Personally, watching Cityhall and The Greatest Love back to back, I still prefer Cityhall though The greatest Love is more lighthearted but somehow the lead actress Gong Hyo Jin isnt very appealing to me, so it somewhat muted the likeability of the show for me.

Started on the series without knowing a thing about it and it was decent enough to keep me glued till the last episode.
Acting wise is still pretty raw and amateurish. It's not that bad but just that you can tell that they are more like delivering the lines than an actual conversation. That said, the drama was shot in a slightly more manga love Nomadhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/11014430751120804593noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5112615808933167997.post-83102625550368796902012-11-27T00:50:00.000+08:002012-11-27T00:50:13.081+08:00Dramas for the month..Nov 2012Sorry guys...been a long while.

To be frank, while I like Yamapi and usually likes his series, yet I have to say this is NOT his best work and I'm not impressed.

It's getting harder to blog because I havent spent much time watching anything until recently!
I have stayed off Korean drama for a long time since Secret Garden. I watched one called Fashion King and it was so utterly stupid & absurd that I was cursing myself for wasting time on that piece of crap drama.

If you dont already know it, the Taiwanese version of "Absolute Boyfriend" aka Zettai Kareshi is currently airing under the name of "Absolute Darling" in Mandarin.

Now that I have got that adoration over Junpei out, I will say the movie sucks. If I thought "Paradise" was sucky, this manga adaption is even worse....

Personally... Not bad, but not great drama either. The food looks good but the presentation is more of Japanese variation of French food than the actual French cusine I had eaten...
