There's nothing quite like a kdrama to put your troubles in perspective. Failed a test? Lost your job? Crashed on a mysterious island with a giant statue of a foot? You still have it easier than Dong Yi.

Note to self: don't read Wolf's posts while you're sick. You're gonna laugh so much you'll end up coughing your lungs out.

And also, don't tempt me with such a huge kdrama. But damn, this is so pretty and the story looks so awesome and and and PERIOD DRAMA. No really, don't tempt me. ._________.

Oooh, I just noticed this is still on-going. Only 4 episodes available, t-that's not a lot, right? I mean, it's just one episode per week, and... mumbles mumbles mumbles

Damn you, Wolfie. *goes off to download it*

And I'm watching two kdramas atm (Pasta and BOF), trying to finish them before the jdrama season kicks in. .____.

Aw, thank you! It's just a cold, nothing worrisome. (:

Yes! That's what I plan on doing, watching it as it gets subs. 50 eps are a lot less intimidating when you take them week by week.

I... never finished Pasta. XD Sorry, Alex.

Jdrama season is gonna be so good!

I LIKED IT AND STUFF HAPPENED AND 11 IS TOTALLY GROWING ON ME.

Also, WHY ARE THERE NO SUBS FOR THE KDRAMAS I'VE DOWNLOADED?! ¬_____¬ At this rate, i'm going to not bother.

I LOVE ELEVEN HE IS MY DARLING AND THIS COMMENT MAKES ME HAPPY.

What kdramas did you pick again? Personal Taste and what else? Because viikii is on the ball with everything but Dong Yi (and WITHS2 is actually being awesome on that front, which is exciting).

Little Dong Yi is so fierce. No joke. I only hope that her awesomeness is carried over into adulthood.

I love that Chun-soo is so badass that falling off cliffs won't keep him down.

Me too! I have hope, because Han Hyo Joo was awesome in Iljimae as the beautiful graceful noblewoman who nonetheless had a spine of fucking steel. Even if Dong Yi's a pretty little watermaid now, I'm sure she'll be strong.

I CAN'T WAIT TO SEE TIMESKIP CHUN SOO.

(ICON!)

I can't wait either! But I can't wait for his looks of angsty longing for Dong Yi. I'm such a masochist and a horrible person but...but...he's so damn pretty when he's sad.

(EEEEEEEE! I need more CU icons. I want one of Ki Hoon beaming at her and her face like :|)

I read somewhere that he'll "never be able to forget she promised to marry him." Yum yum yum.

Wait until you get to episode 5 where you gradually realize that without Dong-yi, small but significant sections of the palace cannot function, she is that awesome. (And she [do you want spoilers] the king!) :D

But history says the OTP won't happen. *sadface* It's the second time Bae Soo-bin's not gotten Han Hyo-joo in a drama.

darkeyedwolf April 10 2010, 21:08:08 UTC
She can't be sleeping with him this early, right? Wait, don't tell me. I'll have a surprise to look forward to!

Is Chun Soo an actual historical figure? Because otherwise I'm thinking (*adjusts tinhat*) there's no reason why they couldn't be OTP. History says Dong Yi bears the king's child, it doesn't say she was in love with him. CHUN SOO HAS A CHANCE.

YOU ARE RIGHT. WE DO HAVE HOPE!!

(The only people from in Dong-yi's family - aside from Royal-Embryo-in-waiting - to be documented by history is actually her dad. Who was apparently noble a few generations back but lost it due to more Evil Robes Doing the Walk of Evil.)

(Records actually indicate she had 3 sons by Sukjong, but lost two of them early on. Wonder if that's going to show up in the show at all.)

Okay, be surprised. :DD This king is totally the pop idol of his court.

Even if they do intend to make her and the king endgame, there's always hope they'll pull an EoE and switch the OTP halfway through. If it were a shorter drama I wouldn't even consider it, but with 50 eps? Yeah, there's enough time.

Did she miscarry or lose them when they were little? Just curious, because the character profile says they'll take her character to her 40s, right?

This king is totally the pop idol of his court.

WELL NOW IF HE DOESN'T FLASH HIS ABS I'LL BE DISAPPOINTED.
