Annyeong everyone,
Lord, love a duck! Yeah...I know you're probably looking like this right now: o.0
I was like that too when I first read this idiom, but I like it. Lord, love a duck: An exclamation used when nothing else will fit. Often fitting when one is stunned or dismayed. I am both stunned and dismayed. Why? Because of romance!
The love I'm talking about has nothing to do with me, make no mistake! I have a non-existing lovelife. But it's about my aversion towards romance. I hate romantic movies/books/songs. I value passion more than romance anyways. Romance makes me want to puke, it's all so standard and unoriginal. Seriously. It's all been done before. When I see a romantic comedy, I will already know how it ends after watching for 5 minutes. It's all the same.
And yet! Most of the dramas/doramas I've seen revolved around love and romance. Hana yori dango, You are beautiful, Yamato Nadeshiko Shichi Henge, Full House, Let's go to school, Sang Doo!, Sappuri, Sunao ni Narenakute, 1 Pound no Fukuin even IRIS! I shocked me when I realized this. But most of the time I watched those doramas/dramas for a particular reason: the humor. Or the actor (Kame, T.O.P, Rain, Jang Geun Suk, JaeJoong) Not so much the romance....I skipped it whenever I had the chance.
But what I can't possibly deny is the fact that my favourite songs are all lovesongs! Flower Lady, Love in the Ice, Why did I fall in love with you, Mirotic....they are all lovesongs! But do I really listen to them because they're lovesongs? Nope. I can't understand Japanese/Korean that well. I listen to them because I like the voices of my favourite 5 boys. Kizuna by Kame feels like a lovesong, but is about friendship. So I guess I'm saved.
For a few moments I thought I was turning into an entirely different person! But I'm still the same old me. Watashi wa daijoubu desu. Kekekeke

Just a QuickE!
Annyeong everyone,
Today I finished watching Gokusen I, the prequel of Gokuen II which is one of my favourite doramas. I must say I still like II more than I, even though the storyline was pretty much the same and quite predictable - it was still a lot of fun to watch though^^.
I just have a habit of liking whatever part I see first more. For instance, I like LotR 2 more than the other two, because I saw it first. I like Xmen three more than the other two parts, because I saw it first. So I like Gokusen II because I saw it first. And because it had Kamenashi Kazuya in it, kekeke. But the characters from Gokusen I were likeable too. I liked Uchii more than Shin though.
I guess I should watch season 3 as well, since I already saw everything else - including Gokusen the Movie with (can you guess????) Kame!

Annyeong everyone,
I just finished watching the Japanese dorama Tokyo Dogs. It's about two cops - Maruo and Sou who are after a drugbaron named Jinno. Sou and Maruo can't get along at all. The misunderstandings and quarrels between them are hilarious! The dorama is fastpaced and funny. You should all watch it sometime^^

Annyeong everyone,
I finished the Japanese dorama 'Kami no Shizuku' with Kamenashi Kazuya. If Gokusen II is a 9.5, Kami no Shizuku is a....6. The story was quite boring, only Kame made me stick around for this one. It wasn't a great dorama, it wasn't bad either but more...maa maa.
I also watched the movie NINJA ASSASSIN with Rain. I wasn't expecting a good storyline or anything, I figured it was gonna be a hack-and-slash movie like 300. (which I really enjoyed.) I wasn't disappointed. The story was mediocre, but it wasn't full of cliches as I'd expected. Rain had almost to no dialogue and when he did speak, I had a hard time understanding anything he said. Other than that, it was a great movie.
Ja mata ne?

I finished the Japanese dorama Yukan Club. Although they constantly overacted and used annoying sound effects, it was a decent dorama.
Ja mata ne, anata-tachi!

Nobuta wo Produce
Annyeong everyone,
I must say once again: Kamenashi Kazuya is a good actor (not yet great, but he'll get there) I loved his character in Nobuta wo Produce. The story of the dorama is very touching and funny at the same time. I'm not going to SPOIL it for you guys, so watch it yourselves. ^^
Ja, anata-tachi mate ne?

I've just finished the dorama Yamato Nadeshiko Shichi Henge and I loved it. Kame really acted superb in this dorama. Though the prank thing went a little too far.^^
Sayonara, mina!

Annyeong everyone,
Well, I finished 1 Pound no Fukuin and watched Gokusen the movie (both with Kame in it)
Liked it, loved it, desired it. Seriously want to buy these two products!!!
And yes: I'm now officially a fan of Kame's acting ^^
Scene from Gokusen II: (Kame is the one with the yellow drink, Jin's the other)
I've been watching Cartoon KAT-TUN too and especially loving the episode where they have the "Dangerous present exchange" with Ne-Yo. Never really realized how kind a face Ne-Yo has. And it was so cool he actually wore the shoes Koki made for him!
This is it for now,
Sayonara mina!

Kamenashi Kazuya
Annyeong everyone,
I have made a new discovery! His name is Kamenashi Kazuya! He's a member of the popular Japanese group KAT-TUN and an amazing actor.

I first saw him in the ongoing (and therefore annoying, because I have to wait for the new episode to be aired and subbed) Japanese dorama Yamato Nadeshiko Shichi Henge. It's an adaption of the shoujo manga 'Wallflower'. I love his character in this dorama. Kyouhei is a guy I would want to date, although he has issues. Last night I watched episode 8...and I cried at the end. Poor Kyouhei was told by his mom -who was in a frenzy - that she regret having him. No parent should ever say that!
I've also been watching Gokusen Season II (haven't seen season 1 or three...not planning to) with starred Kazuya and his bandmate Akaniashi Jin. Japanese doramas are pretty short; 10-12 episodes max and especially with this one I didn't quite like it. It was such a good dorama and I really loved the characters, so I was sad to see it end. I'm gonna watch Gokusen the movie too, because Kazuya (a.k.a. Kame) is in it too.
The next two doramas I'm gonna watch are: 1 Pound no Fukuin (with Kame) and Tokyo Dogs. I don't know yet what to expect, I'll see soon enough.

It's like a virus
Annyeong everyone,
Korean dramas are like a virus. You just can't fight them. You just have to watch them and look for new ones after you're finished, even if it interferes with your school work. It's like an illness, you can't help it.
The same goes for the Korean drama I just finished watching 3 seconds ago: Beethoven Virus. My favourite Korean actor is in it (Jang Geun Suk) and the girl from IRIS, but I forgot her name. At first I wasn't sure if it was worth my time. It's about a ragtag of "commoners" who come together to form an orchestra and the evil conductor who is known as the "Orchestra Killer".
But in the end, I loved it.
They have many problems but overcome them. They might now always get along very well, but they overcome that too. It's certainly not a feel-good drama like Full house or You're Beautiful, but it has its moments.
Only the ending was a bit weird, because it leaves you wondering what happens next. But that tends to happen to the best of dramas. Beethoven Virus is one of the most outstanding dramas I've seen so far. I recommend it to everyone!
Now I'm going to focus more on Japanese doramas, because I've only seen one: Hotman. I'd like to see more of those, so no more Korean dramas for me for a while. (But I wanna see Chuno real bad!!!!)
