interdependent

in recently months/years, ive come to learn more about my obsessive nature. it’s probably the obsessive-compulsive disorder (ocd) that everyone talks about. but i seriously get addicted/sucked into one particular thing once i start on it. if it’s a korean drama, i HAVE to finish it, even if it means i dont get to sleep till 9am. the same goes for sudoku (and killer sudoku) and many other random stupid games. maybe it’s the recognition of this ocd that deters me from wanting to learn/know new things. but on the other hand, it might be just an excuse for being lazy.

i was hooked onto the korean drama “a star’s lover” just a while back. and by a while, i meant 5 days ago. it’s 20 episodes long and i’ve already watched it twice. albeit the second time was the fast forwarded version. i started on thursday night and watched 9 episodes till 8 in the morning. then i continued on friday night where i finished the remaining 12 episodes at 9am. sometimes i wonder if i’m the only crazy person who does this. but i hope not. dont wanna feel screwed alone.

but the show was really good!

choi ji won was the lead actress and she was really pretty and elegant. she had quite a bit of act cute scenes that sometimes made me cringe, but i can absolutely forgive them. and since im a sucker for sappy-ness, her tears make her even more endearing to me. and her character’s persistence in pursuing the man of her dreams is so attractive.

and the lead actor was yoo ji tae. he was kinda the reason i even searched out this drama. well kinda. i actually have ABSOLUTELY no idea who he is before this drama. and the real reason i searched out for this drama was that i thought the lead guy in dae jang geum (his name is actually ji jin hee). and yoo ji tae actually looked a lil ugly at some times. but like most korean actors, he started to grow on me. and the aloofness, intellect and sporadic episodes of passion just swept me off my feet. and did i mention he wears this pair of really ah pek specs that makes him so smart and hot? totally fulfills my fetish for hot guys in glasses.

the chemistry between the two leads was just phenomenal. they didnt feel distant and unfamiliar with each other. instead, they really felt like a couple. the way they laughed at random stuff. the way their eyes expressed a desperate desire for each other. and the way she’s so not shy when he’s so shy. i told my boyfriend that it totally reminded me of when we started dating.

damn. just writing this makes me wanna watch it again.

the show wasnt all that good too though. it had a magical start. got really really really dragging in the middle. but ended really nicely. it has one of the best endings ive seen in a long while. at least it’s an ending that left me satisfied and ugly.

and ive a qualms against the child actors dramas like to use. the child actors used to depict the lead characters are always so cute/pretty! but the offsprings of the lead characters are always so UGLY!

okie. when i start rambling about random stuff like these i really dont know how to end the post. so i shall just abruptly end it now.
