Soju-Like-Kdramas

In an effort towards being more productive on this blog, I have decided to finish as many of my incomplete posts as possible. I have so many posts in draft mode people it isn't even funny anymore. Then again I digress.....I present to you, what will be the first of (hopefully) many more posts for your reading pleasure.  A K-Pop GIF Challenge!! To start, go to your GIF folder. You have one I know you do. For each part choose every 5th GIF. Begin with either the 5th GIF from the bottom and then move up your list. OR start with the 5th from the top of your list, then move down. If you reach the "end or beginning" of your folder and you still have sections which you need to select GIFs for, continue with your count from the opposite side of your current location. Everyone Ready?

NCT is an interesting concept. I know I haven't been on top of my music reviews or anything for that matter  but the NCT initiative has always intrigued me. It has the potential to be super successful for SM Entertainment, but it also has potential to blow up in their faces. I'm going to be taking a look at the NCT-127 sub unit's most recent Music Video for their latest song Cherry Bomb. So join me as we look at if this single has what it takes to draw in views during its first 24 hours after release.

I’ll admit it. I’m a horrible blogger. It’s been two years since I considered even looking at these recaps. Last we left off Leo had suddenly decided to jump ships from OZ to Tian Ji, Tao Zi had one last night of passion before Tian Xing has the shackles of a forced marriage clasped on, and Huan Huan--Huan Huan would have rather been hit by a truck than have her lie exposed to the world. Will Little Miss Liar Liar live to lie another day, or does Tian Xing finally find a way out of this horrible engagement? Join Aunnie, Wendilynn and I, Firnlambe, as we finally discuss episode 17 of Fall in Love with Me.

It was bound to happen eventually. For at least 2 years we have been seeing teasers and images following SM Entertainment's "SM Rookies" group. While the group consists of boys and girls, both of whom have been helping Super Junior's Leeteuk MC Disney Korea's Mickey Mouse Club, recently it's been clear that Lee Soo Man's primary focus has revolved around the boys. Of course Wednesday's announcement is only adding fuel to the fire, resulting in SM Entertainment really taking the term "Boy Group" to the next level.

Greetings readers!! I'm back with another MV review! This post will be covering the last two music videos released by . . .  I will be sticking with the Drama versions only, because at the time I started working on this post (eons ago) Married to the Music had only recently been released and there was no dance version to compare with View. Expect a separate post comparing the dance versions in the future---if I can keep the real world in check. Anyway! These videos are interesting to say the least, so lets begin shall we?

Well, once again real life has a mind of it's own. I've been having too much fun working on Dramafever's Drama Clubs, which has led me to neglect this blog. Anyway . . . I fully plan on getting our other nightcaps uploaded for your reading pleasure but for now here is our take on episode 4 and all the shenanigans our lovely characters are getting themselves into.

Wow . . . it's been so long since I've done a review. And honestly I didn't think this  group would be the one to bring me back to even doing reviews. So, in case you were not aware--I'm not a huge fan of girl groups. Even the groups I "like" are groups I'll only buy MAX one or two songs from their albums, and even then 4MINUTE wasn't even near the top of that list.

Sorry about the exceptionally long delay Journalists, but the real life beckoned  . . .  anyways, episode three was filled with many new trials for our Prince and Shaman. Join Aunnie, Miri, Taleena, Wendilynn and myself as we discuss everything from Dragon whispering and rampant pleasure house ghosts, to new specimen additions to Miri and Aunnie's scientific endeavors.

Greetings!!! Hopefully I'll be able to get back on track with my drama recaps soon, but I need to get this off my chest while the feelings are still fresh.

Welcome Journalists, to the second episode of  The Nightwatchman's Journal . Join Aunnie, Wendilynn, Taleena, Miri and myself as we discuss the multitude of theories that this episode provided. We cover everything from; possessions via mist, royalty gone crazy, creepy ghosts as well as revisiting the scientific significance of  . . .  cuppybowls?  . . .  Read on for a post that's sure to make you laugh. (we apologize for the lengthy entry. What can we say other than  . . .  cuppybowls  . . . )

Welcome drama fans!! Are you prepared to enter the minds of 5 women who've become slightly obsessed with the glorious wonder that is the world of Kdramas? Well I hope so, because we've decided to tackle yet another currently airing drama for your recapping pleasure . . . The Night Watchman's Journal . Join Aunnie, Miri, Taleena, Wendilynn and myself as we journey through this drama filled with suspense, fantasy and romance. We're quite a few weeks behind the episode curve so let’s get started--shall we?

Now, I have loved The Bangtang Boys or BTS since their beginning, but holy crap . . .  These teasers for their newest MV "Danger" look and sound absolutely stunning! I'm really looking forward to hearing the rest off their first full album. 

Waaaaay back when this blog was still new, I foolishly created a set of drinking games to play while watching your favorite Kdramas. (listed here . . . .  please forgive me, they probably need need a massive revamping). This got me thinking, you should probably only stick to watching Kdramas you've seen multiple times while playing the game. That cuts out a lot of possible dramas you can watch, and that's unfortunate . . .  unless, of course, you don't particularly care about remembering what happens in the drama you pick. Which then lead me and Aunnie to creating this interesting game. If you've been in the Hallyu-verse for as long as we have, I'm sure you've heard of a little variety show called . . . 

Greetings Fall in Love with Me fans!! Sadly we've only got 4 more episodes to our beloved series, so unfortunately that means even more crazy plots and more heartbreaks will be packed into each remaining episode. Last episode had most of use filling up the rage meter, and for those of you who still hadn't felt the need to grab the nearest pillow and chuck it at the wall . . .  well this episode will more than likely give you the extra push you need to start throwing. Lets get started shall we?

Last week we left off on an ultimatum; Tian Xing needs to marry Huan Huan in exchange for Oz's survival. Just when Le Si is opening up her heart once more to Tian Xing--Tensions are high as he is forced to make a decision that will cost him everything he holds dear--his friends, Oz, Le Si but more importantly, his freedom. How will he handle the choices in front of him? Let's find out on this week's Fall In Love With Me . . .

Last week we learned just how precariously Tian Xing's livelihood stands in the balance between his "duty" to Tian Ji and his love for Oz--or more specifically, Le Si. Not to mention the betrayal that is going on behind doors with regards to Huan Huan's spinal issue--will Tian Xing be able to extract himself from the tangled web that is Tian Ji or is he permanently ensnared? Let's find out on this week's Fall In Love With Me.

Earlier this year it was time for netizens from across the globe to tune in and cast their votes in 13 different categories during DramaFever's Second Annual Drama Awards. DramaFever has also graciously posted the whole ceremony . Complete with special guest appearances and the acceptance speeches that were sent in from Korea, for the viewing pleasure of those of us who were unable to make the trip out to NYC and attend the awards in person. Hey, Aunnie here and I've come to reprise my role as Soju-Like-Kdrama's dedicated stalker. I, too, have much to say about the 2013 DramaFever Second Annual Drama Awards. Look for me in green . . . . Alright, Firnlambe, take it away!

Last week ended with broken hearts and...broken necks? The episode was strewn with so many emotions, we in the Drama Club had a hard time processing all the twists and turns and, quite frankly, the amount of feels the writers have no problem shooting our way. And if the preview is anything to go by, it doesn't look to be stopping any time soon! Without further ado, Episode 13 . . .

Henry's back!!! This comeback was announced a mere 7 days ago . . . and boy did SM pull through and deliver! It's got all the key factors you could want from a comeback MV. The music rocks, the visuals are amazing, and the dancing is spot on. I honestly had nothing to bitch about . . . and usually I can find something on the first viewing--but I'll get to that later.

Truth's out, cards have been played and it's an all out war in episode 12 of Fall In Love With Me and they're going for blood. I think we can all agree that Tian Xing messed up but just how will he try to mend bridges with the people of Oz? Will he fall into Lance's trap and stay by Huan Huan's side? And just how will Le Si handle Leo's confession of love? Let's recap Episode 12 and find out . . .
