Myung Wol the Spy: Lies and Betrayal

Tweet

Oh My! I feel for you Eric, all the pain from more lies and betrayal.

It's my first KDrama with Eric as the male lead and I must admit he is quite good in acting and oozing with male sex appeal. He's a full blooded man.

But as I've said I'm more into the flower boy type - the cutie next door like my JGS (missed him).

Sticky Note: Myung Wol is Back

I told you, Myung Wol is CRAZY.

Now, Han Ye Seul is returning back to Korea to film the remaining eps of Myung Wol the Spy. I am happy for the drama and for HYS herself. If she indeed was harassed or provoked to do what she did, going MIA would only cast doubts. It might be the end of her career, but at least she has finished her pending commitments and if she wants to stay, I think she still can. Media is an awfully powerful tool, you can make it work for you or against you. Whatever is the case, let’s just wait.

Speaking of which ep11 is out and I can’t wait to see ep12 where HYS returns.

Sticky Note: Han Ye Seul goes MIA

Oh my! Just when I was getting the hang of Myung Wol’s craziness, a more shocking news came. Han Ye Seul playing Myung Wol, ditched her role and went to LA.

Sad. For HYS, Eric and the rest of the production team. HYS claims she is overworked while the crew claims she is a primadonna. I just hope everything is settled smoothly, not that it is possible for the time being as HYS faces multiple law suits from KBS (the network), her own agency and other companies she represent. She did something unacceptable, I agree but maybe she has deeper reasons that we might or not know and understand.

For now, I just want a good ending to the drama.

Currently Watching: Myung Wol the Spy

Crazy. This is the best word befitting KDrama: Myung Wol the Spy. The script is crazy, the actors are crazy and I for watching is also crazy.

I was really baffled that they would make a comedy about North Korean spy, I was pretty sure the South and the North are not in good terms. So for the drama to depict the North Koreans spy as comedic is quite unnerving. Am I being pathetic? Thinking it would damage the already damaged relationship.

About the actors, I was really curious about Eric. I admit he has this male charisma, but I guess I don’t dig him. I still prefer the boy-next-door type like Jang Geun Seok and Jung Il Woo.

I am at ep 6 already and I intend to watch till the end because it was funny and my curiosity (about the N-S thing). It also serves as my buffer while waiting for new eps of You’ve Fallen For Me and TwDrama: Drunken To Love You.

KMovie: You're My Pet

Tweet

I was never into Asian Movies, except maybe horror ones, I don’t know the reason. I am ok with Asian dramas period. Although I was tempted to watch one or two KMovies, it always never materialized.

But it will end with You’re My Pet!

That’s how I love Jang Geun Suk nope I adore this man! Even if the last KDrama was a disappointment, I still followed him like a love sick puppy.

You’re My Pet is the Korean Adaptation of another manga and JDrama Kimi Wa Petto where the main male lead is Matsumoto Jun (I like him too!).

JGS will be paired with Han Ye Seul.
