You’re Beautiful Episode 14

Episode 14 –  Loved the beginning of this episode, seriously I had a physical reaction when he whispers in her ear!  I also love the fireworks and flowers digital scenes.   The fan fiction montage was hilarious and this is all in just the first 15 minutes.

There is one thing as an American viewer that doesn’t translate well in the subtitles.  When TaeKyung whispers, “chohayo” the subtitle reads I love you, but this is really more of an “I like you romantically” statement.  If it were I love you he would have said sarang hae.

To the Jeremy Magic Bus scene… hmmm, I have to say, I love Lee Hong Ki but his character is so exaggerated it was hard for me to get into him… (although snaps for being the first shirtless bandmate in episode 1).  But I was emotionally moved with his bus scene.  The part that really stuck it to me is when Go Mi Nam just rode with him on the bus at the end.  Lee Hong Ki totally won me over, can’t wait to see him in more acting roles.

To the “Stars on the Rooftop post movie” scene…. I was totally waiting for this scene/moment and it didn’t disappoint.   I especially liked what Tae Kyung was wearing in this scene.  He just looked too sexy and then the little finger come hither… The whole thing was just so yummy, more please.

When Shin Woo comes home, I have to say that the writers (the Hong Sisters) really hit the nail on the head.  As far as the subtitles allow, exactly, no tension between them, he finally seems to “get it” but it is too late now.  I would have liked to see this earlier and really had some tension between him and TaeKyung.

And as a final note… Are there only 2 Caucasian actors in Korea?  In this series there are two; the unattractive “princess” from Jeremy’s dream sequence and the female doctor about midway through the episode who is the same Chef that appeared in Boys over Flowers.  I don’t know how well received she is as an actor in Korea, but here in the States, she super sucks.  I cringe with every second of her on screen time.  (update – just saw another fugly blonde on My Girl)

BTW – the kiss from episode 14 is found in my Best list… click here

Previously had the vid clip where Tae Kyung leans over and whispers in her ear… “Chohayo” – one of my favorite scenes, but it was deleted and I can’t find it.  Please leave a comment if you know where I can pick up back up.





You’re Beautiful Episode 12 & 13

27 05 2010

Episode 12 – The kiss really wasn’t that exciting, no fireworks, but what happened afterward I totally loved.  Her fantasy of asking him why he kissed her… this made my heart practically thump out of my chest.  Tae Kyung’s/Jang Geun Suk’s smile is a ridiculously dangerous weapon and very firework worthy.

Also I noted the electric guitar version of “Somewhere Over the Rainbow”.  This song must really be a big deal in Korea, I have heard it in several dramas.  If anyone knows any additional info please leave a comment.  Thank you.

I have read that the ending line of this episode was somewhat misrepresented by the subtitle, it is more of a recognition that she likes him and he is okay with that rather than how conceited it sounds.

Check out this vid of some behind the scenes footage.  I can’t be the only person who thinks there is some flirting between Park Shin Hye and Jung Yong Hwa.  Enjoy!

Episode 13 – This is an episode that shares one of my favorite scenes and the one scene that I really wish they would have not made.  The thing is here in America, “Fly me to the Moon” is a classic.   We have heard it from Nat King Cole, Tony Bennett and Frank Sinatra.  It was painful for me to watch them murder the classic.  But there were also great moments,  I especially loved the “test” he gave her after joining the fan club.

I am continuing to learn how to make my content richer, etc.  I am updating old pages as well as starting a new page for videos, music, etc. anything that I want to share.   Please continue to return as I try to update often.  Thank you!





You’re Beautiful Episode 11 plus grocery store clip, no eng sub

Episode 11 – Just two comments on this episode… Love how Tae Kyung picks up his jacket after unsticking Go Mi Nam’s fingers, very stylish.  I also loved to see Shin Woo stepping it up – about time he really went after the girl he wants.

Previously I had a  clip from the super market scene that was not in the U.S. version I saw.  Sorry it is no longer available… I hate that we can’t always tell if it has been modified/edited from the original… what’s up with that??

I found a version of the grocery store scene, but no eng sub

Please let me know if you find the clip or if you find a dead link on my site.  Thank you!!

Episode 8 –

Just a fun vid showing the various photos they took for promotional things… I had a cool BTS photoshoot, but as per norm they took it down.

I am continuing to learn how to make my content richer, etc.  Please leave me a message if any of the links don’t work, etc.  I have started a new page for videos, music, etc. anything that I want to go to Interesting Info .  I currently have a video of T.O.P. and Kim Hyun Joong https://kormerica.wordpress.com/interesting-info/.





You’re Beautiful Episode 7

Episode 7 –

UEE from After School (Korean girl group) plays Yoo He Yi.  Quite a talented cast!  With the exception of the two leads (who actually both sing on the soundtrack) the rest of the main cast are all musicians in their own right.  I can’t resist calling them “Slashies” (see Zoolander).

Here is  behind the scenes footage of UEE’s kiss with Jang Geun Seuk.

Did you note that Jang Geun Seuk mentions she was more interested in Lee Hong Ki, though that shouldn’t surprise anyone.  If you aren’t familiar with Lee Hong Ki, in reality he is a lot more appealing than his character.  He is in an episode of Family Outing, very reserved in that episode, but I think he was not feeling his best, as they mentioned wisdom teeth.  Anyway, he has an amazing voice and those eyes…

So who is your favorite member?  Please let me know who and why with a comment…





You’re Beautiful – Episode 2 plus BTS clip of Lee Hong Ki

Continued discussion of You’re Beautiful

Episode 2 –  I absolutely loved the animated clouds, so cute!

Let’s take a moment to talk about Lee Hong Ki (Jeremy).  Okay, if anyone knows why his character has an American name, I’d love to know.  But cheers all around, good choice, it fit his character and I loved hearing the Korean actors say it.  Anyway, Lee Hong Ki is the lead singer for a band called F.T. Island.  I don’t know much about the band, but I do love their song “Love Sick”.  *update – Lee Hong Ki has really grown on me since this show.  He is so cute I can hardly stand it.  I saw him on Family Outing, but he had just had his wisdom teeth pulled so he was pretty quiet, but it was cool to see him out of character.  I really liked him and he sang part of Love Sick and his voice is awesome.  I also saw a clip of him on some dating show, so if anyone knows what show that is, please leave a comment so I can check it out.

Here are some behind the scenes clips of “Jeremy”… not eng subbed, but really cute.

Jung Yong Hwa (Shin Woo) is a guitarist and vocalist for the new Korean group C N Blue.  Due to his success in this series, he is now the leader of the group (previously held by Lee Jong Hyun).

I love the little hardcore riff they play when Tae Kyung comes on screen.  It just feels fun.

This is the second series from the Hong Sisters that I have watched.  The first was Fantasy Couple, which was good, but I think it was tainted because in America we saw the original Goldie Hawn/Kurt Russell OverBoard, which is totally hilarious and Goldie Hawn was just so charming.
