Every character needs a proper sendoff… here’s a little ode to Yona, just in case Hongdae is the last we’ll ever see of her. Translating this brilliant drama-comic “Yona in Ssangri” from DC,’s Kill Me Heal Me Gallery, also affectionately known as 미미갤 (“me-me gal”).
Do go and click on the “recommend” in remembrance of yona… call?

“Hi, I’m Ha Jung Woo…”
“I thought hard about what stories that would be good to share about myself. After some effort, I finally decided to talk about my childhood, as well as my plans for the future. I’m currently involved in the promotion activities for the recently opened “The Berlin File”, while also filming “The Terror Live”. Erm.. With the last portion of filming remaining, I guess by the time this article is published, the filming should have ended already. The movie is expected to open this year, it is a movie with a similar feel as “Phone Booth” and “127 Hours”. Following “The Berlin File”, I hope you will support for this upcoming movie too. And now I shall start on my stories. And of course I extend my gratitude towards your support for “The Berlin File”, and I hope you will continue showing your support.
In reply to that, many of you may say, “You should be satisfied with what you have achieved so far”, but compared to (the successes attained by) people who have poured in so much blood and tears, I wish to be better than what I am now. Haha.”

Section TV visits Ha Ji Won at the Empress Ki filming set for their 700th episode, awarding the actress a “lifetime achievement award” for her appearances in the program since it was launched in 1999. In return, the actress presents (her mother’s) handmade mega pepero sticks to the MC, as well as her co-workers on the set…
“아직 수업이 끝나지 않았습니다…”
While I’m all for IU-JJS’s budding love line, bread, fried chicken and sister heroines in this drama, I still can’t help agreeing with
this article, by Senior Reporter Yoo In Kyung for Sports Kyunghyang.
(edit: added the latest video on top.)
Now I finally realized what’s missing in the skydiving scenes… (the wind), and how they did this ingenious day-to-night scene (below)
Whereas there were many other scenes which I took for granted …
– especially in sageuks. Saguek CG should be a genre on its own, and I believe the MBC guys have one entire CG library of sageuk objects~ ^^;
Happy ( last days of the ) Old Year~ ^^/
Thanks again to the memories re-visited, via Park Hye Jin onni’s radio corner~ ^^
Part of the Dae Jeon Drama Festival (http://djdf.org/wordpress/), award recipients are chosen irrespective of station nor ratings, featuring works from Oct 1 2011 till Oct 31 2012. This generous timeframe enables the nominations of actors and actresses from Tree with Deep Roots to Nice Guy, where some, like Han Ji Min, appeared in multiple dramas. Han Ji Min is nominated from her efforts in both Rooftop Prince (MBC) and Padam Padam (JTBC). Answer Me 1997 (tvN) won much as leads Seo In Guk and Jung Eun Ji received the Best OST, Best Couple and Rising Stars awards. Interestingly, recognition was also given via the Baddie Award (Yoon Yong Hyun), Best Manager Award (Kim Jong Do) and Action Set Award (Gaksital).
Drama of a drama about drama, Hyun Min tweeting Siwon being Hyun Min..?
Many of you asked about English subtitles … one of you asked “What is the Romantic?” My guess is that The Romantic is airing internationally now in certain countries, it’s pretty popular, and I can only hope CJ E&M, parent company of channel tvN (Korean | English) will provide the subtitles on their youtube channels.
The Romantic is a variety show where single Korean guys and girls embark on a short trip to Croatia (Season 1) and Turkey (Season 2) and get to know each other. Besides going on dates, the production team gives them “missions” to fulfill, and they are made to comment and confess their feelings throughout the show, either individually to the camera, or face to face with all other participants. The entire show is shot and produced with beautiful cinematography, PD Lee Myung Han (creator of KBS 1 Night 2 Days) touts it as “a variety more romantic than a movie”.

Here’s a translation of an article written by comedian Jung Tae Ho, also known as “Jung Yosa” or “Madame Jung”, the owner who brings Brownie around asking for shopping refunds. From Naver News’ Star Column – “24 Hours of Gag Con” by Jung Tae Ho”, edited by Hwang Tae Hee.
There’s been increased interest in The Romantic lately, so I wondered how I can help within my means ~ ^^ ; There aren’t many websites or information about the show either. I stumbled upon The Romantic’s naver tvcast (beta) channel, and decided the little I can do is to translate some of the descriptions here… Enjoy~~

Golden Time 골든타임 OST Part 8

Golden Time isn’t the greatest of dramas, it’s not that inspiring per se, and when yet another victim suffers a “creative” mish-mash of multiple injuries so as to illustrate hospital disunity, it just seems too convenient.
I love the OST though, it reminded me of Pasta (Yes, both OSTs are by Every Single Day)
And then I realized lead actors Lee Seon Gyun and Lee Sung Min were from Pasta too, and so did PD Kwon Suk Jang. Scriptwriter Choi Hee Ra hails from OB/GYN (SBS, 2010) and I admit I preferred that drama to Golden Time. At least patients had stories in OB/GYN. Are trauma victims less deserving of a story?
Despite the plot, Lee Seon Gyun and Lee Sung Min are excellent~ The fact that Pasta’s “chep” and Golden Time’s most neurotic intern are by the same actor — I’m amazed at Lee Seon Gyun’s acting range. And of course, every Korean medical drama has a hero – Lee Sung Min takes over the baton from Brain’s Shin Ha Kyun. ^^ Here’s a 명장면 (“memorable scene”) from ep 5~
