How to become Yoon Yoon Jae - Getting into SIG fever!

I just have to post this! I enjoyed watching SNL. If I do channel surfing and see SNL, I'll definitely stop and finish a skit or two. That show never failed to give me good laughs. Now it landed into Korea's boobtube on cable (tvN).

With the popularity of Answer me 1997 / Reply 1997, which ended last this week and still have hang-over (just saw it with subs last night this morning), it also invaded SNL and it could not be more suitable for us to have a feast to see Seo In Guk on it!

Check out the skit below: How to become Yoon Yoon Jae. Its so funny! Its a BWAHAHAHAHA funny!

Many thanks to karenkristie!

I had a great day -- daebak day! Mixed emotions and a lot of laughs! But this one seals it! Goodbye Answer me 1997.

Episode 13 - Answer me 1997 is up with subs!

Its here finally! Thanks to our kdramafairies!

Gaksital - Some Good Things Never Last [SPOILER]

Yes its from  a Barbara Streistand's song, and Gaksital is like a lover to me, like most of the kdramas that I watch. But Gaksital had taken a big part of heart since June when I considered watching it after QIHM.

Tonight it will end. I am seeing bloodshed and tears from my eyes. Somebody will die! I fear for the ending, as I commented on one website, sometimes a drama can ruin the whole thing by a tiny bit of a scene. I hope that the ending will not be sloppy.  I want the ending to be as perfect as possible, swiftly executed.

Those shots kills me. I screamed "Kang-to, you can't kill Shunji!" Really you can't kill your best friend.  Sobs..sobs..sobs..

Its good to see a smiling Shunji again. That is what Kang-to remembers, the kindness of the then Shunji. There is still hope in Shunji's character, though we may not see it fully, but I am sure we will see redemption. I hope Shunji will not die. I hate it when drama kills all the baddies and sometimes the good ones too (the second lead usually) as if they don't know what to do, so lets just kill them.  I saw it in Moon/Sun that is why I hated that part. As for Kang-to, its also been a while since I see a genuine smile and I can see his dimples too! And if I may say this, I am really a sucker when it comes to dimples! Going back, I love the ring made from a wildflower. I wish I could get myself with HD copy of Gaksital episodes for the cinematography is just daebak! I will not talk about the romantic part between Kangto and Mokdan, for I didn't feel anything. And I blame you "Stairway Kiss" of Yoon-jae and Shi-won! He!

I didn't get to see the last part of this episode, for I have to come to work. I watched the 3 parts while choosing what to wear and ironing them! As for Rie, I know that she got nowhere to go, but still I like to see your character to have that final kick and sometimes its better to be with the one who loves you, and the sword contrary to what you said, can cover it all! Aaaak! hehe!

It ends tonight, I am bracing myself. I will watch it RAW even if I will only understand, a few worlds.  I was not that successful in AM1997 with this technique, Pausing the video when I think the dialogue is really important, and try to type it in Google's translator and have it translated! Is that cleaver a thing to do? For a moment it was.. until I am lost in translation. haha! In which I planned to resolve by seriously self studying Hanguel.

Its (episode 27)up and subbed in English over at kimchidramas.net and dramacrazy.net. Oh dramabeans posted the recaps too!

Subbed! - Gaksital E25 & Answer me 1997 E11

I just love Thursdays! And that is the same with the rest of the inhabitants (hehe) of UAE or maybe the whole Middle East. Its the last day of the work week!

Now this Thursday, I am loving it more for tonight I can watch Gaksital episode 25 and Answer me 1997 episode 11! The subs for Answer me 1997 were done faster nowadays! Our Kdrama fairies heard the demands of the Kdramaland citizens!

NO! I will not read the recaps on dramabeans. OK, I read just the headline. Of course the word 'good' will always be there. All of us who loves Gaksital and had been in Kdramaland for centuries knows that one drama, no matter how perfect the earlier episodes can be ruined by one tiny bit of a scene or an episode that you'll slash down one point in rating it a 10. And for Gaksital, I want to simply rate it as "DAEBAK" and that it will say it all, no need for explanations. For Answer me 1997, if it will just give the Yoon-Jae and Shi-won-they-lived-happily-ever-after ending,  I'll give it an "AWESOME" rating!

I hope I'll get both, as I am planning to do a month of drama strictly for weekend to focus on other things, mainly sleep, nail art, Bible study and my Hangeul lessons! After typing that, I might do a month long kdrama-less life.  Yikes! I just remember Song Joong Ki's new drama coming out after Gaksital, Nice Guy.

Answer Me 1997 - Episode 7 is subbed & a Little of Gaksital episode 23

As I searched for Gaksital episode 23 with English subs on my go to website for Kdramas, kimchidramas.net and dramacrazy.net, but I found Answer Me 1997 episode 7 with subs! yay! Though up to episode 10 was aired this week, it is still good to see it with subs!

But its not looking good for my Gaksital. :( Usually subs are available as soon as I wake up but now still nothing :( Looking into the scenes that I scanned last night, I am more eager to see it with subs! I actually cheated by reading the recaps and comments over at dramabeans.

Hahaha! Thought your smart ha?! They are smarter!

Subbed! - Gaksital Episode 21

[caption id="" align="aligncenter" width="300"] image from dramastyle.com[/caption]

With all the new KDramas that premiered this week, Faith, Arang and the Magistrate, and To the Beautiful You, I was worried that it will mess up with my drama, Gaksital. My meaning of "mess up" is it will delay the usual immediate uploading of subbed episode, i.e English! I  am still surprise of how fast they upload Gaksital raw and the morning I wake up, its up already with subs! yay! With The King 2 Hearts before, I have to wait for Saturday for both episodes to be subbed - a total bummer.

I thank you subbers, the fairies of the Kdramaland! By the way, you can watch it here. You can also read decent recaps and later on funny and insightful comments from avid readers like me in dramabeans!

Happy weekend!

Answer me 1997 - Subs Please!

Nostalgic. This is what the show offers.  After seeing 2 episodes (well because its the only episodes with subs, if not I will not be writing, thus my withdrawal from this drama).  After I watched CNBLUE's MTV Unplugged, I put in the Blue Storm DVD.  I stopped watching to let my roommate use the TV, which is by the way you TV screwed the first part of video, so I ended up replaying the beginning of the show. Going back, I've been reading some praises for this drama left and right. I was so cautious not to start with it till I see enough English subbed episodes, but I gave it a try.  Why? to refrain from watching Gaksital raw!  Even if I posted on Facebook, "I want it RAW", I stopped myself to fully enjoy Gaksital. This addiction is getting worse. Let me google for a drama patch.

I once said to my 6th grade classmate, that my grade school days are the things which I would like to bury, thus reminiscing those days were not good.  Its funny how she views me differently from the way I see myself back then. It haunted my highschool a bit and even through college. The bite of bitterness still surfaces, though already moved on. This show reminds me of those years, though it may not be as colorful as what this show showcases. The thinking of being wise and sure back then, is now just being naive.  Your true love is just a big crush now. Whoa! Saying those is like saying "I'm grown up now!" and "matured", or NOT! hehe!

To our English Subs Fairies (they should be called "fairies" seriously), I beg you to sub all episodes!

The King 2 Hearts Episode 7 and 8 is up with English Subs

Well I didn't find any episode 7 with subs on my usual go to websites (dramacrazy and kimchidramas) when it comes to my kdrama addiction, but google is there of course to help you. I found episode 7 with English subs at epdrama.com and also episode 8.  It is too slow for me so I ended up downloading it while I go to sleep.  Will watch it tonight while cutting out letters on styro (hope I will not get a cut).

Enjoy!

The Moon that Embraces the Sun Episode 18 - Download with English Sub

Enjoy!

The Moon that Embraces the Sun Episode 15 is up!
