Beanie level: Eunuch in drag

This is so romantic in a very unusual way. Glad I picked up the show again after a two-week hiatus!

    That must be one of my most favourite scenes!

      I love how he knew she would be here, and that that was her because she’s the only one who couldn’t bear to watch. And her offering her finger for him to hold afterwards XD

        Oh yes. The whole scene was just awesome.

I love Aera’s dignity and how she fights for and respects herself even when she’s feeling vulnerable and down.

    Drama land needs more WOMEN, not girls, like Choi Ae Ra…. all the sappy girls can continue to be Candy all they want and have their dignity stepped on like doormats if they so choose to

I like how as Joonhyung is s-l-o-w-l-y putting the pieces together and realising he actually likes Bokjoo, even the lights outside are little hearts. Thanks for the hint, show XD

Bokjoo’s dad and uncle being her biggest fan is so adorable!

Catching up on Weightlifting Fairy to reset my mood after Reply 1988 and Chicago Typewriter. I really love the lighting and colours of this drama!

Just finished Chicago Typewriter, and while I’m fortunately not hit by bad withdrawal symptoms, I will definitely miss Yoo Jin-oh’s classy three-piece suits, so here’s an appreciation post.

    I LOVE three piece suits! Another reason I’m lovin’ Kim Young-kwang in Lookout.

      He’s just so tall and handsome in all those three-piece suits.

    Spoiler aheadI mean, Show, why did you have to drive that final stake through my heart and have them move out of Ssangmundong?? WHY?! I can get over the heartbreak of that one side of the love triangle but not this, never :'(

    I get ya, I felt the same when I finished watching it.

      I know I’ll get over it somehow but omg that feeling when a drama is so good it takes a piece of your heart with it when it ends :'(

    Lol. Nooooo, not dramatic, at all. 😛

    There, there. *pats your back* this too, shall pass.
    Have you watched the other two Reply series?

      Thank you :3 I am going to watch the behind the scenes, their Youth Over Flowers and Taxi episodes to try to ease myself out of this hangover

      Yes I’ve watched 1997 but not 1994! Did you watch it? What are your thoughts?

      1

        Good plan! I should watch them in Youth, too. I’ve seen some clips and it definitely looks entertaining and fun. They’re cuties!

        I did watch ’94. Loved it. But that was a given because the franchise just does its thing so well, y’know? Like, they’ve created such a niche format that just works. The Answer Me/Reply series are always full of heart and that’s really the winning point of all the shows. They also do a really good job at bringing out the best in pretty much every actor that’s involved with the show. For example, Go Ara was at the best you’ll ever see her in ’94 and the rest of the gang is the usual sweet, fun, and warm group of friends. You’ll love it! I’m sorry I didn’t give you any details. It’s been so long and I have a terrible memory, but I can guarantee that it’s full of heartwarming moments that’ll make you laugh and cry.

          Thank you! I’ve added it to my to-watch list (: And no worries, I just remember I loved 97 but I can’t remember why, it’s been so long 😡

            Haha, no worries! I’ve made that face once and was like, “wth” when it popped up as an angry face instead.

Came out of a weekend watching Reply 1988 with my mum (we\’re about halfway through) to find myself starting Chicago Typewriter. Guess who caught the Go Kyungpyo fever 🙈

Is a Kdrama a Kdrama if it doesn’t have a pretty rooftop place? ? In related news, catching up with my dramas after a couple of busy days \o/

    They make me wanna live in a rooftop house! Which I probably could because they’re most likely affordable, right? I’d pull a Bomi and install like 10 locks on my door though, because I also feel like they’re not all that safe.

      They’re probably cold, too 😡 But I feel like the fun stuff always happens at a rooftop! I love the rooftop bar the Fight My Way friends made.

By the way… has anyone\’s fan wall posts (with vids) been disappearing? I know I clicked \”edit\” on them and next thing I know the post+likes are still there, but with no text and video. It\’s odd.

    It happened to me as well but with photos. :/

      Ah ok I think I may write in to the DB team to let them know (unless someone else has reported the issue already!)

    Ah that is because the ‘edit’ feature is only for text for now. The supporting video/image/gif will disappear if you edit a post.

      Oh thank you! Weirdly my text vanished as well O.O I’ll keep an eye on it and wait for more replies, and maybe send an email to the DB team.

Ooh, I levelled up after all, I am Jang Geu-rae now (and I really need to watch Misaeng soon [I know, I’m super behind]). Thanks to the Beanies who gave me advice on my earlier post! ^^

Caught up with this week\’s Fight My Way, still like the main quartet (mostly) but I\’m not so sold on the shortcuts the writer is taking in making these second leads +JM\’s family downright unlikeable.

      Ahh thank you! I like hot cocoa too 😀 It’s too bad that where I stay (Singapore) is too hot to have it often.

        But it’s not too hot for tea pots to be in use? 😉 Hehe, it’s summer now for me here (Chicago), so I haven’t had hot cocoa in a little while…

    Lol @ the little pic–so cute! Aw pooey, it’s okay! I’ve been slacking on my currently airing dramas, so haven’t been participating in the recap threads, but I’m always here and there, so I get points that way, I guess. The more active you are on here, the faster you’ll level up and you’ll find yourself leveling up in the blink of an eye!

      Hehe thank you! I see (from your fanwall) that you’re watching Fight My Way too! I’m keeping up but not really commenting because Lollypip posts recaps so fast I haven’t even watched them when they get published ^^”

        Oh yes, I am! Although I’m behind, I’m loving Fight My Way (where can I get a Dong-man for myself? Ha, I guess it’s too late since I’m already an adult… but hey, it’s never to late to meet and make a new bff!). Haha, I can’t catch up with the recap posts, either, so we can just talk to each other about the eps! I hear that divorced anchor continues to be annoying, so I’m not looking forward to that…

          About the clingy ex: neither am I, tbh. Although I love the show I feel the writer is cutting corners by making every antagonistic character flat-out evil/ dislikeable so it’s easy to root for our leads. Just think the pest control sunbae, Hyeran, the intern girl, even Moo-bin.

          1
          1

            Oh noes, what happens to Moo-bin? He was so cute and harmless. Sigh. I’m glad Dong-man’s getting away from that pest control sunbae. Thank goodness for cute and likable leads because I just canNOT STAND childishly petty characters like the clingy ex and the pest control sunbae. To me, they’re worst than actual villains because it’s so damn frustrating.

    I say it’s better than the opposite. At the rate I’m watching dramas and commenting, School 2020 will be out before I get to around to watching School 2015 lol 😛

      I actually haven’t watched any of the School dramas yet 😮 But I think I’ll eventually get round to watching School 2013, I heard the bromance is of epic (though angsty) proportions!

        That’s the only one of them I’ve seen so far lol. I wonder if any site has the first ones? That’d be really interesting.
