Yuletide

Sign-ups are open, yay! I’m waiting with singing up till this weekend, since I want to watch Mandate finale first. But my Yuletide letter is already written. Well, the section for Mandate is still unfinished, but even without that my letter already has 2200 words, oops. 😊 Yes, I am using a new request limit almost to the fullest and asking for 7 fandoms.


Typhoon Family

This is Junho’s new drama, and it’s very good. Or at least the first two episodes were very good. And the 2nd episode made me cry a bit. But despite a few sad moments it is a very warm, lovely and occasionally funny drama about a carefree young man, who has his life turned upside down when his father suddenly passes away. It’s the year 1997 and Asian Financial Crisis hits, and Kang Tae Pung has to work hard to save the company his father build.

Junho is fantastic and he looks gorgeous. Kim Min Ha is absolutely wonderful as the female lead. I’m already very invested. And I’m so glad that with this and The Murky Stream I have two good kdramas to watch now. And that I like the main het couple in both dramas a lot, after being so underwhelmed by Bon Apetit, Your Majesty in that regard.


Fanvids

This fanvid titled “The Best KDrama Dads” is lovely and beautiful, and it made me teary-eyed.



And these two Affair fanvids are wonderful, beautiful, sexy and sweet. And very NSFW.




Last, but not least – I love this pic of Gun and Dew from Burnout Syndrome’s shooting.



That height difference, wow... 😍 Also, let them kiss, show, at least once, I’m begging you.

I'm loving Typhoon Family, too! It's distracting because I find Junho so swoony, but my partner and I are watching it together, and it's so good! I love how much dancing they crammed into episode 1, lol. :D And now I'm making grabbyhands for more!!

That dads vid was just an excuse to put Lee Dong-wook + baby (and Lee Joon-gi + baby) to music, wasn't it? Heeee! <3 <3 <3 (What drama was the Lee Dong-wook one? I don't think I've seen any of those shows!)

Lee Dong Wook + baby is from that prequel to The Tale of Nine Tailed, I think?

Oh, okay, thanks! We started that but got bored.

:D :D :D

I really want to sign-up for Yuletide but I think it would be a really bad idea given my track record this year.

Hey, at least I can feel the excitement second-hand from all my mates signing up and shake the pom poms!

I love the festive nature of it and the way it connects so many diverse parts of fandom in a way that nothing else really does!
