Musings of the Obsessive Kind

Had a long and exhausting day today and didn't do anything fannish except watching ep 5 of Operation Proposal, which continues to work for me ridiculously well. I am so invested in Baek Ho's quest, it's not even funny. I wonder if it's because he'd normally be a secondary guy, or because his chemistry with Yi Seul is so lovely, or because he's a flawed but very decent person.

Nah, it's because YSH looks at his leading lady with all his heart (and heartbreak of hopeless longing) in his eyes:






Oh, and because the drama gives me scenes of total perfection like this (she's drunk and crying about the wreck of his baseball dreams and all he is concerned about is not the wreck of his dreams but as to whether if he did succeed, would he have had a chance to win her heart).




Darlings! It doesn't hurt that I want Coach to go DIAF.

I haven't had a chance to watch today's ep of SUFBB yet (PLEASE DON'T SPOIL ME!!!) but as I am waiting for subs, have this delightful pic from the photoshoot Sung Joon and Jo Boa, SUFBB's OTP, did recently:



(You can find the rest on dramabeans)

Random tangential thought - in a minor way, Ji Hyuk/Soo Ah remind me a bit of my otp in Dream High, Hyemi/Jin Gook. I dumped the drama when it became clear it was going to become Sam Dong-centric and go SD/Hyemi instead (don't get me started), but for a while there, I shipped Hyemi/JG like crazy, what with the whole princess-fallen-on-hard-times and her street-kid black knight thing they had going on. And this is a little like this, only 10000x better.

It gave me this!




And this!






Have an adorable MV:



Also, I feel such a loathing for the secondary guy that I haven't felt in years. In part because the whole teacher/student thing is beyond skeezy but also because he's an utter bastard. He gives me rage fits whenever he's on-screen.

Not related, but if you are pining for Shut Up Flower Boy Band icons, the awesome timescout made a lot and they are wonderful.

Since I haven't yet been able to find subs for eps 7 and 8 of SUFFB, I have been catching up with Operation Proposal and am in the middle of ep 3 (four eps are out so far).





It's a sweet, wistful romance story full of what-ifs. It doesn't own my soul the way SUFFB does, but it is very good it what it does and has no pretensions of grandeur. Oh, and the chemistry and the relationship between the leads is beyond lovely.





I am desperately rooting for them to get together. I mean, how can I not when they have scenes like this:

OP is a remake of a jdrama, Proposal Daisakusen, about a man who gets a second chance to win the woman he's loved for years but never dared to confess to - he is allowed to travel into their past and attempt to change the outcome.

SO CUTE!!!!!!! SO DARLING AND SHIPPY!!!!!

I am in the middle of ep 1 and I have another obsession. I enjoyed the jdrama but I am finding this highly superior, mainly because I thought Yamapi and his leading lady had rather lackluster chemistry. But here, Yoo Seung Ho* and Park Eun Bin have gorgeous, delicate, swoony chemistry.

* I used to dislike him on principle, mainly due to his lunatic fangirls, but after Warrior Baek Dong Ho, where he stole the drama, and now this, it's time to admit, I have joined their throng (hopefully, the sane division, though).
