Spies spies spies spies forever!

I watched the first 30 minutes of Will It Snow For Christmas and I fell in instant, ridiculous, obsessive love. I think combining the writing of Lee Kyung Hee and the directing of Choi Moon Suk is really the perfect combination - the way the childhood/countryside is portrayed is pure LKH (makes me think of Sangdo flashbacks) and the male lead will be, I can already tell, one of the patented LKH heroes - very driven and off-kilter in some permanent way. In the drama universe full of rich princes, I think LKH is inordinately drawn to poor protagonists (in Sang-Do, MiSa, and A Love to Kill, the heroes occupy a precarious at best place in the social order and in Thank You, the hero throws a lot of his initial superior position away) and this is another one such. I think that is where the PD comes in - in his Something Happened in Bali, what really stuck with me was the sort of baseline rage and helplessness experienced by poor characters - all the little humiliations they have to suffer - and you can certainly see it here. Anyway, I should stop comparing it to other dramas. It's excellent on its own merits. I think I will wait for WITHS2 subs from now on though, for better visual quality.

In other news, I watched IRIS ep 16 raw and SPIESSPIESSPIESFOREVER.

I can't put any caps from the scene that made me gibber outside the cut as spoilery so have a bit of sexy Hyun Joon instead.

















Poor Sunhwa, leaving...



You know, I love everything about this scene - I love that there are tears not just in his eyes but in his voice, I love that she is the one who initiates the hug and does it so naturally and instinctively (and without him having to give any explanation - though he does later), I love the fact that he responds slowly as if he can't believe it. I love that he won't stop touching her and that they cling to each other for dear life. I love love love.























































Oh yes. I don't even care what happens to them after, at least they got to have this.

Oh god.

I am actually sitting here trying not to get tears in my eyes.

I LOVE THEM SO MUCH.

Wolfie, you spoiled yourself????? :shock:

But yes, I was crying - it was ridiculous but I was. I think they are THE kdrama otp for me.

I KNOW. I CAN'T HELP IT. This drama is driving me to madness.

I am just grateful for the wiredbox subber - if I had to wait for weeks more for subs, I'd go nuts.

Ngl, I actually cried a little during that scene. It was just so perfect. I love that they barely had to say anything.

I just love that even after everything (that others did and that they did) their trust in each other is so absolute.

Did you download the first ep of Will it Snow? And if so, WHERE!!!! (..how?)

[dangermousie.livejournal.com]

Shouldn't it be on aja-aja.com?

(I just watched on viikii)

The Aja-Aja link requires a password. ;^;
Guess I'll do that too. >.>

[dangermousie.livejournal.com]

The passwords for all of them are listed on a separate page on the website - you can find them (I usually do).
