There ought to be a thousand more, but I've forgotten most of them (ironically, since they're 'memorable quotes') so here's all I can remember as of now. Will add more as I recall more/find more in new dramas!

In viewing order, from latest to oldest:

Finally, something on TVB to watch for after The Uninvited Date (aka Man Without Shadows)!! Starring who else but my dear Tavia? =P After Raymond Lam, Raymond Wong, and Ruco Chan (lol at all the Rs), a new pairing is taking over my heart! Kenneth Ma and Tavia Yeung! I love love love Tavia so much that I basically like all her pairings, even the pairing that was never to be - Steven Ma + Tavia Yeung. Not a big fan of Ron and Bosco + Tavia, but still ok. =D Even Alex Fong + Tavia Yeung in Building Blocks of Life was good. Such is the level of her acting and chemistry with all her paired up actors.

I so want this drama to do well in the ratings department so that TV station will be forced to open their eyes as to the treasure that they are being gifted with. Before she finally despairs and leaves, please, oh please, give her her due recognition!!

So, here I bring a translation of the theme song of The Hippocratic Crush by Joey Yung. Not a fan of Joey the actress, but I am very excited that she is singing a tvb theme song again!! The song likens life to a drama serial, hence the title. Will we be able to act out each scene to our satisfaction, before the story ends, at an unknown time in the future? Will we be able to take hold of the moment and act on our purest feelings, without hesitation and pretense? 

TVB電視劇《On Call 36小時》主题曲《連續劇》 主唱：容祖儿
TVB drama "The Hippocratic Crush" theme song "Drama Serial" by Joey Yung
Please do not repost without permission.

開首的一篇是某某出生
媽媽給寶寶奉上這一生 頭一吻
開端之後或晴或暗
怎麼走就像連續劇也
欠缺安穩

The first chapter begins with someone's birth
Mummy dedicating her whole life to her precious one, a kiss on the forehead
Brightness or darkness may follow after the opening
No matter which road we walk, it's like a drama serial
Lacking stability

或者　於某集我可抬頭欣賞到你
或者　一轉念便要失去你
或者　轉折漸太多　遺忘怎擁抱你
或者　擁緊偏已斷氣

Perhaps I'll lift my gaze and appreciate you one episode
Perhaps I'll lose you with one changed decision
Perhaps I'll forget how to embrace you as changes gradually accumulate
Perhaps breathing would have stopped when we embrace

情人们一呼一吸相愛到底　
結局或同樣
仍想將你我這幕　演得更理想
能修補即管修補　不要再想　
再一刻人便缺氧
熟悉的歌曲　等與你合唱

Lovers love with each breath they take
Even if the ending is the same
I still want to act out our scene more ideally
Fix everything that can be fixed, don't hesitate further
One moment more and we'll be out of breath
Waiting to sing that familiar song with you

新一章怎可是你我分開
可否改寫得像你我當初還相愛
只可惜上集難逆轉
傷感的下集仍然未播　我會修改

How can the new chapter be our separation?
Can it be rewritten like the beginning, when we were still in love?
But it's too difficult to salvage the previous episode
The sorrowful episode which follows is still unaired, I will amend it

如果　當晚没有分神来緊張佈置
如果　不必誤會再猜疑
如果　將對白說得平和　不加諷刺
如果　真的可有下次

If we hadn't got distracted trying to adorn our feelings nervously that night
If we don't misunderstand and suspect each other
If we speak the dialogue calmly, without adding satire
If there is really a 'next time'

情人们一呼一吸相愛到底　
結局或同樣
仍然能拖緊彼此　走絕地雪霜
如能重修好一雙　不要再想　
再一刻人便缺氧
明知可一起　不要再獨唱

Lovers love with each breath they take
Even if the ending is the same
Still, hold onto tightly to each other and walk through this snow-covered land
If one pair can be fixed, don't hesitate further
One moment more and we'll be out of breath
Don't sing alone anymore while knowing that you can be together

情人们一呼一吸相愛到底　
結局或同樣
仍想將你我这幕　演得更理想
如能重修好一雙　不要再想　
再一刻谁亦要退下场
多得你在場　多得我在場　天空也在場
演好這一章　呼吸太無常

Lovers love with each breath they take
Even if the ending is the same
I still want to act out our scene more ideally
If one pair can be fixed, don't hesitate further
One moment more and someone will have to leave the stage
Thankfully, you're here, I'm here and the sky also is here
Act out this chapter well, breathing is too unpredictable

With the recommendation by hanjae, I started playing this otome game called Star Project. Am currently on Scenerio 3 and this happened:

The brat of a Nino Touya Juntoshi (XP) is AGAIN complaining. This time round, food. So, of the four choices given (give in, walk away, sth else, and flip over the table), I grabbed the opportunity to scold that pampered kid and flipped the table. And the next thing I know, we're out to the supermarket to grab some ingredients for HIM to whip up a dish!

Since he's already quite a star (a newbie, but still recognised in public), some girls started to gossip about us, concluding that we don't resemble each other enough to be siblings, but neither do we act like a couple. Jealous/angry/whatever, I supposedly wanted to go over and give them a scolding, but Juntoshi had a better idea in mind:



Make them jealous!

And then, we checked out of the supermarket arm-in-arm, heading back to our shared quarters. And look at the said quarters:



Is that....the pig-rabbit from You're Beautiful? And SMAP's poster on the wall?

LOL. But this game is too restricted and hence easy to tire of. Plus, it takes really long for the guy to regain energy. I'll see how long I can last before backing out....

I knew I should have stopped at episode 11.

Where all was good. Where In Young finally started going out with Sung Hyun for real.

Finally out of pining for the damaged relationship, and starting on a new one with someone who seems to love her and take her for who she is, past relationship and residual feelings for her ex.

But...I started on the show after reading reviews that the ending made some diehard fans turn 180 degrees and write off the show entirely. So, I got curious and decided to watch on.

Preparing myself, I thought up various scenerios.

In Young realises that she actually loves Sung Soo still and hence breaks up with Sung Hyun to get back with the former.
In Young gets dumped by Sung Hyun after he gets tired of her (like many antagonist chaebols hailing from kdramaverse).
In Young stays single after realising that 'love is not everything, and woman can still find happiness even without a male companion' (yeah the usual kind when a drama tries to become inspiration and veer away from romance cliches).

Ok, so...what could be worse? I'll be able to deal with whatever ending the show throws me!

Great show. But my advice is, if you find yourself falling into the In Young-Sung Hyun camp, please just stop watching at Episode 11. Don't try to be adventurous and let the reality drama break your heart.

On a side-note, Choi Jin Hyuk, the actor playing Bae Sung Hyun, is hot. Like, real hot. He kisses like no one else does (ok, maybe that's coz we don't get to see much kissing in kdramas. LOL...but even in INR, he does it much better than Kim Jung Hoon). I need more of him! But he doesn't seem to appear in much shows! Oh, what do I do with this newfound crush??? This cute, hot guy who kijnd of resembles Lee Min Ho...

Have some non-NC-16 photos (the entire drama felt like soft porn tastefully inserted into a romance drama):

The awkward start of a romance...


This was the moment my heart started thumping wildly too. It was like, "YES! In Young is fonally feeling it, they are finally going to date for real!".


This is nothing compared to the kiss in the car....which I don't have a cap on. Wait. What cap? I NEED A GIF! SOMEONE!!! ANYONE!!!!


Such a desperate moment for him!! T.T


I had felt that Sung Hyun's screentime indicates that he might be  first lead equivalent, and held some hopes...but..alas, he is still the second lead. Of a kdrama. *pats on the back*


These are my type of abs. I dislike abs which are too defined and too....over.

And on a side-side-note, I find myself being drawn more to cabletv offerings lately. The last few dramas I've watched are: Flower Boy Ramyun Shop, I Need Romance, Colors of Woman, Padam Padam...and I'm intending to track down Vampire Prosecuter when I get the time. The last non-cable drama I've watched was Scent of a Woman...which ended in early September! Cabletv FIGHTING! Bring us more unconventional dramas please!

어려도 아픈 건 똑같아
세상을 잘 모른다고 아픈걸 모르진 않아
Although I'm young, I feel pain the same way
Not knowing about the world doesn't mean I don't know pain

괜찮아 질 거라고 왜 거짓말을 해
이렇게 아픈 가슴이 어떻게 쉽게 낫겠어
너 없이 어떻게 살겠어
그래서 난
Why do you lie that it'll get better
How can my heart recover so easily when it's hurting so much?
How do I live on without you?
That's why,

*죽어도 못 보내
내가 어떻게 널 보내
가려거든 떠나려거든 내 가슴 고쳐내
아프지 않게 나 살아갈 수 라도 있게
안 된다면 어차피 못살 거
죽어도 못 보내
I can't send you off even if I die
How can I send you off?
If you want to go, if you want to leave, fix my heart
So that it won't hurt, so that I'll be able to live on
If you can't do that, since I won't be able to live anyway
I won't send you off even if I die

아무리 니가 날 밀쳐도
끝까지 붙잡을 거야 어디도 가지 못하게
No matter how you push me away
I will cling onto you till the end, so that you won't be able to go anywhere

정말 갈 거라면 거짓말을 해
내일 다시 만나자고 웃으면서 보자고
헤어지잔 말은 농담이라고
아니면 난
If you're really going, lie to me
"Let's meet again tomorrow", "Let's meet while smiling"
"I was joking about breaking up"
Otherwise,

Repeat *

그 많은 시간을 함께 겪었는데
이제와 어떻게 혼자 살란 거야
그렇겐 못해 난 못해
We went through so much together
How can we live alone now?
We can't do that, I can't

죽어도 못 보내
정말로 못 보내
내가 어떻게 널 보내
가려거든 떠나려거든 내 가슴 고쳐내
아프지 않게 나 살아갈 수 라도 있게
안 된다면 어차피 못살 거
죽어도 못 보내
I can't send you off even if I die
I really can't send you off
How can I send you off?
If you want to go, if you want to leave, fix my heart
So that it won't hurt, so that I'll be able to live on
If you can't do that, since I won't be able to live anyway
I won't send you off even if I die

闇ばかりの夜に、たった一人放り込まれてしまったら
あなたはそこで、光を見つけることができるだろうか
その光をつかもうとするだろうか
それとも
光なき世界に光を与えようとするだろうか
あなたのその手で

If you were thrown into the darkness of the night, all alone
Will you be able to find light there?
Will you grasp onto that light?
Or,
Will you bring light into that world without light?
With those hands of yours.

Jin season 2 episode 11 (finale) closing sequence, as narrated by Jin, as though he was addressing Miki after learning from the timeslip experience brought to him by Miki:

Jun
Kouhaku has finally arrived.
This year,
To stand on stage as the emcee,
It is very meaningful and a great responsibility.

Sho
This is a year where many things happened.
There might be people who are still unable to let this year come to a close
But I hope that we can move forward, even if just a bit.

Aiba
The theme this year is "Let's sing of tomorrow".
With everyone else who is watching the show,
Let's dream of tomorrow.
Let's embark on tomorrow.

Nino
It is the day where singers,
Who had believed in the strength of songs in this one year, gather.
It is the 31st of December.
