MARS

[dancerinpink09]

I've just only started watching this series (I know, call me late!) after YEARS of wanting to (sheesh, I know). But after reading some reviews on it, I thought hey, better get down to it man.

And so I did, and even though it's only been the 4th episode for me, I already think its so humanely beautiful, in a deliciously angsty way and its no doubt

Glad you enjoy the series. It gets better and better IMHO. Even with my obsesion with jdramas, Mars is and probably always will be in my number one top spot.

Yes I AM SO ENJOYING EVERY MINUTE OF IT.
It's beautifully angstyyyy, I liiike :)

"Even with my obsesion with jdramas, Mars is and probably always will be in my number one top spot." - I get you.

Mars is my favorite drama ever and the one which started me on the whole obsession. So wonderful.

Oh the one that started me on this whole idol bandwagon is Meteor Garden, in which ZaiZai and Barbie starrs too. That one's a legend, hehh.

But its undeniable they're both at their best yet in MARS. So ironic too that their roles here are so poles apart from the roles of Lei / Shancai.

Vic can act.

I adore MG which I saw shortly after Mars. I was worried I'd end up shipping Lei/SC in it, but they were so different I didn't see it at all. So amazing.

Oh yes, MG was the one that started the whole idol- teen drama trend ;]

But have you watched the Jap version then? Hana Yori Dango starring Matsumoto Jun and Inoue Mao and Oguri Shun. I must say the F4 in that cant match the original F4 but I grew to love them all the same ! Maybe you would too :)

Mars beats out every other drama for me. By far. And yeah, it's only going to get better. Enjoy it! =D

Yes I'm loving every minute of it, thank you! :)

Mmm. I love that song. Never knew Mandarin could fit rock so well. :)

And yeah, Mars was definitely one of the best twdramas out there. I wasn't a huge fan but it definitely was solid, and good, and convinced me of the talent of both leads. Plus the secondary OTP was so realistic and awesome. Definitely an awesome drama.

It's definitely a kick- ass song, that fits the story so well too.

I think MARS is vastly different from the other TW dramas out there. The rest seem to belong in one category (idol-dramas) whereas MARS is in a league of its own- a real drama.

"Definitely an awesome drama."
- Definitely :)
