[REVIEW] Master's Sun/주군의 태양


Here goes reality: I NEVER REALLY WANTED TO WATCH THE MASTER'S SUN. Simply because I am easily scared of ghosts; but I guess the interest on watching So Jisup again on a drama is more intense than my fear so I gave in.

And it was obviously a great decision.

This year, we had been blessed with really good dramas and The Master's Sun is really one of them. Like my impression with I Hear Your Voice, this drama made me feel like the fantasy incorporated in the plot is something normal. Although it is normal (as I know some people who can actually see ghosts), I have come to realize that the acting prowess of the casts were really great!

So Jisup is one thing. Seo Inguk is another. Kim Yoori stood out too! Even Mr. Kim, I will definitely applaud. But I need to emphasize on Gong Hyojin's character.

I cannot remember where exactly I read that but I think it's from an interview where So Jisup said that acting with Hyojin turns him into a better actor. He said that the actress can easily transform herself to different characters; and Master's Sun proved that.

At first, Tae Gong Shil's character was really annoying, but as serious business came around, I was stunned with how convincing she is. I loved how she delivered her lines, with her voice soft. I loved how she smiled and cry, exposing the real emotions inside her. She's great!

Going on to the plot now, The Master's Sun is really something unique. I've never encountered a plot like this before, even in mangas so I was easily hooked. It's awesome how the writer actually paid attention to the conclusion of each story brought out - even the ghost's. I honestly didn't expect that they would even include the story of the ghost beside the trash can. 

If only they included a passionate kissing scene between Kang Woo and Yi Ryeong.... tsk...

You guys should all watch it. Dog lovers should anticipate the Pilseung episode as it will definitely make you bawl your eyes out. ♥

What is Wrong with Secretary Kim Filming Locations [IMAGE HEAVY!]

I know I have promised to ID Korean drama filming locations of another Korean drama but I just can't help it with this one. Entitled What's Wrong with Secretary Kim, it is a story of Lee Yongjun ( Park Seojun ), the egoistical and very self-centered vice chairman of the Yunmyung Group, and his secretary, Kim Miso ( Park Minyoung ). So the vice chairman had been very, very dependent on his secretary so when she decided to resign, it took him by surprise and all hell breaks loose. LOL The drama casted KPOP idols Kim Yewon (Jewelry) and Hwang Chansung (2PM) too and I think they're doing good in their current field. <3 I can't help but laugh everytime I see Chansung on my screen. Watch the drama to know why. HAHAHAHAHAHAHA. The whole story was apparently based on a manga and it's a must to watch this one. It has a light story, and will definitely make you wonder at some points. So it got me hooked easily. And when I get hooked, the locations should b...

[Doctor Stranger/닥터 이방인] The Real Myeongwoo Hospital

second photo from kiis3300@Naver International St. Mary's Hospital ( 국제성모병원) Simgoklo 100-gil, 25 Seo-gu, Incheon Metropolitan City 인천 서구 심곡로100번길 25 Three episodes and I'm getting hooked. Putting Lee Jongsuk, Park Haejin and Kang Sora in one drama seems like a fatal thing to me. I love all of them!!! So yeah, I'll be ID-ing Doctor Stranger seriously now. And we'll start with this hospital. As said, it's the International St. Mary's Hospital in Incheon. In the drama, it's named as the Myeongwoo Hospital where Haejin and Sora works. It's quite a big facility considering that it has a housing facility for the residents (Maris Stella) and a mall with an indoor golf course (Wellbeing Mall) within its complex. Amazing, right? I knew all those because of their website. LOL. Visit it here . There's an English feature. FOLLOW US FOR MORE UPDATES! IMPORTANT NOTE: This post may not be 100% accurate.

EXO at New SM Entertainment Building

first photo from only5_yoonjae @ weibo New SM Entertainment Seollung-ro 190-gil, Chungdam-dong, Gangnam-gu, Seoul (서울특별시 강남구 청담동 선릉로190길 ) As far as I can remember, they have been using this building since the beginning of the year. I am just not sure though if it goes beyond that. Nevertheless, yeah, here's another building for SME where EXO is now commonly seen. It is quite easy to locate and definitely just a few steps away from Yeonsei Riverville .  RELATED: HOW TO BECOME AN SM TRAINEE? It's a pretty long walk but I think it's gonna be worth it if you really want to explore this part of Chungdam-dong. I mean, there are quite a number of shooting locations in the area which you may want to visit. :)
