april-shows1Besh yung totoo, busy naman talaga ako sa work at pagiging single mom ko. Hindi lang pala isa yung work ko besh, may full time job ako at dalawang part time Upwork clients. Pero sinisingit ko pa rin si Oppa sa mala-Divisoria ko na schedule. Ang mga KDrama ang nagpapaga-an ng Mondays ko besh! O di kaya kung sobrang busy sa office, KissAsian or Dramahood agad pag-uwi sa bahay (after Mommy duties though).

So this week, eto yung mga pinapanood ko besh: Continue reading →

What I Think + Spoilers: This was not my cup of tea. I thought the idea of an alien as handsome as Min-joon is weird so I had a hard time. This is the only Korean drama that I did not binge watch. I would have stopped watching however my curiosity got the best of me. I wanted to know how they’re going to end the story though I knew it’s going to have happy ending. I did learn that there are five stages of grief – anger, denial, bargaining, depression and acceptance, and that girls move on faster than boys.

40-you-who-came-from-the-stars-fashion-review-gianna-jun-ji-hyunI don’t like Song-yi’s character here. She’s so loud and arrogant, not a character that you can really fall in love with. She talks too much too. But she’s very pretty.

lee_hee_kyungBut I’m here once again because of Park Hae-jin. Ha! His older brother Jae-kyung is the antagonist here, a serial killer. I’ve read a review somewhere that Hee-kyung (played by Park Hae-jin) however is even worse. I kept dreading the part where he would turn really bad. But it was fair. When he let his father listened to the recording where Hee-kyung killed their older brother, I thought that was just right. Hee-kyung killed too many people and he deserved what he got in the end.

Far Away Love, Li Fei Er, Park Hae-jin

Plot: Straight-laced and emotionally numb rich-guy Shen An, a CEO of Shen Corporation, a food conglomerate, keeps having unlucky run-ins with Meng Chu Xia, a clumsy, soft-hearted but stubborn 28-year-old who’s raising her nephew Meng Xiang by herself. Park Hae-jin in (from My Love from the Star and Cheese in the Trap) plays the male lead, which will give you that Kdrama rom-com feeling. This drama has the same tone and similar structure as those archetypal K-rom-coms: Lots of funny, cute and screwball-ish parts in the first half of the series, while later episodes add emotional depth and drama. Plus an excellent ending.

What I Think + Spoilers: So after watching Cheese in the Trap, I followed Park Hae-jin to China. Haha! Chinese dramas tend to drag on, you have to get used to it I guess. I’ve only seen 3 so far but all of them, the female lead had amazing friends and showed what kind of friendship they have. Some scenes also dealt with struggles of single parenting. Got me thinking if I will also have the same problems in the future.

4747_cheeseinthetrap_nowplay_small1The feels. Sorry but I love both main and the second lead on this one. Jung’s looks against In Ho’s personality, I just can’t make a decision. LOL! Anyhow, it took me such a long time to get to watch this one coz there were a lot of negative comments about the ending and I’m not much for sad endings (Uncontrollably Fond is an exemption).

BWY4L4RNSXQB88MWBDJ5_1024x0Cheese in the Trap is from a webtoon of the same title. They’re also doing a movie this year but they’re replacing Eun Tak with another actress. Apparently, the webtoon is not done yet the writers had to improvise. Before I watched the whole thing, I cheated and skipped to the ending then I also looked up the webtoon. I wanted to make sure I will be okay with the ending before spending hours on it. So here’s what I think;
