Drama to the Max~

After over a two year break, I finally finished "My Girl"~ I seem to have a habit of starting a series, watch a couple of episode, leave it off when something would come up, and forget about it after a while…Being a Lee Jun Ki fan, I highly recommend everyone to watch it! Be prepared to have a box of tissues for the last 3 episodes~ It’s a comedy, slightly angst towards to end, but perfect ending! Absolutely wonderful OST~
"Joo Yoo Rin is an imposter, proficient in English, Chinese, and Japanese, while Seol Gong Chan is the second generation heir of a big corporation. Because of his grandfather's illness, he asks Yoo Rin to act as his long-lost cousin so that his grandfather's last wish can be fulfilled. So therefore, they are both bound in a lie that no-one in the family knows the truth of. Gong Chan's charming and intelligent ex-girlfriend, Kim Sae Hyun, dreams to become a world-famous tennis star with the nickname "Sharapova of Korea". She leaves Korea and her boyfriend Gong Chan to fulfill her dream. Upon returning to Korea after winning the title, she works hard at getting back with Gong Chan, thus causing both she and Yoo Rin to compete for Gong Chan's affection. To make matters more complicated, womanizer Seo Jeong Woo, who is Gong Chan's best friend, falls for Yoo Rin and finally learns to love that special someone despite being an "accomplished" playboy." - Wikipedia

Another example, I also finished "Hot Shot"…after a three months break. It’s supposed to be THE drama (Taiwan) of the year, but…although it was good, but the ending was so…not an ending~ Very powerful cast with SHOW Luo, Jerry Yan, and Wu Zun! I personally am not a very athletic person, so sports drama usually don’t interest me, but honestly with such a cast, it’s definitely worth it to check it out~ On that note: SHOW Luo’s new album “Trendy Man” came out today (includes songs from the drama) and is as good as always!
"In a school where academic reigns supreme and sports are relegated to a dusty corner of the campus, Li Ying vows to revive the basketball team by volunteering to be the head coach. Her first member is Yuan Da Ying, a country boy who is passionate for basketball but has no skill. Their recruitment goes into high gear when Dong Fang Xiang, a legendary basketball player, transfers to their school. Around the same time, Yuan Da Ying falls for Zhan Jie Er, a scholarship student who reminds him of his childhood friend. Things are complicated by the fact her family works for Dong Fang Xiang, who she also grew up with. Their encounter may just rewrite the school's basketball history." - Wikipedia

Yet another example, I finished the movie "Contract Lover" starring Fan Bing Bing yesterday~ And yet again, it’s a movie I started about a year ago ^^” The storyline is a little choppy (maybe it's because I missed 15 minutes of the movie), but a comedy that was meant to target mainland audience with a lot of "cultural" references~ Recommend it only if you’re in the mood for some martial arts meet pole dancing~ Result: Substitute Lover becomes real lover? Speaking of Fan Bing Bing, considering how popular she is these days, I'm surprised that this movie is the only other work of hers I have seen since My Fair Princess(还珠格格)~ And speaking of that, Ruby Lin is now a singer?
I should start Pi Li MIT soon~
