Remake of My Sassy Girl in Joseon Dynasty.

The starting of SBS new periodic drama My Sassy Girl has caught slight attention whereby it was intriguing which the King Hwijong is forced to dethrone his beloved Queen. His evil corrupted court ministers esp Minister Jung took over and controlled the royal palace. They even made the evil consort Sukwon into Queen Park. 

Princess Hye Myung played by Oh Yeon Seo struggles to live a happy life behind the palace doors after her mother was dethroned and left them. For 3 years she has been climbing over the palace walls to explore the outside world. Meanwhile the handsome and intelligent scholar Gyun Woo played by Joo Won returns from Qing country. He is valued by the China's Emperor and also named as 'nation's treasure' by King Hwijong. 

In such a coincidence Gyun Woo helps Hye Myung but she has mistaken him as a pervert. After a short brawl, he is persistent to clear his name for he thought she was a gold digger. He kept looking for her but doesn't know her real identity. Hye Myung lost her jade ring and thinks Gyun Woo is the thief.

Even with heavy make-up, the dark circles were surrounding Oh Yeon Seo's eye bags. She

doesn't look anything as a 17-year old Princess. Hah! To my surprise Joo Won could still pull the trick as a young scholar in his early 20s. CN Blue's Jong Shin is indeed an eye candy as Officer Kang Jun Young in the palace. I am a bit doubting on Oh Yeon Seo's character as the rough and mean sassy girl (as what we see in the movie portrayed by Jeon Ji Hyun).
Joo Won still takes the same original name Gyun Woo as in the movie played by Cha Tae Hyun. 

The first episode of My Sassy Girl raked in 9.3% in viewers ratings. KBS2TV's Third Rate of Way scored 10.7% while MBC's The Guardians was at 6.6%.  

Jo In Sung turns up at 500th episode of Happy Together program.

It is not something that everyday as audience we can see big celebrities turning up in a variety program. Majority K-pop idols and sing-song writers are mostly what we see in music shows and variety programs. This time for the 500th episode special event for Happy Together Season 3, A-list actor Jo In Sung turns up unexpectedly creating chaos in the production team. In Sung has once made the viewers ratings sky rocketed when he coincidentally joined his senior actor Cha Tae Hyun in 1 Night 2 Days program. He also made a cameo appearance in Running Man. In fact he's rarely seen in variety shows since he admitted he was very bad in playing games.

However everyone is eager to see Jo In Sung in variety programs due to his handsome looks and great acting skills. Emcees Ji Suk Jin and Yoo Jae Suk asked if he could ring up his close mates such as Song Joong Ki and Park Bo Gum to come along for the episode.
Indeed In Sung started calling both of his friends. Joong Ki doesn't seem to be convinced when he wondered why Suk Jin's voice was wavering away. Jae Suk called Lee Hyo Ri and she guessed incorrectly that In Sung's voice was Bo Gum! Hah! 

When asked what did he think of co-emcee actress Hyun Kyung, In Sung replied she is pretty causing her to blush away. After all when one of the most handsome actors in South Korea tells you are pretty- of course the actress is bound to start faltering away. Hah!

Tune in to see who are the guests who will turn up at the special episode. 

300 cups of coffee promise for Circle drama if ratings hit 3%.

Yoo Seung Ho transforms in Ruler of the Mask.

In the recent episodes of Ruler of the Mask drama, main lead Yoo Seung Ho who plays the real Crown Prince Lee Sun has left the palace life to investigate further on the mysterious truth of Pyungsoo Group trying to rule the Joseon dynasty.

Five years after the death of his parents, the Crown Prince and his bodyguard Chong Woon ventured into the paddlers organisation while working their way through to earn trusts and loyalty from the traders. Indeed it proved their fruit of success as the Crown Prince becomes the Chief of Paddler. When he saves Lady Ga Eun again from the annoying Pyungsoo baddies, she wonders why he denies he isn't Master Chun Soo whom she met many years back. She misses him terribly however he has a mission to carry out without revealing his true identity. Currently the Crown Prince is not donning on royal robes or his mask, he is often seen in different hair style and wardrobes.


Once again he meets Hwa Gun- the evil Dae Mok's grand daughter who now controls the port trading merchant businesses. She is fluent in Japanese and trades with foreign investors. Hwa Gun is excitedly happy to know the Crown Prince is alive but living as a new identity. Crown Prince doesn't know that Hwa Gun belongs to Pyungsoo Group. 

As for commoner Lee Sun, poor him living in the palace for the past 5 years was like hell. He had to rely on an antidote from Dae Mok who controls him if he does anything against his wishes. He misses his family so much with his loyal guard informing him about his mother doing business with a little sister.Viewers are brought to the attention that living in the palace was no fun compared to being starving as a poor man. Especially been controlled by a devil like Dae Mok who is the master mind behind the Bureau of Water Supply and now he intends to print more coins- to control the economy.

INFINITE's L has done a fine job as the impostor of the King. Meanwhile Yoo Seung Ho is a super eye candy and as usual his great acting skills portrayed well he has matured from a childish Crown Prince to someone where everyone follows and looks up to.
As for Kim So Hyun and Yoon So Hee's characters- they have yet to develop further. 
There is some comic relief from Master Woo Bo whom often indulges in rice wine along with the small officer who is now head over heels of the gisaeng. Haha!

Thoughts on Third Rate-My Way drama.

KBS2 has slot in its latest Mon-Tue weeknight drama entitled Third Rate My Way 쌈 마이웨이 which features Park Seo Joon, Kim Ji Won, Ahn Jae Hong and Song Ha Yun. Well everyone knows Park Seo Joon's most recent pre-production sageuk drama as Kim Sun Woo in Hwarang: The Beginning under KBS. Kim Ji Won's popularity soared from The Heirs to Descendants of the Sun- also under KBS pre-production. Ahn Jae Hong is one loveable character from tVN's Reply 1988 and Youth Over Flowers program. As for Song Ha Yun, she was seen recently in the SBS drama Band of Sisters. 

Third Rate My Way revolves around 4 happy go lucky friends who knew each other since they were kids to adults. They are better known as Fantastic Four Idiots. Park plays as Goo Dong Man- a former Taekwondo elite player who dropped out after an incident. Kim plays as concierge desk Ae Ra who finds herself in trouble when her boyfriend cheated on her. Ahn plays the genius of the group, Joo Man as he's a buyer in the home shopping channel while Song plays his girlfriend Seol Hee who also works as a customer service rep in the same office.

Dong Ma's first crush Hye Ran is a beautiful announcer but has recently divorced. He finds himself isolated because of his status and image. His former coach Hwang played by Kim Sung Oh is ridiculously funny and tries to get him back to train as part of the national team.
And of course we are treated to few cameo appearances in the drama such as Ji Jin Hee, Choi Woo Shik and Kwak Dong Yeon. 

It's quite a light hearted romantic comedy involving the immature friendship of Dong Man and Ae Ra who are often at loggerheads but they helped each other out when one is in despair. Not too impatient to drop off this drama but will see how it goes...I won't say it's overly fantastic or interesting but it's a good way to pass your time especially at night after work or a drink. Hah! 

A step closer to the truth in Chicago Typewriter.

tVN has certainly drawn the viewers to the current airing drama Chicago Typewriter where the story based on two different centuries. First was the three good friends Shin Yul, Seo Hwi Young and So Hyun in the Japanese occupation century. Second set was the three of them were reincarnated and reunited again in the modern era in Seoul - except Shin Yul is now a floating ghost trying to find the memories of how he died and remain mysteriously locked in the olden days typewriter which Hwi Young used for writing novels.

Now in present era star writer Han Se Ju played by Yoo Ah In is confused and also with the help of the ghost Yoo Ji Oh - played by Go Kyung Pyo is trying to reveal the truth why current veteran Jeon Seol played by Im Se Jung is afraid of shooting. She was a great national team shooter and previously a sniper in the past life. Somehow she was manipulated and also has shot someone dead. It was either Shin Yul or Hwi Young she has shot in the past life! And viewers were brought to to know that Seol's mother- Sophia also reincarnated was a prime suspect to the lead of Yul's death. He is also suspicious over Se Ju's former room mate and friend writer Baek Tae Min- played by Kwak Shi Yang. 

And as far as I know, I'm loving Yoo Ah In's hairstyle and styling fashion in the 1930's life as Seo Hwi Young. He's mysterious, carries a playboy style and is a team lead of the revolution team which So Hyun doesn't know he was his saviour in life. Shin Yul is just adorable as his bestie and remains bestie in the next life as both men adored So Hyun from the past to the current life.

The modern Han Se Ju is hot tempered, cold at start and sometimes soft inside when he is haunted by the trauma he stayed with his foster family especially his evil step-mother who tried to ruin his career while protecting Tae Min like a golden egg!
Of course we can never forget how feasible and cute the floating ghost Yoo who tries all kinds of ways to possess animals and even to humans as he wants a chance for Jeon Seol to see him in this current life. He is a witty ghost and yet warm heart as he has always been a helping friend to Hwi Young and So Hyun in the past life.
And will Jeon Seol ever find out who she has shot in the past life and recover from that trauma? 

Looks like Yoo Ah In has been destined to film some dramas together with few veteran actors such as Cheon Ho Jin who plays his current adopted father/mentor Baek Do Ha. Actor Cheon also played as Yoo Ah In's father in the drama Six Flying Dragons.

Doota Duty Free celebrates party with Song Joong Ki.

It is not the duty free shopping people go frenzy about. It's actually Doota Duty Free's main advertising model/actor Song Joong Ki that drives the fan meetings.

Roy Kim's comeback after 18 months.

Singer Roy Kim (25, Kim Sang Woo) is due to came back with a new album after in hiatus for 18 months. His mini album entitled 'Flowering period 開花期'.

This album's main song title is' Suddenly'. This song is about missing the old lover who suddenly emerges after a long farewell. Roy Kim has written and composed the title song. In addition to this, 'Counterattack', 'Because you're pretty', 'But you...', 'Imagination' 'and 'Heaven' are also in this album.

Roy Kim said, "The 'flowering period' means the time when flowers are blooming or when they are golden in the history of the country. I also have a wish for it. "Roy Kim's new album is a tangible look folk song singer as he is trying to change the perception is seen. 

First the change of appearance. He has dyed his hair colour to blond with bangs in the front. There is also a change in music. In addition to the ballads, there are also fast tempo songs that have never been released before.

Ji Chang Wook's transformation in Suspicious Partner.

SBS drama special 'Suspicious Partner' has revealed the searching of murder scene on 11th May episode broadcast. The drama plot opens with a judicial trainee Eun Bong Hee (played by Nam Ji Hyun) is one terrifying person who is not only rough on the inside and out. After discovering her boyfriend Hee Jun (played by 2PM's Chan Sung) has cheated on her, she decides to ditch him aside and make him jealous. 

She meets the merciless Prosecutor Noh Ji Wook (played by Ji Chang Wook) who was once framed for harassing her on the subway. Ji Wook is not only capable in his work and intelligent but he has the good looks as well. When Bong Hee has to undergo 2 months internship in the Prosecutor's office under Ji Wook, she finds him quite annoying at times but he stood up for her when Hee Jun was around with his new girlfriend. She swore at Hee Jun mentioning she'd kill him for what he has done to her.

Suddenly overnight Bong Hee turned into a murder suspect when Hee Jun was killed in her apartment. Ji Wook was in charge of the case and is determined to press charges onto her. He also needs to investigate the mysterious case which holds the key to Bong Hee's fate.
The drama also co-stars Choi Tae Joon and Kwon Na Ra.

Unlike all previous action-packed dramas, Ji Chang Wook's role has certainly changed from an agent/spy into a prosecutor-office role. It has barely any action scenes that he needs to jump or fly around which he has mentioned a good change for once.

Ruler of Mask starts off with 2 digit ratings.

MBC's latest sageuk period drama Ruler of Mask 군주-가면의 주인 has a little breakthrough of 2 digit ratings for first two episodes. Around the Seoul Metropolitan area, it has recorded 10.5% to 12.1% ratings. The period drama has a line of wonderful casts such as Yoo Seung Ho, Kim So Hyun, INFINITE's L and Yoon So Hee. Other veteran casts include Heo Jun Ho, Park Chul Min, Lee Ki Young and Uhm Hyo Sub.
It starts off during the Joseon dynasty period whereby the current King is being controlled by the powerful and evil Pyungsoo group who controls the master trade of poppies and even water in the country. The leader Dae Mok is preparing to invite the Crown Prince Lee Sun (Yoo Seung Ho) to join their group- in lay man terms- become the puppet of the country. Dae Mok sends his granddaughter Hwa Gun (Yoon So Hee) to the palace as a spy and she had her first encounter with the Crown Prince seeing his real face. 

Nobody has ever seen the Crown Prince's face as the King ensures he wears a mask. Whoever sees the Prince's face will be killed, the rumour says it all the heir to the throne has leprosy and nobody knows why and what happened. Poor Lee Sun endures all the humiliation and kept in a secret greenhouse without any communication with anyone except his close eunuch. He has no idea why his father is making him wear the mask all these years because to protect his identity and life.

Dae Mok is suspicious about the Crown Prince's real identity and sends his spies to monitor the Palace's movements. The King was furious that the Crown Prince has escaped from the Royal Ancestors Shrine and disguised himself as a commoner.

For past 14 over years, the very first time Lee Sun walks freely among the commoners in the market witnessing happiness, laughter, girls smiling at him and even sufferings among the poor people. He tries to give a poor child some water to drink only to discover that the Bureau of Water Supply is mean and having citizens to pay for a bucket of water. The Crown Prince also meets the commoner Lee Sun during the water supply riots. 

Thanks to Dae Mok's group and they were chasing over the Crown Prince. He ran for his life and stumbled across the pretty Han Ga Eun. He tumbled across the market only for her to held him up - a twist when usually the hero saves the damsel in distress. Hah!

And what we will be expecting is the real Crown Prince swaps his position with the commoner Lee Sun to investigate the Pyungsoo group. And will the commoner Lee Sun grows greedy after taking up the fake identity....? 

The many faces of Park Hae Jin in Man to Man drama.

As where we as viewers were treated to all eye candy in typical K-dramas, JTBC is slightly different in sending Park Hae Jin as Ghost Agent K (Kim Seul Woo) in their latest spy-thriller romantic comedy drama. With his model height, sleek and slim looks, Park Hae Jin has demonstrated his bodyguard and agent skills in the drama. Of course we look forward with his bromance with his VIP actor Yeo Un Gwang played by Park Sun Woong who brings out the comical parts too. 

 

With romance on the roll of Manager Cha Do Ha falling hard for Agent K, little does she know he is just using her for his mission- well in a cold cruel way as usual. Remember he blew up the car in overseas to fake his own death leaving the foreign girl in despair? Well it's one of the tactics a skilled and spy needs to do in order to carry out their mission successfully. 

Park Hae Jin has shown his very different poker faces in the series that lit up the screen whenever he smiles, nods or carries out his mission coolly. His suave tactics manages to make the women swoon and wonder what's he about to do next.

I must say the scriptwriters have given Park Hae Jin a similar James Bond role which charms the ladies at first sight and even his lines were cheesy which makes your heart skip a beat. However how far will Ghost Agent K go to complete his current mission and is he willing to blow off his identity to save Cha Do Ha's life - which means is this a true feeling he's having for her?

Misunderstandings cleared in Liar and his Lover.

Episode 14 of Liar and his Lover displays so many problems were partly solved from the band members of Crude Play to couple misunderstandings.

First of all- the supporting couple which has captured most netizens and viewers attention was Crude Play leader and vocalist Si-Hyun (UNIQ's Sungjoo) and his senior at work So Yeon. All the years So Yeon thought Si Hyun has ignored her confession and feelings. And all the time Si Hyun was confused whether how to make her love him. At last they knew it was because of the note she left in his jacket and it was lost. So they never knew each others' feelings until he asked her. And we were all treated with a kiss for the cutie couple. Hands up for Si-Hyun...YAY!

And drummer In-Ho suppressed his feelings well to the extent he even took the most drastic measures to cancel the live performance. He was afraid to ruin Crude Play band image that they were not playing the instruments all these years. Han Gyeol found out In Ho has been patient, considerate for his band members that he was taking sleep inducers. Poor fella!

Sole Music Entertainment is going down the drain as Chairman Yoo is taking over and slowly convincing the artists to go over to WHO Entertainment. Mr. Choi is slowly losing his position and failing to grab onto his artists. Chairman Yoo wants to pull over only the talented artists and trying to disband Mush & Co. Jin Woo and Kyu Sun realised they were not needed in the company. Poor Jin Woo who likes So-Rim all these years have to put aside his feelings as she confessed that she only likes Han Gyeol. 

Han Gyeol is all guilt ridden knowing In Ho is trying hard to protect the image and future of Crude Play. However he doesn't know that his tough and over protective ways for the members have caused them more problems. Mr. Choi insists that Chan Young should take over and protect Mush & Co from being disband. 

What will happen to Crude Play, and the rest if Sole Music is taken over by WHO Ent.? Chairman Yoo who has the heart of steel is determined to change everything. 
And oh! I must say the heroine in this drama is somehow fast fading... I don't know what So-Rim is doing as all the attention has been shifted to Crude Play and Sole Music Ent.

Lifetime Achievement Award- late Kim Young Ae

Crude Play members' truth exposed in Liar and his Lover.

The recent episode of Liar and his Lover has shown us the reality of musicians and k-pop idols in the music industry. First Mr. Choi has ruined all the chances for Crude Play members as he rushed Mush & Co group to sing Han Gyeol's new single. News and media speculated that bassist Chan Young is leaving the group due to his last minute pull out from the Music Sketchbook performance.

As usual the 'too simple' and kind-hearted So Rim brought Chan Young back to her home to console him after hearing his sadness. I don't know where to applaud her kindness or she's being too naive. Anyway I am not fond of her character, however the story starts to unfold that Chan Young requests for a break from Crude Play thinking Han Gyeol has returned back to his original place. 

Netizens and fans were annoyed to the fact thinking So Rim is a two-timer between ChanYoung and Han Gyeol. Sole Music company gets busted with wall graffiti by fans cursing So Rim for ruining the band. Chan Young tells her it's not her fault he's taking a break from the band. Thumbs up for Si-Hyun who doesn't care on YoonA being a senior, he tells her to stop bothering Han Gyeol and got on her nerves that she's just being pathetic. Rumours start to circulate until to Chairman Yoo as she is pissed off knowing Crude Play is going down the drain with the leaked videos. Media are pushing for the truth and answers. 

Chairman Yoo tells Mr. Choi that Crude Play will play live performance for the press conference. The band members are anxious that the truth about them having proxy musicians will hurt their image and fans. Yoon thinks they should not be covering up however his idea was shot down ever since their first debut. They knew they couldn't back down except to keep covering. Soon Chan Young realizes that the members did use his bass music in the real videos posted online. All the time he has misunderstood thinking the members have never accepted him in the band. 

Performing live in front of the press was a piece of cake for Chan Young but not for drummer In Ho. He fidgets all day long worrying about the press. Finally Si-Hyun apologises for his mean ways towards Chan Young when they first debut. Han Gyeol felt helpless as he can't do anything for his friends. 

In this episode we see all misunderstandings were cleared among Crude Play members.
I couldn't care less about Mush & Co or So-Rim as she doesn't seem to stand out much lately compared to the real truth about Crude Play band. Her voice is only what they wanted and her silly behaviour- she is just plain boring. In Ho gets in a car accident to delay the press conference and live performance. Is this the final destination for Crude Play band?
What is going to happen further with them? Well....I certainly can't wait to see as we can see Chan Young has matured so much in this episode.
