Dream High: Episode 4

Wow, all of a sudden this drama hit the ground running. Where was this energy before? We finally got past the introduction which is great because honestly, I was waiting for President Jung to finally disappear. Honestly, he just made no sense. Now we leave the plot in the hands of the three special admission students who are stuck in the lower classes where they cannot study music or dancing and there only hope is maybe get into a college...how sad is that? But at least the plot has finally decided to give us some direction. I can tell from now on, we'll be following these underdogs whom the new Principal will refuse to let succeed. Ok, now I'm on board!

Dream High: Episode 3

We are delving deeper into the characters that are Hye Mi, Baek Hee, and Jin Gook. After this episode, it's kind of clear where the line has been drawn. Obviously the three specially admitted students aren't exactly welcome and President Jung left WHO in charge and put his trust in WHO? I question his character and his reasons. Does anyone else feel that this drama has started to get random? Where did Sam Dong come from, anyways?? How does President Jung even know about him? Well, that's where we are this episode.

My Princess: Episode 2


Wow, talk about the LOL's! Seul continues to surprise me and make me crack up while Hae Young is really exercising his acting abilities and wow, shirtless? Can you walk around with your shirt off every episode? Ok ok, just asking! But I just love where this drama is going. The reactions to the plot are so believable that you don't wonder why the characters are acting that way, but what they will do about the situation.

My Princess: Episode 1


Plot? Check. Characters? Check. Characters are believable? Check. All parties are accounted for? Come on, we don't want to leave anyone out here. Check! Logic? Umm, check for now. LOL's? Most definitely! What a way to hit the ground running. This drama means business and it's not wasting time with introductions. In fact, we aren't even introduced to the main characters before they even have their first argument! But that's ok. The rest of the hour makes up for it as we are entertained by four different characters (love square) and a plot to bring back the royal family of Korea. Alright, I'll buy that for now.

Dream High: Episode 2


This drama is still in the 2/5 range, even after this episode. I can see how we're getting a deeper understanding of each character and being introduced to a few new ones. With the bar being so low on the first episode, this episode wasn't much more of a surprise. The plot didn't seem to be going anywhere in this second hour and no one's actions really made sense, especially Bae Yong-Joon's character. We pulled two random people out of thin air without no explanation and we are expected to accept these people as legitimate characters. Logic, where are you?

Dream High: Episode 1

After having just watched the first episode of Dream High, my feelings are mixed. The hype of an idol-filled drama mixed with heavy advertising might suggest that this drama would be the hit of the season, a great way to start off 2011. However, I will try to keep in mind that this is the first episode and we shouldn't hold it against the drama. First episodes tend to be the worst which is horrible if a drama wants to keep their audience to the end. Now onto business!

New Years Resolution

Hello Stalkers!

Happy New Year! I hope everyone had a safe holiday and if you were travelling, that you got home in one piece. For our news years resolution, we plan on fan subbing at least three dramas this year. We'll continue to work on Marry Me, Mary as we rewrite some of the script to fulfill our fangirl fetishes as well. But you can look forward to some immediate results as we stalk:

-Dream High
-My Princess

over these next few weeks. So you can look forward to that!

Happy New Year and welcome 2011!

-Stephanie
