Recess: I Want That, I Really Really Want That

Most dramas tend to be middle-of-the-road fare – you watch and then you forget about it. But sometimes even those dramas yield things that are memorable in other ways, it stays with you for a good long while. Today’s recess time discussion is this: has there been anything in a certain drama that you covet?

It can range from something as insignificant as dying to own that Pig-Rabbit plush from You’re Beautiful or perhaps coveting the entire life of a certain character because it’s just so perfect to you. As for me, let me get the fun started with some of Koala’s all-time wants via K-dramas.

1. I covet Choi Ji Woo’s hairstyle from Air City. Plus she got to make out with Lee Jung Jae, so that hair is clearly a lucky charm. It was a glorious mane with lustre, length and fell perfectly down her back.

2. I long for the entire Winter wardrobe owned by Bora (Sung Yuri’s character’s name in Snow Queen). She looked stunning in every single outfit in that drama – fashionable, chic, trendy without looking like a fashion victim, and totally season appropriate.

3. I covet Kim Tae Hee’s princess shoe collection from My Princess. Do I even need to explain? Have you seen her wall of shoes?

4. I wish I could be Yoon Eun Hye for a day during the filming of Lie to Me. To be kissed like that by Kang Ji Hwan. *blushes*

5. I want Binnie’s house in Secret Garden for a vacation home. No one could possibly live there daily. But on weekends? Totally lustworthy.

6. I want to eat at the fictional Oonamjeong restaurant in Gourmet. Bonus points if Kim Rae Won cooks for me. Even more bonus points if he comes out and feeds me, just to show me the correct way to eat the food, of course.

  • Can I just lust after a character? Mine would definitely be Ren Guang Xi from Autumn's Concerto, post surgery. As for things I would like the lace ribbon from Summer's Desire. As an accessory for some reason I'm very drawn to it. Right now I have a piece of yellow cloth wrapped around my wrist to mimic it, but it's not the same.

  • I love Gong Yoo's roof top apartment in Coffee Prince, esp. the slide out bed, the terrace w/ view and the fact that it's right in the middle of town and not some leafy chaebol suburb. If not, I would also happily take the house in Personal Taste (preferably with Lee Min Ho attached).

    I also want Lee Dong Wook from whatever and in whatever form I can have him.

      • I remember I coveted the wardrobe of Sung Yuri in Snow Queen as well. So many nice boots and coats!
        As to the appartment in Coffee Prince, (talking very quietly, because this is a bit eccentric), I looked for it once in Google Maps Satellite using the names of the hotels you can see on the skyscapers in view. I think I found it, in the middle between the two hotels, but the picture is not very clear:

        But when you zoom out the neighbourhood doesn't look as appealing as in the drama.

  • I want to be Yoon Eun Hye filming Coffee Prince so that I can kiss both Lee Seon Kyun and Gong Yoo. And I want to actually be Go Eun Chan so I can marry Choi Han Gyul.

    I want every snazzy cellphone from every drama in the last 3 years.

    I want the entire Shinhwa enterprise from BOF... they took Cheabol to the next level. As far as I could tell, Shinhwa ruled the world.

    • haha yeah none of the kdramas to date have chaebols like the ones in bof! i want my self a f4 member! preferably so yi jung! <3

      • haha, omg, I misread your comment and I was like, "what? The Shinhwa boys were in an entire BOF ep? OMG I MUST WATCH IT!" LOL (I dropped bof at, like, ep 11 or sth)

        And koala, chingu, I need to think about this one.

    • Can I covet your kdrama wish? The whole time I watched coffee prince, I was thinking "I want a Choi Han Gyul!" If he existed in the real world, you have to let me have him and you can have Gong Yoo.

      ... wait, can they exist at the same time in the same dimension?

      • Thing is... I don't know who I love more, Choi Han Gyul or Gong Yoo. The logical choice is to go with Gong Yoo because he's real. But Han Gyul had me at "I don't care if you're a man or an alien..." Whenever I make up my mind, you can have the otehr one.

  • I want a cellphone accessory. But my phone has no where to attach one. I like the orb from My Girlfriend is a Gumiho. I'm enjoying these homework assignments.

  • Ah. To be Kim Tae Hee in "My Princess" for a month. Just the Princess part and Song Seunghun part. ;). I'd live in a house like Hyun Bin's in "Secret Garden", a perfect man like the doctor in "The Greatest Love". A doteful secondary love like So ji Sub in "What happened in Bali".... Hmmm that's 3 men in total. That's okay right? X). Heheheheee. Oh and I just want Jang Hyuk in his Chuno attire to just hover all around me.

  • Man, I loved Kim Tae Hee's shoes AND headbands in My Princess. Seeing her wear all of her cute headbands eventually influenced me to go out and buy some of my own (that I STILL haven't quite worn yet) :(

    I also liked all of the jackets/outerwear Lee Min Jung's character wore in Smile, You.

    Most of the bags that Park Shin Hye wore in Heartstrings were of the crossbody type and I searched for days online to find a bag that I could use for school that "grabbed" me like some of hers did.

    Kdramas encourage me to spend more money than I want to. Lol.

  • hmmm lol this is gonna be a long one for me!
    1. Chu Ga Eul- i loved her coats and that pretty pink dress that yi jung bought for her in BOF. and i want to steal yi jung from her! haha and i want one of the f4 cars.
    2. I really want to live in the house that Lee Yoon Sung lives in City Hunter. And I want him too lol!
    3. I wish I could go and have coffee at the cafe in Coffee Prince.

  • I would like to be Goo Hye Sun in BoF. If I were Guem Jan Di, I would have stuck with my Ji Ho sunbae. Not only was he just way too handsome, but I loved his wardrobe in the show. We would live in Hyun Bin's snazzy house were Kang Ji Hwan would give me Cola kisses every morning. Eventually, the day would come where I would have to choose between Kang Ji Hwan and my Ji Ho sunbae, but I'm not going to worry about that just yet... lol.

  • I lust after Park Shiyeon's wardrobe in Coffee House. It's fashionable, but also casual and realistic. Most of the time, actresses in dramas look so obviously styled for hours, but PSY's outfits were something that real people can pick and put on in the morning.

    Lee Minjung's skin. WANTSSSS!!

    I love the cottage in My Princess! Also, the house in Scent of a Woman/Doctor Champ. They look sooooo comfortable.
