OMG.

I have a new drama obsession.

And it's a very unlikely one.

It is the Chinese-Korean collaboration Bichunmu (also known as Bichunmoo and Dance in the Sky). There is a Korean movie of the same name. Both the drama and the movie are based on the same source ( Read more... )

I have briefly posted before about the Korean drama Nine-Tailed Fox, but another post is not amiss, seeing that I finally started watching this properly.

NTF might be the drama for you if you normally have no interest in dramas. Think of it as Korean take on Buffy, complete with supernatural creatures thirsting for human blood, cool fight scenes ( Read more... )

I've been rather neglectful of LJ lately. What with being exhausted, various RL commitments and similar, less lj time for me. Am sorry :)

First off, I finished Nodame Cantabile. It's not the kind of drama I have a lot (or any) meta for, but it was a great deal of fun. Two pet peeves: (1) whoeverplayed Straseman. I want to drown him. There is fun ( Read more... )

Finally bought a flat-screen tw (26") yesterday and you know how I am inaugurating it?

By watching Nodame CantabileBarely first ten minutes into first ep and I think this is going into my Top 10 dramas ever ( Read more... )

So, I know people on my flist were watching Jotei. How did it end? Spoil me! Please tell me the heroine and the hot mob boy hooked up! ( I found out the ending on soompi )

tattarpunk came over last night, and between consuming pastries and fangirl-talking, we managed to watch four episodes of My Name is Kim Sam SoonMNIKSS is a kdrama about a 30 year old, slightly overweight (by Korean standards. She is what, size 4?) pastry chef with the unfashionable name of Sam Soon, who finds out her jerk of a boyfriend is cheating on her, ( Read more... )

Dammit, I misplaced my last Lovers disc and cannot find it. Argh. I only had three eps left. I'll give it a week to surface (I don't want to overturn the house). Meanwhile it means Hello Miss is my next kdrama to watch (QSS is not here yet). If it's like the adorable first ep, I'll love it, and the fluff will balance nicely with Bednaya Nastya ( Read more... )

Just a little heads-up that when I finish my drama backlog, my next kdrama is most likely going to be Que Sera Sera. Not only does fivil loves it, but look at all this glorious dysfunction:

Oh, and here is a DGCH mv, just because my icon is from there and it's still one of my all time favorites:

I am finally watching Yamapi's Proposal Daisakusen. When it first aired, I saw first two eps and loved it, but I find it almost impossible to watch airing dramas. So now I am watching it properly, and it is SO INCREDIBLE. While I often prefer kdramas and twdramas to jdramas for various reasons, there is a certain crispness, a nuance to jdramas, the ( Read more... )

Yes, I know all of three people on my flist are interested in this, but I can't help it. I am obsessed with Bednaya Nastya.

Seven episodes into Bednaya Nastya and I realized that I am fast-forwarding through all Vladimir-less scenes. I like the other stories and characters just fine, but this is a 120 episode series so a girl’s gotta make some ( Read more... )
