Ang bagal ko na sobra. Super daming distraction. Haha. Baliktad na. Trabaho na ang distraction at kdrama na ang priority. For the second quarter of this year, just finished three kdramas and one US series.
Twenty-Five Twenty-One
💜💜💜💜💜
Super cute story. Well, it started out as a cute teenybopper romance but later on became more serious as they got older and entered new stages in their lives. These days I live for feel-good romcom dramas but if you knew me way baaaack then, I used to like tragic love stories. Hindi naman ako natutuwa na hindi sila nagkakatuluyan o may namamatay, but there's something beautiful in tragic love stories- yung F na F mo sakit, cathartic baga.
I loved the relationships among the characters- between Hee-do and Yi-jin, between Yu-rim and Ji-woong, Hee-do and Yu-rim, and their friendship in general.
I loved how Hee-do and Yu-rim's relationship has evolved from fan and idol turned rivals turned close friends. I liked Yu-rim and Ji-woong's relationship has blossomed over time- in fair kay kuya, matiyaga siya. And last but not the least- Hee-do and Yi-jin's relationship >> spoiler alert << may not have stood the test if time, but theirs was beautiful while it lasted. Although I think sayang yung friendship nila, hence the question whether best/good friends should cross that line.
Beautiful Gong-shim

It started out good but towards the end, medyo 'meh' na siya.
This kdrama has 20 episodes and I feel there were many scenes they could have done without. This drama would be totally fine with just the usual 16 episodes.
My favorite and most abhorred characters were, surprisingly, not the leads. Gongshim was endearing at first, but started to annoy me towards the end kasi wala lang annoying lang siya. Anyway... my favorite character is Jun-su. Umpisa pa lang he's been this very kind and down-to-earth chaebol, very different from his parents. I felt sorry for him that his halmone has been treating him with disregard just because she feels he's the reason why Jun-pyo vanished- malay ba ng bata! I was actually conflicted, I know I should root for the male lead but I really really want our second lead, Jun-su, to get the girl. And also, been wishing and hoping that he doesn't turn to the dark side- which he almost did, buti na lang natauhan.
My most abhorred character is not the evil uncle, actually. Eto ay si Gongmi, Gongshim's older sister. Ang inggitera, kaloka! I mean, why would you be okay with turning your sister's room into a walk-in closet and have her sleep in it? Kadiri. Also, she tried to "steal" Jun-su away from Gongshim. Buti na lang si kuya hindi mabilis masilaw ng patpat, hahaha 😂 She apologized to Jun-su, but not to her sister. Walang character development- selfish pa rin hanggang sa huli. Kung ako lang, she doesn't deserve a happy ending although masyado naman atang harsh 'yun so she doesn't deserve Jun-su na lang.
Shooting Stars
💜💜💜💜
Nakakilig. And you know me, I live for kilig. Always. I can always suspend disbelief when it comes to kilig.
When I started watching this kdrama, I didn't even know who are the actors in it. Lo and behold, it's this guapo boy 💗
I found out from google that cutie male lead was also the cutie sungit boy from Penthouse. His cuteness wasn't enough to make me watch the second and third seasons of Penthouse- too nega and, actually, too Probinsyano-ish. LOL. So anyway, eto nagtagpo na kami ulit and in better circumstances- in a romcom!
Soooo, ayun I liked this drama most especially the first half of it. Mas kinikilig talaga ako when it's a love-hate relationship between the leads 😁 Giddiness galore!
Just wondering if big stars really get into relationships with employees or staff in their agency, or at least find them interesting. Feeling ko hindi.
My takeaway from this drama is the same as my takeaway from Record of Youth- mahirap mag-date ng artista, a top star at that. Actually in their case, it's easier. Oh Han-byeol has been going to Tae-sung's house even before, but now kasi there's guilt factor. But still, it's easier. They can always say it's PR-related. Dramas like this one is for us delulus, LOL.We should know lang when to snap out of it ;)
Only three dramas- THREE! I promise to make bawi this third quarter before the Christmas season kicks in this September. As of press time (naks!), I'm almost done with Kiss Sixth Sense and am currently watching Extraordinary Attorney Woo which is still ongoing. What is productivity? 😅
