Re: Always Current Discussions of Different K-Dramas: K-DRAMA VIDEO CLUB! Episodes 13 and 14:
Ep 13:Kang and Mr. Kim get the awards and Kang makes sure that MO and Mr. Moon get one too and that she gets hired back to the company(as a temp) Mr Song gets implicated for the Corp. spy scandal. Mr. Kim reminds him that he was the one who picked the consultants who were later picked up as spys. Mr. Song still has the budget acct. books that MO gave him. He gives them to BS to give to the auditors, but BS gives them to Dir Koo. I love the fight between K and BS ,we get to see the BS fight warm up again and then they fight like girls. BS's dad shows up and BS won't see him (can you blame him?) and K gives him some money. K and MO are supposed to go on a date but he forgets and she is upset. She should have been more upset about that giant bruise on her knee.
Ep 14: Mr Song is transfered and Ms. Nah (who was also in on it) gets fired. Everyone in the office goes out later. MO and HA get into it as usual. But the best has to be K's dance moves!! Hello 1984!!! He was bustin' a move! One of my favorite scenes comes in this episode K and all of the guys trying on the make up to come up with a name for the line. They are some of the ugliest women ever! They come up with Happy Credit. Who would buy make up called Happy Credit?! At the end we get K's English speaking daydream. Very James Bond!

The dream with Kang speaking perfect English and BS in those glasses gazing at his greatness was too funny!
GL-ah - You went and changed your name on me! Now what am I going to do? I think I will just call you GL-ah because Super Rookie-ah is too long to type.
Always Current Discussions of Different K-Dramas: K-DRAMA VIDEO CLUB! Edit: or SR ;)
I'm caught up through episode 14 as well now. Going to watch 15 tonight.
Good recap pooka. You pretty much mentioned everything I was thinking about. The make up scene was hilarious. Min acts so flowery remember when he raised his hand and his facial expression when he was cliaming his suggestion idea (if you don't remember go watch it again (around 41 minutes in). It's worth it! His suggestion was also funny. In our DVDs it was translated as "Sxy house." Was it translated similarly for everyone else?
Kang's friend (gweng pil from pfl) looked frightening in a laugh out loud funny way.
BS continues to annoy me for stealing the idea, and everyone just let him get away with it. I guess they're trying to make a point how common it is within that trapping - or is it perhaps a commentary on the Korean business world?
The scene that I laughed so much about was when Bong-sam was sitting in the toilet with a facial expression that shows he is so consumed with jealousy and incensed about Kang Ho getting all the attention and yet another award. His facial expression doesn't change as he aggressively pull off sheets and sheets of toilet paper.
The subs on the version I'm watching only said that Mr. Song is involved in a scandal and Ms. Nah is also connected to it. That whole thing is also not very clear to me - exactly what the scandal is & what happened.
Ep 14:
I haven't finished watching this episode but I just have to say that I was howling out loudly with tears in my eyes at the scene when some1 pushed Bong-sam to the dance floor. I mean, the way he reluctantly fell forward from the push was funny and then when he started doing his dance moves OMG! I just lost it. I was thinking how his dance partner (was it Hyun-ah? Can't remember now) could even keep a straight face looking at OJH do his bit. OMG! And I thought he was hilarious doing the pre-fight warm up kicks, but his dance moves top it all! He is soooo funny. I saw him on Second Proposal, and he made me laugh there but not as much as he makes me howl in this series. I hope Oh Ji Ho continues to do comedic parts because comedy suits him well, imo. He just did this drama called Autumn Shower, and I think his role there is a serious one. People hacked his acting into pieces as well as the drama.

SuperRookie, you're a dude right? It's so funny you would ask why Mi Ok is so cranky after being stood up!! For a chick to glam it all up and then not have the dude show up for the date and not call, well that's a deal breaker!! She went to the trouble of picking out a special outfit from her collection of ho duds, putting on special makeup from her selection of samples, wearing jewelry for nothing! Yikes! I would have sent the big bar lady after Kang Ho for revenge!Yeah I am. You bring up a good point and honestly that aspect sorta slipped my mind when I typed the above comments. But at the end of the day it just isn't logical, I mean it was something that can't be helped.
*note to self: don't stand up women/forget to call on date night, if late*
Re: Always Current Discussions of Different K-Dramas: K-DRAMA VIDEO CLUB! Hey Buppy with your translations the bar would be The Foxy Secretary! That is a pretty good name for a host bar.
Bong Sam dances almost as good as Sam Soon! In the interviews in the extras disc Oh Ji Ho said that was his favortite scene in the show to film. PFl didn't he sing in Second Proposal too? I saw the picture of him singing at last years KBS awards.
I guess the name for the make up Happy Credit was better than Sexy House or Club Bodacious, their other ideas. I am not putting anything with those names on my face.

Always Current Discussions of Different K-Dramas: K-DRAMA VIDEO CLUB! I assume the name Happy Credit is making fun of the real world makeup line Beauty Credit (shilled for by Hyun Bin in a number of adorable cfs). Maybe the english word "credit" has come to have some special meaning in Korea relating to attractiveness? And I assume that LK Corp is supposed to be standing in for the real world Korean giant LG Corp. Those are my guesses! But I don't know about any real world business scandals either.
I got a big kick out of hearing Eric speak perfect English in the James Bond scene. Remember all the speculation during Phoenix about why a guy who attended HS in CA didn't seem to be able to speak English? I guess he was ACTING!
Always Current Discussions of Different K-Dramas: K-DRAMA VIDEO CLUB! Eric has that kyo po look about him (KYO PO = Asian American.)
I thought he had spent some time in the US! Do you know where he lived in CA?
Always Current Discussions of Different K-Dramas: K-DRAMA VIDEO CLUB! YAH, Poooooooooooookaaaaahhhhhh!
She's in charge of all questions relating to Eric's CA experience, as evidence indicates that their fates became intertwined at that time.
Re: Always Current Discussions of Different K-Dramas: K-DRAMA VIDEO CLUB! Yeah , Yeah, the Eric thing again. Eric lived and went to school about 5-10 minutes away from my house here in Fullerton. He went to Sunny Hills High. Whoo, Go Lancers!!!! Which is why he can speak English that we can understand (not so much in Phoenix) and poor Bong Sam can't. I love that BS even says "yes I speak very good english" Oh, you do?!
