im knee deep, no, waist deep in a korean drama sob fest with my mum. well technically im quite distracted (or cynical) cos i know THE GIRL IS GOING TO DIE. its so depressing. all movies/shows should have happy endings! thats what entertainment is about, what. who pays to make oneself miserable? but. in comparison to singaporean/taiwanese dramas, the korean actors are really infinitely better. its actually quite convincing.. until the everyone-is-dying-or-crying plot sets in. the show's called 'The Snow Queen'.
its about this guy (very hot) who's very poor but a maths genius and becomes best friends with a rich genius in high school. then he wins this rich guy in this international olympiad thing and the rich guy couldnt take it and commits suicide. plauged by guilt he runs aways from home and lives a vagrant life for 8 years. then he meets this girl and realises she is the girl from his childhood AND the best friend's kid sister. so they are tormented by the brother's death until they decide to get together in the end despite parental objection. THEN she realises she's terribly ill and at this point on my tv screen, she has died.
here he is! he is such a good (and did i say gorgeous?) actor. okay enough of my useless rambling review of a korean drama. i wanna pick up more korean though. i would love to wander down the streets of korea and converse with the stall owners in fluent korean. and of course, the yummy yummy korean food.
sometimes, i really wonder if i live in lala land.
