Monstar (Korean) - Sul Chan & Se Yi, Sun Woo & Na Na



This was a decent show. There were a couple of things I did enjoy. The first being the music and the other being the couples. I did not care much for the lead couple which consisted of Sul Chan and Se Yi. They were cute and they did have a couple of good moments but I was not rooting for them as much as I was Sun Woo and Na Na.

When I found out Na Na had feelings for Sun Woo in episode six, I was shocked and sad. Here is this girl who appears to be tough and hate everything and everyone and yet she is in love with someone. It was heartbreaking to see her cry as she tried to sing a song and she remembered moments at school when she saw him. It was also sad because she thought Sun Woo was on a date with Se Yi. Every moment I saw Sun Woo and Na Na together and it is just the two of them, I hoped that they get together. Even if it was by a long shot. And not to mention the moments where he is the one that spots her whether she is walking to school or walking across the courtyard at school. I loved when the both of them sang a duet, and as they are singing, it flashes back to him walking behind her on the way to school. She does not notice him there as she is listening to music and singing along with it. Even though it was not much, that scene (especially of them walking down the street) was romantic.

I find it nice that he is willingly meeting up with her ten times. Another scene I loved was when she was dancing in episode ten and he watched her. When she ran off because she had been discovered, he went after her. Even though by the end of the show they did not get together, I have a little hope that they would get together in the future, whether it would be three years or eight years. Either way, I was wishing that they got together.

I found it funny that Sul Chan had a couple of awkward thoughts running through his imagination. One thought was Se Yi licking her lips and the other was her laying on top of him while he was in bed. In his room. At home. When I saw them, I thought, Pfft. Seriously? You are thinking about that right now? It was just funny.

I loved the scene in episode five where Do Nam beatboxed and Kyu Dong sang a version of 2NE1's “The Best”. I was shocked just like the rest of their group was. It was also funny that Na Na was the only one to clap when Do Nam and Kyu Dong were done. I could have their beatbox version and 2NE1's on repeat for a good few hours nonstop.

Boys Over Flowers (Korean) - Yi Jung & Ga Eul Now, there's not much to this show. This show was about this main couple who I don't give a crap about. Now, this is the couple to care about. In the beginning Yi Jung and Ga Eul didn't like each other. Yi Jung was like a womanizer. Ga Eul only hung out with him and his three friends because the leader of the group was hanging out with her friend. When the show got extremely boring and only followed the main characters, I would speed through the episode, specifically looking for Yi Jung and Ga Eul , and watched those scenes. Eventually, Yi Jung and Ga Eul begin to like each other and then fall in love. But they don't say a word. In the final episode, Yi Jung said to Ga Eul that he had to leave the country for a couple of years and that when he got back, the first thing he was going to do would be to look for her. So, after a couple of years, he returned, and guess what the first thing he did was. He looked for...

Tree of Heaven (Korean) - Yoon Suh & Hana I enjoyed this show. There were moments when it was happy and moments when it was sad. One thing I found unbelievable was the fact that every time something happened, Hana's aunt would hit her! I kept thinking that Hana just needed to turn around and get physical with her aunt rather than just taking the beatings! But no. One thing I liked was when she went to his hotel room on his birthday. The room looked so romantic. There were a lot of candles lit and a lot of her favorite rose was spread throughout the room. When I saw the room, I was in shock. I thought I was going to die with how beautiful the room looked. One thing that was sad was when Yoon Suh told Hana to marry Ryu. I was like, What?! You love her! She loves you! How can you tell her to marry somebody else?! And on her wedding day to Ryu, she was not happy. She couldn't even smile because she was so sad. And that made me sad because she should be marrying Yoon Suh. Not...

Advance Bravely (Chinese) - Yuan Zong & Xia Yao This was an excellent drama to watch, even though only the first season is out. I actually finished watching it last weekend but I have been reading the translated chapters (there's two hundred-plus and only ninety are done) for the past week. I like that some things were changed such as the characters. In the book, just about everybody smoked. In the show, no one smokes which I like. I like Yuan Zong and Xia Yao's chemistry because it keeps me guessing as to if Xia Yao is starting to fall in love with Yuan Zong in this scene or that scene. The same thing with Yuan Zong. Also, with how a certain scene between them ends, it makes me wonder if they kiss or just look passionately into each other's eyes. I do have to say that my favorite scenes are with them together. They could be talking about the weather or staring into each other's eyes while twenty people are around them and I would still think, “...
