I am back in the land of the living...

I am beginning to recover from an awful awful stomach bug I picked up somewhere. Eating is still not an activity I want to engage in, but tea tastes nice. Mr. Mousie has been an angel - taking care of Baby Mousie, making me toast (which I can't eat yet. Advice - worst way to lose a few pounds, ever, is to get a stomach bug) and tea.
Luckily for my "I have barely gotten out of bed all day" self, I have Shut Up: Flower Boy Band waiting to entertain me. All about high school wannabe rockers, this is one drama that is ridiculously entertaining, has attitude, and makes me think of a Boy Love manga, only minus the BL as it is a Korean drama (there is a heroine in this, and she's OK, but honestly, they might as well saved themselves the trouble). Have a MV:
Lee Min Ki cameos in this and, I swear, the man has a portrait in the attic somewhere. He got me to thinking who else I'd cast in my own rocker drama. I came up with:

and

Too bad No Win Woo is prepping for Full House 2 instead (have you seen that horrifying hair he's sporting for it?) and Kim Jae Wook is doing his military service.
Also, What's Up has almost finished its run and I can't wait to binge (I put it aside ages ago, because I thought it would be better watched in one go). If Shut Up is Dream High's older brother, who raided their Mom's make-up cabinet to sneak out to raves, What's Up is if Dream High and Glee had a kid, and then that kid cut off all his hair and went in for breaking and entering.

He isn't that old, is he? Most of the 20-something k-drama actors these days could pass for high schoolers.
These flower shows aren't really my thing (saw misterX refer to Moon/Sun as the Flower variation on sageuk) but I saw clips of his cameo on DCgall and he's excellent. Another actor who needs to lead his own k-drama soon.

Hope you feel better!

Date: 2012-02-05 05:53 pm (UTC)oh god if they put kim jae wook in eyeliner, and put a guitar in his head (esp if they had him grow out his hair) i would probably pass out or something. he's already absurdly pretty. ugh such a loss that he's in military service now. and Rain too ;_; raiiiiiiin.

Date: 2012-02-06 03:03 pm (UTC)I like your idea of NMW and KJW in a drama together !
PS: Sorry offtopic but do you, like me, think that if NO MIN WOO was not as skinny -still he has put on some weight since he shed his rocker image- he would have a little big behind ? I am telling you that because, while I was watching MGIAG, I noticed that when I viewed him from the side his butt sticked out a little, what is very rare among korean males.
