Big


Hey Everyone!

So, it has not been too long since my last post, though I probably should not be completing any dramas as I am studying. Either ways, I finally watched a drama I have been waiting to watch a for while now, called Big. I really liked the drama overall, but the ending left me a bit disappointed. Regardless, it was a cute drama with my favorite actress, Lee Min Jung (so pretty!). It was a drama about a girl named Kil Da Ran that was engaged to marry a guy named Seo Yoon Jae. The two had met at a friend's wedding by coincidence, but due to unusual circumstances, suddenly the two were engaged. However, since YJ was a busy doctor, he did not have time for DR, and that was when she met Kang Kyung Joon. He was a lonely kid, that started school at the school that DR was starting to teach at. The two also met under unusual circumstances, however at that time DR was madly in love with YJ. Since things were not going well, DR got frustrated and wanted to know how YJ felt about her. So, after KJ took her to a random place, as YJ was driving to there and KJ was leaving, the two got into an accident, and YJ saved KJ from drowning. Somehow, when the two resurfaced and made it to the hospital, KJ had returned in YJ's body and KJ's body was in a coma. There was a lot of shocks, but eventually the two made peace with the fact. However, problems arose between the real YJ and DR because there were all sorts of bad rumours about him (i.e. having an affair). Initially, DR did not believe in it, but eventually was really hurt by it and began to assume YJ did not love her. During this confusing time, KJ fell for DR and kept following her around in YJ's body. He was initially rejected by DR because of his age and since she was still in love with YJ. At that point, KJ left with YJ's mother to study and become more of an adult (basically to impress DR). When KJ returned, even DR was impressed by his new and mature self. The two continued to spend time together, and eventually DR started to have feelings for KJ. The rest of the drama explained the twisted relationship between KJ and YJ, as well as the obstacles that DR and KJ had to go through before getting the chance to be together. Overall, the drama was great, and had lots of fun and sad moments, but unfortunately, the ending left me with a bitter taste. I felt the ending was a bit rushed, and there needed to be more prologue shown about what happened with YJ coming back to life and just how DR planned to be with KJ. Although the ending was not amazing, the rest of the drama did have lots of ups and downs, and I did enjoy watching it. So, I gave this drama a 4 out of 5 stars. That's it for now.

Love Rain


 Hey Everyone!

It has been a while since I last posted. A lot has happened since then! The biggest change in my life is that I got engaged to the love of my life on August 24th =). Of course, soon afterwards, I had to return to the island for school. Unfortunately, there was a lot chaos with flights due to Hurricane Isaac. However, after a long flight, I finally made it back, safe and sound. During my break and after I returned to the island, I decided to watch Love Rain. It was one of the better dramas that I have watched in the past few months. It had great actors for lead - Jang Geun Suk (You're Beautiful) and Im Yoon Ah (SNSD). The drama was about a love between two generations. Initially they showed Seo In Ha and Kim Yoon Hee, falling in love in the 70's. That love was not able to sprout because YH became ill and left the country. In the meantime, IH got married and had a child. Few decades later, their children, Seo Joon and Jung Ha Na met in Japan. The two met under unusual circumstances, but eventually Joon fell for HN. But things got complicated when they realized their parents liked each other and were rekindling their old flame. The two decided to break up, but could not stay away from each other or stay near each other and be siblings. The rest of the drama involved the struggle between both couples in trying to help the other. There was a lot of internal struggle shown in the drama. It was also nice to see Jang Geun Suk in a proper role and great to see Yoon Ah in another drama after a long hiatus. The drama was well made, and I liked the cinematography as well. It was a cute plot, with lots of happy and sad scenes. I give this drama a 4.5 out of 5 stars. That's it for now.
