(My favorite is the yellow and green dudes teehee :D)
So, my aunt and I started (and finished Rooftop Prince) in Japan :) 2-3 episodes a day with the exception of the last stretch, which we chionged in one night and became zombies the next day. Convinient for us though, cause the sky darkens early in Japan and night snowboarding there just scares the fuck out of me (more details on this later). Actually I get scared shitless the moment the slopes are empty unless I am incredibly familiar with the trail. Sorry I have no balls (literally).
So anyways back to Rooftop Prince :D the story was good. I enjoyed the storyline immensely, despite the fact that the idea of time traveling has been overused in recent dramas (with the likes of QIHM, Faith and etc.). Love the mystery element of the show - the urge to find out what truly happened in the past kept me going despite the dragginess of the drama (as seen in almost every Korean drama in the world).
Cannot stand the constant adverts in the show though, they were way too obvious and way too in-your-face.
And I still do not understand how I resemble Yoochun (and vice versa) tsk.
For an unknown reason, I am starting to find that recent dramas and movies lack that emotional element, the tug on my heartstrings at every sweet / sad part. I was starting to fear that my act of desentisizing myself was spreading to one of my biggest passions. Thank god though, fears were allayed when I started on Hotaru no Hikari :) loved that show, prolly gonna review on it later after I finish Season Two and the movie :D doing these reviews not because people read them (cause I am sure most people just scroll past these pointless comments) but more of allowing me to keep track on the dramas I have watched. In case ten years down the road I feel like reliving my teenage years, or whatever my old and ailing mind feels like doing then.
Speaking of which, today when Britney Spears' Oops I Did It Again played on Kiss 92FM (currently my favorite radio station, given that mainstream English is now full of bullshit),
Me: Britney Spears was my childhood know.
Mother: No, I think it was Teletubbies.
Heh.Labels: drama
