I only found the ones on youtube but I prefer to watch the avi. They’re available on clubbox but I don’t have an account there. Meh. This will do for now.

Boys Before Flowers

Thursday, December 18th, 2008

I found out from Mads that the trailer for the Korean version of Hana Yori Dango is out. I can’t wait to watch this!

Goodnight, Sweet Prince

Thursday, August 21st, 2008

I learned from my friend Mads that Lee Eon is dead. He died last night from a motorcycle accident when he crashed into a guardrail. I loved his character in Coffee Prince and this news came as a big shocker. If there’s going to be a Coffee Prince 2, it just won’t be the same without him. Rest in peace, Lee Eon. You will be missed.

HYD cast to fly around Japan

Tuesday, July 8th, 2008

Ack! I wish they’d use that jet to fly the cast here.

Last weekend, the highly anticipated “Hana Yori Dango Final” opened on 400 screens. In its first five days, it was watched by approximately 1.35 million people, grossing more than 1.6 billion yen. This puts it roughly on par with last year’s “HERO,” which went on to take in a total of 8 billion yen.

As a way of showing appreciation for the fans, starring actress Mao Inoue and F4 (Jun Matsumoto, Shun Oguri, Shota Matsuda, Tsuyoshi Abe) will be flying to various cities in a private jet next weekend. The plane is a Boeing 737-500 (which can normally seat about 130 passengers). They will visit Sapporo, Nagoya, and Fukuoka on July 12, then Osaka and Tokyo on July 13. The total trip amounts to 4,660 kilometers.

Chartering a jet for a publicity campaign is said to have never been done before for a Japanese film.

Better pinoy tv series?

Friday, July 4th, 2008

Now that Philippine television is airing Ako Si Kim Samsoon and My Girl, 2 series based on popular kdramas, are we going to see better original Philippine drama series? According to PEP, Ako Si Kim Samsoon is getting high ratings. I hope the networks follow this trend and apply this to our own series. I’ve never seen the originals of the 2 series but I’m really curious about the Kim Samsoon adaptation.

HYD Final is showing already

Tuesday, July 1st, 2008

I wish I’m in Japan watching the screening of Hana Yori Dango Final. I haven’t read any reviews about it but even if fans end up hating it, I’ll watch the movie. I wonder when it will be available on DVD and subbed!

New HYD Final Trailer

kekekeke I can’t wait to watch the movie. And Jun Matsumoto has a shirtless scene! *drools* I’ll totally do him if I have a chance :P

I watched HYD 1 and 2 again and the series made me bawl again. The ending of HYD 2 is so cheesy but that’s alright with me.

Zettai Kareshi

Thursday, April 24th, 2008

My goodness! Hiro Mizushima will appear in another dorama.

This drama is based on Yuu Watase’s shojo manga “Zettai Kareshi” (also known as “Absolute Boyfriend”), starring Mocomichi Hayami and Saki Aibu. In this version, Aibu plays a temp OL in search of a boyfriend, and she ends up in possession of a “robot” (Hayami) who is programmed to be the perfect boyfriend. However, this creates a love triangle with a distinguished young man at Aibu’s company (Hiro Mizushima) who has feelings for her.

I was looking at the dorama’s official site but got weirded out by the “robot”. Aibu looks creepy in this drama. Regardless, I hope a fansub group will release this. I want more Hiro goodness!

UPDATE

SARS Fansubs is releasing Zettai Kareshi!!! Episode 1 is out now.

Missing Long Vacation

Thursday, April 24th, 2008

I was re-watching Long Vacation and after finishing ep.1 I found out that I couldn’t find the CD of episode 2 and 3. Waaaah! I miss Long Vacation. It’s my favorite dorama evar!!! I’m in a Long Vacation mode at the moment. Feeling old, unloved, and depressed. LV is the perfect dorama to watch but now I can’t. I don’t know where the CD is and everything is a mess. I need to organize my dorama collection again, I know. I’m so bad at this.

UPDATE:

I found it! Hihihi.

Goong

Wednesday, April 23rd, 2008

I finally finished watching Princess Hours/ Goong after spending several days sleeping really late so I can watch it through a streaming site. The series was so-so for me. Actually there were a lot of boring, dragging scenes. Yoon Eun Hye was good in it but the other actors weren’t so versatile although they looked really good. The actor who played Yul reminded me of Bishie. They kinda look alike. Anyway, the series was disappointing. I was expecting it to be really good but it’s a far cry from Coffee Prince.

Here’s my favorite track from the series. I snipped the intro though.

Haaay. This track makes me want to fall in love.

Mushy but what the hell…
