1. Apparently, there are rumors that Rain is planning to make a drama again, called Four Seasons and co-starring Jeon Ji-Hyun (star of the Sassy Girl movie). Even better, it's by the director of Something Happened in Bali and screenwriter of A Love to Kill (two of my fave dramas), as well as MISA and Thank You.

Expect angst with that writer/director combo. We'll be lucky to get away with maiming and beatings in the streets.

But no angst on my side, as long as it happens.

2. In confirmed, non-rumory news, Kang Dong Won is making a fantasy movie! Jeon Wo Chi with Lim Soo Jung (MISA, Cyborg). Plot: In the film, Dong-won Kang plays main character Jeon Woo-chi. His character was born over 500 years ago, but became imprisoned in a portrait. To break free and walk the earth again he makes a pact to capture the “manpaseokjeok” (a musical instrument that gives magical powers), before rival Hwa-dam (Yun-seok Kim) is able to do so. Meanwhile, it seems Jeon Woo-chi is more of a lover than a hero and he becomes enraptured with In-kyeong Seo (Su-jeong Lim), a budding actress and possibly someone he loved many centuries ago.

3. There are also rumors that Song Il-Gook signed on to do another period epic drama. Yay, say I. Man was born to sit on a horse and wield a sword. And angst hotly while doing so. (Side note: it will never cease to amuse me that he married a lady judge. It's like a set-up for a drama! Seriously!)

4. Not rumors but delicious fact. Director of Coffee Prince has picked his next drama. Subject? Figure skaters. Yes, indeed. To be called Triple and to star Jeong Il-woo and Min Hyo-Rin. No idea who either of them are, and frankly, don't care! Kdrama deliciousness plus sequined deliciousness of figure skating (one of my fave things) combibed together? Can the world handle this much awesomeness? I guess we'll find out.

ETA: 5. How could I forget. Jang Hyuk (Thank You, Robbers) and Kim Ming Jun (the sexy rebel Sang-Baek from Damo, In-Soon is pretty etc) have been cast as leads in a drama about gamblers and the mob. YES. To be called Tazza. Female lead not cast yet.

Oh my god, I am gonna die anticipating Jeon Wo Chi, because wtf, Im Soo Jung AND Kang Dong Won? That's like, freaking dry ice in a box: it's so cool, it burns.

...wtf. And I haven't watched a Korean movie since like, Christmas. XD

:excited: The only bad thing that could happen with this movie is uber angst, and it doesn't seem like it'd have a lot.

Distract yourself with another drama until the pain goes away? I heard something lovely about a guy being branded in the face.

LOL.

Yes, Emperor of the Sea is most promising, beards notwithstanding. I think I will finish Jumong first, as I've been watching it on and off for months. They've promised me cages :)

Is that the one with the torture? After the sleepover?

YES. THE TORTURE. AND SHE THINKS IT'S HER OTP BUT REALLY IT'S SMUG POLICE DOG. AHHHHHHHHHH

And he went begging to his stepmother for her!!! And how she earlier told him she is terrified of getting cauhgt. Omg (the scene at night when she is scared of thunder and morning after with bike is...adorableness). It is going to get even better btw. Also Yeo Kyung is one of my fave heroines ever.

THE BEACH SCENE. And the dance lesson that ended with a dip!! And the morning after the storm, when he's doing pushups against the rock and starts counting "201, 202... " when he sees her. SO CUTE.

The beach scene was so perfect. And how he likes to pretend he didn't have too much fun when he totally did and is all 'let's do it again.' Heeee. So much adorableness. And when he holds her at night!

SO GOOD.

Also, when she made him strip at gun point!

In some ways, Wan reminds me of Gong Yoo's character in CP: both are laid-back and secure enough not to mind a bossy lady, without being weaklings themselves.

*CRYING ALL OVER SELF* SHE'S IN THE DARK EMPTY STREET AND HE'S THERE TO HELP WITH THE BIKE AND SHE'S CRYING BUT TRYING TO BE BRAVE AND THEN SHE TAKES A STEP FORWARD AND HE'S NOT THERE

ETA: have you finished 9 yet? Because the preview for 10 is the most awesome thing ever but I don't want to spoil you!

Also...how AWESOME is the bit in 6? 7? when she gets shot and he stares down Su Hyun with the gun because he went into hyper-protective overdrive? EEEEEEEEEEE!

Also, I want to be Yeo Kyung when I grow up. Except I am already grown up, alas.

Also, SACHIKO!

#1 is so cool!

Director of Coffee Prince has picked his next drama. She's a she. :) And I think they auditioned for the female lead part.

Neat! Didn't realize she was a lady.

She's petite and quite bubbly, with little eyes and apple cheeks. My guess is she looks so much younger than she is. :)

I bought English subbed Magic from a provider in the Philippines (Goks). Very good quality, and even got the OST too. Did a (spoilery) write-up & screencaps post about it here http://miss-dian.livejournal.com/124658.html#cutid1

So many happy news :) Thank you for sharing! Kang Dong Won and Im Soo Jung would be an interesting pair, I think. And I have a feeling Rain and Jun Ji Hyun will also be very good together. Yay!

Kang Dong won and Im Soo Jung?!? Awesome. I can't wait.

Wow, just when I wanted more Rain angst. I think your drama gods actually do exist.

Btw, the director of coffee prince was a woman. And for some reason that makes the drama so much better.
