Ok one year I hate it and the next year I don't. I watched it at first a LONG time ago. I was mad because of the ending. I watched it again ( because "addicted" pushes you right off into needing MORE BL DAMMIT) and felt like the ending honestly was the way it was so Saito did not have to do a sequel. see/ see? he is SO tricky. gets a lot of shots doing nothing romantic, a couple good buns shots and BAMM he has girlie fans screaming bl bl bl woo hooo and his regular fans saying, ah well he really got away with murder didn't he? Did you see what he didn't do ?? see/ see? HA he tricked em. ah well. this year I like it. :) hheheheheehhee

Kissasian also has it up. subbed. HD

I loved ending two. Because I think he has to start ALL over again and REALLY come to grips with his inner lover. neener neener neeener neener. and YES that teaser was SUPERB!!! I also want a season two modern, based on ending 2. I am SO bad right???

It kind of came off a little on the cheap side to me too, but so far I have enjoyed the backstories. I think it takes some dramas a few episodes to find their pace. It is a small cast so they will get intimate soon. I actually prefer the smaller casts because that usually equates more screen time for my favorite actors / actresses. I have not given up on it. I also don't think the Chinese actors act poorly, but I really think their habit of that CRAPPY dubbing makes it all seem worse. Bad dubbing can ruin an otherwise delicious show. :( I wanted to see this one called ran something, the dubbing was so uber poorly done it was impossible to watch without getting fuming mad. I don't know how many episodes you caught, but if it mattered, try it again and start at episode 10, see if it settled for you. If it didn't ah well. Not every single drama is loved by everyone. as impossible as it is to believe there are still some people who have not seen Nirvana in Fire. But thats ok, I watched it enough for every one. HAHAHA

Viki has so many projects ongoing. MAN i am super glad they do all that subbing but they have to be under huge pressure all the time, especially when a whole crop of decent dramas are recently out. Poor subbers :(

I have seen episode one of DoTS. I am enjoying it. I waited a long time for Song Joong Ki to get released from the military!! I was also a tremendous fan of his innocent man. I like the males cast in that drama and their chemistry so far. Not too sure how I am going to feel about the female because i don't know how stupid they will get with the normal shenanigans they make women do when they are noted to "clash" in the synopsis. Sometimes they go way too far with that crap. I have bookmarked but not started the come back series and I have just recently heard of the Kim Woo Bin and Suzy drama. I try to give anything Song Jae rim is in an extra look over because it is SJR!! of course!!. I think recently I have taken a turn towards marathoning dramas as opposed to trying to do them weekly.

Ok at episode three, this is so CUTE. I am really enjoying its' playfulness. I have to admit the CGI is super cheesy so far, but if you can deal with that, its a fun series with a lot of potential. I am already worried about love triangles and sacrifices... *gets the tissues ready*

I feel like idols acting is just fan service until they get really good, so I am happy to play their little games. I have not seen too many dramas or movies where the lil idols did so badly that you just wanted to hide them under the sofa or anything. But, being an older person I like to see effort and prolly give huge chances. I also feel that the way the industry works in korea anyhow lends itself to the idols not being too camera shy, they make MV's after all. They seem to start the idols out as cold persons or as the bad guys, that seems easier. every one knows what mad looks like and frozen is pretty easy too. hahahahahah. Also being the 'goofy little brother" is a favorite.
DO playing in it's ok thats love, that was some seriously good stuff there.
Babies and Idols are both allowed to survive because of their cuteness. hahahaha
For some reason it all reminds me of Eddie Murphy trying to sing ( he tried to release an album. or maybe it was will smith) It did not go well. So it seems it is harder to make actors sing than singers act :)

HUGS!!!!

OK i wanted to stand up and say " hi, I am peacewon and I am a drama addict" LOLOL You nailed EVERYTHING. I was like looking for the camera cause I knew you were filming me. I had a semi slump after I watched life is beautiful. ( 5 times) and I just had a horrific time with it after nirvana in fire ( ok I wont ever confess how many times I rewatched everysingle second of everysingle episode) and had the worst slump ever. I never HAD slumps when I had my drama buddy. I swear I am taking an ad out in the paper for a new drama buddy, or at least posting on craigslist. I have been rattling around since BEFORE christmas wondering what the hell happened to me after NIF. I had just changed over to Chinese dramas too. i LOVE wuxia!!! I hadn't even watch 500 like i had of korean and BAMM nif kidnapped me. I did not KNOW i wasn't supposed to put them on 24 hour repeat for five months. NOW you tell me. hahahahahahah
I think I am finally better. I have been stuffing any and all interesting dramas from anywhere as long as I get the feels watching them.

this article!! HOW lovely. thank you. really!!

OH! whew, I was like NOO its all out war!!! but its not!! MAN i do not understand how they can show any number of women being raped or blood and guts everywhere but you have two guys kissing and the world is going to end? REALLY????

Kissasian also has it up with subs in HD.

One of the nicest movies I have seen in a REALLY long time. perfectly funny and bring tissues. you cannot decide whether to laugh, cry or both at the same time. XD

that was a shocker but OMG how CUTE right? I just screamed it was SO awesome sauce.

Happy birthday!!!!

did they go down at viki and you tube?

the gay genre is not at all the BL genre.
quoting from wiki about the BL genre!! "While yaoi has become an umbrella term in the West for women's manga or Japanese-influenced comics with male-male relationships, and it is the term preferentially used by American manga publishers for works of this kind, Japan uses the term yaoi to denote dōjinshi and works that focus on sex scenes. In both usages, yaoi / Boy's Love excludes gei comi (bara), a genre which also depicts gay male sexual relationships but is written for and mostly by gay men." end quote.
I feel that the BL yaoi side is so much more about the men being adorable ( we are loving seeing them do the hugging and etc but what we REALLY want is one of them!!) So it all boils down to our very own delicious selfish fantasies. fan service plays off of this in a HUGE way. Don't you find this is very different in your mind and heart from a hardcore gay movie? I mean if you don't LOL it could all just be me!!! LOL hahahahahhaa.

IT IS SOO GOOOD!!!!

there are tons of fan meets from the cast posted on youtube that are VERY cute. for a temporary fix :)

OMG i feel a rant coming on!!!!
Eh they still think they can control what is shown. LMAO what a bunch of NOOBS.
And yeah some people have NO idea what BL or Yaoi genre is and just label it gay. My how their ignorance shows. BL and yaoi have nothing whatsoever to do with any thing gay. if they could use google.. they could have at least looked it up.
ok that was me being a snotty brat. Honestly, they edited out the bed scenes, anything sexual. apparently it was VERY racy. You can buy the dvd's in Taiwan I am hearing from the fan base and can also access season 2 from there.
Who knows what the heck people are thinking when they try to control the media. History has shown a BILLION billion billion times you cannot cut people off from something if they really want it. Embrace it like the Japanese have done and make zillions of dollars off the fans. It's acting for gosh sakes. and not even doing harmful things to women which no one even edits out. SHEESH.
