Kill Me Heal Me random ramble

I totally LOVE this drama.
Okay...they sure have some flaws here and there. But that doesn't stop me to cheering, bawling, cringing, laughing all the way with them. It have enough mysteries and interesting plot that make me keep tune in. In the beginning, I was a little skeptical about split-personalities plot. I watch it because of Ji-sung and Hwang Jung-eum reunion after Secret in the first place. And then.....they keep pulling me along the way *thank God for that*.
I even have my own poll corner on the personalities. Just for fun tho...

My newest addiction



오랜만이다
Its been a while since I wrote a post in this blog. Never find the right mood to write some. I have this 'spare' time or to be exact is time to kill today.
Today is Tuesday...and I am DYING to wait for Thursday to come. Technically, Kill Me Heal Me (KMHM) drama aired in Wednesday night, but I have to wait at least Thursday to have it online. 
I LOVE Korean drama since my college days and keep burning up till today. In the old days, we have to watch the subbed version in local television to filled our thirst for drama. Otherwise, we could buy CD and DVD's to get fastest and broader option of drama. No such things as streamline videos back then.
Many drama worth mentioning as my favorites such as Autumn in My Heart (yes...this one ALWAYS make me cried buckets), Stairway to Heaven, Secret Garden, Full House, Greatest Love, Gaksital (yay!!) and many more. My kind of genre are limitless, I could use a box of tissue while marathon-ing drama or pumped my fist on Vampire Prosecutor's fight scenes.
My recent drama was KHMM, so far...it really have potential to be one of my favorite drama. Ji-sung portrayed a man with split personalities. He has 7 (yes...seven) personalities. But no worries...he's far from Voldemort-like. I found all his personalities very engaging in certain way. Its interesting how this drama's plot works for each episodes. Love Ji-sung and Hwang Jung-eum, they are great actors. Their chemistry are not joke (they also sizzle in Secret tho).
I always end up screaming or squeeing at every Thursday episodes. I wish I have this kind of devotion to my own Theses lol. FIGHTING!!

Bridal Mask a.k.a Gaksital

One of my FAVOURITE MOVIE EVER!!!!!!

Just finished the drama less than a week ago. Only find this moment to share the joy i've got from watch this drama.

I really love to watch good korean drama. I put this drama under my GREAT drama categories.
First time hear about this drama is from javabeans, girlfriday and girls at DB. They reviewed it as one of the best k-drama in 2012. Gaksital was originally aired at KBS. But the main problem in Indonesia is: we updated our k drama episodes through internet. Local tv here rarely air updated k-drama...usually its aired waaaayyyy long after it broadcasted in Korea.

Back to Gaksital, when i watch first episode...truthfully...i don't read much about the storyline. All i know was Joo Won will potrait Gaksital or the Bridal Mask. First episode was intriguing and interesting as ever!! The show really good on making the first impression on the drama.

From the first episode to the final episode is one helluva journey!! DAEBAK!! Each episode is unravel a great story, amazing cast, and beautiful cinematography. And they ALWAYS cut the episode at the most tense moment that keep me figdeting and cant wait to continue to the next episode. I can imagine the tension between the aired episode in Korea.

Gaksital take set at early 1930 in Korea (or Joseon at that time). The storyline revolve around the people condition at that time, especially the movement againts Japan's occupation at Joseon. Joo Won is anti hero that turned to hero in the drama, lets just mention him as his character: Lee Kang-To.

What makes the drama great for me is the story and the characters is so rich...that makes you didn't even object about the long episode. I feel like...more is merrier!! When you watch the early episodes, you will HATE Kang-To...but surely end up LUUUUURRRRRVVVVVEEEE HIM!! Kang-To yaaaa!!

Other aspect that i love is its packed with great and amazing action scenes that shot beautifully awesome. The action scenes not the kind of 'arranged action', its really fits the drama reallu well. Will not forget the fashion parade...that should be mentioned here. I love the old fashion style, whether the suit and dress or the hairdo...they all awesome!!

To be fair, the minus thing about this drama is the characters naming. A person can have more than TWO or even MORE name in this drama. You have too keep up to remember all of their name :)

Love to watch and re-watch this drama!!!!

Kang-To ya!!!!!!!!!!
