MmmMMMMM lastly... I want your top 5 dramas otps & what makes them Your Fave.

okay I’m going to take into consideration that this just says otps and not just romantic SOOOOOO :D

Kang To/Shunji (Gaksital)

Though the drama was basically showing how they progress from friends to enemies, the whole time you can see how much they still care for each other. Their whole relationship is just tragic and I cry for them. And from the moment Shunji finds out Kang To is Gaksital, everything after is so heart wrenching? I think it’s the fact that they started the drama as such close friends and to see them slowly grow apart while simultaneously trying to hold onto the other as much as they can is extremely sad. But it makes for great television!

Best scenes:

Ep7: The bicycle scene: A nice way to just rip out your heart.

Ep22: When Shunji finds out Kang To is Gaksital. kjadshbf it’s obvious he knew long before but uGH his EYES when it’s actually confirmed. It just broke me heart.

Ep25:

• “You, whom I liked even better than my own brother, who was at one time my only friend!”

• "Thank you for catching me. Now that I’m caught I won’t have to kill you with my own hands.” OKAY WOW @ THE TEARS

Joo Won and Park Ki Woong absolutely killed their roles and I loved them whenever they were on screen apart but especially when they were together (Please film another drama together! That cameo in Good Doctor was just :’’’D)

Ko Yi Suk/Hong Do (Heart to Heart)

The biggest reason that I love these two is because of how good they were for each other and what they learned from the other as they spent more time together. They basically began to heal each other. These two lonely people just came together and loved each other and :’’’’)

Best Scenes:

Ep4: Ep4 in general made me love the show and these two together but once it got to that ending scene i was sold. These two had my heart. It’s such a perfect scene. they’re both so lonely in that moment but they’re together ahshhhh. When she strokes the back of her hand with her finger i mean!!!!

Ep5: The morning after scene will never fail to make me squeal and just smile out of happiness. It’s just such a nice intimate moment and they’re both so comfortable there with each other 😭

Ep10: When Yi Seok just yells out his love for Hong Do at her house!!!! He’s just so in love!!

All their scenes together are beautiful and nice and amazing. But I’m restricting my fave scenes to only 3 😩

Je Ha/Yoo Jin (The K2)

BLESS THEM. I went into the drama not expecting to love these two together at all so it literally just hit me out of nowhere. The moment when they first meet in Yoo Jin’s house. THE TENSION?? WHEW! Song Yoon Ah and Ji Chang Wook’s chemistry was just crazy. I love that they were two people who were basically enemies deciding to work together  to achieve their own goals. I don’t care what anyone says they totally came to care about one another in their own ways and it’s just so obvious in everything they did/said. Gosh, I loved them :(

Best scenes:

Ep3: When Je Ha saves her from the fire. When she reaches out her hand when they’re taking her away from him. Anyway this is the scene when I just Knew that I was going to be in deep.

Ep5: “I definitely didn’t press the button twice. But he knew that I needed him anyway.”

Ep10: “Je Ha ya… If you find yourself in a situation that’s too dangerous, it’s okay if you just come back.” GOD

I made a fanvid for them. That’s how far in I was!!!!

Anyway…

Belle Epoque Girls (Age of Youth)

If they weren’t here it wouldn’t be right. Anyway!! I got so attached to these girls. I made a huge post for KWW about why I love them here. But basically I love how these 5 strangers really came together to care and love each other.

Also, I’m restricting this to S1.

Best Scenes:

Ep6: When Ji Won dresses up as Wonder Woman. They just had so much fun during this little sequence it was so cute :’’D

Ep8: When the girls knock Jong Yeol out because they heard Eun Jae scream! An iconic scene that I’ll never get tired of watching. They just look out for each other :’)

Ep12: When the girls just hug Eun Jae after she disappeared for the night and Yoon Sunbae says; “It’s okay now because you’re back.”

Toma/Sebumi (Keizoku 2: Spec)

Okay, this isn’t a kdrama but I have to include them because they’re just so GOOD. I can’t even really explain it but you have to watch the dramas (and the movies/specials!!) to understand yknow??

Best Scenes:

I forgot when many of these things happened & if it was during the drama or the movies so please forgive me since I can’t be precise with when it happened. Please help me if you know though!

Ep5: On the rooftop. It’s just such a nice moment they share and I just LOVE THEM

When Sebumi tells Toma, “You’re the only light” OHMYGOSH???????? WOW

“For me, who had seemed to have fallen into darkness this time, Sebumi san was my light.” !!!!!!!!!!!!!

anyway the pairing of our Generation!!

Hee Jin/Boong Do (Queen In Hyun’s Man)

Okay I know you said 5, but I just realized that I forgot to add these two and I just have to! I think my favorite thing about Hee Jin and Boong Do is that they weren’t necessarily fated to meet or anything and that could easily have been the premise for something like this when one of them jumps through time. They kind of just happened to meet and fell in love. And what a beautiful love story it was :’) I loved that their love became something so deep that they could just feel that the other person was there even when everyone else forgot or they had lost their memory of their other. I don’t know it’s just so great that their love became so strong! Yoo In Na and Ji Hyun Woo just were perfect together. I can’t imagine anyone else playing these characters.

Best Scenes:

End of ep4/Ep5: The library kisses!!! They had the best kisses and Hee Jin gave the best excuses for them to kiss and this was just!!! so cute!!!

Ep16: The split screen when they’re in two different times, but the same place (PERFECT OST) And I think this is the perfect scene to illustrate how deep their love goes when Hee Jin just starts crying in the middle of her narration.

Basically anytime they meet in the red phone booth :’’)

What are your Thoughts on what makes a good kdrama????

Ohhhh wow okay. This is hard. I don’t really know how to articulate things like this. I actually don’t have a lot of criteria? But the dramas that I am very attached to and love have:

A great otp/great relationships b/w characters: It doesn’t have to be romantic, but I think I always enjoy watching a drama where I can see the characters come together. I just enjoy all types of relationships because I think they’re really important for people and can show us who we are and also help us in life whether they’re familial, romantic or platonic. So to show a good relationship and how it affects people in a drama can be hard, but it’s one of my favorite things to see.

Tears/Sadness: I gotta explain this lol. It’s when the drama presents a story for the characters that I feel like I can relate to in a way or because of something they go through that deeply resonates. My favorite dramas have made me cry at least once (many of them 3+ times) and have made me feel that deep stir in my heart. It’s so real and that makes it even sadder.

Writing/Good Story: As a writer, I want to be able to see something and think ‘Wow. This is amazing and I wish I had thought of it or written it.” Either that or it gets me in the mood to write because I want to be at that level one day. Tbh, it’s hard for me to articulate how I feel a good story should be written. I just feel like I know when I see one in a drama and when I don’t. This also includes good characters: They don’t have to be necessarily likable, but relatable or written in a way that I can understand where they are and follow their path to wherever they end up.

I think have to have all of these together to make it a good drama. So these are a few examples if I couldn’t explain it well enough:

Misaeng; We had Sales Team 3 as well as the Interns which made for a great relationship that we saw progress through the drama. Not much happened, but it was written well and even now, when I write, I think of Misaeng mainly because the tone of my stories go toward that direction in tone. It also makes you feel that stir in your heart, something that hits close to home.

Dear My Friends: Basically the same as Misaeng. The relationship between all the women. It’s peak writing for kdramas as well, imo

H2H: This was not a perfect drama by any means, but it has an amazing otp, there are scenes that tug at my heart (Ep15 when Yi Seok is talking to Hong Do in the office but she doesn’t hear him :( Later in that ep when they see each other after so long and just relax in each other’s arms just !!) Again, this isn’t a perfect story, but it does make me want to write and has flawed characters that I like.

5 & 22!!!!!!!!!!!!

5. Has fandom ever ruined a pairing for you?

Probably So and Soo from Scarlet Heart. After that kiss and seeing so many people defend it, etc. I was like errr. It wasn’t completely ruined bc of fandom bc I was starting to dislike the pair myself for reasons but it was totally a big part.

22. Popular character you hate?

Maybe So from Scarlet Heart. I didn’t like hate him but I didn’t love him like most people lol. Also probably Anna from K2. Idk how well liked she was but I really disliked her character

There’s a hilarous (embarassing) story behind this gif set. I made it a month ago. When SIG’s military enlistment news came out, you quoted the tweet by saying “why is is this happening two days after my birthday”. I PANICKED, thinking I had missed your birthday. Truthfully, my plan was to ask for the date all along, but I really thought I had missed the oppurtunity, Lord. But it’s the 26th of March today, and it is your birthday, Jenna. I somehow found out without asking you.

I remember when I first followed you on twitter (without having read your about me loool), and being so nervous about whether you’d accept the request or not. I’m glad you did, because I found such a good friend in you. I’m *sniffs* sorry I can’t always be there for you, but you are always, always in my thoughts, and my well wishes and prayers will always be with you. Ily, friend, and here’s to many, many more conversations of no sense and occasional serious talk.

You’re my favourite Day6 stan. Happy birthday, bby ♡ (@hattiehargrove - @sebumis)

[ginkamon]

hattiehargrove replied to your post “wow i missed kww by so much omg. i’m wondering if i should still make...”

omg really?? okay!! if you do it, i’ll do it too :D probably next weekend. i have my list it’s just sitting down and creating/writing something lol

[banghae]

Happy birthday, Jenna love (@sebumis/@hattiehargrove)!!!

JAHAkdhKDsl this feels so rushed, but I didn’t want to not post anything on your birthday, so forgive me1!! ;____________; HAPPY BIRTHDAY, FRIEND. I HOPE HAVE A WONDERFUL DAY AND WEEK I KNOW YOU SAID YOU’RE BUSY, BUT I DO HOPE MOST OF YOUR WEEK GOES TO BEING BUSY IN A GOOD WAY YOU KNOW! I am very grateful for having you in my life. When I look at certain things or people, they remind me of you and immediately message you because talking to you makes me happy. We’ve known each other 2-3 years, and through those years, you have increasingly become a source of joyfulness. I feel like I don’t express it enough, but thank you for being my friend! I hope we’re friends for another 100 years etc.

I was trying to decide on what to gif, so I started looking up Jang Hyuk photoshoots, but ended up finding this Lee Gun clip instead and akdklsj it was too good to pass on. This is half for jokes, half serious because it’s the man you stan.

HAPPY BIRTHDAY AGAIN I’M OFF TO TWEET YOU :DDD
