Older Man: The cancer has moved onto the lungs, do you have any intentions of getting back together with Hwa Yeong?

Kang Hyun’s Friend 1: His ex-wife is a food stylist, won’t you be compared to her?

Kang Hyun’s Friend 2: You’re in charge of a 4 million won (approx 400,000 USD) project, does everyone at work know about this?

Doctor: (to Hyun Soo) You used more effort than her, right?

Kang Hyun: I didn’t know that you were hurting more than me, I’m sorry

Hyun Soo: Towards Miss Kang Hyun, what are my feelings?

Kang Hyun: The reason I’m telling Mr Attorney the truth is because it seems that I have started to like you.

… finally some forward romantic action! can’t wait!

Beethoven Virus: Episode 2 [Translations] September 14, 2008

So many happenings this episode: dogs taking sleeping pills (wow the angst!), the start of the ‘opera killer’ moves, and my increasing dislike for the supposely distinguished maestro Kim Gun Woo.

Breakdown of the episode (all screencaps credit to Luv@Soompi):

The Dog Angst

... and he's still EVIL

... and he's still EVIL

In a dramatic (yet somehow comical) twisty design of the episode, Old Kim Gun Woo (as he now shall be referred as) panics after discovering his dog (named “Beethoven” or “Thoven”) ingested sleeping pills and is on the verge of death – he remembers days with his past girlfriend in Japan and how Beethoven became his sole companion through the years. …this is the only part of the show so far where I’ve felt he was actually a bit more human than usual…

But five seconds later after agreeing to conduct for the amateur orchestra (Ru Mi and Young Kim Gun Woo rescued Beethoven), he denies ever making the agreement. (What a nice guy…NOT) But he finally agrees after somehow roping Young KGW into doing all the housework for him – a very tense atmosphere indeed, and Ru Mi looks a bit pathetic being caught in the middle!

I love this drama to bits so I’ve translated some of the longer conversation scenes between Kang Hyun and Hyun Soo (with screencaps of course)

... got baggage?

... got baggage?

Don’t know why they look so serious there but the most cheerful rooftop scene involves Hyun Soo lending Kang Hyun his slippers because her boots got a bit soggy in the pond:

*After Receiving Slippers*

Kang Hyun: Wah! So Comfortable! Thanks so much!

Hyun Soo: Those shoes are slippery, be careful -…

*Ka Hyun Slips*

*… and the smile that can easily break a few hearts*

*flashes winning smile*

The most appropriate description: *flashes winning smile*

HS: Oh, what, Jo** (random name)

In the office? Oh understood, I’ll be right down.

Kang Hyun (talking to herself): So annoying, the atmosphere last night was pretty good.

So what? It’s not like I’ll like a divorced man.

Korean Drama: Love Match Marriage … [Hotness is not a crime] September 12, 2008

One of the highlights of the drama (out of personal bias) is Kim Ji Hoon *melts in hotness*:

One of the cutest dramas that I’m now a bit obsessive about! Here is the summary from Soompi (with a little  help from me in regards to grammar):

What would happen if a couple manager and a divorce lawyer fall in love? A caouple manager’s task is connecting peoples’ love, and a divorce lawyer’s job is detaching people’s relationships. Nevertheless, the two jobs share the same conclusion; it’s love. Ganghyeon is a ‘couple manager’. She manages peoples’ arranged marriages, but dreams about her love marriage. She is fired from work for a marriage fraud, and starts to work as a remarriage couple manager. Unmarried woman, who failed in love, enters into the world of remarriage. Hyeonsu is a ‘divorce lawyer’. He married through the arranged marriage, and got divorced. He’s got the wounded heart about the divorce, and doesn’t know what true love is. Ironically, he needs to help those who have the same pain and trouble that he has.

I keep checking Dramabeans‘ summaries for any updates on this series (since my Korean is still half-polished) but I shall be posting later on this blog on my fav scenes from this series as this is simply the best romantic series in a while – very non-cheesy and very light-hearted, perfect after a busy day at work or of studying. :)

Thoughts: We Got Married Becoming Blah… September 11, 2008

It’s one of my utmost favourite shows, but somehow I think the Cheoseuk special with the new THREE couples will greatly degrade the quailty of the show…

:(

But still good luck to the four existing couples we’ve grown to love and hope that they date eachother in real life soon (or maybe already) kekeke :P

Thermodynamics Humour July 3, 2007

To celebrate the wonderful confusion of thermodynamics, here are some light relief:

“Thermodynamics is a funny subject. The first time you go through it, you don’t understand it at all. The second time you go through it, you think you understand it, except for one or two small points. The third time you go through it, you know you don’t understand it, but by that time you are so used to it, it doesn’t bother you any more.” – Arnold Sommerfeld

Hell and Thermodynamics

A thermodynamics professor had written a take home exam for his graduate students. It had one question:
“IS HELL EXOTHERMIC (gives off heat) OR ENDOTHERMIC (absorbs heat)? SUPPORT YOUR ANSWER WITH A PROOF.”

Most of the students wrote proofs of their beliefs using Boyle’s Law (gas cools off when it expands & heats up when it is compressed) or some variant.

One student, however, wrote the following:

First, we need to know how the mass of Hell is changing in times, we need to know the rate that souls are moving into Hell & the rate they are leaving. I think we can safely assume that once a soul gets to Hell, it will not leave. Therefore no souls are leaving. As for how many souls are entering Hell, lets look at the different religions that exist in the world today. Some of these religions state that if you are not a member of their religion, you will go to Hell. Since there are more than one of these religions and since people do not belong to more than one religion, we can project that all people and all souls go to Hell. With birth and death rates as they are, we can expect the number of souls in Hell to increase exponentially. Now we look at the rate of change of volume in Hell because Boyle’s Law states that in order for the temperature and pressure in Hell to stay the same, the volume of Hell has to expand as souls are added.

This gives two possibilities:

  1. If Hell is expanding at a slower rate than the rate at which souls enter Hell, then the temperature and pressure in Hell will increase until all Hell breaks loose.
  2. Of course, if Hell is expanding at a rate faster than the increase of souls in Hell, then the temperature and pressure will drop until Hell freezes over.

So which is it?
If we accept the postulate given to me by Ms Theresa Banyan during my Freshman year, “That will be a cold night in Hell before I sleep with you” , and taking into account the fact that I still have not succeeded in having sexual relations with her, then #2 cannot be true. So Hell is EXOTHERMIC

The student got the only “A”.
