Love in Flames of War does have a captivating story despite the constant misunderstanding in the romance and a questionable female character. So, if you are open to more heartbreaking romance and see lovers’ suspicions and misunderstandings as normal, then this would be a great drama to watch. But if you see the quarrels as never-ending and pointless, this will become frustrating. I think you really need to enjoy Republican era dramas to love this because of the tragedies that are often depicted in that time setting. It is different from City of Streamer whereby the focus is on revenge rather than war and romance. It also doesn’t have the wittiness and schemings found in Fall In Love. Instead, Love in Flames of War has that typical message of patriotism with Japanese aggression being an important part of the plot apart from the romance. With war, comes deaths and separations, and the drama has plenty of those. After watching Love In Flames Of War Republican era Chinese dramas. This is the sort of role that Shawn Dou would fit into, suave army officer, separated from love, tragically reunited but conflicted. Hhmm... I wonder if he naturally gravitates to this kind of role? I've seen him in Princess Agents, Legend of Xiao Chuo, Tears in Heaven, and now here. They seem to have that kind of similarity.

Hello! It’s day one of the #dramathon2 and that means it’s time for the first challenge of the week 🙂

Favourite Supernatural Creature

Supernatural Creatures are a staple of the Halloween period. What’s your favourite/s?

Vampires! I will always choose vampires for this question. I love vampires, they are so varied and wonderful. When I was younger, about 11years old (maybe) I fell in love with the Vampirates series and also the Darren Shan saga (Larten Crepsley needs to be hugged because he is so precious and Darren Shan (the author) hurt me so much with what he did to him!).

I tend to read things with Vampires, rather than watch things with them in… BUT VAMPIRE PROSECUTOR!!! I WILL NEVER BE OVER HOW WE HAVEN’T GOT A SERIES 3 AND I DON’T KNOW WHAT HAPPENED TO MY BABIES AND WHETHER THEY ARE OKAY!!! 😭😭😭😭😭😭😭

Update

So far I haven’t watched any dramas because I only have reading week for one of my seminars… and I have an in class test tomorrow (save me!). However, on the theme of today’s challenge I watched The Vampire Lives Next Door with Park Jisung and Park Sodam. It was so good and really visually appealing~

Thanks for reading! Happy drama-watching~

#Dramathon1 Wrap Up!

#dramathon1 is over! Want to know how I did? Here are my stats and thoughts 🙂 #asiandrama

Hello! It is the 15th of August and #dramathon1 ended 10 hrs ago for me. I did not stay up that late because I am an old lady, but here is my wrap up! (more…)

Hello! It is day 9 of #dramathon1 and here is my update and challenge!

Update:

I still have 2 episodes of Painless left, but I’m excited to finish it. It most definitely is not what I was expecting and I was definitely not expecting who the murderer was that Hayase was looking for!

Yesterday, I wanted a break from the crime/medical genre, so I ended up starting Full House Thai. The first episode was actually rather boring… However, drunk Aom-am on the plane was hilarious! And that made me want to continue. I ended up watching 4 episodes and it was getting so cute and I’m really enjoying the main leads interactions. Also! I would most definitely have gone to the police if someone had tricked me into selling my house, no matter who they were!

And now for the Challenge!

12th August! (Day 9):

Write dating profiles for a character/s of your choice.

After (hopefully) you’ve seen a couple of the dramas and gotten to know a few characters, I thought it would be a fun to make dating profiles for some of the characters! 

Hayase-san

The Basics:

Interested in: A sensei who tries to keep me in check and who I look up to and always find myself going to their house. Something like this (i.e. their must be sexual tension!):

Ethnicity: Japanese

Body Type: I’m short.

Story:

“I’m a detective who is very high strung and could potentially kill someone. I mean I won’t because I’m a detective, but it’s a possibility… Also, I’m like a little firecracker and get angry a lot.”

Perfect Match:

A rugged doctor who gets babysat by his sister-in-law and tells me I could become a murderer. Nothing too specific.

Ideal Date:

Solving crime with a hot doctor.

Aom-am

The Basics:

Interested in: Men who make me laugh and don’t mind me getting super happy and invasive when I’m drunk. Oh and I talk and act out my plot ideas, they have to be okay with that.

Ethnicity: Thai

Body Type: Short and cute :3

Story:

“I live in my family home with my sister, although at the moment I can’t find her and instead I’m having to deal with this arrogant superstar who bought my house. MY HOUSE WASN’T FOR SALE! I want to write a script that everyone will love and the South Koreans will make a remake drama of!”

Ideal Date:

Romantic and with food close by.

Plans for Today and Tomorrow:

Finish Painless: The Eyes For Signs.

You have 2 episodes left Hayleigh you can do it! \(^o^)/

Get to at least Episode 10 in the next two days ^^

Thank you for reading! Happy drama watching~

  It's Day 9 of #dramathon1 and this was a pretty fun challenge even if it's not great haha ^^" Hello! It is day 9 of #dramathon1 and here is my update and challenge!

[dramarambles-blog]

It’s day 7 of the Dramathon! And to be honest I haven’t watched much since my last update, but here is my mini update and poor go at the challenge!

Update + Plans for Today:

I have now watched 6 episodes of Painless: The Eyes for Signs and wow this is not what I was expecting at all! I should probably have looked more into it, but hey ho. This is less of a medical drama and more of a crime drama, with a medical twist and it’s so good! All of the characters are very intriguing and not everything is as it seems.

Hopefully I can finish Painless today because my family are out and I have peace! My house has been rather chaotic this last week because my stepmum’s grandchildren are visiting.

And then start on Full House Thai tomorrow ^^

Also, I went to Brighton for the day on Tuesday, which was so much fun, but I couldn’t do any drama watching. Here are a few pics of my day there:

Challenge:

10th August! (Day 7):

Try and screenshot the derpiest face on the characters of your choice.

Actors and actresses in dramas are generally always so handsome and beautiful! So pausing while a beautiful person is talking, eating or moving can have funny outcomes!

I tried so hard while watching the last episode of Painless I saw this morning to screenshot a derpy face and it’s so much harder than I thought it would be!! ㅠ.ㅠ Suffice to say, I completely failed!

I’ve been having a good time with this dramathon and these challenges, even if I’m bad at them! Hopefully, I can do well, but I’m pretty happy with my progress and that’s all that matters! 🙂

Thank you for reading! Happy drama watching~

I can't believe it's already day 7 of #dramathon1 Where has the time gone?! Challenge/update ⌚ It's day 7 of the Dramathon! And to be honest I haven't watched much since my last update, but here is my mini update and poor go at the challenge!

[dramarambles-blog]

It’s day 5 of the Dramathon! It is the halfway point and I feel like I’m doing okay, so here’s a little update.

Update:

It is currently Monday and day 4, but I am preparing this post in advance because I am not going to have access to my laptop or the internet tomorrow. I am going on a day trip to Brighton with a friend!

Therefore, at this point in time I have only watched 2 episodes of Painless: The Eyes for Signs… by this evening, I will probably be halfway through (which would be on episode 5) because it is surprisingly very interesting. The premise that our main lead can diagnose what is wrong with you by just looking is impressive, but he can also determine if a person will/wants to kill – extra impressive!

Challenge:

And now for the Challenge! Of course because I’m doing this early, the episode I’m using for this challenge is episode 1 ^^

8th August (Day 5):

Screenshot your favourite scene of the episode you are currently watching.

There are wonderful scenes, be they funny, heartwarming or just beautifully shot, in dramas. This drama is simply to share those that you really like! 

Firstly, Tameyori’s face is priceless and it made me laugh haha ^^” I also really like his and Kazu-san’s relationship. She is his sister-in-law and they work/live together at his local clinic and I love that they get on and support each other and joke around (although it’s mostly Kazu-san that makes fun of him haha). 

Another scene I really liked was this one (it’s a funny one too! I think someone has the hots for the hospital director who operated on them 😛):

Thank you for reading! Happy drama watching~

It's the halfway mark of #dramathon1 and another challenge! #update #asiandramas #watchathon ☺ It's day 5 of the Dramathon! It is the halfway point and I feel like I'm doing okay, so here's a little update.
