#Live Up to Your Name

[whenthegoldrays]

TIMESLIP KDRAMAS I'VE WATCHED AND WHAT CHANGING FATE MEANS / INVOLVES IN EACH ONE:

Lovely Runner: you can change the circumstances, but in any reality, people will continue to make the same choices

Live Up To Your Name: you can change your own fate, but is that enough? can you live with that?

My First Love: the more you try to change the tragedy, the more it becomes your fault

Twinkling Watermelon: you can't change the big events, you can only change how prepared people are for them

Marry My Husband: everything that's happened has to happen again, but maybe it doesn't have to happen to you

The Story of Park's Marriage Contract: history repeats itself and the only way to stop it is to arm yourself with knowledge

My Perfect Stranger: the only way to make things better is to learn the truth, however horrible, and confront it head on

Familiar Wife: you can change whatever you want, but watch out!

Wait I can't believe I just realized one of my mutuals has a kdrama sideblog! Have you seen "Live Up To Your Name"?

I haven't, though I have heard of it. All the Kdramas I've watched are pinned to the top of my blog. I will add it to my very informal list. I just finished Extraordinary Attorney Woo, which I loved, and I haven't committed to a new one to binge yet.

As for this being my sideblog, Jane Austen and kdramas give me similar vibes, so I bet there are many others in the JA/Kdrama Venn diagram.

This went from kind of goofy to so sad so quickly.

[eviltiddyproductions]

ummm is my bestie operating on her grandfather??? is that allowed in any medical drama universe ?

I know he asked for it but like 😭💀? it’s still not allowed or am I imagining things ?

[farshootergotme]

Occasionally I picture Nightwing calling Red Hood "little wing" in front of others and people looking between this huge, 6'0 feet tall man with growing white hair, and then Nightwing, a shorter man who has flawless skin, probably around his 20's, and a fit but not too buff build and they just- don't know what's happening. Is it some kind of inside joke they aren't aware of? Why is Nightwing acting as if he's years older than Red-fucking jacked-Hood?

Nightwing: Little wing, you actually were decent in that fight! I'm impressed.

Hero, who was helping during this fight as well, listening in to the conversation: little...?

Red Hood: Wow, feeling very appreciated right now. Got any other backhanded compliments in there?

Hero: Wait, excuse me-

Nightwing: As a matter of fact-

Red Hood: Nope! I'm outta here. Screw you!

Nightwing: You know you love me!

Red Hood: In your dreams, dickhead!

Nightwing: Hey! We don't use that-

Red Hood: Not listening!

Nightwing: Jeez, kids these days...

Red Hood: I'm an adult and fuck you too!

Nightwing: What? Thought you weren't-

Red Hood: See you never, I'm out.

Hero: ...

Hero: what the actual fuck?

ELLY'S TOP TEN K-DRAMAS (with songs to match!)

10. Queen of Tears (2024)

Baek Hyun-woo is relieved to hear that his wife has only three months to live, which will save him the mortification of divorcing her — what he isn’t expecting is to fall back in love with her in those three months. This show gets a little crazy, but the acting is top tier, and the ensemble cast is one of my favorites ever. (Also, the OST is my new most beloved.)

Song for this drama: Don’t Take The Money

9. Extraordinary Attorney Woo (2022)

Woo Young-Woo navigates her career, life changes, and love as a rookie at Hanbada Law Firm and a woman on the autism spectrum. Young-Woo is a darling, and her boy is the greenest flag ever.

4. Lovely Runner (2024)

one day, in a thousand years

[seonsong]

“So this is Yoo Jae-ha,” says the man under his breath, eyeing Yeon Kyung’s companion, and her cheeks turn a shade of pink as she hears him.

“Did you say something?” asks Jae-ha, turning to look at him, but the man reassumes his smile and shakes his head.

“Just talking to myself,” he grins, reaching for his coat on the rack by the door. “It was a pleasure meeting you, Miss…”

“Choi Yeon Kyung,” she answers, dipping her head slightly. “And you were…?”

“Heo Im,” he introduces himself with a similar gesture.

This gets Jae-ha’s attention. “Heo Im?” he questions, turning once again to face him. “Like the famous Joseon physician?”

He laughs shortly. “Yes, just like that.”
