with boys planet airing and me getting back into k-drama's i think my age relative to k-pop has finally hit me. with hwanhee, xiao + jiwoong being some of the oldest contestants on the show, then when we dropped down to twenty-eight seunghwan being the third oldest really made me a bit ill.

jongwoo specifically being the fourth oldest was bleh because we're exactly a month apart and hao is two weeks younger than me (finally a 00-liner winning!)

tell me why i thought the male lead in imitation was like twenty-nine / thirty and then my brain was like "surely he's mid / late twenties" cut to me realising that, he is and that very soon i will be as he's only three years older than me.

this was also when my brain went, "what'd you mean there's someone in u-kiss born in '97?! what was he twelve or something at debut?! because i forgot that adding members in second gen groups was normal.

i just assumed the two leads would be closer in age relative to the rest of the main cast and not the youngest, like jiso is less than a year older than me and what have i done with my life...

kdrama recs?

I rly wanna start watching more kdramas so if you have any suggestions pls tell me!

I've watched Extraordinary You, 18 Again, and i nearly finished Imitation! I think I definitely enjoy ones that revolve around the KPOP industry but I'm open to others too! :))

Lee Je Hoon's Chief Detective 1958 starts today. Can't wait to watch! I enjoyed him in Taxi Driver and really want to watch through his filmography eventually.

Lovely Runner is knocking my socks off! Byeon Wook Seok and Kim Hye Yoon are killing both the comedy and the drama. Wook Seok is the cutest loser in love! The mystery and unexpected twists are fun and interesting. I hope this quality storytelling continues. I'm on the edge of my seat.

I only have 3 episodes left of Love Me Love My Voice which has been wonderful and heartwarming. I love the main romance but the friendships and secondary romances have been given ample time to shine as well. I'm always here a good found family. I really like how the dramatic readings and song perfomances have been carefully woven into the story to further the character development. Definitely recommend.

Now we come to our debrief on The Smile Has Left Your Eyes. Whoa, what a rollercoaster. The first half was interesting with many characters' selfish and dark intentions mixed with a little mystery were set up in contrast to our optimistic, self-sacrificing female lead. However, the second half drowned in major events happening and then being dismissed as if they never happened, multiple secret keepers refusing to tell the secret multiple times an episodes even when asked point blank when the answers could stop so many bad things from happening, and the existential dread I felt about what the big reveal was going to be only for it to completely dismissed. (FYI I found out what I thought was going to be the big reveal IS the actual reveal in the darker Japanese version it's based on.) After episode 14, I wasn't sure I could continue watching the show. But after a night of uneasy sleep, I decided to finish it the next morning on double speed to get through it. I did watch the last 10 minutes at regular speed. While there were some well done things about their relationship in the second half, it couldn't save the show for me even though I went in knowing this was not an HEA. Overall, I was just left feeling angry and exhausted. As a Seo In Guk fan, this was a show I had long wanted to see, just to find out what my opinion on it would be. I'm sad that the SIG fanmeet has been post-poned, hopefully I will be able to make the next date. But this means I feel okay to stop my SIG show binging so I will not be watching Hello Monster anytime soon. I'm actually impressed with how much of SIG's filmography I've already seen (7 shows as a ML, 4 shows as a cameo, and 1 movie). I'm pretty sure it's more than I've seen any other kdrama actor or actress.

After a bad experience at the new dentist yesterday, where the hygienist manhandled my teeth and they tried to upsell me on services, I was in need of a comfort rewatch. I've been thinking alot about Lee Jun Young lately and decided to break out the first thing I ever saw him in, Imitation. I was only going to watch a few favorite parts from an episode or two and ended up binging my favorite parts of most of the series. lol I really hope his upcoming Cinderella romcom with Pyo Ye Jin is going to be good.

I slowly picked Vigilante back up again this week and was excited to see Lee Joon Hyuk's character finally emerge to add a boost of energy and chaos to the story.

Now that I've got some time and the second half of the series has finally dropped, I will continue watching Chae Jong Hyeop's Eye Love You.

I’ve been watching the kdrama ‘imitation’ that Yunho, San, Seonghwa and Jongho are in and it’s sooo good 😭😭 if you haven’t watched it I 100% recommend

[bkimrose]

Guys 😭 how did this happen?!?! I didn't know that Yunho, San, Seongwha and Jongho were in a drama until THIS PAST WEEK. I'm finally sitting down to watch it and I'm so upset about the lost time on this 😭😭😭

i keep forgetting i can post these

controversially, i don't think idols should be (stunt casted or otherwise) playing idols in dramas, especially about idol-life (as main cast, background characters are fine).

this isn't a dig at them personally but i do think it can sometimes hold a show back because as much as a lot of these projects are critical commentary on the system, there's always an air of lightness to them that i feel can contradict the work because these idols do have teams and do have images to uphold post-drama and they probably don't want their idols to come across too polarising, fictional or otherwise.

it's one of the reason i don't really consume anything exo has been in (other than the genre's not being my thing), to this day, other than kyungsoo the only media i've seen the majority of exo in, is exo: next door.

because i always feel like the script is aware that an idol is playing the role.

i get excited when i don't know the idols in these types of dramas because i go in with no pre-conceived notions (like the jihan issue in the coup, because i know hani is like a decade older than the kid playing him.)

don't get me wrong, i know why they do it. its cost effective when your cast can already sing and dance and to state the obvious, it gets an audience interested in the show.

i also would love these types of drama to have slightly higher budget, like the fabulous is a decent example.
