I've been in a bit of a drama slump recently... or so I thought, before I remembered that I was following two currently airing dramas, which is probably two more dramas than most people watch at a time. lol. Anyway, one of those dramas, Fall in Love with Me, also known as Excuse for Aaron Yan Fanservice, just ended, so here are a bunch of randomly ( Read more... )

...the motorcycle date between Roy Chiu and Megan Lai in Miss Rose just very well might be cuter than the Tamsui date between Roy and Alice Ke in Office Girls.

The Office Girls soundtrack is one of the best twdrama OSTs I've ever heard, which is saying a lot -- no matter how lacking twdramas can be in their pacing, characters, or script, the majority I have watched boast amazing soundtracks. OG's features three songs from mainland singer Yisa Yu (Yu Kewei), who shot to fame in Taiwan after singing the ( Read more... )

Aka the episode that got me sold on Miss Rose. Since it's a Roy Chiu drama, I knew from the start that I was going to stick with it to the end. The first two episodes were enjoyable, but just didn't have that pull that Office Girls had.

Another reason I love Taiwan -- the abundance of good TV shows! Right now they're re-broadcasting Fated to Love You (still in the early episodes, which means it's A+++ drama fare) *and* Office Girls, and I'm also sorta watching the currently airing Gung Hay Fat Choy, as well as anticipating Roy Chiu's new drama Miss RoseTo be honest, I haven't been ( Read more... )

The last episode was cute, but could have been cuter if they hadn't spent so much time on Zheng Kai'er. (Also, NOOOO WHY DID YOU DO THIS TO PAUL. DDDD:) They totally could have wrapped this up in 24 episodes, because about half of ep25 was flashbacks, but hey, they hit a new high going out, so I guess they knew what they were doing.
