I have been caught up in the fever of Boys Over Flowers recently, hence the neglection of this blog. I have always been a fervert fan of Korean dramas ever since I watched my first drama of Winter Sonata.
However, due to work and personal commitments, I have not been watching Korean dramas for quite some time until BOF came along. It was highly recommended by a good friend when I finally decided to just watch 1 episode to see how it fares.
Needless to say, I was hooked all the way. If you watch this drama in the hope of getting good acting and a good story plot, I will perhaps discourage you.
It does not have very good acting and the story does not link at times but what won me over or the legions of fans around the world are probably the 4 good looking guys ( for me, its just Ji Hoo ), 1 pretty girl, beautiful landscape, entertaining scenes and a fairytale like plot.
I did not think the girl who starred as Jan Di in the story was particulary pretty but she was quite adorable and as in all Korean dramas, there are always 2 guys fighting over the love of 1 girl, good looking hunks, gambling debts, poor girl and rich guy kinda story.
BOF is quite an entertaining story and with Kim Hyun Joong who acted as Ji Hoo in the show, I would not have missed an episode. Its actually very romantic and sweet when you see how the 2 guys show their love for Jan Di. One is the love of her life and the other is the soulmate. Who will you choose if you were Jan Di?
In this real life, will one actually have 1 love and 1 soulmate?
And if I was Jan Di, who will I choose? Will love be more important than soulmate or vice versa?
This show will be shown on Ch U, 915pm on 16th May. Isn't that great?
