Tree of Heaven incoherency
Mar. 10th, 2007 07:19 pmNo, I haven't seen Hanadan yet. Why? Because it would mean stopping Tree of Heaven. Actually, I had to stop it for a bit to calm down, ergo this post :)
Oh.
My.
GOD!!!!
AAAAAA!
Kdramas, what do you do to me?
You have made me fall for a MOBSTER.
MOBSTER.
He is totally some kind of a mobster, and I am a sick, sick girl because the sight of him in that super-tailored black suit, black shoes, black shirt, black coat, buzz-cut, small earring and intense look in his eyes. Surrounded by a whole bunch of mob-looking black suited guys in a small alley? Makes me SWOON.
SWOON.
SWOON.
Did I mention the six-pack shown earlier?
Ahem.
Seriously.
This drama is SO good to me.
Because he came back two years later, and he won't reveal himself to her but he is watching over her!
OMG OMG OMG.
I love that now she is a grown-up woman and she knows what she wants and what she wants is YS but of course she doesn't know where he is. But OMG, when she thinks she sees him on the street (and she does) and even though she is in the middle of a tour she runs after him and he keeps walking faster and faster so she runs and they are in this giant metro station and OMG when she finally sees him as she is on an escalator and he is in a glass elevator and they lock eyes? OMG.
I love how he both wants her to see him (because of course he is still madly in love with her) and doesn't (because he was hurt so badly and because now being 'more together' in the head, he doesn't want to cause her trouble). He is so conflicted. Even though he is so full of resolution not to let her see him, I think if she pushed, he'd cave like a house of cars, because he just loves her too much.
And OMG, the stuff with the locker! When he knows where her locker is, and he (as the hotel guest of the super special expensive guest room for which she is coordinating) leaves her a note that she forgot her key, and she opens, and one day there is this awesome stuffed animal (seriously, that is the cutest animal ever. The thought of Yoon-Suh, who is totally macho-looking-mobster type picking it up in a store makes me incoherent with glee). And next day there is this awesome white winter coat.
I love.
And I love how she is in his room and she finds a sketchbook and the graveyard to which they went together is drawn (including the snowmen they made) and she is wondering but it would be too fantastical so she dismisses it.
And OMG, he knows she had no dinner, so he pretends to be brusque and arrange for super-fancy dinner service (letting her pick what to eat, eeee) and then when she shows up, he calls her and tells her to eat it for him.
EEEE!
The way she eats is adorable. So like a starving kitten. EEEE.
And then he comes in and she is asleep (she fell asleep waiting for him. Btw, I love how she hasn't seen his face yet) and OMG OMG OMG!
alexandral made an awesome picspam of this scene!
He just sits there looking at her!!!!!
And he takes his hand and lightly traces the contours of her face without touching her so as not to wake her. And his hands are shaking.
OMG OMG!
All the while looking at her with those intense eyes.
And then he pulls his hands back and you see he has to physically clench his hands together because he wants to reach out and touch her so much.
And he tells her even though he can't be with her, he'll take care of her forever.
And he tells her not to cry, as he is crying.
OMG OMG OMG OMG.
Did I mention that creepy evil Maya got her clutches on Hena again? And Maya is a hostess in a sleazy club and some drunken guy runs after Hena, and she is running terrified, when two really burly guys step out of an alley and grab him. Yes! It's Yoon-Suh's underlings.
YES.
I LOVE THIS DRAMA.
LOVE IT LOVE IT LOVE IT.
I now must see everything Lee Wan has ever been in.
SERIOUSLY.
alexandral is right, btw. Somehow, despite all the angst, it doesn't feel depressing. Maybe because it's so beautiful and moves so fast and is so passionate.
And I bring you
Oh.
My.
GOD!!!!
