As most know the Taiwanese rendition of "Absolute Boyfriend" was originally suppose to star Wu Chun and Goo Hye Sun. While Goo Hye Sun is still attached, Chun has dropped out and the drama is once again in limbo and are still searching for their male lead. One speculation is that Chun is clearing out his schedule for his big break into the movie industry. According to Chun's manager, he had dropped out not because he" "doesn't want to act. It's because the script isn't good yet We have no clue when they will start filming and there is no set broadcast date. We are dropping out right now because we are worried that the schedule will not fit well (with Chun's movie)."

Though nothing is completely set in stone yet, there have been reports that GTV has been keyed up over the fact that he will drop out and rumors say that they might be looking towards the law. Since GTV has been cultivating Chun all this time, many have been surprised by what is happening on both sides. When the producer was asked about this situation, he showed a bit of anger saying, "Why doesn't he want to act? There are many reasons, but using the script is not right. Everyone has already said they would act already, and if he was dissatisfied with the script, then we can change it so that he is satisfied with it."

Paradise Ranch

What I love most in watching Korean drama is their family relationships. Most of the Korean dramas I've seen expressed the importance of family in our lives and for having a close-knit family ties. This drama is one of those though it's main story is about a young couple who got married and got divorced.

Paradise drama is a bright romantic drama which leave me satisfied after finishing the full 16 episodes. There are scenes that moved me and made me teary-eyed but it's not a heavy drama that will make you cry bucket of tears. I admired the families of both main characters. They really love their children that it hurts them more when their children got divorced and seen how miserable they are after the break-up. So, I can't blame them for opposing in Han Dong Joo and Lee Da Ji's reconciliation. The good thing is these kids now an adult have learned their lessons. After six years of seperation Han Dong Joo and Lee Da Ji found out that they still love each other and want to remarry but at this time they consider and waited for their families approval first. :) This drama conveyed a good lessons to the viewer.

Jang Geun Seuk and Jo In Sung brothers?!

When I’ve seen the trailer of "You’re Beautiful" I excitedly exclaimed…"hey, it’s the guy from the movie Love of South and North and The Classic!" I really thought it was Jo In Sung but it was Jang Geun Seuk. Oh, is that so? I even asked, maybe JGS is JIS younger brother? Hehehe… :D I was amazed with the resemblance. Nevertheless, they’re both pretty guys. But JIS is older than JGS. And I still watched "You’re Beautiful" even if it’s not JIS. :) Check out these photos, tell me if you agree or disagree?

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. He told Sumire that he'll do anything she wanted so he could stay at her house. Jokingly, she said that he could stay if he becomes her pet. To her surprise, he agrees. She named him Momo, her childhood pet dog.
