So I succumbed and I am trying to simultaneously prepare for work tomorrow and watch East of Eden, a Korean dorama of much angst, manpain, womanpain, and skullduggery.

Let me know how that works out for you.

For some reason joining doesn't work so well on the mac, so I have skipped forward from halfway through episode 1 to 3. Very fast moving that way!

OH yes. So much angst, yelling (oh, the yelling), revenge, crying, fighting, jeez. If Lee Da Hae wasn't in this I don't know if I would have started watching it.

Man, the amount of times the heroes get beaten up is astonishing; it must be at least twice an episode for Dong Chul. So far, though, I am less excited by the female characters - all of them. Mainly they seem to be there to need being saved, which might be a result of the writers wanting to have an excuse to write yet one more fight for the heroes and thus get them beat up good again.

Ahahahahahahaha. And the man/womanpain only increases as the episodes go on. It's as if it was written be a Russian novelist who, however, had an un-Russian fixation on hot men taking their shirts off while angsting about injustices.

The sheer amount of blood shed in this is astonishing. How is Dong Chul still alive at this stage? You think the blood loss alone would get him, even if he apparently has a head made of steel.

Do you want links to the eps uncut, in one file?

Or you can watch them streaming and subbed on viikii.

Ooh could you link me? My Mac seems to be iffy on rejoining files; sometimes it works and sometimes it doesn't.
