2NE1 TV SEASON 3 (EPISODE 15- LIVE WORLDWIDE WITH ENG SUBS )

THIS IS IT EVERYONE!

Yes, I know it's been a while since their season ended and I'm really sorry that I've not posted up their FINAL episode!

It's just heartbreaking, with this being their LAST episode to not only Season 3 of 2NE1 TV but to the whole series! You read it right, there is NOT going to be anymore 2NE1 TV and that's just upsetting!!! I know we'll definitely miss the girls and their quirky personalities.

Suppose it's for the better since 2NE1 will be taking on the American market this year and it'd just be overwhelming for them with so much work. Nevertheless, you will always have our support 2NE1!!!

This episode shows our favourite girls hard at work for their Japanese tour and be warned; it is an emotional episode being the closing chapter of the series that got us to know CL, Bom, Dara and Minzy. Watching them on stage just makes me wish I can watch them live! Don't think this desire will be going away anytime soon...

2NE1 NOLJA!!!

해를 품은 달 (THE MOON THAT EMBRACES THE SUN) OST PART 3

Wheesung (휘성) sang the third part of the OST for MoonSun called Trail Of Tears (눈물길). As expected of Wheesung's strong and soothing vocals to be able to bring such sorrow to the lyrics for this song. I just have a feeling that the lyrics are referring to King Lee Hwon's feelings for Yeon Woo/ Wol. What do you think? Take a listen below :)

EPISODE 8 PREVIEW FOR 해를 품은 달 (THE MOON THAT EMBRACES THE SUN)

OMGGGGGGGGGGG! JUNG IL WOO'S FANTASTIC PORTRAYAL OF EMOTIONS! 
And Prince YangMyung recognizes Yeon Woo first! But...I feel so sad every time I think about his unrequited love :(  Wol would just act as a human amulet and stay by King Lee Hwon's side to heal his sickness (whatever he has). But I doubt Lee Hwon would know that she's by his side in this episode. After all, we're only in Episode 8. After Episode 7 yesterday, I felt like I still feel Chi Soo in Prince Yang Myung's character, which I'm not too sure if that's good. But after seeing the preview for episode 8, I felt relieved that Jung Il Woo's acting skills prove to not disappoint. As for Kim Soo Hyun, it's still hard for me to be 100% convinced of his portrayal of the king since young Yeo Jin Goo did such a great job. I know it's his first sageuk and all but I'm sure his acting would improve as the episodes go by. Han Ga In, on the other hand, did a better job than I expected. The scene where she cries upon seeing King Lee Hwon's face while his palanquin was passing by was moving. But STILL! this drama feels like it slowed down a little for me after it transitioned into the adult cast. I pray that everyone does a good job for Ep 8! *crosses fingers*

Comments from koalasplayground:

The transition from the children to the adults in The Moon that Embraces the Sun has changed the mood and dynamic of the drama as expected. Not in ways that are good or bad, just that the vibrant colors and sparkling energy has given way to darkened romance and moody melancholy. Everything feels heavier, as it ought to since the cheerful kids have turned into sad adults for the most part aside from Princess Minhwa. Normally child actors are just placeholders for their adult counterparts, holding down the fort until the adults everyone wants to see show up. This might be the first time I’ve been so taken with the children that it’s not that easy to immediately accept the adult actors in the same role.

I think the adults are doing just fine all around, but except for Kim Soo Hyun as Hwon and Nam Bora as Princess Minhwa, I’m still vaguely bothered by this feeling of disconnect between performances that don’t quite jibe for all the other adults. Storywise, the plot appears to be moving at the speed of a freight train, with very little of the typical drawn out reunion scenes and just-missed-each-other moments. I’m just glad that both Yang Myung and Hwon saw Wol and immediately recognized her as a doppleganger for Yeon Woo. Yay for avoiding logic fail! Now bring on more sizzle.

SEE! I'm not the only one who thinks that way!

EPISODE 7 PREVIEW FOR 해를 품은 달 (THE MOON THAT EMBRACES THE SUN)

KYAAAAAAAAAAAAA! 
Yeon Woo/ Wol meets King Lee Hwon in Episode 7 just like in Chapter 1 of the novel! :DDDD   Although I do have my doubts about Han Ga In, I really hope that she'd try her best to do a good job on her role. I can't wait for the story to pick up its pace from where the child actors have left off since the transition to the adults kinda killed the momentum a little bit. But still, looking forward to Episode 7! :D


Check out the preview below! 


Nok Young: When I am not here, when strangers come, you must hide. Do not let anyone see your face, do not make eye contact with anyone.
Unknown man: You still have that child in your heart?
Yang Myung: It doesn’t matter if she doesn’t even think of me. In the next life, please, can she only look at me?
Wol: I know, I know who that person is in my memories.
Hwon: Is there someone you are waiting for? In the past, could you have met me before?

EPISODE 6 PREVIEW FOR 해를 품은 달 (THE MOON THAT EMBRACES THE SUN)

Episode 6 is when the adult casts comes in and I'm REALLLYYYYYYYYYYYY hoping that they would pick up the pace where the kids have left off. Episode 5 brought in a staggering 24.9% in viewership rating and it's really up to the chemistry of the adults if they wish to continue raising these numbers. I realized that Episode 5 wasn't awfully depressing because Yeon Woo was "dying", but what killed me was watching how deep Hwon and Yeon Woo's affections are for one another. I mean, you can't say that it wasn't love just because they're still young. We've all been young before. And Yeo Jin Goo as well as Kim Yoo Jung's acting was just superb. They're so fantastic to watch, I wished they wouldn't leave. 

EPISODE 6'S PREVIEW


Court Lady: Your highness. Now, you are this country’s Crown Princess.
Bo Kyung: No one will be able to take my place away from me.
Yang Myung: What were you doing when she was straddling between life and death?
Lee Hwon: Brother!
Yang Myung: In the next life, she will be my wife.
Lee Hwon: Does Yeon Woo mean sprinkles (of rain)?
Yeon Woo: Yes, it does.
Lee Hwon: Aren’t you curious? If she was still alive, how do you think she’ll look now?
Yeon Woo: Where are we?
Yeon Woo: And…Who am I?

해를 품은 달 (THE MOON THAT EMBRACES THE SUN) OST PART 2 ENG SUB

린 (Lyn) - 시간을 거슬러 (Back In Time)



LYRICS


구름에 빛은 흐려지고
창가에 요란히 내리는
빗물소리 만큼 시린 기억들이
마음 붙잡고 있는데
갈수록 짙어져간
그리움에 잠겨
시간을 거슬러 없나요
때처럼만 그대 안아주면
괜찮을텐데 이젠
젖어든 빗길을 따라가
함께한 추억을 돌아봐
흐려진 빗물에 떠오른 그대가
눈물 속에서 차올라와
갈수록 짙어져간
그리움에 잠겨
시간을 거슬러 없나요
때처럼만 그대 안아주면
괜찮을텐데 이젠
흩어져가 나와 있어주던 시간도 모습도
다시 때처럼만 그대를 안아서
시간을 거슬러 없나요
한번이라도 마지막일지라도
괜찮을텐데...

해를 품은 달 (THE MOON THAT EMBRACES THE SUN) OST PART 1 ENG SUB

Heora (해오라) - Moonlight Is Setting (달빛이 지고)





*Puuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuutttttssss!* :)

해를 품은 달 (THE MOON THAT EMBRACES THE SUN)

HEY GUYS! :D
I just wanted to share my newest K-drama obsession, The Moon That Embraces The Sun, that is currently still airing on MBC. 


SYNOPSIS:


Yeon Woo who was betrothed to the crown prince, Lee Hwon, was plotted against and believed to be killed by the people who are both jealous and fearful of her beauty and wits when she was just a young girl. Having being saved by a female Shaman after her killers deemed her to be dead, she grew up to become a shaman just like her adopted mother under the name of Wol.

She encounters the adult Lee Hwon who grew up to be a cruel, cold and uncaring after the pain of losing his most beloved Yeon Woo. As Lee Hwon began to return back to his original kind nature due to his love for Wol whom attracted him with her similarities to Yeon Woo, the truth behind the plotting of Yeon Woo’s death comes to light and he finds himself in a difficult position as he realizes his grandmother and sister were involved with it. 



So far, there are only 4 episodes out but I'm totally hooked! They started off with child actors and usually, that would pull the ratings down but not in this case! They surpassed the 20% mark and honestly, the child actors are doing so brilliantly! They're so much fun to watch and they bring so much color to the whole element of innocent, cute and playful puppy love. Not only that, they have a wonderful chemistry going on and I think I'm really enjoying the whole childhood period because it's such a breath of fresh air. 
One word; AWESOME. 

Kim Yoo Jung as the Young Yeon Woo

Yeo Jin Goo as the Young Lee Hwon

Lee Min Ho as the Young Prince Yang Myung

Lim Si Wan (ZE:A) as Young Heo Yeom

Lee Won-Geun as the Young Woon

Kim So-Hyun as the Young Yoon Bo Kyung

Jin Ji Hee as the Young Princess Minhwa

The reason why I HAD TO introduce the young actors to you guys is because they've done an AMAZING job on their roles! I'm actually feeling a little sad that they will be leaving on the sixth episode. I mean, don't get me wrong. I would love to see the adult cast take over and for the plot to thicken, but I have this fear inside me that the adult cast might lack that CHEMISTRY that's needed to make this sageuk one of the best period dramas of 2012. I'm still keeping my fingers and toes crossed that the adults would be as fantastic as the kids. 
PRAY WITH ME! 


Kim Soo Hyun as Lee Hwon

Han Ga In as Wol/ Yeon Woo

Jung Il Woo as Prince Yang Myung

Kim Min-seo as Queen Yoon 

Song Jae Hee as Heo Yeom

Song Jae Rim as Woon

Nam Bo Ra as Princess Min Hwa

Looking forward to many more great episodes WHICH BETTER NOT DISAPPOINT ME and hopefully, we'll get a good ending! 

Teehee! Loving this pair so much! <3

THE PIANO GUYS- PARADISE (PEPONI) FEAT ALEX BOYE

HEY GUYSSSSS! :D
I'm sure many of you are familiar with The Piano Guys because they're oh-so-talented and they TRULY INSPIRE me with their music. When they play, you get a glimpse of their soul that yearns to spread music all around the world. These are what we call true musicians. They have my utmost respect for going out of their way to present us with new, refreshing videos that enables our perception of music to grow and constantly be enhanced. Their music gives me hope and I hope by sharing it here, you would find strength too. 

This time, The Piano Guys did a cover of Coldplay's Paradise with an African twist. It's very soulful and just caught my attention right from the start. I felt like it would be a sin not to share this wonderful cover and I hope that like me, you would find it beautiful. :)

As usual, ENJOY :)

WHO'S YOUR FAVOURITE?

I just found THE MOST ADORABLE CHILD VIDEO EVERRRRRRRRRR! 

Her dad interrogates her asking who's her favourite between him and mom and she definitely has got him wrapped around her fingers. He tried to brain wash his little one and that was so amusing to watch. He's one of the most hilarious dads ever! I would also give credits to his FANTASTIC editing of the video and his QUIRKY captions. This video would definitely put a smile on your face :)

"I'm not picking you up until we get this sorted, okay? It's a battle of wits! 
Me and you."

HAVE A FARTILICIOUS NEW YEAR!

When they say time flies, it literally does!

Here's to our second New Year together at smalldotfarts.blogspot.com! For the endless laughing from our (mostly SJ's) 'Laughter; The Best Medicine' posts to the obviously biased Kpop updates, we've been up mountains and down valleys the past 12 months TOGETHER!

We hope you found strength in our posts when things were rough and laughed so hard when you came across something that tickled us THAT much too!

2012, you better be a kick ass year! 
Especially with all the talk of the end of the world and what not, if you've not started, it's time to 'live like you're dying'!

HAVE AN INCREDIBLE YEAR EVERYONE!!! 
POWER OF THE FARTS!

*Puuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuutttttssss!* :)
