Descendants of the Sun
Saturday, April 9, 2016
If you haven't been living under a rock in the last few weeks, you would probably have heard about this drama already. Actually if you were living under a rock, you might still have heard about it.
Yes because it's that big a deal - it's been viewed over 2 billion times in China and raked in over 40% nation-wide viewership in South Korea. The best part being, the show hasn't even ended its run!
The Koreans have done it again
I thought I could never love another...
Grandpa over Flowers
Thursday, June 19, 2014
Was channel surfing some months back and this Korean variety show came up. Who would have thought watching 4 elderly men go on a backpacking trip would be so fun and interesting? I most certainly did not!
If you find the title familiar - well because it's a reference to the Korean drama Boys Over Flowers - you know that Korean adaptation of Meteor Garden/Hana Yori Dango featuring the ever famous F4. Since these 4 men are much much older, hence Grandpa over Flowers.
The aim of the show is...

Hola!
I'm still alive. :)
New management in the company + new role in office = madness in my real world. In order to escape from the new office craziness in the form of a German CEO, I've rediscovered the beauty of Korean dramas.
Have stayed away from them for the longest time (besides the epic ones based history or decent storylines) mainly because I'm quite done with the senseless crying, unnecessary suffering for love and the incessant need for at least one character to die of cancer/lose...
Current Addiction: Secret Garden
Sunday, October 28, 2012
You know you have to watch a certain Korean drama when 2 of your male friends insist you do. To put things in perspective, they were never the kind who even had the time to catch anything remotely close to awesome shows like How I Met Your Mother or Big Bang Theory. Ok scrap that, they don't even watch TV or shows of any sorts. Hahaha.
Anyway, back to the show. Secret Garden is pretty much your usual Korean drama - dashing rich perfect male lead and your poor righteous pretty female lead....
Ooo them sexy legs

I'm not the biggest fan of fashion shows because they bore me most of the time.
However, I do look forward to one each year. Yes! Victoria's Secret Fashion Show! Watch the full show here!!
Endless legs ftw...
Silence of Love

The Thai-s have this way of making their commercials creatively hilarious or way too touching.
This one made me cry man.

Personal Preference (개인의 취향 )
Sunday, October 24, 2010
I'm so hooked onto this show now - managed to comb through 7 episodes of it in the midst of my all-sleep-and-nothing-else weekend ever since I got back from Shanghai on Friday night
Doesn't help that the dude is so gorgeous!!
Even when his hair is not combed properly.
Back to drama madness...
Criminal Minds
Sunday, August 22, 2010
I love Criminal Minds.
It's so cool to be a criminal profiler! (Ok I know it's only TV). I love how they always start and end the show with a quote (and very relevant to the show).
Did I mention I really love Aaron Hotchner?
So hot la. (Yes he was the Greg in Dharma loves Gre...
More We Got Married
Sunday, March 29, 2009
I'm currently at episode 22 (I haven't progressed from Boys Over Flowers yet..lol) for We Got Married.
Oh it's just really really really funny. And this episode takes the cake so far - Hyun Joong and Hwang Bo (known as the JoongBo couple)goes for a wedding shoot to commemorate the 100th day they are together as "married" couple.
I totally love how he makes his "wife" laugh out loud ALL THE TIME. LOL
Ok maybe all the episodes with them takes...
We Got Married
Thursday, March 26, 2009
I haven't been watching Boys Before Flowers these days (no I will stil catch up with it when the DVD is ready - streaming is a pain in the ass) - because I am now chasing We Got Married!
It's a really popular reality show in Korea which features celebrities being matched up randomly and they have to complete missions every week together as a "married" couple and actually live together like one.
My favourite couple (both personally and by polls) - of course is BBF's Kim Hyun Joong (the Yoon Ji...
And then more Boys Before Flowers (꽃보다 남자)
Tuesday, March 24, 2009
My current playlist on the iPod is just BBF's soundtrack. It's great!
1) Paradise by T-Max:
2) Starlight Tears (별빛눈물) - Kim Soo Young:
3) Stand By Me - SHINee:
I have so much motivation to go revive my Korean Language notes like pronto. Haha
And listening to this person play Starlight Tears on piano..:
Makes me want to practise my piano too!!!!!!
Ok I need to go reply some emails. Back to planet earth. ...
More Boys Before Flowers
Saturday, March 21, 2009
I am currently at episode 4.
I'm starting to think...Gu Jun-Pyo (the supposedly Tsukasa Doumoyouji 道明寺 司- leader of F4) is more gorgeous! He's extremely charismatic in the show- he has got to be the best Doumoyouji so far!
The Leader of F4 look:
Those trademark Doumoyouji curly locks. HAHA
He looks pretty good as the normal Lee Min Ho (real name):
He's only....22!!!!! OMG.
We have reached a time when the current hottest idols..are younger than us.....

Amanda's entry on Boys Before Flowers is making me want to watch too!
This is the korean version of Meteor Garden aka Hana Yori Dango:
Shit. The boys just get better and better looking with every re-make of these F4 thingys.
This is the first time I actually think the Hanazawa Rui, looks like a freaking Hanazawa Rui!
Guys are getting beautifulllll these days. LOL...
Gossip Girl
Sunday, October 26, 2008
Rarrhhhhh
I am super addicted to Gossip Girl. I think I have too many addictions of late. Lol
I even find the opening of the show:
incredibly attractive. Especially the xoxo part. Haha
So what's Gossip Girl about?
Gossip Girl is an American television teen drama inspired by the popular novel series of the same name, written by Cecily von Ziegesar. Gossip Girl satirizes and revolves around the lives of socialite young adults growing up on New York City's Upper East Side who attend elite...

Besides "Starry starry night", this is the other song which Hong-Kong drama, Heart of Greed (溏心风暴) got me hooked on. This is also one of the rare Hongkie drama which I actually have the urge to finish it. The plot is tight, the cast are good, the music is great.
It's been the song to accompany me to bed these days coz it's so peaceful, so simple.
My love will get you home - Christine Glass
If you wander off too far, my love will get you home.
If you follow the wrong star, my love will...

I am so hooked onto The Golden Path! Omg! It's one of the rare Channel 8 shows I really think has a pretty good plot and has a strong cast to go with it.
I am catching up on the episodes on www.tudou.com Those who haven't watched it, go watch it on Tudou!
It's worth a watch, I swe...

You must be thinking that I am crazy to post this at like 6 smth am in the morning. Hahaha..I just finished my Doing Business in China report. The brain is still in a rather active mode while I am sipping my milo now. So I shall write a post to freshen up my day before starting on my Analysis of Equity Investment assignment.

恶作剧之吻
Thursday, December 7, 2006
OK I am NOT done with the show yet but kinda know the story ending by reading it off the net :) AHHHHHH so nice! I really prefer it to the Japanese version 7 years ago man! Given I am at around episode 12 now, I have heard most of the songs of the OST. AHHHH!!!!! Uber nice!!!! All the songs are really good. No wonder this show topped the ratings charts for 18 weeks in Taiwan when it first came out. Progressed to top the ratings charts in Japan, Hong Kong and China as well. Ahhh, nice songs, good...
