The Princess' Man : Review


"What on earth is affection? I ask the world. And I will answer… That which makes us unhesitatingly grant life and death to each other. That is what affection is". 

Hey Guys!! I wrote this on my phone first so I'll  just list my points
1)  Soo Yang (Se Ryong/main girl's father) is one manipulative ass motherfucker. Like, he knew all the right things to say to get under people's skin/ control their actions

2) I initially liked him because even though he was an evil, disloyal SOB, he was still a good father. I found that kind of interesting

3) One thing I found super refreshing was the fact that although  princess Kyunghye had the "kind" father she wasn't the "kind' one and Se Ryong was the "kind" one but she but she got the evil father. I found this refreshing because usually the good girl/main character usually comes from the family of good and honest people but in Se Ryong's case it was different. Everything wasn't so black and white and I liked that.

4)When I started the drama I expected  princess Kyunghye to be problem and a stone cold bitch. In my mind I  already was  like "okay, she's gonna be super mean to Se Ryong and try to sabotage her relationship with Seung Yoo" but she turned out different. That definitely surprised me.

5) Myeon... Myeon.

I really wanted to strangle Myeon so much!! He's one character I expected to remain good and honest but clearly the writers enjoy blowing my expectations. He was so consumed with jealousy and that whole "filial piety" nonsense. Like, he was on that " if my family becomes evil, so must I" shit. I think in a way he admired Se Ryong because she just gave no fucks and most importantly she didn't feel obligated to follow her dad's evil ways or even turn a blind eye to the stuff he did. She called him out constantly!  She was strong and brave and Myeon was weak sauce and a push over.

6) Now, when it comes to the romance aspect, I think Se Ryong and Seung Yoo had one of the most believable  kdrama relationships ever. Their love was palpable, Their kisses were authentic and their words sounded genuine. It was one of those kdrama relationships that makes you go "ahhh I want a love like this" or "wow, true love really is unbreakable". Corny shit like that.



Yeah... lets just bask in their love for a second..

Miss A "Hush"


Miss A has always been super sexy but I think they definitely took it to another level with their new song "Hush".
When I first heard  the chorus part, I thought the instrumentals were a bit weak but then it builds up and I think that's one of the reasons why I really like the song. I don't think it's my  absolute favorite Miss A song (Bad Girl, Good Girl will always be my fave) But I think I like it more than "I Don't Need A Man".


Now, Back to the sexiness. The way Miss A just oozes sex appeal tho!! They make it look like so easy. Yeah, the dance was pretty risque and out there but I never really go that "okay, that makes me a really uncomfortable, please stop" feeling while I was watching the MV.
I mean DAMN! Teach me your ways Miss A!! I'm a willing student!

Overall I think I like everything about this comeback. The outfits, the MV, the song, the Choreography and those freaking body chains! (from the first picture) Let me have it!

Hottest Men of Mixed/Asian Ancestry

Hey Guys!
So I just finished Little Mom Scandal (if you haven't watched it or heard about it, Google it now!) I won't get into my opinions right now because I might write a review on it.
Secondly, I think my blog is due for a new eye candy post so I decided to make one :) The spotlight is usually specifically on full Korean actors/singers so I decided to shift the focus for today.
( These are the only ones I could think of but I'm sure there's more of them out there...somewhere...call me...lol jk..)
 Anyway, This is in no particular order because I wouldn't be able to choose and if I tried, I would probably get a headache.

ILJIMAE : Review


I definitely agree with the commenters on MyDramaList that said this drama was slow, but I don't think that is the main problem with this drama. I think the problem is, not only was it slow, it was excruciatingly frustrating . At the beginning of episode 8, I thought to myself  "If a person can get through the first 7 episodes if this drama, they can get through ANY drama". Without spoiling anything, I 'll just say that this drama gives you an emotional workout. Like seriously, just be prepared. Secondly, ALOT of stuff that happened in the last 2 episodes should and could have happened like 4 episodes ago. Towards the end of the end of the drama, it seemed like the writers kind of just found themselves in a pool of loose ends and were like, "OH SHIT...WE HAVE TO TIE ALL OF THESE!?". And I was like, "FINALLY! STUFF IS GETTING REVEALED AND RESOLVED!" But even though I was happy, I can't deny the obvious fact that it felt soooooo rushed.
                                                           Some BongJimae eye sweets hehe ;) 

Like, We could have had it AAAAALLL WRITERS!! Iljimae could have been a 10 for real!! Besides the obvious downfalls, I think Iljimae's plans were so elaborate and well though-out! And ya'll know I love me some Junki!! And there was Han Hyo Joo (although I found her character rather bland) and Hot Stuffs Park Shi Hoo as Shi Hoo. Heh. I see what you did there, writers. AND the girl from Vampire Prosecutor!( Her character was annoying at first but she totally grows on you! BONG SOON-AH!!) Anywho, I gave this drama a 7 because even though it frustrated the hell out of  me, it had some real redeemable qualities.
