Today saw the premieres of three dramas, all direct timeslot competitors on the Big Three broadcasters, but it was this show, Legend of the Blue Sea, that had the highest hype and the highest expectations. I'm always nervous when a show I'm looking forward to, which has writers and directors and actors I like very much, is beset by a lot of early buzz; it almost sets us up for disappointment, because it's rare that a show can live up to all that anticipation.

Well, for now Legend of the Blue Sea is safe, because it premiered to generally favorable response and impressive ratings: 16.4%, a rarity in today's landscape, against Oh My Geum-bi's 5.9% on KBS and Weightlifting Fairy Kim Bok-ju's 3.3% on MBC. Is that number justified? Despite my wariness to decide anything based on a first episode, I do think it delivered, and while I'm still waiting for some elements to gel and the story to truly get going, the first episode hit all the main points for me: intriguing characters, a wonderful performance in a sure-to-be-classic role for Jeon Ji-hyun, a hint of whimsy, and a dash of poignancy. It's not quite soup yet, but the ingredients are there and I'll harbor hopes that it'll continue to develop into a heartfelt and hilarious romance.

"WHAT DID YOU DO?!" I was immediately pushed by Jungkook, causing me to fall on my butt while Jungkook rushed towards his father, checking whether is he alive. "I told you not to butt into my business." Jungkook coldly said as he give me a death stare. "But if I did not come to your house, who's know you might be dead already." I retorted back. "What happen if I tell you I want to be dead and did you even think that by doing this, it will kill my only family member?! Oh no you wont because you got a perfect family and you want to brag about it." Jungkook said in sarcasm. ---- A story where Eunji and Jeon Jungkook, the school kingka and her bully became a fake couple for their own personal desires.

[COMPLETED] "H-Hey! Watch it! I don't want to walk around half naked in public...," he protested as he pulled his shirt back away from her hands, "Also, what do you mean my shell? This is a shirt." "Naked? What's that? Is that your name? Well, it's nice to meet you Naked. I'm Y/N," she introduced herself, smiling as she reached up and patted his head gently. "Actually, my name is Jungkook," he corrected as he felt awkward over the fact that a girl was patting his head. His eyes traveled down to the water and they opened wide in shock when he saw that she had a shimmering, purple tail attached to her waist. "Holy shit!" ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ It was just a regular day for famous kpop star, Jeon Jungkook, that is until he goes to the beach and comes across a very beautiful, but very confused mermaid. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ ~ Status ~ Started: May 26, 2018 Completed: September 25, 2021 ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ (Plot for this story is completely from my imagination.

The Buddhist Girl Transmigrated Into a Book by CaramelCarmella

Gu Mian transmigrated as the female partner of the popular novel "I'm So Popular". The original owner disliked the fact that the male lead came from a bad background and dumped him three times which resulted in a tragic end of their relationship. Gu Mian was fearless even when she was controlled by the plot. She only waited for the original plot to end so that she would retreat and hide her merit and fame. But! Gu Mian was stunned. Why couldn't she even break up for the first time? 　　- The male lead said indifferently, "I can't be your boyfriend anymore." Gu Mian breathed a sigh of relief, did he finally agree to break up? The male lead's thin lips twitched lightly, "So Mian Mian, let's get married." (Unlike 'I confessed to a cross dresser', there will be characters in it but the main focus will on the couple. I will be cutting stuff that isn't important to the plot) (one thing I hated about the novel was how everything resolved itself and had no conflict, not only that but Gu Mian feelings for Lou Che was never clear)
The Absence Of Euphoria by LAJoyner
12 parts Complete
A Maknae line story with Original Characters. Restlessly waiting on the lift for his grand entrance to his solo Euphoria, his manager runs over. "Jungkook, Jungkook, it's Jiah!" There is only one reason you would call during a concert. He struggled to catch his breath. "No, please. No!" This was the night Jungkook deeply felt the absence of euphoria. Your best friends, Tae and Jimin, are like family to your husband Jungkook, but can the four of you come out of betrayal, blackmail, and grief with hearts still intact? Just how powerful is the love of the Army, and will it be enough to reunite Jungkook with his family? Will the truth of the 'other woman' be revealed? This story is fiction, meaning it is not real and does not represent the persona it portrays as real-life people. It's a Maknae line story. BTSxOCs. Warning if you are sensitive: A death occurs but not of an MC and not by violence. (Disclaimer) I use Grammarly ONLY as an aid in proofreading. The most it does is show me where commas should be and where 'you' should be 'your' (I have a bad habit of dropping the r, lol). It also points out where there is an extra space to remove. It does not help me write the story or write my story for me.
