Just Between Lovers

Main Characters Moon Soo (left) and Gang Doo

Short summary of the series: Moon Soo and Gang Doo both experienced trauma from a Mall that crashed down onto them. Without knowing that they had the same experiences, they meet by chance and fall in love - both facing losses of their loved ones in the accident.

I'm not doing any sort of review that explains the whole premise and plot etc, I'm just voicing my opinions. For this, I might as well add that there might be spoilers.

This series was joyous in its best. K-dramas are know for their dramatic flair, however I thoroughly enjoyed it and binged every episode. It really has a wonderful charm of its own.

Ever had second-lead syndrome? It's when the second male lead is usually the person you root for. This was not the case, surprisingly. They displayed so much bonding and charm onto the main characters, you'd just wait until something happened between the two. It didn't even occur to me that the series was slow paced as they kept you anticipating for the next episode.

In all honesty I stopped watching by episode 13 (total of 16 episodes), because for me I felt quite satisfied and didn't want to move any further in the story. I knew they'd probably tie up all the loose ends in the last three episodes anyway and I enjoyed it enough.

The story seems cliche, a girl falling for a scruffy and slovenly Gang Doo even when a rich, kind guy is into her. But what makes it unique is the bond between her and Gang Doo. It's heartwarming and refreshing and they wont give you what you'd expect.

One bad thing would be the constant flashbacks to the accident. You'd be reminded every episode about it and it made me feel like they were taking up screen time.

All in all, 8/10. It's extremely fluffy and cute and easy to binge.

Birdwing - Rafe Martin

Short summary of the book: A prince cursed with a swan wing escapes his own kingdom and runs away after his father wants his wing cut. I'm not doing any sort of review that explains the whole premise and plot etc, I'm just voicing my opinions. For this, I might as well add that there might be spoilers. This book was an awful drag. I could not believe a journey would cover so much of a book. However I have enjoyed some parts of it, such as: The Horse . I think the author really thought of the movie Shrek when writing about the horse. (The horse's name was Horse , do not be mistaken) Horse completely reminded me of Donkey , just a bit more sophisticated, but he humored me well. The best friends as well. I think the betrayal just made a good turn in the book. I liked it, it made me gasp and it paid for the drag of a story. His friend that he fell in love with, Skye, was already in a secret relationship with his close friend Stephen. Now isn't th...

Short summary of the movie: Two guys decide to go to Police University to become policeman, develop a tight friendship and get involved in a trafficking case that they are adamant to solve. I'm not doing any sort of review that explains the whole premise and plot etc, I'm just voicing my opinions. For this, I might as well add that there might be spoilers. This movie may be one of the best comedies I've ever seen. The chemistry between the two characters really made the movie gold. I didn't expect the humor in here as well as the reality of certain concepts. This can be watched alone or with family and everyone would be having a great time. These two were so entertaining to watch, though they're damn cute as well The developing, comical and strong bond between the two characters are extremely hilarious and heart-warming. I really enjoyed this even though there is a dark matter involved in the movie. I don't want to spoil too much however I wil...

Soo Hyun and Yong Joon, the lead characters that are extremely precious Short summary of the movie: Two guys (Soo Hyun and Yong Joon) develop a bond together until it becomes stronger. Soo Hyun gets into a car accident and Yong Joon has to endure the hardship of their loved one in a coma - with a really unpleasant mother. I'm not doing any sort of review that explains the whole premise and plot etc, I'm just voicing my opinions. For this, I might as well add that there might be spoilers. Watching this movie taught me a lot of values; Patience being one of them. I think the movie was beautiful in it own way with both characters performing extremely well. It was immersive and yet, quite sad in my opinion. It's realistic and you'll develop a bond with the characters. They definitely make you feel like you're a part of them and that you're going through their journey. Precious little beans, Yong Joon backhugging Soo Hyun The ending is open to in...
