it's the stick I blame on his cane! Anyone with a cane in a drama usually turns out to have some creepy ass side to them.

On the other hand, I can't empathise with her character. with all the abuse she got when she was a kid at school, she did deal with it to an extent, so there is some backbone to her initial character but it's like that all went up in fluff after the incident. I guess after something that bad, it would have an effect on her personality but it's like there is no more So Yeon. Like literally she's amalgamated herself with Hyung Joon. I think 10 eps in there should be some development if only an inch.

imagine her with Park Shin Yang...and I ended up shipping them to boot :p ha! I didn't realise that, damn when the good ones come they come all together, don't they?

you hate korea's little sister? :O lol ok fine, but come around 10 episodes and you're definitely watching, for the love of Si Hoo at least ^^.

ah~ this was adorable <3

lol 'horny' totally covers HQB XD Have you watched the earlier installments in the Beauty series? It still looks good from the images they've released, I'm not too sure about the story though. There's only so much entertainment you'll find in palace intrigue.

Female prime minister's couple really is cute...haha i went to the page on mdl, and noticed you read Jolecole's blog. I love her blog her too :)

I agree she is wilder in her ways than Rouxi, I guess Rouxi embodies the modern woman so she doesn't push it too far, but Jin Yu's awesome in the fact that she starts off like she has no clue about the world. I loved the way she used to talk to her dad, and I think it's when she first meets Huo Qi Bing (can't quite remember, or was it another character) she blatantly says it out loud that he's handsome XD

I think I'll live with Eddie so long as he puts on a good performance :)

I know, it's gorgeous! I hope they finally decide to air it, it's been like forever~ since they said they would. I think it had something to do with SARFT and censorship rubbish. Gah I don't care about political messages any more, just show me some pretty!

Btw that still from Female Prime Minister is soooo~ pretty XD

Umm I didn't put the correct date in for DOB so it's not birthday until another few months, but thankies for the early wishes anyway :)

when I heard something like CL was his ideal my eyes were 0_o, but Ivy and him would make a cute OTP. acutally i think ockoala did an article later on and she had this totally amusing fanfic playing that Eun Shi Kyung hadn't died at all, just abandoned king and country to go live in Taiwan to stop putting his life at risk. And then something about cheating on princess Jae Shin with Ivy lol.

Umm I guess she's being given the traits of a guy this time around. Usually girls figure out their feelings faster than the male counterparts, maybe it's a take on gender and role reversals? As smart as the drama was I still didn't like it all that much. It took me about 3 years to finally finish it, not sure why I did though. Lol i hate the awkward kisses, but lately I think I've seen some better ones *cough* Roy Chiu <3

I think it's supposed to be a hyperbole, a sort of reference to Anthony Kim's character who is a self professed know all PD. Which he sort of is, conniving, Machiavellian butt head that he also is.

Ah I think I've heard about that, is it the one where they go to different counties and date and stuff?

Ha, thanks for the reccomendation, I'll try to :)

IKR! how can he look so damn pretty? Infatuated? Yep I'm guilty :D

Looool the power of Eun Shi Kyung is still up, running and formidable XD The fact that he was paired with Ivy was twice as good, can you sense the girl crush? :p

The acting is good, it's another side to Matsujun for sure, there's no over acting or exaggeration that you might usually see in Jland. But I think while I appreciated that aspect of realism in their acting, the story felt a bit...I don't want to offend Omni (she still has awesome taste in dramas) but it felt a little like going back and forth and then sometimes not going anywhere. Sumire took her real~ sweet time figuring out that you can't treat humans like pets. And even if you did, animals have feelings too. Her cold distanced self could have taken the shorter route to self understanding if only for the viewers enjoyment i guess. Meh I'm not much for realism anyway.

Yh that's where I've been reading it as well, I really like Yu Jin's character, she's so fearless and says whatever she likes. It does kind of remind me of Rouxi in a way as well, her boldness and her dialogues are just really fun to read in and amongst the political stuff that's going on.

Actually I've been meaning to fan girl over her Luo Lan outfit from all the stills, Shi Shi looks super pretty *_*

I haven't read Yun Zhong Ge yet, gah~ not a huge fan of sad endings, but I think I'll read it just to see what it's like.

I had a recent look it's actually 36 eps according to some sources, I would have thought close to 50 as well since it's a period drama.

Ah~ well still Hawick in something that appears worth watching and the Manchurian outfits look great even if they're a little off.

Hi, I wanted to ask you what you thought of Da Mo Yao, since I started reading it kind of late, I missed the chance for discussion. Since I read that you've read it, I was wondering what you thought? :)

I don't think Shi Shi and Hu Ge have ever played direct OTP's ever either, I mean you've got to be blind not to see how good they would look together.

I heard this was going to air during the summer, I hope they finally stick to this airing date, or else I'll be bummed out.

the drama finally knocked out love rain in terms of japanese dvd sales, which was quite a bit. didn't think it would have been this popular overseas.

I think some of it's been subbed, not sure how far though, on gooddrama.net

It's airing tomorrow! Yay! Si Hoo, Nam Goong Min, Moon Geun Young! it's finally on XD ah~ i had to spazz after I realised *_* You're going to keep up with this one as it's currently airing right? Please tell me you are, or else I'm just going to end up bummed out with no one exert the sheer happiness with. (yh I know the plot sounds like garden variety chaebol and poor girl but pwetty please) ^_^

I don't think it's got anything to do with the production being rude to the artists, but the fact that most of the audience won't be familiar with the accent like you said. And well if the main audience doesn't understand the language it goes beyond the point of watching it.

Also when they do the dubbing most actors don't have the time to come back and do their own voices be that due to their schedule or w/e which is why it gets dubbed.
