Interesting new korean drama for 2008!!

Two korean drama which are on my ' wanted to watch' list. Korean hotties like song seung hoon (autumn in my heart), Hye Bin(snow queen), Song Hye Kyo (All in) are back!!

1. EAST OF EDEN

East of Eden’ is an epic 50-part drama series that begins in a mining village in the 1960s. The drama revolves around family love, life-long friendships and bitter revenge. The drama features some of Korea’s most celebrated younger and older generation actors including Lee Mi-suk, Yoo Dong-geun, Jo Min-ki, Lee Jong-won, Song Seung-heon (Autumn in my heart), Yeon Jung-hoon, Jung Hye-young, Han Ji-hye (Bride 16l) and Lee Da-hae (My GirL).

I think this drama will be lots of revenge and love conflicts...a very serious drama type. I want to watch due to Song Sueng Heon and Han Ji Hye.

2. WORLDS WITHIN

The cast is Hye Bin (Snow Queen, My Name Is Kim Sam-soon) and Song Hye-kyo 송혜교 (Full House, Hotelier, Autumn's Tale; Hwang Jin-yi, My Girl & I). This drama will depict the process of television drama production. An interesting pairing and both are cute!.... a good reason to watch. I notice that Song Hye Kyo has cut her hair short!! but still looks pretty.

Review of Cruel Love Korean Drama

Remember I promise a review of this korean drama in my last month blog...well only watch it if you are a big fan of Kwon Sang Woo (the Stairway to Heaven guy). The drama is a bit draggy and lot of suffering and sadness. A summary of the movie, at first the girl goes out with KSW 's brother in law but he is married to KSW's sister. So KSW's sister found out about the affair and went to attack the girl...causing the girl to miscarriage (yes..she was pregnant with KSW's bro in law's baby). So the girl ran off to an island and lo and behold, she met up with KSW and they both fell in love. So the predicament, when they came back to Seoul...they realize about their situation lah....coz she is KSW's bro in law ex mistress....so from there suffering and torture starts. To make matter worse, the bro in law divorce his wife and declares he still love the girl. So the girl is like in a dilemma....and as usual KSW with his teary doe eye still loves the girl fiercely eventhough the girl cannot make up her mind (hmm...feel like want to sepak her few times....lol)

Ending Spoiler

Be warn...do not read from now on, if you do not want to know the ending of the drama. It is a happy ending....as you can see from the pictures above. KSW and the girl ended up together after been separated for a year. The bro-in-law....poor bugger, he dies coz of some disease but with a contented heart lah and that that he reconcile back with KSW's sister (his ex-wife).

Overall, it has a good ending but not so satisfactory lah coz the girl is a bit stiff.....if I were her, come on show some emotion lah that you finally ended up with the guy you love. The ending was just a hug and smiling to each other (hmm...where is the kiss)....like saying phew thank goodness this drama is over and now can go back to sleep.

A new korean drama by the hearthrob Kwon Sang Woo (stairway to heaven). Another tearjerker drama....hopefully not another bad ending like "Stairway to Heaven". I only started writing on this due to my mum who keep insists me to get the spoilers for this drama. I will update soon whether this drama is worth to watch or not and of course the ending review of the drama...hehe. Stay tune!
