My Sister In Law is 19

This is great...I watch it again and again but never put it in here...why? considered it was my fault ^___^ too excited to review latest drama and movie until I've forgot about this one...well actually there is many but I'll start with this one...

It was a 2005 drama but still I'll say it's good...with the cast especially the Late Jung Da bin...Yoon Kye Sang and Kim Jae Woon...well that's great...

What I like about this drama is how the their relationship begin...starting with a fight, friendship, believeness...admiration...that's sort of things which actually happened everyday, everyway and almost everytime in our daily life....maybe to one of us...

Why did I think this drama was good...hmm I just don't know...maybe it was the character...actually everyone in this drama have bring the character so well...they show us how some people act differently, how some people control their emotion, how some people look so calm at the outside but an evil in the inside...those kind of character that make me think this drama was good...

It might not a great drama that you would mind to remember like Full House, or My Girl, or Coffee Prince but still it has it's own way to captured your heart...You don't have to think much how unrealistic this drama could be coz none of the drama I've watch seems real though but still I'll say some plot seems lack of something and the ending wasn't much as I expected but still watching it was nice...at least for me...as I say it wasn't a superb drama that you'll remember but still it was nice...if you're thinking of watching it...I'll suggest you borrowed it from someone else...buying it might ok for a person like me...coz I love to collect...but if you're buying it just to watch it and don't want to complain about it...you better not...coz as I say the ending wasn't as what you might expected....

Couple or Trouble

Just finish watching this drama...have nothing much to say about it hehehe...it was cool of coz...just like My Sassy Girl...this is great...

What I like about the writers is...they always show us the rough and the unlike side that women or girl could be...just like this one...The character that was supposed to be hated the most seems to be the character that I like the most...

These series is a re-make of the Goldie Hawn - Kurt Russell movie 'Overboard', released on 1987.

Naturally Han Yeseul (who had lived in the US before) takes the Goldie Hawn role.

In the original movie Goldie Hawn, a spoiled heiress, ends up taking care of Kurt Russell's four boys after losing her memory. To make it more palatable to Korean audience, in this drama the boys are not the man's son, but nephews.

In typical passion of the writers, two more original characters appear, Kim Sungmin (aka Kim Sungtaek), playing Han Yesle's husband, and Park Hanbyul. 

Synopsis: 

Anna Cho (Han Yeseul), the bratty daughter of a rich Korean-American developer, goes to Korea to find her henpecked Harvard-educated husband Billy Park(Kim Sungmin), who was not returning back to US for a long time. 

In the process she meets Jang Chulsoo (Oh Jiho), a handyman who was raising three nephews. 

Chulsoo is not a typical K-drama male lead; he is very money-hungry, and is something of a con man. After some incidents, Anna loses her memory and ends up in Chulsoo's place, where the story develops. 

The name Anna Cho (pronounced Anna Joh, which in Korean custom becomes Jo-anna) is a play on Goldie Hawn's character Joanna Stayton in the original Overboard.

Dirty Carnival

I am supposed to review this long ago but since I'm not feeling so well and lately easily fall sick...most of the time I only spend my time on bed and watching movie...I guess a long rest does not suits me well...I hope I could write my own reviews but this time I only copy it from somewhere else and hope it was ok with u guyz...please excuse me for only this time...anywhere...I love this movie...

Clocking in at two hours and fiften minutes Yu Ha's A Dirty Carnival - is perhaps a little over long but beyond that it's difficult to find anything negative to say about it. Fans of Yu's previous works, notably Once Upon A Time In High School, are already well aware of the writer-director's gift for creating rich characters and that gift has done nothing but develop and strengthen over the years. Nominally a gangster film but really a lushly realized character drama A Dirty Carnival is blessed with a detailed script, a host of realistic and fully fleshed out characters, and a charismatic and complex lead performance from Jo In-Seong.

Thus, they embark on a stormy relationship… As the bickering escalates, they end up falling for each other.

I'm Cyborg But That's Ok

First of all, I feel betrayed by my own stupid idea hehehe...may be I shouldn't believe all the bias review that seems to me like they were trying to make it look bad...or maybe it's me who being always in a different point of view with everyone...after reading so many reviews about this movie that make it sound not cool at all...I've decided not to watch it until now...but after watching it...I guess all **I mean some of them**the reviews was not telling the truth about what the movie trying to tell us.

This is what I think, well it's depends on what u guyz think anyway...you wouldn't know what a pshyco thinking, or what they manage to do, how they create an illusion around them, how they satisfied their needs and how they describe about life...this is what the movie trying to tell us...well of coz this is not the love story that you wanna watch if u're so into the typical type of storyline...but still u can find one in the movie without trying to show it clearly...come on how do u think a pshyco express their feeling...do u tend think they really understand what is love...instead of referring them as pshyco now i think these pshyco people is actually  having a great life in their own way ^___^.

Besides, at least I get the idea why they manage to gain all the attention and award...do you really think it's because Rain was in the cast? well one of the reason maybe...but the actors line is quite great...the other pshyco patient make it even interesting...

If you think you gonna watch it...first you have to put aside all the reviews you have read...and stop hoping for a similarity in a movie...open up a little bit...only that way you'll understand what they trying to tell you....especially the ending part hahaha it's supposed to be 18+ so if u're not getting the idea that means u're still underage

News:

The film opened in South Korea on December 8 2006, and was the number one movie at the box office in its opening weekend, grossing $2,478,626, mostly on the strength of director Park Chan-wook and the star-power of Rain (Bi). However, in its second weekend, it plummeted by 76%, and by its third weekend it was pulled from most screens.

By its third weekend, I'm a Cyborg, But That's OK sold approximately 780,000 tickets. In contrast, Park's films JSA, Oldboy, and Sympathy for Lady Vengeance all had easily sold over 3 million. As such, I'm a Cyborg, But That's OK is regarded as a box office flop, although still critically acclaimed. This includes winning an Alfred Bauer Award at the 57th Berlin International Film Festival and being selected as the opening film for the HK International Film Festival. Also, at the 43rd Baeksang Award in Korea in 2007, Rain (Jung Ji-Hoon) and Im Su-Jeong were nominated for New Best Actor and Best Actress. Rain won the award while Im Su-jeong lost to The Fox Family' Park Si-yeon.

And I Hate You So

Another beautiful movies that i could not say no to...even if it was release back on 2000 but still this is the movie that I will rewatch again and again. Well this romantic comedy quite nice to watch well something that you already know what the ending could be...it just beautiful...

1st Episode: 

The hate starts on a bad day for Luna Ng (Kelly Chen) - a headstrong writer with a daily newspaper column called Luna Talk (better translated as "Menstrual Cycle"). First her power is cut off, then she breaks her coffee cup in a local cafe and finally is denied an old record in an antique shop. The vinyl platter has special significance - she gave the special edition release to her ex-boyfriend as a gift, only to find it now in a shop rack complete with her old note written on its cover. She begs the shop owner (retro Teresa Mo) to sell it back to her but it's not for sale. Popular radio disc-jockey Cheung Yung (Aaron Kwok) has it on hold. The store owner calls Cheung and tells him about the LP's history but he refuses to let Luna buy it.

Later on, while hosting his radio show Vinyl Record Courier, Cheung tells his listeners how he refused to let the woman have the record he placed on hold, despite that very disc being a cast-off lover's gift. He adds that he hopes the lady in the shop will feel the "beauty of regret" after his denying her a personal momento to cling on to.

Luna is listening to the radio show. And far from feeling this "beauty", she's incensed by Cheung's words. She fires back at him through her column the next day and names him specifically. Cheung in turn responds on air, this time knowing who the lady in the store was. Luna replies by splashing wine on his face at a party and Cheung starts planning "long-term strategies". He gets reading up on her columns past and present and gets to know more about, and as a result get closer to, his rival...

While that's the start of the main story, there's a second, lesser plot travelling along too. The antique shop owner is somewhat lonesome, sitting alone in her curios shop squeezing her zits all day. She gets herself a dog and through it meets a like-minded man (Eric Tsang). Their companionship builds steadily as the film cuts back to them every now and then. But placed against the superstar-led main story, this thread seems sidelined, ambiguous and without conclusion.

And I Hate You So holds a lighthearted, often playful pace as it covers relationships forming, and and relationships not to be. The pace also benefits from an enjoyable premise for its main romance. Barring the Teresa Mo and Eric Tsang plot, the main story follows a steady course that's only interrupted once - a skippable internet chat show sequence which plays more as a name placement than as having any bearing on the story proper. Several aspects aren't adequately described in the plot however, in particular Luna's relationship with a character played by Mark Lui. The inclusion of the Vinyl Record Courier radio show in the story offers pleasing musical backgrounds with oldies of the Edith Piaff variety added to the soundtrack - a laidback change as nice on the ears as the film is on the eyes. The only disappointment here was the absence of local HK '60s tunes with the exception of only one gentle number (with lyrics nicely subtitled in English). I would have loved to hear a couple more such songs placed in there somewhere.

The look and sound of the film generally excels - one of the slickest looking local new releases I've seen for quite some time. A chirpy keyboard score opens the film as the camera sweeps about with fine, soft visuals and settles down comfortably. Throughout the film attractive interior set designs and pleasant urban surrounds are nicely framed and form an appealing background to set the script and characters against. Of the cast, Kelly Chen capably holds up her role as the obstinate writer storming about town. Aaron Kwok's character is written as an unlikeable person, and the actor stays true to that form. Jessica Hester Hsuan is also notable as a radio station staffer with eyes for Cheung Yung but unable to get close to him.
