[Staff Spotlight] Get to know Unit

Explain your username (and/or avatar).
One of my nicknames is Tiny which is similar to Unit when written in reverse. My avatar reminds me of the saying “drink water and mind your business.” But the woman’s eyes from over the cup look like she’s minding other people’s business, and I find that funny.

What is the first drama that you watched (or the first drama that made an impression)?
Boys Before Flowers. There was something fascinating about the language, the OST, and Gu Jun-pyo’s noodle hairstyle.

Name a job or two that you’ve had in the past.
Administrative officer.

Have you ever lived a moment that you thought belonged in a drama?
I once had a More Than Friends moment where I confessed to a male friend I really liked, and he politely turned me down.

What’s your favorite drama you recapped?
Considering it’s my first and only drama as of yet, Shooting Stars.

What drama genres do you especially like?
Rom-coms with an emphasis on the “com.”

What drama genres do you especially dislike?
I’m not particularly a fan of dramas with fantasy elements.

What drama character would you want to be?
Dr. Chae Song-hwa from Hospital Playlist, but without the tone deafness.

What’s a random skill you have?
Does my ability to sleep even in the noisiest of places count?

Favorite non-Korean movie and/or TV show?
Castle!

Which Hallyu celebrity would you actually want to meet and spend an hour with?
Kim Soo-hyun!!! We’ll have a masterclass on the art of crying heart-wrenching tears.

Your favorite drama has an unholy alliance with your most hated drama and produces a mutant baby drama. Describe the plot.
To escape from the police, a crooked accountant from Gunsan jumps into the Han river and wakes up in the bath tub of 7 Goryeo princesses. He is given a position in the royal treasury and ordered by the dowager to take down the left state minister and his evil minions. He enlists the help of the one-eyed 4th princess and a repentant minion, and they take down the evil minister. But on his wedding day, he is given the 14th princess with the awful bangs instead of the 4th princess. In the end, he slips into depression and dies, only to wake up in an ER in Seoul where a detective smiles at him through crooked teeth and waves a pair of handcuffs in his face.

Sleeping in noisy places! That's not a random skill, it's like a super power! I'm so jealous, lol.

Yes! Yes it does! Absolutely! I cannot express to you how much it counts!
As someone who can barely sleep in her own bed, let alone anywhere else, on a plane, on a train, in a car, with the fan on, with just SLIGHTLY too much light... people who can get to sleep anywhere awake a kind of (sometimes even angry! haha) jealousy in me I don't get for anything else lmaooo~

Also, that Castle Rep.

Everything but the tone deafness.
Your mutant baby drama concept is a fresh take. The ending, a comedy with a great comedic timing.

Castle definitely stopped at 5 in my head anyway. Actually it probably stopped at 3 if I was being extra hard on it haha.

Welcome @unit ! It's nice to have a new recapper!

Your favourite drama is a fantasy one with a jump in the time, isn't it?

@unit it’s lovely meeting you and I really enjoyed your shooting Stars recaps you brought me back when I wanted to walk away due to the rom com taking second place to a random plot.
I loved the mutant baby drama it captured the elements of the historical dramas that annoy me; jealousy amongst the multiple wives and children and the politics this summed up both those features perfectly.

Hello Unit! You've made an interesting mutant drama plot. I'm guessing its Mr Queen and Scarlet heart ryeo. But maybe not the former since Bong Hwan was a chef not an accountant.

Hi unit, I think it's safe to say I have been a fan since your first recap....cheers to more
Welcome onboard
So, question? How do you get politely turned down? How did you feel after that? I would have probably prayed the ground swallowed me at that point 😄
And your mutant baby is something I would definitely watch, once again welcome!!!.

"I really like you too, but only as a friend."

Or something like that. I don't like to relieve painful memories 😢

Thank you for Shooting Stars and here’s to many future recaps! 🥂
Your show profiles are identical to mine, rom-com+com not fantasy - but I would totally watch your mutant baby drama.

You did well with SHOOTING STARS, thank you.

I too love rom-coms also when they remember that they are supposed to be comedies. Some writers seem to forget that, resulting in disasters like SHY BOSS.
