Howdy :)

I'm watching Level 7 Civil Servant right now. It's good, but I just don't feel a sense of urgency with it, like I do most dramas. It's taking me so long to finish! Though working at an accounting office in the last weeks of tax season can also be to blame for that. I'm too tired to read subtitles by the time I finally make it home :p how about you, anything good you've watched lately?

Bahahaha, the scene where Sun Mi accidentally fires her gun at the hideout and the lady trainer tells at her is hilarious :p I love how he held up his hand, I just love this team together! I don't like Do Ha's attitude though. Just cause he likes her doesn't mean he owns her, and he is irritating me. He is still ridiculously attractive, but I no longer feel bad for him. I am hoping that Sun Mi and him get together! But my god, the revenge stuff is getting so repetitive! I'm ready for them to kill those two and move on. This would have been a funner show if it were more like Chuck or bones with different baddies every episode or so!

I totally agree with MiniSushi! If I had known about his death before starting the drama or halfway through, I might have dropped it and that would have been a big mistake. It's a heartbreaking scene, but it's such a good drama that deserves to be finished to see how the characters make sense of the tragedy.

I couldn't even read the Si Kyung quote without tearing up! Definitely one of the most heartbreaking confessions I've ever seen.

We have seen a lot of the same dramas :) have you tried Faith or Sungkyunkwan Scandal? Usually I don't recommend sageuks, but I see you liked Arang. Faith is more like Arang, with the fusion aspect, but Sungkyunkwan Scandal is really good too, it has a great bromance in it! The Greatest Love is really good too! It has the arrogant guy/nice girl storyline, and it's really great!

I don't feel any sympathy for them either! Though I have a feeling the girl is probably going to switch sides or something, with as much as she is against the guy's plans all of the time. And he is so weird. He made a complete 180 from who he was at the beginning of the show, a cute guy who didn't understand why they had to take revenge and wasn't his hyung excited for Korean food and all that. Its such a sharp contrast to the psycho dude we have now. Poor Do Ha though :( I knew this wasn't going to go well for him :p Sun Mi is so head over heels for him!

Boyfriends can be so irritating sometimes :p hopefully you've patched up the misunderstanding with your roommate though! I've never had a roommate before, I moved out of my parents house into an apt with the boyfriend 5 years ago, but I bet if I had a roommate he would make it his job to irritate her :p

Jae Shin is addicting!!! I swear, the way he is with Yoo Hee, it's just so romantic in a subtle way! It was one of the rare times I wished the second lead would win the girl in the end! I love me some Yoochun, he just can't compete with Jae Shin!

Haha, yes addict is a good word for my love of kdramas :) my favorite drama is either Queen In Hyun's Man or Missing You. It usually depends on what kind of mood I am in for which one I claim. A really close third would be King2Hearts. What about you, which one is your favorite? :)

I would just fast forward through any scenes with Se Na and Tae Kyung's dad in them! Those are the worst, they are just such jerks, I hated them! And it didn't make sense for Se Na to start acting that way, she had been the picture of warmth and kindness before. It was so unlike her how far she took it.

Hahahahaha, I'm in a Cold War with my boyfriend too! The jerk told me he would take my car for an hour and didn't come back for 7 hours! I wouldn't have been mad but he didn't take his wallet or phone, so I had no way of knowing he wasn't dead on the side of the road somewhere :p dramas make me paranoid! Your childhood sounds a lot like mine, except my jerk brothers right after we moved into a new house hid in the attic in my room and made the noises from The Grudge!! I was fairly old by then and still too scared to go in my room!! I don't mind long stories at all :)

I am almost finished with episode 7 now. I agree though, i dont like the revenge storyline. everytime they are on screen i just want to tell them to stop being such crybabies! im mean :p they are also showing a little too much of the parents! it hasnt been so bad this episode, but im tired of scenes with just the mom and dad.

I'm so stoked you are starting SS!!! It really is fantastic, just wait til Jae Shin and Yong Ah start their bromance! It's more epic than the actual romance :p that's so funny how MDL is stalking you :p they did it twice already with conversations you and I were having!

OK! And I will definitely let you know when I get to the last episode and we can get on yahoo and watch it :) Keep me updated on your HL progress :) I hope you love the ending as much as I did :)

Yay for going back to Korea! That will be more exciting since you are sort of familiar with it, so you won't be so nervous! It doesn't get too dark, but it does get frustrating, Se Na and Tae Kyung's dad become huge jerks! But I swear, it has the most perfect ending for them, a very real ending!! I am watching Level 7 with my friend Akumi, I am trying to be fast about it cause she is a speedy watcher. The goal is to finish L7 tomorrow or Wednesday, so you guys go ahead and start and I will catch up on Prosecutor Princess :)

It sounds like you had a ton of fun, chingoo!! I loved looking at all of the pictures, it made me soooo jealous :) But I am glad that you had such a good time! Hopefully you get to go again soon!

I am glad you are loving Haeundae Lovers! I am always worried about recommending it because it is so fluffy and doesn't have a ton of substance. But I absolutely adore So Ra and Nam Hae :)

I think if you are ever in the mood, Game of Thrones might surprise you! I have always been HUGE into fantasy, Tolkien, Robert Jordan, Anne McCaffrey, the list goes on and on :p So GoT was a no brainer for me. But I have been surprised at how many anti-fantasy friends I have that love it! It's cause the characters are so gripping, and everything isn't black and white, it's hard to tell where the line is, and whether a character has crossed it or not! But I get the negative connotation the show has for you, so I definitely won't pressure you!

My fear of dinosaurs comes from Jurassic Park, too!! The scene where they are running from the stampede, or when the dinosaur that shot the purple stuff at the fat guy, or the part where they are hiding in the kitchen and the damn dinosaurs know how to open doors!?!?!?! Just thinking about it makes me break out into a cold sweat! It was my brothers favorite movie growing up, and I still have nightmares about it from time to time :p

What episode are you on now? I am going to finish episode 6 tonight, and probably try to get to and finish up 8 tonight, or if you are further than that, I will try and catch up!

I was really confused when the main baddie from the beginning died in 4! I was not anticipating that at all. I think the dad does know it is illegal, but not the extent yet. I've stopped at 6 for now! Walking Dead finale and Game of Thrones premiere tonight :) I'm the same as you, I haven't stayed up with American TV in a year now! I haven't had cable in 5 years though, so we always have to wait to download or watch it online the next day. Walking Dead and Game of Thrones are the only two shows I keep up with. Walking Dead is epic! It is so character driven and incredible. And heartbreaking! I loathe zombies, they are literally my worst fear (next to dinosaurs!) so I am shocked how much I love it!! Game of Thrones is brilliant too, but very violent and dirty! I have only read up to half of book 3, the show is just starting season 3/book 3 and it's going to be an amazing season!

Hey, what American shows do you watch? Do you keep up with Game of Thrones or The Walking Dead?

I thought the same thing about the secret agent stuff! And the guy tailing Gil Ro's dad is supposed to be a senior agent, and he is that amateur!!?!? There is also a scene where Do Ha has to do some breaking and entering and they park the car right in front of the house they are burglarizing! I wonder if the actual Korean intelligence agency was pissed with how dumb they make agents look sometimes! Maybe you can help me answer a question. Does the dad realize he is doing illegal stuff? Or how illegal it is? I can't tell of he knows what kind of people the trip of baddies are. If he doesn't know I feel bad for him :(

Hahaha, the scene where he got kicked in the balls made me laugh SOOOOO hard, too! I wasn't expecting it at all :p I don't really find Joo Won very attractive either! His cheeks remind me of apple dolls, they are so prominent! I just started episode 6, and I am still loving it! Seo Won's hair has gotten a little better finally! It's a different color, and it has a little more texture so it doesn't look so boyish. I love the two trainers, the woman really does get funny. There are so many recognizable faces in this drama! You have the cleaning lady from Missing You, Jan Di's mom, the dad from Secret Garden, the main teacher from Sungkyunkwan Scandal. A lot of well-seasoned older actors!

I do love finding fellow members who only like Kdramas! I always feel like such a bad drama addict whenever someone tries to get me to watch a jdrama or a kdrama :p
