    edit: so I saw the hoodie daejang GIF has been uploaded on the Faith Blog. How do I change my dp to that gif image? when I save GIF images on my laptop, the images won't move for some stupid reason. is there a way to save GIFs that I'm unaware of?

    I LOVE HOW THE FAITH BLOG HAS BEEN SPRUCED UP. 

    Edit: so there's another blog just for this recap season? awesome!!!

    I still love going through  the old blog though most of the videos and gifs don't open anymore

    Hi @Layali The old blog is moving to the new domain. The gifs are lost because the image hosting website used 8 years ago, Minus, has closed down without any notice. So the broken images need to be replaced. Some may not be replaceable because another Faithling WutHmone owns them under her account.

     

    Are you using MAC as well? If it is MAC maybe ask @msdot for some assistance. There's a limit to the size of dp. Try if these would go through:

  2. Hello all,

    Happy weekend. It's a rainy morning at my end, so I am laying around on my bed reading all the awesome inputs from you guys.

     

    Assuming everyone has seen ep1-2, here are the translated script that were omitted from the drama for the two episodes.

     

    https://shineuifaith.wordpress.com/category/faith-translations/script-tidbits/

     

    Each week it will have 2 episodes (if any) to go with the weekly recap. Feel free to either comment over there your thoughts or here about these omitted scenes. 

     

    In addition, there is also an excerpt translation of when Daejang first saw Eun Soo and his inner thoughts. In season 2 recap, we tried to pinpoint when he fell in love with her and based on the novel, it seems like it is love at first sight.

    Thanks for sharing, I already saw the video on Youtube before you removed it in the forum, my mind already went to the gutter after reading the recaps and explanations about the line. :D 

    The subtitle was so different with the version that I watched, thankfully there were Sunbaes here who shared detail recaps! *sigh*

    You saw it! Great!

     

    @violetts Thank you. So all this time we're "using" it incorrectly, bwahahaha. Well, it's gonna stay that way because "imja" has become a term of endearment to us now. It's kind of hard to imagine a proper mannered Daejang would use "You" so directly to a woman.

     

    @Min2206 Choi Young has superb memory and intelligent. Even Jangbin... ES keeps saying "antibiotics"... "cut" - and he knows what she's talking about, LOL.

     

    @kdyes All dramas used to be an hour before until one year the Big 3 (MBC, KBS, SBS) decided to cut down the time and used it to show more CFs (=$$$). And then couple years ago they cut 1 episode to 2 x 30 mins, it was said more CFs can be shown in between. Cable TV dramas still remain at 1 hour and sometimes longer.

    It seemed to me that Faith would be a big hit in the end and actually one recapper said that she believed that Faith would stand the test of time and be a classic over the years. I don't think her prediction is true though since most media when talking about LMH dramas forget to mention Faith.  Seems more like a cult following.  It still has the record for the largest number of pages in Soompi, with our rewatch it will be even larger 4562 pages now and growing. 

     

    Yeah, I like watching him in pain because he looks so vulnerable at times when in pain so it tugs at you, and also that he can withstand the pain is somewhat really macho and manly as in CH

     

    I wish Faith would garner more interest with new fans and old fans as well if they have not yet seen it.

     

    What is the link to the blog?

    It is a cult popularity. Being a sageuk is a disadvantage, as many people shy away from it including myself. The recapper is correct to say it stood the test of time because look what happened 8 years later? I was very surprised that the new fans are giving good reviews for Faith and fell for Choi Young. Although a lot had to do with @Heretorant's selling skills. And I am shocked I am being sucked into 4th season of recap. 20 years later, will we be doing 100th recap? LOL LOL LOL.

     

    Lee Min Ho, do you see this? The contributions and devotion from your Minoz and Drama Fans? 

     

    We need to understand the media that report about LMH's dramas probably didn't watch his dramas. It is highly likely they look at statistics (gross and popularity) and decided Faith is not worth the mention. They are not drama/movie critics.

     

    I'm sure we all know very well now that statistics do not always reflect quality of the show. It's objective and a personal preference.

     

    The link to the blog is on the first page, first post. There are other good links there to explore. Enjoy.

    Sorry to cut your post!  The emotional pain is what I missed from Lee Gon.  There were only a couple of scenes where he was in pain and those were so short.  Yes yes, that vulnerability is a turn on lol.  

    LOL LOL. I remember getting excited that he was being poisoned. Fully anticipating MORE awesome pain performances the next week. AND... so disappointed it was so short. "Turn on", hahaha, yes agree :D :D @Lmangla must think we are weird. Hopefully we can turn her to the dark side :P 

     

    With this, I now have ideas for many more polls. Lmangla is going to be busy if we agree to do it.

     

    1. Woodalchi puppies popularity poll (We can do it on the week we have Ep 9-10)

    2. Daejang's hairstyle poll (After E22 or Finale)

    3. Daejang's fashion poll (After Finale)

    4. LMH's pain scene - Like or Dislike poll (This can be done at LMH thread)

    5. Favourite villain poll (By E17)

    @Min2206 Yeah. It was hilarious when RDH goes, "You dislike women?!"

    :loolz:

    The teasing in this clip was just... so awesome.

  7. @Aleumdaun Errr... I wouldn't brag too much about the action scenes to your kids. Faith's action scenes by "current time" may no longer be considered good, it was not even impressive 8 years ago by our standard when we saw it. Fans took it to their hands editing the scenes then it came out much better. You'll know what I mean when you see the real deal. However, I think the below clip shows the better fight scenes CY had.

    ACTION II

    LOL @Maja @CarolynH I'm pleasantly surprised just how many more of you liked watching him in pain or looking vulnerable. Back then it was just me and Maja willing to come out of the closet admitting we love him doing physical (and emotional) pain scene. It was just something about it—he looks vulnerable but so gorgeous when he's in pain. I fell for it since City Hunter's you-know-which-scenes (I shall not say coz Min2206 hasn't seen it).

     

    == THOUGHTS ==

     

    So, episode 1 - going by memory I watched it because I had liked LMH in City Hunter. I don't like sageuk back then but I was willing to try with this eye-candy in there. First scene with the artistic ink wash painting I thought the drama was special/unique to start with. I wasn't fawning over hoodie/wet Daejang like many, but grew to appreciate the beauty because of the fellow friends here :D

     

    The light saber scene I thought was a bit silly since they wanted to ambush the enemies so why do they have glowing swords themselves? :D However I deduced that in order for us viewers to be able "to see" the Woodalchi outsmart their enemies, we need to be able to see their movement in the dark! Conclusion: I made peace with this flaw, plus it's hilarious thanks to violetts' take in relation to Star Wars.

     

    The epilogue in the fortune teller scene is an epic foreshadowing of Eun Soo's future which we soon will learn more about (for those who hadn't seen it). The actor guy was a regular in the writer's drama, he was also in Healer written by the same writer :)

     

    Episode 2 - The scene where Eun Soo was held hostage. Daejang was really mad when he spotted blood on Eun Soo's lips... indicating she was hurt. It really trigger the protectiveness in him, and I think it also had something to do with his promise to her end of episode 1. The little tiny detail in his expression and "tightening of his fist" were the give away. Yeah, Imja is his. No touchy touchy.

     

    And lastly, the scene that determine I'm all in for Faith - when Daejang said:

    Capture.png

    ...excuse the poor screen capture :Dbut hey, Daejang has nice straight teeth for a period which doesn't have toothbrush! :P

     

    ... it was the whole aura he was exuding, that "Samurai/Bushido" kind of spirit, honour and the importance of his promise made in his name. Of course soon after he lets himself be stabbed by Eun Soo was a complete surprise, because, we are only at episode 2 and I'm already spoilt with a pain scene? Who is this writer, me like, so hell yeah, I'm staying!

    I don't understand why few ladies here mentioned that CY said something interesting to ES when he was being carried, related to she's touching him? Since the subtitle on my end only wrote "I can't lose it since you are too loud". Could Sunbaes here share more about this?

    CY did say he can't lose his consciousness since she was touching him here and there. He said "yogi" "chogi".

    Soon you will hear "yogi" a lot in Faith, "yogi" means "here". "chogi" is "there".

    You don't have to be a LMH's fan to watch Faith. Everyone is allowed to have a big heart and have more than one Oppa. It's OKAY. Oppa understands :D

    Sanitary pads actually crossed my mind last night when the poll started. I didn't mention it as it may be too much information :D 

    It's so true that being girls are so inconvenient! The inconvenience triple when we go to undeveloped, rural areas. No toilet papers too! Oh dear me... definitely as H0ney said, needs lots of underwear. :D 

     

    BUT, imagine how shy and cute Daejang would be if he had found sanitary pads in imja's belongings and get told by imja the function of it???

    @mademoisellesia Thank you very much for the BTS videos. LMH is such a happy boy. KSH and LMH seem to have an easy friendship right off the bat. The pool scene had me scared for a bit though. I am glad he seems OK after it. Still scary - with all that heavy armor.  

     

    You are welcome ^_^ There will be some more to come later. You guys can see just how playful the Imja couple is in real life. I love their rapport. If you go back a few pages, there are press conference pictures too and videos.

  13. @Lmangla I'm thinking maybe around or by ep7-8 we can do a Wooldachi poll. By then everyone should be quite acquainted with the important ones. We do give them lotsa nicknames so I'm interested to see what else you guys can come up with this time :D 

     

    The main Woodalchi puppies consist of:

    Dae Man (Daejang's pup) - Dragon Ball Hair as you called it. 

    Choong Suk - Bujang (second in command) aka. the party-pooper in ep21

    Dol Bae - The Cheeky Player

    Deok Man - The dumb dumb that was Yoon Kyung Sang (Faith was his debut drama!)

    Joo Suk

     

    ...will link it with pictures later.

     

    Other notable characters are:

    Do Chi (Gongmin's eunuch)

    Lady Choi (Choi Young's aunt)

    Mambo Siblings 

    Noodle Man

    Spear Boy

    Arrow Boy

     

    Villains:

    Ki Chul

    Hwa Su In aka Fire Lady

    Chun Eum Ja

    Yang Sa

    Deuk Heung - we called him Snake or Duck-Hindass coz we hate him so much :D

  14. @Lmangla For the next poll, should we have Woodalchi puppies popularity vote? :D

    It may be obvious who might win, but who knows this time round it could be different since one of the puppies made it out big now!

     

    Note: Woodalchi is the royal guards and loyal puppies to Choi Young, I mean, *cough* Gong Min. :phew:
