@ eiko and OML Ep 13

Can/t write long as I'm boarding a plane in 10 min. My biggest frustration with OML is, time and time again, they never build on the cliffhanger from the previous episode. The first half of Ep 13 is pretty disappointing although the second half of the 'family outing' sort of make it up a bit. I seriously have no idea of how they close off the drama with the remaining 3 episodes. Nevertheless, I'll give the PD/writer credits on protraying GH's character so consistently. It gives me a chuckle when she mentioned to her doctor friend 'where did MW get the acting skills to act/say she is his lover'. Let's hope we have a plot moving episode tonight!

@ epyc

What a treat at top of page, eh? I was on the previous page!

I am always amazed at how dramas can take on some critical situations at the last minute! 3 more episodes to go and still have to deal with his daughter and I think the mother is also coming into the picture?

Right now I'm not sure where the heck the plot is going and there hasn't been any indication about where Min Woo is going with the whole thing! Plus KH has defended his actions.

Also...Chief is beginning to look like he doesn't want the divorce but hasn't done anything to stop it! Does he like KH? He's a real complicated personality....

I'm curious about ep 14 also!

Wherever you are going....have a safe journey!!!

@ djes

i hope you're not refering to me.. being 60 and going to a kpop concert w/ a teenager. lols. i'm what some would call "an early starter" "young mother" whatever.. so the daughter and i are more like sisters than mother-daughter... and she hates that too! i mean, at 15, its so uncool for your 30 yr old mom to like the same things as you... but then again, it comes w/ its advantages.. like getting to go to a concert 5 hrs away cuz your mom is willing to *sacrifice* her time. lols.

seriously, SuJu is gonna do an album w/ just 10??? i mean, kibum should at least ACT like he's still a member even if he's not been one since like forever ago.. and KangIn needs some reform. boy's been all sorts of outta whack. i hope he can get his act together.. cuz i really do like him. and he's got such talent.. best of luck to him. and hangeng... awww.. my hangeng.. i wish him all the best. i do not want to see him part w/ SuJu, but he's gotta do what's best for him.. i just wish he could do what Star Empire is doing w/ V.O.S. you know, co-manage the group w/ 2 different entertainment companies...

@ eiko

re:YB.. my fave character was Jeremy too!!! oh how i gushed about him for days! and i'm still not fully over Jeremy.. (i just finished watching YB about 3 weeks ago) my love for Jeremy finally spilled over to HongKi and i've been acquainting myself w/ HongKi's voice. and i've even found pog pix to print out and carry my Jeremy w/ me everywhere. the daughter wants ShinWoo's but she's gonna have to find that on her own.. i got priorities. lol.

ahh.. YB... that was one magical ride. i can't imagine riding that rollercoaster as it was airing.. patience has never been one of my virtues.. no matter how much i try to make it be. i'm glad i waited to marathon it after it aired...

QSD - you dropped it early? When? Before ep21??
How? Kim Nam Gil joined in episode 21, as Bidam! The best thing about QSD was him, imho.

I'm actually rewatching it nowadays because I need some KNG in my life, during the weekends ofc, as Yoon Se-joon has me occupied on weekdays.

EoE was laughably ridiculous in the end, I can't believe it was the same drama, I absolutely loved everything about it in the beginning, I was... 'electrified' by it.
Then it bellyflopped. Such a shame.

Still, I have hopes for Giant, at least the first 25 or so episodes, Let's see. At least it's certifiable KSH is gon' be... 'electric' in it. I just know it.

Are you having trouble getting viikii? or whereever else you are watching? Because I can probably tell you how to sneak up on it with a US IP address.

Yes, I am. and I'm in Japan trying to do Viikii. Thank you for your post. I copied/saved it for later use. I'll try it once I finish my pre-work for tomorrow's class. I'm only posting since I don't know if it's pre twitter or post twitter. Really, Thanks a million!!!!

@supah: I'll let you know during episode 3 of Giant whether I'll stick around to watch it live and to the end with you... So many episodes! (But it should be worth it. Crossing fingers.)

@mookie: Old KH; Young KH. So much difference even without word or sound. I have such an intense urge to reach through the screen and brush old KH hair down so he looks like young KH and all his evil can dissipate.

@Amg1: I really like The Light Of The Spirit! I'd recommend some music... but... I usually listen to mashups at work, so my taste in music isn't very respectable.

o yes, that's an institution! :) I went there for gatherings w/ gfs as well, and everytime I saw a table or 2 of ladies having their nth highsch gathering there! it's also my dad's favorite (though he should not eat a 20 oz primerib...)
Are you still in town?

@janna,
what evil?! haha I dont see evil in KH, did he frustrate me? of coz. I can even see where 'evil' mom is coming fr... as long as I can comprehend why the characters say and do things, I'm perfectly contented w/ my drama.

I'm floored by those eloquent, thoughtful comments of various interpretations JBers posted in the CU9 thread, a good read indeed. I have a lot of hope for the characters (maybe too rosy...), because I can see them more attuned at being able to love and being loved.

There's rumor of HYS costarring w/ JGS... I cant be too excited about her, sorry. bleh

@ lb_tmi

It was really neat to follow YB on the internet first and then it aired on our local korean station. It's pretty tricky for me to follow any of the dramas because I have to rely on subtitles to get the gist of the story....watching facial expressions and body language doesn't tell the whole story accurately. I usually go back to watch dramas that I really enjoy because then I pay attention to different things. I've noticed that there are times when even the subbing interpretation has changed .... for example, if Viikii might have done it first and then it switches to Youtube or RuTube.

What made YB enjoyable was the music....the fact that all the actors were musicians in their own right really helped.

Have you seen Park Shin-hye sing and dance on her own? She's got an incredibly beautiful voice. I love the way she did Ave Maria. She's also a very good dancer. She was good with JGS but I really loved her with Lee Wan in Tree of Heaven....I thought they had incredibly chemistry. Would be nice to see them together again in drama....one where she's not crying so much! :-)

ok, i'm back for a short while and then back to lunch.. GRRR real life...

love the discussion about Kurosagi... when i saw it, i never thought of it as a fan-service drama... just as a drama that made no sense and still made me excited as hell and obsessed to death. but now, i can totally see all the fan-service aspect of the drama!
and yeah, the yamapi effect is deadly. and even less understandable than the kimutaku effect. altho i've just recently rewatched a kimutaku drama and for the first time, i noticed a lot of similarity between the two in the way they act and deliver their lines...

@supah
ur right! Kim nam Gil was good in QSD! I actually saw till ep 30 and then, i gave up. lol. i just browsed on sites from time to time to know what was going on and then, when Mishil died, I gave up on ever completing that drama.
wow... i'm so glad you also like EoE beginning! a lot of pple seemed to disagree... I loved it too.. and then, yeah, it became a wreck.
and yeah, i'll try out Giant until at least ep 5-6 and then decide if it's worth the ride... a whoopi 50 ep is no joke.
and lol and your comments on PP 9 thread... i've wrote a really long reply and then my computer crashed but maybe that's for the better. i think we already both stated our stance. lol
well, we agree that the drama is getting angstier and better. can't wait to see what ep 11 and 12 will unravel.. the previews they released are so intriguing.

@eiko
haha... I love jeremy too! he made me become a FT island fan! but i couldn't seriously pinpoint which character would be my favorite... i loved them all...
YAB was good good good times... following it live was the equivalent of rollercoaster ride, doubled up by a car wreck doubled up by a train wreck doubled up by a seismic shake.
and yeah, it's sad that SJ is only coming back with 10 members but there's hope that Hankyung case will settle and that he will come back to SJ. about kibum.. what is UP with him.. he ought to make it clear whether or not he intends to ever resume SJ activities... the way i feel about his case (anticipation, frustration, hope) is similar to how i felt with Jaebom of 2PM... except that the later ended up badly so I really hope i won't be disappointed this time. and Heechul is adorable and still in Super Junior and still doing activities and appearances in shows. but the guy sure looks like a girl.

@ v

Yamapi exists as a figment of the imagination sprung to life. Its as if a mad scientist (Johnny) managed to take early Johnny Depp circa 21 Jump Street (raw talent, untried, charisma like the screen can't contain, the either you have it or you don't type of aura) and cross-blended with the je ne sais quoi and eccentricity of Joe Cheng's performance as Kui in The Rose (what I have seen of The Rose, not yet finished).

And voila - put it inside the face of KimuTaku (Yamapi looks like KimuTaku's identical twin younger brother, esp. after Buzzer Beat and his cheekbones and streamlined v.2 that is no longer puppy-dog drunk and now puppy-dog hot yet boyish) - and you get Akira.

I find the Yamapi allure both fascinating as a dissection piece, and fun to ride along as a participant. And you add YamaKi as a ship, then you have the makings of uber-lore. Remember, the greats don't really become great on their own, most (not all) attain greatness because the pairing becomes so canonical it takes a life of its own. I would say KimuTaku transcends that requirement (and I refuse to discuss BYJ as a "great").

It doesn't have to be a male-female couple, or even co-stars. Tony Leung couldn't become Tony without Andy Lau. And so forth. I see Yamapi has transcended YamaKi, but then again, he's got a long ways to go as a Princeling to challenge and even succeed the Crown Prince himself.

I'm both looking forward to and dreading Tsuki no Koibito. Kimutaku in a straight on romance, its about time, but with the presence of Lin Chi-ling, whose "acting" is on par with nails on a chalkboard to me, I cringe inwardly.

Anyways, I started both Kurosagi and Buzzer Beat. If I'm riding the Yamapi train, better get it over and done with so I can move on back to actors I can actually carry a meaningful conversation about. And yes, screaming "I Want More PIE" is meaningful. :-P

@11 v

The character that turned me off, actually, in YB was Shin-woo.....he was as drab as a dried up autumn leaf! I had to laugh during his dialogue with Go Minam sitting on the bench at the airport and he suggested they "start over"....because the people they like didn't like them. I thought the look on her face was so cute....he didn't know that Taekyung had all ready made his move!

It's like what happened in Wish Upon A Star where nephew comes across Kang-ha and Pal-gang in the corridor and Kang-ha is holding on to PG. That scene really made me laugh out loud and what was funnier is how he kept stuttering and trying to explain himself about knowing that his other uncle was a rival but KH came from behind and stole PG! LOL LOL.....great acting in that drama!

I checked QSD here and there....I just wasn't into that much of it. Characters that got me were Deokman, Yushin and Bidam. Couldn't get over Bidam's hair style! What a gorgeous face.

Will check Giant....want to see how it goes.

One of the long ones I'm following is Daring Women.....it's very interesting and I'll end up following it for the long haul. When there's a good male and female lead it's rough letting go!

A long one on our local station that will be coming to an end this week is 2 Wives...I got hooked on that one because the story got pretty involved. I got caught up with cheering for the ex wife to latch on to the 2nd male lead....again, another drama where the female is older than the male. It seems to be the norm lately....but in the drama it's all about her being a divorcee with a kid. :-(

It's never boring....never, never.

Semi-spoilers for OML in case anyone is behind....
The musical choices in OML are amusing me. The other day, they were dancing to a bad cover of Prince's Kiss. Then today the number was "Can't Stop the Beat" from Hairspray. My mind boggles. 8-) First that they managed to find that weird cover of Kiss - except that I doubt Prince's version would skate by a censor, but - What the fercrickeny kind of pretend musical would have those 2 songs? LOL!

@eiko
well, i understand why Shinwoo turned you off since junghwa is a rookie actor and didn't give too much depth for his acting. for me though, i still felt charmed by his character, or rather at how knightly he acted... although i did wish he could be more proactive. but as chemistry goes, taekyung totally had minam.
hihi... wish upon a star.. i was surprised at how much this show grew on me... i have fond memories of it... haha.. (i'm talking as if it was not recent. lol) but i think i had more to do with the fact that it didn't have that many rivals of its genre at the time. or maybe just because the characters are endearing, especially the cute kids.
bidam's hairstyle... hot topic! and kang nam gil is handsome, of course.
daring women... i did checked the previews out before but didn't start it. usually, for dramas that have more than 100 eps, i wait until it goes to 40 ep to see how pple like it and then, i would jump on the ship... the only exceptions to this rule would be unstoppable high kick and some other dramas i forgot.. lol
i've never watched two wives but it's on my to watch list. but i thought it was over? is it not?
and i don't know about Pi looking like young kimu... actually, current pi with his hairstyle does look like kimura a bit... but then, i've always know Pi's since his trainee days when he was still a kid and back then, he had a really pretty pretty face with less sharpness of features like he does now so it makes it more difficult for me to associate those two.
@ockoala
haha... lol with your reference to the mad scientist and the cross-blend thingy..
i'm still fond of joe's perf in The Rose... he was one of the good thing in that drama with ella. and i do wish Pi stil had that eccentricity he had in his earlier dramas... now, he only has a im-cool-wooden-face attitude, which is bizarrely attractive but still missing that quirkiness. before, he was being his quirky self.

and like i said to eiko, i agree that current Pi, with the buzzer beat hairdo, looks a lot like kimu's younger brother but back then, when he still had a pretty face, he didn't look so much like the guy. but whatever the formula to get Pi, i'm glad Akira came out of it... and bizarrely, i'm glad kurosagi and ren came out of it too.

and yeah... YamaKi!!! i can't tell you how much I wanted that to work out.. it was fun and frustrating at the same time to wonder if they would end up together.. i could tell you how i feel about the way they handled that in kurosagi + the movie but don't want to spoil you on that. it's so funny how Pi has quite a few pairings and how fans of each are always battling about which paring is better.. XD
and yep, kimutaku transcends the pairing requirement but i loved his pairing in Pride nevertheless...
aww. Tony Leung and Andy Lau... that was great times.

but yeah, i agree with you.. Pi still hasn't reached the Kimutaku's status yet and I wonder if he'll ever get there... but he walking the path so far.

hmmm... regarding Tsuki no koibito, i'm just looking forward to it period. i am afraid of being disappointed by the main cast compromise of many actors that I like (beside Kimutaku of course) such as shinohara ryoko which i loved in Anego (talk about chemistry and pairing!).

Lol.. if you're riding the pi train, it might take a while to get over it... i for one watched all the projects his been in and i'm still not completely over it. Of course, i don't feel the same crazy obsession and am much more indifferent but i still do feel something since I went through the torture of watching Code Blue 2.

"I want more PIE" = meaning ful... ME: LMAO!

btw, i've just realized you were the one who wrote the review for TODAW on thundie's... lol.. it's been there for ages and i always thought it was thundie who wrote it... until i took a better look when i checked her blog today.

@ v and eiko

i'm w/ eiko, shinwoo was my least liked outta the male leads.. i liked the thought of shinwoo.. i liked that he took care of MN, but he didn't pursue her.. so i didn't feel he really deserved her. he really was just a shadow to MN.. in the background. and it didn't hurt too much when she refused him, cuz he didn't ever put himself out there. i do, however, think that JYH portrayed SW very well. i didn't think his acting was lacking (too much), for the most part, he was good. for me, it was more the storyline of SW that had me not falling for SW, not the acting.

now Jeremy, he went thru his own personal conflict, got over that and was just honest from the get go w/ his feelings for MN. and how could someone not absolutely LOVE him??? i mean, Jeremy was the most adorable and honest outta the whole bunch. i fell for him immediately. i have nothing but great things to say about the character Jeremy and LHK's portrayal of him. superb!

taekyung took a while to grow on me.. it wasn't until the singing in the field that i began to enjoy his presence.. up until then, he was irritating to me.. the rudeness and presumed self entitilement because he was the lead singer (which i later learned was because of his past.. so i easily forgave his early coldness). then when he kissed MN.. i was sold.

PSH, i liked in STH.. and i enjoyed her tremendously in Heaven's Tree. she was a passable MN, but i didn't think she was spectacular. for me, she was the most forgettable in YB. i think JGS and LHK just outshone everyone else... it could totally be my bias, but i don't really have a "memorable" scene stuck in my mind for MN... it was all about the guys for me.

Daring Women....it's at episode 45 now....things happening....the evil doings started from the beginning. I usually don't get into long dramas because it gets dragged out and so boring....but this one got me and now at the half way point there's some stuff beginning to happen.

About OML....I still haven't seen 14 yet....there's still so much to cover and MW really hasn't shown any emotion about what he said in the press conference except for when he went to get KH at the office and then when he looked at her asleep in the back of the car. I'm wondering if his emotions not going up and down because he's never experienced feelings for an older woman before.

I've noticed that many of the dramas deal with facial expressions....that smirk or teeny tiny smile....

I think Junghwa basically has a deadpan look....even at the awards he seemed to be like a robot. Whereas Hong-ki was relaxed and smiling....very personable.

You go, girl....whatever time zone you are in....it's still early here at not quite 10:30 a.m.

momochan shipped Shin Woo really hard for quite a while. She, practical critter that she is, was all "well, seriously in real life, he's the nicer guy! What girl wouldn't prefer that!" And then JGS smiled in that scene where they find their way back to the office and she melted and that was that. Honestly, she rewound it, froze the frame and called me over and went "OMG! That smile!" Oh well, another one lost to the smile.

Personally I think Hong Ki was adorable as Jeremy and is a darned good singer. 8-) Also, in the DC interviews, from what I gather with my limited Korean, the scene on the bus was basically done in one shot, and he had EVERYONE crying - PSH, the crew, everyone. Apparently, that scene being hands down voted the favorite scene in YB surprised the heck out of Hong Ki. I'd have to rewatch the director's interview again, but it seems to me that the director also said something nice about him.

@ 21 lb_tmi

I gotta say that the scene that got me laughing in YB is the first kiss scene....I was absolutely impressed with their dialogue! Talk about great acting! That is my favorite scene.....the way it escalated and he was so angry out of frustration and she was angry because she couldn't understand why he was angry at her! when he reached out and grabbed her by the neck....that was totally an off guard moment! I just went.....WOW!!!! After I watched that scene for the umpteenth time....the thought I had was.....darn I wonder how many takes they had to do to get that scene right with the arguing?

Then the 2nd kiss scene after the theatre. I loved the way that turned out with them going to the theatre and their bickering.....but what was so darn cute, was when the camera came to them asleep and they were holding hands. I thought that was saying much about TK in how he felt about MN. Plus had gone from a cold obnoxious sob.....to a jealous thoughtful human.

I agree...I didn't think MN was anything spectacular....she provided the distraction for the 3 males.

Jeremy was great in going through the different emotions when he was worried he was falling for a "guy"....and then wondering about the other 2 being nice to MN and finally, the relief that MN was really a girl!

I still don't care for the ending....it left some things up in the air because she was on her way out of the concert when TK announced for her presence....I thought she was supposed to leave that night. So they finished the concert and ended up at the house where TK gave her the necklace? But, I suppose that's as good as it gets. Of course, it was good enough that he did tell her he loved her.

Did you ever check out Soul Mate? That's where I first saw Shin Dong Wook and I really liked him in that role. he looks different in Wish Upon A Star.

Yes, I would believe Hong Ki is a very special person. I saw the video of the last day and he was hugging the crew and shaking hands....really warm person. He was smiling and posing with everyone. His warmth came through as Jeremy....and we all laughed and cried with him.

it was cute in the behind the scenes video where he kept flubbing his lines during the scene calling TK a butt hole! :-)

he's like a teddy bear you wanna hug all day long!

i first read your post a few OT's back about the bus scene and i was like "really? that scene was nothing" cuz it was the first "magic bus scene" but i hadn't gotten to THE bus scene. and then, i was a bawling boogery swollen eye mess the whole day!!! and then if that wasn't torture enough, i had to watch THE bus scene again that same evening, and then dl the clip that JB was so kind to rip from the ep.. and listened to LHK over and over and over again for 4 hrs. then i went and searched for more FTI to add to my small collection. i'm still looking for more to keep me occupied until i can put a lilo more moola aside to make my big purchase from YA... which includes the YB DVDs that are being released next month :)

LHK definitely deserves the honors of best scene. that scene is a masterpiece. the most memorable scene in a kdrama for me EVER.

@ eiko

i LOVE the 2nd kiss scene, where TK is gonna flick MN and then swoops in.. i was watching the BTS on youtube and died laughing at how many takes they were doing.. it's a really great scene.. but by the time the 2nd kiss came around, i was already a OTP shipper, even if i loved Jeremy more!

i have to find the BTS of LHK and the butt-hole comment making!!!

and i feel you on the ending.. it was not the best considering the rest of the drama was pretty darn good... excellent.. enjoyable. i didn't have much closure with the ending.. but dang if that concert w/ TK singing was extraordinary. how fitting for TK to be singing MN's parents song for her!!!

---------------------------------------------

''SPOILER ALERT
Episode 16 Ending Scene: AIRPORT

Lawyer walks dejectedly to departure gate. He looks up and sighs deeply. He strengthens his shoulders and continues on his lonely walk.

Suddenly, a hand reaches out and grabs his arm. He looks up, startled.

It is Hye Rin. She has tears in her eyes.

“Don’t go,” she whispers.

“I..I have to,” he says, anguish in his eyes. ” I put your father in jail. Your mums all broken. Your reputations in shreds. Its my fault. I did all that to you…I have to go…”

But she flings her arms around him and holds him tight.

“I don’t care abut all that.. all I want is you. That dratted gloomy grumpy prosecutor Yoon can go date himself from now on. I wasted all that precious time on him..that oaf!! It was you that I love all this time. I was so blind. Don’t go…don’t leave me,” she sobs,”I’m nothing without you.”

They fall into each other’s arms, weeping.

Goodbye My Princess swells to a crescendo…camera pans away from the two figures locked in each others arms….. THE END''

I've read some real crazy stuff from team IW members but this has to be the cutest!

I too am a k-pop loving grandma. My latest obsession is Super Junior (and SS501, and 2AM and........). All are talented and have their charm, but Chullie is my favorite member. He is still very active with the group and participated in all of their latest Asia Tour concerts.

I never thought Heechul would be in a show like Family Outing because it does not seem to be his style, so I was shocked when it was announced that he had joined the family as a permanent member--now I believe in miracles! I hope this will help raise the entertainment value and ratings of the show.

I like how the idols on SM take care of and support each other as a real family. Super Junior, Shinee and SNSD are like brothers and sisters who have grown up together. One can see on their faces and eyes how proud and happy they feel when their siblings do well.

Hey....nice to meetcha! Thanks also for the tip on Heechul being on Family OUting! I can watch it here on our local station.

My favorite song by Super Jr. is Sorry Sorry....have that in my favs so I can get to it right away. I love their dance routine.

So many fun things to do.....not enough hours in a day! :-)

Lulz, that was definitely NOT serious! I think there'd be some serious concern if dramas of THAT standard were still being made anywhere in the world. But it was a good laugh, reading that!

@ V
Heck yeah, I was in stitches!!
Sorry, missed your earlier comment on QSD and EoE, was rushedly skimming through earlier and I'm a bit blind, too. But hear hear! And bummer at your PP comment going AWOL.

Yes, still here. Will be here until Sunday and then fly to Vegas for a few days.

Went on a bike ride around the bay and then over the GG bridge. Oh boy, I am sooo unfit. Not recommended for folks who do NO EXERCISE EVER ... like me.

Am off to see a baseball game now. I hear the garlic fries are something to try. Will let you know how it all goes.

@ supah. My Lady I want to thank you for being an outstanding allied, when it comes down to the 'In-woo Blunder', Maybe because I am a Guy that I do not see In-woo as benign or cute for that matter, I am glad that you being a Lady can see part of what I am saying for what it is, I really do not know many females specially here in America that will find it amusing to be drag by the wrist by a guy, or to be kissed with out their 'Consent', I am so glad that man had the foresight to create such a word otherwise I could possibly find In-woo's behavior amusing!!!!
Team SJ/HR 100%

@janna, epyc, Amg1-- team SJ!
Group hug time...

You know, I was thinking of writing my own SJ version of the ending, similar to few IW Airport scene ones floating around... or shall we let the kids have their fun while it lasts? I think we'll be exemplary and not interfere.

This sudden race for HR from the end of ep7 onwards kind of feels reminiscent of the cliffhanger scene in episode 3. Where both male leads were breakneck speeding down the highway trying to reach her in time to save her, IW on his motorbike and SJ in his sleek, black vehicle. It was such a intense scene I was gnawing at my nails, on the edge of seat, chanting: OMGiloveyougeneralchoiiloveyousososomuchithastobeyou...
ohmygaaaaaawwdpleasepleasepleasepleasepleeeeeaseithastobeyouyouaretheONE!
And suddenly there's a flash of a silhouette running across the fields where you can hear HR's screams as she's being so brutally beat up and then....

KABOOOOM!!!

Yoon! Se! Joon!

Kicked ass!
And you know why he got there earlier? Because he had the GPS device that HR had planted.
And what pray does the GPS device stand for? HR's beating heart...
Who has her heart?
BINGO!
So who gets the girl?
You got it! Say no more.

*sticks out tongue at IW*

Now I shall sleep and have sweet dreams of sunbaenim!

@33 eiko

Muchas gracias, amiga. (May I call you "friend"?)

I've been a dramabeans addict for a while and have always enjoyed your posts.

You're lucky to be able to watch FO on TV. I have to wait for the episodes to be subbed and uploaded on veoh. I couldn't wait for this episode to be subbed, so I watched it raw. Season 2 has been hard to watch. This is the first episode of S2 that I enjoyed.

It's hard to say which is my favorite SJ song and choreography, I like so many. Have you heard their R&B version: "Sorry Sorry Answer"? I also like the choreography of
"Tic Toc" and "Supergirl"

@38 v

I follow the SJr thread @ soompi and read about it. I'm not surprised, and was expecting Kangin to do this like Joo Ji Hoon did as a way of damage control for their blunders. Nevertheless, I am sad and have missed him a lot. I wish him the best and that he will come out of his MS a better man.

Si....mi amiga!

By the way....I only took 1 year of Spanish in high school which was a killer! I was intrigued with French....but Spanish was the only language offered. Nowdays there's French and Japanese also. Sadly....my parents never taught us Japanese or Filipino so we only know words.

My grand daughter, Carissa, would rattle off stuff on Super Jr. without blinking an eye. She likes the Japanese groups also.

Tonight is OML on local station....will sit and watch that one "again".

I also go to Viikii to check certain dramas and right now DW is very popular and I check the section on SPOILERS....it gets pretty crazy there cause the episodes are getting good and very stressful! :-)

Have a nice evening...wherever you are!

So...are we gonna hit the 500? I've never seen it go this far! But then, I've never seen so much dialogue going on in such a short period!

We're all talkative and long winded this time around!

OT has passed 500 multiple times, and even 600. :-)

credit to momosan and belleza, of course, and dolphins, William Wallace, Bora, and a plethora of topics I fondly file away in that part of my brain that says brevity is the soul of wit, except when an over caffenaited gang all engage in collective verbal sparring. All in the name of distraction.
