Romantic Island

Hey Everyone!

So, this is the movie I actually watched today, and finished just recently called Romantic Island. Again, a movie with Eugene in it. She looked really great in the bikini scene! Wow. Anyways, this movie was about three different pairs of people, with their own storylines, yet all three pairs went to the Philippines for a vacation for various reasons. Soo Jin goes because she needs to get away from reality of her current situation. Jae Hyuk goes because he recently found out his father passed away there. Ga Young is a singer, who needed to get away from her stressful work schedule. Jung Hwan just needed to get away from his reality as well between jobs. Joong Sik and Yoon Suk (married couple) go because JS decides after hearing of a brain tumour, that he needs to kill himself in order to leave money for his family. SJ and JH meet coincidentally in a hotel lobby, and end up falling for eachother due to SJ's bubbly personality that uplifts JH's sullen personality. GY meets JH by coincidence at the airport, and he ends up being her servent because she is there alone for the first time and not used to doing things for herself (he helps because he's a nice guy, and wow celeb!). They end up having a great time together, and end up having sex even after a drunken night! However, since JH recently got out of a relationship, he was unsure how to react to his new venture (plus she's celeb!), so he makes GY feel like he is rebounding with her, so she leaves him. SJ also tells JH to go back to Korea without her, because this was her attempt to get away from reality and to run away. In the meantime, JS hires an assasian to kill him, however changes his mind when his wife decides to have a wedding ceremony for them (they never got a chance to have a real wedding), and she said she wants him to live and do the operation because she and their daughter cannot live without him. Though, JS tries to stop the assasian, in the end it was not possible, and coincidentally all three men's pictures were given to the child (that's right). The child did find the right guy in the end, and ended up not shooting anyone since it's New Years eve (lucky!). Anyways, when back in Korea, it is seen that JS has his operation successfully, and they are happy together as a family. GY goes to find JH after a successful song debut (a year later). Finally, SJ sends JH the pictures from her trip indicating that she's returned from her trip and that he can come find her now. The movies ends with the two of them finally meeting again, and recalling a kiss shared on a boat. JH's speech at the end was too cute! Watch it and you'll smile for sure (afterall it is Lee Seon Gyun!). So yes, overall, mainly just for having Eugene and the cutest ending, I give this drama a 5 out of 5 stars as well! That's it for today.

I'm off,
