dangermousieHappy Ramadan and Rosh Hashana to those celebrating it on my flist!
Also, I've found one drama with Joe Cheng I'll be skipping: The Rose.
I can put up with a lot of WTF but incest is really not my bag (ahhhh, the Japanese mangas and their bizarro world).
I was thinking it might be something cute to watch and it has Joe and the girl who is going to be the lead in Hana Kimi.
And then I found out the plot.
Our heroine is pursued by two men. And one of them is her half brother (and he is played by JC). Okaaaaaaaaay. And they are both sort of percieved as viable (with kissing????) Okaaaaaay. Oh, and the other guy in question? He is also JC's half-brother (not related to the heroine though). And there might be a thing between the two guys too because JC is sort of bi and sort of attracted to him (or just acting out, who knows). There is certainly at least one boy-on-boy kiss.
OKAAAAAAY.
No.
I've finally found a dorama too weird for me.
Also, on a shallow note, oh my God, the hair. The hair!!!!

Definitely true. Never would have lived it down.
Btw, is it just me or are there certain bits in ISWAK where he sort of looks like an Asian version of Orlando?

Date: 2006-09-23 06:35 pm (UTC)Yes, we're on for Monday. Is the usual ok for you? If you let me decide, I'll always choose the same place. If you want something different, please feel free to choose somewhere else. :) 12:30?

Date: 2006-09-25 03:33 am (UTC)The funny thing is, Joe Cheng (who plays the long haired weirdo) is actually quite attractive in It Started with a Kiss and what I've seen in Magic Ring. But here, I agree he looks odd.
Here's he (for comparison purposes) un-uglified:
