The King 2 Hearts

Hey Everyone!

I just finished the drama called The King 2 Hearts. It was an interesting drama about the need for a collaboration between South and North Korea. The drama was mainly about Lee Jae Ha and Kim Hang Ah. JH was the Crown Prince of South Korea, whereas HA was a military officer from North Korea. The drama began with JH coming out from the army and being sent to join the WOC (World Officers Championship). This was the first time Korea could qualify for it because the two nations came together to join forces. At the training, JH met HA. JH was a bratty and selfish Prince, whereas HA was a boisterous military personnel (the two clashed from the start). JH had no interest in the joining of forces between the South and North, but his brother (the King) was determined to have the collaboration (for peace between the nations). However, not only did the King plan the collaboration, but he wanted to up the antics by having JH marry a North Korean girl. In the meantime, JH had to go through many obstacles to finally trust the soldiers of the North. Eventually, Club M's president (John Mayer) came into the picture. He was a psychopath that wanted the throne to himself, so he used his influence (his company deveoped military weapons) to cause more trouble before a collaboration could occur. The rest of the drama revolved around finding mutual trust between North and South Korea and their struggles with John Mayer. It was a really interesting drama that showed the struggles between the two nations. It was nice to see that they fought for peace till the end. I give this drama a 4.5 out of 5 stars. That's it for now.

After the Banquet (Korean Movie)

Hey Everyone!

I just finished another Korean movie called After the Banquet. It was a cute movie, that started off with a wedding between friends from college. It had been 15 years after they met, and all of their friends from the college days came to the wedding except one. After the wedding, they all decided to spend a few days together with the bride and groom since it had been so long since they all saw each other. However, suddenly, Mi Rae appeared, a 15 year old girl that was the daughter of the missing friend. It turned out that their friend died one year ago, and since all the friends gathered together, she wanted to find out who her father was. The rest of the movie showed the relationships between each character and the discovery of who MR's father was. It was a cute movie but I admit to have skimmed through a bit because it was a little slow. I give this movie at 3.5 out of 5 stars. That's it for now.

Emergency Couple

Hey Everyone!

I finished the drama Emergency Couple a few days ago, but had a few things going on that kept me busy. Since I came on after finishing another drama today, I figured I should write this review as well. The drama was mainly about Oh Jin Hee and Oh Chang Min. The two got married when they were young, but because of differences, they got a divorce. Now, a few years later, the two met again in the Emergency department. The rest of the drama revolved around JH and CM becoming close again and learning what went wrong in the first place. The drama was a cute romantic comedy. I give this drama a 4 out of 5 stars. That's it for now.

Beyond the Clounds

Hey Everyone!

I just finished another drama just now (well, actually, I finished a different drama last week, but will post that summary after this, since it's fresh in my mind right now). Anyways, the drama was called Beyond the Clouds, and it was really good! I usually avoid melodramas, but since this was a new Han Ji Hye drama, I had to give it a try. The opening scene was intense, as we saw Jung Se Ro for the first time in a dramatic manner. From that scene, they go 5 years into the past to show what had happened to cause SR's angst. It turned out, SR was a simple young adult, that lived a simple life. However, his father was a thief by profession and lived in Thailand comitting his thefts. SR was worried about his father, so he went to Thailand to see what was going on. In the meantime, SR's father was planning a big diamond theft with Park Kang Jae and Seo Jae In from Bel Laffair. In Thailand, there was an international jewellery exhibition, where Bel Laffair's CEO, Han Young Won was displaying her jewellery. The diamonds that SR's father was going to steal, happened to be in the hands of YW's fiancee Gong Woo Jin. On the night of the theft, WJ figured out what was going on and followed the thieves, so KJ decided to lock WJ up in their hideout. Unfortunately, SR ended up arriving to Thailand on the night of the theft, and found WJ in his father's house. Suddenly, out of nowhere, WJ was shot. SR was startled, so he called YW to inform her that WJ was shot. That night, was the night that changed many lives. By the end of the night, SR's father got into an accident, WJ died, and poor SR was arrested and framed for the murder of WJ. Because SR was arrested, he could not pay for his father's surgery, so his father also passed away while SR was in jail. Five years later, SR came out of jail and was on a mission to get revenge on those that put him behind bars (i.e. anyone related to Bel Laffair). The rest of the drama, revolved around SR learning the secrets behind his arrest and his long journey to getting revenge and falling in love with the wrong person. The drama was very intense and the story was very touching. I give this drama a 4.5 out of 5 stars. That's it for now.

A Werewolf Boy (Korean Movie)

Hey Everyone!

So, I finally decided to watch the movie A Werewolf Boy. It was a touching story about Soon Yi and her family moving to the countryside due to her respiratory illness. There she met an unusual boy that grew up in the wilderness, whom they named Chul Soo. Initially, SY could not stand CS, but eventually decided to tame him. The rest of the movie revolves around SY learning more about CS, and CS learning how to be human. It was a cute movie, but I'll be honest, I started watching it because Song Joong Ki and Park Bo Young starred in it. They did a great job in the movie. I give this movie at 4.5 out of 5 stars. That's it for now.

Hot Young Bloods (Korean Movie)

Hey Everyone!

I just finished another Korean movie after a while, called Hot Young Bloods. It was an extremely cute drama about teens in the 1980's. The plot revolved around Young Sook and Joong Gil. JG was the biggest play-boy in the high school. He had seduced almost all the girls in the school except YS. YS was the school Jjang (gang leader/best fighter), and so JG avoided seducing her (also because a Jjang at another school claimed her to be his girl and threatened JG). YS however, had a huge crush on JG and continuously sought his attention. JG never gave YS a chance, especially as soon as Soo Hee (a beautiful transfer student) showed up. JG follwed SH around and wanted to seduce her. In the meantime, YS was becoming more and more jealous of JG's affections for SH. The rest of the movie revolved around a few revelations that made the plot even deeper. I really like this movie because it showed that there are many sides to stories, and without realizing the truth, you never know what you are missing out on! I give this movie a 5 out of 5 stars because it had several surprises. That's it for now.

Two Weeks

Hey Everyone!

So, I suddenly finished another drama today called Two Weeks. It was honestly amazing! It has been a while since I wanted to marathon a drama because I was on the edge of my seat during every episode! If I didn't have to study everyday, I would have marathoned the whole series in less than two days. The drama was a suspense themed drama. It was mainly about Jang Tae San and the many obstacles in his path to save his new-found daughter's life. Initially, TS had no idea he even had a daughter until one day, his ex-girlfriend, Seo In Hye showed up. Their daughter, Seo Soo Jin had cancer and needed a bone marrow transplant. TS was shocked to find out that he had a daughter, but he agreed to do the test, and miraculously, he was a match. The surgery was to take place two weeks later, but in the meantime, a gang-leader decided to frame TS for a murder. TS knew that he had to keep away from infections, so he decided to escape from his imprisonment (since the people that framed him, wanted to kill him). During his escape, the Prosecutor Park Jae Kyung and detective Im Seung Woo were the ones trying to catch TS. JK had her own motive to catch TS, and SW (who was in charge of TS's case) happened to be IH's fiancee. The rest of the drama revolved around TS trying to clear his name and save his daughter! This drama was so intense, that I finished the series within three days. I give this drama a 5 out of 5 stars because it kept me glued to my screen the whole time. That's it for now.

I Need Romance 3

Hey Everyone!

So, I just marathoned the drama I Need Romance 3 this weekend! Initially, I needed something to fill the gap after watching Shut Up Flower Boy Band. Of course, it helped that the lead male actor (Sung Joon) was in both dramas (lol). Anyways, this drama was just what I needed this weekend. I have been recovering from a cold, and what I really needed was a sappy romantic comedy. And that is exactly what I got. The drama was mainly about Shin Joo Yun and Joo Wan. JY had taken care of Wan when he was a baby because his mother paid her mother to be a nanny (Wan was 6 years younger than JY). When Wan turned 9, he emigrated to the US, but before he left, he promised JY that he would come back one day. 17 years later, he came back to Korea as a successful music composer and writer (by the name of Joo Allen). When JY found out he returned, she called him and told him not to bother coming to live with her (since her memories of taking care of Wan were nothing like he remembered). However, Wan had other plans. In the meantime, JY was dumped by her boyfriend, yet she was emotionless; she did not cry or make a scene or even ask him to stay. A few days later, Wan was DJ'ing an event where JY had gone with her company colleagues. There, she found Wan staring at her, and she felt exhilarated that such a young guy found her attractive (she had no idea who he was). But unfortunately, Wan was there with her arch nemesis, Oh Se Ryung. SR had stolen JY's first boyfriend many years ago, but what hurt JY the most was that SR was her bestfriend. Since this incident was the first time the two had interacted in years, the two cursed each other right in front of Wan. Wan had no idea that it was JY (possibly someone that resembled her), and refused to believe it was her because the JY he remembered was a sweet and innocent girl. But to Wan's dismay, it turned out that it was his JY. So, Wan went on a mission to bring back the old sweet JY. The rest of the drama revolved around Wan trying to make JY "human" again whilst trying to figure out his and her true feelings. There were a few other cute side stories as well. I really liked this drama because it was more realisitic. It showed that you cannot give up on love and just be with someone because they are the "right fit". You should love someone that makes you feel loved. I felt that was a good interpretation of love as I still feel that way about my fiancee (10 years and counting). The drama was relatable and it also had a very "Sex and the City" vibe. I definitely give this drama a 5 out of 5 stars. That's it for now.

Shut Up Flower Boy Band

Hey Everyone!

I just finished another drama today! The drama was called Shut Up Flower Boy Band. It was honestly one of the best "music" genre dramas I have seen. It was mainly about a group friends that were part of band called Eye Candy. Initially, the group was made up for six boys; Lee Byung Hee, Kwon Ji Hyuk, Lee Hyun Soo, Jang Il Do, Seo Kyung Jung, and Kim Ha Jin. But then, unfortunately BH died from an unexpected accident. After than incident, the boys went on a journey to get the song BH composed to be known to the world. Their main goal was to enter in the Rock Festival because before BH's passing, he had signed them up for it. However, to perform, the boys had to stay in school. Due to that, JH became the new band leader and helped the boys get on the stage at the Rock Festival. The rest of the drama involved the band growing closer and learning more about themselves through their musical journey. As well, there were developing feelings between JH and Im Soo Ah (who was also BH's muse). The drama was great because it showed how strong of a friendship the boys had. Through many ups and downs, the boys grew to trust eachother and enjoy music while doing so. It was really nice to see something so refreshing for once. I definitely give this drama a 5 out of 5 stars. That's it for now.
