While we're talking K-Dramas

MAD  PROPS

to 1% of Anything for having the girl capable of giving herself a make-over (in a half-hour at most!) when she gets dissed.

This puts her in a very limited company. Most need their future boyfriends to do it for them...
Kyoko of Skip-Beat! is the only other to come to mind.

Also, mad props to the scriptwriters for having EVERYONE'S parents be embarrassingly conniving matchmakers!



I'm not at this point yet. They're still fighting all through they're enforced dates. 6_6

I WILL NOT LIE I have tried to read Skip Beat like five times and each time I get about twenty chapters in before I'm so bored I give up and go back to Ouran or whatever. :(

I have lost your trust so soon. T-T

Well, that's too bad, because you're missing out on one of the few shojo comics that refuses to fall into common plotting cliches.

But that happens! Something can just not be your thing...

I am completely absorbed by stories involving learning a craft, and show-biz behind the scenes is also a fascination of mine, so it hits a few of my interests besides reading.


The anime was a great adaptation, if you ever want the abbreviated version, but I have great fears for the Taiwanese live-action show. Newest rumor is to K-Pop stars are going to play the main guys, and I do not see how that can go well. Dubbing main characters? In this enlightened age?
