I don’t know if you’re familiar with a website called “The Wayback Machine,” (https://archive.org/web/), but it’s a website that basically keeps an archive of what the internet looks like at random intervals. (It takes a screenshot, sort of, and stores it.) You can go through the wayback machine’s calendar and see what a particular webpage looked like, “way back when,” as it were.
I tell you this because one of the archived pages I found in the wayback machine was…the original list of beanie levels that DB had posted. The definitive list. The whole enchilada.
Pics are below, but before you scroll down, decide for yourself if you want to see all the levels; I don’t want to destroy the suspense if you are loving it. (Many thanks to @modernflapper for providing me with the exact link!!!!) (cc: @sicarius@greenfields@ally-le@neener@nightmoon)
(I have to admit, I was a little sad to see that the list sort of has an ending…I wanted it to keep going forever! Although, given how long it’s taking me to get out of Errand Boyhood, maybe it does go on forever, in essence. Heh. And who knows, maybe they have it set up so they can add more!) Anyway, without further ado:
I tried to make the pics bigger but could not; does db automatically resize images? were they too big originally or something? if its unreadable, let me know. xx
Depend. I’ve noticed that if you try upload a larger image off your device onto dB it often downsizes it’s immediate viewing size (you can click on it for an enlargement tho).
I often bypass this, if I want to share it big automatically, by uploading it onto Pinterest, and then sharing it via its Pinterest link onto dB. It’s a bit more complicated but seems to share it larger. I don’t know why this is though.
Thank you 😀 I forgot there was an Universe’s Big Star level, the one writen in hangeul. Kim Heechul obviously comes to mind 😂
Universe’s Big Star Kim Heechul~ Milky skin Kim Heechul~
I seen to remember that Rebel Who Stole The People was airing about the time this list was available to peruse. So maybe, maybe there are more now since there are more dramas out.
I assume the Brain Fetus is a Doctor Jin reference (?). Does that show really rate a spot?
And if each level gets harder and takes longer, and so many of us are spending a year as Errand Boy (yesterday was my 1-year anniversary) how many of us want to spend at least a decade commemorating that show? I guess the good news is most of us won’t live that long.
And we don’t need to worry about the list having an ending because none of us mere mortals will ever see it. Maybe DB Staff….
😂😂😂 yup. I think those pages are enough. Unless a revelation in biotech suddenly allows us to live 1000s of years, we’re never making it to the last few levels.
@lordcobol,
ROFLMAO! Jinja, the Brain Fetus level?!? Yep, that’s from DR. JIN for sure. Now that I think of it, that must have been a rare Joseon PPL for mutant Gummi Bears.
Another consideration that Mr. P pointed out: As time goes by, there will presumably be new levels added continuously. So just like Beanies’ Kdrama to-watch lists, we’ll never be able to reach the top rank. It will be an ever-evolving target, complete with “level dilation.” The closer you get to reaching the top level, the more difficult it will become.
yeah, i clicked some of the links, and a page opened, but it had no content. It looks like maybe they intended to write something for each level but then never did?
I do wonder if they’ve updated this list or if it is still the same. Are there even MORE levels now??? Have any been changed? Do we have to pass down our dB account to our offering in order to ever keep leveling up? *Is now picturing a post apocalyptic world where the only source of joy is trying to level up on Dramabeans lol)
i am totally hoping there are new levels since this….especially ones that fall somewhere in the middle of these…now that i have the list, i also want to be surprised.
*really regretting having offended the queen now that i also picture this post-ap world…. 😉

Koreans pronounce Chef as Chep. It has been used in many dramas. For me it reminds me of two of my most favorites, Jo Jung Suk and Junho.

He wrote in Subway before he was a published novelist in the modern day portion of the drama.
