2PM 8 year anniversary by Rebekah Walton
As I have mentioned in a previous post, 2PM is my ultimate bias group. When I started to get into kpop back in 2013, they were the only group I listened to. Today, is their 8 year anniversary which means they are getting to be one of the old fogies of the kpop world still going. There are of course others, Shinwa, Super Junior and Big Bang. But, 2PM for me has always been at the heart and they were the reason I entered into to kpop in the first place. Here for their 8th anniversary they wanted to thank their fans because they would not be in Korea for the anniversary so they held these signs up at the airport.
"2PM <3 HOTTEST. Thank you for our 8th anniversary. Forever just like this. Promise!"

Scarlet Heart Ryeo........by Rebekah Walton
Some people will have watched the Chinese version this Korean remake is based on. Some people prefered that one over the Korean version and some people just thought they were different. But, while I was watching the Korean version I was thinking about if I were sent back in time.
Frankly, I would not want to be sent back into to the begining of America, the clothes weren't as cool, but, maybe the Oregon Trail time period would be okay. But, let us say I was sent back in time in Korea to the Goryeo Time period which this Korean drama is set in. What would I do? Well, to be be fair, probably no one would notice me or fall in love with me.
I would probably spend all my time sitting around or dancing around the fancy clothes I was wearing, and I would spend little time trying to change history because bad things always happen when you try to do that. I was thinking about writing this whole drama as if I were the main character. After this drama is done of course. But, I would like to point out that a number of things would not happen because I would not try to get back. We will have to see how it goes, I will get done with the first episode soon and post with a link attached here.

Kdramas...kpop idols....Bad acting? by Rebekah Walton
Okay, first I would like to say maybe I am not the best judge of acting or whether it is bad or not, because I have no clue how to act at all most of the time, and people say I react weirdly in real life and do not act like normal people. But, frankly, most people who are so called ''bad actors'' I cannot tell at all. I have no clue how to identify these people at all. A lot of people comment on a kdrama and tell me that a kpop star in it is a bad actor or something, and I haven't seen anything that would make them think this way. Frankly, as long as you are not saying your lines and your stage directions such as Gag Concert or you do not happen to be as bad as any of the actors and actresses (excluding Sterling Knight, and the uncle) in Elle: A Modern Cinderella Tale, you are a good enough actor for me. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Zzw0zUQoPB4
That's the trailer, you can also watch the full film on youtube for free, and no one cares. I am not a good actresses and therefore how can I even judge acting that is better than what I can do, in fact, how can anyone else judge the actors if they cannot do it themselves. But, this may sound like I see bad acting for what it is and don't care and that is not true. I cannot even tell bad acting when I see it, unless it is as bad as the movie mentioned above. To me, if a certain character acts a certain way, that is the way their character acts and it is normal.
Some people say well, bad acting occurs when you cannot feel with the character, but, I do not remeber a character I have not felt with unless they were annoying or evil, and then I just feel annoyed, but, then again shouldn't you feel annoyed it has nothing to do with bad acting or not. So, I have no clue what anyone is talking about when they say someone is a bad actor, if an actor acts immature and over the top, isn't their character just immature and over the top, why would that be bad acting. If an actor has no expression in certain situations, isn't that the character?
There are characters like this. I did not write the script and I do not act like most people so, why would I assume that this character would be normal or have a normal reaction (whatever that is or means, I cannot tell you if that is normal or not, nor do I believe that there is a normal person in this world.). So, if you say a person is a bad actor because they kissed weirdly or it did not look natural, or they had a blank expression the entire time, or was stiff, how can you be the judge of that? (Not that I could even tell that even if someone pointed it out.)Maybe, the director or scriptwriter wanted that type of character. How can you know what they were told to do when they were acting? How do you know that this is not how that character would react?
Also, I wanted to mention for those who like Fantastic I am currently annoyed with the main girl. In the episode I watched, eventhough the main character knew he was bad at acting and wanted help, she just laughed at him and did not even pick up his phone calls. She needs to get over that grudge and move on and help him out, it's not even worth it to hold a grudge for that long. Eventhough some people may have found this first episode funny, I did not I was depressed the whole time and definitely was piting the main guy who our girl was laughing at for his bad acting.
I mean, it's really rude to do that to him, and I hated the fact that they are going to get together, he is so much better than her. She does not deserve him. It is unfair to laugh at a guy who just needs some guidance in acting and would love some help. Stop Laughing help him out already! Ugh, that is so annoying, if I asked for help in acting please give me help instead of laughing at me. I know I am bad, just help me out, give me an example to go by and maybe a mirror to practice in. But, I am going to have to continue watching this drama for Ji-soo, maybe I will skip parts with the main girl.

Second Lead Syndrome? by Rebekah Walton
What is Second Lead Syndrome? If you had asked me this question before She was Pretty came out, I would have responded with the answer, ''When you feel sorry for the second lead man and want him to get together with the main girl. You do not like the first lead as much as the second lead and your hope for him is the happy ending for the main couple. In other words, you wish he were the main lead.''
I also, would have probably mentioned I have never felt this way. Sure, I have felt sorry for second leads, such as Kim Woo Bin in ''The Heirs'', and Lee Hyun Woo in ''To the Beautiful You.'' But, I have always wished them to get someone else not the main girl. Both of them had really good options. Kim Woo Bin and Rachel are still adorable in Heirs and they should have put them together. Lee Hyun Woo had the childhood friend who played violin.
But, since the drama She was Pretty, my thoughts on Second Lead Syndrome and what it is, have become confused.
Like everyone else who watch She was Pretty, I grew to love Siwon's character. In fact, considering that Siwon is a Christian in real life and a guy I would considering marrying if I had the chance, I really wanted to marry the man. I thought, ''Let the girl have her first lead, I don't want him, I want to marry Siwon.'' I did not feel sorry for Siwon, I just wanted to marry him. Is this Second Lead Syndrome? I thought Second Lead Syndrome was when you wanted the main girl to get the second lead. I did not want her to get the second lead, I wanted to marry him instead.
According to the Urban Dictionary: (Yes, I know, how accurate is that? Similar to Wiki I guess.)
Wanting so desperately for the lead actress of a drama to end up with the better guy, but you always know that she is going to end up with the lead bad guy in the end. Usually goes with the feelings of either wanting to curl up and cry over your ramen, knock someone's teeth in or both.
But, this was not the case. Instead, I wanted to marry the second lead and let the main couple live happy ever after. I did not even feel depressed for him or cry over him not getting the girl. I was happy that he was so awesome and I just wanted to love me. Is this also Second lead syndrome?
