Love this drama! I find the heroine very refreshing

I have to agree with the music though, it's really not helping to set the mood, I've heard better melodies come out of my 1995 keyboard D:

Corona

LMH can do my hair anytime

Corona

I'm a sucker for dimples and..daaarn he does fit the "hot" checklist

(No, I don't really have a checklist ;)

Corona

I'm trying to rope in some friends to watch Personal Taste with me so I can have a proper excuse to watch some more LMH ;)

Corona

I think a "controversial" (Not controversial for me, but pretty controversial for some) subject as sexual orientation is quite difficult and maybe impossible to do. No person is the same but a movie or series often floats on stereotypes, because we understand, laugh and even identify with ...

Corona

First, welcome to the forum! Lot's of questions, not sure if I can answer them all ;) Anyway, if you know where to look you'll find some of the answers at least, or maybe check out some of the actor/actress posts around here. Rain's last movie was Ninja Assassin, but he's returning back to drama wit...

Corona

Ah.. lipbiting and that elusive dimple, dear lord

Corona

I don't think guys should pluck their eyebrows unless they have a unibrow

@Ethlenn Hahaha, you are sooo evil! ;)

Corona

Anything for Vogue ey? ;)

Corona

Thanks for the links! Even though I can't get enough of LMH and Personal Taste, I'm never a big fan of extensions for drama's. I'd like it to end as it's supposed to. This seems like a drama that may drag out some issues. Issues we're all dying to see resolved. Or worse, add something from the long ...

Corona

I'm so sorry Ethlenn! (I'm not ;)

And don't worry I'm sure behind all the make-up plaster he's still in there, somewhere!

Corona

Maybe the new movie adaption will bring back some manlyness, or else he'll be shipped to the army eventually... The place of er.. manly men?

Ah, well I don't mind as long as looking at his clothes don't make me go colourblind

Corona

I'd like to see him in more roles, complicated or not!

Thought it was finally time to update my avatar to this new 'obsession', (sorry Vic)

Corona

<3

This Banana milk CF with Lee Min Ho really cracks me up everytime I see it,his expressions hahaha:

The dance does resemble my reaction when a new episode of Personal Taste comes out ;) (okay not really, except in my head ;)

Corona

I think they must be all at Soompie, but the forum there makes me a bit dizzy

Corona

Oi, doesn;t Lee Min Ho deserve some more love for his performance in Personal Taste?

Ah well, just another excuse:

Corona

Ah yes, where would we be without Lee Min Ho? ;D

Corona

Okay, I'm officially addicted to this drama. I really enjoyed it till episode 6 and then *BAM* it gets an angst injection and the enjoyment has risen to totally awesome proportians!

Corona

See you in two years LJK! I do secretly wonder if he'll bulk up from his eh.. military adventure ;) And I'm wondering if that'll be a good or a bad thing

Ah I'm so shallow \o/

Corona

I love the styling of this drama. sometimes make overs in Korean drama's are more miss then hit, but it's mostly hit here!

Corona

I think perhaps he is referring to the elevator scene? I found that hilarious!

Corona

Just wanted to butt in and say you guys are awesome \o/

And having a thread like this with all the upcoming drama's is very handy

Corona

Looks to be a winner. The first episode started off a bit slow, but it cached up near the end. There is some wicked humour in it. Really had me laughing out loud!

Corona

Picture overload :) But I'm amazed at his range of facial expressions, just little changes in his mood are easily to see. That's what makes his role in Boys over Flowers so appealing (well beside his looks ;).

Corona

Thanks for that link Miga! It's nice to read about his first experiences as an actor, make me respect his role a bit more

Corona

I watched the first episode and I wasn't really impressed. There were some very "cringe" moments in it. They tried to intersperse the serious and the fun but it didn't work for me. I sometimes found it difficult to watch Hiro when he smiled. It looked so.. smarmy D:. I'm sorry Hiro! Hopefu...

Corona

Wish I could help out, but I don't have time nor the knowledge :o

Corona

Agreed! I'd hate to think what BBF would be without him ^^; He looks awesome in a tux, but that last picture akiko-chiko, those pants should be set on fire ;) *swoons* http://i135.photobucket.com/albums/q146/coronanl/1226632727638_1.jpg I've gotten so used to his curly hairdo, I find it strange seei...

Corona

It's not a sequel and from what I know the entire series is not actually set in modern day Korea, but the first episode is supposed to show that the hero character of Iljimae is present in every generation.

Corona

I didn't enjoy the more fusion style Sageuk that SBS did, even though LJK was in it. But I'm really curious about this one. The screenshots I've seen so far looked nice! Would love to see this drama getting the attention it deserves

Corona

Excellent recap and analysis, have you considered making a blog for this?

(not that I mind reading it here ;)

Corona

I'm not sure what you'd expect Arsenal, both of them are based on the manga, which so far has been followed extremely close by Meteor Garden, rather close by HYD and pretty close by KHYD. I don't see what the fuss is all about. If you'd expect a totally different story I think you'd have to watch an...

Commenting on the last episode:

Ah, no we we're talking about the original novel by Yasutaka Tsutsui, as far as I know it hasn't been translated yet! 2 other books have been translated quite recently though, depending on their succes who knows!

Corona

I think Nanase does pull a better face when mindreading then Matt Parkman ;)

Corona

Come on people, this series definitely deserves a lot more love then it's been given here so far, looks like most of the love sits in the subtitle thread with people being surprised at the awesomeness of the series ;) I would love to read the original novel by Tsutsui Yasutaka, he also wrote Toki o ...

Corona

I've always felt like HYD is a kind of timeless story, like Cinderella or a more similar character chemistry (should I compare..gasp!) Pride and Prejudice. What I mean to say is that it's a story that I don't mind seeing done again and again.

Corona

Bedoel je via de kabel? Voor zover ik weet bieden alleen Digitale pakket zenders enkele Aziatische zenders, maar het is niet echt veel soeps. Je moet dan bovendien nog extra betalen omdat het een speciaal extra pakket is. Ziggo biedt bijvoorbeeld een Chinees pakket aan met het kanaal Phoenix CNE Voo...

Corona

Hmm GiraGira heb ik nog niet geprobeerd, ik werd in ieder geval aangenaam verrast door Nanase Futatabi!

Ja TW drama's..die vallen een beetje onder de noemer "guilty pleasure" ^^;

Corona

Hmm, stilletjes hier, iedereen is zeker bezig met het schrijven van Sinterklaas gedichten en het maken van suprises ;)

Waar blijft mijn Matsumoto Jun suprise?!

Ik kijk op dit moment eigenlijk alleen maar Nanase Futatabi, voor de rest wacht ik wel de Koreaanse Hana Yori Dango af ^^

Corona

I just watched episode 7 and really enjoyed that one

Is it me or did they reduce the number of robotic bleeps-buzzes? Particular in the more serious moments. I don't remember hearing any "clicks" when Night blinked.

Corona

Is there anyway you could get Veoh to take them down, darn I hate impersonators.

Thanks a lot fellow countryman/woman *not*

Corona

Most American shows that were shortlived.. (not counting mini series) didn't want to be short lived ^^; Sad that Veronica Mars ended and cancelled Firefly.

I loved Buffy the vampire slayer, and currently like Lost, Heroes, Battlestar Galactica and Kyle XY

Corona

I agree, that Coffee prince scene was pretty heavy

Corona

Hmm I was quite positive after watching episode 1 and 2. But the mood is turning a bit sour after watching episode 3 and 4. Give us some steamy chemistry moments people.. and not just a gag reel. I will finish watching this series, if only for the eye candy and hoping for improvement. I seriously ho...

Corona

Having read the manga twice I believe that the adaptions made in the drama have benefitted the story in general and also made Soshi a better fleshed out character (no pun intended ;)

I actually find Riiko less annoying then in the manga ;)

Corona

Maybe I like what I can't have? ;) Anyway, bluntly said, this is just another source of hot looking chaps! It doesn't really matter what they originate from, but these dramas do specialize on giving you the "fangirl" fix I guess. I certainly wouldn't mind Orlando Bloom in a drama :wub: Or ...

Corona

rofl, no it's not just you, but I think "Wassup" is the last thing you'll hear from his mouth ;)

Corona

Coffee Prince is a new drama that should be up there in the list

Corona

Looks interesting ^^ Thanks for your review/report!

Corona

Haha Malay_tiger

, she fits right in ánd she's cute to boot!

I'd love to be surrounded by so many pretty guys!

Corona

I was beginning to think this thread had gone down the drain and couldn't be saved!

Here's the Takki - Orlando Bloom video

Found something small and nice on the site of the music composer (Yoshihiro Ike) of Nobuta wo Produce.

Check out the 3rd video! Brough a smile to my face

Corona

Mine was Strawberry on the shortcake, I wasn't really impressed though. A year later after I watched Kimi wa Petto I certainly was

Corona

Yes uh.. so who is it from?

Corona

Hmm, I'm curious now.. The synopsis sounds fun enough!

Corona

People and countries should learn form their past, if they gloss it over or pretend like it never happened, no one ever learns!

You know how easy it is for wars to happen.

Corona

I love his 'crooked' smile

Do all Taiwanese actors have their own (regularly updated!) blog?

Corona

Yeah the behind the scenes are indeed really fun to watch, and it seems everyone has alot of fun making the show!

Corona

China pretty much invented a whole genre by itself..the swordplay genre. Isn't that great? And with all genres you either like it or you don't. But I think the problem is that people often see that genre as all that encompasses chinese entertainment and they don't look beyond it. I don't think it's ...

It's (beta) subbed all the way. Check out http://www.s-projects.org I highly recommend this series. I rocks on all fronts :) The anime is as the anime is, it can't be topped by the drama imho.

1. Long vacation

IMO they tried to give us stereotype thugs, like I see on MTV, being tough, making trouble etc etc. It's what the media gives me and thus it's probably what Japan sees as the stereotype. God knows I've seen gazillions of ganster rap movies that my brother watches. That's the stereotype that I saw. N...

Corona

Misschien, ik weet het nog niet zeker, ticket prijs is aardig hmm..prijzig ^^;

Maar mijn moeder woont in Almelo dus verder zijn er niet echt belemmeringen.

Corona

Fijne kerst iedereen en moge het nieuwe jaar nog heel veel leuke nieuwe d(o)rama's brengen!

Corona

Ik volg op dit moment Nodame Cantabile, geweldig leuke serie

Corona

Ah no, it was in the 6th ep

I wonder how the real piano skills are of the actors

Corona

No I mean the "goons" that accompany the secretary (manager?) of Streseman

The german in general is pretty weird, I don't know what it sounds like to you?

Thanks! I thought why show only his face when you can scroll down for the rest!

Corona

For some reason the western men that speak german..they sound Dutch to me

Nice of you to research and clear it up ringo0_0, It proves that we shouldn't just blatantly believe something, just because someone says so

Corona

Er mag wel wat meer gezoend worden in drama's vind ik ;) Devil beside you style!

Op dit moment kijk ik (Jdrama) Long Love Letter, zeker een aanrader! Erg spannend en anders dan de gemiddelde drama, en met wat fijne romance sprinkeled on top.
Verder wacht ik natuurlijk op Hana Yori Dango 2!

Corona

I love this thread! Thanks for all the hot pictures, keep 'em coming! Now for some Tamaki Hiroshi, who's looking positively hot since Nodame Cantabile [img]http://i135.photobucket.com/albums/q146/coronanl/Asian/tam1.jpg[/img] [img]http://i135.photobucket.com/albums/q146/coronanl/Asian/tam2.jpg[/img]...
