i love my lovely samsoon!

i expected myself to have time to read an entire book during the hols..

but i've found something more alluring :X MY LOVELY SAMSOON aka MY NAME IS KIM SAM SOON! thanks to QiuLin, who lent me the VCDs :D

i started out really slow. like 1 or 2 episodes a day.. but once i was halfway through the show.. i started to CHIONG it for the sake of completing it cos i was so into the show by then X_X i just HAD to know what the ending was (without playing cheat!)

anyway, more about the show.. i thought it was another one of those sobby operas that most korean shows are known for (basically that's what i heard about korean shows). but i was laughing all the way, and feeling frustrated each time the lead actor turned his back on the lead actress not because he doesn't like her, but its because i think he doesn't know that he does. this shows that rich guys really can be snobbish and mean :X LOL. this show displays the possibly confusing side of love. one minute its sweet and the next thing you know, it hurts. it really sorta is a funny love story and that in itself is worth the watch. i love the fact that all the leads have jobs. in most movies (esp those hollywood ones -.-), it seems like people are too free and rich: they don't have to work and they have a huge house, money and a love life. i only cried at the end, the very last episode, when samsoon met her father (who passed away already) in her dream. she said she felt that she was toooo fortunate and she started to tear and i teared with her -.-. the fact that she was able to reach the day that she can feel that she is TOO fortunate.. and the fact that she was able to reach that day when she actually REALISES and KNOWS that she is too fortunate.. they just make me feel that samsoon is soooo freaking humble & she really knows how to count her blessings. something that i don't always know how to do or do often. X_X

oh gawd i am going crazy over it :X:X:X re-watching it in Korean even (with mandarin subtitles of course!), and they definitely sound much better speaking in korean!!! No to dubs! for once, i actually wish i had a better command of Mandarin. HOHO~~ & i am in love with the lead actor in the show :X he plays SamShik & he is so charming :X i like his hair when its not gelled up, his mole that's by the side of his face :X and his small eyes.. kyooote and boyish :X and he usually wears a jacket (the formal suit kind) to work.. and i have a thing for guys who look good in those kinda jackets and ringer tees as well. :X plus he has a clean look. & he speaks gently & sings to his niece in the show *aww*. hmm~ why is it that we don't see guys like that in real life? (please exclude the ah pehs) & s'porean guys only wear things like adidas jackets x_X. anyway, i even specially downloaded a pic of him to put as my MSN avatar (display pic)!!!! hmm and i kinda think he looks like the korean jay chou :X some people call him Hyun Bin but some spell it is Hyeon Bin. so i'm not sure which is which o.o but i can't stop thinking of him and when i do i smile to myself like a dope. i know its stupid! the last time i went crazy over some idol was in sec 1? X_X!!!

and i'm soooo impressed by Kim Sun Ah (the name of the actrees who plays kim sam soon). she studied music (piano) and she can speak fluent japanese!!! she acted really well. i have no idea how someone who is actually NOT in any way TOOT can act like she is the TOOTest being on this earth. from the way she walks and eats to the things she says!

i kinda regret watching it :X cos i've turned into a madwoman because of it. i've never been this happy while i'm suffering from a lack of sleep (a chosen action). cos the process of watching this entire drama reminds me of the process of watching the anime Bleach! its like a rewind.. X_X i used to watch 15-20 episodes of bleach a day cos i had approximately 90 episodes for me to watch. and like bleach, i never wanted MNIKSS to end!!

i love the soundtrack too :X somebody please save me. i can't get the whole thing outta my mind~~
