i think it might be a good idea to have a thread for those of us who are commenting on this series, and especially for those comments on the summaries that VIB of YSS is so kindly posting for us.
this way, we do not interrupt the flow of the episode posts and we can still express our appreciation to VIB and make our general comments on the series and anything else we wish to mention regarding this wonderful man.

well it is a labor of love
the admiral is one of korea's greatest treasures and one that should be shared with the nonkorean world as well

i just wish that series like the admiral, which if it continues like it has started, is one of the best i have ever seen....well it would just be so wonderful if one of the bigger, national cable stations would broadcast it and others like it. these historical dramas are treasures that should be shared....and there are so many who would watch if given the opportunity. and what a way to learn about other countries and their history.

skinz, if you truly want to wait for it to hit our tv screens, DO NOT LOOK AT THE FIRST EPISODE. i did, and am beyond any will power to stay away. i, too, cannot wait for it to get here on tv, assuming it will in the nj/ny area, so i can see it again.

I see you couldn't stay away too, Luvarchfiend. I already have a tape ready for it if it do come here in NY. I know what happen in the first episode because of VIB summary and I can't wait for the NINJAS!!!!!
I just finished watching the opening credits again and I told myself not to cry.
*Listening to the song played in opening credits
Sniff......Men don't cry...sniff
*Goes to corner and cry

skinz, if the intro made you get teary,
you'll need lots of kleenex for the first 4 episodes
real men are the ones who are the most comfortable crying
(goes to the corner and pats skinz consolingly on the back)

skinz, you are going to love this show. and it will make you cry. reading it is good, seeing it is spectacular. i can't wait to see your reaction after you see the first episode, and then the rest. i have viewed through 4, and it is just superb.

and the battle scenese
oh my god they are amazing
they used 2000 extras and animated in like 10000 more. it's crazy.
they didn't skimp on the sound effects either.
i know KBS doesn't have many (or any) of their dramas on DVD but they better have this one, with subtitles
they owe it to the admiral

Windows Media Player 9 works fine. If you don't have it, I guess you have to download it.

VIB of YSS.....
have you finished the summary on episode 5? just curious.
also, agree on your comments on the battle scenes, etc. it seems as if they spared no expense on this one.
as for it being available on dvd.....how can they NOT do that? it is just unthinkable. but i want AOW on dvd too.
they owe it to the admiral....they owe it to everyone.
