Otomen is DELIGHTFUL. I usually don't like shoujo manga live action adaptations (even when I like the original manga!) but this one is just so cute and funny and sweet.

OKAY, SO.

1. Otomen: it was so adorable. I mean, the transgender father was stereotypically portrayed, but it's Japanese television. But the ending was super cute, and I liked how the two main leads interacted. :D

2. I was watching that trailer a while back, and I was like, everyone gets shot at least once in this show, don't they?? And they don't even have guns. :P

3. As far as I know, there's a book out there with the time-travel-back-to-4th+8th's-time thing, so the two adaptations don't exactly surprise me. LSS's version looks more artsy and hence, is probably more angsty. (Surprisingly, in cdramas, that seems to be an indicator of tears, death and doom.)

I really am surprised that no one's making a drama about #14, who was, well, screwed over, to put it lightly.

4. AAAAAAAHHH GISAENG'S PLOT IS SO SLOW. (It's more obvious, too, with JPLH running sidelong.)

1. It's as cute as the manga!

2. If this was RL, both the leads would be dead long before last ep - I mean, back then to survive the kind of wounds they got (her protecting 4 and with 8's self-inflicted fun) would be pretty darn unlikely. It would take a LOT of work to save them even now and be touch and go. It's not even a knife stab - it's a sword wound - that makes a big hole!

3. Yes - also lots of snow, just in time to artistically perish :P

I read about 14 on wikipedia. I wonder if he really was the heir :)

4. It's not slow when you skip everything but one plotline :)

Oh my *___* *saves the last picture* Such a shame that the guys had to have that kind of hair, though... he looks so much better with normal hair. :/

Yes, that period hairstyle does him no favors whatsoever. He's quite hot in modern look but in period one - eeeek.

talking about dream high, someone on baidu posted 'evidences' that in fact k is a girl, and not a guy like people seem to think and gave these pictures as proof:

in the post the person mentioned that people thought that this person was k:

OMG, that would be so nifty! It could be Hyemi. And guy with highlights could be JG? SD? Someone else performing with her?

those were my thoughts! even if sadly for some reason i think they may end up making baekhee k just so she ends up with something, but it would be awesome to have hyemi as k, samdong as her songwriter, jingook as her stage buddy and both as her lovers. ot3 lives.

btw have you seen the new bts and samdong pictures?
