I love Lee Jin Wook - he's so cute! (He was so great in The Three Musketeers and I'm so planning to watch Goodbye Mr. Black.) This movie looks really good. And the girl's from I'm Sorry I Love You! - liked her lots in that.

Hi daesherri--Thanks so much for posting this; you beat me to it. Very glad to see DF showing up here in Chicago. I hope the event does well and gets us more events in the future.


I'm a DF paid member so if anybody here wants those discount tickets, send me a private message. I can't make it that night but I can buy the tickets and pass them along.

Just wanted to pass along that I went to this event-- I was hesitant to go, but decided "what the hell, I'll go" and I thought the movie was really good-- the plot was strong, kept you thinking, was a bit hard for me to follow with the time changes, but not to the point to be annoying. I heard someone say that there were 130 "dramafever" members there- someone
said they came from Milwaukee!
Good time: One of the people at the DF table, noticed that I wore my BigBang T-shirt and said she liked them too.
Bad time: Didn't win any of the raffle items, wasn't really expecting too, but it would have been nice if they raffled more items or at the least gave out DF t-shirts-- we did get a DF sticker.
I hope they were happy with the response and try this again.......

Ooh Birdy, am glad you had fun! Isn't the lead guy cute? He reminds me of Gregory Peck (in Roman Holiday).

bird I'm real glad you went--so we had somebody from the forum there after all. That's a good turnout for a midweek event. DF certainly won't get the response in the Midwest that they'd get on the West Coast or in New York, but I'm relieved that they got a response that big. Hopefully it will keep them coming back.

Thanks Guys for the positive feedback! I was so nervous to go: Will there be anyone there? (when I went and saw Top's movie "Tazza 2" it was the afternoon and there was hardly anyone there) Will I look out of place there by myself? Will it be so crowded it will be crazy?
I really wish they had more handouts- - I don't think it would have been asking to much to have t-shirts for DF members who bought tickets online-- afterall that would be free advertisment for them in the long run.
It's unfortunate that I did not think until way later, that I should have thought of a way to mention the Chicago Fan Board--after all we have people here that are not in Chicago and that might have brought us more traffic.
The movie is supposed to come to DramaFever in a few months, I would like to watch it again-and yes, Jewel I liked the lead guy! He was perfect in that role.
(I think I talked to the girl who started this post, I know someone mentioned the Korean Language Group to me)
