I swear I am not an avid fan of Korean dramas.
I have my fair share of favorites like Goong, My Name is Kim Sam Soon and Scent of a Woman (Note: Kim Sun Ah features in both) but I don't watch every single Korean drama out there, especially usually not those that are super popular like City Hunter (SORRY QIAN HAHA), Boys Over Flowers etc.

BUT WHAT IS HAPPENING TO ME.
Started off with Scent of a Woman then Wild Romance then Fashion King (but I officially died around episode 14 and I fast forwarded my way through too) and now Queen In Hyun's Man. (THANKS QIAN HAHA)

 I ain't a fan of historical dramas or time travel funky stuff but QUEEN IN HYUN'S MAN IS REAL GOOD.
Like it's one of those dramas where you start cause you're bored and expect to die around episode 3 but you get hooked right at the start.
And of course the main male lead Gim Bung Do is sooooooooooooo charming.
The upright scholar from 300 years ago who is calm, gentle, caring, smart and with a beautifulllllll smile.

And then there are upcoming dramas like I do I do with my favourite Kim Sun Ah and Big with super good looking Gong Yoo.

I am so gone man.



It's sad to see how you have changed so much.
But then again you change, I change.
You hang out with new people, I hang out with new people.
If we were to meet right now as strangers, I bet we wouldn't even get along anymore.

New WOW short drama:

罪与罚- 'Crimes and Punishments'

 

With my favourite Kengo Kora. One of the best young actors in Japan right now imo hehe.
It's a 6 episode drama about an introverted college student who dreams of becoming a writer and one day he discovers a school girl prostitution group run by a female high school student. He schemes to kill her but unforeseen circumstances drag him into a series of ‘crime and punishments’.

Only at episode 2 so don't know what are the unforeseen circumstances yet but I am looking forward to see how the story unfolds. (:



Satisfied my karaoke craving earlier tonight.
And my friend introduced me to this song, holy crap I am smitten hehe.

I have seen this dude's ktv videos on youtube but they all like the mushy whiny type but this is goodddddd.
His voice is still whiny but that could be considered his distinctive flavour.
And if you have a face like that, play the guitar and write good songs like this... it makes up for it. (:

'Do you know when a man is most pathetic? It's when he hasn't earned the heart of the woman he likes. Men don't just want the woman they love next to them, but their hearts as well. When you are this close to me, knowing that I can't have you is too heartbreaking. So I came up with a solution. if I can't have you, no one else can have you either.'

- Jung Jae Hyuk from Fashion King

Bad ass character like the crazy possessive guy from 'What Happened in Bali' who killed the girl he likes the the other guy who liked her. Basically the guy who doesn't get the girl at the end of the day.

Extremely cringe-worthy words that if said in real life would just warrant an eye roll and a slap.
But when a good looking guy says that in a purely fictional drama, it's considered charming HEHEHEHEHE.

And so it's my Damien Rice time of the month again and this time 'Grey Room' is on repeat.

Well I've been here before
Sat on the floor in a grey grey room
Where I stay in all day
I don't eat, but I play with this grey grey food

Desole, if someone is prayin' then I might break out,

Desole, even if I scream I can't scream that loud

I'm all alone again

Crawling back home again
Stuck by the phone again

Well I've been here before

Sat on a floor in a grey grey mood
Where I stay up all night
And all that I write is a grey grey tune

So pray for me child, just for a while

That I might break out yeah
Pray for me child
Even a smile would do for now

'Cause I'm all alone again

Crawling back home again
Stuck by the phone again

Have I still got you to be my open door

Have I still got you to be my sandy shore
Have I still got you to cross my bridge in this storm
Have I still got you to keep me warm

If I squeeze my grape then I drink my wine

'Cause if I squeeze my grape and I drink my wine
Oh, 'cause nothing is lost, it's just frozen in frost,
And it's opening time, there's no-one in line

But I've still got me to be your open door,

I've still got me to be your sandy shore
I've still got me to cross your bridge in this storm
And I've still got me to keep you warm

Warmer than warm, yeah

Warmer than warm, yeah
Warmer than warm, yeah
Warmer than warm, yeah


Like a beautiful poem that might appear in lit class hahaha.
I love Damien Rice sooooooooo much, I HAVE to catch him live man <3
I'll be waiting for my chance. (:

I love Blogger's new layout and the fonts being used hehe.

But anyway, what a lovely Sunday afternoon it has been.
My type of chill and worry-free afternoon which I haven't had in quite a while.
Waking up in the afternoon, food in the kitchen and enjoying it over this new Japanese drama I found called Innocent.

It is a mini drama produced by WOWOW, which is like the Japanese version of Focus Features.
So expect some freaking awesome shows with very unique plots, great acting and stylish directing.
Innocent is another mini drama, similar to Shokuzai which was shown a couple of months before, and it is just as good.

 There are 4 episodes, each revolving around their own female protagonist, and there is a common element of love in all 4 stories.

Perhaps the drama is about how each of these women, despite their different ages and phase in life, have a very innocent approach to love.
However, along the way things may not be going as well and some may be leading mundane lives as housewives while others are trapped in a fruitless affair.
But each of them learn to deal with the situation they are in and each story is developed very well.

The drama really shows the realistic side of relationships and marriages, which is something that a lot of girls need to learn about and stop living in their Taylor Swift inspired fairy tales. But each story closes by offering a somewhat bittersweet and comforting ending so it is encouraging as well.

Today I decided to stay home to study.



Obviously I have not gotten any of that going cause I have been jumping around the house holding my own karaoke session. OH YEAH.

盧廣仲's talent, passion and sincerity is always so charming. OH YEAH.

Ok time to try and hit the books. OH YEAH.
