Hot Superior is aptly named. And the heroine kicking ass in a ballgown is reminding me of Kim Possible for some reason.

Wait, I have to ask... why exactly do they need a pop sensation to defect to North Korea anyway?? And I really, really want to know the story as to why she absolutely needs to get the guy's autograph.

(watch Zenkai Girl please?)

It... was a process. At first she was just on babysitting duty, then she kinda had to lie and promise to assassinate him, then it was decided she should marry him and turn him into a comrade.

...

Look, I never said it made sense, just that it was awesome. XD

(I have Zenkai Girl downloaded! I just literally haven't watched anything today but Myung Wol. The obsession came swiftly.)

Joking aside, Kim Jong Il was very big on kidnapping celebrities - there is a notorious story about how he kidnapped a famous South Korean director and his star wife and kept them captive for years and years until they managed to escape. They weren't the only ones. Plus, it's a point of patriotic pride to have cinema as good as SK's but they, obviously don't (I grew up in a Communist country, though not as extreme as NK, and it was the case there too - all about how our cinema was better than the decadent West's).

Lmao, I don't know, but I'm pretty sure they won't be bebopping into North Korea to live happily ever after. Aside from that, who can guess?

I'm going! I'm going!

HAHA. also i was going back through your comments and people are STILL constantly mentioning city hunter. I am just loling forever at your life.

(Also I saw ikemen desu ne cause the curiosity was killing me and the j version is just lame. i like the girl but ren aka japanese tae kyung doesnt have a fraction of the charisma and grandiosity of jang geun suk. bah! the other actors just lack charm. its a cheap imitation imo)

I'm about ready to scorch the earth of City Hunter. HOW MANY EPISODES LEFT?

(I heard the same thing about Ikemen. Too much copying, not enough charm. I don't think I'll even bother with it anymore, not when there are already so many quality dramas airing this season.)
