Spring Waltz: that is bunnies

The subtitles continue to entertain. It's a bit bad when I work out that someone is saying that you should be careful and sensitive in dealing with people in love but the subtitles insist otherwise. How I suffer for Daniel Henney. And the astonishingly cute heroine who he won't end up with. But the hero is sort of growing on me too and he does have to deal with mad mum and bonkers fake first love who clearly does not know the meaning of no, so I guess that he deserves someone.

I still can't work out what the subtitles are translating when they have the characters say 'suffer a lot.' They're clearly translating some sort of greeting but I have no idea what. Surely Koreans don't go around telling each other to suffer as a form of hello?

Also if this was on the American telly the slashers would go mad with hero and Philip. There's some very suggestive piano playing scenes... And now a mountain climbing and bandaging hand one.

And since this phrase was used on a subtitle I now really want to use 'that is bunnies' in conversation.

I think I've seen the first couple episodes of this and I agree with you that a)Daniel Henney is awesome and b)the secondary female character is completely nuts. At first, I thought they were using her character to make fun of the true love at childhood cliche, but then the main characters are clearly true love since childhood, so that blows that theory. I also like how the heroine appears to be rather alarmed by Daniel Henney's preternatural hotness and also that he seems to be kind of stalking her.

Your reviews are really entertaining!

DH is quite the best looking thing. It's so funny that everyone - even people who don't like him are forced to say how goodlooking he is!

As for the secondary female, I keep expecting her to whip out the crazy eye of the secondary female from Stairway to Heaven. Just so I'd have visual proof of her insanity.

Yes, Spring Waltz really makes me appreciate the crazy eye acting abilities of that chick from Stairway. She would have been amazing in this role. The only creature who can out-act her is that dramatic prairie dog on YouTube.

The prairie dog could get work in Korean dramas. He could be an evil pet that separates the OTP.

My favourite bit of recent insanity is when hero tells secondary female that he doesn't like her that way and she just says 'I'll pretend I didn't hear that.' A complete and utter nutter.
