Playful Kiss aka Mischievous Kiss- mslee's first impression

As a certified k-drama addict, I just finished another one, Playful Kiss where SS501 leader Kim Hyun Joong and Jung So Min are the lead stars.





Unlike other k-dramas I watched, this one started a little bit boring for my taste. But then I thought that with Kim Hyung Joong as the main character, it will certainly have a huge follower and maybe the writer will come up with wittier and more cute scenes, and after being patient with the story, soon I came to enjoy it.


Watching this drama reminded me of my high school days when I also had this huge crush on  a guy who was popular back then because of his intelligence. This sort of drama makes teenagers think of their own love story and how they deal with it.


Playful Kiss brings out a positive attitude to students, showing audience to be more diligent in studying to achieve high grades and at the same time using inspiration from a special someone to be more productive.


Jung So Min played her part very well, she was suited to portray a student. Her acting skills are ok and I like her facial expressions, so cute and adorable, she fits her character very much.


Kim Hyung Joong on the other hand stayed the same. From BOF days to Playfull Kiss, he still had this still expressions, very rigid sometimes and I think that he still has to do more acting workshop, though there were times in the drama that if he smiled and relaxed a little, he could be a natural.


As a whole, I'd say that Playful Kiss is a good drama, many cute scenes, too and of course, viewers like me were not disappointed to have our happy ending story. The wedding scene was much anticipated like the honeymoon scene.:))

book qoutes...



A book is the only place in which you can examine a fragile thought without breaking it, or explore an explosive idea without fear it will go off in your face.  It is one of the few havens remaining where a man's mind can get both provocation and privacy.  ~Edward P. Morgan




Books are the quietest and most constant of friends; they are the most accessible and wisest of counselors, and the most patient of teachers.  ~Charles W. Eliot




My test of a good novel is dreading to begin the last chapter.  ~Thomas Helm




We should read to give our souls a chance to luxuriate.  ~Henry Miller




A blessed companion is a book, - a book that, fitly chosen, is a lifelong friend,... a book that, at a touch, pours its heart into our own.  ~Douglas Jerrold




If you resist reading what you disagree with, how will you ever acquire deeper insights into what you believe?  The things most worth reading are precisely those that challenge our convictions.  ~Author Unknown

An Angel Left Her Wings

by: Tina M. Marascia


I have this little angel. For me she left her wings.


She has no idea how much happiness she truly brings.
She brightens up my days with her smiles and her laughs.
She helps me to remember all the blessings that I have.


Her face, it is so perfect, she's sweet and soft and pure.
Sometimes she can be willful and sometimes she is demure.
She tries her very hardest to please and do what's right.
She gives the greatest hugs from morning until night.


Every person that has known her sees this light within her soul
I know that in this whole great world, she has a special role.
She's helpful and considerate to everyone she knows
This light in her shines brighter as my angel grows.


When she sees someone is sad, it opens up her heart.
She wants to do all that she can; she wants to do her part.
She'll squeeze away the sorrow and make me forget about my pain.
She shows me where the sun is when we're hiding from the rain.


I know that God must love me, He showed me with His Grace
I knew just how completely when I saw my angel's face.
And in that very moment when she came into my world,
I knew that she was so much more than just my baby girl.


She would be my sunshine, with a sweetness that won't end.
And when she grows up one day she would be my closest friend.
She would be the reason I would always try my best.
For my little angel baby girl would be my greatest test.


When God entrusts to you an angel, who has left her wings for you.
Encircle her with love with everything you do.
Let her know God made her, and that He trusts you with her care.
Be sure to make time for special moments with her to share.


And when at night she finally says her prayers and goes to sleep
I Thank Him for my angel, and ask for him to always keep
A watchful eye and hand to protect her from this world.
Protect my little angel; protect my baby girl.

Riches

by: Jeanne D. Rhein




They say that times were tough then
That money was very tight
But I remember my childhood
And I know that can't be right

Mom would cook our dinner
Dad came home at five
We were all sitting at the table
Waiting for him to arrive

We wouldn't eat from a microwave
Or a resturant down the street
We all ate Mom's home cooking
And boy that can't be beat

We didn't eat in front of the TV
Or with a phone in our hand
We weren't plugged into a stereo
bopping to the latest band

We would all sit at the table
Everyone in their place
There were never any surprises
We reconized every face

Brothers to the left of me
Sisters to the right
That's the way we ate dinner
Every single night

We laughed we joked we talked we ate
We were a family don't you see
Though some may have been raised poor
You can see it wasn't me

We ate collards we ate biscuits
We ate fatback and blackeyed peas
We said yes sir we said no sir
We said thank you ma'am and please

So when you talk of family life
Or how it used to be
Though many had more money
None were as rich as me

Yoon Eun Hye attends Finding Mr. Destiny VIP movie premiere

Together with other Korean co actors YEH was spotted attending the VIP movie premiere of Gong Yoo and Im Soo Jung, Finding Mr. Destiny.

It's a romantic comedy about helping a person find her first love.
During the movie’s press conference on the same day, actor Gong Yoo expressed, “I wouldn’t want to find my first love. I think creating memories is more important.”
Im Soo Jung added, “Everyone has a first love. My memories of my first love are quite vague, unlike Seo Ji Woo’s, who has a very long memory of her first love.”
Star who attended tonight’s movie premiere include Park Ha Sun, Kim Sae Ron, Kim Bum, Jung Il Woo, Kim Joon, Gong Hyo Jin, Yoo In Na, Kim Ha Neul, Sandara Park, Lee Chun Hee, Yoon Eun Hye, Kim So Eun among others.
As a GYEH shipper, that's Gong Yoo and Yoon Eun Hye, (started from Coffee Prince), I am happy to see YEH attends the red carpet premiere this 24th November. It' s like a confirmation of how they still get in touch with one another, like during the times when GY was in the military service and she called him through his radio station unexpectedly.:))
      
      
      
     

Song Seung Hun and Kim Tae Hee on "MY PRINCESS"

A new drama will start filming soon where Song Seung Hun and Kim Tae Hee will be the lead actors. I already reported this on my previous blog( http://1107wanderingthoughts.blogspot.com/2010/10/kim-tae-hee-song-seung-heon-to-star-in.html ) and it was a good thing thy already started their script reading on the 20th of November. The casts gathered and Lee Soon Jae cracked a few jokes to break the ice.

This is a first romantic comedy for Song Seung Hun and I am looking forward to see him in this kind of drama.

The staff are all optimistic about this project seeing that the actors are all matched and hard working. The drama will air January 2011..of course in Korea:)

Princess Hour

After finishing My Fair Lady, I started on another YEH drama, Princess Hour. It was an old drama, I think it was shown before Coffee Prince because Eun Hye was still thin and very young there. A story of a common girl meets Prince Charming. A real prince in the story.


Joo Ji Hoon and Yoon Eun Hye in Goong/Princess Hour





As usual, YEH's acting skills were great and the story light and funny.  I just wished that it was not so long, they could have cut it at episode 17. But then, they prolonged it. But it was ok.
