What is Korean for 'hormone overload?'

[dangermousie]

I am not doing a proper Faith ep 3 post, because I watched it largely raw, and also because my torrents are crawling at the speed of an arthritic snail so I have no caps yet but I just wanted to say: !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I think the entirety of episode 3 was pretty much hurt/comfort heaven. Hurt/comfort nirvana. Pretty much every hurt/comfort fantasy I had times 11.

*swoon, roll in it*

Sure, it continues to be smart and gorgeous and I have just figured out that the sexy chief bad guy is the same actor who played the adrenalin junkie/mercenary Jackson in Swallow the Sun (I adored him there - he and Amy, the suicidal stripper, are arguably my favorite secondary OTP ever). And I think I totally ship the King and Queen, even if he has some growing up to do (the flashback - omo! explains so much! He was so sweet and open with her).

BUT!!!!

Seriously! Eun Soo and Young! And the chemistry! And the fainting in her arms! And refusing treatment because he feels so guilty she is stuck in the past because of him! And his being sick all over the place but still outsmarting bad guys! And her being so determined and fearless about treating him! And she tells him not to die! And all the mutual grabbing and skinship! And the way he freaked out when he saw her legs and quickly looked away! And his telling her that if she keeps talking about him having a deadly condition, he is going to stop her lips properly! (Please, please, lady, keep talking!) And seriously, the chemistry!

As I have no pictures from ep 3 yet, have this gorgeous Lee Min Ho pic from an ad:



Mmmmmm, Choi Young, you can faint into my arms or stop my lips with feverish yours any time.

Yep! My poor heart went through torture watching this ep and I nearly fainted in last 5mins of this ep
Jackson in STS, my fav guy there and here and every where too :-)

Ahhhh, Jackson! I loved him so much!!! I loved the hero, but kinda wanted a separate drama about Jackson. Mmmmm.

Yes, the five last minutes, where a lightbulb went on for me and I realized why he was refusing her treating him (except for the surgery which he couldn't help since he was unconscious). I saw his face when she was yelling that she just wished she was in her own home and he looked so guilty and self-loathing and I went 'could it be?' and then he confirmed it when he was telling her she should have left him to die etc. OMG - swoooooon and seriously hardcore. Dude, you don't have to die because you feel guilty! It would deprive the world of your hotness!

And she manages to give him aspirin! And when he keels over after she leaves!

and who is the little boy in min4 of this vid? the one who come to hug CY ;-)

[dangermousie.livejournal.com]

Brother? Son? Though CY is pretty young to have a kid that young. Hmmm.

The actor who played Jackson (yup, swoon) also played the friend in Friend, the blockbuster 2001 movie with Jang Dong Gun: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KjCbfRl2DQ4

Oooooh!

I think you should check these opening credits, particularly the second half! I think it's from the upcoming episodes (5,6,7), ES is already wearing the Goryeo garbs, if I understood it right CY's watching her through the branches (swoon!) and then grabbing her (it's raining outside, he puts the police shield behind her back and I think there is blood on his chin and neck):

OMG, you are right! I cannot wait!

I was hoping he would stop her lips properly...hihihi.
That scene was so hot.

I was laughing my head off when ES walked around in her short and shocked all the men. I think General Choi got a little jealous there. :)

I know, I kept chanting 'mention it again, dooooo ittttt!' Any time they are within 5 feet of each other, it's hotness central.

Yup, to a modern eye, they don't look like anything much, but seeing how much sexy general freaked out when he saw merely a bit above her ankle, they are kinda a big deal in 1400s. Heh. And he totally got jealous :P

Ack! I'm downloading episode 3 from drama wiki RIGHT NOW because of you!
I can't wait! I'm going to cry if this doesn't download in 5 hours because I'll be traveling for 14+ hours, grrr.

I need my fix of this show!!

[dangermousie.livejournal.com]

I need to have all the eps out now so I can binge.

I loved the way ES pushed her way into the middle of a group of warriors, hands on her hips, demanding that CY get some damn rest before he ruptures his wound again. I'd like to see more of her bossing him around. Lol.

More bonding time with ES and Noguk, please. Totally love her reactions in the carriage. Because, yes, time travel is definitely not possible. Ever. So a longass dream is what she's going to stick with. That's what I would do.

I'm actually interested in ES and JB's relationship as well.

Legs. Lol. Poor Dae Man. The warriors were hilarious in their reactions. Oh, yeah, jealous general in the building.

I kinda teared up when ES said all she wanted was to just go home and shower. And actually laughed when she said he wasn't even feeding her, on top of dragging her into a weird world.

Yes, CY stop her from talking with your mouth, please was what I said. Can we expect that in the future episodes? Thank you.

"Don't die."

*diiiiiiiiessss*

Yes, we need kissing! Come on, the woman needs compensation for being stuck in a place with no running water.

I loved how CY was all jealous.

I am pretty sure ES is going to boss him around a lot :P
