All of a sudden I really want to see the Taiwanese drama The Hospital:

Mmmmm. Jerry Yan (Domyouji in Taiwanese Hanadan).

In other news, I am sure all Bolly fanatics on my flist are aware, but SHARUKH KHAN IS GOING TO BE A PRESENTER AT GOLDEN GLOBES tomorrow. OH MY GOD.

Mmm, neck kissing - yummy. People can say what they will about Jerry's acting, but he's always excelled in the kissing scenes :-). (It must have been a relief for him here not to be kissing a woman a foot shorter than himself, take after take!)

ROFL

OMG I KNOW. I'M SO EXCITED FOR SRK. Do you know what award he is presenting?

[dangermousie]

No idea but so hyper!

Holy crap! That much GOOD QUALITY kissing in ONE DRAMA? Please, tell me what you know of this odd phenomenon!

[dangermousie]

LOL. Generally, Taiwanese dramas are your best bet for finding good (and plentiful) kissing. Hmmm, if you are looking for dramas with a lot of decent kissing, here is a mini-list:

TAIWAN
It Started with a Kiss/They Kiss Again (aka ISWAK2)
Mars
Devil Beside You
Why Why Love
Silence

KOREA
All In
Que Sera Sera
La Dolce Vita
Which Star are you From
Goong
Lovers
Coffee Prince
(I am sure there is more but I am blanking)

JAPAN
Kamisama Mou Sukoshi Dake

Hee! no, I meant THAT drama. that one drama. with a LOT of kissing!

I refuse to watch It Started with a Kiss, as I heard the girl is as dumb as a brick, and entirely singleminded about wanting boy. I find that rage inducing and not at all interesting. Ive got Mars on the list, LOVED Devil Beside You, and am currently watching Why Why Love with princess_dexter. Although, Im halfway through ep 14 and about to start throwing things at Mike He's head.

I only know a couple of the Korean ones, and the only one Ive seen is CP. Im sure Ill get around to Goong at some point.

I havent even heard of the Japanese one.

thanks for the recs, though - ill have to look into them!

Yup, the girl in ISWAK comes pretty close to being a single-celled organism, brain-wise. Re: WWL. But he is iiiiiiiill! :)

Oh, and I just edited to add in Lovers, with one of the most spectacular make out scenes in kdramas: he is a mobster she is a plastic surgeon and they meet when she stitches him up :)

The Japanese one is awesome: so OTT melodramatic and delicious. He is an angsty musician with a tragic past, she is a teen dying of AIDS (which she got when she went on a paid date to get money for tickets to his concert). So delish.

Here is the (in)famous kis from Goong which almost broke soompi forums :)

I know. It's awesome.

I think Bolly films have finally crossed over. I don't need to wait to see something on Channel 4 or go to some god-forsaken picture house in the middle of nowhere and guess what's happening. I can get them on DVD or go to my normal cinema and see them there.

[dangermousie]

I know, it's becoming more mainstream in the US too, which is awesome.

I AM ALSO AWARE.

[dangermousie]

Heee.
