Korean Drama: You Who Came From Another Star Episode 21 Finale

And so, we are in the stage where we have to say goodbye, at least for Do Min Joon and Cheon Song Yi.

This is one of the dramas that totally broke my heart. I'm crying I as I am writing this. AHHHH!!! It has long been part of my list of favorite dramas of all times and will always be one of the top favorites. The drama keeps you laughing every episode and also makes you cry as hard as you laughed. 

Well, just a brief summary. As expected, Do Min Joon really left. Although, Cheon Song Yi already know that he is leaving, but she was not expecting him to leave so soon. They were in the balcony wishing on the meteors. He was telling her what to do when he is gone (never wear clothes that expose too much skin since it is cold, no kiss or back hug scenes and no melodrama, she should not cry or be hurt alone while he is gone, and never to find which star he went to because he will be the one looking out for her everyday) and both were crying but Cheon Song Yi did not face him. She asked how she cannot do what he wants her to do. Do Min Joon did not answer back and when she turned, he was gone. saddest part of the drama ever!!! She was not able to say her farewell.

Korean Drama: Bride of the Century 2014

I just discovered this drama. I am watching it because of Hong Ki. LOL  I haven't really had any previews or reviews on this new drama. I just saw this drama just uploaded in Gooddrama and when I saw it was Hong Ki, it immediately caught my attention. LOL


The Taeyang Corporation is the largest conglomerate in South Korea. The family that runs Taeyang has been under a curse for 100 years. The curse began when the first bride of the family's first son died. Under this situation, a love like fairy tale occurs while conspiracies run rampant. See AsianWiki

Drama: Bride of the Century (literal title)
Revised romanization: Baeknyeonui Shinboo
Hangul: 백년의 신부
Director: Yun Sang-Ho
Writer: Baek Young-Sook
Network: CSTV
Episodes: 20
Release Date: February 22 - April 27, 2014
Runtime: Saturdays & Sundays 20:00
Language: Korean
Country: South Korea

Cast
Yang Jin Sung as Na Doo Rim (25) / Jang Yi Kyung (25)
Lee Hong Ki as Choi Kang Joo (29)

The only drama I saw with Hong Ki on it is with You're beautiful. He was funny then. I did see him on the reality show We Got Married, where he was paired with Fuji Mina, a Japanese actress. He was also funny but a little cold towards Mina. But I was touched when he made a stage in the parking area his farewell performance to Mina. It was so sweet.

Going back to this drama, I see he dyed his hair black again. I am used to seeing him with blonde hair. He looks more handsome with black hair. He sings really well and I am guessing the drama's OST  will probably come from his band, FT Island and I know it's going to be a hit, for the OST alone. Let's see. ^_^

Korean Drama: You Who Came From Another Star (Anticipation)

 THe finale of SBS You Who Came From Another Star  is just 4 more days from now. I can't wait to see how it will end. What will happen to Doo Min Joon? Will he stay or will he go back to where he came from?


Earlier, I have written a post about how I see the end of this drama. See it here.  Things that actually happened are the following:
  •  Jae Kyung's wife confessed to how he locked her up for 7 years.
  • Jae Kyung will not die in Do Min Joon's hands but is setup by his own brother and arrested for all his crimes. 
  • Lawyer Jang is safe from all that is happening. He is very supportive of Do Min Joon.
  • Cheon Song Yi will be popular again. Since Jae Kyung is found guilty of the death of Han Yoo Ra, Cheon Sing Yi's name is cleared and Representative Ahn wants her back. This is more probably because of their disappearance while the crowd is watching them at the hospital.

Upcoming Korean Drama: 3 Days (2014)

SBS's You Who Came From Another Star is set to end on the last Thrusday of February, that is February 27. Proceeding after it will be a new drama, 3 days,  which Park Yoo Chun will lead. I loved YooChun from Sungkyunkwan and Rooftop Prince because he was so hilarious but did not like really like him in I Miss You that much. This will be a serious character for him as he plays a presidential bodyguard.

The South Korean President travels to a villa to enjoy his vacation. After three gunshots are fired, he disappears. His bodyguard Han Tae-Kyung (Park Yoo-Chun) attempts to find the President. (Source: AsianWiki)

Drama: 3 Days / Three Days
Revised romanization: Sseurideizeu

Director: Shin Kyung-Soo
Writer: Kim Eun-Hee
Network: SBS
Episodes: 16
Release Date: March 5 - April 24, 2014
Runtime: Wed. & Thu. 21:55

From the title itself, I wonder if it has the same concept as 24 where a lot of thing happen in just 24 hours. Looking forward to this drama. I hope to see his funny side in this drama.

Korean Drama: Emergency Couple 2014

I first knew of Choi Jin Hyuk as Kim Won in The Heirs. I loved his stiff and cold character then. Now that he stars in Emergency Couple, where he plays Oh Chang Min, an arrogant divorcee who does everything to get rid of his ex-wife, Oh Jin Hee played by Song Ji Hyo, as they work together as interns in a hospital. Let us see how these two will work in the ER with thier conflicting interest and hate towards each other.
Title: 응급남녀 / Eunggeubnamnyeo
Also known as: Emergency Man and Woman / 119 Couple
Genre: Romance, comedy, family, medical
Episodes: 20
Broadcast network: tvN
Broadcast period: 2014-Jan-24 to 2014-???-??
Air time: Friday & Saturday 20:40



Cast:
Song Ji Hyo as Oh Jin Hee (33, intern)
Choi Jin Hyuk as Oh Chang Min (30, intern)
Lee Pil Mo as Gook Chun Soo (35, chief of Department of Emergency Medicine)
Choi Yeo Jin as Shim Ji Hye (35, assistant professor of surgery)
Clara as Han Ah Reum (26, intern)

We see a more playful side of Jun Hyuk here. I laughed on the first 2 episodes of the drama especially on the parts where they have to work and see each other. As I am fairly new to Korean Drama, Song Ji Hyo is a new face to me. Lets see how these two will get along the ER.
