The loveliest twdrama you've never watched

I am getting a mad craving to rewatch To Get Her, a twdrama starring Jiro Wang and Rainie Yang. I love TGH so and find it so ridiculously underrated it's criminal ( Read more... )

It's one of my sister's favorites. She watched way more TW dramas than I do, and she really liked this one, it was quirky and low key.

Now with your rec, I'm adding it to my to watch list. After I finish my SH recaps, of course.

The MV was awesome, thanks for sharing~

Yay! I hope you like! I found it an unusually tender twdrama, if it makes sense. With blessedly little OTT. Plus, it's fairly short - 12 eps or so.

I read your blog post about Farenheit disbanding and out of all the guys, I most want Jiro to have a successful post-Farenheit career. I can't judge musical ability so I have no idea if he's any good as a singer, but as an actor, he's the only genuinely good one out of the bunch. I'd be happy if he concentrated on acting entirely. (Also, he's my ideal Tamaki from Ouran High School Host Club and if that ever happened, I'd probably die, but that is by-the-by).

ETT: This song was used in my favorite The Outsiders MV so I am extra fond of it. (I have no idea if you've ever watched The Outsiders but I cannot recommend it enough. It's not really like any other twdrama I've ever seen).

I think I may have to watch this due to the sheer awesomeness of the title. C: Not a huge fan of Jiro after watching the first ep of Hana Kimi, but I don't dislike him and he's not cringe-worthy, so yay~

Yay!

Hana Kimi was not an acting showcase for anyone *shudder* I adore Jiro but I do not adore him in HK. At all.

oooo, funny i was also getting an urge to watch this again last week! :)

i remember really really liking this when it came out. i think it was shown the same time as some other idol drama, and i only started to watch this as a way to fill time, but i found myself getting more interested in this than the other one!

It was showing at the same time as My Queen and BOF. Never watched MQ but found myself less and less interested in BOF and more and more drawn to the loveliness of TGH as the weeks wore on.

That means I have over 3000(!!!) drama-tagged entries.

I am way behind on SH as have been binging with the Yangs. But I plan to catch up soon.

Ok that it!! I'm going to have to stop reading your blog Mousie!(just kidding ;-) ) Why because everything you write about you make me want to watch it! Omo omo omo! Between you and ockoala I am now watching Sunny Happiness(loving it!!!!!). You have now gotten me throughly obsessed with wuxia dramas which I had no interest in at all! So Yang Warriors, and Palace Lock Heart are on my to watch list. And now ToGetHer. Woman your killing me!!!!!!Off to watch more Sunny Happiness! Thanks Mousie for being such a wonderful and enjoyable writer. It just keeps me coming back!!!!!
