Day 10: Rewatched #TheLoveDuel, #RipeForThePicking, and #SchoolNurseFiles. Often when I recommend something to someone later on, I like to rewatch to see if they are as good as I remember. These are short, so it's easy to rewatch. TLD & RFTP I'd rewatch anytime. 🥰

Prince Chen holds Shen Juan Juan gently to comfort her. She is safe resting in his arms. They are backlit and light bleeds into the scene through light blue gray curtains. This is from the mini cdrama The Love Duel. Kagiya Senri kisses Kosaka Maiko as he holds her head gently in his hand. His other hand grasps her upper arm to bring her closer. He wears a backpack as they've just stepped inside her door. This if from the jdrama Ripe For The Picking. An Eun-young rests a light-up, plastic, toy sword on her shoulder as she looks towards a jelly in a dark-lit hallway. Hong In-pyo looks at her curiously, wondering what she is doing. They stand inside a doorway that leads to the hallway. This is from the kdrama School Nurse Files.

Day 9: Some of my top faves from past years that I watched this year are #DoubleLife #TheLoveDuel #YouAreMyLoverFriend #DreamingOfAFreakingFairyTale, & #Reset. I highly recommend them all depending on one's taste, DOFF has a small lame moment, otherwise smart/🤣.

Yun Shang rests in the arms of Duke Wu Luan, her lover. Her delicate hand rests on his chest. She looks entranced as his lips are so close to hers, about to touch. He wears a black robe open at his chest and she, a black top with a little light-colored embroidery. This is from the mini cdrama Double Life. Shen Juan Juan kisses Prince Chen as beautiful sun rays wash over their faces. Both their eyes are closed and the scene seems lovely both in feeling and visually. Lyrics say, "Diving deep into no man's sea." This is from the mini cdrama The Love Duel. Jiang Shi Yan leans out the window of his car and touches his forehead to Tang Yang's as light filters in between them from a street light behind them. His eyes are closed, and they are communing with each other. Her hand rests on his neck. Lyrics say, "Can you chase away my fear?" This is from the cdrama You are My Lover, My Friend. Sin Jae-Rim falls on top of Moon Cha-Min in the bathroom and he imagines they are making out. He reaches up around her to embrace her as they kiss. Her hand rests on the ground behind him. This is from the kdrama Dreaming of a Freaking Fairytale.

Day 8: Fave 2ndary character: #MuCiLing was so fabulously unhinged! #LiDaiKun seemed to relish his role portraying him as deranged, complete with a convincingly evil laugh—a feat that's hard to do—& transforming him into a victim too, who merely wanted to be free.
#cdrama #EYDC2025 #BloodRiver #暗河传
Mu Ci Ling stands with his sword resting on his shoulders amd a calm expression on his face. He wears a black hat and red robes with decorative gold embellishments. This is from the cdrama Blood River. Mu Ci Ling stands with his sword in hand & orange magic swirling around himself amidst a battle. He wears a black hat and red robes with decorative gold embellishments. This is from the cdrama Blood River. Mu Ci Ling holds his hands outstretched and palm down as orange magic swirls around him.

It's the 40th anniversary of Tim Curry's biggest day at the box office with the simultaneous release of Clue and Legend. Dec 13, 1985! We have 4 Curry-related books, including signed editions of @johnhatch.bsky.social's account of Clue's production. Link: mzs.press/search?keywo...
The cover of Rocky Horror, a book of photographs from the production of the film, by acclaimed photographer Mick Rock. The cover features a tight close-up of Tim Curry as Dr. Frank N. Furter, in black and gray, with the lips red. The cover of the Rocky Horror Cookbook: So Savory, Sweet, Seductive Recipes from the Cult Musical--an illustration of Tim Curry in cost him is Dr. Frank, and further, with a string of pearls, a lace-trimmed black bodice, black panties with a little grey bow, black mesh garters, and black evening gloves. Frank is smiling at us as he throws the switch on a sinister-looking unit of laboratory equipment with a hose that leads to a metal cauldron of bubbling green fluid. The cover of actor Tim Curry's memoir Vagabond, about his life and his adventures in show business. The cover is a black and white photograph of Curry as a young man sitting on a wooden deck with a stretch of English landscape in the background, very misty and wintry. Curry is wearing a dark windbreaker and black jeans, a paisley shirt, and long scarf that appears to be hand knitted. The wind is blowing his hair. Cover of "What Di You Mean, Murder? Clue and the Making of a Cult Classic," an account of the making of the movie by John Hatch. Red and white text on a black background, with close-up of an ominous looking pipe wrench dominating the lower half of the composition.

Day 7: I accidentally posted my favorite character on the wrong day, so, lucky me, I get to post him again: #SuChangHe from #BloodRiver. A light-hearted yet deadly assassin, he's an unusual front-runner for me, but was so delightful & intriguing that I want to see more. #attitude #cdrama #EYDC2025

Wen Yi Fan's face is reproduced in overlapping repetition. Here expression seems a little downcast yet calm and it looks like she is covered by a blanket or sweater. This is from the cdrama The First Frost. Red and blue light cross each other to form a blurry "X" shape in a room interior. Warm candles are seen in the foreground. This is from the cdrama Fated Hearts. Water-formed dagger or sword tips embed in a tree that is covered with moss. This is from the cdrama Blood River.

Day 5: Favorite Character: #SuChangHe from #BloodRiver amused me, intrigued me, & was a mysterious force at work in the shadows. His cavalier attitude hid his depth, his role as a supportive, strong constant for all those in Dark River who sought a new shore.

Day 4: Favorite song: #FindMyWayBackToLife by #JenniferFoster from #TheWhiteOliveTree
#OST. Poignant, cutting, relatable, & emotional this song wove through the #cdrama as a reminder that we can all feel adrift, unconnected, & struggle to find our lives, our home.

Day 3: Favorite Actor Found: #WangXuan grabbed my attention with #GrabYourLove & kept it with #DoubleLife & #TheLoveDuel. He consistently delivers watchworthy kiss scenes. Here's hoping he receives full-length #cdrama projects to gain more experience. Might I suggest romances? #王轩 #EYDC2025 #cdramas

Day 2: Favorite Actress Discovered: #LiQin 's portrayal of #FuYixiao in #FatedHearts was fabulous! She was a badass, a beauty, as well as both a gentle & vicious person. She embodied the character so well! Brava! 👏 I'm curious to see more of her #cdrama work. #EYDC2025
#李沁 #一笑随歌
Fu Yixiao forcefully tells the Emperor "family comes before country!" as her love interest and his son Feng Suige looks on as she threatens and schools his father. This is from the cdrama Fated Hearts. Fu Yixiao holds a knife to Feng Suige's neck as she threatens him while riding on his horse sitting behind him as they parade through the city. Text says " You're overthinking, my dear." This is from the cdrama Fated Hearts. Fu Yixiao shoots an arrow at an enemy. She wears a black and red dress and looks as beautiful as she is deadly.

🚨 #FatedHearts balanced its leads giving each time to be strong & weak. In a rare yet appreciated move, it shared a man's body can be sensuous & beautiful, soft & lovely as well as it can be desirable for a man to share control of intimacy & to be at the mercy of a woman. #InTheKnees💋 #一笑随歌 #cdrama
Feng Suige presses Fu Yixiao's back against an ornamented red wall and kisses her passionately. He wears a black robe and she wears a white dress. This is from the cdrama Fated Hearts. Fu Yixiao twisted Feng Suige around to back him against the same ornamented red wall with an arm thrust against his chest and holds his neck in her hand with her thumb grazing his jawline. He looks blissfully at her mercy as if under a spell, and she looks at his slightly parted mouth about to kiss him. He wears a black robe and she wears a white dress. There are red curtains and light in the background. Lyrics say, "A stick of incense, a drop of tear, an inch of ash." This is from the cdrama Fated Hearts. Fu Yixiao hand slides under the back of Feng Suige's robe sensuously caressing his back as his hand rests on her neck to lift her head towards his for a kiss. His long, black hair sweeps to the side showing the thrust of his neck. She wears a white top. Lyrics say, "You and I silently recite." This is from the cdrama Fated Hearts.

🚨 👏 #FatedHearts used theatrical lighting beautifully. I really loved so many scenes that were nodding to constructed cineama & theatre drama lighting styles of the past.

A bar of white light slashes across the eyes of the Fu Yixiao in the cdrama Fated Hearts. She looks crazed with her hair loose. A stone-bricked corridor with a warm candle light bouncing off the stones and shafts of blue light filtering across diagonally from exterior windows. This is from the cdrama Fated Hearts. Feng Suige bends Fu Yixio backwards to kiss her as stark white light moves across a rocking chair in the foreground. They stand outside in a courtyard inside Feng's house and there are lanterns hanging from the roof and moonlight as it's at night. They wear a white robe and dress. This is from the cdrama Fated Hearts. Red and blue light cross each other to form a blurry "X" shape in a room interior. Warm candles are seen in the foreground. This is from the cdrama Fated Hearts.

🚨 #FatedHearts is 2 b commended for showing how society needlessly restricts women & how that in turn constricts men: their future & freedom is squashed by expectation. It put forth strength is found in choice, not through force. #ZhaoBin was exceptional as the emperor: #HeWasSpitting! #一笑随歌 #cdrama
