#dramathon1

#dramathon1 is over! Want to know how I did? Here are my stats and thoughts 🙂 #asiandrama

Hello! It is the 15th of August and #dramathon1 ended 10 hrs ago for me. I did not stay up that late because I am an old lady, but here is my wrap up! (more…)

Update:

I still have 2 episodes of Painless left, but I’m excited to finish it. It most definitely is not what I was expecting and I was definitely not expecting who the murderer was that Hayase was looking for!

Yesterday, I wanted a break from the crime/medical genre, so I ended up starting Full House Thai. The first episode was actually rather boring… However, drunk Aom-am on the plane was hilarious! And that made me want to continue. I ended up watching 4 episodes and it was getting so cute and I’m really enjoying the main leads interactions. Also! I would most definitely have gone to the police if someone had tricked me into selling my house, no matter who they were!

And now for the Challenge!

12th August! (Day 9):

Write dating profiles for a character/s of your choice.

After (hopefully) you’ve seen a couple of the dramas and gotten to know a few characters, I thought it would be a fun to make dating profiles for some of the characters! 

Hayase-san

The Basics:

Interested in: A sensei who tries to keep me in check and who I look up to and always find myself going to their house. Something like this (i.e. their must be sexual tension!):

Ethnicity: Japanese

Body Type: I’m short.

Story:

“I’m a detective who is very high strung and could potentially kill someone. I mean I won’t because I’m a detective, but it’s a possibility… Also, I’m like a little firecracker and get angry a lot.”

Perfect Match:

A rugged doctor who gets babysat by his sister-in-law and tells me I could become a murderer. Nothing too specific.

Ideal Date:

Solving crime with a hot doctor.

Aom-am

The Basics:

Interested in: Men who make me laugh and don’t mind me getting super happy and invasive when I’m drunk. Oh and I talk and act out my plot ideas, they have to be okay with that.

Ethnicity: Thai

Body Type: Short and cute :3

Story:

“I live in my family home with my sister, although at the moment I can’t find her and instead I’m having to deal with this arrogant superstar who bought my house. MY HOUSE WASN’T FOR SALE! I want to write a script that everyone will love and the South Koreans will make a remake drama of!”

Ideal Date:

Romantic and with food close by.

Plans for Today and Tomorrow:

Finish Painless: The Eyes For Signs.

You have 2 episodes left Hayleigh you can do it! \(^o^)/

Get to at least Episode 10 in the next two days ^^

Thank you for reading! Happy drama watching~

Update + Plans for Today:

I have now watched 6 episodes of Painless: The Eyes for Signs and wow this is not what I was expecting at all! I should probably have looked more into it, but hey ho. This is less of a medical drama and more of a crime drama, with a medical twist and it’s so good! All of the characters are very intriguing and not everything is as it seems.

Hopefully I can finish Painless today because my family are out and I have peace! My house has been rather chaotic this last week because my stepmum’s grandchildren are visiting.

And then start on Full House Thai tomorrow ^^

Also, I went to Brighton for the day on Tuesday, which was so much fun, but I couldn’t do any drama watching. Here are a few pics of my day there:

Challenge:

10th August! (Day 7):

Try and screenshot the derpiest face on the characters of your choice.

Actors and actresses in dramas are generally always so handsome and beautiful! So pausing while a beautiful person is talking, eating or moving can have funny outcomes!

I tried so hard while watching the last episode of Painless I saw this morning to screenshot a derpy face and it’s so much harder than I thought it would be!! ㅠ.ㅠ Suffice to say, I completely failed!

I’ve been having a good time with this dramathon and these challenges, even if I’m bad at them! Hopefully, I can do well, but I’m pretty happy with my progress and that’s all that matters! 🙂

Thank you for reading! Happy drama watching~

Update:

It is currently Monday and day 4, but I am preparing this post in advance because I am not going to have access to my laptop or the internet tomorrow. I am going on a day trip to Brighton with a friend!

Therefore, at this point in time I have only watched 2 episodes of Painless: The Eyes for Signs… by this evening, I will probably be halfway through (which would be on episode 5) because it is surprisingly very interesting. The premise that our main lead can diagnose what is wrong with you by just looking is impressive, but he can also determine if a person will/wants to kill – extra impressive!

Challenge:

And now for the Challenge! Of course because I’m doing this early, the episode I’m using for this challenge is episode 1 ^^

8th August (Day 5):

Screenshot your favourite scene of the episode you are currently watching.

There are wonderful scenes, be they funny, heartwarming or just beautifully shot, in dramas. This drama is simply to share those that you really like! 

Firstly, Tameyori’s face is priceless and it made me laugh haha ^^” I also really like his and Kazu-san’s relationship. She is his sister-in-law and they work/live together at his local clinic and I love that they get on and support each other and joke around (although it’s mostly Kazu-san that makes fun of him haha). 

Another scene I really liked was this one (it’s a funny one too! I think someone has the hots for the hospital director who operated on them 😛):

Thank you for reading! Happy drama watching~

Another day of the #dramathon1 and another post and challenge is here! #asiandrama

Hello! It is day 3 of #dramathon1 and I’m having a pretty good time all on my own haha ^^” (more…)

Plans For Today:

My plans for today are rather simple:

Watch Episode 16 of Secret Forest – I need to watch this, and I put it off yesterday because episode 14 and 15 made me cry so much! Especially 14, writer-nim what did I do to deserve that?! haha

I’m going to be starting the WebDrama challenge first and I’m going to try and watch as much of  Wednesday 3:30pm as possible today.

What are your drama watching plans for today? I’m going to try and be active on the dramathon twitter, so if you want to chat about the dramas you are watching follow me @dramabinge10 🙂

4th August! (Day 1):

Think of a plot that has as many tropes in as possible!

Dramas are full of tropes that we love and hate, but can you think of a plot that has as many of them as possible? 

A young poor girl (who has the latest phone because duh that makes sense right?) finds herself dealing with a rude handsome young chaebol. She then finds out he is her new boss (the first day involves a lot of hiding behind desks and that one female friend you have in the office who gives no fucks and is hilarious, but then she probably spills coffee on him or something). Our female lead probably does all the jobs no one wants to and gets into trouble when someone palms there work to her but doesn’t tell her, so she and chaebol boss spend all night sorting it out, of course he puts his jacket over he when she falls asleep (because our lead only does nice things when she isn’t there or is unconscious!) and they both wake up next to each other. They start to fall in love and we get a backstory for the chaebol that his brother died in an accident – low and behold so did the parent/s of our female lead – and he thinks it’s his fault, but it isn’t. Then his mother/aunt is a bitch and blames it on our female leads parent/s and this causes them to break up, but then they find out it wasn’t their fault and they live happily ever after because our chaebol stands up to his mother/aunt. Also there is probably a cute grandparent in this mix and lots of backhugs and at some point an awkward kiss scene.

So, what do think about this drama? Tropey enough or could you add some more to this mix? I’m pretty I would watch this though haha ^^”

I’d love to see what you came up with, so link me to your post if you do one or use the comments to pitch the most trope filled drama you can imagine!

Thank you for reading~
