Love You - Episode 6 (Synopsis)

I've gone totally "gaga" in Drunken To Love You - mode, and I'm not even watching the show..

Anyways, since most of you guys out there are, I assumed a synopsis wouldn't hurt?

Thanks to Koala's Playground:

Written preview for episode 6 of DTLY:

Who is the third party here?

To shed the pain of the past, Jie Xiu and Xiao Ru, this fake wedded couple, go on a honeymoon. What is unexpected is that Jie Xiu, who is capable of cutting one-liners that can kill a person with frustration, when he decides to be romantic, is capable of sweet nothings that can kill a person with tenderness. With the help of Jie Xiu, Xiao Ru starts to gradually forget the pain of her failed love. What is waiting for her is a series of surprises arranged by Jie Xiu.

Avril sees Jie Xiu and Xiao Ru’s growing intimacy with each other. Her jealousy flares up and turns her into a vengeful goddess. Right when Avril is about to disrupt, Rickie stops her. Rickie’s overreaction to Avril’s third-party interloper ways appear to be connected with a very painful memory for him.

On the other hand, as their honeymoon winds to a close, Jie Xiu and Xiao Ru’s feelings for each other are increasing rapidly. Facing one interaction after another that affects their emotions, the two of them can no longer avoid the truth that they affect each other. Under the influence of alcohol, ardor wins over sanity. On this night, they decide to throw the covenants of their contract out the window, wanting only to completely possess the other person……

Sunny Happiness - Episode 14

Okay, according to a news article, Mei Le, Go will air on 5 June 2011. So this means Sunny Happiness has two more episodes. I did wonder how they could possibly squeeze everything into one episode..

They almost had it. She had her reply typed and everything, then Wan Lan happened.. Argh, hated her so much in these episodes. - This is despite not being a die-hard YY & YJ shipper. She's just annoying. This was probably one of the parts of the overall plot that didn't sit too well with me. I was like, what they hadn't overcome enough already?!

I honestly hated Xin Jie a bit for causing the accident too. But then Yun Chao confessed and I felt kinda bad for her. No, she didn't do it on purpose, and while it has nothing to do with Yong Yong, she will be severely punished later. (Am I revealing too much?)

Has everyone taken a peek at the mainland Chinese version, or are some of you still faithfully waiting for the TW version?

Fan Fan & Blackie's wedding (Song of the Day)

I know this is practically ancient news, (okay maybe not ancient, but to the newsworld it's old), but I'm just so happy for this couple :D

Fan Fan & Blackie married on May 7th, 2011.

I hardly know Blackie, he's always just been Fan Fan's boyfriend to me, don't watch variety shows, so don't really know much about him. But I do know he seems to love Fan Fan very much, and I saw his proposal on youtube and now seeing bits of their wedding.

Fan Fan & Blackie dated for 10 years before tying the knot. They're pretty much the golden couple in Taiwan, and with good reason, they're über cute xD

The media was present at their wedding, as they've always been open about their relationship, and let's face it. As if the media would stay away anyway, it would just end up like Barbie Hsu's wedding..

Anyways, a music video was released of their wedding, including one of Fan Fan's songs. A very nice melody and sweet lyrics too ^_^

I wish Fan Fan & Blackie all the happiness in the world! :D

I was so touched by Blackie's wedding vows, how he had dreamt of that day for the past 10 years, marrying Fan Fan was a blessing and gift from God. - Fan Fan went a little teary too :) He also had to scream "I do" because his mic wasn't working.

Song name: The Most Important Decision
Artist: Christine Fan Wei Qi (Fan Fan).

Let me know if you want a to download the song :)

If you're interested in seeing the proposal, I embedded it below:

Introduction - Mei Le, Go (Love Keeps Going)

Since Sunny Happiness ends in two weeks (at least I believe so), Mei Le, Go will take over their Sunday slot.



For Mike He fans - look forward to it, he's in this one too.
Generally I do like Mike He, although I find his characters are always so similar, I wish he would do something a bit more challenging.

As for Cyndi Wang, I don't really have an opinion of her. I think I've watched like one drama with her, and it was a while ago. She didn't blow me away back then, and don't assume she will this time either.

Details:

Title: Love Keeps Going or Mei Le, Go.
Chinese title: 美乐。加油 (Pinyin: Mei Le, Jia You)
Genre: Romance/Comedy

Cast:
Mike He as Han Yi Lie
Cyndi Wang as Cha Mei Le
Eli Shi Yi Nan as Han Yi Feng

Synopsis, thanks to AF
Cha Mei Le is an ordinary Hakka girl who believes that if we work hard there will be good things happen. As she loves Han Yi Feng so much, she leaves her career and helps his boyfriend open a bakery. After discovering he is cheating on her, she is comforted by Yi Feng’s younger brother, Han Yi Lie, who is very hostile and hard to interact with, but his eccentric personality has bowed to Mei Le’s toasts and he becomes soften because he sees Mei Le’s sincerity. The weird thing is Yi Lie can’t compose before he ate her toasts. Unfortunately, Mei Le disappeared when he realized that he’s already fell in love with her.

Will Yi Lie meet Mei Le once again? Or when Yi Lie met Mei Le, she already has someone beside her?

So yay, or nay?
My first instinct to the trailer was, what is the name of that song? ^_^

Sunny Happiness - Episode 15 (Preview # 1)

I think... I became neutral towards the pairings when I saw Yun Jie cry... Throughout most of the drama he was just a bit too composed and passive for my taste, whereas Yun Chao was most actively pursuing what he wanted. But then Yun Jie finally spoke up, then Wan Lan came in - annoying twit, if you ask me. But when he shed actual tears, I was convinced he loved her..

So I absolutely don't mind Yun Jie & Yong Yong, I just feel bad for Yun Chao..

Enough babbling, preview:

Yun Jie & Yong Yong were, admittedly pretty cute in the beginning of this episode... But I LOVED Yun Chao & Yong Yong's scenes more. It's probably one of my favourite episodes in terms of YC&YY :) The scenes in the theme park were über cute.

Manager (?): Once you saw Tang Ai Wei's photo, you agreed to film this movie immediately.
Tom Price (forgot his character's name): She's a totally different person from Sandy.

SJX: This time, I'm completely awoken. I don't need you anymore. Because there's someone who cares for me more than you do.

SJX: What are you doing now? You know very well that you should give up, yet you draw wound upon wound on your heart. I'm telling you, you deserve it! A person who can only live in the past can never reach the future.

TAW: You're making a big deal out of such a small matter now. Is it because you've fallen for her already, right?!

SJX: I may not be able to bear the sadness and sorrow for you, but at least in the coming days, I can lend my happiness to you.

Sunny Happiness - All episodes w. subs

I'm not sure I should be doing this, then again.. A quick search and you can find it yourself...

The Chinese version of Sunny Happiness - slightly different, more conservative.. You know the drill. But a few of you have been asking for it. I'm assuming us English-speaking people won't be able to do much of a difference for the Taiwanese ratings anyway...

I previously posted an English version of the TW version. The subber has sadly, decided not to sub anymore. S/he referred to these links on viki.

There is another group who might sub the TW version, but until then, please refer to the links on Viki.

SJX: Ethan Ruan was Fated to Love You, but I, Song Jie Xiu, am Fated to Utter Misfortune!

TAW: What are you guys doing?!

TAW: Isn't Jie Xiu a bit overly concerned for her?

MJ: I'm sorry that I have to do this kind of thing to you upon the first time we meet.
Peggy: Hey, open the door!
MJ: Ms Peggy, don't panic! If you panic, I'll panic along with you! (*same word is used for the urge to go to the loo...)

LXR: Did you see that? Even you know Yi Xiang doesn't eat seafood; yet Peggy's feeding him prawns!

RYX: So what? Can we only be together if she knows me as well as you do?

Peggy: If she won't give up like she says, can you be sure that you will not waver?
RYX: Isn't this kind of guarantee enough?!

SJX: Now all Ren Yi Xiang has to do is to sneeze and he can blow you anywhere. An amoeba that is without dignity and is merely shaped by others like you is the lowest form of life in love.

Song of the Day - Raymond Lam ft Charlene & Hurts

Actually make that two songs :)
I thought I'd share two songs in different languages to get some variation.

PS: Cerulean, if you're still reading - they might be interesting for you ;)
I finally replied to the comment you left ages ago.. Sorry for the massive delay.

The songs:

Song # 1:
Have Always Been Here by Raymond Lam & Charlene Choi.

Download it here

A nice duet, IMO. The MV is a little odd, but I quite like the song. Been listening to it for months now. I'm still amazed by the fact that I haven't grown tired of it yet.

Song # 2:
Stay by Hurts

Download it here

I'm still secretly laughing at the band's name "Hurts". At first I thought that was the song's title, but no.. The band is called "Hurts". Nice song my sister heard on Vampire Diaries and passed onto me. :)

What do you think? - And what are you listening to?
