2011 Dramas

   Not that last year was prolific with outstanding dramas. Bad thing - it wasn't. I dropped more dramas than in previous years combined. Those years past I finished almost all dramas I started, but with Secret Garden last year I had an epiphany. I realized I have no obligation whatsoever to finish the drama I have no feel for, or I didn't "click" with it.

And I have problem with classifying *fangirl alert* What's Up! or Padam Padam. Fact, those both started last year, but I prefer to treat them as 2012 dramas. Why? Because 2011 was a crappy year for me.

Yeah, maybe biased list, maybe no one agrees with me (but I won't cry in the corner as 'certain someone The Diva'), yet I don't impose my opinion, so feel free to disagree.

I respect my dearest readers opinions and taste as well.

As long as they won't steal one of my 82673512365 loves.

Winter Dramas

Not the happiest person here when winter is mentioned, but what can I do? Make some cocoa and hope that more hawt men will be on screen. 

Supernatural in Kdrama

What is the first thing on our mind when we hear “supernatural”? Wizards? Magical powers? None of them belong, in fact, to the world of “supernatural” or “overnatural” as I prefer to call it. The difference is huge. “Supernatural” depicts some extra amount added to the existing “natural” base (as in super-computer, it’s still computer nonetheless), but “overnatural” is some kind of transgression. It stays with a distance from the natural, and it may or may not have few common places. As you know (or not) I deal with such things on my daily research basis (have two spare spectres in the closet, want one?), and I don’t jump into the groundbreaking conclusion after seeing trailer to one movie. That would be as wise as judge Kdramaland after seeing only one episode of some drama. I read hundreds of sources, to tell the truth.

This is not thought as the article delving into archetypes of such occurrences. More likely I’d like to present some types of characters and happenings that take place in obscurity where the sunshine of usual Kdrama fluff is unable to reach.

Vampire Prosecutor

   I will be honest - I thought of ignoring that drama. Trailer was cheesy and I thought, well, I probably didn't think at all. But, aren't the vampires in the orbit of my research? Kind of Saturn orbit, but close enough. And I watched the first episode. And now I'm waiting for the second. The fact that main actor looks like Yucheon's hyeong also doesn't hurt, ekhem...

The last drama with vampires I watched was Freeze, and it was good.
