What I Think:

This is one of the few series that I liked watching and I just do not know why. I just love Jerry Yan! It has been years since I last saw him act in Meteor Garden! Now he is back with a new series with Taiwan¡¯s lovable tomboy, Ella Chen. One thing that I like about Jerry Yan is he is so professional, never have I seen him in news that he is in a relationship with his co-star just to promote a series or movie. His reputation is untainted shall I say. I saw how he grew in terms of acting in this series. He looks so loveable but I kind of get pissed at how he treats Ella in the series.

 

Ella Chen ¨C wow I so am not a fan of her because she looks like and acts like a tomboy, Hana Kimi with her in it was such a pain to watch for me ( I was partial to teh Japanese version hehe!). But seeing her in this series, was a refreshing start for me, she sounded and acted different. I liked her in here. She was hilarious, funny, and any adjective you want to describe her! Ella is good when she is funny. I have to say, Ella grows on me, she gets endearing really in this series...she gets better with every new episode.

 

The whole story line of the series is so downright funny! I have always liked Jerry when he is serious and brooding but man! I have to say I liked him better when he is getting down to tickling my funny bones! And he sealed the funny performances with his refreshing and ubber hilarious chemistry with Ella Chen!

The kids are so cute cute cute! I just love them both! They make such a cute family! I think Jerry will be a wonderful father someday, he is great with the kids behind the scene.

When you want to watch something that will make you feel funny and good on a Saturday night, do get your hands on this series and you will be floored with Ella¡¯s antics and Jerry¡¯s yummyness!

SHINee’s Jong Hyun, actress Shin confirmed to be dating

I feel sorry for biggie Shinee and Jong Hyun fans, it is puzzling and heartbreaking to get a news like this but come on our Jong Hyun needs a life. 

I actually like Shin se kyung. She played the other girl in My Little Bride and played lead actress in the horror film “Cinderella”.

 

Shin Se Kyung and Jong Hyun from SHINee are dating!

It has been confirmed that Shin Se Kyung (21) and Jong Hyun from SHINee (21) are dating. Photos which SportsSeoul.com took of the couple, makes them look like an ordinary couple.

Shin Se Kyung and Jong Hyun have been dating usually in SamSungDong. Even though both are very busy with their schedules, whenever they had time, they met up and spent some time together. Usually it was Jong Hyun visitng Shin Se Kyung and them taking a walk together.

They also admitted that they cannot meet frequently and Jong Hyun tries to avoid his fan’s eyes and they meet at night. They also said that all they do is take walks around the house or at the park.

Even after 20days of spotting them together, all they do is take walks. One day when Shin Se Kyung had a conference for the new movie “Acoustic”, Jong Hyun met her outside her house as she was just returning.

These two have become closer thanks to their common interest in music. For the 20 days they have been listening to music as they walked. Jong Hyun shared an earphone together and enjoyed a moment with just two of them together.

Someone who knows this couple well said “Not only they are the same age, their hobbies are really similar. This helped them become close in a short period of time.”

Since they cannot meet frequently due to schedules, they send text messages to each other frequently.

He also said “They are both busy with our new albums and works. In addition, Jong Hyun is living with his SHINee members. He cannot afford to spend too much time with her. They call each other often”

Shin Se Kyung and Jong Hyun first met last May in a concert. After that, they met coincidentally and became friends, and recently became couples. Both companies of Shin Se Kyung and Jong Hyun announced that, “This is just the beginning for them. They have really good feelings for each other” and confirmed that they are dating

Shin Se Kyung:

 

Shinee's Jong Hyun: I really like Jong Hyun among the Shinee memebers but funny thing is I cannot find decent handsome pics of him on the internet..

What I Think:

Basically this is a love story of an older guy (30 years old) liking a younger girl (18yo) and another story of a younger guy (22yo) liking an older girl (29yo).This movie is a romantic one tackling the relationships of the 4 lead stars.

 

Yoo Ji Tae – he is the guy from Ditto! I think that movie is like the first Korean movie I have ever seen that is why I cannot seem to forget the actor’s faces. When I saw Yoo Ji Tae I was like he looks familiar, he is the Ditto guy!! And why the smokes is he playing a student? He looks too old to be a student! But no, he is not a student in this movie, he is a working guy and yes he still delivers superb acting here.

 

Kang In – this would be the first movie I have ever seen with him in it. He is funny I have to say. He looks so cute when the girl pointed out that his shirt is so childish and so cute! There is not much scenes where Kang In could showcase his acting talents...he was just basically just walking, following the girl and talking with Yoo Ji Tae, but he was okay. I can feel Super Junior fans now throwing slushes at me! Please don't.

 

 

The background song is so addictively cute! The background music, mood and the cinematography all play well in this movie. There was one moment where I was laughing because I think that scene was funny! When Han Soo-yeong and Kwon Ha-kyeong each bought two umbrellas and they haggled with the seller to give them a discount since they were buying four! Volt in!

Another fave scene was when Kwon Yeon-woo sprayed fake snow flakes outside Han Soo-yeong’s window because she likes the snow and taking pictures.

So yeah I kind of like this movie because it is not your ususal Korean rom-com which makes you cry, they one is a light hearted rom-com, it is different in a way.

The soundtrack is something though I gotta love these!

What I Think:

These Hallyu singers just debut in such a big way don’t they? First TOP then now, Jaejoong. This movie is like the Korean version of Ghost Whisperer-slash-City of Angels. But with a twist! I love the twist to it! The story has a different feel to it because even it has Korean actors and directors in it, the screenwriter is Japanese, Eriko Kitagawa...it feels like manga-ish and surreal, she is also the writer for the Drama “Beautiful Life” which starred Takuya Kimura.

 

Jae Joon – funny how his real and reel name match! Almost the same. He looks absolutely eye candy when he wore his eye glasses! He is like the hottest postman alive! I could just imagine the biggie Hero fans when they saw the kissing scene, yes people they got a kissing scene here, ommo ommo fans would throw imaginary daggers and spears at Han Joo Yoo—such a lucky girl darn! Now for a movie debut, Hero is not doing so bad, he is actually so good at it. His acting is quite good.

 

Han Hyo Joo – wow has she grown up acting-wise! She is a much better actress now compared to her drama debut in Goong S. She looks so beautiful in here too. This girl has some tough acting skills, she looks so regal in Goong S but she looks so perky and jolly in this movie, total transformation as I have always thought that she is a boring actress. But with this movie, yup I beg to differ.

 

I love some of the scenes in the movie like when Hana asked Jae Joon “Sir are you the handsome mail man from heaven?” I thought that was so cute. Another wonderful shot was when Jae Joon kissed Hana with sunlight shining through the background and the wonderful music playing, that was some great cinematography.

 

The kiss! Please do not start bashing for posting this pic, hero fans. We are chingu c-h-i-n-g-u! Aiyt! ^_^ Yup there we go locking lips and exchanging saliva! Omma omma..

 

The hugs..oh that is title of TVXQ/dong bang shin gi's first single! Hehe hug!

 

I love the entrance theme song, it sets the mood for the whole movie, the last time I have seen stuff like this, where the opening song sets the movie theme for me was Il Mare. Then not only the entrance theme song, are all the songs in the movie were thoughtfully chosen. They were melancholic, and funny and wonderful! I love the song "If I Have" by Biuret it is so stellar!

Trivia: Did you know the Fly to the Sky’s Brian Joo wrote this song for the movie’s ost?
