The epic 2D1N song mentioned on the previous blog post:
And i found this clip...the very first 2D1N episode I saw on KBS World on Astro at home,
which was the trigger that made me start watching 2D1N...
(do watch, there's eng sub~)
Basically what this episode was about...
this poor guy named Na PD, is not a celebrity, he's just a director
but he's the "bad guy" in the show, keep torturing and setting strict rules on the casting members
So on this episode, the members were trying to make fun of him and making bet with him:
Na PD would lose if he laugh at their jokes, and the members would be granted free breakfast the next day.
Hence, Lee Seung-gi tried and imitated his pet phrases:
1) "DDENG!!!" - shout out energetically and excitedly when member answered a quiz wrongly, eg @2:22
2) "Mission, FAIL!!!" eg @2:44
3) "Cannot." - said out coolly and robotically to reject any request from the member, eg @3:44
So, why did I got attracted by this show?
I did not know.
But now with season 1 bidding farewell months ago,
I finally know the reason why I got attracted by this show.
It's not really because the MCs are funny (well, they ARE funny)
and it's not really because the show itself is funny (well, it IS funny though)
it's because...
they have a funny PD
and you don't usually see PD as an "active" member on other variety shows, do you?
2D1N is special in the sense that, the PD himself is part of the show
a very important character ON the screen...
When Kang Hodong left the show,
they said Na PD actually had more on-screen showtime,
in order to fill in the gap KHD left...
I do think that it's true...
They lost a casting member out of sudden,
so the PD came in to replace, smoothly...
Now that the cast was changed in season 2
the rating dropped...Running Man is catching up...
I think the main problem is not only on the MCs...
Losing Na PD on the show, is a great loss...
It's loss of a brilliant director, loss of a brain, loss of an "entertainer"!!
So
instead of saying "i miss season 1"
maybe i shd say "i miss Na PD"~
If Na PD returns to the show, maybe, the rating could be revived~
hmmm....
As expected
SMS came in around 7:30am
I heard it
but refused to wake up and look at it
So I tried to sleep on
for another 2 hours
until I'd accumulated enough courage
to finally pick up my phone
and press the button
No "U"
...
...
...

Even got an "A" there

So bored... shall start blogging and blogging and blogging...
till i find something more meaningful to do...
hence will start with some stories I had had in the past 4 years in NUS...
* * *
Unforgettable Pasts (I)
There's someone that I've been avoiding for the past three/four years...
Someone whom I once felt respectful and thankful towards
but now afraid of...
If you know what I did during my very first semester in NUS
those weird stuffs
then you might know what and whom I'm referring to
(previous posts: 12)
Till today, I still do not know what this group is about
and it's uncomfortable to know that they have changed from YDG to YDS
and remains an official students' society in NUS (go check NUS CCA website!!)
I wonder...if any other students ever doubt it like how sang and i did...
and if anyone ever google and expose the stories (but i doubt it since they are still "official" in NUS)
Because of them, I nearly became a christian
But soon after, because of them too, I am not a christian
Nothing against christianity nor christians, I still respect it/them
it's just a not-so-happy experience I had with YDG...
Okay back to the topic
ya
there's a person whom I've been avoiding
the lady who brought me into the group
I don't know why
but I keep seeing her around NUS
in science in arts and even in pgp
when i almost forgot about this group of people
she would just popped out in the canteen, sitting near me
And I don't know why
I have this superb antenna sensing her presence nearby
i can even recognise her back view from far
and almost like an inborn ability, i'd automatically turn and walk away
And yes,
she appeared again today in old canteen
and yes, i swayed away immediately and went to foodgle instead
Almost every time
i could feel that she saw me too
we even had eye contact sometimes
but no greetings, no conversation attempted
like two complete strangers
Why is this happening?
It's either I did something wrong, or she/they were wrong in the first place...
But is it really my fault?
...because I doubt them too much?
...because I believe google and wikipedia too much?
...because I repaid their kindness with unexplained quitting from the group?
Don't know...
Don't think I'd ever know the answer...
But
I'll still need to keep my antenna alert for the next 2 years
for I am still stuck in this invisible cage for another 2 years
HA

Filling my days with ssk news and shows
unintentionally
and subconsciously...
Now super tempted at this:
http://blog.naver.com/jelly_goods/130138874139
shd have blogged abt my graduation
but...
think i shd blog abt it after 28th...
shd have blogged abt taiwan trip
but...
i still couldn't upload the photos
and
too much emotional stuffs
i need to rethink
whether i shd really blog abt it
maybe
i shd just post the photos
and leave the writing minimal
and
i shd have blogged abt my future plans
but
i still lack the courage to think abt it
too many stuffs to worry now
too many stuffs to settle now
maybe...
when June comes
everything will be settled
and everything will be fine again
and
i'll be able to blog again
with a clearer mind
