OTP derby

[dangermousie]

So, year 2009 has been very good for me OTP-wise, providing many a drama OTP for me to swoon over.

But let's see how I did in the "happy ending for the OTP" stakes - do I go for the tragic ones that break my heart or fluffiness?



1. East of Eden, Dong Chul/Grace - TRAGIC. He dies.

2. East of Eden, Dong Wook/Ji Hyun - TRAGIC. They never get a chance to be together.

3. Boys Over Flowers, Yi Jung/Ga Eul - HAPPY. He comes back for her.

4. Boys Over Flowers - Ji Hoo/Jandi - TRAGIC. They are uncanon.

5. Smile, Hana/Bito - HAPPY. He gets out of prison and finds her.

6. Love Shuffle, Ojiro/Kairi - HAPPY. They are off to a war zone together to be awesome and hot and insane.

7. Love Shuffle, Kei/Airu - HAPPY. They finally get together.

8. Black & White, Zai Tian/Burger Girl - TRAGIC. You bet. (or alternatively for a secondary ship - Muhyul's Brother and his Quasi-Older-Sis in KOTW - TRAGIC too).

9. Black & White, Chen Lin/Zai Tian - HAPPY. They are really into each other and find out they are not siblings after all. I bet make-outs will ensue.

10. ToGetHer, Mars/Momo - HAPPY. They end up together.

11. Princess Ja Myung Go, Jamyung/Hodong - TRAGIC. They sort of kill each other via a mutual suicide pact.

12. Return of Iljimae, Iljimae/Dal Yi - TRAGIC. He is forced to watch her execution.

13. Queen Seon Deok, Deokman/Bidam - TRAGIC. He is executed and she dies.

14. Kingdom of the Winds, Yeon/Muhyul - TRAGIC. She dies in his arms.

15. IRIS, Hyun Joon/Seung Hee - TRAGIC. I can't even type it out.

16. City Hall, Jo Gook/Mirae - HAPPY. They get married.

17. Brilliant Legacy, Hwan/Eun Sung - HAPPY. They get together etc.

18. Cain & Abel, Cho In/Young Jin - HAPPY. Finally.

19. Tamra the Island, Park Kyu/Beo Jin - HAPPY. They end up together on Tamra.

20. Swallow the Sun, Soo Hyun/Jung Woo - HAPPY. Thank God.


Hmmm. 11/20 happy

D: You really are the angst queen, aren't you? :shot:

I think I can honestly say that this one makes me the most sad, and I didn't even watch it. (Or any of the others except for 19, but... >>)

Aw man, really? I feel kinda dismayed just reading about it! I don't think I could handle actually watching 9 tragic ending dramas. *g*

4. Boys Over Flowers - Ji Hoo/Jandi - TRAGIC. They are uncanon. LOL so true!!! they still bother me- I grieve more for their lack of reality/conclusion than I do for many an OTP who actually dies.I will only start to forgive TPTB once I see Kim Hyun Joong get the girl in another dram(NOT Kimi wa Petto)

6. Love Shuffle, Ojiro/Kairi - HAPPY. They are off to a war zone together to be awesome and hot and insane. YESSSS.

This sounds so terrible! But it makes me wanna watch it even more!

Ji Hoo/Jandi - TRAGIC. They are uncanon. I don't buy it since I think they were never meant to be together. Jandi Junpyo were meant to be together and thats what happens!

So Happy

I just think that Ji Hoo was never more then a friend of Jandi and JunPyo really loves her! Ji Hoo was more like a big brother...

Thanks for the list. I'm only for happy ending. Tragic endings bring me down for (at least)a week... Avoid them like the plague... which is tragic for I miss good stories...

By the way, you can finish Tamra on Viikii (the episodes are OK from episode 11)

I've decided I have a gigantic girlcrush on Sung Yuri, and when I poked through her dramawiki page Swallow the Sun came up, and naturally I ran to your lj to check your thoughts on it! (You're my go-to with kdramas, I always look through your tags to see if you've watched something or not!)

What's it like as a series? The summary seems a bit long-winded and all I got was Sung Yuri is beautiful and ends up with some guy also Lee Wan gets shafted? I really don't know what I should watch next, I'm halfway through the first episode of Hello! Miss but it hasn't grabbed me, I think I need something a bit meatier. *dithers*

You know how to crack me up dear!

East of Eden, Dong Wook/Ji Hyun - TRAGIC. They never get a chance to be together.

ek! I don't really care about these two. I haven't finished EoE yet but I am quite hating on Ji Hyun. Oh well...
