Flowers strike back: Moon/Sun edition

by javabeans

girlfriday: Well, this is an idea gone awry.

javabeans: Is…that…who I think it is? Well, that’s embarrassing.

girlfriday: Someone took “flower boy” way too literally. Those pants are just… wow.

javabeans: Look, just because they’re called “flower boys” doesn’t mean you have to represent every part of that etymology, in picture form.

girlfriday: But then what would you do with that trunk full of your grandma’s old hats that she used to wear to the Kentucky Derby?

javabeans: The easy answer? Bury them with her. So is the new name of this drama just going to have to be DayGlo Moonflower?

girlfriday: I think so. It’s still within the hippie parameters. Sunflower Raindance Moonshine and all. Er, wait, that’s a different thing. Moonshine just gets you drunk.

javabeans: Which is what the art directors must have been on this shoot. Although I say: King Hwon and his posse would never have been caught dead in this carnival getup.

girlfriday: It’s like a craft supply store threw up on them.

javabeans: And then they took pictures as evidence, should the need arise.

girlfriday: Blackmail’s a bitch.

javabeans: At least they’ve got the moon on their side.

drama title: Wall Flowers.

Very living room-inspired. Floral decor, check. Wallpaper, check. Couch fabric, check.

Looking at them makes me want to get a hot cup of choco, grab a book from my shelf, and then spend the entire afternoon curled up in my reading nook. ;)

My thought exactly.... Ahahahah !!!
First pic without the flowers hat is OK.
For 2nd and 3rd, did they pick up the clothes on the street an decided to make the worst combination ever ?
High Cut can do very nice pictures, but here... I will suggest they tried to get our attention by shocking us.
Yeah. Blackmail or stupid bet. One or the other.
Poor cute kids... * Throwing a blanket at them to preserve their pride *.

This is why you should never allow Mary Poppins anywhere near the liquor cabinet.

I was just thinkin the same thing for pic 3!!!

In any drama, everytime the guy and the girl get stuck out in the boonies but it magically starts raining or even though they're lookin in front of them they never seem to see the puddle they're about to step in. Those pant show up. Never fails. No one ever goes pantless!
(Darn pants!!!!)

Pic 4 i dont know what to say....... i prefer this fit over the barbershop quartet in pic 1! (i guess i do know what to say!)

I know a person who actually dresses like that, he is an artist and he drives a car painted in grafiti that has a radio on the roof that constantly plays "Don´t Worry, Be Happy!"
actually now I start to think the definition "flower boy / man" goes well for artists... Naive type of artists.
although I was a flower GIRL once, and it meant carrying roses in a wedding till your hands bled dry, and there was nothing hippie-romantic about it for a 5-year-old (you see, flower girls and boys had to be very young and very cute and no one cared about the sadistic outcome...

My dear ggrand-mother would love those hats for spring. I prefer them in street clothes with no make up.

Hope none of them are allergic to bees.
Clearly they aren't allergic to bad couture.

In other news, Yeo Jin Gu needs to grow up faster so I feel less creepy about finding him so charming.

Why is the Easter Parade so early this year?
And why does S. Korea fashion insist on feminizing their men?

Those flowered pastel pants are identical to the '70's wallpaper I thought would look so cool/retro in one of the bathrooms. Nope. It just looked '70's. Like those failed pants.

The problem here is not the boys, but the flowers which make them look too feminine. So the trick is to make them look hard and macho and trendy. I propose the
flowers be torn off at once, and replaced by one of the following:

1. A tree, preferably with lots of thick foliage and NO flowers.

2. Roots: choose those that are gnarled and coated with a layer of thick soil for an added 'dirty' appeal

3. A live SMALL animal, preferably a skunk or squirrel. Skunk hats would look really attractive with those daring black and white streaks, while a squirrel's bushy tail, arranged carefully to hang over one side, would make such a bold fashion statement. Roosters are also very striking with the myriad of colours displayed in those magnificent tail feathers.

Note: Live animals are preferred for that 'lively' look....just let skunk, squirrel or rooster imbibe soju before being mounted/draped/coiled onto/around hat. Animals will be intoxicated for the duration of the shoot and can be returned to their natural habitats at the end of the shooting session.
