I just started watching a Korean drama series called IRIS. It seems pretty decent. The reason I started watching it was because Kim Tae-hee is in it
, but also because the trailer looked pretty good. The main character is played by Lee Byung-hun, who you might recognize from the movie Joint Security Area. There’s also T.O.P. from the boy band Big Bang who plays a rivalling assassin.
It’s about a (fictional) secret government organization in Korea that deals with anything that has to do with protecting the nation - assassinations and the like. So, it’s basically an action drama, but there’s also a love triangle there. […] there’s more! »
Here’s another video where Tae-yeon of Girls’ Generation performs the theme song of Beethoven Virus. Once again accompanied by Seo-hyun on the piano.

I came to a halt in watching You Are My Destiny when I reached some episodes I hadn’t been able to download. Luckily there’s mysoju.com, where you can stream the drama.
Now I’ve watched those episodes and I can once again watch the downloaded videos. Let’s celebrate with a couple of wallpapers
I still love this drama. It has some negative points though. For example, the drama is pretty crudely edited. Sometimes you’re thrown into a scene where they refer to a previous scene that has been deleted. Like when […] there’s more! »

Right now I’m watching a Korean drama series called You are my destiny/You are my life (너는 내 운명). The main story is about a girl, called Sae-byeok, who was blinded but got her vision back thanks to a cornea transplant. She finds out who the donor was and wants to thank her family, only to find out that not everyone knows that Na-yeong (the donor) has died. The drama ensues.
I started watching this drama because Yoon-a from Girls’ Generation is in it. She plays Sae-byeok. She’s been in a few drama series, but this was the one I found first. The series is 178(!) episodes long (that’s even longer than Be strong, Geum-soon), but the episodes are only 30 minutes long.
I like this drama for similar reasons as why I liked Be Strong, Geum-soon: the main character (Sae-byeok in this case) maintains a positive outlook on things although she gets into all kinds of trouble. There is plenty of romance and […] there’s more! »
My favourite Girls’ Generation girl at the moment is Tae-yeon. Here she’s performing the song Can You Hear Me (들리나요) from the soundtrack of the Korean drama series Beethoven Virus.
Seo-hyun is playing the piano.
I’ve just uploaded 80 pictures of Korean actress Han Hye-jin (한혜진) to the gallery. I started at 300 and tried to select only a few. At 80 I gave up
Hye-jin is the star of the drama Be Strong Geum-soon that I’m currently watching on DVD. It’s a great drama.
I recently wrote about the Korean drama series Be Strong Geum-soon that YA Entertainment has released with English subtitles. It’s only available in the US, but I got a hold of the first volume on eBay. I got it last week and I’ve watched 14 episodes so far.
The episodes […] there’s more! »
YA Entertainment has now released the first 3 volumes (of 4) of the Korean drama Be Strong , Geum-soon with English subtitles. The first volume was released in June and consists of the first 41(!) episodes. I don’t know much about the drama, but it stars Han Hye-jin, whom I just love. I’ve been eyeing this drama before, but there was no release with English subtitles. I think I’m going to order the first box and see how it is. I hope it’s good, but at the same time, if it is, it will cost me a small fortune to buy all the boxes
However, these boxes only appear on YesAsia’s US pages, not on the global ones, which is why I missed that they’d come out. I’m not sure why, I’ll ask them.
update: Argh!! It’s only sold within North America! I guess they’re strict about the copyright since it’s their own brand, but almost all items I buy from YesAsia are only licenced for sale in Asia (not Europe) and that’s not a problem.
Here’s the reply I got: […] there’s more! »
