Rants and Weekly Raves #42 (RAWR)

JoAnne: Please don't leave me talking to myself. Kakashi wanders away after a while and then I'm all alone. kakashi: Awwwww.... but please know, I'm always here. Even if you don't see me.   becca:*feeling appropriately guilty* That is sad. :( I'll try to RAWR more often so you won't be lonely. Shuk: As of this posting, I'm watching 1 SK drama, 4 Thai lakorns, and 2 Singaporean, one in English and one in Mandarin. So, really, I'm waving from left field. (I need to give you a different color. So ... there!)   Nabi: Okay, then I will jump in again!! And hopefully more than just once on Sunday evening this time... Lafer: How many times can I make a comeback? Oh yeah, I guess every time I have something new to add, like the kpop groups do. Jaehyus/S@ki6: Kpop groups don't really add much new, they just rework the same sound with different looks.  bcook: Stop taking my color S@ki ! I'm taking Hot Pink and that's done for all posts.  Easy...

Yoo Na's Street - Episode 23 (A ThugCap)

We left this at the (first) scissor-threat incident. Justice will be served, I am sure of it! Min-gyu needs to be taught a lesson, Chang-man thinks, and so do I. Oh yes, it's payback time. A very satisfactory episode. This is such a good show - I'd almost forgotten how much I like it. It is almost too good. While watching this, I caught myself wondering why they don't act that well in ever KDrama. Even the same actors don't act as well in other dramas .

You can only read this because you're alive. Yes. That's the message. Also, always keep your clothes on when in bed with a man! It's quite efficient birth control. It's a happy thing to live in a world with these two, though. As they gaze out over the town, one wonders:  Are they masters of their domain?

What gives, ladies? Is it hot where you are too? If I were ice cream, I'd have melted days ago. Can't say my Kdrama slump is over ... quite the opposite, I'm down to zero (Korean) shows now. Which makes rawring a bit... well, difficult. The floor is yours, JoAnne. I hope you find someone to join you. Those soliloquies are a bit sad :) They are. It's too bad, because I'm having a lot of fun lately and it would nice if some of you were too! becca: It's the weekend!!! Which means I have time to do some marathoning and talk dramas. Aw, I've missed RAWRing with you ladies. Nabi: The universe works in mysterious ways, ne? For some reason I started watching KDramas live again a few months ago, after at least a couple years of only ever starting shows that had already completed their runs. And suddenly, now Sensei is off the wagon entirely? I know I've never RAWRed before, and I'm still not actually watching most of the dramas in this list. But would it b...

Ah cute, touching, and quite satisfactory episode. He is going to die, isn't he? (Well, in fact, I know he isn't. I'm just trying to get some tension into this) That's my LIFE you're playing with, Kakashi!

My Kdrama slump continues. I'm starting to worry. It's seriously unhealthy not to watch any. You too?! I'm slumping hard. :( It's too bad you don't like the HS ones, because we've got some real contenders with School 2015 and Orange Marmalade . "WTF did I sign up for?! And where is my GUYLINER?! I'm nothing without my guyliner! I wanna go hoooooooooome!"

Yeah, yeah, it's cute. I won't say anything else anymore. Yep, no point in getting yourself all worked up.  Just look at our beloved boy right there. As if he weren't sunshine enough on his own...

I am drowning in puppies. There will be men, soon, right? I need at least ONE fantasy that doesn't make me feel like I should make a confession. You're describing my current problem with KDrama, JoAnne! Puppies just don't do it for me. Not one of them. I need them above 30 and post-army. Where are my guys?! And come on, Joo Sang-wook as weird-masked prosecutor doesn't count. DAMN, I want him in TEN goddamitcantheymakeithappenalready?! Jaehyus (formerly S@ki6): TEN was that good, eh? It's complicated .

Falling for Innocence - Episode 13 (This is Not a Recap)

Why is it so shocking that the guy you're falling for has your ex-fiance's heart???! I don't get that. Fuck this "oh, but I can't sure whether I truly love YOU" shit! Who cares?! This whole plot is so AAARRLJLGH constipated/contrived. And SORRY, there is no investment company in the world who would go to those length to bankrupt a company. WHY WOULD THEY?! Bottom line: this drama went from very bad to EXTREMELY BAD. Over and out. (Okay, the Kang Min-ho coupons were very cute) Yes, they were adorable. He is adorable. Every week, he's more adorable. His adorableness is in direct opposition to the horribleness of Gollum and this very unrealistic plot. Yes, I choose to argue that the business machinations are unrealistic, and I let slide the heart that somehow adds character traits and mannerisms to another human. Whatever! Look at me. There's me and coupons. It's not all bad.

CutieSoo is EEEEEEEVIL. Over and out (=shortest summary of any drama episode ever) He really is. It's very sad, in a way, for those of us who love CutieSoo. We even found a way to have sympathy for Aoki, remember? I guess it's good for him to get to play a different kind of character... sigh... Does Yoon Hyun Min rue the day he accepted a role that would test our love for him?
