TFV K-Drama Organizational Post

[paxpinnae]

Hello!  This is the organizational post for trying to raise money for a help_japan  bid for a thefourthvine  review of a K-drama.  (Confused Circle people, I don't think any of you watch k-dramas, but you are certainly welcome to pitch in too.)  Please leave a comment with your maximum pledge and suggested dramas/individual episodes.  So far it looks like most people want to do Coffee Prince, but if you have another suggestion please do make your case.  If it turns out we can't come to an agreement, I'd suggest that we bid anyway and offer thefourthvine  her choice of the contestants, but if you feel different please say so in your comment

Pledges So Far

dormouse_in_tea - $25

ETA 15 March: I placed our bid this morning for $165.  Since then, we've had an additional $10 pledged.  Y'all are AWESOME.

Confirmed!

This is going to be epic. I have no objections to doing Coffee Prince, although the IRIS episode you listed is another strong contender, and I think we should keep it in mind in case she offers to do two episodes if the bidding goes high enough.

Yeah, I feel like IRIS is more in TFV's slashy wheelhouse, though Coffee Prince is a more traditionally WTF??? k-drama. Either way, it should be good!

[jamethiel]

man, I seriously need to get off my butt and actually watch IRIS. Urgh. Actually sitting down and watching stuff is HARD!

Great news! We won the bid! Given the general consensus for Coffee Prince and consideration for TFV's plot-following issues, we're asking her to watch the first two episodes of Coffee Prince. Please make your donation to one of the help_japan approved charities and send the confirmation page to thefourthvine at gmail dot com. Thank you for helping show many, many people how awesome and cracky kdramas can be!

Oh god. My e-mail has been in disaster-triage status for over a month now, and I completely missed this. Donation made just now, and I'm off to e-mail the receipt to TFV.

*made of FAIL*
