Dreaming of Dream High

Tweet

One more day to Dream High's finale.

I can't wait to watch it whether subbed or not.

I'm really curious of who will be "K". I guess it will be Baek Hee (Ham Eun Jung) though I initially wanted it to be Sam Dong (Kim Soo Hyun). But as long as Sam Dong ended up with Hye Mi (Suzy) I'm good with that.

Here's the scene I like in ep 14, when Sam Dong, Hye Mi and Jin Gook were planning on their music videos. They wanted to show the improvements they undergone during the past year – Jin Sook mellowed down (he used to fight a lot), Sam Dong became confident (he’s a country bumpkin) while Hye Mi became humane (doesn’t have emotion or doesn’t know how to express herself).

For ep 15, I soo love the moment when Hye Mi realizes she like Sam Dong.

Love love love, I want your love.

KDrama: Dream High

I was first reluctant to watch this musical themed drama, thinking it was a Glee-popularity-driven-whatsoever-thing, but I was W-R-O-N-G!

Just the first episode completely nailed me and I went to watch the next 9 episodes straight. The story starts with the first ever Korean singer who won the Grammy’s in 2018, the singer “K” was said to have studied in Kirin Arts High School. Back to the present time, a number of aspiring idols took auditions to enter the prestigious school and so starts their grueling flight to stardom. But it’s not that simple, each kid has its own story to tell and their intertwining fates make it more complicated (I’ll probably need a separate post/s for this).

I already watch ep14 last night at kimchidrama and read the recap of ep15 at dramabeans (thanks JB and GF!) this morning. I have to wait for another week for the last ep, now that’s the hardest part.

I so love this KDrama! I love Hye Mi, Sam Dong, Jin Gook, Pil Sook, Jason and Baek Hee (but I guess I love Sam Dong a little more, guilty!). I don’t care who turns up to be the singer “K”. They all deserve it.
