110822 Editorial Impressions of “Protect The Boss” and “Scent  Of  A Woman”

Earlier I posted my impressions of the first “Protect The Boss” and “Scent Of A Woman’ episodes. At the time, I kept them separate, but as time has gone on, I am beginning to see these two dramas as related one to another. We catch glimpses and inferences; images and cameos that link these two productions together as a part of the work of JYJ. The old saying,”You can’t keep a good man down” applies here because the sheer, raw talent of Jaejoong, Yoochun, and Junsu are what is keeping them in the public eye despite the setbacks from their contract disputes. Even the negative things keep their names in the headlines, and that is a blessing. It means that they are constantly before us and producing excellent work that has to be acknowledged even by those who oppose them.

“Protect The Boss” continues to entertain with that underlying theme of corporate rivalry between the Cha male cousins. This rivalry presents itself as continually desiring and having to share goals and people. Somehow, I believe that they are going to have to realize that they will accomplish more together as allies than rivals. How their love lives will turn out is still hard to guess, but both of them deserve happiness. One element that disturbs me is the amount of violence displayed between parent and son, and subsequently between other characters in the drama. It is treated in a comical manner, but relays a subtle message. Also, the amount of maneuvering, backbiting, and intrique are social problems showcased in “Protect The Boss’, and also in ‘Scent of A Woman’.

“Scent Of A Woman” is one of the best Korean melodramas I have viewed. It has such realism, including the circumstances that bring Lee Yoon Jae to a place of desperation, and the fight of Kang Ji Wook against the old system of arranged marriages. There are so many layers to this drama there could have been three or four dramas produced with the available material.

We are finally seeing by Episode 9 the truth about Lee Yoon Jae’s cancer coming to light. Kang Ji Wook literally stands at the door of discovery of what has been motivating Lee Yoon Jae all this time. Will he be strong enough to withstand this new problem in their relationship on top of every other obstacle that has come their way?  Does Kang Ji Wook deserve to lose every family tie in pursuit of his relationship with Lee Yoon Jae. We will just have to wait and see how this all turns out. We may not get what we want, which would be freedom from cancer and therefore life for Lee Yoon Jae, and deliverance from a corporate world rife with inner intrigues and obligations for Kang Ji Wook, but we can hope for the best conclusion. Since we are all imaginative, we can make our own endings if this turns out negatively. The angst in this melodrama is palpable and touches the heart. We can all learn from watching this drama unfold.

In Honor of Summer, a Little Comedy….

Hey guys. 🙂 I know you’re probably thinking this is another DBSK cuteness post, but in all actuality, I’m just about to watch some tv. Do you want to join me? No? Too bad. I’m turning it on anyway. (sits on sofa, grabs remote control, enlivens television set with electric shock)

Oh look! My favorite show is on! (bounces gleefully as a handsome host comes into view, seated in a plush armchair, hands folded, looking completely bored out of his mind)

*Do you crave thrilling adventure? (random actor is chased by overgrown lizard through the desert) Heart-wrenching angst? (toothbrush drops into toilet) Sappy romance? (boy kisses girl, girl slaps boy, boy cries) A prat fall scene complete with roller skates and bird poop?  (….Do I really have to describe that one?) Then you’re watching the right show. Welcome to Kpopiece Theatre.

*lalalacellolalalaviolinslalala*

Today on our program we have a special story,  just for you.

Picture this: the birds are chirping, the sun is shining, the grass is *greening* 0_0 and two young men are very, very bored. Doesn’t sound all that unusual, right? I mean we all get bored somedays. However, these are no ordinary young men. No, these are two very special, very loved, and extremely, well, mischievious boys.

Let’s get to the story, shall we?

 

 

 

 

 

 

4000 Goobnae chickens to eat, 4000 Goobnae chickens, take one down, pass it around, 3999 Goobnae chickens to eat………

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Junsu hyung. If you put a pack of ramen in a bowl with cold water, will the moisture substitute for heat and cook the noodles? 

 

 

 

 

 

Did you take the ramen out of the package?

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

I don’t remember……let me check….

 

 

Hyung! Come look, quick!

 

What? Is it a new video game? (salivates…)

 

 

 

 

 

Ummm….those are not video games.

 

Definitely not. But what are they?

 

Ummm…..

 

 

 

 They must be candles, Changmin.

Candles? Really?

 

 

 

(takes another look) Yup. Candles.

Wanna light one? It smells funny in here all of a sudden…like somethings burning….*sniff*….

 

 

 

 

 

 MY RAMEN! (runs to the kitchen) NO!!!!

 

 

 

Eukyangkyang. Now we’ll definitely have to use one of these. Jae hyung will not be happy if the house smells like smoke.

(from afar) My ramen….*sobs*

Don’t be sad, Minnie. We’ll make more later. Hyung will be back soon, so we’d better light a candle. Got a match?

In the cabinet, hyung. *gives ramen burial at sink sea*

 

 

 

Okay! I’m going to light it now!

Kay. Whatever.

 

 

                              !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!KABOOM!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

….silence….

 

 

 

Hehehe? Guess those weren’t candles, huh.

 

 

 

 

Genius. We’re so dead. There’s smoke everywhere.

 

 

Still, that was the most excitement I’ve had all day… I think I’ll set off another one….Waddaya say, Minnie? We’re going to get punished anyway, might as well have some fun.

 

 

 

 

(thinks about it)

Okay.

 

 

 

 

       Five minutes later, on the rooftop….

 

 

Woohoo!! Here we go!!!

Yeah!!!!

 

 

 

               

WOW!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

 

 

AWESOME!!!!!

 

 

 

Woah…..                 Dude….         Yeeehaw!!!!                Yeah!!!!

 

Meanwhile, walking home from the gym….

Ladedumdum. Can’t wait to get into a nice, warm, sweet-smelling bubble bat- (hears weird noise from afar, instinctively looks at DBSK apartment in the distance) – Huh?

 

 

AHH!!! MY BABIES!!! (rushes home) Junsu?! Changmin?!

 

 

Hello, hyung.

Peace. Is something wrong?

 

 

 

 

 

(completely weirded out)

I saw fireworks over our building.

 

 

 

 

Really? That’s odd. Must be our crazy neighbors next door. *snort*

Yeah. You know how weird they can be. Hyung. I’m hungry. Feed me.

 

 

 

 

 

 

Now wait just a second, dongsaengs. If the neighbors set off the fireworks, then why does our apartment smell like smoke?

 

 

 

 

 

Because our silly maknae here burnt his ramen. Right, Changmin.

Yeah. Sorry, hyung.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Oh no. My expensive new limited edition stainless steel marble handled sienna toned non stick pot!  *hurries away*

 

 

 

 

 

 

(screen goes blank, epically bored host returns) And that ends our show for today, ladies and gentlemen. I hope you enjoyed this episode of Kpopiece Theatre. Tune in next time for mystery and intrigue in *Did Eunhyuk really steal Heechul’s blowdryer?* Thank you, and good night.

(turns off television, stretches) Wow. Those sneaky little kiddies…hehehe. Well night ya’ll. See ya next time! tehehehe….

K-pop idol group JYJ has been appointed PR ambassador for an international forum on AIDS in the Asia Pacific region to be held in Busan next week, the organizer said Tuesday.

The 10th International Congress on AIDS in Asia and the Pacific, or ICAAP10, will take place from Aug. 26 to Aug. 30 in Bexco in Busan, gathering more than 4,000 AIDS experts from 70 countries in Asia Pacific.

The three member group, consisting of former TVXQ members Junsu, Yuchun and Jejung, received the letter of appointment at the Imperial Palace Hotel in southern Seoul.

“As the PR ambassador, I have learned that AIDS patients can lead a healthy life with proper medical care. We will try our best to raise awareness in Asia,” said Park Yu-chun.

“The appointment of JYJ to PR ambassador for the conference will help share common regional goals in Asia Pacific to prevent and fight against AIDS,” said Cho Myung-hwan, chairman of the local organizing committee of ICAAP10.

Cho added that the appointment of the youth pop culture icon as the PR ambassador for the AIDS conference symbolizes that Korea serves the international community not only with economic growth but with cultural power and social responsibility.

Coming into the 30th year since the discovery of AIDS, the upcoming forum will be attended by Fiji President Ratu Epeli Nailatikau, UNAIDS executive director Michel Sidibe, WHO Western Pacific regional director Shin Young-soo and officials from World Bank, ADB and the U.S. President’s Emergency Plan for AIDS Relief (PEPFAR).
