Hmm, insightful!.. In short, steer-clear of 'onii-san' and 'senpai', because of their sometimes sexual-connotations! I always felt there was an undercurrent of flirtatiousness when girls said it, but I thought they were just trying to be 'kawai'. But I guess, it runs a tad deeper than that!
Thank you :D
I have now a full belief that all east-asian/ south-east asian countries have somehow a very sexualized usage of the word 'brother' in their own language, much like how 'daddy' has been used in the West!

*___*

I ended up writing an essay, so i think i'll send you that on your DM :)

I have no idea on the dates, sorry, but super excited for the release :3

Little factual correction guys...
LDH's drama (youth of may) is set in 1980 against the backdrop of the Gwangju Uprising. Casualties 2000+ Largely student-influenced movement

JHI's drama (snowdrop) is set in 1987, against the backdrop of the 'June struggle'. Casualties: in single digit? Involved millions of citizens.

I feel like JHI's drama won't be as sad. LDH's will be a tearjerker in the last quarter atleast :/ Be ready for another LDH character to DIE T_T

As somebody familiar with China's politics more than South Korea's, (due to textbook politics in our country).... this sounds quite a LOT like Tiananmen square incident, and has similar potential. If the outcome of that was like what happened in Korea eventually, we'd have movies glorifying the student movement there as well!
Oh, the potential! *_*

Kinda doesn't help I initially found strong JHI-vibes from LDH... ah it'll be a bloodbath for me xD xD LDH is starring with his sweet-home step-sister in this, folks be complaining cuz they are paired as romantic interests in this one!..

Agreed, that DMZ scene was SO beautiful, and all the themes of love, separation and political conflict entwined with it so meaningfully. In a way, I expect the entirety of Snowdrop to be just that!... Looking forward nonetheless. Also, even if Jisoo doesn't work out, hope JHI gives a killer performance, and shines as a leading man, that would cement his status among the A-listers! :D

I think he looks especially adorable in his puppy-look, and maybe he gets more/ less fan-attention/ objectification (depending on which he wants, although I think he wants to consciously be objectified lesser, because he's all about his work, and seems very low-key in other departments, despite being hyper-aware of the effect he has on women around him)

But I agree, he has outgrown his 'puppy-phase' already! Heavens, he is almost 35 already! Please give him 'manlier' looks. I know all the Ahjussi-Oppas have benefited from a more mature-makeover, and they have never looked *better* in their career!!

Just saw SDM photos of his. That undercut looks so sexy on him. Though he has crossed the age to sport a double-side fade, but maybe he can still rock it?! :D
I always thought stuff underneath your shirt is sometimes objectification, but men being protective of their foreheads xD xD

The brilliant part about being a theatre-actor, means you get to brush up your skills, minus the constant spotlight on your dating life. I am sure he has dated plenty before, kinda impossible to resist his charms and good-looks... and I am sad he won't get to publicly date anymore with all this fame.

I have only watched TWO of LYY's projects, and I need to know which ones you are talking about. Watching a few of her clips yesterday, and she has the same pixie-vibes as PMY, and now I *need* to see PMY being his costar. That's it. I think they'll have explosive chemistry and I would need to sit with a hand-fan during their scenes together. *__*

Well, about the 21-yo fan thing, I guess his response to her makes the fact that he claims to be an 'uncle-fan' of some girl-group....a lot less creepier...Heh! xD I still can't get over the fact that some other fan asked HIM on a DM, to leave his *own* fan-chat, because it was already full-house (obviously) and she wanted to get in! :P xD
Ps. I need to know how to watch KSH's theatre-works online? :P

Hmm, I need to know from someone familiar with Japanese-entertainment...
Have they started sexualizing 'onii-san' and 'sempai' the same way? Like 'Oppa' in Korea?
Would, and could a girl trying to hit on a guy, who she is familiar with (like an older colleague, or an upperclassmen)refer to him flirtatiously as 'nii-san' or 'sempaiiiiiii'? Or is that just weird? :O

His hair has recently got SO long, they have to curl his fringes into waves, to style it, so that it wont fall into his eyes and cause him irritation xD xD
I really think the world isn't ready for Asian men with undercuts and fades. And maybe they want to keep their sexiness teen-friendly! ^^ From good-boy straight fringes to cute-sexy, messy bedhead...seems like an acceptable range, comfortable enough for slightly shy men to operate within. But little do they know, good-boys are objectified too! :)
I also think korean-men would rather go shirtless than show their foreheads. Why, oh why? o.O
Restrains....? Excuse me, have you seen that tick in his jaw, when he gets irritated? Please KSH, let us live!! And surely, him biting his inner cheeks to control his rage should be rated-X? :P That shit ain't legal. *__*
Hm, about him dating... I think he'll end up with a girlfriend later in his life. With his current level of fame, maybe someone younger and non-famous. And if he blows up, like we want him to by 2023, then maybe an A-lister of similar age-range, looking to settle down by then! :D

You are absolutely correct on the CLOY-level of acting, since 80's in Korea are an actual fact in history and we know *how* angsty it might get. The political premise of it seems equally serious. On the bright side, JIH is the leading man of this drama, which means more likely he'll be the one carrying it rather than Jisoo. Which also means, her role is more like his 'plus-one', and not really like Seri in CLOY. Secondly, actresses like YIN and KHY in the cast-list could mean it's an ensemble-story. So, screen-time wise, we don't have to see her all the time, incase she fails in the acting dept. Either-way, the story's backdrop required some seriously-seasoned FL. Which is why I am more excited for Lee Do Hyun's drama set in the same era!!! :D :D

Hmm, the prod-team should know we're waiting to pitch-fork them. I guess the way to go about it, is to write a long letter, like in the case of BSR, or even Mr. Queen.... and attach petition-esque signatures to it...?

Just like j-doramas are flooded with 'marriage stories', to boost birth-rates in the country. Might as well romanticize the whole concept, while we're at it! \m/

Yup, he'd show his forehead if required for a role, but his personal style.... less than likely. I have also seen clips where he subconsciously shoves his hair down. It's adorable to watch, but what a shame. Profile wise, he has a straight-forehead with a slightly inward incline (which is what you identified correctly as 'manly') There are actors with far rounder forehead shapes (which aren't considered *that* manly) who flaunt their foreheads nonetheless...so somebody please give KSH the memo, that he has excellent goods, and should flaunt it.
Also, can Asian countries *ban* forehead-covering fringe-cuts after 30? The sexiness-potential is SO high, maybe the world can't handle it...
Also, let's wait for like 5 years and give KSH a solid girlfriend, maybe then like HB, he will opt to sport a brushed back hairstyle flaunting his forehead? :P :P
*fans herself rapidly*

They played us, and we got played.... xD

KSH trying to follow others for dance-steps is a clueless me trying to follow flash-mob moves from the last row, and lagging 2 beats. He is a complete MOOD! xD
KSH dancing to BP is something fans didn't knew they needed, and are glad to receive! His fanservice is <3 <3 <3

Same, my friend.....same! xD

I have a suspicion they did it for Ji-dal fan-edits, and if that's the case, I'm 100 percent sure the writers have a few saved on a secret folder in their phones, and they glance at them wistfully from time to time, for what could have been. :/

The gender-reverse grab parody was cute. They def tried to pull a WFKBJ-moment, but it left me with zero-feels. On the downside, I felt BAD for HJP. The writers be rubbing truckloads of salt on him :/

NOW I NEED KSH and SHS twerking to BP *__*
Man, k-ent be giving us crossovers, we don't deserve as fans! xD
*looks frantically for fan-edit material*
Brb <3
