I didn’t actually watch Extraordinary You, sweetie. |D But have an attempt!

----

Haru ignores the body that is pressing more and more into his personal space, almost pushing his arm now - he will not let Do Hwa ruin the intricate pattern he’s writing into the clay heart again. It ought to be perfect, with rainbow glaze he plans to apply reminiscent of paper chain he put around Dan Oh’s neck a literal lifetime ago.

“This is really unfair,” his friend complains, though the whole ceramics class so they could make cute gifts for their girlfriends had been his idea. “Why are you so good at everything?”

“If you want me to help, just say it outright,” Haru tells him plainly, but Do Hwa only scoffs. “No, I must make it myself for Ju Da!” Haru’s mouth curls up in a faint smile. 3...2..1..

“But maybe you could give me a tip. Just one!”

If you want a ramble about Jae, a ramble about Jae you will get!

On first night of really getting into Day6 content, I watched a lot of his vlog videos with a friend who first knew his vlog. And by end of his dance one, where he’s talking with BM how they both tried to look more like each other, he gives the surprised giggle and smile and my heart just?? Lurched somehow?? He was so cute and I just melted?? And that’s so rare a reaction from me, I legit went ‘oh shit’.

And it brings me to one of main things I love about him: while he is known as ‘meme’ and generally a funnyman, what really makes my heart go moosh over him is his genuinity. There is so much love and thoughtfulness in him, and love for his members and what he does.

In a video that got taken down, he spoke about how being on Weekly Idol made him realize flaws in his hosting style and next behing-ASC he asked Jimin how to improve and I just... He really is constantly thinking and judging himself, looking how to incorporate things that will make him a better person and worker.

Even recently, he spoke about his guitar skills as something that he finds more and more lacking by the day and will work hard to improve and I just?? Kind of teared up, because, honestly, it’s too cruel a judgement and he’s a great guitarist.

But I can never have enough of his laugh that shakes his whole body, when his whole face beams with delight when he gets what Sungjin is explaining to him or he loses it at general randomness and wackiness of his band mates. How he isn’t afraid to look silly. How he speaks about bullying he’s went through and what a tough battle it is to overcome, even years later. How he admits Korean is hard, but has improved so much (it gives me heartache how he is only confident when he’s joking, but never praises himself when he’s doing a heartfelt speech), how he lets others know how much they mean to him.

His tweets often hit where it hurts the most, among all the humor is a man who knows sleepless nights and pain of never feeling enough, but always wants you to know you are more than enough and to not give up. I can only imagine how much strength it took to endure 7 years as trainee, to be thrown in the craziness that was Day6 dynamics in early days. I really respect and admire him and everything he’s growing up to be. And his genuinety will always make my heart trip up.

This went longer than intended, but here you go!

omg i’m literally watching healer rn and I’m only on episode 9 but here’s what I know so far

Eeee thank you!

11. Trope People Love That You Hate

This isn’t exactly a trope but I hardly ever experience Second Lead Syndrome. If I don’t like the main couple in a drama that focuses on romance then I probably will drop it, and if I like the main couple then there is no reason to get second lead syndrome! Lol. Also, I find that even the male second leads that are portrayed as “nice guys” are often manipulative and possessive, even though they aren’t as obvious about it as most female second leads. In general I’m always on the heroine’s side first and foremost, though, so I am happy as long as she is happy.

The only SLS I can recall really experiencing was in School 2015. WE COULD HAVE HAD IT ALL, WRITER! YOU LITERALLY HAD A SET OF TWINS AND TWO LOVE INTERESTS. EUN-BI COULD HAVE GOTTEN TAE-KWANG! /endrant

16. Trope You Know You Should Hate But Love Anyways

Ooh, I can’t think of one. I suppose Hidden Identity? Because it involves so much deception, I really probably shouldn’t love it, but I do when it’s done well!

19. Trope You’d Most Like To Experience Yourself

Oooooh! Something skinship-y! You know, can I choose handholding/offering? I feel like it’s not a traditional trope but after all the hands in First Life and the ending of episode 6 of Just Between Lovers it’s all I can think about!!! 

Especially if I can link hands with Nam Se-hee

sorry to bother you (love your blog!) but I'm just curious why some people (lots of my kdrama blogs) use tags #1 #2 #3 #4 #5? What's it mean? I'm dying to know ;-) (ps. my sideblog is kdramaxoxo but tumblr only lets me comment with my main blog ;-)

I’m not gonna lie, I didn’t expect kdrama prompts, but! I, too, miss Scarlett.

I’d shade an actual drama here, but she does seem like a Makjang fan and I’ve not watched any, so this is non-specific drama.

---

“Another amnesia plot?” Scarlett screeches beside you, her nails digging into your hand, but you don’t really mind or notice because you’re swept up in equally outraged emotions.

“And we haven’t even gotten a kiss in-between! 10 whole episodes!” you add, exasperated. “I was so sure this would be the week, but no!” Scarlett has let go now and is pacing in front of TV where ads have begun playing.

“What if he’s just faking it, so his family would get off her back?”

You gasp, scandalized. “He wouldn’t! ... Would he?”

And the rest of the evening slips by with eagerly eaten snacks and discussions of all the possible and unlikely twists the absurdly enticing show might take.

When the next week comes, you are both proven right just as much as wrong.

Omg did u make that header gif? It’s so magical ✨

The mobile header one? No! Amazing @yongguks did! All of their headers are as you said - magical! I can only dream of being even 1/3 that good one day.
