WhooshYou know you’re invested when you’re yelling, “B!tch, b!tch!!” at your tablet & you have to walk away before you hit the screen.
This is agony.
KDramaQn 🍷⚽️🎬📚🇨🇦🇬🇧Oh no! What episode have you finished? The styling etc. is so very much of it's time, 2009, it is almost cringe worthy but it was the kdrama gateway for many 😂
So cringe-worthy! I was having a hard time getting into it because the female characters are so one dimensional & generally clueless, but by episode 21, I am hooked and emotionally invested.
I thought I should watch because of its “classic” status. I’m glad I am - I have recognized so many references back to this show from other dramas now.
Just popped onto NFx to view ep 21 and now I know why you want to scream B!tch 😂
Some of the acting is soooo bad like the guy trying to squeeze out a tear with grandpa at the lake. You can see how Lee Min-Ho became such a big star.
Quite a few references in other shows for sure. The original Japanese version has been remade made times and in many countries. A quite good version, with a few differences, is the Mandarin 2018's Meteor Garden also on NFx.
Perfectly reasonable response to eps. 21, right?
It’s so fun to watch 10+ year old shows and you can just see the talent oozing out of certain actors - and sure enough they went on to become stars. I noticed that with Park Min Young & Song Joong Ki in Sungkyunkwan Scandal too.

Let me know if you want to schedule some watchparties for #CoffeePrince! I watched it when #LeeSunKyun was still alive, and his character was a favourite for me!

Mel@EllenInEdmonton @whoosh @hanktank61 @cinderdazzle612 @KDramaQn #coffeeprince is sooo much better preserved than #boysoverflowers ! Can certainly recommend, where I did not watch more than a few episodes of the Flower Boys, because, yeah.... #kdrama
@EllenInEdmonton @whoosh @hanktank61 @cinderdazzle612 @KDramaQn (that was a joke, it is really good for other reasons as well) 😃
Shaula Evans@mel @EllenInEdmonton @[email protected] @hanktank61 @cinderdazzle612 @KDramaQn If you haven't seen it yet, Kim Jae Wook makes a great appearance as a guest in Chef & My Fridge!
@ShaulaEvans @EllenInEdmonton @hanktank61 @cinderdazzle612 @KDramaQn Ha, thank you! I'm not so into reality shows, but maybe I don't know what I am missing, ha.
@mel @EllenInEdmonton @hanktank61 @cinderdazzle612 @KDramaQn Ah, then it may or may not be your cup of tea.
I'm not in reality shows at all either, but last year I started watching low key cooking shows from Korea because I'm studying Korean. There's some non-stressful, non-cutthroat cooking fare that I'm really enjoying. (Much to my surprise, I would never have guessed that I'd like this. lol)
@ShaulaEvans @mel @EllenInEdmonton @cinderdazzle612 @KDramaQn My thing ! Bookmarked. After all Korean/Asian cuisine has been influencing our eating-habits for years now. Not letting my 6x watching " Dae Jang Geum" go waste. Not 100% Korean, also all trad. Asia. I am the only one who likes Kimchi in our small group, Even our Thai DIL does not like it. But the basics, still learning. And, British/India-inspired Piccalilly is delicious too 🙂 . Homemade 54 % veggie instead of 33 % in commercial..
@hanktank61 @mel @EllenInEdmonton @cinderdazzle612 @KDramaQn I love kimchi but even mild spice doesn't work for my body, which is heartbreaking (and made eating in South Korea something of a challenge when I worked there).
But I am all about baek kimchi / white kimchi! After missing it for many years, I finally found some places I can order it online.
@hanktank61 @mel @EllenInEdmonton @cinderdazzle612 @KDramaQn Is there such a thing as spicy sauerkraut? I'm only familiar with mild.
