Ex-Girlfriend Club ep 9 & 10: Much Ado About Nothing

***WARNING! LOUSY BLOG POST AHEAD. SERIOUSLY, JUST PROBABLY OUGHT TO SKIP THIS ONE. ONLY PUTTING IT UP SO THAT I CAN FINALLY WATCH THE FINAL TWO EPISODES. YOU'VE BEEN WARNED***

Ex-Girlfriend Club ep 8: KISSSSSSSSSSSSSEU!!!!!!!!

Maybe a *smidge* overboard, but YAYYYY!
And how cute are the little ears and tail sticking up there at the bottom of the screen?

It has been a while since I felt so strongly about a lead couple. I don't know what it is about these two, but man, I really want them together. It is probably because of the friendship that they have and how they really do seem to be soulmates. Whatever the reason, this kiss that we get in the epiview (is it an epilogue? a preview? I still can't decide), makes me want to dance. And makes it hard for me to talk about anything else in this episode, because, frankly, who cares what else happened since THIS is how it ended?! Everything in the episode led up to them finally taking things definitively out of the friendzone. I'm sure that by next episode, something will come up to threaten the relationship and friendzone them again, but it's too late for that. Try all you want writers to destroy this moment for me, it won't work. This is magical and what I've been hoping and waiting for and no amount of created drama, back-and-forth nonsense, or more ridiculous misunderstandings caused by jealous buttinski ex-girlfriends is going to take this moment away from me.

Ex-Girlfriend Club ep 6: Caught!

Forgive me for a moment, but I just have to get this out....

I FREAKING LOVE THIS DRAMA!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!*gasp*!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
 
Ahem.  Sorry about that. I'll just gather myself here and try to be coherent and less gushy in order to get this thing recapped, but I make no promises that I won't slip back into fangirl mode at some point along the way. Because this drama rocks and there were so many points in this episode that I got gushy and squealy and all that fun stuff, you know, where clear thoughts turn into "eeeeeeeeeeeeeeee!!!!!"

Ex-Girlfriend Club eps 1-5: Let's Get This Party Started!

Well, well, well...this is rather unexpected. I hadn't said anything earlier for fear of jinxing myself (as I often do when I try to bite off more than I can chew), but I had hoped to recap a drama all on my very own in addition to the one I am co-capping with the lovely and marvelous KMuse (Producer). Except the one I had been planning on recapping was Masked Prosecutor, and here I am, changing my mind late in the game. Not that I didn't like Masked Prosecutor, episode one had me very entertained (once I could finally watch it) but, yeah, didn't inspire me as far as writing about it. Too much revenge and politics involved. Blah. This drama on the other hand, this one had me all fired up and just itching to dish with you all. So, I find myself 5 episodes behind the proverbial 8-ball, but ready to take on the challenge of playing catch up because this drama is just that good and totally worth the effort.

Let's get you all up to speed then, shall we?

Ex-Girlfriend Club - Will This be the First Song Ji Hyo Drama I Actually Like?

KMUSE- I want to like Song Ji Hyo dramas.  I really do.  I adore her as Blank Ji Hyo in Running Man.  She is funny and tough and has tons of presence. But whenever she transitions into a drama I just suddenly go into "meh" mode.  

Dongsaeng: For me, I'm fine with Song Ji Hyo. I'm just really in the mood for a daebak comedy after a rash of drama-heavy dramas. Like, desperately in need of light and funny with zero drama drama.

Kmuse's Musings: Hit and Miss Photos of our Favorite Stars

It has been a while since I have shared some of my favorite Kphotos so I thought today would be the perfect day for it.  Because I am behind in all my dramas (counted it up and it was over 20 hrs) I have not watched everything to do my top 5 countdown.  So instead this will be the perfect filler post.  For those of you who have not checked out any of my photo themed posts before, I snag the photos that stand out to me (both good and bad) and share them with all of you.  Keep in mind that I am only commenting on the concept, clothes, and all around look of the photo.  It has nothing to do with the actor or musician in the photo.  Many of the most horrendous photo shoots are of actors I love, so I mean no offense to anyone's fandom or bias's. If you have any favorite photo-spreads, or find a photo that is just a horrible, feel free to share it in the comments or on our FB page.  It might appear on the next Kmuse's Musing Fashion post.

THE BEST:

Kim Woo Bin - W Korea

I am a huge fan of these two close up desert themed photos of Woo Bin.  There were some in the same photo spread that I did not like (to come later in the post), but these two were perfectly done.  They grab your attention but he does not look like he is posing or trying to sell you something.  Well done.

Choi Jin Hyuk - Grazia 2014

I first watched Choi Jin Hyuk as Papa Gimiho in Gu Family Book, and promptly fell in love with his acting, looks, and of course voice.  I imagine that this is what he would look like if he had not died 400 years ago.

Bae Doo Na - Harper's Bazaar May 2014

I love the textures and color combo's in these photos.  If I was going on just the clothes, I would say that all of them mixed together is a bit ugly (like most of the pieces separately), but somehow it just all comes together for a rich and beautiful series of photos.

Cha Seung Won-High Cut’s Vol. 126

Very dynamic closeup.  And usually I am not a fan of his photos.  Not that they are horrible, just usually they don't speak to me.  So that makes this one all the better.

Park Min Young - Harper's Bazaar May 2014

 Such beautiful Spanish lace and Park Min Young always takes amazing photos.   I like the old world feel of these photos.

Song Ji Hyo - Grazia May 2014

 I am not a fan of Song Ji Hyo's red hair in most of this photo shoot.  However it was perfectly set off with the bright blue sea and sky.  A beautiful photo with amazing colors.

Lee Jong Suk - High Cut May 2014

 The mix of colors between the clothes and the graffiti are so dynamic.  I also like how in the second photo they used the lines of the graffiti and the lines of his shirt to create a synergy. And of course you can't go wrong adding Lee Jong Suk into the mix.  

THE WORST:

 Joo Won - Instyle Korea June 2014

 I love Joo Won, however these are definite photo fails.  They are way to busy and it is hard to positively confirm that this even is Joo Won.  For such a dynamic man, it is a shame that they overwhelmed him with these busy backgrounds.

Eric Nam - Vogue Girl Korea May 2014

This shirt looks like a 80's reject.  Ugly Prints mixed together does not one good print make.  He is so adorable, but this is truly just 100% ugly.

Kang Ha Neul - Harper's Bazaar May 2014

 I don't like shorts on guys in photo shoots for the most part,  and this photo is not changing my mind.  The pure white outfit just accentuates the shiny whiteness of his legs.  Not a good look.

 Park Min Young - Harper's Bazaar May 2014

 I think the actually dress is beautiful (again I love the lace theme of these clothes), but the giant mass of doilies and fringe on the shoulder is very very ugly.  Wish we could just cut it out of the photo.

 Kim Woo Bin - W Korea 

Awkward legs, the face is too far away to see detail, and the disappearing print on the clothes makes Woo Bin look like a floating head.  I don't like the components of this photo. In another spot with a different pose it might work, but nothing is working in this specific look.

I hope you enjoyed all of these fun pictorials.  I should be back to normal next week and will have a brand new Top 5 Kdrama Countdown.  Also things are heating up in both Witch's Romance and Gap Dong, so check out my recaps to see all my snarky and sometimes witty comments.

Sincerely,

Kmuse
