At last! The final episode is over. My thoughts? I was smiling while watching this episode. It's a feel good romance/comedy. So light with a bit of heavy drama on the side. I love the ending. The happy atmosphere was there. The camaraderie is genuine. I see fun and laughter. And the proposal although a bit corny, Jang Dong Jun carried it with so much elegance and sophistication. Confident and dignified Kim Do Jin-ssi truly in love! A true gentleman indeed! There was no hurry even though this is the last episode. They did it just fine.
It left me a feeling of happiness. I thought 20 episodes are not enough, but they are again right. It's time to pack up. They ended beautifully. High ratings are just a bonus. I agree with some comments that adding more episode would make it boring and perhaps ruin the story. Kudos to all people behind AGD!
With 51.3% ratings for the final episode, I think AGD ended successfully!
A late fan of Moon Embracing the Sun, that's me. But fortunately, not too late.:)) Glad that it was added in my drama lists and not disappointed or felt I wasted so much hours watching it marathon way. As a K-drama follower, I am taking my time being a fan of a particular actor and actress. I have to personally watch their shows or dramas before I start blogging about them. And Kim Soo Hyun is my latest additional Korean actor in my lists of favorites.
Why? Found him so good in acting. So natural even though he is still young.
So right now, I am searching all about him and some related to his previous popular and successful drama Moon Embracing the Sun.
One of the things I noticed while watching the drama, though there is chemistry between Soo Hyun and Ha Ga In who were playing the lead roles, the romantic scenes were few and somehow short. Perhaps it was because Ha Ga In is already married and it was one of the reasons. But still, she is so beautiful and they both complimented each other whenever they are in the same scene. Age did not matter, Soo Hyun's aura totally diminished the age gap between them.He carried the role perfectly.
But one thing I noticed, because I really like Kim Yoo Jung even though she is still so young, 13 years old only, she is also so beautiful and charming. There was a scene, a flashback and a mirage, where she appeared in front of Soo Hyun, playing Lee Hwon, and I noticed that they also have this amazing chemistry.:)
Then just as I was searching the net, I found this piece of article, five months back already, and connected to Moon Embracing the Sun. Reading this I smiled at Kim Soo Hyun's answer. Was he just being professional and polite or did he find the cute Kim Yoo Jung pretty? [my own thoughts only]
the news:
Kim Soo Hyun chooses between ‘Moon’ co-stars Han Ga In and Kim Yoo Jung
Actor Kim Soo Hyun recently sat down for an interview with TV Chosun‘s ‘Entertainment in TV‘, and was asked to choose between actresses Han Ga In and Kim Yoo Jung.
When put between his two ‘The Moon That Embraces the Sun‘ co-stars, Kim Soo Hyun couldn’t decide on just one so he ended up choosing both. Without hesitation, he stated with a laugh, “I’ll have both. Since I was a king in the drama, don’t you think I can have both?”
On a more serious topic, he went on to discuss why he cried with his senior and junior co-stars after the drama came to an end.
His answers was totally like a King. A greedy one? Well, during that period, a King can have more than one wife.:))
I hope that one day soon, Kim Soo Hyun and Kim Yoo Jung will reunite in a drama [love story] were they are the lead stars. It would be nice to see them again in a more romantic scene because I saw there really exist an amazing chemistry between them.:))
Starting my morning with a surprising news and a sexy photo of one of the hottest member of Super Junior! Choi Siwon in a revealing photo shoot every fangirl would surely scream in delight! The popular and handsome singer/actor was featured in a magazine.
the news:

cre: allkpop
Siwon‘s photoshoot with world-renowned designer/photographer Karl Lagerfeld was finally revealed on the website of famous magazine ‘VMAN‘.
In addition, Siwon drew awe from all for his unexpected connection to the internationally famous fashion designer, after revealing a friendly photo of the two taken in Paris.
The article titled ‘Seoul Caliber‘ featured on the website of VMAN magazine praises Siwon saying, “Since joining the Korean pop group Super Junior as one of 12 members in 2005, singer, actor, and model Siwon Choi has emerged as an icon without parallel in the ever- expanding culture of K-Pop. Also part of the Chinese offshoot Super Junior M, Siwon has been blazing a new trail by helping to export the glossy, surreal genre to neighboring countries and now the world. Being the first Korean celebrity to garner two million Twitter followers might have brought on an ego transformation of gigantic proportions, but this superstar firmly adheres to his religious roots and even plans to become a missionary. Here he talks to VMAN about keeping the faith.”
Furthermore, Perez Hilton‘s fashion-focused website ‘Cocoperez‘ covered the shoot as well saying, “VMAN gets all the hotties! For their Fall issue, Karl Lagerfeld photographed Korea’s K-Pop prince Siwon Choi! In these pics the singer-slash-model is featured in dark shadowy rooms, giving this whole spread a very raw and seductive feel, in a Jack-drawing-Rose-on-the-Titanic way.”
