Korean dramas...are dramatic
Oct. 23rd, 2014 09:55 pmI'm not a big TV person these days: I don't follow a lot of shows, and I don't feel compelled to rewatch a lot either.
But! I love Korean historical dramas!
I'm watching "Jung-Yi, Goddess of Fire" right now, and it is fabulous! Drama! Costumes! Royal people to like! Royal people to despise! Intrigues galore! And little bits about Korean ceramics circa the 1500s. Plus, I instantly recognized the lead protagonist from another excellent drama as the headliner in this one. ('painter of the wind', anyone? ;) )
Every time I watch a show like this, it makes me want to learn the language, just so I can watch it without the subtitles. XD
Unrelated: I am (slowly) working on more trucker and hooker fic! Maybe I'll have something to tantalize you with in a few days?
