A "Green Rose" stands for eternal love. A love that only appears in Heaven. This drama is about a man named Jang Joong-won who is framed for murder. Joong-won goes through many near-death situations where he escapes going to jail and flees to China. However, leaving Korea leaves a very large scar in his heart. He leaves the woman he loves, Soo-ah (Lee Da-hae).

When he returns to Korea, he focuses on one thing...that is revenge. He vows to find those who framed him for murder. He first goes after Cha Yoo-ran (Kim Seo-hyeong), the man who had lied in court opposing Joong-won...

 

Other Stuff:

** Green Rose was aired by SBS on March 2005 in Korea, so this must be Goo Soo's latest series.

** Lee Da Hae played Lee Dong Gun's ex-girlfriend, in Sweet 18. She won in the 2005 Baeksang Awards Best Newcomer, so I guess she well, she must be good.

** I Love Goo Soo!! I already loved him when I saw him in arirangtv's comedy sitcom, "My Funky Family" He was not only so so cute there, he was absolutely hilarious!! Believe me the guy can make you laugh!

**This new primetime series casts popular Korean TV stars Ko Soo as Jerome and 2005 Baeksang Awards Best Female Newcomer Da-Hae Lee as Angela. Jong-Hyuk Lee and Seo-Hyung Kim also play special parts in the program.

Korean series normally run for 20 hours, but "Green Rose" is exceptional since its producers decided to extend it to 22 hours because of the good feedback that the show garnered in Korea. In fact, a Japanese company recently acquired the broadcasting rights of "Green Rose" to air the popular series in Japan.

Synopsis:

Gao Enzhen was the adopted daughter of a Country sanitary chief/ doctor and she fell in love with her music teacher that was the first time she saw and fell in love with Enhao. He never knew.  Enzhen suffered from aphasia she becomes dumb, her fingers hurt so bad she stopped playing the piano.

Gao Enhao and Gao Enxie are half brothers who are born of the same father but of different mothers, they are both doctors. Enhao looks for his long lost mother and finds a job at the island sanitary, he fell in love with Enzhen and he even made her talk again, with him she found her voice.

Enhao goes back to Seoul to find his mother but he had a car accident and had amnesia. Enzhen found him and stood by him until he regains his memory and remembers her. While she took care of him, she spent lots of time together with Enxie, she found him to be handsome, funny and enjoyable to be with.

Enzhen found it hard to choose between the elder brother who suffered amnesia and the younger bother who has learned to love her already.

 

**Heheh so I can actually write a summary…I am bad at writing summaries. If you want to post these summaries somewhere please credit me okie?

 

 

What I think:

Okay about Jee Jin Hee, he is okay really; it's just that when I saw his series, Love Letter, I was more of a Joo Hyun Jae fan than his. He is such a good actor! Ahhh! I miss Joo Hyun Jae all of  sudden!

 

After watching "Memories in Bali" I said I just have to watch more Jo In Sung series, with a happier ending! J I don't know where to start here so I just listed down the nice, must-see scenes in the series, mostly are JIS's scenes:

 

** The first meeting of Enxie (JIS) and Enzhen (GHJ) where Enzhen was crying in Enhao's bed and Enxie, who was sleeping on the other bed beside his brother, rose up and just stared at Enzhen! Jo In Sung was his usual funny self here!

 

** All the scenes where Jo In Sung is palying that darn cello! He absolutely cannot play that that thing!! His chords are wrong, he can't strum the strings to save his life, and he looks absolutely hilarious!! J

 

**All the scenes where Jo In Sung pukes because he fears seeing blood. My god! I ended up laughing in those scenes I don't know!! J Insung seems to be over-acting those puke scenes!

 

** Where JIS and his gang staged a "rescue" of Enzhen, JIS practiced his moves and his lines… but Enzhen was so brave and she just slapped the gang leader!! I fell of the floor laughing at this one.

 

**All the scenes where JIS was pursuing Goo Hyun Jung are sweet romantic ones! He brought dozens and dozens of eggs and painted each egg with funny faces, and then he gave it to Enzhen. She loves the painted eggs so much that she can't bear to eat the eggs so they gave it to the children's ward. He also pretended to shout out his cell phone number so that Enzhen can hear it and call him.

 

** Brothers and Enzhen were enjoying a day at the park, I like the scene where the 3 of them are skating, Goo Hyun Jung looks so pretty there! Enxie just took pictures of here in his digital camera.

 

** Jo In Sung was wearing a red jacket, Goo Hyun Jung wore a pink sweater and he just hugged her while she was cooking rice. He told her if he can hug her for 10 minutes, then for just 5 minutes, then for just a few seconds…He wants to stay like that forever…I remember this line from Meteor Garden with Lei and Shancai at the beach in Japan. Hmmmm… J

 

** Enzhen was walking home, Enxie was following her behind. She was telling him the million reasons why he should go home already, she said I'm worried about you… JIS just walked fast to her, turned her around and kissed her!!! Aishhhh!!! J J J

 

** Enzhen and Enxie stayed in the Island together and they played make believe family with a kid neighbor. Enzhen is the mom, Enxie is the dad and the kid was their little son. They look so cute together!! The parts where JIS calls her "Wife" just exhilarates me! "Wife can you cook for us?" "Wife will you come here" My god and JIS flashes her his cutest smile ever! Goddd!!J

 

** SPOILER ENDING!! STOP READING HERE IF YOU DON'T WANT TO KNOW THE ENDING JUST YET. I WARNED YOU OKAY? * DOES OKAY SING*

 

The ending: Enhao calls Enzhen (who's already living in the Island) and told her his grandfather won't be coming back because he's volunteering in Africa, but another doctor is sent to you, meet him at the dock. She runs out to the dock, she wanted it to be Enxie so badly and he appeared at the dock and they just hugged!!

Rating: 8 Korean kimchis out of 10

 

Other Stuff:

SBS will broadcast a new drama called SpringDay beginning January 8, 2005. That drama will star Go Hyun Jung, Jo In Sung (Hearts in Bali/Shoot for the Stars/Piano) and Ji Jin Hee (Miss Kim's Adventures in Making a Milion/ Dae Jang-geum/ Love Letter). Most of us do not know who Go Hyun Jung is since she hasn't been working for about 10 years. She is a former Miss Korea runner-up who became a very popular actress before she got married into the Samsung family and began raising a family. She got a divorce in 2003 and is now making a comeback.

** So this series was just aired in Korea this year.

 

** The closing and the opening credits song are really nice ones! The song sounds like the  ones played in Stained Glass.

I’m just out of my league this weekend and Atche Cher  knows why…

 

He who keeps stepping on my feet when we dance

He who plays the piano for me

He who introduced me to FTTS and their music

He who loves giving me funny image animations

He who made my tears fall just like that

He whom the Gods have written to be with someone

He whose hand I’m letting go…

 

 

Then I read this really nice poem…

I like the last line try to read that….

 

 

 

All your life, you had specific dreams about what
your family life would be like when you finally
married.

You were so intent on what you wanted, you even
made a list of qualities and characteristics you were
looking for in a spouse, in a home, in your job, in
your children.

But time passed, and that person you were so
intent on didn't come along.

All of your friends married, had children, had
beautiful homes.

And still you were single. You prayed and prayed
and prayed for that person to come along, but nothing
happened.

You had a good job. You served in your church.

You spent daily time with the Lord in prayer and
studying the Word.

You dedicated your life to serving God in every
way possible, but still nothing.

So you decided to take matters into your own
hands, and you began an active search for a mate.

And within a short period, you met someone who
almost fit the bill.

Almost.

Sure, there were a few things Missing, a few rusty
spots in that person's character.

But, after all, no one is perfect.

Maybe your goals were too high. Maybe you'd been
asking for the impossible.

Maybe this was the person God wanted for you so
your character could grow through dealing with his or her
failings.

Even though it often seems that God is slow to
answer prayers, no matter whether it's about a
mate, or a job, or our children, or our finances, or
anything else, we have to remember that God
doesn't wear a watch.

Nor does He look at our human calendars. He sees
with eternal eyes.

He operates on an eternal timetable, according to
His plan and His schedule.

If God seems to be running late, don't get impatient
and run ahead of him.



Wait for the Lord's timing in everything.

To the single folks out there, this is for you.

Single means you have the time to grow and be the
person you want to be.

Single gives you space to grow.

Sometimes, it is harder to grow when you are too
close to someone.

Trees are planted far apart so they can spread their
branches and become strong as they mature.

Single means learning to live by yourself.

However, that is no more difficult than learning to
live with somebody else.

Single means freedom.

You are free to spend a week's vacation on the
beach, to take computer courses, to work late on
an interesting project, to spend the day in bed
with a good book or simply with a person who has
read one.

Single means learning not to need a man/woman to
make your life meaningful but learning to live with
a man/woman because you want to be with
him/her.

Single means that sometimes you will wonder why
you will bite your lip and feel wistful and wonder if
marriage is better.

Ironically, yet quite happily, single is feeling
good about being in control of your life.

It is liking and respecting who you are and why you
are.

Single is realizing that being married is not
necessarily better, it is merely different.

Single means that there could be something
wonderful around the corner and you can take advantage of
it.

Being single means you are free to love again.
