Korean show
Friday, September 16th, 2005I m not a big fan of Korean shows bcoz i find they r very dragging n too super melodramatic, i can still remember a few years back during schooling times whenever i came back from school, my mom would b glued to th etv watching the korean show…inevitably, the actors in the show would b crying or dying from something, in fact i cannot remember an episode that the actors dun cry…the korean horror pulak is dammmmmm slow and not scary at all…but my perception towards korean shows have changed due to two superb shows that i watched recently….being bedridden a few weeks back, i turned into a couch potato n managed to catch a korean show titled Full House…its a damm funny romance show that is not too melodramatic n it helps that the actors r sooo good looking…the only gripe that i have about the show is that i find it is baffling that the lead actress decided to choose a guy who insults n scold her over a guy that is so understanding,another plus point is the understanding guy is very macho looking whereas the other guy is more towards the cutesy type(Bleergh). Another absolutely gem of the show n thus is aptly named is Jewel In The Palace. i got it on dvd and i was so glued to it that i manage to watch finish 60+ episode of it in less than 3 days. This show is definitely different in the sense that it doesn’t deals in lovey dovey(cept only towards the end) as u usually c in korean shows nowadays. The show is about the trials and tribulations that Jang Geum, the main character have to faced in becoming a female doctor that is recognised in the olden days of medieval Korea…as u delve deeper n deeper into the show u will find that u r rooting for her while eagerly waiting for the punishment that will befall her foes….fired up by these two great shows, i was fired up to mayb changed my perception toward Korea shows….but unfortunately, the show that i had watch "Sword in The Moon" is a dud…well i guess i could watch back Jewel back but in Mandarin version so that i can practice my Mandarin :P
