This is such a lovely scene from Coffee Prince where Han Kyul calls to wake up Eun Chan. Im even going to be posting it without my normal smart ass commentary!
I love how he's rolling around on the floor in glee. So. Cute.
And butting in on someone else's comment:
i havent yet seen Hello My Teacher. Worth it?
I alternatively loved and hated Hello, My Teacher. Gong Yoo's character grows from a jerk to a romantic woobie, but I liked the heroine less and less as the series progressed. She starts off as a legendary delinquent and ends up. . . crying every episode.
Do you want the invite sent to your gmail address?
i like my girls with attitude.
Bori was pretty cool early on, and I *loved* that she had good female friends. There's a scene in episode five(?) where she and her girlfriends band together to save a couple of her students from a band of thugs. And then, we never saw her friends again :(
yes, please! gmail is the only account i use regularly.
i remember that you liked the beginning, but then i dont remember what you said after that. it makes me sad that she lost her badass edge. and her friends..where do they all randomly GO?
. . . I never posted my reaction to the end of the series, because I felt bad for falling out of love with it. As much as I liked Tae In, I went into the series looking for a strong woman. Her romantic angst wasn't even balanced by a real passion for teaching--Bori wanted to become a teacher so that she could be closer to her first love.
Just. No.
(But! Tae In is *adorable.* I feel HMT would be better if I could chop it down to the cute Tae In/Bori moments).
and her friends..where do they all randomly GO?
Maybe they didn't know what to do with all that crying, and decided to lay low until Bori returned to normal? *g*
THANK YOU. Everywhere I have seen Hello My Teacher talked about people have loved it universally, and I just... didn't. And that's putting it very nicely.
I too had high hopes for it in the beginning, I saw it as a Gokusen where I would finally get the ending I wanted. Instead I absolutely HATED Bori by the end of it, and that is not the way you should feel about the heroine.
I started HMT because it was supposed to have a vibe similiar to Gokusen, which. . . not so much :(
I feel a bit bad for disliking HMT, because I really *was* happy with it at the beginning. Bori takes down a group of bullies! Bori smacks Tae In around when he grabs her during his escape! And then we got into Bori's wishy-washy relationship with her first love.
I'm not sure how Bori ended up earning all of Tae In's devotion, considering that most of their time together was spent with him consoling Bori over her relationship with Tae In's *uncle.*
I absolutely HATED Bori by the end of it
Yes!
I did like the last episode, although by that point I was just happy for Tae In--quite a change from the first episode, where I wanted to strangle the brat. *g*
