MONSTAR

#watchhh it #a high school musical show that manages to satisfy both my commercial and indie sensibilities (yes i do realize that's a paradox) #four for you Show, four for you #also let's not forget the hero of the series that is Seung Gi-lite #also the ridiculously pretty people in the show who rock at instruments #too bad they're asses of the first degree #and then there's the apathetic second lead #but not when it involves the heroine #who happens to be a badass warrior who takes no bullshit from anyone #together they make beautiful music #eargasm all around #the end

MBC Mashups

How many of you had your hearts tickled at the Moon Embraces The Sun x Missing You mashup? Having seen both shows, it sure got me fangirlin' like mad, since when Missing You started I had this scenario in my head where Kim Yoo Jung would barge in on Han Jung Woo and his lady love. Keke.

Squeeing commence in 3, 2, 1...

Can We Get Married OST: Can't Go On My Own by Clazziquai (feat. Kim Jin Pyo)

More Dong Bi love! A sunny for song for my fav character, though its lyrics doesn't really suit any of the show's storylines... but oh well, it's Alex's and Horan's beautiful voice. No complains from me here. 

But you have our hearts, Dong Bi! 

Arang Appreciation Post.

"I've found you, Amnesiac."

So, hehe, this is what I've been up to. Having finished a grand total of ZERO kdramas and this year (I thought it was zero for all dramas, than I remembered I had belatedly finished ITWY), that fact didn't bother me as much as this: My brother is watching more kdramas than me.

My BROTHER. Yeah, I have yet to watch more than 5 eps of Nice Guy, but Chlo-Bro finished it all. Damn, is that messed up or what? That prompt me to do some catching up on my own (what? they say sibling rivalry is healthy). 

As a result, I'm all caught up with Can We Get Married in one day (technically possible if one does a lot of FFWD), and now halfway through Arang and The Magistrate (turns out you can still be productive with your PS, just play with it whenever Joo Wal's "parents" show up.)

And the result is this very short post (yeah, it's just an excuse for some pic dumping.)

SIGN OST: Good Person by Kim Jin Pyo (feat. Sook Hee) Translated Lyrics

Now here's a song I've been DYING to translate ever since I first heard it, but couldn't due to time constraints... *cough* (what that really means: I was following too many kdramas and translating too many SIWs to sit down and properly decipher translate a song).


Ran into some complications...
First I printed the wrong version of lyrics (not the drama one, the original), so asdfkgjlaskdj. But when I searched for the correct (i.e drama) version, I found that there were several versions of the hangul lyrics, imagine that! Sook Hee's lyrics were fine, but the rap parts! Oh my, Jin Pyo's lines are... asdfgkjllsasdk;jlkl. The hangul lyrics, when pronounced, sounds similar but have a TOTALLY DIFFERENT meaning. So the entire experience, I guess you could say, was punny (pun definitely not intended). And double bummer: Chinese translations that were based on the erroneous hangul version, so I couldn't rely on them too much for cross-checking.


But I really had fun though! I don't mind listening to this song over and over and over and over again, hee :)

Spoiler In Words: City Hunter Ep. 9

Boy, CH is such a breezy journey. Kind of shocking that we're already halfway through the series, because the adrenalin level's still high as if we've just started.

Oh, this episode? Daddy scores again (FYI to ppl who are keeping tabs, you know who you are *wink*).

Spoiler In Words: Miss Ripley Episode 8

Myeong Hun meets Hirayama and gives him 100 million Won, asking him never to bother Mi Ri again. Mi Ri lies and says that she only did that to earn money for her tuition fees, and thus averted the crisis.

Spoiler In Words: Baby-Faced Beauty Episode 16

In order to become a full-time employee, So Young carries the blame for hiding the the fact that she is color blind. Regarding this matter, Chief Baek says he'll take the full responsibility and resign. But So Young manages to find evidence of Yun Seo being a two-headed snake! (I don't mean that literally. I think)

Miss Ripley OST: Hwayobi's Glass

Glass - Hwayobi

Beautiful doesn't even begin to describe this song. And the lyrics? By the same person who did that heartbreaking song in Best Love, "Don't Forget Me" and also "That Woman", "That Man" for Secret Garden's OST. In short, this man has been solely responsible for the meaning to all my favorite songs.

Best Love OST: Big Mama Soul's Tears Of Love

I'm squirming in my seat as I translate this. NO ONE is dying on me, you hear me? I will live through these three days, considering I did not went loco during the SG craze hoping no harm will come upon Joo Won and Ra Im. Please let me look back at this drama with a smile!

Spoiler In Words: Can You Hear My Heart Episode 24

Oh noes I don't think I like where this is going... what happened to the bromance in the earlier epis? D:

Spoiler In Words: Best Love Ep. 14

Let's Talk About - Sunny Hill (feat. Zia)

Am SO in awe with BL's episodes lately. Before this it was just funny, and I found little heart in it but later episodes has proved me so, so wrong. This show  so can do both. And I reckon I like the "serious" bit infinitely more. And the fact that Dokko's fate hangs in the balance only makes my heart thump a frantic tattoo as I watch the show, gnawing my fingers off.

I'm with you so that my heart can "thump thump" again. 

Spoiler In Words: City Hunter Ep. 8

I'm always looking forward to my weekly installment of City Hunter; the great show notwithstanding, there's The Comments LOOL. Vikiers have such a sense of humor that always catches me off-guard, and if I happen to be in a cinema with this bunch, I don't think I can keep a straight face watching the show. Not to mention my eyes keep straying to the top rather than the bottom screen... (sorry subbers!)

If there such a thing as an aegyo song, this would be it. Of all the nonsensical sounds...

Na Na sees Yun Seong in what looks like him staying together with Se Hui. Her whole body cannot help but stiffens in shock, after which she left the scene. She is also reluctant to pick up his calls.

Spoiler In Words: Miss Ripley Episode 6

Mi Ri in All About Eve's Kim So Yeon mode! In AAE, I've always thought Young Mi's downfall was pursuing Jang Dong Gun even though she was at the top of her game, not to mention a lovely cameraman BF by her side. Also, it was purely out of greed and jealousy, not love (ﾒ￣ ￣)

The problem is, in AAE I DON't have to root for evil one, but in Ripley, can or will I be able to do that? Idk, maybe I'll end up rooting for the second girl instead. 'bout time too, secondary lead characters for woman tend to be nothing but bitchy nowadays.

This is so, SO unfair. WHY must the week that I'm having exams be the week where the mostest interesting stuff happens? *pouts*
