Recommended Korean Drama

I recently found a very interesting Korean drama that I recommend everyone should watch. The drama is called "Angry Mom" which is about a young mother who finds out her daughter is being bullied in school so she decides to become a high school student to protect her daughter.

Cast:

Kim Hee Sun (Wonderful Days, Faith)

Ji Hyun Woo (Trot Lovers, Queen In Hyun's Man

Kim Yoo Jung (Love Cells, Gold Rainbow)

Baro (member of B1A4, Reply 1994, God's Gift - 14 Days)

Lizzy (member of After School & Orange Caramel)

When I first heard the storyline and saw the poster for the drama, I for some reason thought it would be sort of a romantic comedy; I was dead wrong. It has a lot of drama but not too much that it becomes cheesy and soap opera like. There is a touch of comedy however to lighten the mood at times. The cast is also made up of very talented actors/actresses who play their roles convincingly. 

So I definitely recommend this drama to anyone looking for a new interesting drama to watch; you will never be bored watching it, trust me!

I've also found a new love <3

Roommate Officially Cancelled

The popular Korean variety show is officially cancelled. There were originally plans for a season 3 with a new cast but it has been revealed that the show will be cancelled all together. Honestly I am not that surprised since the show has been receiving bad ratings in Korea even though it's extremely popular overseas.

Roommate was one of my favourite Korean variety shows. I preferred the second season over the first season as the cast members were always fun and entertaining. It is sad to hear that the last episode will be airing next week.

On a side note:
My favorite roommate episode of all time was the most recent episode, episode 45. If you have not seen it yet you definitely should. I was laughing for hours and fangirling over all the Jackji moments (Jackson from GOT7 and Youngji from Kara).

Top 10 Japanese Dramas

Here is a list of my top 10 all-time favourite Japanese dramas, in no particular order. (I'm probably forgetting some but oh well). If you haven't already, you should definitely check out these dramas, you won't regret it!

1. Hana Yori Dango

Before Boys Over Flowers, there was Hana Yori Dango, which was originally a manga. Probably one of the most famous Japanese dramas that shot all the actors into stardom. Very good storyline that will never make you bored. Side note: the main characters' actors are dating in real life!

2. Hana Kimi

Another very popular Japanese drama, Also originally a manga, very good cast and fun story.

3. Ryusei No Kizuna

Awesome story line that will leave you crying. If you haven't already, you must watch this drama! Cast did an amazing job as usual.

4. Liar Game

Also originally a manga and has a Korean adaptation; in a later post I compared both versions.

5. Gokusen

Originally a manga. One of my favourite Japanese dramas of all times. It can be very inspiring and the actors did a really good job. Love This drama!

6. Zettai Kareshi

Originally a manga called Absolute Boyfriend and is now made into a Chinese version of the same title. Very interesting plot and good acting.

7. Keizoku 2: SPEC

Toda Erika plays the female main character and if you couldn't already tell I am a huge fan of her dramas. Originally, I was hesitant to watch it but I became hooked after the first episode.

8. Code Blue

Usually I am not a fan of medical dramas but this one actually made me start liking them. It was so awesome I've watched both seasons 3 times.

9. Nobuta Wo Produce

At first I didn't really care for this drama but after a couple of episodes I started loving it. The main reason why I watched it and loved it though was because of Kame (Kamenashi Kazuya, member of KAT-TUN) and Yamapi (Yamashita Tomohisa, ex-member of NEWS).

10. Seigi no Mikata

Another one of my all-time favourite dramas. Actors are amazing and characters are very funny. The older sister is definitely my favourite character in the whole show; even though she can be "evil" it always ends up benefiting others. Side note: the actress who plays the older sister is also the wife of actor Oguri Shun.
