Drama of the Week: Lie To Me

SBS's romance masterpiece: Lie To Me.
I've introduced this drama to some of my friends who are not Korean-oriented and yet they still loved it. The scenes and scenarios are not overly exaggerated as I'm used to seeing in Korean Dramas, and is more down to earth. Gong Ah Jung, the female main character, was not a useless girl that depends on a guy. Throughout the whole drama she was a strong character that prided herself on accomplishments from her own efforts (it made me respect the character).   The male lead, Hyun Ki Joon, was as described: handsome, well-mannered, rich, responsible, and cultured. Though he was strict, demanding, liked to boss people around, he has a heart mode out of cotton. Well not that soft, but he was a romantic man and could melt any woman's heart in a blink. Over all I enjoyed watching this drama a little too much. It made me cry, laugh (more like rofl), smile, sigh, and clench my fists. This is a must-see drama, and I'd recommend it to anyone at any given second!

I'd also like to mention to of the songs from the OST that impressed me.
The first one is As One & EZ-Life's "Lovin Ice Cream," the second is MBLAQ's "I Belong to You."

Best K-POP Songs Ever - Tier 4

#7-8


7. Jang Jae In - Please (Athena OST)

For those who have seen the drama, this song expressed the feelings of a past lover for the main character. Each time the song came up, I was moved to tears for this couple. The song naturally conveys to the listener that this song has a strong sense of regret, and bitterness. As the song progresses the vocals show the strong feelings this person is going through. Overall this song really is extraordinary in the sense of expressing the emotions.

8. Super Junior & SNSD - Seoul

S.M. Entertainment overdid themselves with this song. The theme is simple: "Love your city, Seoul." It is such a peaceful and adorable song. After listening to this song, it makes me want to visit the many wonders that are awaiting to be discovered in this city. Consider this melody a warm welcome from South Koreans into the heart of their country: Seoul.

Kara's Hara and B2ST's Junhyung - DATING !!!

Cube Entertainment and DSP Media have confirmed that Goo Hara (21) and Junhyung (23) are in a relationship.

Okay, so I got a shock just moments ago when I went on allkpop and read about, Junhyung and Hara dating. I'm actually really happy for those two. It takes a lot of bravery or a lot of love to come out like that, in an industry where the love of the fans makes you or kills you.


For our purposes we will call the new couple JunHara !!!

Drama of the Week: City Hunter


Okay, so at first I wasn't very interested in the new drama "City Hunter" even though Lee Minho is in it, but since it is Minho, I decided to give it a try.

Was it worth it?

HECK YEAH!

From the beginning of the first episode I already felt the rush from all the action happening. Lee Minho does the stunts and, wow, he really surprised me his awesome butt-kicking skills(apart from his good looks, but that shouldn't be important here, right?).

The drama starts off insanely good and as the first episode goes by the adrenaline rush doesn't disappear! The whole cast of the drama portrays their roles to a perfect "T" and make you intrigued at the development of their characters as the drama will progress. Not only is the cast fantastic, but the soundtrack is seriously EPIC. The soundtrack reminds me of IRIS so much and fits the tone and mood of the drama.

The drama has started off on the right foot and leaves anticipation for the rest of the episodes. If you still haven't started watching it and are interested, don't hesitate! There really was no trailer so here is a little preview i found:
