I just went and read translations for scenes in ep 15 of Snow Queen (the show ends on 16) and frell. Frell. I am crying just reading them. Dammit. Especially the bit where she says she doesn't want to die because she doesn't want to leave him alone again. Frell. Yes, yes, yes so right. Because he is horribly isolated and dwelling and guilt and I am getting A Love to Kill feeling only worse, because there at least they decided they couldn't be together: the obstacle was in themselves.

SQ, how can you be sooooo good?

I demand a happy ending!

Barring that, because it's a kdrama and I am a realist, I demand an official DVD with subs :D



My favorite shots. I love pictures of people's backs:



And I love double exposure shots like this:



Oh my God, he is gorgeous. It's funny, I thought he was cute in Millionaire's First Love and what I've seen of My Name is Kim Sam Soon, but somehow here, he is just...guuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuh:





Back-carrying! Yay! Kdramas rock:



I have a huge fixation on hands, so here are Tae-Woong's hands. Bonus points for long sleeves, and bonus points for doing cool, genius-level math! Weeeeee!



OK, fine. If she dies, can he go on and lead a happy life anyway? Ala Millionaire's First Love? Please? Kthanksbye.

It's All. Your. Fault.

For getting me hooked on what looks like yet another 'and they lived happily ever after by freezing in the snow/joint suicide/poetic death' kdrama :D

But I love it!

I know!!! I read this yesterday too.. ** sniff ** But I think there is a good chance of "he lived a happy fulfilled life everafter because the LOVE changed him". I still love this. :D

"he lived a happy fulfilled life everafter because the LOVE changed him"

I'll be totally fine with that.

Btw, found these gifs here and it about turned me into goo. I am so watching all subbed eps this week. Every other show is going on hold:

Awwwwwww! Thank you!!!

I think this is why I looooove Tae Woong - he is like a kid inside, really clean and has an amazing capacity for being happy. I would totally wouch that he will be happy, otherwise all the clues they gave us, of "building of one's future" and all the rest will be useless. If he dies, the whole drama will take a different meaning. I rather guess his fall is some dream-thing. I could be wrong, of course, I am forever optimist.

I can't wait when you and Tarja reach episodes 7 and 8. They are TO DIE for. I want to read what you say about it all. :D

amazing capacity for being happy.

And being unhappy. You are right, he really is like a kid: he maintains this startling immediacy of emotions that most of us lose really early on. Maybe that is why his losses hit him so hard, but it also gives him this purity.

But then, he is a grown-up too and...eeeeeeee.

I better stop before I lose coherency.

And yeah, can't wait to watch more!

I very much suspected it would end unhappily and would have major angst in it , but GUH! the looks and the relationship between B-R and T-W make it all worthwile (and I have only seen a little over 5 episodes at this point). There's also the prelude in Ep.1 that doesn't suggest T-W will lead that happy a life after Bo-Ra dies :P.

IIRC, the final episode is going to be aired tonight, so the discussion boads should be soon full of news on it's endng :).

But I'm definitely loving this dorama however it ends and will buy the DVD as soon as an English subtitled version is available.

Yeah, the prelude makes me nervous. Booo. I demand my happy ending!

But then, even if not, only Silence was too angsty for me to really watch fully, and I do plan to finish it, and importantly, protagonists didn't get to spend any time together at all in that one, or almost none.

And I bring you this pic from soompi *dies again*

They are so my newest OTP.

EEEEEE! Those pictures are lovely!!!! I can't wait to see more episodes!

One of my main beefs against Silence was the miniscule time that ShenShen and WeiYi got to be together without major angsting.

Even thougjh I complained about how unbearable it was throughout the series, I'm now thinking that i might actually buy it on DVD if an English subbed version ever becomes available...

I just bought mine, here, with subs:

But yeah, I would have been fine with Wei Yi dying if only he could have had an appreciable amount of happiness with Shen Shen first.

That seller seems to have several copies of the DVD set available, so I think I'll wait until you get yours before buying it so that you can tell me whether the subs and the dvd set in general are any good :).
