Love Around

Love Around (Taiwanese) - Zhe Xuan & Ying Ying






I did like this show, not as much as several others and better than others. I liked that there were two very different families that ended up coming together in the end in a positive light rather than the negative one that had been plaguing both for years.
I originally started watching to see how Zhou Zhen and Xiao Shu ended up getting together but that changed about halfway through. I did like that he did things for her before they even became friends. It was funny that he won a baseball contest for her just so that she would leave him alone after that. I also did like that he secretly helped her when things were bad for the radio station. Even though it was sad that he broke up with her, I liked that he took her feelings into consideration when he found out how her brother was killed. I was also happy that they eventually got married. But, like I said, I only started watching for the two of them and that stopped at one point.
That point was when Zhe Xuan and Ying Ying met each other. I found it funny when a bucket of water was accidentally dropped on her. I also found it funny she would always try to find some way to make him apologize and he would basically tell her off. I found myself looking more and more forward to whenever they were together just to see what would happen at that time. I think that she changed when she saw Fei Li punch Zhe Xuan in the stomach just so that she would stop bothering Fei Li about beating up Zhe Xuan. I was sad when she eventually confessed her feelings to Zhe Xuan and he turned her down which was understandable. I wanted to tell her that everything would be okay and that there were other guys out there. But, part of me was happy that he could see she was sincere about her feelings when she started crying in front of him. I am truly happy that they did get together because they balance each other and he did end up causing her to change the way she lived her life.
In the end, I liked it but mostly because of all the moments between Zhe Xuan and Ying Ying. To think I started watching to see one couple but ended up looking forward to a different couple in the end. I think the two of them were worth it.

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, “...
