Cutest poll ever. I'm serious! The choices (though humorous ) ring very very true... ;D. Not too sure how you figured out about my Yamapi-napping though!!

Completely unrelated... I just saw OotP and didn't like it at all... I recommended that you try it yesterday, but, um, I take back. LOL.

[dangermousie.livejournal.com]

Thanks! :)

And thanks re ootp warning.

Re: yamapi. I know because I share the same ambition :)

[magalamb.livejournal.com]

Hee! I watch comedies and tragedies through my fingers... I was so mortified during the latest ep of Papa to Musume no Nanokakan that I was covering my eyes, mortified...

dirt poor but still photogenic

... Tatta Hitotsu no Koi, yes?

Also, I started watching Coffee Prince, and I must say, it is SO CUTE! It's been too long since I watched a kdrama...

[dangermousie.livejournal.com]

Tatta Hitotsu no Koi, yes?

Yup. Loved those artful dirt smudges that assentuated Kame's cheekbones :)

[lesbiassparrow.livejournal.com]

I am all about handsome men running through the rain, and women screaming 'oppa!'

There can never be too much standing/running in the rain.* And having watched so many of these things I now shout 'oppa' on a regular basis just out of reflex.

*If kdramas did not insert this vital scene every 20 minutes they would only be half the length, which would be a scheduling problem.

[dangermousie.livejournal.com]

Exactly. Slomo sots of people soaked or freezing are crucial. Crucial :)

aaah. ♥ i wish you'd used checkboxes instead of radio buttons though. it was so hard to choose in some questions. :p

[dangermousie.livejournal.com]

Heeeee. But then I'd check every box for all of them :)

[meganbmoore.livejournal.com]

*amused*

Very much ditto on the checkboxes, though.

[dangermousie.livejournal.com]

But I want to make it hard. As hard as it is to tear your eyes from Angsty, wounded Song Il-Gook with a sword :)

[meganbmoore.livejournal.com]

actually, right now I'm busy watching Face to Fate and going "they did a quadruple take when they passed each other then she chased him down and pointed a sword at his throat...they must be OTP"

Lovin' it!

Favorite drama occupation (for hero or heroine)
What about kdrama must, hotel owner/restaurant owner/big company owner (or playboy heir to one). Who can naturally kick ass AND play the piano (usually not at the same time). This is for the hero, of course, the heroine is poor and will draw up love contract to date this hero for vague reasons.

This is my favourite stereotype but I voted Random White Collar, which I guess fits the stereotype but still, white collar worker is different from Stinking Rich Owner/Boss.

Angsty: I am in love with my half-brother who is dying of cancer but luckily I have amnesia so I will forget it all.
Such a happy ending. :(

I want love to be important to the story but not the only main thing there. Love is important but so is politics/war/trade/mystery/raising cows. When conducted by attractive specimens, that is.
*takes cracky poll too seriously*

I think my favourite thing is for a drama to be about love but the love of the couple to be like, just a frame of some sort of personal growth for the characters. Like in my favourite jdrama, Nodame Cantabile, the characters' love stories, their personal growth/betterment and the development of their musical skills are all interwined into this awesome mix that's very touching. It's not just about music OR love or about becoming who you want to be, it's all of that.

So even though I picked "love love love all the time!" option, it doesn't mean the drama shouldn't have other aspects.

Except, I did once tell a jdrama loving friend of mine (who's still not watched a single proper kdrama, shame on her!), after watching one episode of some fluffy but not entirely romantic jdrama, "It's like ..it has real plot. I don't think I can get into this." XD

This might be the reason I like Taiwanese dramas best. Cheesy, simplistic but with so much heart & occasionally impressively well-written and acted and even clever.

[dangermousie.livejournal.com]

I forgot rich person and realized that after I posted the poll :)

but not entirely romantic jdrama, "It's like ..it has real plot. I don't think I can get into this." XD


That's how I feel.

"His can of hair-spray"

I almost burst out laughing in the middle of a library when I read this possible answer.

[dangermousie.livejournal.com]

Come on, you know that with the hair some of these boys have, their hair-spray cans are always near and deadly.

[ameyadevi.livejournal.com]

hehee! love it. some were really hard to decide though. ahhh

[dangermousie.livejournal.com]

Heeee. But I asume good kind of hard :)

[kitkat-cat.livejournal.com]

ROFL! Brilliant way to end my day at work! Which turned out to be looooong and tiring!

I had to think about Intense and sword wielding vs super intense...i picked super intense in the end cos i figured that it would cover all aspects of intenseness...including the sword! :)

guh...i only need to think of a way to convince the BOYFRIEND to call me Gu-Gu, grow his hair with the pre-requisite silver streaks, hack off one of his arms, walk aroung hoiking a massive sword with a huge condor for a friend, and develop super-duper martial arts abilities...eee!!! what are the chances of me succeeding then!? :)

[dangermousie.livejournal.com]

LOL. Now I am fantasizing about Yang Guo and thus useless for the rest of the day...

[kitsune714.livejournal.com]

Love this poll! ♥

I only wish I could check more boxes. :D

[dangermousie.livejournal.com]

Heeee. But then it would be easy :)

[akathesia.livejournal.com]

Damn not being able to pick multiple options!

I want my heroines cheerful, spunky AND intelligent!

I also love my angsty romance heavy dramas but went with the crack comedy this time around (as I seem to be mainly watching this genre lately)

[dangermousie.livejournal.com]

LOL. But I knew if I had check boxes, everyone would just check all of them :)

[stardreemer.livejournal.com]

I can't answer this pole because there is not a "all of the above" option! :)

[dangermousie.livejournal.com]

LOL.

Bte, icon? *dies*

[village.livejournal.com]

The thing about this poll is that there are so many variables as to what I love about particular dramas. It's hard to choose just one and in fact, I did so with a deep sigh and a pout because I wanted to pick more. There's so many things that I adore and it's not just student romances but cracky ganster comdies and I like heroines who are smart and silly. Sigh. hee. Fun poll though.

[village.livejournal.com]

And I love Japanese, Taiwanes and Korean dramas equally. I've just been watching TW the most lately.

[dangermousie.livejournal.com]

Fun poll though.

Thanks :)

[allbloomedout.livejournal.com]

This was hard and very amusing!! <3

LOL @ Shhhh. I am trying to map out my plan to kidnap Yamapi and you are interfering with my work *cough* How did you know? XD

[dangermousie.livejournal.com]

LOL. It seems like a lot of people want Yamapi :)

[carviangli.livejournal.com]

this was super funny! But awww...I wanted to tick like all boxes and lol @ the yamapi kidnapping because I was planning on doing that...are you reading my mind?

[dangermousie.livejournal.com]

There seems to be a horde of Yamapi kidnappers as they are the option currently winning!

[carviangli.livejournal.com]

hehe...well if I can't have Yamapi I will just kidnap all the other JE boys I am sure I can fit them all in my purse :P

[dangermousie.livejournal.com]

They are definitely skinny enough!

[carviangli.livejournal.com]

I could definately fit all of NewS and Kat-tun AND Arashi for that matter:P

JE really likes starving there men o.0

[dangermousie.livejournal.com]

I've been to Japan and the food is not that expensive. You'd think JE would be able to afford providing three square meals a day. Though someone like Kame needs more like twelve a day, for a couple of months.

[carviangli.livejournal.com]

Lol...OMG have you seen some of the guys in Hana Kimi!! They are crazy thin(especially the guy who plays Nanba!)

...you would think a piece of food costs like $200...so thin...
