Talking 'bout Dream High - and a lil' bit ranting :(

Really don't understand why in some sites people are putting down BYJ when they talk about Dream High. Are they certified drama critics with  tons of experience behind them? Are they qualified professionals who are objectively evaluating an actor's performance....that they have the right to say BYJ's time is over....put him on a shelf and let the young ones take over...because they  are the ones people want to see in dramas ???!!!.....Says who ??? !!!  My blood has been boiling ever since I read this. 

You could argue I'm saying that because I'm a Baefamily and BYJ-biased...well, that's right , I  AM...so, even though BYJ's an Icon in his field and his talent has been recognized since way back when, I'm making it my responsibility to set it straight again : Wake up will you !! ...BYJ doesn't have tons and tons of fans because he's just sittin' there lookin' pretty !!!

Well, if they harp on BYJ.....KHJ's name certainly gets mentioned also..in the same negative tone. Of course, the same people who puts down BYJ also tramples on KHJ. This green pea's really turning red red red. Oh, I hate it when people earn money, get recognition or draw attention to themselves by putting down other people. GRRRRGH. Hmmm...I could talk miles and miles on this.... But rantings will stop  now so you could enjoy these Dream High pictures....

Two very well known and very well loved figures....

Two K- Entertainment Icons....

Hmmm...it seems these three [below pix] 
were classmates in school, according to the script

Hehehe...Baefamily right away spot the jacket Yong Joon ssi is wearing !

It's familiar to us, coz we seem to remember everything about YJ ssi

if we've seen him in a picture or video. 
He's worn this jacket several times in everyday life^^.

I wonder if they'll start making this "Kirin" neclace to be sold ?

Wouldn't mind wearing one ^^ Me like the motto :)

Click HERE if you want to know more about the storyline, characters and the casts of Dream High. At the Dream High presscon Yong Joon ssi was very attentive to the younger performers, Click HERE, HERE and HERE [the pics're  rather small]   you will see him with Tara's Eun Jung, who wore a cast coz of knee injury. And you could also click HERE and HERE ...I think BYJ is urging 2PM's Woo Young go nearer to the center of the stage.

Err...I just wanted to say something about IU's character in this drama...she's great and her voice is beautiful.... I'm glad she's in Dream High, I'm also glad  about the other cast members ...they are talented performers. But I'm just a bit bothered that IU has to wear this "fat" costume [not the one above that she /her character wore for audition scene, but outside that scene]. She plays this over weight girl who seems to shed her weight in the course of the drama...transforming into a slim and beautiful girl. IMO, the make up or mask or what ever that is painstakingly put on her [taking several hours to put on and to take off] is NOT natural looking...feels like I'm watching a cartoon character come to life...if y'know what I mean. Besides, most people/audience are aware of her originally slim figure and pretty face...so...will her character here give the right impression ??....Oh well....we'll see later....

Here's the Dream High OST :

   Dream High OST - Taecyeon, Suzy & JOO by myoce

Dream High [Music&Lyrics by J.Y. Park "The Asiansoul"]

By Taecyeon, Jangwooyoung (2PM), Suzy (Miss A), Kimsoohyoen & JOO

I dream high 난 꿈을 꾸죠 힘들 때면 난 눈을 감고 꿈이 이뤄지는 그 순간을 계속 떠올리며 일어나죠

I dream high, I have a dream When it gets hard I close my eyes.

And while replaying the moment my dreams come true, I get up and keep on going

두려움의 끝에서 난 오늘도 흔들리죠 떨어질까 봐 날아오르지 못하는 어린 새처럼

I shake in the face of fear today as well. 

Like a young bird who's afraid to fly in fear of falling down

자꾸 내가 할 수 있나 내 꿈이 이뤄질까 내딛는 걸음 한 걸음 걸음이 다시 두려워 질 때마다

I keep on asking whether I can do this, whether my dreams can come true.

Whenever I make a step, step by step, the fear comes back.

I dream high 난 꿈을 꾸죠 힘들 때면 난 눈을 감고 꿈이 이뤄지는 그 순간을 계속 떠올리며 일어나죠

I dream high, I have a dream When it gets hard I close my eyes.

And while replaying the moment my dreams come true, I get up and keep on going

I can fly high 나는 믿어요 언젠가는 저 하늘위로 날개를 펴고 누구보다도 자유롭게 높이 날아 오를거에요

I can fly high, I believe That one day that I will spread my wings 

And fly up into that sky higher than anyone before

넘어진 날 일으켜 줄 용기가 필요하죠 먼지를 털고 다시 일어나 또 한 번 뛰어갈 용기가

I need courage to help me get up 

The courage which would make me jump up again, 

after brushing the dust off

다시 한 번 나를 믿고 나의 운명을 믿고 모든 걸 걸고 내 키보다 높은 벽을 뛰어 넘을거에요

Believing in myself and in my destiny once again. 

Risking everything I will jump over the wall higher than myself

Dream high a chance to fly high 아픔들은 이젠 모두 다 bye bye 

하늘에 있는 저 별들처럼 높이 날아봐 니 꿈들을 펼쳐 보는 거야

Dream High, a chance to fly high, from now to all the pain bye bye.

Try and fly as high as those stars in the sky. Watch your dreams unfold,

time for u to shine 이제부터 시작이야 gotta make em mine 니 손으로 이뤄가 미랠 두려워 하지마

time for u to shine It's the start, gotta make 'em mine. 

Don't be afraid of building your own future

이젠 힘껏 자신있게 걸어가 Destiny 숙명이지 멈출 수 없는 운명이 지금 우리 눈앞에 펼쳐지지

Walk on confidently with all your might. Destiny is your fate. 

Unstoppable destiny is now spreading in front of us

이건 너를 위한 whole new fantasy 그러니 이제부터 여기 내 손을 잡아

This is a whole new fantasy for you. So just take my hand

우리의 목표는 지금부터 하나 꿈과 미래 포기하지 않아 젊음 열정 여기 모두다 Dream High

Our goal now is the same. Don't give up on your dreams and future. 

Everyone here with youthful passion Dream High

Let's have a great time watching the drama today !!
