10 of Must Watch KDrama - Part 1

tup tap tup tap, dah tinggal 9 hari before aku n rakan3 ke seoul..part of me..am excited, whilst another part..am not..yelah dgn keja menimbun yg aku pasti tak dpt siapkan before departure, sape yg ske kan2? konfem akan ade berjuta miss call n email nnt..hauhlaaa

tp keja tu biarkan je dulu, sbb aku mmg dah mood nak bercuti..so harinie nak warming upkan diri dgn entri pasal 10 kdrama yg aku rasa patut ditonton oleh korang (list tak termasuk sungkyunkwan scandal and secret garden yg aku tk smpt tgk lagi)

mesti tonton = ost yg best + plot yg menarik (maybe cliche or stereotype dgn cara penceritaan yg berlainan) + hero n heroin with good chemistry + cite yg buat anda teringat2 sekurang2 nye selama seminggu and paling penting happy ending. (itu sbb utama aku prefer kdrama than jdrama)

1. Full House

Young-jae teaching Ji-eun how to ride the bicycle during their 'honeymoon' at Phuket

Aku terjumpe cite nie masa kat UTP, mase tgh mencari cite2 best utk ditorrent..bile dh tgk satu episode..berlanjutan ke episod seterusnya, tau2 aku dah marathon 16 episod dlm masa sehari setengah kot. Drama nie lakonan Rain, dan Song Hye Kyo (autumn in my heart). Plot utama pasal contract marriage between an actor and a writer. Awalnya bagai nak rak gaduh..lame2 jadi  konflik cinta 4 segi plak. aku rasa pas cite nie kuar, dan2 cite cinta kontrak laa kawin kontrak laa kuar cam cendawan pas ujan..kebetulan??

Selain drp plot, lagu2 cite nie pun best. Recommended: Oon Myung - Why and Byul - I Think (both are my personal preferences too)

2. Princess Hours

Chae Kyung being obsessed with the back of her husband, Crown Prince Lee-Shin

Till todate, cite nie dah diulang tgk hampir 10 kali.Cite nie abit slow paced with 24 episodes, tp the story adelah sgt meninggalkan kesan. Still mcm perkahwinan kontrak, but this time more to perkahwinan diaturkan diantara kerabat diraja n org biasa. Main cast are Joon Ji Hoon (he's the crown prince) and Yoon Eun Hye (the commoner). Memandangkan both are still at college so both are immatured and most of the time when "they were together, ade je mcm2 jadi. But in the end, the unspoken love between both of them which had caused most of the problems to occur. 

the story had a nice balance of sad and sweet moments. nevertheless, just have a box of tissue nearby, will be handy in case ..

Recommended ost; J&Howl - Perhaps Love and Nan Nul Saranghae Nuhman Saranghae II by Shim Tae Yoon

3. My Girl 

first kdrama aku tgk dgn mak and adik2 aku sampai 3 pagi, semata2 nak abiskan sume 16 episod. dlm sehari. chemistry between Lee Da Hae (Yoo Rin) and Lee Dong Wook (Gong Chan) sgtlaa believable. jalan cite not too cliche. Main plot mengenai Gongchan upah Yoo rin jadik sepupu die yg kononnye dicari oleh datuk dia. Keadaan pada awalnye ok as sume masih terkawal, but then when love and ex lover come in, mcm2 jadi.Mmg menarik sbb buat penonton tertanye, ape jadi ek pas nie? tuh yg tak dpt nak tangguh terpaksa abiskan sume.

Recommended ost: Never Say Goodbye by Mario &Nesty and Lim Jae Wan - Alone

4.CoFFee PrinCe

Main cast at the 1st floor of the coffee shop

the main reasons why i loved this kdrama? 1. Gong Yoo 2. Eun Hye 3. Superb OST   Story revolves around Eun chan (Eun Hye) yg berpura2 jadi lelaki semata2 sebab nak kerja di cafe milik Han kyul (Gong Yoo) and as their relationships develop dr kawan jadi cinta, keadaan jadi tak terkawal as Han kyul totally believed that he had fall in love with a guy and as his rationally thinking that this is totally wrong, his heart said otherwise. hahaha. so who wins? the heart or the brain?

Recommended - BELLE EPOQUE - May, Casker - Mocha, The Melody - Goodbye, As One - White Love Story

5. Que Sera Sera

"i'm getting married" - credit to Hancinema.net

As claimed by Dramafever.com:

Que Sera Sera is one of the most passionate, violent and twisted dramas of all times. This series is about emotional abuse, the notion that love is a zero-sum game and that sometimes, you can even buy love

100% agreed. enuff said. but still i rewatch this becoz of eric mun and i just love the intensity of the drama.

recommended ost: Wolgwang ("Moonlight") - W & Whale  and Night Time - Alex of Clazziquai

(p/s: i had a migraine after marathon this drama within 2 days. thus to avoid one, stay at one/two episodes per day)

that's all for now.. another 5 coming soon...

Movie Review : Eclipse

feeling dejavu? guess what? me feeling the same too! So, the truth was, last saturday after submitting the report to bursa, i accompanied my mum to jalan2 at KLCC to make up all the weekends that i didnt spent with mum..so our first stop was the tgv..after contemplating on whether to watch the sorcerer's apperantice or salt, it just struck me that mum had always been talking about the sequel of twilight..but wait, i'd watched eclipse..but then..the idea of having another session drooling over Edward and shirtless Jacob was too good to be put aside, soo..i bought the tickets..

as we had plenty of time before the show, so we grab our fave brunch - pancakes and waffles with soothing hot honey lemonade before heading to the Galeri Petronas. We entertained ourselves by guessing the title of arts whilst commenting and appraising the arts (mcm laa we're the expert). then, we did the mum-must-do thingy, browsing for super adorable and cute gowns for Kasih, but unfortunately mum cant decide on which one to take, so she ended up buying nothing..YeaY!! << sorakan seorang anak yg jealous dgn niecenye sendiri..

i tot we had took our brunch, but mum said the brunch was not fulfilling enuff, so we had our lunch.ok now i was bit worried of whether i could stay awake all thru the movie.

well, turned out..i only watched the first 20 minutes of the show..before dozing off..and awake for the action parts and the shirtless Jacob in pain..hahahah

so..that's my eclipse review~ hehehe

Movie Marathon Review # 2 - Lagenda Budak Setan

Movie ke 2/3 yg aku tgk haritu..aku sebenarnya berbelah bagi nak tgk movie nie..sbb aku tau wpun lisa surihani sgt cantik, tp lakonan die still long way to go laa..n plus asik2 dgn farid kamil..bosan tgk combination berdua nie..tukar laa dgn org lain..byk lagi jejaka malaya dan singapura yg ade..(bak kate kwn aku..zul huzaimy ke..which is aku sgt setuju)

tp sbb aku tgk trailernye nampak menarik (aku mmg mudah dimanipulasi dgn trailer2)..dan ade fazura dan que haidar plus sahabat aku, sue yg merupakan pembaca setia novel LBS nie nak sgt tgk cite nie..maka kami pilih movie nie utk marathon pada hari tu.

sinopsis cite nie sempoi. budak jahat jadi baik dlm masa 10 minit sbb jumpe pompuan cantik gile name ayu. then percintaan diorg menghadapi mcm2 halangan dan seperti dlm novel, ayu tu mati akhirnya.

logiknye, mmg tak mungkinlaa nak adapt at least 80% isi novel tu ke dlm filem nie. tp tajuk dan citenye tak bersesuaian. aku tak dpt tgk atau mendalami setakat mane kesetanan kasyah tu. sewajarnye ditukar tajuk "lagenda kasyah budak jiwang" atau "lagenda cinta ayu".

walaupun jalan cite agak berterabur dan suku hancur, kesinambungan kelam kabut, dialog yg tak mencengkam jiwa dan sepower spt dlm novel, tp adelaa satu kali tu, air mate aku ni jatuh..heheh.. tp tadeklaa sampai insiden tak cukup tisu spt diclaim oleh penonton2 lbs nie yg lain.

yg pasti sinematografi cite nie cantik..aku ske.. sape yg ske lisa surihani pun mesti ske gile (lupe nak mention, i'm not her fan, but i admit she's damn beautiful) sbb aku tgk movie nie ala2 small portfolio lisa..skit2 gamba lisa..skit2 super fokus kat lisa..haha dan seangkatan dgnnya

walaucamnepun, ini hanya pendapat aku, aku yg byk gile tgk movie2 romantic yg diadapt dr novel oleh penulis2 barat. aku yg nangis berkali2 walaupun dah tgk ayat-ayat cinta ke 5 kalinya.. bukan nak mengangkat karya luar. tp aku rase ade byk je bakat2 yg boleh buat novel cinta nie jd lebih hebat dan berkesan di jiwa penonton. dan mungkin expectation dan citarasa aku lain.

aku bg 2.5/5. tp kalo anda penyokong setia filem2 romantik tempatan, mungkin ratingnye adelah 3.5 atau 4/5..

movie marathon review #1 - Letters To Juliet

this was a romance movie with a simple plot but still managed to cause me to shed some tears. the main casts are Amanda Seyfried as Sophie, Vanessa Redgrave  as Claire and Christopher Egan as Charlie.

the story was about encountering new sparks and rekindling old flames.  How Sophie who are on a pre-honeymoon with a passionate pasta chef ends up helping out Claire to find her long lost love (50 years to be exact) and eventually Sophie ends up falling for Claire's grandson Charlie. Well, it is never too late to find true love, aite?

the movie also bundles up with great soundtrack and breathtaking landscape of Verona, Italy. 3.75/5

randomn rants

There are so many things running on my mind right now. Most are soon to be problems to me. First with the PTD assessment just around the corner, I barely made any preparation at all. Haven’t filled the forms, photocopy the cert (by the way, till today I still haven’t received the copy of the cert that I applied last two weeks!!), print new passport photos and homework on the ministries in govt. frankly, I am freaking nervous about going for the assessment, which I can’t explain why (hint: the possibilities of having an impromptu public speaking session)

Current audit assignment is making me stress! The downturn is, when I stress, I’ll eat more (unless if I got extra money right now, I would channeled my stress through retail therapy, but too bad, I’m quite broke right now!) As the client is unfamiliar with the interim  audit procedure, we had to wait for sometime before getting the answers for our queries and also the documents. And at the same time I wish I could be much firmer with the juniors esp, the guys! I just could not find the right way to coerce them to observe the audit schedule . Scolding them should be my last resort. For now, I am still able to control my temper. Thus, I had come up with this approaches so that I can effectively handle the team:

1. Ask them to submit their assigned sections to me at every two days, so that I can track their progress and at the same time I can review and comment on their working papers.
2. Instruct them to stay at the client’s place a bit longer than usual.
3.Indirectly reminded them to perform as I'll be appraising them later.

Let’s hope that I would not end up screaming at my team like any other audit senior tends to do.

angkatan jahanam . .

genre2 cite perang, sci-fi, dan yg seangkatan dgnnye bukan kegemaran aku. sbb kehidupan aku sendri pun dah cukup complicated..tk perlu aku peningkan kepala aku lg tgk cite camnie..tp haritu member aku ajak tgk cite "inglourious basterds"..aku pd awalnye mmg ragu2..tp aku cube bg peluang pade diri sendiri utk tgk movie nie..sumber kekuatan aku : quentin (had always been admiring his works)..

cite nie pasal zaman pemerintahan nazi hitler..around 1940s laa..dlm keghairahan org hitler nak menghapuskan kaum yahudi..ade satu kebangkitan yg cube melakukan yg sebaliknye iaitu dikenali "inglourious basterds"..kemuncak perjuangan mereka adalah apabila mereka mendapat tahu semua pemimpin tertinggi akan menghadiri premier tayangan filem di panggung wayang..perancangan pembunuhan beramai2 mule diatur..kegilaan disebalik pembikinan filem mengenai kejayaan seorang hitler membunuh hampir 300 org yahudi..dendam seorg pelarian yahudi setelah menyaksikan kematian ahli keluarganya..dan..tekad berani mati "angkatan jahanam" utk menghapuskan rejim pemerintahan fuhrer..sememangnye satu komedi gelap yg dpt digarap dgn baik..cume mungkin terlalu ganas kot..

head over heels . .

hari pertama puasa, aku tido most of the day. aku tau. makruh. tp aku mmg tatau nak buat ape lagi utk mengurangkan rasa sakit tekak, demam dan batuk. turut ditambah pula dgn sakit kepala. aku sakit kepala lagi kerana terlalu byk berpk benda2 yang tidak penting. antaranye adalah mengenai seseorg yg buat aku tak bape nak senang tido, makan dan keja sejak kebelakangan ni. bile dah nak petang, mak aku kejutkan. mintak tolong aku buat air tembikai dan goreng tauhu sambal. alhamdulillah semuanye sedap.

malam tu. aku tak terawih. tanak laa jangkitkan wabak yg melanda kat org lain. jdnye aku tgk mentalist.diikuti ceplos. diikuti grey's anatomy (btw..sape2 rase nak propose kat aku, kalo korang buat cam dr.shepard buat, mmg aku konfem terime korang sama ada utk jd gf/isteri la). aku terharu sbb akhirnya diorg akan kawin! . lepas grey's aku tgk bukan bidadari. drama yang org kate pelik dan jelik. tp realitinye. aku rase mmg byk terjadi. malas nak cite byk. sbb aku tak ske sgt dgn pelakon drama tu. pastu aku tgk britannica high. cite ala2 high school. diikuti singgah sahur. dan akhirnya cite yg dinanti2. head over heels.

aku igt lagi memori disebalik cite nie. mase tu dekat metana ke etana. aku kat bilik bestfren aku; Rina dan eja. aku rase pidah, lyn dan mawar pun ade kot. kami tgk cite nie beramai2.sape punye cd pun aku tatau. mmg layanlaa cite nie.1st sbb ade freddie prinze jr . keduanye plot cite menarik. ketiga sbb nie cite komedi romantik dgn sedikit sentuhan triler. keempat sbb gelagat model2 yg turut berlakon. sbb dah lame sgt tak tgk. so aku tgk cam baru 1st time tgk. sambil gelak sorang2.

movie nie pasal sorang minah nie duduk dgn 4 org model yg gile2. pada mase yg same. umah die bertentangan dgn umah sorang mamat hensem nie yg die ske. jadi hari2 heroin tu dan kawan2 die usha umah mamat tu. tujuannye nak cari ape kekurangan mamat tu. dan kebetulannye minah dan mamat nie jatuh cinta. tp satu hari tu heroin nampak hero bunuh org. pas tu. mcm2 laa benda yg kelaka+pelik+ sedih terjadi. cite nie happy ending. sbb tu aku layan.

sape2 yg kurang tahu. head over heels bermaksud dlm omputih - hopelessly, completely. contoh penggunaanye : "Nadia soon found herself head over heels in love with this guy." pape jelah.

how on earth zac efron could be cute, handsome and hunky at the same time? That's what i found out when i watched the movie last week. i watch the movie based on a recommendation of a fren. though a bit cliche in term of the hero got the chance to be young again, but there's turnaround when it comes to the plot. this light movie was suitable to be watch by the family and of course accompanied by parents for those under 12..;)

this was one of the ost from the movie..






p/s: drooling over zac efron!
