this is not a review. it is a gush.

I spent the bulk of yesterday trying to detangle a laceweight skein of yarn while watching Hana Kimi.

laceweight: any yarn obscenely skinny for creating lace-pattern knits. Think .5/.7 size pencil lead thickness.

You're weird.
Heh.

Okay, I'll try and figure something out... ;)

I have nothing to say except...

HANA KIMI!!!!

The Taiwanese version was my gateway drama to the whole world of Asian dramas...because I loved the manga so much. :) My first J-drama was this one. And then I watched Coffee Prince and...heh. :)

If you haven't read the manga, though...YOU SHOULD.

(nvm. I see that you have :) )

(s'okay. I didn't make it that obvious: I think I must have posted about the manga itself long ago or something or I would have recommended it, too...)

[idiosyncreant]

Oh, I have! It's one of the ones I reread, even.

See comment about drama Nakatsu vs. manga Izumi...in the context of the manga, Izumi is king, and Nakatsu is a little more annoying than anything, but I love a good girl-undercover-as-boy story, and that's how I found the dramas...

I'm hoping they haven't given up on doing one in Korea, and I hope they cast it decently, I like this story that much...
