Creating Destiny...

Hey Everyone!

I just finished watching a really sweet, family & romance drama called Creating Destiny. I'm not quite sure why it has such a low rating, but in my opinion, it was really good! It was about Sang Eun and Yeo Joon, who were forced to get together by their respective families. SE grew up in Australia with her father, grandfather, and little sister; Hyo Eun. Whereas, YJ grew up with his older sister Yoon Hee, parents, and grandmother. SE's mother passed away when she was young, and because SE was adopted (which we don't find out about till near the end of the drama), the family moved to Australia. Both of their fathers were very close friends, and wanted to become one big family, so they tried to force SE and YJ together in Korea. At first, SE and YJ argued like crazy! They seemed to almost hate eachother, however, somehow learned to fall in love with eachother, once they opened their hearts to one another. However, both of them were waiting for someone else (also others liked them!) so that made some complications in the plot. On the other hand, YJ's sister, YH, was abandoned when she was pregnant with her little daugher Jin Ju. However, her lover returned, and had to prove himself before he was allowed to marry YH. In the meantime however, another guy (who was with YH for the 6 years, also YJ's best friend) was in love with YH as well, yet his mother forbade him from doing so! Regardless, in the end YH ended up with her ex-lover, and they lived as a happy family. Almost everyone paired up, including YJ and SE (obviously, got married and was pregnant at the end!), YH and her ex-lover, HY and YJ's co-worker, and even the two that liked YJ and SE ended up together somehow! I felt the worst for the guy that liked YH, because he truly loved her, yet never had a chance! I wish he ended up with someone too! I feel sooo bad for him. He was so cute too (LOVED HIS TEETH!). Oh well, can't have it all! Either ways, it was a very touching story about two main families, and their struggles to deal with everyday situations. Some drama, but a lot more family drama/comedy type of situations. I thoroughly enjoyed this drama, and hope everyone watches it!

I give this drama a 5 out of 5 stars!

Re: Korean Food

Hey Everyone!

So, when I went to go pick up my brother from the airport on Monday, I went to that Korean food vendor again! This time I tried the fish sticks too. It was OKAY. But, I still love the spicy rice sticks and the red bean waffles. Now, I'm uploading the image too! It's awesome! Love it! =D

Stars Falling from the Sky

Hey Everyone!

So, I finished another drama today! I had to wait 3 days to watch the last 3 episodes, AND the last episode was only on viikii so I had to use my parents' computer! However, it was all worth it! The drama is called Stars Falling from the Sky and it was about Pal Kang and Kang Ha. Mainly, the drama starts off with us seeing PK with her unusual family of 7. Her father is a doctor, and mother is a homemaker (I think), yet they adopted 5 kids (all have names of colours in Korean, like Pal = red). Anyways, basically, PK was in love with KH (a moody and rude lawyer) for 5 years. She finally got a chance to live with him as a maid, yet unfortunately fate caused a lot of troubles for PK. Her parents died in a car accident (because PK's aunt wanted the project that he was going to give to PK's dad for herself). Basically, a lot of jealousy and selfishness caused PK's parents to die. However, before they died, they told PK's grandfather, that he has an heir alive (a cryptic message, that did not say it was PK directly). Anyways, in the meantime, PK was left to raise her 5 siblings all alone. So, she gave up her materialistic ways, and became a 'mother' character. She became a maid at KH's house, and made all three guys (KH, his younger brother, and nephew) fall in love with her. However, there was Jae Young and Joon Ha around. JY was madly in love with KH, and JH loved JY. However, after a lot of events, JH fell for PK as well, and JY blackmailed KH to marry her. In the end though, the youngest sibling fell ill, and JY finally realized that KH was marrying her only to protect his brother (from finding out that they had different mothers, yet JH already knew!). In the end, KH finally gave in to his feelings for PK, and they literally lived happily ever after. The last two episodes was a bit rushed, because there was no resolution with JY's mother (did she kill herself or not?). Otherwise, it was quite a touching story about a girl who had to go through a lot of obstacles to get to her final destination. The character development in the drama was great, because the moody and rude lawyer became softer, and the materialistic girl became motherly and selfless. It was definitely worth watching! Also, a very cute kiss in the last episode!

I give this drama a 5 out of 5 stars!

Cinderella's Sister

Hey Everyone!

So, I just finished (well last night) another drama called Cinderella's Sister. Wow, what an intense drama that was! It's basically a twist in the classic tale of "Cinderella" with a theme of revenge! I'm not really into this sort drama, but I was sucked into it because of the main character developments. The story is about two girls, one named Eun Jo and the other Hyo Sun. Of course, there was a guy named Ki Hoon that adds to the plot (main for me!). So, EJ's mother enter's HS's family as the new wife. EJ is a very dark character because of her mother's past relationships. She is very dark and pessimistic. She seemed to hate HS because of her cheerful (yet annoying!) personality. However, she lucks out and meets KH, who I suppose you could say, saves her from her darkness. He's only staying with HS's family because he has issues of his own with his family (he's the son of a mistress!). Of course, HS is madly in love with KH, yet he has a serious facination with EJ (since they are similar and can understand eachother), and only sees HS as a little sister. One day, when KH leaves for the army training, he leaves a note for EJ, however he left it with HS, who never gave it to her (some Cinderella she is!). After many years, KH does return, and EJ is very broken after that incident (since she thought that she was abandoned!). Later on, many incidents occur involving KH's family and HS's family businesses, and as a result HS's dad dies. EJ believed that she was the cause (due to a business deal), yet really it was KH (since he was overheard talking to this brother on the phone about betraying HS's dad). KH tried to get forgiveness by vowing to protect the two sisters, and attempting to let go of his feelings for EJ. However, after many obstacles, he finally got to confess to EJ, and she finally did in return (during a majority of the series, she tried to deny her feelings because of her guilt towards HS, and so decided to give up KH). In the end, HS allows the two to be together, and EJ finally admits her feelings. It is quite a cute happy ending. However, there were soooo many instances that I cried! Wow, very intense indeed! I would not recommend this drama to anyone that dislikes dramatic drama's. This was beyond dramatic! I left out quite a bit of the intense relationship between the two sisters and their relationship with their parents. I think I would suggest against this drama, unless you can emotionally handle it!

I give this drama a 4 out of 5 stars.
