KDrama Diary

I watched this drama occasionally since the plot seems draggy. Thank god I was able to watch the last episode, which was last night ^^ Actually, the acting of each cast members is very good. Especially when they were young. I especially love young Keumshil and Kyungmin. They're such adorable kids *pinching young Keumshil's cheek*

The thing is, I don't quite fancy the theme of this drama. It's dark, definitely not my typical kind of drama ^^;; Maybe once at a time I should watch this kind of drama to balance my appetite for comedy romantic drama ^^

I can't believe Kyungsook still wants to marry Jongkyu even though he's handicap @_@ I feel pity for Bongku. Since young, he already has a crush for Kyungsook, too bad she only regards him as Oppa.

My prediction got all wrong when I thought that Kyungmin will end up with Keumshil, since Keumshil loves him since she were a little girl. It went against the mainstream. As far as I know, it's Korean Drama's stereotype to make step brother & step sister falls in love with each other, like in the drama Autumn in My Heart. Guess it's not applied in this drama ^^;;

As for Kyunggu & Hongyeon, I knew from the first time I watched this drama, they'll be end up together. But I'm surprised that Hongyeon need to marry a man which her father chose first. She ended up getting beaten and miscarriage her baby. After having to be hospitalized in the asylum, she gained her strength to move on and surprisingly, Kyunggu still loves her and they reunited in the end.

If you like to watch how a family bonding, surviving, and supporting each other through difficult times, The Golden Apple is highly recommended. I gave this drama 4 out of 5 stars ^^

Until episode 8, the Kim brothers & sisters still lives in the village. But in the preview of next episode, looks like they already moved into Seoul, and they have grown up. That means I get to see Kim Ji Hoon as the adult Gyeong Gu ^^ Please note that he's my main reason watching this drama ^^;;

Young Geumshil act very good in this episode. No wonder she got Best Teen Actress Award for her role in this drama. She plays crying scene very good for kids in her age. It makes us want to hug her and do anything to make her smile again ^^

The Golden Apple has 30 episodes long. So viewer, prepare your box of tissue since I guess more drama to come in future episodes. Just listening to the OST, we all know that this drama genre is the sad and melancolic one ^^;; Actually, I don't fancy this kind of drama very much. I prefer the light romantic comedy, but I guess one drama like this will balance my appetite for korean drama ^^

I'm a little dissappointed with Kim Ji Hoon look in this drama, but I guess I can't blame it, since his role is as a poor young man, not as an established handsome lawyer in his newest drama Love Marriage ^^;; From photo gallery in KBS site, I saw him with thin mustache T_T He's not look that good with it. Please shave it man T_T Enjoy his photo from KBS's site *he's on the left*, looks like he'd shaved it when the shooting done ^^;;

Due to lot of Korean Dramas that I've watched this week, I guess it'll be easier for me to put it in one post ^^;

The Queen Returns
Just like I predicted before, the story is so so. It's not making me excited when watching it. Instead, I got annoyed with the story line. I don't know. I'm just watching it cause I don't have any other option :P

Everybody Cha Cha Cha
Gaahh...this is what I hate about daily drama. The story keeps on dragging a lot. Gaahh...can't stand it >_< I admit I only watch this show just to see my dear oppa Oh Man Seok ^^;; Sobs...what one must endure to see him ^^;;
Currently, the story still revolving around all of characters *of course, it's a daily drama, everybody must be involved ^^;;*

• PD Min & PD Suhyeon relationship is getting closer
• YJ & The Cartoonist is getting engaged *finally*
  
• DJ is still jealous *I think* about YJ's engagement. She's still not giving her approval. But who care, she's not even YJ's parent :P
• Cheol is already figuring out that NY's father is actually JW's uncle.
• JK is pregnant, and Han isn't really ready for it. That's why he got scolded by his father :P
• JW & NY is back together, but still, there's no approval from NY's evil mom. Considering this is only eps 60 something, I bet they must be separated again :P

This show is already up to episode 94 in its origin country *South Korea* And guess what, JW & NY hasn't even been officially together >_<

My Fair Lady (Please Take Care of Young Lady / Lady Castle)
Yesterday is the final episode. And I can't believe the ending was just like that T_T I was hoping more romance etc but I didn't get it >_< I was kinda disappointed with the ending. They should have made it one episode longer. I wanted more scenes of Lee Taehyun and Uiju. They're such a cute couple ^o^
Guess after watching The Vineyard Man *which I'm strongly recommended to watch*, I'm hoping all other drama has a very nice end like The Vineyard Man had ^^;;

The Golden Apple
This is a new series started on Monday, 2 Nov 09 on KBS World. It looks promising, has 30 episodes, and the main reason I continue to watch it, is because Kim Ji Hoon is in this drama *fufufu* I started falling for him since I see him in Love Marriage. He's so damn handsome in there. Even my father is amazed by his charm when he wear a nice suit. Up til episode 4, he's not showing up yet. It's because he will play the adult Kyung Gu in this drama. Now the brothers and sisters of his family is in the child phase. Maybe next week they will turn into adult and I can get to see him ^^; About the story, so far it's kinda dark. But we'll see what will it become in the coming episodes ^^
