You are My Pet, Jang Geun Seuk!

 

Jang Geun Seuk

As I was browsing the internet and came across with an article that it was confirmed that the Japanese drama Kimi Wa Petto will be made into Korean movie 'You are My Pet'. Actor Jang Geun Seuk (You're Beautiful, Mary Stayed Out All Night) will play the role of Momo, the pet and Kim Ha Neul (On Air, Road No. 1) will be Iwaya Sumire. Filming will begin on May and will take place in Korea and Japan.

"You can stay if you become my pet."

Kimi Wa Petto was the second Jdrama that I was delighted to watch. This is quite an odd story but it was indeed entertaining. If you're a Matsumoto Jun fan this is must watch. I was kind of surprised seeing Matsumoto Jun from being a hot-tempered and arrogant Domyougi Tsukasa in Hana Yori Dango into a submissive and cute pet Momo. He's really cute in this drama specially when he's imitating all kinds of dog poses. :D Submissive pose is the cutest. Hihihi... :)

It's just scares me if I'm Iwaya Sumire (Koyuki) and found an unconscious man lying inside a box...I definitely wouldn't bring him inside my house. What if he's already dead? Then I'll be a suspect? No way! What if he's a murderer or even a rapist? Ewww... but if it's Matsumoto Jun? I'll reconsider. Hahahaha... :D

While watching this drama, the thought of having my own Momo crossed to my mind. Wouldn't it be nice to have your own Momo? :D

Feeling sorry for him, she takes him into her house and nurses him back to health. As the young man (Matsumoto Jun) gets better he begins to like her place and decided not to leave.

"Since when was it? That you hid your beautiful face under the guise of a man."

Sungkyunkwan Scandal is a historical Korean drama with a mixture of romance and comedy. I was energized to watch this drama after seeing those charming actors with their lovable characters. Everyone of them have interesting characters and stories and every episodes are truly exciting. Hmnn...how could there be a group of friends who has it all? Good looking and intelligent guys. Ops! Except for one...he's not a guy, he's a she. And that's what the story makes it all exciting. Hihihi... :D Hiding her true identity from everybody and even falling in love with one of her roommates who happened to be the last one to know that she's not a real boy. And what could a girl ask for when those good looking guys get attracted to you though you dressed up like one of them. Woosshh! :D

I have lots of favorite scenes in this drama. One of those was in their room in the university when they already found out that Kim Yoon Hee (Park Min Young) is a girl. Lee Sun Joon (Micky Yoochun) and Moon Jae Shin (Yoo An In) were arguing who'll sleep beside Kim Yoon Hee. Hahaha...that scene was hilarious. I'm still smiling when I remember it. :D



The bed fight scene.  Who's gonna sleep beside Kim Yoon Hee? :D



And of course, there's a lot of romantic scenes between Lee Sun Joon and Kim Yoon Hee. I loved it when Lee Sun Joon puts a series of love notes in the books of the library and one of the student almost got and read the last one. He immediately grabs the book and said that he needs it. Hehehe...so much for being sweet. :D

Library scene and the sweet love notes. ;)

It was the playboy Goo Yung Ha (Son Joong Ki) who got attracted to her first then it was the rebellious Moon Jae Shin who protected her when he found out that she was a girl. But the upright Lee Sun Joon also fell for her despite of that he thinks she's a boy. So, he thought he was a gay. The sweet and yet emotional part of it was when Lee Sun Joon confessed his feelings towards Kim Yoon Hee even though he still thinks she's a boy and told her that he won't burden her with his feelings and that he will leave hastily from her side in order to protect her reputation...as rumors are spreading. But when he found out that she's a girl, he immediately return to Sungkyunkwan University to fought and protect his love. Aww...isn't romantic? ;)

Who's Your "Absolute Boyfriend"?

Another version of Japanese Manga "Absolute Boyfriend" (Zettai Kareshi) is not yet airing and I'm so looking forward into it. The character of Izawa Riiko will be played by Goo Hye Sun (Boys Over Flower) and Wu Chun (Hana Kimi) will be the robot, Tenjo Night. Wait! Wu Chun is Taiwanese actor right? So, will it be Korean or Taiwanese version? Hmmn...

Anyway, Wu Chun will be acting as Night and that excites me even more. ;) Hayami Mokomichi was the robot in Japanese version.  I saw these photos and can't help myself to compare this two guys/robot...

So far for these photos...Wu Chun is my "Absolute Boyfriend" I'll just have to wait and see how's his potrayal of a perfect, ideal, humanoid boyfriend. How about you? :D

 

How did Joe Cheng fell in love with Ariel Lin in "They Kiss Again"?

Usually, in a series or a movie with love stories, they'll start not likng each other or a one-sided love and as the story goes on they'll both fell in love with each other. In "They Kiss Again", Zhi Shu (Joe Cheng), having an IQ of 200, attractive and popular...what he could possibly saw in Xiang Chin (Ariel Lin)? What does Xiang Chin have that Zhi Shu couldn't resist her and fell in love with her? This question of mine was answered...it's in episode 17 if I'm not mistaken. :)

Zhi Shu and his brother Yu Shu was in a room when Yu Shu asked Zhi Su why did he chose a dumb girl like Xiang Chin to be his wife...what does he saw in her? Zhi Su then explained: "It was like she had cast a magic spell. Like a broken record, she kept telling me that she loved me...it was so annoying. But when this became a regular part of my life and I took it for granted, she suddenly told me she didn't love me anymore. I can still clearly remember the nauseating feeling I had when she said that. I should have been relieved, but that didn’t seem to be the case. In this world I can do 90% of the things she cannot do. The remaining 10%, she can do that I cannot do, she can do it in a way that no one else can. It is mostly because of that she touched me."

Aww...I melted right away after watching that scene. So, he isn't perfect as what everybody seems to think of him. He needs someone like Xiang Chin to complete his life...he needs that 10% and it could only be given by Xiang Chin.

So, how about you? How many percent do you have and do you need in your partner in able to complete the 100%? ;)
