Secret Garden Twitter Updates

Whad'ya know? Another celeb tweet. Since I expect many more in the future, I shall regularly update this post. But you guys don't have to dig the archives for it -I'll set it to show up as Latest Posts. And the newest tweets will be on top, with the previous at the bottom.


Tweet #4: Hey, what a surprise! Even Go Hyun Jung is watching SG, is what she tweeted today (16/1/2011). 

Can you guess which one is her? Yep, -she's the one in black jersey with a headband. 


Tweet #3: Looks like someone also agrees with Episode 12's 
The Stare being epic! This time it's Writer-nim's good buddy and actress Kim Jung Eun (who twice starred in the writer's Lovers Trilogy -first being Lovers in Paris and then in Lovers).

This was what she tweeted this morning (20/12/2010):


"Today...SG's ending...is really the best best best!!!!!      I! Love! You! Kim Eun Sook unni! Shin Woo Chul          PD-nim!!! ㅠ ㅜ"

P.S: I ain't kiddin with the amount of !!! she uses. I counted -_-


Tweet #2: About Writer Kim's husband threatening to divorce her if she kills off Joo Won (tee hee. So will the grounds for divorce be "irreconcilable differences"?). Twitted right after Episode 12's broadcast, he said to his writer wifey:
"Will Joo Won die? You'd dare try that? I'll divorce you!" ㅋㅋ
Keke. I like her husband already.



Tweet #1: Park Han Byul is in love with SG...and so is the rest of Korea. Just a tweet from another star who has caught the SG disease. 
She tweeted on the 18th: 
"Today is SG's broadcast day! Aigoo! Foam that makes one completely excited!~"

 And she goes off to do an imitation of Ra Im's foamy lips -_-"

SG Finale Dinner

*Sigh* Don't you wish you were there? The perfect way to end this epic drama - with the stars themselves in Gangnam-gu, Seoul. If this show were aired live here in Malaysia, I would wear an "I LOVE SG" T-shirt, and make my family wear it too while we watch the final episode. Le sigh, wouldn't that be wonderful... let a girl dream, will ya? 


This song is the song in Oska's No Smoking campaign scene (the one where he was singing with the 'lil kids), it's so cute and it IS really a song for a No Smoking campaign:
Smoke Free - U-Kiss 

I'm sure EVERYONE is here at the finale dinner, but I only have the non-main cast here:


Sec. Kim in casual wear. He might as well be wearing a tracksuit.

Mr. Sexy Voice, Lee Byung Joon.

JW's mom. As evil as she was, I'm hoping for a reconciliation so that there'll be a big happy family in the end. 

JW's sis, played by actress Choi Yoon So. So pretty. 

Lee Jong Suk accessorizing: 
For people who want more of the Finale Celebration Dinner, unfortunately I couldn't get more photos (I think it's a close door celebration, perhaps SBS will release it later). But here's a Tudou newsclip on people coming and going. It reminds me of a movie premier:


I dunno where to put this lovely me2day pics posted yesterday, so I'll just place the triplets here:

I don't think I've watch a couple registering for marriage on a kdrama before. But then again, I had many firsts on SG^^
Ha Ji Won looking happy she Just Got Married. Hehe.


More on the Smoke Free Song (can't get enough of it). A Eng subbed MV and The Making Of..., also subbed:

Chloe SaysThinks: Will anyone actually stop smoking because of this? Nah, but it's still the cutest campaign ever!


A news clip featuring the making of the MV:

SG Bye Bye: A Collection of Memorabilia

(Updated!) and An Announcement: There will be a special edition episode of Secret Garden (probably BTS and whatnot) next Saturday (22/1/2011) at 9 P.M.

"All good things come to an end" - but not in kdramaland, I believe. Something that ends always means a beginning of another. I finally caught up with MP, and I'm happy to report: I like it. It's still the level of "like" not "love" though, but that's not the drama's fault, I attribute it to the absence of the Binnie factor.
I love Lee Seol - she's really a metaphor for the sun; such a sunny and nothing-will-bring-me-down disposition. SSH on the other hand, erm...I find no faults in him -he's the cute goodie two-shoes. Therefore, Street Smart vs. Straightlaced = OTP. 

Although...something's been bothering me. Why Mr. Hand Towel? I'm missing an inside joke here, or is it some idiom I'm unaware of?

Anyway, let's take a walk down memory lane....

This is my favorite pic, the three of them having such camaraderie. Must be nice climbing up the mountain in such a happy atmosphere.


Binnie writing his "You jump, I jump" letter...(notice the portable heater warming up his feet? Those are a live saver, I tell you. I would have freeze to death in Japan without 'em)

Binnie in casual tee and pants. Still managed to look sexy nonetheless.

Hey, didn't they had a similar post in some other BTS pic? XD

 Yoon Sang Hyun looks like he's game for a hockey match. 


 Every now and then, female 2nd leads get a worthwhile character instead of a display-on-shelf. Kim Sa Rang is lucky. Let's hope Park Ye Jin gets her worth in MP too. 


Sexy dance with Yoon Sang Hyun. Must be the nicest cameo to do - Baek Ji Young was right not to pass it up. 


Yoo Mi-jin, Hwaiting!
I felt that the previous snapshots of Yoo Mi-jin in the news article didn't do her justice. Here's a clearer picture of the woman behind Ha Ji Won's stunts.

The Awesomest Stickers In The World!
 Oooh! Binnie's passport~
Loved the addition of Cheshire cat there; and if SBS decides to make playing cards featuring Binnie as the King (and YSH as the Joker), I will buy it in a heartbeat.

Spoiler In Words: Secret Garden Episode 19 & 20

If there's one drama I want an extension on, it would be this one. I know there's an unspoken kdrama law against this -if I were to put it into words it would be All Kdramas Extension Suck. But can a SG crack addict help what she feels? No siree. So help me out guys, what's the best substitute for Binnie? 

Spoiler In Words Episode 19

Joo Won gazes at Ra Im's parting figure for a long time, but when she turns back and waves towards him so beautifully, he unconsciously grabs her and tells her he will give her a lift home. To which Ra Im replied, "Why did you came out so late? Come here quickly..." She then asks him to hand over his car keys (because she has an important meeting). Joo Won couldn't get a word in edgewise, he has forgotten all the things he wanted to say...(Ha! Another deja vu. Round two of a screaming Binnie, anyone?)


Spoiler In Words Episode 20
Director Park looks nervously at Joo Won sitting right across him. Joo Won gazes at him coldly. He asks him to go to the highest position, apart from his own (i.e JW's president/ C.E.O position). Seul hands Oska a schedule. Tae Ssun always browbeats Oska and TS sends him out on an errand. After Oska left and leaving the two behind, they begin to throw insults at each other (and Seul has an unexpected rival, hehehe).

SG Updates

(Updated!)

I thought I've turned jaded after my Taiwan trip. My SG friends were telling me, "Prepare to cry your eyes out for 17 and 18!" and I was like, "Where? When?" Is there something wrong with my tear ducts? I was extremely annoyed with the first half of episode 17 - enough with the Evil Mama and the victimized daughter-in-law, please. I was NOT impressed to say the least. But as soon as I was being smug over my newfound crybaby-no-more status, tears started to flow (more like gushed out) like a dam broken.

Second half was sooo sad - I can't remember why though, but how can I not when Binnie is crying? And then, after what seems like an enternity of melo and I was totally dehydrated, a 21-year-old Joo Won came. I never thought I would come to love amnesia story lines, but The Tracksuit came back. Hallelujah (and bye bye nasty purple lace)! 

Newsbites #9: Cyworld snapshots and SG official website goodies:

Secretary Kim ushering the Year of the Rabbit (o^__^o)

Not losing in cute factor is Joo Won's and Ra Im's:



Newsbites #8: Ha Ji Won's gift to SG's crew. Down coats and shoes for the freezing staff.

Newsbites #7: Did you know? (I wouldn't, 'cause I have yet to watch MP). The house featured in MP and SG is one and the same - one as Hae-young's grandfather's house and the other as Joo Won's mom's.

Newsbites #6: A Myoo necklace for the more practical people who thinks stuff toys are a waste of money. 
Made from silver plated platinum and studded with man-made diamonds, this pendant is selling like hot cakes. An official from the jewelry company said, "The success from this Secret Garden merchandise has made us consider a  whole new direction for the company. In the future we will continue to produce more drama related products."

Newsbites #5: Taken on location, two days ago (10/1/2011). 
Scene: Joo Won visits Ra Im's dad
Location: Charnel house

Newsbites #4: A message from Ha Ji Won on the finale:
"It's so cold here on the filming location, brrrr~ㅜㅜ        Not only Jiwon-nim, but the whole cast and crew members are working hard till the end for the finale. How will the end turn out...??? Everyone, please be careful and not come down with a cold~"

Newsbites #3: Technically, it's no news, but it's too pretty not to share. Does Binnie have a sister? If he does, I bet she's real purty...
Joo Won's ideals fantasies, featuring:
Sexy Urban Woman; Intellectual Woman

The daughter from the family of the Top 30 rich list; A cute girl below the age of 24.
Hate to say this, but I think he's even more beautiful and cuter than Ha Ji Won, heh.

Newsbites #2: The letter Jo Won wrote to the brain dead Ra Im on January 8th's broadcast. Joo Won wrote:
 "The window I stood by, you stand by. 
 The bed I lied on, you lay on it.
The books that I read, if you read them...
If we can be together like that,
even if it's only to this degree;
Let's just say we did those (things) together, 
that way we're as happy as any other couple."

In this BTS photo, Hyun Bin is seen wearing a red down jacket, diligently practicing his letter, stroke by stroke.




Newsbites #1: Beta couple goes dating...in public. More (but not clearer) photos of them dating in Myeong-dong. 



 Kim Sa Rang being bashful...
