Bladey

Have a good rest Yeona :)

oh yeah!!! princess tutu! I really want to see it too one of these days but right now it's drama time for Bladye again. I am also celebrating two yearsd on MDL. Thank you for sharing the journey with me Bokami! Now that I think about it...werew you one of the earliest members of the site? You registered in May 2011.

yup :D it;s been such a ride :D with a LOT of wonderful people :D Thanks for sharing the journey so far, Yeona. :) see I think Koreans are tired of saeguks but maybe the producers are counting on international audience because they seem to be icnreasingly aware that it's become a cultural expoert.

Right! XD well, they're playing hard to get XD maybe it has something to do with conceptions of pride and the thrill of the chase. They just love to be wooed, don't they. and then in a swwooosh he sweeps the girl off her feet and she's like melting. This sells, though.

I guess but I just found that Hong sisters are unable to come up with anything really original. It doesn;t mean that I didn't find it watchable, as apparently I spent entire day watching it :D I am watching sword and flower. Anime maybe soon, I want to watch steins gate movie as soon as I find the subs. I want to watch princess tutu. what are you up to?

hmm. What time was it broadcast? maybe people in korea are tired of saeguks.

Just don't get too isolated. I think isolation and drama addiction are a bad combination. :P Ohhh yes White tower was recommended by Lunar to me. Hanzawa is also immensely popular, but I don;t know Bokami, maybe what's popular is actually everyday?

:D Yeona, in how many movies AND dramas a guy falls obsessively in love with the girl :D it;s quite common. Meant to be romantic or something I guess and a show of bad development.

well maybe there are some policies and politics involved that Koreansd find unpopular which causes them to look for stations other than KBS.

do you have a specific example of such a book? A lot of these plots are borrowed from somewhere anyway.

Well, know that you research anime more than you watch it, you said it sometime ago :D And then your priorties are determined by whether you watch alone or not. What I"m asking is what are you up to at the moment in drama. i think I just got my drama watching powers back XD and so am starting kniofe and flower.

of course I will soon. So far I thought the opening scenes were brilliant. She's sitting and in the background the ruins of a kingdom and crows and stuff. Veyr beautiful and evocative. I am sorry to see it had such poor ratings in Korea, even though it;s a prettily packaged drama...oh well, who cares, targeted viewers will like it.

Bwahahaha! :D I think we'll survive :P I am watching knife and flower now. Starts off with this really SAAAAD face of Uhm Tae Wong's,. I have a feeling that THIS is the real deal as far as a RomeXJuliet remake goes. The Priness man will look like poor imitation in contrast.

Yeah, well the actors can be happy that they did a good job and the drama will seel to targeted audience. I'll be sure to watch it very soon and blog about it :)

The wors part about it being an American remake is that american series drag on for like 10 years. It's a terrible idea. Not that it was a good drama to begin with but well at least it was SHORT. lol.

there is going to be American remake of Boys Before Flowers 0.0

Well it may be better off to put master's sun off for a while. The characters are VERy similar to other hong sisters drama, plus the drama itself takes the idea from chilling romance it seems, moreover gong hyo jin almost always acts out the SAME character. but it's still quite watchable. I watched it yesterday and my evening flew away overall without me noticing it much. lol. Hong sisters in partocular rehash too much of things and tropes from other stuff but oh well, nothing wrong there, there is usually something added so it wasn't tragic. And thanks can't believe it's been this long either :D Can't believe how much the site has grown too.

Sleep, I was just reflecting on the two years of my stay on MDL (account created 15 October 2011) and it made me realise that when I first joined (it was actually August, under a different account but I lost access to it afterwards) you were always right there on top of top posters lists :D I think crazy4You was also on the top and Lis and...I don't remeber who else unfortunately, but I just wanted to congratulate you on maintaining the top posting position over the years :D Keep up the good work!

I see. So what are your watching priorities now?

How are you dealing with your drama and anime queues? :)

I did Komikado is being Komikado but especially towards the closure it was turned into a quasi melodrama that doesn;t work for this drama and japanese dramas in general. Ifg this had been a korean drama then okay maybe. I really hope they won't wanter it down.
