Ms. Writer Xu Yu Ting, you in my shitlist.

I am bummed, truly bummed out, guys.

As a shipper, I take great lengths to guard my heart. I need to know that my OTP are heading towards Happily Ever After, or at the very least, some form of it. That's about it. I am sooo easy to please. BUT YOU, Ms. Xu Yu Ting, not only did you make me lose interest in the OTP (well I'm happy Da Ren got his wish, but that's about it) YOU HAD TO KILL MY CAMEO OTP. How dare you. HOW DARE YOU.

Truly, I had thought that this would be a lighter version of the (self-inflicted) angst-ridden OTP. Instead of "ITWY spin-off: The No-Frustration Version", I got "ITWY spin-off: You Thought This Would Be Fluffy Happy Love Story. Well You Thought Wrong SUCKER BWAHAHAHAH" version. 

Ex-Boyfriend: Mayday's "Zhi Ming & Chun Jiao"

This is not a translation; just thought I'd touch on the OST for a bit, since this song is tied thematically to the show and plays a central part in the OTP's meeting: Mayday's Zhi Ming & Chun Jiao. Like I said before, Mayday was already fairly famous then, with this being the song that catapulted them to big-time fame beyond Taiwan. It was THE song to sing in KTVs (the chinese equivalent of noraebangs) and due to the simplicity in its meaning and breezy lyrics, it easily became the theme song for the 90's. So you can imagine why everyone in the show starts bursting into the song when they learn of the two leads' name. The name "Juliet" itself will not raise eyebrows, but Romeo and Juliet? Commence snerking and egging.

2012 Can't Come Fast Enough.

Ayee, I'm feeling this void ever since Secret Circle and Vamp Diaries had their mid-season finale last week. Why oh why do these 2 shows have to go on a break together? So cruel - can't the producers work out some schedule where I can still watch one when the other's on break?


What am I to do on my Supernatural Fridays now, sigh. 

Random thought: I know there's all this talk about them being dead ringers, but who thinks Chris Zylka's a better looking version of Twilight's resident werewolf Taylor Lautner? Jacob 2.0, if you will.

Stupid Sentimentality...

Tears are for the weak, boo.

I was cleaning up my Picasa web album this morning, getting rid of duplicate photos (how did that happen?) so that I'll never run out of space to upload new ones (this blog is picture crazy). That's when I found something that made me got all choked up:

Just had to pent here, because I don't have Twitter...

You know the drama gods are against you when all you have been doing for the past day is raping the refresh button because the videos just won't fricking load, and you resort to downloading a vid that shakes so much the uploader must be stoned when he recorded it. But that's just how much I love ITWY.

Why oh WHY must you be down on Monday of all days, internet connection?!!! 

Tough Times

Real life's sucky. That is all. 

If it were up to me, I'll be frolicking in dramaland forevah.

So, this blog and I had a talk. Things did not go well. Heated words were exchanged. 

The Woo-U pedia

The peace lovin' me is glad that despite the differences we may have in Dream High (read: SamGook) on who should get the girl, we can all agree on one thing:  "W" is for "Woo-U wooed my heart. Woot!" 

Sorry for the lame-ish alliteration. That's whatchu get whenever I get near the Milk Duo, they're THEBESTCUTESTCOUPLEOHMYGOD. Forgive me? And won't you join me? Milk is good for you.

Here's the biodata of the couple, plus quirky bits Wikipedia doesn't tell you. Everything else from their favorite food to the endearments given by fans. Geez, what a fan girl wouldn't do. 

Lee Min-jung in all her wedding splendor

For her upcoming show, Midas perhaps?

Nah - me thinks not, it's most likely for a CF or something. She updated photos of her in a strapless wedding gown on her minihompy on the 20th, eliciting many favorable comments from the netizens on how she looked in that wedding dress. 

What will our Binnie look like 20 years later?

He'll age gracefully, that's what. This is too cute not to share: it seems like Binnie's fans are having fun at the expense of two actors. Which veteran in the k-entertainment industry do you think they posted up? C'mon, use your imagination...

Miss A Visits Suzy On The Set Of DH

[Announcement: For next week's Episode 8's broadcast, it will be deferred to the following week. Thanks to 22 sane adults chasing after a ball. It's KBS2's turn to air the soccer match, you see.]


In my noob-ier days, I would have thought that an individual was coming to visit. But hmmph, now I know better, it would be Suzy's *three* team members.

I must say this kdrama-catching up week has been pure bliss for me, at first it was meh (didn't help that SG ended), but right now AT THIS MOMENT, it is bliss. Episode 14 of IADD is daebak, am so glad I didn't abandon thee, Show. Nearly did but then I would have missed Jin Goo's telling of his life story to wifey. O, I cried. How he humbled himself in front of the woman he loved. 

hellochloe's Trip To Taiwan (Part I)

Hello guys! It's been about a week since I last blogged and as I'm typing now, the sensation of my fingers on the keyboard feels kind of foreign. Anyway, how are my OTPs from SG, IADD, MP, Dream High and Sign (is there one?) doing? Good? Bad? So-so? Stagnant? 

Best SG Moment: The Stare Q_Q

Ahhhh my heart hurts like it has just been ran over by a bulldozer. Several times. But no words, please. Like how they're staring at each other...I too, could stare at these screencaps for hours. 


To think that the OTP's best scene involves no words and none physical contact whatsoever. If you'd tell me that yesterday, I'd say you were crazy. But now I believe. This tops whatever moment they had before, The Sit Ups, Bench Kiss, Cappuccino Kiss...all of them COMBINED can't even whole a candle to this. Perhaps because, for once BOTH of their feelings are poured in.

Sohn Ye Jin Works Out In Elegance

 Yup, you read that right. I never would have thought that the word 'exercise' could go hand-in-hand with 'elegant', but while the rest of us sweat like pigs when working out, she's practically shining in the pictures, so bright is her aura.

Is it due to TRX training? In case you are wondering, TRX suspension training is a form of resistance training, as you can see in the pictures, the rope-like thing is call a suspension trainer.

Thinking Back: K-pop and Me

Oooh~ SKKS's Micky Park Yoo-chun! and the Postman from Heaven!!

People who know me well know that in contrast to my in-depth (self-proclaimed) knowledge about kdramas, I'm totally clueless when it comes to the kpop scene (wait, are you saying TVXQ and DBSK is actually one and the same?)

Amanda Zhu's mushroom head is the real deal

What's up with this kinoko-head trend really? This style does not flatter 99.9% of the female population. I swear, lately all the weird hairstyles cropping up on tv is all really a grand conspiracy by hairstylists to make stars look uglier. And in turn makes us viewers look uglier too, 'cause there's bound to be some idiot who will follow the hairstyle they see on TV.  Sigh. The day this hairstyle becomes popular is the day I will shave my hair bald. Pinky promise. 


And the worst part is...

My Fav List: Mangas/ Manhwas

Have you ever find yourself in this scenario: You're following tons of dramas, but finding yourself not in love with any of the shows? Heh. Luckily for me, if dramaland fails me, I shall not fret, for I still have my mangas. Futhermore, many of the dramas nowadays are based on mangas, so what's better than to read the original material, right? 

Though I have to admit, I have not found any read-worthy mangas lately. So if you have any suggestions, please do tell me. Please note that I'm not into overly cute shoujo stuff and shounen mangas where the girl's boobs are as big as watermelons. I thank you in advance <(_ _)>

Top 10+1 mangas/manhwas I dig (in no particular order):

Ratings guide: ( Visual appeal + Storyline /  How much I enjoyed it )

*Mangas with explicit contents are marked ★

*Readability--Mangas I've read more than once and still lovin' it★

Mark That Makjang: Dramas You Love To Hate

Oh boy. I was looking for something cute and fluffy to watch (just like I always do), but little did I know I was in for a hell of a ride (the title says Please Marry Me! How misleading can it be?)


TV masochists around the world, you can test yourselves by watching this family drama (there ain't an ounce of family warmth so far).

One big happy family...NOT! 

Think the first 8 episodes of Smile, You x100000000 (you think Seo Jung In's family was bad? You ain't see nothing yet, buddy).
