Dramabeans 5-Year Anniversary Giveaway #3
by javabeans
girlfriday: Week three of the blazin’ birthday giveaway extravaganza extraordinaire!
javabeans: You know what that means: More presents! Man, what a spoiled 5-year-old Dramabeans is.
girlfriday: Right? If DB were a kid, we’d have one needy brat on our hands.
javabeans: Then again, most 5-year-olds receive presents, and DB’s giving ‘em out. Although I don’t know who gave that kid my credit card info.
girlfriday: Is that what’s going on? That explains a lot. This time we’re giving away a brand new iPod nano, but that’s not the best part. It’s chock full o’ goodies! It’s got a Javabeans Playlist on it, which I’m gonna venture to say is worth more than the player itself.
javabeans: We’ve also got a few more premium memberships to give out to Dramafever, in case you want to get friends/siblings/parents addicted to your drama poison of choice. Because as we know, drama addictions are best shared, not cured.
girlfriday: Yeah, rehab’s for quitters, and we’re no quitters!
javabeans: So get crackin’! By which we mean, please post up lots of nice thoughts for our many many guest posters over the years.
girlfriday: They know how much we appreciate them, but as we know from personal experience, sometimes the warmest thanks comes straight from you guys, so please be generous with the love!
And the winners of Giveaway #2 are…
Bethany , winner of a one-year premium subscription to Dramafever,PrincessSerenity81 , winner of a one-year drama membership to Crunchyroll,- and
Bluefyre , winner of one $100 gift certificate to Yesasia.
Congratulations! We’ll be contacting you shortly via email. On to the next one!

Aww, this one is awesome! I want to thank everybody :( I'm honestly so thankful that people take out time from their busy lives to make such great posts. I don't have the time to be as addicted to kdramas as I did when I was younger, so it's great to be able to read what I can't see. So for that I definitely have to throw out a special shout out to gummimochi for Running Man (I mean, I'd love to watch every episode of it but...) especially, and an equally special shout to kaedejun - I don't know what it is, but you always manage to recap dramas that I'm not entirely gung-ho about watching but might want to check out. Your recaps make my nights :D and more often than not I find myself going to watch them anyway based on what you said (or not, I'm sorry you had to finish off series like Athena or Romance Town but I'm happy you did), sleep be damned.
Thank you dramabeans :D you've been a constant source of drama/film/variety fun pre-eminence!

I would like to thank gummimochi for the Running Man recaps! I love RM the cast and crew there are amazing and the show is just so much fun to watch. Who'd know I'd love reading recaps about it, as much as watching the actual show? I love your recaps and little side notes, especially when I've missed an episode.
Thanks so much! :DD

To Samsooki-oppa,
Thank you for the Samsoon recaps! It's one of my most absolute favorite Kdramas, and I was so happy that you took the time to recap it even though it's a classic. Your recaps weren't just plain recaps; you were able to treat us with humor and heart that was needed for a drama such as Samsoon. I'm glad JB and GF gave you a chance to post your thoughts here because it rekindled my love for thoughtful yet fun dramas!

Hello there kaedejun!
Just wanna let you know how much I enjoy your posts, aside from our mutual love for Park Shi Hoo, your posts are funny and witty in just the right way. I've sort of been stalking your blog as well because not only do I get my PSH fix there, but I also find myself saying "OMG that's exactly what I was thinking!" while reading your posts lol. Thank you for your contribution to Dramabeans and of course the work you do on your blog as well.

I would like to thank gummimochi for recapping Running Man :D I normally watch Running Man without subs and I could only understand 40 percent of what is going on and sometimes I just laugh along with the show because I could see the cast laughing but I do not understand them. But, reading the recap by gummimochi helps me understand and put together the sequences of the things I understand and the things I don't understand while watching Running Man.
Thank you very much gummimochi :D I know its time consuming to recap the show, but you continue to recap for us :D

With all the effort they had put into recaps/feature reviews, both writers deserve a round of happy applause and recognition! *clap clap clap*

I love how all of the contributors write! I especially love javabeans and HeadsNo2 because they recapped two of of my favorite dramas last year (Secret Garden and Tree with Deep Roots). It was because of JB's recaps that I became interested in watching kdramas after "abandoning" it when work became too stressful. HeadsNo2's work on TwDR made me understand much better what was happening in the drama and well, it was much much better to read something to satiate my overexcited appetite to watch the said drama. I cannot count how many times I refreshed a page in a day waiting for their recaps. 8D Thanks a lot!

Thank you for taking time out of your life to recap for foam at the mouth crazy korean drama fans like myself!! Your guest recapping skills never cease to amaze me!! Keep up the good work and I can't wait to see what insightful, gut busting recaps you have in store for 2012!!!!
P.S Your year end review made me realize that it was possible for someone else to not be in love with Best love. I was starting to think that I was weird....and not the good kind of weird.

Dear gummimochi,
Thank you so much for recapping Running Man. Most of Running Man is self-explanatory without subs, as they do not require much to figure out the games (unlike dramas, where if I watch without subs, I'll end up not knowing a big plot line, heh) but your recaps definitely bring it to another level of understanding for me. Thank you so much once again! Hope you continue to recap Running Man! ^^
