Capital Scandal

[_jems_]

Okay, so you guys who recced Capital Scandal? SO RIGHT. Amazing Kdrama! I was in love after just the first episode, and after a few more, I started capping, because not only was it good, it was pretty! And now, naturally, I have to picspam!

Yay, i'm so glad you like this! And yes, Cha Song Joo is my favourite kdrama female but then i've only really seen 5 kdramas so i should maybe rectify that.

Man, your picspam has made me want to rewatch it all over again but i don't know if i could take all the highs and lows again.

I've just realised i don't have a CS icon. How terrible is that?

I'm so glad I saved this for after Boys Over Flowers. Palate cleanser indeed!

Immediately after finishing the last episode I wanted to start all over. Admittedly, it was because I missed the tone of the show early on. Frolicking good times, who doesn't need that after that ending?!

That is a pretty grievous error on your part. ;-) Me, I've been trying to make Song Joo icons for the past two days and they all come out looking like crap. HOW IS THAT EVEN POSSIBLE WHEN SHE'S SO PRETTY?

I think i watched this after BOF too and i remember staying up very late at night because i couldn't stop watching the episodes. It was, 'Oh i'll just watch 5 minutes...' and then 45 minutes later i'd be thinking, 'Another 5 minutes...'

To me, CS had such a great mixture of happy, silly moments and sheer gut-wrenching moments which is why i love it so much. I'm kind of glad it was one of my first few kdramas because i've heard (and seen) others which are terrible.

If you have CS caps then i'd be willing to try to make some icons? I deleted the episodes after i'd watched them which i regret now and i haven't been able to make icons. But i will echo your comment about Song Joo - that woman was gorgeous even in her sort of bad man's costume.

Yeah, I've been staying up later than I should and being late for work because I just have to watch a few minutes more.

I think that the tonal shift of the show was a bit too abrupt and a bit too severe. But I guess that's the Drama way.

I'm heading off to bed, but I'll see if I can remember to upload the caps tomorrow.

Damn, these are SO INCREDIBLY PRETTY!

Honestly, most dramas don't look so hot (TWdramas are the worst in that they have terrible sound, too. And I never thought that bad sound would be worse than bad picture, BUT IT IS).

However, Capital Scandal was INSANELY GORGEOUS.

Glad you liked the picspam.

So lovely. I'm on a KDrama kick as well (for about a year now). Where did you find a HD version of this? I'm having no luck.

My Kdrama kick has only lasted the summer (almost exactly from June 1, actually), but I am deep in the throes of obsession.
