Yessss!! His lustrous man mane. Adorkable! So, so true. I love Taku, but that hair makes.... (self edit to keep it PG). I love him curly. I'm surprised you didn't post a pic from Mr. Brain. His hair was a separate character. LOL Thanks for quoting me by the way. I basically looked at the photos and read it from the bottom up. I was surprised.
Great article. I would say the Japanese don't film using digital. Or that the filters make their cinematography look that way. Too me it's like daytime vs. primetime here in the US. I stopped checking out the Hallyluback vlog. That chick irritates the hell out of me. She says some of the most biased idiotic bs I've ever heard as if she's an expert. How is Japan stuck in a time warp when much of Asias dramas (especially) the ones that are approx. 8 years + are based on Japanese light novels, manga, etc? Even those 2 sisters (forget their name) have copied Japan. Korean's don't give the Japanese writers credit which I think is horrible. Also, the Japanese are expert storytellers. They really don't need 20 episodes. They don't rerun the same scenes over and over and there aren't songs being sold in their dramas. Kdramas also have an overabundance of idols as do Taiwanese dramas. People come up with the silliest reasons not to watch Japanese dramas. I don't understand why.
I just finished Boku Unmei and I couldn't recommend it more. I've seen most of your list. Pretty good choices. I wish your list was a little more well rounded. I think Rich Man Poor Woman and Zettai Kareshi should be included.
I think there will be a special. I was surprised at the low ratings, too, so I checked their time slot. It came on at 10pm. I think the ratings were pretty good for that time slot. I was shocked it didn't come on between 7:30 - 9pm.
I thought it was me, but Kimura did resemble Maki at times. I think they cast her for that reason. I also think her hair was style to look like Maki.
LOL I'm not sure, but I think you may have soft balled it. I was expecting to see a title like Goblin in the list. Yes, I have truly unpopular views. I've only seen City Hunter and Playful Kiss. I agree with you wholeheartedly. TBH I've seen or attempted to watch 4 versions of Itazura na kiss and for the life of me I don't know why. The story is horrible. The lead female is confounding.
"Shit just got real," as they say. JH is going to be very hurt, but in the end he'll be family anyway probably. I'm worried about the poor baby. Episode 36 belongs to Mal Bom (Grandma).Her speech was awesome.
How'd the online mag get the photo? The story was easy to get really, but not that photo. I wonder if whoever gave Jung Hee the photo leaked the information. I've been wondering if he was the 3rd kid or if we'll be seeing him.
Personally, I wouldn't even think about putting the kiss scene at the end of episode 30 into any drama. However,…
I agree with you. Plus, maybe my family is weird or a little to emotional, but I kiss my siblings and I have 3 brothers. It's not sexual. It's a peck. I wonder if the music had of been different would the negative reactions been as severe. I found many to be childish tbh. It's definitely cultural.
I don't like Yoo Joo, but I really feel sorry for pregnant working women in SK if this is in any way indicative of how they are treated in the workplace. The other women are horrible, especially the bia trying to take her job.
