Movies. Music. Words. Dramas. Fanfic. Life. Everything in between. I ship reel and real people. Dripping with sarcasm 90% of the time. A ShinLee apologist.
Best thing abt Hospital Playlist for me is the effort of the show to highlight irl characters who arent well-represented in dramas, like Jang Gyeoul. She's not bubbly, doesnt care abt her looks, wears the same type of seasonal clothes all yr round, doesnt have many friends and
Her story can be everyone else's story - an ordinary woman who leads a seemingly ordinary life, sometimes misunderstood, rarely recognized, at times prejudiced, but she carries her burdens well & like the rest of us, she also fights for the life & love she deserves.
doesnt exist to please others. She's blunt & pragmatic & certainly not the type who pukes rainbows & sunshines wherever she goes. But she's a hard worker, honest, tenacious, fierce, & very resilient. She's a lone wolf who doesnt back down from life's blows.
Every crown prince out there be so sure of their names...then there's Lee Yul, the amnesiac crown prince, who's still listing down his possible names. ๐คฃ
I don't really know when Jeongwon first fell for Gyeoul but I'm sure that at this moment, in front of his mom, he fell for her all over again. Maybe even harder than he already is. It's written all over his face.
I like how Kyungsooโs kiss scenes seem to follow a progression through the years - from that pure & chaste umbrella kiss to college pub date kiss to war-time tap dance sneak kiss to Joseon-era husband & wife full deep kiss.
The sequence & gradual build up of the kisses -an art.
makes sure to tell her beautiful meaningful story slowly, gradually, as the seasons change. She represents the "ordinary"unseen women out there who dont fit the heroine archetype yet are true heroines on their own. And that includes having the unlikely prince charming, iykwim.
Everyone prolly knows someone like her -- the quiet, reserved girl, the stoic colleague, the tactless friend, the one you'd never think to be a protagonist of her own story, let alone be worthy of a lovelife. She just doesnt fit the part, you'd say. But she does, and the show
This photo reminds me of that Vlive cooking show he did where he asked his mom while cooking, "Are you watching this mom? Am I doing okay, mom?" ๐ญ
Omonim, you've raised such a fine young man for a son. You should do a master class on how to raise a good son. ๐
when ppl say nah, he's too busy to date, she has lots on her plate right now... i tend to agree but then i remember Sooyoung started dating Kyungho at the peak of being SNSD and i laugh. yeorobun, when it matters to you, you make time. as jjs said ๐ถ has 48 hrs in a day.๐คญ
Long winter seonsaeng. When Ikjun called her that who would've thot that it perfectly described her life before she met Jeongwon? It has really been a long, dark winter for Gyeoul - the blunt, stoic, "plain" & most misunderstood charac in Yulje. Now we know why she is like that.
Thereโs a Japanese phrase that I like: koi no yokan...Itโs closer to love at second sight. Itโs the feeling when you meet someone that youโre going to fall in love with them. Maybe you donโt love them right away, but itโs inevitable that you will. - Nicola Yoon
G'morning ๐
Dear 2019 Ahn Jeongwon, be careful with your words. You're a doctor, as you said you must take responsibility to everything that you say.
I hope Ikjun or Junwan will make you remember abt what you said abt Gyeoul on your wedding day. ๐
what if the one that gave the cake to minha is not really the chef but seokhyeong? because he felt bad turning her down so he called the restaurant? you know like how he felt bad for her doing all the job before so he gave her tteokbokki secretly?
Will always be soft for this moment ๐ฅบ we did not see this in the drama but they serve us in real. Them laughing tgt watching a tv show. Colleagues that really became family, these three. Like how KHS sees ๐ถ as her son, I think she also sees ๐ฐ as her DIL. They are so precious.
This Kyungsoo on July 14, 2018 Elyxion dot in Seoul is his peak gorgeous-dude-in-a-plain-white-shirt mood. He was glowing.
And I have a good guess why. ๐
"Please treat me out to dinner this weekend, not in these scrubs but in our personal clothes, outside the hospital, just the two of us." Fine dining version. They look luxurious and every inch the beautiful power couple they are meant to be here. ๐คง

G'morning, love. โค๏ธโ๐ฅ
In 1999, when AJW entered med school in SNU, a li'l girl in Gwangju was going thru a cycle of domestic abuse at the hands of her own dad that would last for years.
In 2005, when AJW started his journey as a med doctor, a teenage girl in Gwangju dreaded going home every day to
The ult friendship goals in Hospital Playlist. Childhood to second childhood besties. To reach their age and still be the best of friends. That's one in a million. I just wish Chairman Ju's sons could treat him better. ๐ฅบ He deserves better.
S1 WG was Gyeoul falling for Jeongwon. Thru her lens, we learned about him, his family, his friends, his dreams & his weaknesses. We didnt know much abt Gyeoul except how she is as a resident & as a woman who is falling in love for perhaps the very first time. The focus was on ๐ฟ
It's offically two years since this modern-day couple popped out of nowhere for a cameo, fresh from their sageuk roles as Wondeuk and Hongshim.
Kyungsoo & Jihyun really fulfilled the fans' thirst to see them as a married couple, not only in Joseon but in present day Korea. ๐
Stanning D.O. as a kpop idol takes a lot of getting used to as I first loved him as the actor Kyungsoo. But backtracking thru his discography in the past 7 years showed me not just an idol but an artist just waiting for the right time to break away from the mould he's in
no but she really just sat there & let him come to her. if he was just a sunbae, she'd quickly be on her feet to greet him as a good hoobae would. but i guess radio DJ's hunch was right...oppa went to her first as she knew he would, like he always does. ๐ฅบ
y'know you're w/ the right one & it's for keeps when your friends already see you & your s/o as a unit & her name comes up in convos like she's their friend as well, like an extension of you. Jeongwon's bffs are as whipped for Gyeoul as JW himself. ๐ฅบ
"Iโm tough."
"I know you are."

G'morning to your toughest one. ๐ฅน
This cracked me up then but looking back now, it's not really that funny anymore, is it? Rosa's forgetfulness (and looming illness) was starting to manifest itself since S1E6 ๐ฅบ
Once in awhile, out of the multitude of kdrama characters Iโve seen, a character like Jang Gyeoul would jump out unexcpectedly from the writerโs imagination and capture my โค๏ธ. Gyeoul is that wallflower youโd never think would steal hearts but does when you least expect her to be
if you think shinlee is in the business of changing their story's plot to accommodate viewers' whims or base the devt of their story on the popularity of a character, then you clearly havent heard of Chilbong, Jungpal and Hanyang.
Jeongwon being self aware that he just cracked a lame joke and apologizing for it & she declaring that he's the funniest person she knows. (I object on behalf of Ikjun!) But ofc as a philosopher often asks, "you find his lame jokes funny, don't you?"
Idk abt you but those eyes are giving off that "I want to eat your omma's kimchi for the rest of my life and wear all the handmade scarves she'll make for the both of us if you'll have me" vibe.
He's a goner. Game over. I'm sorry if that's bad news for y'all. But it's a fact. ๐
No oppa deserves your utmost loyalty and sanity, kids. Grieve if you must. But don't be blind and coddle a wrongdoing. You wouldnt want what he did to his victim to happen to you, to your sister or to your girl friends.
Just thinking that Hyunbeen filmed two dramas simultaneously, slipping in and out of character as Gyeoul and Haewon for more than half a year. I can't even imagine how physically, mentally & emotionally exhausting that was. I'm so proud of my girl! ๐ฅฒ
Their kiss scenes are certainly convo-starters & swoon-worthy but it's the little simple things he does for her that subtly hints how she has taken over his life. Catering to her comes easy as breathing. He isn't just in love, he loves her. Devotedly & hopelessly so. ๐ฅบ
tbh, idc about what everyone says abt me shipping wg/sb coz i only listen to these big 4 majority stockholders. they obv know what's up more than anyone. so i take my cue from them, no one else's. ๐คญ
Master clown has two kinds of smiles. 1st - he smiles with his mouth slightly open showing his teeth and eyes wide open. 2nd - his eyes turn into crescents and his lips curl up contentedly into a gentle closed-mouth smile ๐
If you say a man and a woman posing with the bride and groom alone are just friends, it's clear you havent attended weddings where they do this yet. ๐ to pose with the b&g like that is hella awkward if you're not together together iykwim & rude if ppl push you to do it.
The way she looked at him and indulged his cheekiness. The progression evident on her face like how a mom indulges her 5-yr old. ๐ why do they give the vibe that she has seen this side of him way too many times so she knows she ought to steer him back to reality. ๐
Imagine being that guy who can do anything (start a fire, woodwork, farm, cook, make coffee, etc. all without proper sleep) except tie/fix your own damn hat. What a scam.
A typical morning at the Ahns' apartment in California, perhaps? I can see them horsing around like this. ๐ญ Pls eggiscoming/Shin PD, give these two a WG romcom spin-off as they requested.
WAIT. This is Jeongwon's office right? Also the place where the confession kiss took place. Also the one which Shin PD said is too cramped a space they could not do a making video of their first kiss. ๐ฅธ
What a scam you are PDnim.
Look at them talking about how precious their bond is, not just them 99z but all the other actors like Hyunbeen, Eunjin, Junhan, etc. and how they find the time to hang out amid their busy schedules. ๐ญ and them still clamoring for s3 too like the rest of us ๐ฅน Ilovethemsomuch ๐ฅฐ
From these pics alone it's easy to see how Jang Gyeoul owned s2ep10. Won't ever stop gushing how ShinLee really gave her a story that is both inspiring and riveting. She's that charac you're not meant to like at first sight. And that's comforting bc arent most of us like that?
Oppa sharing his personal tumbler with Been is peak ao3 ff staple but who would have thot he's out to make it a reality and have it aired? ๐คญHe even had to run back to the house just to make them tea pls. Daebak~๐are you lurking? do you need some more romantic inspirations?
Remember when we lost our minds over her flipping his ID like we were ready to fly to the moon & back? Now they are even attending weddings together. ๐ญ
Captions be calling Yeonseok by his real name when he arrived but switches to Ahn Jeongwon when they want to push their GyeoulJeong agenda. I see what you did there, Na PD & team.
No but these are just the sort of pics Jeongwon would definitely display on his office desk (and the kind of photos Yeonseok would gatekeep in his phone) ๐คฃ๐คญ so candid, so real and heartwarming
I just realized that out of all Been's works so far, Hospital Playlist is the only one that didnt highlight her physical beauty. Jang Gyeoul was all abt heart, courage, spirit & wit. Never abt outward appearances. She was beautiful like that. ๐ฅบ
