oh no

Oh no I've disappeared again hahaha, it seems like complete free time doesn't exist since two years ago. Anyway, I've been catching up on a few things recently Aaron's new drama — what a pity Puff isn't acting in it! I guess we do have to give Tia a chance though. Those fans who kept putting Tia down and saying how good Puff was, remember she wasn't the best when she first started out on Just You…in fact I could positively say she was quite horrid in the first few episodes. So since she improved greatly, we should give Tia an opportunity to prove herself too! I just wish I could see the sparks between Aaron and Puff again, they are REALLY cute. 3 Days — not a great drama for my heart because I just can't take thriller (no idea how I survived the City Hunter days) hence I've stopped at Episode 9 after shouting at the screen because even I know that the Secret Service should be protecting the Major rather than the …

Just a quick look

Published by

Just took a quick look through my archives and wow discovered reviews/recaps done by myself which I've kinda forgotten:P And I discovered  that there are quite a number of comments which I've totally forgotten to reply (there goes my policy of replying every single comment lol). Anyway, Hmm it's too early, since it's still September, to do a round of 2011's dramas and animes and shows and books and what-not….but till now I must say that  City Hunter remains the Drama of The Year. I mean, this show seriously just sent all the other dramas out there stumbling to get their feets steady. Of course, there were other good dramas as well, but I guess the brilliant mix of action, romance, revenge (meaning plot) is just my right cup of tea. Not to mention having the Tragic-And-Torn Hero of The Year going to Lee Yoon Sung and The Most Likeable Female Lead going to Nana.  Though of course, I must say, after watching for the nth time (okay probably only the third time), Buzzer Beat …

City Hunter Episode 1-20 in one glance

Published by

Haha this isn't a recap, no, not really….. but as I was looking through the hundreds of screenshots I took in order to recap City Hunter, I felt that some of the scenes were really so memorable, that I couldn't help but mentally already choose out some of the best screenshots representing some of the most memorable scenes. I've decided to put them all here, so that you(and I) can reminisce about City Hunter in one glance. Lol. Tags of City Hunter Recaps are on your left -indicate to the tags- so do read them if you want(:

Lj scribe, and mini scoops of updates

Published by

Hello guys! My week is slowly ending and entering yet another week of insanity. It will be crazy with my studies and hence, recaps will come later, but I will still post regularly.  I'm currently watching Heartstrings now, finally I get some sense of what's going on and am finally interested in the characters. Phew. I thought it had lost me. It really depends on various factors if I will do recaps for Heartstrings, because as you know, (well if you don't I'm telling you now:P) those take lots of timeD: but it will be so fun to do the recaps… so we shall see how! Was planning to come up with either a City Hunter recap or a Hana Kimi one today, but somehow, Internet's not on my side, and hence the videos wouldn't load, and then I can't rewatch it (even though I have a pretty good memory for what happened in dramas, I'd rather watch it again so as to avoid any possible discrepencies in recaps) and then you don't have the …

Updates~

I’ve been spending the past ten minutes grinding my brain juices to come up with a new title, but neh, you can see that I didn’t succeed. One of my readers gave a good suggestion of ‘Talk’, and I was thinking of ‘Thoughts’ but both just don’t fit as well as you know…… good ole pure Updates. Hahaha:P We will see howXD  I always like to tweak certain things on my livejournal layout from time to time, because it gives me a new, fresh perspective on my livejournal…. and I always hope that they are improvements. For one, the note on the Sticky Note has been altered if you realise(: and I’ve also changed the name of ‘comments’ to ‘rambles’ which kind of suit nicely to my livejournal name^^ Yeahh(Y) As to what I’ve been doing lately… I’ve been coming up with City Hunter trivia and City Hunter Recaps, and updating more frequently than usual (almost as fast as my usual speed last year). This is because I will be quite absent from next, next …

Lee Min Ho’s Interview about City Hunter

Published by

Q: The style in City Hunter is totally different from Boys Over Flowers and Personal Preference. What is your emphasis on acting in City Hunter? A:I think that it should be the relationship between characters. As the plot develops, Lee Young Sung and Kim Young Joo’s relationship gradually changes. When Kim Young Joo’s father had an accident because of Lee Yoon Sung, it seems that it should be tense between the both of them after that. However, if one recalls the relationship between these two people, Lee Yoon Sung will naturally feel guilty, because after all, it is because of him that Kim Young Joo’s father met with the car accident. While acting this out, I don’t want to ignore the interactions between people.   Q:If the script has a clash with the understanding that you had of a character, how would you solve it? A: Firstly, I will think it through carefully. If I have a very clear idea or thought, I will mention it for us to discuss. Actually, this has something to …

Lee Min Ho expresses regrets at the incomplete love in City Hunter

More trivia on Lee Min Ho and City Hunter:  Q: Heard that while filming City Hunter, you were hurt by the pieces of explosion. How’s the recovery?A:There were two sites of explosion on the set. Perhaps there was too much explosives, after the explosion, the glass shards hurt my leg. I’m better now, but actually I have a lot of injuries everywhere, I still feel that it’s tough (laughs) Q:In City Hunter, it ends with the foster father dying, and Lee Yoon Sung living on. Towards this ending, what’s your views? A:This ending suits Lee Yoon Sung’s character very well. Yoon Sung is someone who doesn’t know how to be selfish. It’s not realistic for him to live on happily when his foster father died. The best ending will be like what happened in the drama, he still stays around in the city, leaving people the grave impression of the view of his back. But after that, perhaps Lee Yoon Sung will get his happiness (laughs) like the original works, it’s good to live a …

Lee Min Ho willing to participate in City Hunter Season 2

Published by

  Oh wow. I never thought I'd be doing this, but oh well, it's good to have variation in one's livejournal^^ I've been searching for more trivia regarding City Hunter, and I came across this interview which says that Lee Min Ho will be happy to take part in a Season 2. This interview also gives his interpretation of the ending:  " Adapted from the manga, City Hunter, the drama has garnered attention because of its focus on social issues. The only flaw is its ambiguous ending at the end of the drama regarding the romance, and this has been criticised by some members of the public, to the point of the theory of "Lee Min Ho's spirit".  Regarding this, Lee Min Ho expressed, "There are indeed many regrets in the drama's romance. After kissing Kim Nana, City Hunter's identity was found out by others. From then on, the relationship between the two has no progress; for Kim Nana to wait till the five people were punished is also regretful." "Even though I can understand the City …

Lee Min Ho in action

Published by

Lol I’ve been wanting to do this post for quite a long time, because I’ve been watching so many behind the scenes and funny NGs that I wanna share with you guys here!  So in relation to the previous post, yep Lee Min Ho leaps around the cars, especially in the junkyard scene, HIMSELF:DDD So exciting to know that hahahaha.  credited to: http://www.askactor.com  "   City Hunter’s” martial arts director Yang Kil Young stated, “While Lee Min Ho’s tall height is a disadvantage for stunts, his agility and reflexes help him create superb action scenes. Additionally, he puts in a lot of effort and does not spare himself. Working with him was a rewarding experience, and I enjoyed it.”  "  Aahhhhh allow me to fangirl for a while:D I mean I have nothing, absolutely nothing I think, against actors/actresses who use stuntmen/women because after all, actors are meant to act, in a sense, not fight but this is why it’s so amazing to see actors who are so professional in their jobs ( I don’t …

City Hunter

OMGG okay I’m totally working on City Hunter Recaps:D But I’m also watching Behind the scenes and NGs of City Hunter (I LOVE WATCHING BEHIND THE SCENES, just sayingXD Who’s with me lol. ) and and and ah okay I know that Lee Min Ho didn’t use a stuntman for his actions, but still it’s so cool to watch the behind the scenes and see Lee Min Ho personally doing all the turns on the cars and props HIMSELF! I mean obviously, I know that his fist is not so strong in real life that he could smash a window/a mirror, and that even though the City Hunter could defeat so many opponents, in reality, they are not even fighting, but it’s just very cool to me to see Lee Min Ho running on cars and leaping from here to there in reality :DD  <3thoughtsramble

Hello readers! Yes haha here’s some updates on me! I’m currently watching City Hunter, and doing recaps on it. Toda Erika’s drama is going to be watched slowly instead… I kinda tried watching K One which was pretty funny but it’s too nonsensical for me to watch hee hee every episode because honestly I was really watching for Aaron. Yes, talking about Aaron…my recaps aren’t coming as fast as I hope because for the past few days I’ve been focusing a lot of time and energy on this particular whirlwind. Wu Zun has left Fahrenheit! This has caused such dramatic reactions in fans, that now some fans are targetting Aaron… so well, I’m kinda focusing on that right now, so apologies! MIT recaps are something that I do when I feel like it, because I feel that I’m purely writing it to share with you guys(: Just asking, is there anyone out there who haven’t watched it? Well you should! My break is going to be over pretty soon, so I will be back with the hectic …
