Korean drama addiction and Jap-gender bender final decisions~~~

So...I think I've watch most of this season's k-drama(well at least tried one episode of each drama)...and I have to say there are A LOT of really good dramas~~~so many till I'm speed watching them...gah!!!my eyes hurt~~~so here are some dramas of the season that is great~~~

1)Scent of a Woman


When I heard about the storyline...which included cancer,poor girl and a rich guy...I was like "oh crap another I LOVE YOU BUT I HAVE CANCER SO I"M GOING TO DIE SAD LOVE drama"...but it stared one of my favourite actress Kim Sun Ah (who won my heart over in 'KIM SAM SOON', one of my favourite kdrama of all time)...thus I gave a drama a shot~~~

And my oh my...It was really good...It was really fresh, the cinematography so stunning, really great acting AND the story is interesting...But YES,it does involve having the main gal of the story having cancer(nope it's not the plot-twist...but it's what starts the story...so ya,thats new in k-drama land)~~~and what I love about the drama is the growth of each characters..espeacially kim sun ah's character...me love love love:D

2)Myung Wol the Spy


ahhh...a Spy drama....which is NOT my cup of tea (I watch dramas to relax...not to get all tense up on all the seriousness of politics/action/really really big plot twist)....so I never intended to watch it...but when It was labeled under the genre 'comedy/romance'...I just tried it and yep...it's definitely COMEDY:D

It is light,fluffy,romantic with the occasional action and seriousness(well it is a spy drama...)..but it is a good balance...its just all plain fun and the story itself is not to be taken seriously anyways (you watch it and you will know how rediculous the story is set up to be)...but it WORKS!!! its a really fresh idea for a drama and is definitely interesting~~~

3)Heartstrings/ You've fallen for me



Yep..this drama has two titles...the first being it's official english title..and the 2nd being the translation from the korean title....so confusing~~~~

So its a youth romance melodrama...staring park shinhye and yonghwa of CN-blue...which i LOVED from "you're beautiful"...so naturally i HAD to watch this drama..

The 1st 2 episodes of the drama was really promising...there's not much plot in it and it's basicly about the daily lifes and growth of characters who are studying in a music college...really simple yet sweet~~~and the bickering of the 2 main characters are so hilarious....

But once it reached the 4th episode...I was like forwarding speed watching the drama...why??coz there is REALLY NO substance in the story...i could just skip 20minutes of the episode...and yet the story has no development at ALL...and the story was really not 'focused', it tends to jump from one place to another with no flow and NO relevance to the main core storyline at all...and the characters started to lose their uniqueness and became a mess (they establish the characters in ep1-3...but once it reached ep 4, they just suddenly became a diffrent character)...

I really wanted to drop this drama when i reached ep 6....but I just gave it a chance...and OH YEAH...it did improve!!!!ep 7 & 8 finally had that feel of youth and romance and melodrama...it still was a drag in some parts but it improved a lot!!!(it seems the writers for ep7/8 changed...thank god for that!!!)

Not really a 'MUST WATCH FREAKING 100 TIMES I LOVE THIS FREAKING DRAMA' kind of drama...but its enjoyable and really fun to watch (plus it really has a light plot, so my brain don't feel so heavy after watching it~~~~lalala)

Update on my last post about the japanese gender-bender drama...
1)Hana-kimi 2011 remake
* DROPPED-------sorry, I really can't stand it...It's just a really bad copy&paste version of the original...eventhough they changed it up abit...but still the change is not all that fun....:(

2) Ouran Highschool Host Club
*CONTINUE-----It is really fun and it does live up to it's manga/anime...really funny:D

3)Ikemen Desu Ne
*CONTINUE-----I really thought I was going to drop this drama..but I seem to enjoy it...well I do tend to skip over some parts because it was SOOOOO similar to the scenes from the Korean version....but aside from that...It is not that BAD of a remake...as the episodes goes...the characters and story are starting to be diffrent and actually quite enjoyable...surprisingly~~~I kinda like it:)

Add--->
4) IS~Otoko Demo Onna Demo Nai Sei~



So this is NOT a true gender-bender drama but the main actress does take on the role of both male and female....because in the drama, she/he is an IS (intersexual)...which means she/he was born with both male and female reproductive organs...thus having both male/female characteristics (but more to male...)

I love the actress Fukuda Saki...I think she takes on the character REALLY REALLY well...and compared to the other 3 actresses from the gender bender dramas...she is the MOST CONVINCING and pulls of being a male really well...

The drama is touching and it talks about IS (intersexual) which statisticly happens in 1 in 4000 births...which is alot but no drama so far has talked about this...so it's really interesting and does give us a look at how some with IS live with it.

Conclusion--->MUST WATCH
