TOLD YOU! Isn't just everything we dreamed about and more? The only complaint I might have is that the editing can be a bit choppy but that's such a minor thing in SEA OF AWESOME THINGS. Daesung! Im Joo-hwan! Oh Man-suk! SO MANY WONDERFUL THINGS. *sigh*

I get SO twitchy when it gets compared to Dream High or Heartstrings. (Nothing against either of those dramas--they both had their good points). I doesn't compute that you really could compare them beyond the fact that they all have music has a main plot point. Just...*shrug*

YES YES YES EVERYTHING IS SO SHINY AND WONDERFUL AND I LOVE IT *__________*

The editing is rather hit and miss for me. When it's good, it's really noticeably good, but otherwise... yeah.

I doesn't compute that you really could compare them beyond the fact that they all have music has a main plot point.

Right? And what really irritates me is that What's Up was filmed before either of them, it just lacked a network to pick it up because......... Korea is full of tasteless morons?? Anyway, when people compare them it reminds me of Twilight fans bitching that The Vampire Diaries "totally ripped it off." FUTURE MENSA MEMBERS RIGHT THERE.

I did lol when OMS' character was like "OKAY, CLASS OF 2011!" Party hard, you guys! The future is coming sooner than you think!

I guess editing is one of the first things to go wonky when you edit an hour show down to 45-ish minutes. I do love the little snippets at the end though. They make me chuckle. =)

It still boggles my mind that it didn't get picked up for so long. Nothing makes sense so maybe the PD pissed off somebody. Who knows?

!!!!! Did they really? I was wondering why the eps were so short. That's just stupid omfg.

I think the reason is that it was mapped as a 20 episode drama and they cut it down to 18 episodes. .....I think. I could be making up stuff. Plus I don't think cable does hour-long shows. I've yet to see one that does.

All this talk reminds me that there's two new episodes to watch on Dramafever. (I've been distracted by the crack that is Ojakgyo Brothers so I need to get back on that, lol.) So if you'll excuse me.....I need my weekly dose of awesome EVERYONE. (Though I have an immense soft spot for Daesung. He makes me heart cry in this...I want to stab his mother.)

Well, I suppose we should be glad we're getting it at all... and at least it was only slightly cut and not totally butchered a la Friend Our Legend with its crazy marshmallow censorship.

Though I have an immense soft spot for Daesung. He makes me heart cry in this...

Oh gosh his unrequited love is PRECIOUS. And the whole Hades thing? I laughed until I cried, then downloaded the rip only half-ironically.
