Summers,Autumns,Secret Garden

annyeong! it's review time!

since i don't have anything to do and i don't have a job during my holiday, i spent weeks reading books and watching korean dramas. yeah, i've been into k-waves lately, k-pop and k-dramas are things that i'm really into. but first, i want to review one of the book i read.

9 SUMMERS 10 AUTUMNS by Iwan Setyawan

this is really an inspiring book. it tells about a boy who struggle to survive in life to get a better living for him and his family. the story is really touching, i love how he write the story, he tells it in a flash back plot. in my opinion, i'm not really satisfied with the whole story, because i expect him to write more about how did he get the chance to work in New York (in a more specific and detailed story). i'm also curious about the little boy in his story, who is it? is he just the writer's imagination or is he really alive?
but in all, i like this book. although there are several stories like this, such as laskar pelangi, i still love to know about other people's way to get their dreams :)

moving on.. to the next review..

so i've told you that i'm really into k-dramas, and as you already know, i would like to review one of my favorite drama so far. yaaay!

SECRET GARDEN

The drama tells the story of Kim Joo Won (Hyun Bin), an arrogant and eccentric CEO who maintains the image of seeming perfection, and Gil Ra Im (Ha Ji Won), a poor and humble stuntwoman whose beauty and body are the object of envy amongst top actresses. Their accidental meeting, when Joo Won mistakes Ra Im for actress Park Chae Rin, marks the beginning of a tense, bickering relationship, through which Joo Won tries to hide a growing attraction to Ra Im that both confuses and disturbs him. To complicate matters further, a strange sequence of events results in them swapping bodies. Source: DramaWiki

yeah, i'm not really good in putting words into a story so i just copied the synopsis from other website. sorry ;)

well, i really really really like this drama! yeah, altough the story categorized as fantasy, i still love it! it has a great story and really entertaining as well.
this drama successfully make me laugh and cried at 2 in the morning (yeah, i stay up late because i can't stop watching it) you SHOULD watch it if you're into k-dramas.

BONUS! since BIGBANG and SECRET GARDEN are my favorite, this is a combo for you. BIGBANG SECRET GARDEN PARODY. supeerrr funny!

K-drama over Sinetron

lately, I've been observing why i love k-dramas more than Indonesian drama, which most Indonesian called it Sinetron. well, there are numerous reason why i love k-dramas in first place.

SINETRON

1. it has mostly more than 100 episodes for a single drama.
2. the storyline, most of the time is boooorriiiinngg.
3. the protagonist cast cried every episode.
4. they shoot every episode in a same place. whether the hospital scene, airport scene and others are shot in a same place.
5. i think, the cast are not really that "good looking".
6. most of the cast cannot act the way they supposed to.thus, you can't feel what that person feels.
7. the story always about a girl who has a never-ending miserable life around vicious people. how could that be possible???
8. the teenage sinetron stories are mostly about girls fighting over a boy who's not really that good anyway -_-

K-DRAMA

1. mostly it has 16-30 episode for a single drama.
2. the storyline is fascinating, always makes me exited to see the next episode.
3. if there's a sad scene, it mostly touch my heart and i cried over it.
4. the scenery always amazed me. if there's a scene where they should go to an island, they're really shoot it there.
5. the male and female cast are mostly good looking :D6. for me, the cast are well-suited with their role.
7. the story is never about a miserable girl who always crying over her miserable life. sometimes it inspiring.
8. the words they are using are appropriate. they never shouted like : "gilaaa! guweeehh benci banget sama cewek kegatelan itu. dia ngerebut pacaar guweeehh! gelaa ga sihh?! OMG!"

this is just my opinion, so no offense. i appreciate those who loves Sinetron anyway :)


this has nothing to do with the topic, but this is big. T.O.P of BIGBANG goes blonde!
*yay or nay?*
