Drama Babble...

[dangermousie]

So, I know people on my flist were watching Jotei. How did it end? Spoil me! Please tell me the heroine and the hot mob boy hooked up! They had a baby and lived together but he died WTF!!!!!!!!!!! What is this, some sort of crime-life take on Ayashi No Ceres? BOOOOOO! Shota is simply too hot to die. Well, I guess that way she can be a happy happy madam with no bf to worry about but just her stable of ‘workers.’ Yikes. BOOO. I want the cheesy OTP back alive!

Also, I have a confession. I haven’t yet watched eps 13-15 of Why Why Love. I know it’s going to get heavy duty angst and I am a total wimp when it comes to this OTP, even though I know there is a happy ending. Very odd for me, but there it is. Sometimes, like with The Outsiders, I wimp out. I still haven’t seen ep 20 because I can’t deal.

I have been fighting a mad urge to watch Smile Again (with Lee Dong Gun) or Snow White/Taste Sweet Love (with Lee Wan) but no new dramas until I finish Kim Sam Soon. The more I think about KSS, the more I adore it. Though you know something odd? I think of any drama I’ve ever seen, the only one who took the story of ‘they loved each other and then she left’ and made it about the two still loving each other, and trying to work it out is Coffee Prince. Usually, once you leave for a long time, for selfish reasons, it’s curtains. See Pride or My Girl.

The little niece of Huyn Bin’s in the drama is the most adorable thing ever. And I love that KSS knows to talk about her when HB is feeling horrible. That always breaks through.

when she told him about the pregnancy, he was already dead, and she visits the grave site a year later, with their baby daughter.

Still looking like an airplane stewardess, but we've already discussed Jdrama fashion.

He was ALREADY dead when she told him? Wow.

Heh. Why does this twist not surprise me?

[thinking-lotus.livejournal.com]

yes ... I don't like that he died either. I also didn't like the part where he's sitting around in the chair staring at the ocean waiting to die, because it reminded me so much of my father in the same situation. And then it made me even sadder because I thought that perhaps Matsuda Shota is thinking of his own father. otoh, I think he was way too young to remember with that much detail.

the baby is really cute though!

That is depressing. But what happened to Matsuda Shota's father?

I was really put off by the first few episodes of MNIKSS (it was only my second drama ever, and my first Korean), but after about 3 episodes, it really started to click and I really enjoyed it, and episode 6 really won me over. Despite existing in the not-so-realistic world of kdrama, I find there is something very realistic about it, especially near the end.

Yeah, even I, with a lot of kdramas under my belt, was less than enthused by first few eps of MNIKSS. But now I quite like it.

I'm just watching KSS now and it's awesome! Which ep are you up to?
