OK, flist, you win!

OK, I give in. I am starting How to Meet a Perfect Neighbor tonight, that drama notorious for the fact that in it Secondary Guy got the Girl which is pretty much unheard of (though see Queen Seon Deok :P).

Plus, secondary guy is icy damaged woobie, my favorite type. And he's played by Park Shi Ho whom I loved in Iljimae - I totally shipped the

Bae Doo Na is absolutely charming in this drama, which is why I'm probably going to watch Someday. . .well, someday soon.

I'll get back to you on the 'mistress' episode. I have to check it out during lunch. I know it's midway, but I'm not sure when.

I'm gonna need to watch Park Shi Hoo in something else after this; I swear my panties melted off every time he came on screen. How the producers even thought to make Kim Seung Woo the main guy, I don't know. I'd really like to know how it changed. I mean, EVERY POSTER I saw has KSW and BDN as the main couple, even the start up shot to every episode. I don't comprehend.

Someday is lovely - it's in my top 10 kdramas :)

Re: mistress ep being 12, thanks!!!

PSH is ridiculously hot, I agree.

[darkeyedwolf]

Aughhhh! Stop it! I've watched three kdramas in a row and I don't know if I can take another... but... but Shi Hoo...

[dangermousie]

LOLOLOL - he is apparently an angsty icy alcoholic with an evil mother???? Resist that! :)

Pssst, where is the rainscene IRIS write-up? I am eagerly anticipating :)

[darkeyedwolf]

Goddamnit!!!

*downloads, resigned to fate*

IRIS writeup coming as soon as I can stand to look at caps without wanting to cry!

Re: Neighbor. Yay! Let's watch together :)

Re: IRIS. Awwww.

Oh, my, such a sweet drama. The second drama I saw (just after Iljimae), guess why... or guess because of which icy-damaged-angsty-hot guy.... LOL!
Hearing the music I feel the need to see it again.
What's funny is that I think the older sister of Bae Doona is Shi Hoo's omoni in Iljimae!

Park Shi Ho needs to be in more stuff.

I can't wait to start!

[ambergold]

The alcoholism actually isn't quite played up enough to my taste - thus far it's been mentioned and that's it - but I do love Park Shi Ho, and it's so ironic because I'd never seen Bae Doona in anything until this drama, and it's only upon starting it and loving her that I realized she's also the lead in the only other drama I saved from my to-watch list when it got deleted - Someday. so funny!

Just a warning however, I'm actually really disliking the middle of How to Meet a Perfect Neighbor(probably gonna skip to the end) - it feels like they dropped the ball on almost everything - but the first 8 eps were completely adorable and I'm definitely signed up to see these actors in something else.

[dangermousie]

I skip around a lot anyway so it won't bug me (also, I don't have an issue with cheating in fiction whatsoever so...)

Someday is really really awesome. Yay!

Hi Dangermousie! I've been a silent lurker for a while, but I adore reading all your comments & summaries on k-dramas!

Did you stop watching Autumn Concerto??? It's getting really good because thank goodness Guang Xi finally remembers Mu Cheng!

But the main point of this post is...if you love PSH, you gotta watch "Family Honor/Glory of the Family"! It's a 54eps drama, but PSH and the leading lady has such an amazing chemistry...and their love story is filled with ANGST. I am sure you would love it! =)

[dangermousie]

Hi!

I sort of stopped once he lost his memory - it just wasn't as shippy, I guess. I planned to go back to it, though. But oooh, he remembers her? I must marathon now. Curses, why are there only 24 hrs in the day?

I am addicted to PSH. And he has an OTP with the leading lady in Family Honor? Sold. SOLD. Even if it is *gasp* 50+ eps long.

[puion]

Re: AC - yes, it was kinda draggy & not to mention frustrating during the whole amnesia arc! But yes! He finally remembers her...and man, he's filled with rage! Very good performance by Vanness...proud to see that transformation from MG to this!

And yes yes, you would NOT get bored, even if it's 50+, because PSH is smokin' hot in this one! What I did was fast forwarding everything that is NOT about PSH & his lead lady. Then the whole thing become much much better! lol

Quite a few mvs are done on this Family Honor couple...so I chose one which is more angsty for you: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=R-S3rywFuys

Hope you will enjoy this drama as much as I did...do, because I keep on re-watching it! lol

[dangermousie]

Vanness enraged - mmm, must watch.

That MV looks AWESOME.
