SKKS - some pictures

   
   Well, to close this day with a smile, even though forced maybe... some pictures from SKKS. It's a bit sad to think that on this upcoming Tuesday it will be the last episode. No confirmation about the extending, no confirmation about the sequel or at least special. Producers said that with this material, they could make another season with ease. No wonder since they finished only the first book. There is also many  things, according to them, that could have been showed, like more on Professor Jeong, or the political intrigue. But it had to be with the same cast. I can't see any other Yongha or Seonjun. Jaeshin too^^ But, as we all know, all of the actors are busy with their own schedules.
This is why I start to plead, for now with a low voice: Park Yucheon, get over with singing and start acting!

  I have absolutely nothing to say.

One man two movies

   Jeong Jaeyoung... I guess Korean movie shows are spoiling me. Somehow a good TV Fairy heard my sobbing and pleading during those cold, dark nights without KNG bright smile, and now I get few JJY moments. I know this will come to an end when there will be no movie to promote, and I will have to wait few months on the complete dessert. But hell, I have movies, I can watch them all over again...

Thank You


For being born and for watching over me

47th Daejong Awards

   As we all know a month ago So Jisub got the special one. On Friday, yesterday, the awards were handed. And as everyone predicted, Won Bin (yes, Aili!) got the award for the Most Popular Actor as well as for the Best Actor. Which is debatable considering Jeong Jaeyoung had also a nice movie this year... Let's fight!
Official Website 

Ignorance is a bliss!!

   Just had to printscreen it. OK, here's the article:

And now my usual rant, because I have this unsettling feeling that I have to give a reason why I write about this fact and not about, ie. another meeting of divided families between North and South Korea.
We, who after some time found our way to Korean entertainment, usually feel like neglected children. We have to put up with idiotic websites that don't allow foreigners to subscribe (yes, you KNG Official Asia!!), we are dramas deprived, movies deprived, events deprived. All we know we owe to ourselves and our comrades in those hard times.
Yes, we are fans, but "shadow fans", they perhaps know about us, but they can't grasp us.

Upcoming movies: November

    I know I should do many other things, but instead, I'm hanging around here and there, D-A is working again, so... In November we will (ekhem... Koreans will) get few new movies of every genre. A comedy, a thriller and drama. Two of them caught my eyes, No Doubt and Festival. The latter is actually a blind choice - because of Shin Hakyun in it. I miss him and Harvest Villa, although it had its funny moments, wasn't that funny at all. I saw the preview for it in some movie show, and except for some racy scenes, there is his face...

THIS will replace Seongkyunkwan...

... in the timeslot, definitely not in my heart. It will imprint an indelible stain in my mind though. Am I biased? Maybe. I will watch the first episode with as much indifference as I can muster up, but if I don't like it, no hordes of mad fans can convince me otherwise. And it's not like I will watch it with a bias already. Now I'm biased toward every single photo I saw, but it may all vanish when I see the actual drama. So... "don't put your religion on me, pal!". But I usually don't drag. If I don't like the drama after the first episode, I don't continue.

My First...

 
... big time with Photoshop...
Eh, I'm still lacking, but to satisfy your curiosity (eh??) what am I doing over those lonely, cold hours just before the dawn... This.

Life Is Beautiful-gate part ...

  This is the lady that created all this hell out there. The screenwriter, the beautiful mind, versatile tongue and imagination transcending the narrow and bordered horizons of others. This lady, Kim Suhyeon, wrote on 23rd that she felt as if SBS smashed her face with a wet rag. The reason? Oh, the reason is always the same, ever since few months: a couple. The scene in the episode that was aired was supposed to include Taeseob and Keongsu scene where they seal their confession in the church attending the wedding ceremony of Hoseob. Their scene was cut.
Apparently the people of the church on Jejudo where the scene was filmed filled the complains against showing the scene. Kim Suhyeon explained that she has no idea why and was enraged by the outcome.
But there is one funny fact. Actually the broadcast station wanted to air the episode the way it was written, but after such complaints, bosses changed their minds. I mean, are they really that soft? Complaints of some hypocrits against a huge base of approving voices? Where is the logic in it? Why did they yield? In fear of losing the viewers on Jejudo? Hell, everyone knows SBS is not my favorite station, but LIB was the last hope I had for them. I kind of admired them that despite all the flames of fury, idiotic Mothers Union ads and all, they can withstand all this.
