[mslee's thoughts] Witch's Romance - My New Rom Com Series



Right! This drama, Witch's Romance from tvN is my new rom/com favorite. This will definitely going to be a new addiction in the coming weeks. With the same director who handled I Need Romance 2 and Cruel City, which are in my list of favorites, I already have a good feeling of the drama even before I watched the 2 episodes. And I was not disappointed! I love the pilot episode. Even the predictable funny and unbelievable scenes are cute. 

I love the character of Uhm Jung Hwa, the reporter Ban Ji Yeon who is fearless and will do anything just to grab a scoop or scandal of celebrities. A woman who is still single in her late 30's and has a mother obsess in finding her a man. Her story, a jilted bride! Ouch! Seriously, a sad love story that haunts her during days like White Day in Korea. Her personality, ahmm...well, least favorite of her colleagues. Friends? Well, she still has one who talks to her, named "traitor" in her mobile phone. But I do like her spunk. 

The charismatic boy, I mean young man who will be tangled in her life is Park Seo Joon, as Yoon Dong Ha who does all kinds of jobs just to earn a decent living. Seems a kind person. They have a ridiculous start, Ji Yeon running off with the bicycle Dong Ha prepared for one of the children gathered in an outdoor event. 

Knowing this drama is being done by the director [Lee Jung Hyo] whose works I love, I am already expecting the cute scenes which made me grin and thought, "Yeah, I love the interaction of the characters." Of course, I give credit also to the writer for the fast pace of the story, bringing already skinship and kiss between the main leads. The "noona/dongsaeng" chemistry is so great I am so looking forward to more passionate yet funny scenes of the two.

I also see familiar actors in the drama. There's Yoon Hyun Min who plays the friend of Yoon Dong Ha and lives just opposite Ban Ji Yeon's apartment. He also was hired by the vengeful colleagues of hers to humiliate her in public by confessing and almost kissing her but at the last minute, laughed off calling "ahjumma". Ohhh...naughty. I hope he stays on the drama.

Now as I write, I can't wait for next week for another 2 episodes. 

I made some screen caps from the 2 episodes. Just the cute moments and of course, the handsome face of Park Seo Joon. Not sure if this is my first time watching him, so I think I will search other dramas of him. He could be my next fixation! :))

Image
Final episode [20] ... Recap... Tae Sang agreed to marry Seung Jo. SJ excited. MD went to TS office, talked with TS then SJ came in and TS announced to MD they are getting married. MD, a bit surprised or not, with her poker face [but there is conflicting emotions there] congratulated the couple. MD dreamed of TS...in the bookstore, they were still together happily bantering at each other. Woke up, found it was only a dream. Went to their old home, to the bookstore, realized it's not real and stared with tears at the chalkboard, at the bookstore. [regret is written on her face] TS and Tae Min went to mom's shop, mom cried seeing TM. A small family reunion followed. Wedding pictorial for the couple. Yong Gap told SJ about what really happened to the missing person whom TS mom eloped with. He died accidentally when he fell on the stairs. MD and JH talked and seemed like breaking up. [well, what they did was wrong so they surely won't be happy toget...

[mslee's thoughts] The King's Face Episode 23 Final Screen caps and Review

Image
Finally I am writing my thoughts on episode 23. Even in this last episode, the King never took time to understand the heart of Prince Gwang Hae. It was so easy for him to think that Prince Gwang Hae will take his seat away from him. Yes, Gwang Hae admitted thinking of being a King but it does not mean he has a mind that could be accused of treason. Prince Gwang Hae advised his father that it should be the people he must worry about and not his face because what happens to the lives of the people makes a King's face. The King has not had the face of a king until now because he lacked the understanding and the heart of what his duty entails. His people are not happy and still suffers that's why those transcend to him as the King who over looks on them, giving him the face of not suited to be King. The advise was so honestly brutal that the King's anger to Gwang Hae made him ill and the fact that  the poison Ga Hee mixed with his tea already s...

[mslee's thoughts] Ep. 15 & 16 - Secret Final Review

Image
Honestly, I was not so eager to watch the final 2 episodes. Why? Perhaps I know the story is nearing it's end and there'll be no more Secrets to look forward to next week, Why do great dramas end so fast? Hmmm...sighing here. this is somewhat long... Episode 15 Anyway, last week's ending was another cliffhanger for viewers. The question hanging in my mind was, will Do Hoon win in this game he planned? Yes, it is like a game of hide and seek, hiding secrets and seeking the truth. Yoo Jung finally had the courage to go on and file a complaint against DH for abandoning her father leading to his death. Even as she warned him that she will go through with it, DH was initially shaken but he did not let her undermine him. He was afraid for himself, the reason he gathered all the documents that will make the two companies shake. By this time, DH knew what he had to do to survive. Se Yeon was clouded by her obsession, not even considering what those documents will d...
