The more the wait, the sweeter the satisfaction . I tell you, excellent quality subbed episodes come approx. the second day after airing. My Asian TV. C o m does 24 hrs tho if it's a very very popular drama. That means subbers will be working round the clock for it. So I guess there is hope for 'us'.



I go at least watch episode one now. To show solidarity

That's right, there's hope. God knows I need all the hope I can get.

Aida13:
Mine is February 2014.

Lol look how we're calling dates like it's our Matric or something...

But come hope u won't be expecting me to use honorifics for you ooh sunbae


Go back in time, lol I saw that article too. So many heroes but like one fan said, those days if a woman messed up, especially if she was the Queen or whatever, it will be "off with her head" or worse a bowl of poison

The fan said she'd rather the Sageuk hero came over to our time... Not the other way round. I'll pick Lee Jun Ki or Jang Hyuk. They know how to protect and fight for their damsels jare.

Lmao @ honorifics. Koreans take stuff like that seriously, so in the spirit, start adding --yo' to your sentences

For me, I'd bring Kim Soo Hyun from Moon/Sun to the present. He's the best looking Joseon King... ever.

ellab:
filming for scholar is ongoing.
I think Lee jun ki has a personal love for acting sageuks. he should be name d king of d jeosen era.

Lee yubi as a guy. nope..she still looks feminine to me.

She's strange, as white as a ghost in that first pic. No! No! No!

Aida13:
She looks like she wants to disappear

Why am I still so sad they chose this girl? She almost wants to be swallowed in that costume. And she's not half as interesting a 'boy' as Ha Ji Won and Park Min Young were. Oh LJK bae can you really make this combo work?

Well I'll stay positive lol. LJK has always been finer than his costar since 1250 Joseon era anyway... LMAO

Lmao @ wants to disappear.

I saw a post sometime ago about sageuk males that make you want to go back in time. So, what sageuk males want you to go back in time to meet them?

Aida13:
Omo!! So you be my sunbae for the Kdrama watching industry.. Lol

That's right hoobae, I started August 2013 with BOF, and since then, no turning back.

Aida13:
I've been seeing a lot about the drama over the past weeks, so Orange Marmalade definitely has some attention.

Take it easy ooo you and this Producer. You know that technically, in reality you can't get to enjoy it until 48 hrs right? That's Monday ××××massive grin×××

Because that's when the full subbed episode will be up for download so don't get yourself all twisted yet over KSH

Ehn? 48 hrs? I'm telling you by faith, it'll be up on by tomorrow.
How am I supposed to wait till Monday??

ellab:
so many Friday competitions.
producer did well in online ratings-25.5% but TMAD (three meals a day) by na PD beat it with -30%. Dunno bout orange marmalade yet.
I'm happy online ratings are being calculated now.
waiting for d TV ratings.

Oshe! I'm pretty sure the online ratings would be higher than the TV ratings since more peeps watch online. Still I'm glad.

megola:
...tanks...But are u sure ure nt Korean? cos it seems u know all of them o......lol

If only... I've been watching Kdramas for almost 2 years now, so I try to learn whatever I can.

megola:
Hmmm.....finally I have to actually comment on this thread. I ve been a follower of this thread ever since i stumbled ON IT. Peoples comments here made me to actually watch healer.....I wanted to see that guy that could actually take over my likeness for LMH....lol....since i watched city hunter I cudnt stop looking for that guys movie. Thank God for this thread sha.....after watching healer....i wanted to see that guy's movie AGAIN. I read comments about Empress Ki but i kept ignoring it cos I dont really like MOVIES with village settings....and with the lenght of empress ki...i didnt want to go for it...but finally I tried watching the series and wow....the series was sos so good...made me sleep late cos of the urge to know wat wud happen next.... It however got me tinking cos i dont think ive seen a movie where almost all the major casts died. I kinda felt bad/sad somehow sha. But these koreans are actually very good. I dont know how but they make sure they get one glued to their movies that you will want to see the end.
And thumbs up to u guys here. For u guys to even know them by name its means uve really gone far in watchin their movies. Thanks to u guys am becoming less LMH and more JWC. Am really lookin forward to his other movies/series. Am not really attached to any of their girls but that empress ki babe...menh she is good....she's same girl in secret garden I tink.....I tink shes the only korean girl ive seen without the 'DEAD FISH KISS' as u guys call it... lol...

Happy first comment!

Aida13:

I just woke up from my afternoon nap, and I'm positive I saw my bias in my dream.
I think I'm going crazy while waiting for ep1.



Funny how Producer got all the attention even though Orange Marmalade starts today as well.

ellab:
i know, lol couldn't wait so I was watching it raw but d link is taking time to stream. too much traffic. urgh!
I hope gets d sub's ready tomorrow. lol

I had a feeling there'll be much traffic. Just wait to download the subbed version.

ellab:
I won't watch it while it airs but I ll be patiently waiting for the subs.. ohhh im so excited altho I'm tryna stay away from soompi to avoid spoilers but its not working.urgh!

Lmao Producer fever. Wait, you won't watch it till the entire drama is over, or you won't watch an episode till the subs are out, like the rest of us?

It's going down in like 5 minutes from now.... It airs 9:15pm which is like 4 minutes from now Korea time. *shivers*

hilda90:
This comeo of a thing, is it not like 10 secs appearance? i remember Goo hara made a few secs appearance in its okay thats love.i dont think i can tune in to a drama just to see an actor who appeared for few secs in a drama, lol.

i am going to watch the producers as it airs,the teaser looks promising but i hope they wont go the wrong way with the storyline. it better live up to its hype, i dont want the drama to turn out like THE HEIRS which didn't live up to its hype.

10 seconds. Maybe more, or less. Either way, It's fun. So much hype and expectations for a 12 episode Producer, I'm keeping my fingers crossed.

Aida13:
Funny enough, out of the 100 'makeovers' I've seen in a Kdrama, only 3 or 4 were really a drastic improvement. The rest 97 looked just the same as they were before jare, just with better clothes lol

You are so correct: for 'girl next door' characters I understand why they would play down her looks with a bad hairdo all thru the drama like PMY in Healer (I say it again, it was really unflattering!!) but somehow her beauty was still mesmerising

It's good though when I see truly beautiful actress allowed to showcase her looks in a drama. Like That Winter The Wind Blows woow. Now I know who's Korea's most beautiful.

Lol at 'open eyeballs and mouth increase in size'.... Or is it the other way round lol... Its true though the guy always looks so comical. They too like better thing jare.

Ahjumma in Healer looked good when combed that disaster of a hair and became normal. Funny enough, I liked PMY's style in Healer she didn't look perfect, just the way I like it.



Check out this wonderful make over. Doesn't he look so handsome?

Aida13:
Oh OK, if you like those broadcasting dramas, then I totally get your enthusiasm. Just like I enjoy rich guy-poor girl Cinderella dramas

By the way...just wondered why these days, they give the female leads such unflattering haircuts. As if to downplay their attractiveness. Making them look 'plainer' so they will appeal to everyday women who will relate to them?

Happened in Healer with Park Min Young. Gave her a short, asymmetrical bob that made her look like a girlish boy

The woman in Falling for Innocence has a hair style that makes her look far older

In Masked Prosecutor, the leading lady as a weird pixie cut too. They no want make their female leads fine pass them abi, these male actors

Just my observation anyway.

I also enjoy Cinderella dramas, just that I love seeing the stages and process behind the scenes of the programs we watch on TV, competition for a certain time slot etc.

They probably make them have bad hair days so the average Korean woman can relate. Besides, many actresses want to be known for their acting rather than good looks. Except the drama is about 'looks' like BoaB, if it's a girl-next-door role, bad hair all the way.
Besides, it makes a 'make over' appear better. You know those times the guy gives her a make over and she steps out looking stunning, and the male lead is like *opens moutb and eyeballs increase in size* " So, you're this beautiful..."

Aida13:
Yep, you got it bad for this drama. I wish I knew exactly what excites you the most about it---your bias Kim Soo Hyun, the whole cast, the storyline? It reminds me too much of Pinocchio, and the pairings of the leads are soooo random. It bothers me. I will support it for Gong Hyo Jin, but I don't have high expectations. You should keep yours reined in



Don't worry when Scholar Who Walks the Night is about to start, you can tease me back LMAO

A combo of my bias and the storyline. I love anything that has to do with the happenings in Broadcasting networks. Can I really keep my expectations on a low? Highly recommended, but highly doubtful lol.

When it's time for your bias' screen time, then we'll see.

Aida13:
that's the same way I'll be screaming when Night Strolling Scholar finally arrives my most anticipated Lee Joon Gi ......



aiissh...yes, Warm and Cozy it is...it already started off with a cameo from So Ji sub, so I got mixed up. Will definitely be watching Warm and Cozy.

if Jang Hyuk shows in Producer, I'll watch...that episode

I've been online all morning looking for any new detail or trivia from the drama. Never in my life have I been so geared up about a drama, and to think I was advising you yesterday to play it cool with Masked Prosecutor.

Aida13:
I just now am about finished watching them both in That Winter, The Wind Blows. I'm halfway thru the last episode. They look so perfect together. But I read that they are just friends not that they ever dated, but they are close.

It would be great if Producer was full of cameos. That will make me definitely watch. The Hong Sisters, the famous writers behind this drama, I noticed like using top actors for cameos. They did it in Master's Sun and The Greatest Love.

The Hong Sisters aren't working in Producer, but in Warm and Cozy.
There'll be lots of cameos in this drama, and your guy Jang Hyuk might show face as well.



It's finally here!!!!!!!! My most anticipated drama of 2015!!!!!!!
*screaming out my lungs*

If this is true, then I'd have been dead already. I used to take drugs with soft drinks.

Teeboy22:
A youth died just because of his likeness for PANADOL,

What kind of youth likes Panadol sef?

Love is Timeless
Her Mother's Daughter.

"You know, I'm bilingual. I speak biitch too." from Bring it on -Fight to the Finish.

"Half of politics is suspicion, the other half of it is confirmation." from Empress Ki.

"Do I look like a killer to you?"
"Yes, you kill my patience." from TV series Castle.

I read the entire story. Pretty messed up shiit.

ellab:
This news totally shocked me.Want expecting this at allll.
www.allkpop.com/article/2015/05/bae-yong-joon-and-park-soo-jin-to-marry-this-fall

park soo jin acted as d 2nd female lead in "my gf is a gumiho".
there was no dating news..nada.
on her part,there was a guy we thought she was dating,she dint deny d news and then BAM,she's getting married to bae young joon.lol
I know u guys are confused..don't mind me.

Weird.

hilda90:
I watched the 7min teaser of THE PRODUCERS on youtube yesterday night,the drama looks promising.

who are you guys shipping Kim soo hyun with?IU or Gong hyo jin?

Kim and IU!!! They look better suited together, plus they've acted together before in Dream High. They had such a pleasant harmony in their a cappella for Dream High, I really like the song.

hilda90:
That Gaksital mask scared me out of my wits,it looked like a white face with black eyes.I prefer the mask Lee min ho wore in city hunter,his eyes were visible,it only covered the lower part of his face.

Lmao. I loved the mask though, it suited his white clothes.
Now anybody my mum sees covering his face, she'll be calling them bridal mask.

Aida13:
OK I go hear word for once lol

Make sure you're with popcorn too as you watch, so you can throw some at the screen if things don't go as you expect.

Aida13:
I just want the feels. Didn't have enough of them in Birth of a Beauty. Could Masked Prosecutor be another Healer please...


Lol

My advise, don't put all your expectations on it. Just calm down and try to have a good time while watching. If it's another Healer, wow! Awesome! If not, you won't feel disappointed.





I'll be taking my own advise too lol.

Aida13:
Hwang Sun hee, I see from her profile she was in Master's Sun. I don't really know the cast accept for JSW. I like his serious side (Good Doctor) and his dorky side (Birth of a Beauty). I'm eager to see what next.

Wow! I'm so in love with this drama already. I know most of the cast members, and I love seeing familiar faces in dramas.

She's probably searching for answers and inner peace. I do hope she finds them.

Aida13:
Everyone's talking about looking forward to the drama but not the mask somehow I think he's going to pull it off well. If not then at least there's Producers, Jeju Island/Warm and Cozy and Mask.

He will pull it off well, he's JSW after all . Plus he has a great leading lady, and the second leads are very good actors too. I'm actually happy for the second female Hwang Sun Hee, I've been wanting to see her in a drama since last year.

ellab:
that mask is a no no..it looks like sum'n a kid would put on.

I know, right. I really don't get the entire concept. Gaksital's own was better, at least one could see the lower part of his face.

Aida13:
Looks like one of those masked Mexican WWE wrestlers.. Rey Mysterio abi wetin dem call am... Oh my oh my. Hope this goes well...

I had exactly the same thought lol. I wished they had let a bit of his handsome face show. Covering it all like that isn't nice at all.

So, I finally watched the trailer of Masked Prosecutor and here's a side view of what his alter ego looks like.
