  1. Past hour
  2. Coming to think of it are there any dramas of girls serving in the army ? I think SK is such a male dominated society, so rare to hear girls wanting to do that @triplem ~ thats part of why I love this drama. people think that older dramas are boring and miss out on gems like this. yes the cinematography is not great and the fashions are kind of odd looking back but really one has to look at the story.. there were lots of stuff that still remain fresh in this drama because it was atypical. (tagging @kokodus) ... so mentioned the girl's dream but one of the other things that doesn't get covered often -- a chaebol who goes broke and conned. sometimes we see that almost like a flashback in revenge melos but to have that covered as part of plot in a rom-com? and the guy becomes flat out broke where his friends abandon him and the only people who he has are this girl and some staff who used to work for him... we are used to chaebols who are business smart and know how to run a business but what about a lazy lead who doesn't know the business and actually isn't that smart? .. and so his journey deals with the aspect of going broke, the depression, the heartache and clawing his way back. this is the sort of thing that may get covered in a revenge melo but it is definitely far from rom-com territory. think it is one of the reasons the drama had a 40% rating in its time though it is not well known now. it came out in 2000 after the asian financial crisis when there were many people who were struggling financially. so to see a cheerful story where people are dealing with this kind of crisis in a plucky manner was fantastic. remember my mom saying that actually both the leads have sort of pathetic lives but they are so plucky that it is fun to watch them and it is not depressing... and I share @stroppyse hesitation towards female leads who are in high school when they meet but here it worked because she is actually 2 years older than her classmates (at 19/20) -- so she failed one year LOL and had to drop out another due to her con artists parents. so now her focus is to settle the debt of her parents, graduate and go back home to the countryside -- so she has no time for what she feels is city folks nonsense LOL... so how often do we see a female lead who is not competent and failed high school? LOL and the drama had one of my favourite love confessions because it was kind of backwards. they both ask "why do you like me?" with a genuine puzzled air. her: "why do you like me? am average looking, am not smart, not educated, not sophisticated like city people, have bad family background?" and his response is "why do you like me? am 8 years older than you. am an orphan. am ill-tempered and grouchy. am stupid to get conned and lose the business. so am not smart and now am broke." .. and they both smile and give a simple reason where they talk of just an action the person did. it isn't some grand confession.. but yea, what I liked is that they directly deal with the question "why do you like me?" -- how many dramas do that? in so many dramas, we have no idea why and sometimes it seems like that it has all to do with hormones and chemistry perhaps? -2

  4. After watching the scene where RG and DM got into a fight until DM meeting up with her friends, I somehow don't think that the biggest threat would be DM choosing over between SA and RG or DM shaking off her fangirling side for RG. But of course, maybe it's true that there will be the time where she has to do that for RG's sake. My reason: When SA came to the gallery, DM couldn't hide her fangirl self even in front of her co-workers. But when she met with SA in the elevator ALONE, DM didn't fangirl that much. Later on with her friends, she didn't fangirl with SJ too. It's because her mind is filled with RG and this somehow showed me that DM already choose RG. *As a fangirl myself, I couldn't imagine myself being in the same elevator with TOP lol. (Not to mention if it's just the two of us!!) I surely will not be as calm as DM is at that scene.* Hehe, just my thoughts.
  5. Such a waste...this drama started so good then went downhill. They dragged the mental illness of SH too long, then this 2 year jump is nonsense. The writer messed this one up, too bad i was really liking the pace of the story before and all the actors they did pretty good portraying the roles, im pretty sure everyone watching was so disappointed.
  7. My Goodness !!! Please don't ask me to translate this ok ! hahahahahhahaha VERY HOT !!!!

  9. Awww, just saw the BTS and I really love how PMY called him "oppa" She was always getting paired up with younger male leads so I'm happy she gets paired with older guy for once. Lmao at knetz saying how holding hands can be so erotic.. So far I really looove all the skinship in this drama because none of it was too cheesy and the amount of sexual tension is insane!! I hope we get to see makeout sesh later on tbh
  10. Oh boy! I read this short fanfic (Google Translate) and it’s steamy. If you can read Chinese, try it out. https://media.weibo.cn/article?object_id=1022%3A2309404363133903879939&extparam=lmid--4363133906663864&luicode=10000011&lfid=1076032203352950&id=2309404363133903879939
  11. @Blizzardistkaputt @ellelyana88 Sigh.... This is really very upsetting and disappointing!
  12. Aww it's great to see their reaction. Seem like they had fun making and watching the show. Finding more inspiring dancers in the group..can make a separate video about that alone haha... Can't wait to see it sub now. Thanks again you are such a sweetheart .
  13. Hello everyone....how is it going? I've been watching HPL and enjoying it too! I'm such a PMY fan-gurl!!! My two cents on PMY-KJW chemistry - I've rarely seen PMY so carefree and happy. She seems to be very comfortable around KJW. She teases him, goofs around with him and laughs a lot! That makes me happy...just to see her smile! But it seems to me that PMY is so relaxed with KJW (as compared to PSJ) because as if nothing can ever happen between them. For a moment I was curious if KJW is gay (nothing wrong with that)! I don't want to call them bro-sis coz it will really spoil the show for me. As a PMY fan, I want the show to do well and for that the two leads need to have good chemistry. But I will be very surprised if they are anything more than colleagues. On the other hand, PMY-PSJ relationship definitely is more mysterious...there is scope for a lot more! So I hope you continue to enjoy this ship without spoiling HPL for people like me, who are a part of this ship but want to enjoy HPL too! Peace!!!
  14. ok so they are showing what actually happens in their industry ...that prosecutor thing was horrible
