dangermousieOK, I was reading on soompi that Lee Jun Ki is losing weight for his upcoming drama Iljimae (about historical robber-type person). Whaaaa? How? Why? *flails unhappily* I mean, he was totally FINE in Time Between Dog and Wolf and unless he parked himself in an all-you-can-eat joint since then, does not need to lose any weight at all. WTF? I don't want him to turn into Korean Kame. Argh. WTF????
Speaking of historical robber-type people who look positively scrumptuous, I am still obsessed with Hong Gil Dong and in absence of subs for eps 7 and 8 have taken to haunting the Soompi thread for HGD. It so gets better with each ep, doesn't it?
I loved all the interactions between the Prince and Yi Nok in ep 6. He saved her from creepy creepy Lady Noh (it says some unflattering things that she is his subordinate).
Of course, as a result of everything in ep 6, Gil Dong is set on an even more of a collision course with the Prince, but that is not what I want to talk about. I adored the bit where GD asked YN to go to China with him. He was so vulnerable! Or when she fell asleep on his shoulder. Or YN being jealous of the fancy, well-educated EunChae who GD hung out with. I love them.
This drama is very good at balancing the funny and the angsty.
Some caps (from soompi):
I have not really started on any drama, because I am still under the total thrall of Legend and so can't really concentrate (nor want to). So instead I spent some time catching up on Bull-Fighting, which is very much my![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
lesbiassparrow(tm) drama: I don't care for most of the characters, and the emo amuses me, and so does the crack. It is very popcorn-enjoyable though.
I have progressed from utter loathing of the heroine (seriously, before, I had a few heroines I didn't care for, but I never loathed one before) to just plain not caring about her. I think this mellowing out is due to more sleep making me less cranky.
Still, I would not mind if she fell into a well and drowned so I amuse myself by making slash scenarios of the two male leads. The drama makes it awful easy:
Getting into each other's space:
Maybe the heroine is a yaoi fangirl?
Heh.
Friends approve:
'Don't leave me!'
Fangirls love boy/boy declarations of lurve:
I am pleased to learn Mob Enforcer Guy (my favorite character, the only one I actually like) gets an OTP of his own eventually, instead of just continuing to pine over useless heroine. Whoever his chick is, she can't be as bad as the heroine, so yay.
And I close with this adorable Legend gif. How could you not love them?
