    [Drama 2016] Moon Lovers ❤ Scarlet Heart Ryeo, 달의 연인-보보경심 려 \^0^/ Soompi Kdrama 2016 Winner

    Thanks to all for contributing to the metrics. I know we all want Moon Lovers to do well. Emoticon 0123 Party As several of us have noted, we can't assume the SNS figures from IG are the best indicator of any fan base in Korea because those figures (as do any others we might look at) have a lot of international fans adding to the numbers. Nor can we tell from that how many are cross over fans. Fans of A can also be fans of B and so forth. Nor do we have any idea which if any might be a Neilson or TnMS ratings family specific only to Korea.

    Two factors that may have contributed to the ginormous ratings for "that other drama shown earlier this year" missing from Moon Lovers was the others ability to stir national pride and the "Come on girl, Wake Up, What a man" factor.  Emoticon 0137 Clapping Moon Lovers might be a sageuk which aren't generally as popular as modern dramas,  however in its favor is the popularity of the original story, the popularity of the cast, the lavish filming that makes this feel like a movie and enough hype to have given the project the excitement and attraction of an event not to be missed.

    Moon Lovers:SHR will be #1 in its time slot.  Party

    When I watched the 6 minutes trailer, I noticed that Lee Jun Ki's face and frame shrink towards the end (the battle for the throne section especially in those scenes where he was dressed in white and stated that he came to reclaim his seat) comparatively during the earlier section when he portrayed the elusive "dog-wolf" prince. And his Wang So tends to wear his hair in an updo towards the later section instead of letting his mane of glory to just flow when he was always dressed in black (Him with his free flowing tresses looking all swoony). To be honest (I know I sound like a broken record), I find that he is just of the right weight and size during that period when he portrayed the dog-wolf Wang So. Neither too chubby nor too thin. The face is still angular and he blended in well with his younger co-stars who played his on-screen brothers. So, I am hoping that Jun Ki will somehow put on a little bit of that healthy weight and maintain that right size instead of looking too sharp (his jaws could be sharper than swords) and thin as he is right now. 

    I noticed too that he was heavier when they filmed the mountain scene. I think everyone has their ideal look for Joon and everyone is entitled.I wonder if there aren't two things that influence what we like?. The first being familiarity? If you look at him in the line up with the other guys he doesn't look skinny. He looks the same as the rest. And in the poster with them all, he and Baekhyun are seated and look the same size. They both do have smaller bone structure. I wonder if being a long standing fan makes us prefer his heavier look. The next is I wonder if the age of the fan (being somewhat similar to how long they've been a fan) has anything to do with the way they prefer he look?  I know when I found him a year ago (no he wasn't missing):lol: and was hunting down everything he'd done to watch it. OMG the way he looked in that other wolf thing... he had bulked up for that I think....but OMG!.  Wow! . So believe me, I can deal with either look. Although as I've said I do think he looks younger with sharper features because his face doesn't have that pudgy look he had last year. Once we see him in 20 episodes of Moon Lovers we'll know better which look is more drool worthy. Drool    Emoticon 0115 Inlove  or maybe it will always just be a preference?

    Joon Gi's oufit looks much better here than the one he wore at his NSG promo. Thank goodness he is wearing the longer length pants, someone mentioned that earlier and I agree. I dislike the fashion trend of shorter pants length and no socks. Call me old fashion but it reminds me of boys who have outgrown their clothes and too lazy to put socks on :) Did I give away my age lol

    I kinda know what you mean though.. my mom always told me not to be too trendy... that I'd regret it later especially looking at pictures in 5 years... :lol:

    Last night I was up until like 2am in the morning watching the V cast then the press conference and coverage. By the time it all ended  I was too tired to post anything sensible.  I couldn't keep my eyes open. But morning has come at last and it is a much different day. :D

    Now the only tension that remains is the anticipation for the 29th and of course Running Man and everything else we can enjoy while we wait. I imagine there are going to be a lot of rave reviews coming out and we can all drool over them. I am happy for everyone but especially JOON!!   DAEBAK to everyone!!    ^_^

    A GINORMOUS THANK YOU to everyone who has added the latest pics and posts.  I know everyone has to be on Cloud 9 with Joon, IU, Ha Nuel, Jong Hyun, Joo Hyuk,Baekyun, Ji Soo, Sun Wo and the rest.   :):wub:  The excitement is only going to grow.  Hopefully we will not self-destruct in the mean time. None of us should miss any of this.:w00t:

    LOL. @LyraYoo I reacted the same way. I can't think of anything else to say right now but, WOW. If it's possible, I think I'm even more excited than before :w00t::D:lol::blush:

     

    In about a half hour. Oh. are you on the East Coast, Chingu?

    Yes, east coast.... my heart is still trying to return to normal.  I knew this was going to be huge but this trailer OMG OMG OMG

    I am just confused because the V says 12:20 I assume it meant the time in Seoul?  Which is past that... so it confused me.

    Of course having a major overload of hormones while having a heart attack might screw with my head. :dizzy:

    OMO!! OMG!  WOW.  The video is a more fleshed out version than the one shown by Youku in July. The drama looks so very, very good. :w00t::D:lol:  This is the drama I was waiting for. :blush:

    @irilight @minmar @lisethvr @Gabi Bros @patoi @uuugogirl  What did you all think of this one? I know we've seen a lot of the scenes before, but the cuts are longer. And there are more scenes featuring Wangso and each of the princes.

     

     

    LOOKS AWESOME!!
