Beanie level: Rooftop room dweller

crazy fun MV and the song is a banger 🔥 – my new 9-5 anthem during the week 😂

    Heck yes!!! It’s an excellent banger for sure 😎🔥 Lol I stayed up until 11pm my time to listen to their new EP IMMEDIATELY when it was released – it was worth it!! I’m biased since they’re my favorite group, but this is a great release… I love that ATEEZ’s music is just FUN, and I feel like this has the most dance tracks of any of their recent releases!

      HOW GOOD RIGHT!! It released while I was at work (lol) so I wish I could’ve waited and listened to it immediately like you got to! I also love how fun it is, this song in particular is screaming song of the summer for me & honestly the EP just isn’t long enough, I want MORE 😍

      1
      2

        I know!!!! Aww I’m sorry you couldn’t listen to it right away… lol the only reason I could stay up that late just for this is because I’m currently on vacation and didn’t have work in the morning 😂 It’s such a summery EP!! And so many dance tracks!!! I love the new sound for this new era!!!

        1

          Omg vacation, I’m excited for you!!! I hope you’re having a grand time – are you travelling or just taking time off and chilling at home?!

          And me too – I was a bit surprised at how laid back this sounded because I think the last few releases were all like head bangers hahahah even the choreo for Work looks relaxed compared to normal ATEEZ choreo , and it’s a nice summery change!!

          1

            Thank you!!!🤗❤️ We took a bit of a road trip and are enjoying a mix of relaxing and exploring 😊 Lol one of my projects for the trip is to get my dad to watch some K-content with me 😄 Alienoid was a success, so we’re going to watch Alienoid 2 next! I hope work is going well for you and that you’re doing well!!🤗

            I agree about their sound – I enjoyed their previous releases, but I like this sound even more! Lol you’re right about the choreo – it’s so chill!! And lol at Jongho and the flute 😂 😂 😂

    Hi,
    Sorry for a random unrelated comment. I am just checking did I miss the post with the questions for the book club read on 14th July? The site has been glitchy for me so I keep discovery posts I missed weeks later and I wanted to make sure I was ready for the discussion post.

Ahh the ending!! That’s got to be one of my favourite proposals ever 😍 Sorry future partners, my expectations are through the stratosphere now 😂

What an absolutely perfect final episode, I couldn’t have asked for anything more. I laughed, I cried, I swooned, I smiled like a love sick idiot through most of it and although I’m sad to say goodbye now, my heart feels ever so fuzzy and warm. I’ve enjoyed every minute of this drama so much and it’ll definitely be one I’ll rewatch many times over in the future.

I’m sending my sincere gratitude for the cast and crew into the universe, hopefully they feel all the love! 💕

    The moment they off-ed the cabbie I screamed but then also got little scared (like Sun-Jae) what if he comes back. After all his plot armor was pretty much impenetrable till now. Tae Sung’s comment to his father seemed little meta. Like forget about him and just enjoy the fluff.

    1
    1

      I was so scared during that scene that they’d make Taesung be the sacrificial goat, so I had the biggest sigh of relief when they off-ed the cabbie. I was also like you though being a bit 👀 paranoid as to whether he’d suddenly come back (like he somehow got the watch and now was also time travelling lol that’d be a hoot).

        I didn’t like the choice of narrating Queen Charlotte, it’s my least favorite for that. I think they changed too much the FL in the season 2 compared with the book. So I guess the first one is still my favorite.

    I mean I had never been interested in Bridgerton, thinking they somewhat look too over-the-top with their wardrobe, I somehow ended up watching ep 1 some days ago and thought it was quite fun! I don’t know why I wasn’t interested in SS1, but I agree that Queen Charlotte was really good.

    And I LOVE your meme. Too true.

#LovelyRunner Honestly ep 13 was a ‘reaLLY??’ and then 14 was basically try not to cry challenge (impossible). Literally I’m sure my eyes were just permanently on the verge of tears the entire way through. I kind of get why we introduced this arc, but it was twice the amount of angst and I was just TIRED you guys😭

And at one point I found myself wondering, I love SunSol with all my heart BUT would life maybe be easier and still just as sweet with Taesung?? In a different way maybe but if I had to choose between heartbreaking true love or just stable love that’s not life defining but sweet nonetheless, I think I’d choose the latter….the heart wants what it wants though I suppose.

    Haha I cried a goodish amount these eps 😅 I still loved them, though! For whatever reason, the angst hasn’t been making me anxious yet – I think because sadness has been balanced with sweetness. It’s funny because after finishing ep 14 last night, I was thinking the SAME THING about choices and Tae-sung… IRL (Lol), Tae-sung would be a great choice. The only problem, as LaurenSophie said, is that he’s not Sun-jae 🥲

      We continue to be on the same wavelength Hopeful! But yes, I’m not anxious per se but you know when you love something so much (and also cry/feel sad/sympathise with on screen characters so much) that you’re like GOSH I feel like I ran an emotional marathon just then? That was me this week 😅

      1
      1

        Oh my gosh yes!!! I understand what you mean. Kdrsmas are so good at creating empathy with their characters that it feels like you’re feeling everything right along with them… an “emotional marathon” is such a good descriptor!! I really hope our hope and patience is rewarded next week 🥲

      I’ve been avoiding the fanwall in between episodes (heck, I’m even avoiding YouTube to skip accidental spoilers in video screencaps!), but after watching 13… I liked it! All was to be expected, honestly. We had to have an angst climax first – it is the penultimate week, after all – and I liked how the reveals and emotional beats were paced. Certainly there will be at least one more reset to go. Shades of Hong-jo certainly crossed my mind, too, but most of the main cast here are SO SMART compared to dramaland standards – look at them involving the police right away and keeping their phones charged! Also Tae-sung is my favorite SML of all time and his grownup version is 🔥🔥🔥

            Huh. So after all the warnings and complaints (completely justified, I admit), I’m … kind of okay with this episode. Sure, I had to ignore the tired amusement park trope as well as Sol running alone through the woods in homage to her unnie Hong-jo, but I didn’t have any trouble following the time-travel throughline and I’m not upset about SJ’s watch popping up with another three chances to go back, because there were always two watches – or one watch existing in two timelines – and that had to come into play eventually. Truly I think the comments here lowered my expectations enough that I could just focus on the plot progression, sloppy as it was. Thanks! 😂

            Also, 34-year-old Tae-sung is effin’ 🔥🔥🔥. When it started to snow while he was kneeling in front of Sol, I thought “girl, just grab onto what’s in front of you and don’t look back.”

    With all the songs the production seems to be re-mixing, I’m just imagining the budget they have for music alone 🫣 Because music copyrights are expensive
    The “Jimmy Fallon” show is always saying how they don’t use much music outside of their own little jingles because the copyright fees would basically blow their entire production budget for an episode

      Ay that’s so true! They must have a huge budget though, bc the OST is limited but it’s big name covers and also the costumes only get grander each season. I suppose this show is Netflix’s money maker after all though!

        Very true 😅 Netflix must be dumping a lot of change into “Bridgerton” for sure, and I assume the ROI they get is just as much if not more 🤔

I say this knowing I’m about to risk the ire of many a Beanie, but I really am such a sucker for a good past life lovers/fated lovers story line. I know I’m getting side eyed right now considering the state of the last few dramas that had this plot point/trope AND how it’s often shoved in as a lazy technique in lieu of actually building the romance properly, BUT honestly no matter how messy the drama is, the minute they have those flashback scenes or mentions of ‘fate’ and ‘past lives’ I’m like AWW THEY FOUND EACH OTHER 😍 😍 😍 😍 and it never gets old. I could’ve (and have tbh) watched countless Korean and Chinese dramas with this trop and I get heart flutters and goosebumps like it’s the first time I’ve ever witnessed the trope in action lol

Currently being inspired by the YouTube edit that someone made of the past lives storyline in Destined With You and I’ve turned into a puddle that completely forgot what a fiasco that drama was overall 🤷‍♀️

    All we have our favorite tropes or kind of situations.
    Mine are “found families”, “fish out of the water” and “one or two of the main characters are alone in the world, no family, no house…”.

    The past life or fated lovers is interesting too, when it’s well made.

    6
    1

      I love a good fish out of the water story too!! I love that K-dramas have something in there for everyone – I think there was a discussion about this in a thread sometime ago about how there were just so many different types of plot in K-dramas, sometimes with plots that you feel like were taken straight from your own imagination and fantasies.

        Thank you for sharing. I got goosebumps watching this. Hat’s off to the editor who surely spent hours and hours to edit this to perfection. It has all the crazy good bits and the dialogues are cherry on top. I’m amazed and fascinated and inspired. I definitely want to rewatch it again peaceably. Someday … 🤞

        1
        1

          ^^ I meant the drama. It definitely deserves a rewatch eith fresh eyes and outlook. I do think it was a better drama than we were able to process it during the live watch.

          I wonder if the YT editor has commented on her experience in watching Destined With You.

          1
          2

            I know exactly what you mean! It’s crazy how editing changes the way we perceive things (I know it seems like a ‘duh of course it would’ but idk I’m still amazed how much of a big change can be achieved by small edits) – kind of reminds me of that video that was making the rounds a few years ago of how simply changing the music to a Harry Potter movie trailer drastically changed the tone of the whole story.

            I know there’s completed dramas that I’ve watched or have been watching now where I’m like, I’m so glad I’m watching it post it being ‘finished’ because I can definitely see me having a totally different experience if I’d live watched it while it was airing. I think Doom At Your Service is one of those, I watched it after the whole thing finished airing and enjoyed it (recognising the major flaws and all) but I can defs see myself hating it/not enjoying it at all had I watched it while it aired. Maybe has something to do with knowing the ending and subconsciously changing expectations accordingly vs being clueless as to trajectory when live watching?

            That makes a lot of sense. I remember @IsaGC watching Heartbeat towards the end of last year and quite liked it. She also said exactly this that going in when you know where it is headed you watch it accordingly.

            Incidentally I too watched Doom At Your Service post airing and quite liked it.

            I have more and more respect for the directors and editors as they really make the stars shine. This Destined is the drama I want to watch … and it is all there but yes it was a bit of a mess. My strong objection while live watching was – Why is Shin-yu with Hong-jo without breaking up with the ex-gf for what seemed like the longest of time. I know he did break up but she continued to cling till he set her up with the guy she was cheating with and casually exposed them both. I mean the very title says Destined but the drama that I live watched didn’t convince me that it was so … but this little video did. 🤣 So I feel a rewatch with a fresh view may actually improve the drama. Just like our ongoing Our Blooming Youth Community Watch. I swear with this supportive audience I really feel I’m watching a brand new drama. Of course the Crown Prince being played by Park Hyung-sik helps. 😉

    It wasn’t a fiasco! A fiasco is when they promise something and give something else like 49Days or Heartbeat (bitter ends).

    DwY was clearly not a tight story but the end was in alignment with the story and it’s characters.

    I can relate! I feel like after years and years and years of watching dramas— Kdramas and Cdramas alike— I will tend to eye-roll or be completely turned off and made uninterested about a premise and a trope when on paper and in words, but I agree that when it’s done right and done well, I get all warm and fuzzy inside, too!!

      Absolutely!!! When it’s well delivered especially, no matter how many times I’ve seen this exact plot or trope play out before, I too will get warm and fuzzy inside. And the ones that make you change your mind like you said, where you have an opposite reaction to seeing it on paper vs seeing it play out in the film/show, those are so special!

        As soon as he started talking about making choices even knowing the outcome I started crying 😭😭😭 This drama has four more episodes to use to figure out how to give us a happy ending… please please please!! 🙏

          you and @seeker are smart omg I was bamboozled completely when she got off the train and her expression changed 🤡

          SURELY happy ending, both True Beauty and Flower of Evil had HEA’s so I’m going by some kind of delusional believe that this PD/writer duo are in favour of a HEA.

          Yes Hopeful – never more relevant. KEEP CALM and get HEA.

Ahh the irony….

So I’m watching Love You Seven Times where the premise is that a fairy and the God of War, tied together by the red string of fate by accident, end up having to through 6 love ‘trials’ through 6 different lifetimes. In their second life, the ML doesn’t know who he is because he drank the amnesia water like he was supposed to but the FL retains full memories of her identity because she tampered with her amnesia water. So she fully knows who she is and that she’s just currently living out a mortal life as part of the trials, but despite this she eventually gets wholly consumed by her current ‘life’ as it goes on.

Me watching this: *scoffs* smh how’d she get so entangled when she KNOWS this isn’t who she really is/this isn’t her real life – it’ll just be a dream for her in the end. Why is she so invested and getting caught up in feels???

Also me like 4 episodes later: crying and blubbering along with the leads as they go through their doomed lovers lifetime, repeatedly forgetting that this is just a mini arc and so the ‘tragic ending’ in this lifetime, is not the end of the actual story. Why does my heart hurt so much though omg.

    Ooh, good to hear you’re liking this. It’s on my watch list and it’s nice to get the beanie stamp of approval 👍

      Yeah it’s a vibe so far!! It did take a while for me to warm up to the FL and also for the story to really get going (like it picks up around ep 8) but the set design/CGI and costuming has been STUNNING since the start, a visual feast 😍 Keen to hear your thoughts when you get around to it!

        I’ll let you know! I like Ding Yu Xi and the premise really appeals to me.

@HopefulRomantic I thought of you the moment I watched this performance so had to share! I remember when we were fangirling over the most recent ATEEZ comeback we were saying how much we loved Silver Lights and so badly wanted to see choreo/a live performance. It exists!!

Bless ATEEZ for never failing to give us performances of most of their B-sides. It’s actually so sad how many groups have banger B-sides that never see the stage lights or get any sort of immortalisation in chores 😭

    Oh My Gosh I love it!!! That’s so sweet of you to find that and tag me!!! Thank you Lapis!!!🥰 it’s fun to fangirl together! ❤️ I appreciate all the music you share – I’m now a fan of Taeyong, too, after you shared SHALALA!

    I’m so excited about the new comeback ATEEZ will be releasing on the 31st!!! Do you listen to Enhypen? I also really like them, and they released a new EP yesterday. I hope you have a great evening!!! Also, I know you had mentioned some recent changes at work for you, and I hope everything is going well ❤️

      Aww heheh I’m so glad to hear you’re a Taeyong fan too (on your way to become a czennie 😉) and of course, I love our little fangirl moments v much 💕 I’m so, so, so psyched for the new comeback – not one has missed so far for me so fingers crossed for this one too.

      I LOVE ENHYPEN!! YAY you’re a fan too!! I have been ‘rediscovering’ them lately too because some of their ‘older’ songs have been remerging on my playlist shuffles recently and I’m like wow I forgot about this one and this one and this one 😆 I have been hooked on their EP too, especially Scream! Do you have a fav song or album of theirs?

      And thank you for the lovely work and life wishes (and good memory :O) – likewise, I hope you’re having a good day (I think!) and both life and work are going well ❤️

        Taeyong is so cool!! Really enjoyed his most recent album, too. Yes so far all the ATEEZ comebacks have been AWESOME and I’m so excited for the next one!!! Haha I even pre-ordered the album 😅

        YAYYYY fangirls for Enhypen!!! They’re probably my second favorite group after ATEEZ! Oooh Scream is really good… I also really love Fatal Trouble. It’s a really cool sounding EP! I’ve been avoiding YouTube to not see Lovely Runner spoilers, so I haven’t seen if they’ve released MVs yet, but I’m sure they’ll be cool!

        I’m really glad to hear that things are going well for you!!!❤️ Thank you – in getting ready for my day, and things have been going well! 😊

          Fatal Trouble is v good – there is an MV on the Dark Moon channel, in the same style of One in A Billion’s MV but a little less dynamic because it’s basically just their Webtoon avatars on a moving train and things like the background or what they’re doing in their seats change etc. Still really aesthetic and cool though.

          Pre-ordering is so fun, it’s like past you is gifting future you 😆 I’ve also done the same for a few albums (rip bank account) but it’ll be worth the serotonin when they land in the mailbox heheh

If there’s some magic that can bottle that scene of drunk Sunjae and Taesung being losers in love over Sol, I’d pay anything for it #LRep11

SO ADORABLE this episode was 😍

    I LIVED for each and every second other than murderous cabbie of episode 11. Sun-Jae and Tae Sung and In-hyuk were always destined to be friends.

      Ngl I totally didn’t realise I’d redacted the murderous cabbie from my memory of the episode till your comment, so that tells you something….

      I love the friendship, even the small bits here and there with the other college boys were really cute, and some with Taesung and his buddy ✨ I wish we had more of Sol and her bff/other friends too tbh!

OKay no like I was like ahahah yeah me too with this whole trend, but this one genuinely made me like double take – no TRIPLE take – because I’ve watched Waikiki S2 at least three times and I NEVER noticed Byeon Woo-seok??????? 🤯 What on earth?? It’s not even like a, ‘ohh yeah I remember him! Now I know his name!’, it’s more like I genuinely completely missed seeing him there in the first place???????

    I HAD THE SAME THOUGHT. I looked at his list of cameos, and was baffled that I couldn’t remember “him” in those dramas, even if I could remember the roles. How could I not recognize across dramas anyone so tall and handsome?? 😂

    i had this thought about 20th century girl..

    i watched it when it released.. i freaking remember everything about that movie…even the ML and his entire journey and last video and all… but still just could not remember him as BW or associate his face with that… only now when it came up, i still had to go back and check.. still blank in my memories..
    or romance youth drama with bo gum…

    the only thing i conclusively remember him in is that weird s2 of strong girl

    I don’t know what kind of directors he has been working with 😀

      Yessss this feeling exactly!!! How trippy and freaky is that!! It’s even more 🤯 when you can really recall just about everything BUT someone or something – even wilder when he’s the ML and your brain just cropped him out of your memories 😂

      I know objectively that human brains aren’t exactly 100% reliable but these sorts of things really hammer that point home and now I’m wondering what and who else I’ve missed hahahah 😆

        but based on comments seems this happened to a lot of folks across majority of his work portfolio.. that is not normal

          His cameos were “blink and you’ll miss them” cameos. He never detracted from the maim leads or even tried to—his job was to blend in and he did.
