Welcome to SID Guardian!

[trobadora]

Hi, and welcome to SID Guardian!

sid_guardian is a noticeboard/community for:

• linking Guardian fanworks of all kinds


• linking to Guardian-related news (incl. info about the actors and their other roles) and meta (incl. serious meta, squee, picspams, episode reactions, writing-meta)


• making Guardian recs, and


• making fanworks-finder/rec-finder posts.


• ETA: You can also post content directly to the comm.

Which is to say, it's for letting Guardian fans find each other on Dreamwidth. :)

Please link your Guardian-related posts here! Whether novel or drama, this is the place for it. Don't be shy, and please encourage other Guardian posters to link as well. You can also link to/rec things that have been posted by others.

As the comm develops, we hope to introduce social, discussion and/or prompt posts, but given it's December, we thought we'd start small and manageable.

To kick things off, if you feel like it, tell us a bit about how you ended up in Guardian fandom! Or let us know your favourite character or scene from Guardian, or what your power would be if you were Dixingren.

And remember, there's no tension that can’t be relieved with a lollipop. And if there is, try two lollipops.

it's spreading like the flu. ;-)

Hee! YAY!

Yunlan's just so sharp and insightful and competent. He can hold his own as a human facing inhumanly powerful people - and he's also so open-minded and kind and passionate about protecting *everyone*, not just humans. I also love his flippant, irreverent, cheeky ways, and the streak of recklessness and lack of care for himself, and how none of it can conceal how much he truly *cares*.

This whole description gave me heart-eyes, seriously. YES!

Hai! *waves* (Ooh, speak to me of Kdramas! What are you watching? What are your favourites? Hi!)

Kdramas! It's actually been a bit tricky watching them lately because Dramafever went down, and my other usual sources have also been drying up. :-/ So I am not watching any current kdramas right now, though I have my eye on several.

My favorites, hmmm... Mawang, Dal Ja's Spring, Kim Sam Soon, Greatest Love, My Love from Another Star, Queen Inhyeon's Man, What's Up Fox, 49 Days (although I HATE the ending)... and I loved the first half of Spy Myung-Wol so much that I still mourn its rapid decline. A lot of tohers too, but those are the ones I can think of right now! :-)

What are your favorites?

[china_shop]

I have an annotated list here, but my absolute favs are Healer, Weightlifting Fairy Kim Bok Joo, and Chief Kim. Currently rewatching While You Were Sleeping with one friend and Capital Scandal with another, and I've just started My Secret Terrius by myself (it's very Scarecrow and Mrs King!).

I could never get the streaming sites to work with my geolocation (and I don't trust 'em), so I either watch on Netflix or *ahem* download. (Let me know if you want details.)

I tried Greatest Love but bounced off it. But I've loved many other Hong sisters ones -- maybe I should give it another go! :-)

[rheasilvia]

I just started watching Healer! I think I was watching too many other things when it first came out, but I've always wanted to try it again.

Greatest Love is my favorite Hong Sister drama, but it does take a bit of getting used to - the hero (and his facial hair choices) needs to grow on you, I find. :-)

And, yes, I would love details. :-)

I don't think I can talk about Healer -- I only have FLAIL! (It is seriously so great -- identity porn, and a fantastic romance, and saving the world through journalism, and the plot actually makes sense!!)

This site has a ton of Asian dramas available for download. It's free, but if you throw them a little bit of money, it's a lot faster and you can parallel download. They also take requests, if you're looking for something recent (but only things that have already finished). I think that's where I got Guardian, in the end, though I had to look elsewhere for subs at that stage.
