crazy cruel craving


If you asked me about any local or current soaps showing on tv.. I probably don't know and I could careless to know... my craving is the one and only with Kore@n soaps... I know it sounded so 'ancient' or maybe because it's been forgotten nowadays since the Winter Son@t@ made its debut.. no other Kore@n soap could outrun that story.. that's for sure.. it became such a phenomenal and hit tremendously in malaysia.. I believed that's the turning point of Kore@n drama in malaysia.. although I wasn't here at that time around to witness the anticipation..

at first, I wasn't into this soap thingy at all... just out of curiosity, I wonder what is so special about this series anyway.. my sister managed to borrow the CD from her friend.. so I'm very determined to watch and to complete the series at one go.. and I did .. since I have nothing to do at home.. still jobless at that time... after that, I became sort of addicted to Kore@n series.. I guess they have several 'X' factors which influenced me to watch them all... first of all, they don't have that vulgar love scene to sell.. secondly, they rely heavily on the drama itself.. for me, the line spoken sometimes is mind-blowing.. I never thought that it can be delivered beautifully.. so that makes the script was very well-written.. thirdly, their attitude and behavior are so polite and so gentle.. compare to us.. I'm talking about their courteous mannerism toward others i.e. driver to pedestrian.. that courteousness and politeness culture reflect their's daily life.. but how about us? we always said that it is part of our culture.. nonetheless, we did get a little jumpy when one of the survey result found out that we're not even 50% up to the courtesy standard.. for moi however, I'd kind of fall for that.. because it is very true.. it never reflects our manner.. and it never shows in our daily life... I know you would argue that it were all just acting.. but I've been to the lovely country.. and for me, I believed that some of the acting were true.. although not 100%.. of course.. and finally, they have young talented handsome actors and beautiful actresses to ogle at.. hehehe..

right now, I'm watching 'Cruel Love' at KBS world.. every Monday and Tuesday from 9pm to 10.15pm.. I preferred to hear them speak in Kore@n language.. rather than hearing voice over in Cantonese.. it is just so annoying.. I wanted to hear the actor's/actress's original voice.. not someone else's voice whom I don't know.. so if you're interested.. let's us make date on mon and tues then..
