My sincere apologies - I am still behind with answering the comments!

Cinderella's sister
I loved the episode 13, I think I have settled in this drama and I am in love with every character, including secondary and evil characters. I am also in absolute love with the location of the farm. The place is absolutely fabulous!

There were some very intense moments in the episode 13, but my favourite still was "The evil brother number two gets a decent haircut and asks Ki Hoon to introduce him to Hyo Sun". Awwww! This was so cute. Also it seems there is no love between the two evil brothers, and may be the brother number two (and the brother number one) aren't that evil and everything is the result machinations of Ki Hoon's father (who is surely evil :D) :

Personal taste/Oh My Lady
I am following both of these, in a VERY fast forward mode, and my conviction is set: these are not-bad-but-pass-and-forget dramas; I will remember the first one more for good kissing scenes than for any coherency (also warning: don't watch it if the rights of gay people are close to your heart) and the second sadly falls by the wayside in terms of chemistry between the leads.

Prosecutor Princess
Seeing the subs are coming nice and fast, I have finally started "Prosecutor Princess". I am loving it in big way, mostly for snappy dialogue, fresh characters and electric combination of Park Shi Hoo+Kim So Yeon.

But there are two very distracting moments in this drama:
- Ma Hye Ri's terrible haircut. The hair stylists resonsible for the drama couldn't have chosen a less flattering haircut for gorgeous Kim So Yeon even if they tried, and they almost succeeded in making her ugly. As a haircut purist, I also must point out that this horror CAN NOT be a creation of any designer hair salon (as it supposed to be). Not unless all the hairdressers in the salon are on drugs.

- Ma Hye Ri's atrocious clothes. I refuse to believe these are purchased from any of designer shops (I haven't seen anything as ugly anywhere), and if they are, they matched in a "lets make it as less colour and shape coordinated as possible" way. This is not Cordelia, and this is not the girl from "Legally Blond": both of them had some very bold , but cute outfits. This is a mad chick who thinks that orange, purple and green go together in one combination (plus yellow shoes). I am going to make a special post about Ma Hye Ri's clothes because these clothes are totally post-worthy. Again, because I have not a passing interest in clothes, every single outfit of Ma Hye Ri's hurts my eyes and makes the drama less believable (designer shops - NO WAY!).

We well over the half of this 16-episodes drama, and I am still not at all convinced that there is much chemistry between the two leads. Take me right, the kiss scene was quite good and there few enough sparks flying at that very moment, but this was 4 episodes ago. The way they interact on day-to-day basis doesn't give me "eternal love" vibe at all. On Gae Hwa's part , she treats him with indulgence as immature younger brother. On Min Woo's part, he seems to have huge pity and compassion for her. But pity+indulgence do not make a couple! I wonder if this is intentional, or if the actors for some reason aren't able to display attraction to each other?

Also, more I see them , more I notice that there is such a huge gap in maturity between them. How will they ever come together as a couple? So far, it seems that if this happens , it will look like a cradle robbing. I am more and more inclined to think that this drama will have an open ending.

But Min Woo is totally adorable as "young father":


More adorableness )

I am feeling a bit tired today (big doses of antivirals have affected me?) , but before going to bed I have watched the seventh episode of "Oh! My Lady" raw. With not too many deep thoughts, I think I love this drama. Gae Hwa continues to be awesomely unaffected by anything, where Min Woo has fallen for her hard. Please more kissing soon?

The scene from the preview for the episode 8 that made my heart beat as loud as Min Woos )
alexandral: (Powerful opponents - all i need is a her)
Have watched all six episodes of "Oh my Lady". I am loving this drama so far, it is like "Lovers in Paris" and "Last Scandal" were married and had a child. Just the thing one needs whilst recuperating!!!

I have come really really close to doing unthinkable, namely checking an Asian pop group, and not just any Asian pop group but a group whose very name sends me off running away giggling. Surely, the name "Super Junior" does not promise musical sophistication? BUT! Just have a look at the pictures of Si Won, one of "Super Junior" members:



the rest of pictures of Si Won: abs and fashions galore )

And I kind of liked his voice too. Please recommend me some of his songs if you know any good ones? ** puppy eyes **

PS: Just to add to my torn feelings: Si Won's nickname is Simba. HAHAHAHAHA. Nothing amuses me as much these days as Asian pop nicknames. If anyone knows the story behind the nickname - I would appreciate it very much if you let me know!
