April:: KDrama Heaven :: Love Rain

If your not watching a currently airing kdrama this month you totally should be.. this month is JAMMED packed with amazing actors & story lines that you definitely don't want to miss.. I'm going to try and highlight a few I'm watching in my next couple of posts.


Love Rain

um... how can I not mention this one first! Its has my one true Korean love (aside from Lee Min Ho, T.O.P., Song Joong Ki, Kim Hyun Joong, Yonghwa.... uh - okay maybe not my only one) Jang Geun Suk & Girls Generation's [SNSD] Yoona.
 

Because I am such a devoted and loyal fan of Jang Geun Suk, I would have watched this drama till end no matter what, and after watching this first episode I thought I was going to have to suffer through it for my love.  Yet despite the rather slow, very moody start things picked up about episode 3. 

While the story starts off in the 70s (with very impressive sceneries & cinematography btw) about an artist's [Jang Geun Suk] love at first sight experience [w/Yoona]. It doesn't take long for things to become complicated when his best friend also falls for the same girl.

About episode 4 we are left wondering what happened to those heartbroken lovers and jilted to present day Korea where we meet their modern day counterparts..

Anyways that's where I left off and really can't tell you anymore since, well, I haven't watched it! I wouldn't say this drama is for everyone and you almost have to want to watch it for you to connect with the storyline. Still, I'm hooked and I want more.


Stay tuned for my thoughts on Fashion King, Rooftop Prince, & King 2 Hearts!

GIrls Generation in the US

Did any of you watch Girls Generation [SNSD] on David Letterman or Live with Kelly?? I watched both and couldn't help but be excited for them.  While I am by no means their biggest fan I couldn't help but wanting America to fall in love with them.

While I really liked their performance on Letterman, I couldn't help but feel kinda sorry for them since they were guests on the show the same night as Bill Murray & Regis Philbin. uh seriously? Like how awesome would it have been if the other guests on the show were under the age of 60!!! I really feel like they got that shaft and maybe could have made some better contacts if the guests were ANYONE ELSE but at least they rocked the performance.

As for Live with Kelly, personally, I didn't like the performance as much as Letterman. Even their outfits weren't as hot but whatever. I still love them. It was cute when Kelly got to ask them about how long they had been performing in such but it left me wanting MORE.

Honestly I thought they should have forgone the whole performance and had a full on interview with Kelly. While I think Jessica & Tiffany are the only ones who know English well enough to have an interview it still would have been fun and I'm sure would gave had a lot of giggling.



Here's to hoping that the next time they are on American television someone will let them actually talk because we are all anxious to hear what these girls have to say.
