look good in the end.

The newer the twdrama, the glossier. Silence was quite quite glossy. Grrr, that drama frustrates me so. It would be a perfect drama to recommend: gorgeous people, good acting, neat production values, Victorian style love story. Scenes in the rain. Except for the fact that this is probably one of the most depressing things I've ever seen in my life so, no go.

ran into some post on d-addicts where some REALLY big Japan fangirl bashed ALL Korean dramas in a really snooty way (and praised jdramas in the same sentence)I think I may have run into the same post and it really annoyed me. Don't even get me started on the whole 'kdramas are drawn out and have cookie cutter stories and jdramas don't always have happy endings and are deeeeep.' Leaving aside ( ... )

handsome=hot
I dunno, to me it's attraction that's not strong enough to become fangirling. Ie "Yes he's good-looking but I wouldn't jump into bed with him."

One Jdrama I will probably check out once fansubs are out is Nodame Cantabile - sounds funny, fluffy and quirky. I'm no fan of classical music but who knows, maybe I'll dig it a lot in context.

I wouldn't jump into bed with him either. Because he'd probably freak and call the cops. Also, Mr. Mousie wouldn't like it :D

Re: NC. I prefer my dramas with an intense dose of angst (Hana Kimi is sort of an abberation) so NC didn't really grab my attention.

Heh. Let's race each other. You finish those Southie movies, and I'll finish Sam Soon & then we can meet up & squee and I can borrow Mars from you. :D

Sounds like a good plan :).

And I have Kurosagi as well, if you are interested in that. No kissing, but massive amounts of UST between the leads. Plus Yamapi is hot!
