Ahahaha The Heirs. :D :D Which I watched only because I love Shin-hye so much, and also because of Minhyukkie. Although I think Kang Haneul is also getting to be an actor to watch out for (he reminds me of Bae Soo-bin)-- and it makes me laugh hearing Lee Min-ho call him sunbae when Haneul is the hoobae irl (Haneul is three years younger and entered showbiz later than Minho). 

I'm currently watching You From Another Star which is turning out to be awesome, although I do hope it continues to be so, seeing it's not even halfway though right now.

Actually I still keep wishing for a Shin-hye /Hong-ki starrer, to complete the YAB set lol.
Hong-ki's got a new drama (Hundred Year Bride) premiering February, though, so I'm also watching out for that... I think he's also one of the idols who can actually, yunno, act. (No, my being an FT Island fan doesn't make me biased at all. :P )

Oh you like Hong-ki eh ? I like him second in the group =) My bias in ft island is Min hwan. It would definitely be interesting to see him act omg. I wish i had time to watch all these =( college doesnt give me much space to watch as much as i want.  Ill wait till june to see what drama is it that Hong-ki will be acting in ^^

Well, I like them as a band. I still miss Wonbinnie. :D 
I just have fond memories of Jeremy from YAB.... part of the reason Fabulous Boys (the Taiwanese version) didn't quite cut it for me was that I kept comparing the Jeremy to Hongki's version and the other guy came up lacking (sorry to the actor but well lol). And well, Hongki irl is also quite a character. :P My poor bebe. I hope he's recovered well from his accident since he's back to filming his drama now.

1. They were more popularly known as a band called F4, or JVKV after they changed the name. They are a Taiwanese all boy band consisting of the four.

2. They are both actresses, though not from the same series. They are also both born in March.

3. They are all actresses, though like in my last answer, not all from the same films/series. They also all have brown eyes and very nice teeth, if I may say so.

4. Alright, it was really bugging me that I couldn't figure it out so I did more searching. I believe Ninomae Juichi (I think I spelled it right) is the answer.

5. Typhoon Ketsana struck the island.

Bonus: Bae Yong Joon.

Oh, I almost forgot. Hallyu~

1. Vic Chou, Jerry Yan, Vanness Wu and Ken Chu were more popularly known as...?

The Taiwan's F4 (flower boys) *o* They were in the drama Meteor Garden which was based on a manga, Boys Over Flowers (Hana Yori Dango).
(Still prefer the korean one)
They had to change the band name from F4 to JKVE because F4 belongs to the guy who copyrights Hana Yori Dango.

2. What do Park Min-young and GLAM's Dahee have in common?

Both born in March, are actresses, and Park Min-young acted as Kim Na-na in City Hunter while Dahee acted as Kim Na-na in Monstar. Unfortunately they don't share the same blood type ;c 
(Love Min-Young and Lee Minho *o*)

3. How about Ariel Lin, Jung So-min, Sato Aiko and Miki Honoka? What do they have in common?

They are different versions of Aihara Kotoko from Itazura Na Kiss in different years, 
Sato Aiko (1996)
Ariel Lin (2005)
Jung So Min (2010)
Miki Honoka (2013)

4. Name the drama character played by Kamiki Ryunosuke whose name is also misread as "one plus one" (一 十一). 

This dude sure takes part in a lot of Ghibli movies .-.
This was pretty hard ;o; I used google translate and listened to the japanese translation and heard Juiichi and googled and voila, Ninomae Juichi from Keizoku 2: SPEC

5. My next favorite Korean band next to CNBlue is F.T. Island. What natural disaster occurred during the filming of the music video for their song "Raining"?

The island they were filming at got struck by Typhoon Ketsana and left them out of contact and stranded.

Bonus question: Who is the Hallyu star popularly known as Yon-sama?

Bae Yong-joon



(I was hoping there'd be questions about Kim Woo-bin ;o;)
It was fun anyway!

Thank you for your entry, alyanabilla! :D
I will keep your hopes in mind for the next round ;)
(Well, actually, this will be going on until all the prizes are gone, so... :D )

About Kami-chan--- he's been a favorite of mine since Tantei Gakuen Q. I liked both him and Yamada Ryosuke in that drama, but somehow afterwards when I began watching their other dramas, I dropped Yama-chan and ended up watching Kamiki because he always ends up portraying fascinating characters-- even if they're villains.

The Second Wave of this Quiz is now officially closed.

The answers are:

6 points total

1. Vic Chou, Jerry Yan, Vanness Wu and Ken Chu were more popularly known as...?
-The Taiwanese boy band F4, which means "Flower 4". They had to drop the name due to copyright issues with the author of the manga Hana Yori Dango and used an acronym of their names, JVKV, instead. To do them credit, they hadn't originally intended to form a band at all. They only became known as F4 after they were individually cast in Meteor Garden, the Taiwanese adaptation of the manga. When the drama got a sequel, Meteor Garden 2, the boys as a group sang songs for the soundtrack, so people began thinking of them as a boy band called F4 and the name stuck.

2. What do Park Min-young and GLAM's Dahee have in common?
-Well, technically, Min-young is an actress/model and Dahee is an idol. Both, however, played (different, but equally badass) characters named Kim Na-na-- Park Min-young in City Hunter and Dahee in Monstar.

3. How about Ariel Lin, Jung So-min, Sato Aiko and Miki Honoka? What do they have in common?
-All of them played drama incarnations of Aihara Kotoko from the manga Itazura na Kiss. Sato Aiko was Kotoko in the 1996 Japanese drama version and Miki Honoka was Kotoko in the 2013 version, Itazura na Kiss - Love in Tokyo. Ariel Lin, on the other hand, was Yuan Xiang Qin in the Taiwanese adaptation It Started With A Kiss and the sequel They Kiss Again. Jung So-min was Oh Ha-ni in the Korean version, Playful Kiss.

4. Name the (suuuper twisted) drama character played by Kamiki Ryunosuke whose name is also misread as "one plus one" (一 十一). 
-Ninomae Juuichi in Keizoku 2: Spec. He writes his name that way because "ni no mae" means "before two," and the number before two is one. Since "juu ichi" is "eleven," basically he has named himself "one one one", which kind of reflects on his personality.

5. My next favorite Korean band next to CNBlue is F.T. Island. What natural disaster occurred during the filming of the music video for their song "Raining"?
-Ironically, it was Typhoon Ketsana, (September 23-30, 2009) which was the most devastating storm to ever hit Manila. FT Island arrived in the Philippines to shoot the MV for "Raining" just before the storm hit and were stranded and out of touch for a while. Thus, the storm clouds seen in the sky of the music video are most probably from Ketsana.

Bonus question: Who is the Hallyu star popularly known as Yon-sama?
-Bae Yong-joon. His 2002 drama Winter Sonata was one of the leaders of the Korean Wave and helped create an international audience for Korean dramas and K-pop.

--------------------------------

Scores:

1. Flannel - 3
2. Bluerayofsunshine - 5
3. Taka - 4
4. alyanabilla - 6
5. 
pinkpoodle124823 - 4
6. nyroc128 - 3

Congratulations for getting all the answers right, alyanabilla! :D
--------------------------------

Flannel, you may choose two numbers between 1 and 32, except for numbers 7 and 11. 
Bluerayofsunshine, you may choose two numbers between 1 and 28.
Taka, you may choose two numbers between 1 and 23, except for numbers 4 and 17.
alyanabilla, you may choose two numbers between 1 and 15.
pinkpoodle124823, you may choose two numbers between 1 and 23, except for numbers 4 and 17.
nyroc128, 
you may choose two numbers between 1 and 32, except for numbers 7 and 11.

In the case of two people who got the same scores and are choosing from the same prize bracket, if they both choose the same numbers, I will award the prize to the one who posted his/her choice first and the other person will have to choose another number.


--------------------------------

I shall post the questions to the Third Wave as soon as all the prizes for this Wave have been chosen and given out.
