Brand New Crush 2ND Edition


K so, Kim Woo Bin played Dong Yup the tough, sometimes bully, and  lovable high school student in A Gentleman's Dignity. I'm not really sure why I like him but there is just something about him that makes him  so attractive to me. I think its his eyes and the fact that he plays  the character so well. Every time I see him, 
Eat You Up By BoA starts playing in my headif you know what I mean.


 But yeah, ummm..  i'm just going to post my favorite pictures of him now, and maybe you guys will see what I mean. 


( Look at what his jacket says lol) 









Gah he wears clothes so well! No wonder he's a male model. 

My A Gentleman's Dignity Review



Hey Guys!

K so,  I FINAAAALLY finished A Gentleman's Dignity after like, 2 months (It usually takes me like 2 weeks to finish a drama)
My  Rating: 6.5/ 10

What I Liked :
1)  The friendship dynamics
2) Min Sook
3) Jung Rok's over-confidence and hilarity
4) Im Meh Ah Ri clothes were sooooo enviable!! I wanted to steal everything she wore.
5) The development in SOME characters
6) The ending was pretty good
7) The shoes thing that the Do Jin/ Yi Soo couple had  (If or when you watch it, you'll get what I mean)
8) The caring/tough love  relationship Yi Soo had with her students
9) Jonghyun from CN Blue :)
10)  The funny scenes

What I Didn't Like :
1) The Yoon/MehAhRi Relationship. I thought they were cute together but MehAhRi was so immature. I liked her character in the first few episodes and I hoped she would learn to be an adult and  control herself sometimes. BUT  her obsession with Yoon was super annoying.( I mean, she was supposed to be 24! How does a 24 year old act like that!? ) She had absolutely NO SELF RESPECT. And it seemed like her insecurities did not allow her to even consider the fact that she might deserve a man who won't  reject her a billion times before accepting his feelings for her. I understand why Yoon didn't want to accept his feeling but at the same time I wanted to slap him and Yell "Yoon you need to allow yourself to be happy and stop worrying about everyone else!"

2) For some reason I kind of found it hard to emotionally  connect to the main character (Yi Soo). Usually when i'm watching a drama its easy for me to fall in love with the main character but this time I really had to force myself to like Yi Soo. I mean, I felt bad for her in some parts but not really at the same time.

I can't really say more without spoiling it but I will say that I loved the friendship between the four men. I also loved seeing how they met and stuff. And you know they will always have each other's backs like when Yoon's wife died. that scene was super heart breaking. I think the friendship was what made the show so appealing and lovable to everyone.

 I actually really want a friendship like that but unfortunately I don't  really have the same friends for long periods  of time because I  move around a lot and its hard to stay in touch with people. Because people move on, make new friends, and forget about you. And suddenly they're strangers and suddenly your whole friendship seemed so ... forgotten, unimportant, irrelevant.  And you can never get that friendship back.


I''ll always manage to be happy and laugh about random stuff and entertain myself though. So I always know I will be fine in the end.

Davichi "Turtle"






Gah! I didn't  know a video can be so cute yet sad at the same time!
K so, Davichi has been my favorite duo since I started listening to Kpop. I became a fan when I watched Take Care Of The Young Lady (Starring one of my favorite K-actresses Yoon Eun Hye). You know when you finish a Kdrama and the OST gets stuck in your head and you can't stop listening to the songs and reminiscing about certain episodes? yeah that's how I felt when I heard "Hot Stuff" I was hooked on that song like it was crack. And when I finished Take Care Of The Young Lady, I found the song on Youtube and downloaded it. Then I wanted to know about the wonderful woman that sang the song and then I found out it was 2 of them and they're called Davichi! And after that I listened to almost all their songs and became a mega fan. The End.

So anyway, back to the main topic.I'm not really sure why the song is called turtle (I must inquire further about that)  but I really like it and as I said before, I love the video. It's starring Hyoyoung from 5dolls (I never realized how much she and Hwayoung look alike! I mean, I know they're twins but I could always tell them apart)
The song isn't really catchy and it's a nice song to just sit down and listen to (like most Davichi songs) but it was reels you in anyway, thanks to the powerful vocals of Haeri and Minkyung. So i'm going to listen to it again. Bye!
PS check out these picks from the MV  (can Haeri and Minkyung be in at least ONE of their videos!?)






She's so  pretty!
