I know, wasnt it?

I really liked this show. Smiles and tears just right.

Looking forward to can this love be translated. Go Youn Jung is the hope for a future of lead actresses in drama who are well-trained versatile and flexible. The industry has been playing it safe with maturing child actors, but frequently those actresses are stuck in mannerisms and their technique isnt under their control.

yes. and why a 'fertility' drawing? and what were the other drawings on nine or however many poor victims there were?

I felt weird too. Really lost.

I wrote a review and then deleted it and then reposted it. Loyalty to LJW conflicts with dislike of the show. And lack of confidence -- I am old enough to remember the Heaven's Gate disaster which now people seem to really appreciate. Maybe this will be better when I get around to rewatching it.

I really liked the show -- decent episode structures, really endearing completely exhausted and often unwashed residents. Really endearing. Sneaky, sneaks into your heart.. good production value, excellent character writing, good acting. What's not to love? But the very best thing is that it questions authority and hierarchy intelligently.

Is this airing on asia netflix? I just saw (on breathlesssurvival) that netflix picked it up for the 18th of May but I dont see it in the US. I am watching on viki and happy abt how well it is doing in china, so I guess I dont care.

I like getting confused and then reading other people's comments, its fun. Then I dont feel alone, and its easier to wait for what will come next.

Some confusion is deliberately created by writers to get the audience more involved too i think. .

Yes, I think its cute. He is such an emotional being. I like that the character doesnt stray too far from the ideas of a 'real' imugi -- a creature of weather water and fertility of the earth. Flowers still blossom when he wants them too, even though he is losing his more violent powers.

smiling

the key to a great screen kiss right there -- the emotion expressed around the (closed) eyes. desire plus yearning plus a stilled surprise.

I find it hard to tell the old bearded ones apart too. Wish they came colorcoded!

I am so happy we are watching a classic 16 ep drama, I am on 9, so I will have 5 more episodes to watch. What a pleasure!

I love your drama. For what its worth, in the first few eps of DH I suspected Jaeyi of having killed Hongrang somewhat intentionally. She kept gripping her left arm at the elbow. when she heard the white man's whoosh.

Hi. You have a lot of fun ahead of you in 'sageuk' the korean version of period dramas, so enjoy. Only, they wont look like Hongrang at all! Sageuk doesnt do realistic costuming, it concentrates on fun and social commentary, often very witty, and on sweet romance, sometimes tragic.

.absolutely. such a mess

I am totally with you on JBA -- a bundle of nerves on screen with only one way to weep and one way to smile.

me too!! Was he a real person? It seems so...

apologies for the miscomment. prisoner ofB is amazing.
