dangermousieI put Alec Su's and Chae Rim's Warriors of Yang Clan aside after two eps, even though I loved it, because I was in cdrama overload at the time and because I couldn't find any subbed eps past ep 25 and this is a 36-ep drama. But the overload is gone and I found eps 26-36 on youtube (to download though keepvid. Though if anyone else knows anywhere else I can get it, please let me know) so on with the show!
And am now, on ep 3, wondering why on earth I ever stopped! This is an OTP designed for Mousie's heart expressly because basically they flirt through battling each other with swords and spears!
Seriously, you cannot tell me this isn't foreplay. Just look at them:
And this is how they look AFTER the fight.
For those who have no idea, btw, Warriors is pretty much a love story between Yang Si Lang, a member of a legendary fighting dynasty and possibly the unluckiest Yang brother ever (and that's quite a competition) and Pan Yu Yan, the rebellious daughter of the super-evil Prime Minister, who has it in for the Yangs. So yes, their families are sworn enemies ON TOP of the fact that he's the famous Fourth Brother who, as per legend, gets captured in battle against evil enemies who killed his family and gets amnesia, forgets who he is, gets a new identity and joins them. Can you say AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAANGST!!!! At least this one has a sort-of happy ending, unlike the misery fest that was Young Warriors, from which I am still scarred.
Anyway, enjoy the cuteness, OTP. The angst monster will come for you soon enough. It's funny, because normally I find Alec Su as attractive as a piece of toast, but he's RAWR here, with the long hair and the Yang family name, and the sword/spear/every-other-weapon-known-to-man skills. And Chae Rim usually is blandly OK with me but here I adore her.

Happy New Year, btw!!!

I guess he wasn't thinking clearly, seeing that his brain just got unscrambled. Ooooooh :(
Did they really shoot random foreigners though, if they were by themselves etc? *Note to self - do not timetravel too period China*
