BOYS LOVING BOYS. AND GIRLS DRESSED AS BOYS.

I have a new love. That love is Sungkyunkwan Scandal. The story is awesome, the sets are beautiful, the acting is wonderful, and IT CONTAINS MY NEW FAVORITEST SLASH SHIP EVER.

I think that says it all right there, really. This is the first K-drama where I am enjoying the secondary characters even more than I enjoy the main characters/romance (and I really, really enjoy the leads, too, so, it's not like they are uninteresting. It's just that everybody on this show is so damn lovable). My favorite character though is Yong Ha, no contest. I mean, how can I not love a dude who flirts with everyone in his path?

But we all know that his heart belongs to Jae Shin:

Greatest moment in the series so far for me. I love how this ridiculously playful character suddenly gets completely serious when he sees his best friend purposefully walking into a trap. I mean, up to this point we've seen that Yong Ha cares for Jae Shin, he's always hanging around him and touching him and whatnot (and there was even that conversation with Sun Joon where he said that he's had sexual thoughts about Jae Shin, though if he was being serious I'm not quite sure), but this is the first time where we really see the depth of Yong Ha's love for Jae Shin. With everyone else it's just about having fun, but with Jae Shin, it's the real deal. He cares about him and wants to be by his side forever, and it kills his soul a little that Jae Shin doesn't quite feel the same way. It's interesting that Yong Ha is such a notorious playboy, but when it comes to his heart, it's clear that Jae Shin will always be #1 for him. And despite his claims of loving women, he gets disinterested with them so fast that it's a little contradictory. But he certainly loves the attention... Basically, I am in love with him forever and always, even though he is so clearly the trickster character in this story (luckily he seemed to break free of this trope once he became friends with the whole group, but, you know, he still likes to cause trouble purely to entertain himself).

And, hey, while I'm here, let's end this with another vid:

CLEARLY THEY ARE BOYFRIENDS.
