Wish Upon a Star, episodes 1-12

Remember when I was super gung-ho about “Will it Snow for Christmas”? Yeah, that fizzled out and died a very cold, snowy death. I won’t go into depth about its sad demise, but it went into psycho, melo territory and that’s when I knew I had to cut myself loose.

Currently: Cute, adorable, squishy little kiddos.

“Wish Upon a Star” is so much fun! And thus starts my 2010 of K-dramas. I can’t say that this is the most well-written drama, but the storyline and the acting make for a very painless watch, with lots of laughs thrown into the mix.

AND THE KIDS. THE KIDS ARE SO PRECTION.

What up, Globes

Best dressed ladies of the night:

Will it Snow on Christmas?, episodes 7 and 8

My ultimate Achilles heel with drama write-ups/recaps is that I’m so lazy, guys. I’m SO LAZY. The longer I put it off, the more I have to say, the less I feel inclined to write about it. Oh dear, what a vicious cycle…

This image isn’t from this episode, but isn’t this shot just great? Like I’ve said a million times, I would totally watch a teen drama version of “Will it Snow on Christmas,” with Nam Ji Hyun and Kim Soo Hyun. (And of course, an undead Song Joong Ki.)

Stuff I watched this year, part 1: Dramas of 2009

I watched many more dramas this year than I did the previous years. Maybe it’s because I didn’t find the music fandom too appealing so I turned to the drama fandom. Whatever the reason, I also ended up recapping two dramas and let me tell ya, it was like writing two 5000+ word papers every single week for two/three months, and the papers were due on consecutive days, always.

WHAT THE HELL.

The dramas I managed to finish in their entirety: Boys Over Flowers, You’re Beautiful, Brilliant Legacy, Triple, and an oldie, The Devil/Mawang.

The dramas that I tried to watch, but had to drop out of sheer boredom/ludicrousness: Japanese: Code Blue and Maou (remake of Mawang). Korean: Swallow the Sun, Hot-Blooded Salesman, and Partner.

The dramas I’m in the process of watching: Will it Snow for Christmas? and Black & White.

Will it Snow on Christmas?, episodes 5 and 6

It’s only ever when I recap that I realize I always have SO MUCH TO SAY about everything. Grrrr.

Cha Kang Jin, you’re so cool, I lub you.
