1.  Yeah, that getaway was totally equipped for teh sex and JP and JD COMPLETELY overlook the romantic bed in favor of stargazing and then later, foot soaks.  I KID YOU NOT. Teenagers have forgone sex in favor of soaking their feet. I expect soon we'll be seeing purple dinosaurs walking about in the background seeing as this is show is obviously taking place in fantasy!Korea, where up is down and left is right and teenagers seem to be incapable of being horny. IT'S THE ONLY EXPLANATION. If this were American television, someone would have gotten pregnant by now.


2. And JUN PYO. Okay so we didn't get to see him grovel like the dog he was (DAMMIT!!), but OOOOH he told her he loved her. And also, that story about finding out his dad's secretary was the one sending him birthday presents was just heartbreaking. DON'T EVEN GET ME STARTED ON THE PART ABOUT THE STARGAZING OR I'LL CRY. God, I'm so ridiculously easy. He treated her so horribly for all that time and the second I find out how big his daddy issues are I'm all, YOU CAN CRY ON MY HEAVING BOSOM ANYTIME!

3. Seriously guys, that lady who plays Darth Mama has such an extreme presence. Like a split second before I saw the entourage and got blinded by the glare coming off of Darth Mama's GINORMOUS diamond necklace,  I said to myself, I smell evil in the air. She's definitely my favorite version of the evil mother.

AND OH MAN. Mama Evil is in total fear of Ji Hoo's grandpa.That scene in the restaurant was like watching an exorcism, which you know,  isn't so far off the mark. I half expected grandpa to whip out a bottle of holy water and start yelling, DEMON BEGONE! You can't understand my disappointment when it didn't happen. I bet ten bucks that she would have at least sizzled a little.

That whole interaction just made me cry my eyes out laughing. God did I LOL when he said to her,  do I need to call you Chairwoman Kang now? Because it was in such a condescending tone that he might as well  have said, AWWW WE'LL AREN'T YOU A BIG GIRL!

Harabuji for the win!

4. I'm not gonna comment on Ga Eul/Yi Jung thing because I'm pretty bored with them lately, but I will say one thing. I get that they want us to think Yi Jung is a player, but why is it everytime we see him bringing girls back to his house there are always two of them. I'm honestly expecting to see a "I heart threesomes." bumper-sticker on the back of his car.

I get it, Yi Jung. You like teh bitches. How could I forget with the constant stream of girls, the phallic cars, the snazzy suits, the greasy hair and let's not forget your five second kill which STILL makes me giggle inappropriately (OH COME ON?! That just has to be a bad translation. I get what they meant with that, but every time I think about it my automatic reaction is, YOU CAN GET HELP FOR THAT NOWADAYS.)

Also, his woe has totally ruined my love for  instrumental music. Every time I hear a piano of sorrow or a guitar of endless man!pain playing, I can't help thinking that somewhere out there Yi Jung is sitting in the dark, shedding one lone tear. Thank you for that, BOF.

5. Oh GOD GUYS! That scene at the zoo? I don't even like little kids that much and my ovaries still exploded.


All in all I thought it was a pretty fun episode. It's still too heavy on the JH/JD interaction for my tastes, but I guess that's what happens when you have the president of the Ji Hoo fanclub writing the script.

Did you see how pleased JD was with the bed, and they were stargazing, and then SUDDENLY MORNING! They totally skipped over the sleeping part. So I'm willing to bet something went down. I mean, he just old her he loved her, for God's sakes! In that situation I'd totally be like, "Take me now, super hot rich boyfriend!"

I think Min Ho has that effect on people....

Oh evil mom, she's so evil. I totally love her for it. I still like Taiwanese evil mom, but for different reasons; she's like the epitome of frigid. And yes, grandpa is AWESOME.

I'm honestly expecting to see a "I heart threesomes." bumper-sticker on the back of his car.

Hehehehehehe!! If only Jun Pyo/Jan Di/Ji Hoo were more open to that idea...

And yeah, I had the same reaction to the zoo. I don't like kids either, but man, "hot guys + kids = yummy" must be written into our DNA as girls or something.

I've come to the conclusion that something HAD to have gone done in that bed. There's NO WAY that bed didn't see some action.

I totally love this version of the evil mom. She always looks like she's a second away from cutting someone with her diamond necklace.

If only Jun Pyo/Jan Di/Ji Hoo were more open to that idea...

If that happened this would become the BEST HANADAN ADAPTATION EVER.


From: [identity profile] uisceros.livejournal.com


Oh yeah, something happened. They just tactfully skimmed over it. Because why introduce the bed in the first place? It would make sense if she freaked out manga-style, but she didn't. So something must have happened.

Hehe! She's like evil CRAZY mom. It's really awesome.

Totally. THE BEST. You know, if the US ever did decide to get on the HYD bandwagon, I'm sure they'd have NO PROBLEM with an OT3...

From: [identity profile] seven-trees.livejournal.com


The thought of US producers getting their grubby hands on Hanadan makes me break out in hives. It would be on the CW obviously.

From: [identity profile] uisceros.livejournal.com


Obviously! It'd be like Gossip Girl... in fact, it might just actually be Gossip Girl... Hmmm *ponders over this*

From: [identity profile] seven-trees.livejournal.com


Who would be Makino? Dan? Almost everyone in that show is filthy rich and I refuse to imagine Jenny as Makino.

And Domyouji? This about it for a second. Ed Westwick in a perm is not the most pleasant thought.

From: [identity profile] uisceros.livejournal.com


... Okay, you caught me. I do not watch the show, and have no idea about the characters... I totally don't watch American tv anymore.

*snort* That thought amuses the hell out of me.

From: [identity profile] seven-trees.livejournal.com


It's all about rich kids and their emo. It makes me lol like nothing else. I think I've lost about ten IQ points since I started watching.


From: [identity profile] uisceros.livejournal.com


Hehe! Oh rich kids and their emo... Somehow I don't feel bad for super super wealthy people...

I totally used to watch a show on the WB called Popular, which was about popular kids and their emo...

Somehow I don't feel bad for super super wealthy people...

I'd always thought the best cure for depression was falling into a bed of hundred dollar bills. I don't know what their problem is.

I used to watch that too! I have to say that I LOVED the WB when I was younger. All those shows used to have a characteristic lol-worthiness that I was definitely a fan of. There was this one show called Grosse Pointe High which was about bitchy actors in a high school tv show. I ate that up with A SPOON.

From: [identity profile] uisceros.livejournal.com


Or swim in a pool of gold coins, Ducktales-style!

Really?! I would have thought that show would have been before your time. Dude, in my freshman/sophmore years of high school I used to watch almost every single show on the WB at night. I watched all the old school shows; Dawson's Creek, Roswell, Charmed, Buffy, Angel, Felicity, 7th Heaven, One Tree Hill, etc. I'm PREETTY sure I watched Grosse Pointe too. God, late 90's early 00's tv was great.

From: [identity profile] seven-trees.livejournal.com


The WB was IT for me. I was probably way too young to be watching all those teenage sexual shenanigans, but those shows were so freaking addicting. I think the only ones I never watched were Dawson's Creek, Felicity, and 7th Heaven.

And ROSWELL! OH GOD! I have box sets for all three seasons, even though I still pretend the third never happened.

From: [identity profile] uisceros.livejournal.com


I was addicted to them too! I was the target age (15 - 16), but thought most American teenage stuff was horribly bourgeois (yay teenager angst), so the fact that I was in love with the WB stuff was so embarrassing for me.

I watched the first half of 7th Heaven, until Jessica Beal left, and it got bad. I think I wathced basically all of Dawson's Creek... And I watched the last few seaons of Felicity. I loved them all.

Roswell was the shit. Seriously, that show was/is/will always be amazing. Heh, the third season did kinda suck. I hated Tess. The chick who played her is on LOST now, and every time I see her I get angry because she stole Liz's man!

From: [identity profile] seven-trees.livejournal.com


I was around 10-12 around the times those shows aired, but MY GOD was I a fan. I ate all that teenage angst up like candy.

When I first watched Roswell I was COMPLETELY in it for the Max/Liz (COME ON! Hot alien and the quiet honor student? I'M NOT STRONG ENOUGH TO RESIST THAT!) but a few years ago when I bought the box sets and rewatched all of it, I completely fell in love with Michael/Maria, which is probably why I hate season three so much.

Tess was probably the reason why I had an irrational hate of blue-eyed blondes for most of my \preteen/ early teenage years.

From: [identity profile] uisceros.livejournal.com


I can't say I wasn't the same at around that age...

I was the same at first. Michael/Maria were a secondary OTP, but they were definitely an OTP for me. So were Isabel and Alex (until he died).

Heh! Don't blame you. She was a major bitch.
