Hey, you're watching The Winter, That Wind Blows. I don't like that title, lol. But i'm really enjoying the show. It's only 5 episodes in, but Jung Eun Ji's character is already threatening to blow the whole thing! I'm not looking forward to when Song Hye Gyo finds out that Jo In Sung isn't her brother. She's going to be utterly heartbroken. It's taken her so long to actually trust him! But i actually want it to happen sooner rather than later because if she starts having romantic feelings for him while still believing he's her brother, its just gonna be creepy. But if she doesn't find out for ages, and doesn't develop feelings for him either, then it's all gonna be wholly on his side. And that won't be as good. So i'm looking forward to watching it play out.

I know! I can't believe they killed Jeremy! I didn't know they were going to, so i was totally surprised. Cuz i figured he'd come back to life because of the ring, but then they said he was supernatural now as well, and i was like NOOOOO!

It looks like Klaus is gone for good though, was he even in this episode at all?

At the end, when we saw Shane lying there in the forest, you automatically knew that it was Silas pretending to be Shane, but then of course Shane has to be awake enough to say Silas's name, just in case the audience hadn't caught on to who he was, lol. He's totally brainwashed Bonnie, i don't know how that's gonna end.

I think Elena is going to regret burning her house down. All of her stuff. Photos, everything that belonged to her parents, sister, brother. All gone. When she gets her "humanity" back, she's not gonna be happy.

Javabeans and Girlfriday each give their opinion of the show at the bottom of the recap - http://www.dramabeans.com/2013/02/flower-boy-next-door-episode-16-final/. I find i agree with Girlfriday more than Javabeans in most things, but in this case, they both pretty much say the same thing.

I don't know when i became their spruiker, lol. The reason i posted the link was because i think you'll agree with everything they say. I know i pretty much do. But only read it after watching the last episode.

I dunno about that, there was a lot of fighting before they decided they liked each other for real. I really liked it when they'd accepted their feelings and worked with each other when the body swaps happened though.
As for Flower Boy Next Door, the girls at Dramabeans.com said a similar thing. They're always looking for a show that subverts the usual cliches, so when they hope a show will, and then it doesn't, they get disappointed, lol. I find that i don't mind as much because i just always expect it. It's a Korean drama, when do they NOT have a trillion cliches. I'm just happy that i now consider Park Shin Hye an actually good actress instead of someone who i really wasn't sure about, lol

It looks like you enjoyed Secret Garden. I found i liked it at the beginning, and then it dragged a bit in the middle and i was a bit bored, but then it got better. And some things were just ignored and not answered, so that was a bit stupid. But i think both actors did an awesome job. And i liked Oska with the younger singer because the singer kept telling him he was gay and every time, Oska was like "what does that have to do with me?", lol. He was so clueless. Plus, that was Lee Jong Suk as the singer, and that was when i decided i was gonna follow his career.

She totally didn't mean for them to overhear her, she was surprised when she saw them there. I think Jin Rak just saw the situation and realised he could use it to help her with the whole "push Enrique away" thing. With the voice overs, they made it seem like she'd planned it, but how would she know if and when they were gonna show up? So i'm looking forward to next week to see what happens. Last week next week!

Hey, have you seen that they're gonna make a spin off of Vampire Diaries called The Originals, that focuses on Klaus. And it's gonna have Rebekah and the werewolf girl from this season (Phoebe Tonkin). I'm not quite sure how I feel about that because it means that we're definitely not gonna get a Klaus/Caroline couple. Not if he's gonna be on his own show :-(.

Oh, and the ending of the latest episode! I didn't expect Katherine to show up! How did she even know that they were looking for the cure?

Dude! You have to watch the latest eps of Flower Boy Next Door! I need to scream with you! Note: that will make sense when you've actually seen them...

Oh. Do Hwi! They're trying to get us to actually care about her, urgh. I really hate her, i don't want to see her redeemed, i just want her to go away, lol.

Flower Boy ep 11! How are they going to fill another 5 episodes with them together now? And i was reading the comments on the Dramabeans website, and people don't like Jin Rak! At least, they don't care much about him. I don't know how that's possible, ha ha

Ha, that's funny. I'm actually getting annoyed with Bonnie. I have no interest in seeing her go evil, which is totally the track she's heading down. And i think you're right. It's not Elena as such but the situation that i find annoying. I never wanted Damon and Elena to get together, i'm a Stefan/Elena girl, because those two are meant to be, whereas the best thing about Damon and Elena was the tension. Which is gone now. Damon is being so pathetic with the whole 'when Elena becomes human she won't love me anymore'. Pfft, he's hardly even letting her be with him now, but he's already scared of what's going to happen later? As for Rebecca, i am loving her. I like her and Stefan together, and everything she says at the moment is so spot on, lol. It's like she's saying what everyone is thinking. I want Klaus and Caroline to get together but i just don't know if it's ever gonna happen :-(

I never watched Iris so i'm not gonna watch Iris 2, but i'm thinking I might read the recaps on Dramabeans. If i really like them, then i might watch the first season, lol. And in a complete switch from Asian dramas to Western... are you up to date with Vampire Diaries? What do you think? Elena is just getting annoying, quite frankly, although i think that's because once she's with Damon, she's not as interesting.

Lol! Does that make me a really bad person for not realising? ha ha. I used to be on Tumblr every day, but now i just go on when i have nothing else to do. I realised that you were you when i was going through my old posts looking for something, and found a thing from you telling me all the EXO members, ha ha. It took me forever to stop mixing them up :-P

Do you know what I just realised? I already follow you on Tumblr, lol. From like, months ago. That's not surprising, really, but i just found it funny. I'd say "it's a small world" but it's not when you're in this particular obsession, lol

Hey, you're watching Level 7 Civil Servant :-). Me too. It's actually only eps 5 and 6 that i decided that it was a good show, lol. The first week was very unconvincing, but then it picked up in the second week although still was a bit borderline. But this week was really funny, and sometimes very unexpected. I reckon it's gonna drop in the ratings next week when Iris 2 starts though.

Oh ok. That would make more sense. Cuz i really didn't understand why she asked Jin Rak out. I guess she's been so isolated that she wouldn't realise that to him, asking him to an art gallery is the start of a relationship, whereas she's just thinking of saying goodbye.

Yeah, i think i was gonna watch Shinahwa's show originally and then when it wasn't subbed straight away, i just forgot about it, lol.
But.. omg next weeks episode of Flower Boy Next Door! Do you watch the preview for next week? It looks good!
I was surprised when she asked Jin Rak to the art gallery in ep 10, i still don't know why she did that. And she basically told Enrique that she liked Jin Rak instead of him. Now that, i understood. But i figured she was just saying that, i didn't expect her to actually ask Jin Rak out. But did you see Jin Rak's smile when they were walking into the Gallery? Too adorable!
Oh, and Enrique is totally acknowledging that his whole 'happy' thing is just a facade. I love that. And he's doing it less and less.

Do you watch Shinhwa's variety show? I don't, but one of my friends occasionally posts videos from it, and it looks like a hilarious show. I was watching one video the other day where they were all in the car singing along to various songs, and it was just so stupid and dorky, it was awesome.

I always find that the longer shows aren't subbed as quickly as the mini dramas. Is that the case with Cheer Up Mr Kim, or are the episodes subbed pretty quickly?
Oh, i just watched this week's episodes of Flower Boy Next Door. Next week looks like it'll be good! And this ep, where Jin Rak has realised that Do Hwi knows who he is. That should be interesting. Oh my god though, I want to shoot Do Hwi. I don't even like her in a "love to hate" kind of way; i genuinely just want her gone from the show. She's so annoying!

Do you read the recaps on Dramabeans.com? I find they're really good, i agree with the two main girls (Javabeans and GIrlfriday) on a lot of things, and if i'm not satisfied with something, they sometimes can help make it more satisfactory. Or like, they won't like it either, and it's just really good to read their opinions on it. You should check it out.
I don't know anything about Cheer Up Mr Kim. I don't watch long shows or sitcoms, lol
