The Slave Man with a Brave Heart; Korean Drama Review of “Chuno”

Remember the romantic Korean movie ‘Windstruck’? How about the funny Korean TV series ‘My Girl’? Or the romantic comedy Korean series ‘Couple or Trouble’?

These shows were also portrayed by the leading actors and actress of the historical Korean drama series Chuno, but this time with a different twist. The story is set in the time of the Joseon Dynasty, where the time of political turmoil and slaves and slave hunters still exist. The Korean fictional drama depicts the lives of slaves, how they were treated and the slave hunters that hunts down runaway slaves.

From funny and comic characters, turns into a bold and more compelling roles. The characters of Lee Dae Gil (Jang Hyuk, Windstuck); Song Tae Ha (Oh Ji Ho, Couple or Trouble) and Un Nyeon / Kim Hye Won (Lee Da Hae, My Girl).

Lee Dae Gil (Jang Hyuk)– born in nobility and abundance, his life was ruined by his half-brother, thus, losing everything he has including the woman he is suppose to marry, Un Nyeon.  He manages to live in the harsh environment and turns into a slave hunter. But above all, he dedicated his life in searching for Un Nyeon, the woman he loves.

Song Tae Ha (Oh Ji Ho)– a General wrongly accused of a crime, so he was punished and demoted as a slave. He runs away, and soon finds Un Nyeon and develops a relationship with her.

The Newest Version of James Bond; Rain Bi in Runaway:Plan B

Superstar singer-turned-korean actor Rain Bi stars on an action packed korean drama “Runaway: Plan B” before he goes in the military to fulfill his responsibility as the citizen of Korea.

This series is very familiar to Bi since he already did a project similar to this one, a.k.a A Love To Kill. He plays the role of Ji Woo, a lawless and somewhat funny private investigator, based out of South Korea but internationally linked. He then gets hired by a beautiful, mysterious and with a big fat bullseye on her back Jin Yi (Lee NaYoung) to find her Melchidec and the people who killed her whole family. Also, NaYoung has a curse that some menaces have killed every guy she ever loved except from Kia (Daniel Henney), the rich and handsome “current” boyfriend of NaYoung.

Ji Woo

Jin Yi

Kia

On the other hand, Chief Detective Do Soo (Lee Jung Jin), a rebellious yet handsome police detective that will do anything just to arrest Ji Woo due to the so called PI which is unlawful in the ROK. But, that’s not all. Do Soo’s antagonisms of Ji Woo start some years ago when the detective has been closely shot in the chest by Rain 10 years ago. However, Ji Woo planned it just to spare the life of Do Soo and the later part misunderstood it and thought that Rain Bi is trying to kill him (which is totally a false accusation).

Chief Detective Do Soo

Honestly, this korean drama series is like hitting two birds in one stone, probably three. With a touch of action, romance and some comedy, what else can you ask for? Although despite of a lot of running, well that’s why it’s called Runaway: Plan B, it is a must watch for people who wants to see an action packed drama series plus Rain Bi on it. Isn't it nice?

Lee Min Ho: A Swords Man Saga

For Lee Min Ho also known as Jun Pyo fanatic, your long wait is over. After his recently concluded korean drama series City Hunter, Jun Pyo will be back on action once again but with a different twist this time. He will portray the role of a charismatic swordsman on the upcoming series “Faith”.

The story is about a stubborn yet smart warrior during the Goryeo era. Lee Min Ho will play the character of Choi Young (the captain of the king’s bodyguard), which on the later part will become a general.

On his journey as one of the swordsman, he suddenly meets Kim Hee Sun (Eun Soo), a plastic surgeon who comes from the Koryo era from the present times. At first, they have a cat and dog relationship, but eventually, they soon fall in love with each other – isn't it so sweet? J

This koreanovela will surely make another surefire hit in our country once it will release here. I can’t wait for that moment to come.

But before that, if you can’t wait for Lee Min Ho to beat some bad guys again, you may want to relive his action-packed moments in CityHunter.

Korean Movie Review: My Dear Desperado, Not Your Ordinary Korean Movie

If you are looking for not so ordinary type of film this Korean movie is a perfect match for you. My Dear Desperado offers different twists and turns, the most unlikely but very likable characters and a love story that is really out of this world.

Actor Park Joong-hoon as Dong-chul, the low level gangster who after released from prison for taking his boss’ place wants a payback and actress Jeong Yu-min as Han Se-jin, the small town courageous girl who finds a job in Seoul but later becomes jobless and forced to live in a low cost apartment.

Main Characters:

Park Joong-hoon (Dong-chul), the Director and writer Kim Kwang-Sik, didn’t want a boy-next-door image playing the role of a low level gangster, instead he choose Park to portrayed it. With his experience in playing the role of a gangster and sometimes a bully made Dong-chul’s character more realistic and has empathy to the audience. Park Joong-hoon is now 48 and gained many awards as an actor in many Korean movies and also appeared in American films.

Jeoung Yu-mi (Han Se-jin), portrays the typical citizen, though with good qualifications and decent schooling, still finding a job is like passing through a needle’s eye. Like any other, Jeoung’s character in the movie is close to reality, that despite the hardship we experience because of the economy and the lack of resources, still she perseveres for her family. Jeoung as an actress was welcomed in the Korean movie industry as one of the most sought-after actresses because of her peculiar image when portraying a role.

Their characters are no different to many but their unique personalities and traits are amazing that inspires anybody to overcome any problem. The movie may be a love story but the approach was very light and beautiful. Not like your ordinary love story, there are seldom affectionate scenes. The story goes when they got the chance to know and understand who they are and sooner develop feelings for each other. 

This Korean movie will surely catch the hearts of its viewers and relate to their characters as they both find love in the most unexpected situation.

Korean Drama Review: Dong Yi

If you are looking for a historical Korean drama with all the twists and turns, Dong Yi will definitely make on the top of the list.

Set during the reign of King Sukjong in the Joseon dynasty, this koreanovela is based on the historical character Consort Suk. The story revolves around the character of Dong Yi, a slave who works under Queen Inhyeon. Despite of her dark and tragic past – her father (leader/chief of the Sword Fraternity) and brother was killed because they are wrongly accused for killing some nobleman  yet she manage to have a positive outlook in life and persevere to be the best person that she can be.

Dong Yi portrays an excellent example of a great woman. Being a slave challenge her to improve herself more, allowing her to rise in the top level position, first as a Lady of the Court and eventually moves up as a Concubine.

She’s also your typical type of girl who falls in love and cries over it just like anyone of us does.

Eventually, Dong Yi gave birth to their first child and they named it Prince Yeoning (which becomes King Yeong Jo after his father King Sukjong surrenders his throne).

How sweet is that?

The Power of Dream! K-Drama Review - Dream High

As Koreanovela continued to invade our Philippine Television, another Korean drama has struck our tv timeslot by storm, - “Dream High”.

Dream High revolves around six students at Kirin Arts High who work hard to follow their dreams to become famous.  

The story is not the typical hate-love relationships or action-packed/comedy genre, since it tackles about life in general. Achieving your dreams and conquering every obstacle, and falling in love at the same time, that is Dream High all about.  It shows us the real power of dream – to believe on your own talents and have a positive outlook in life at all times.

Every character has a unique story that I’m pretty sure all of us will get along.  It proves that we are all human being; we laugh, we cry, we struggle, we love and most of all we dream.  It also teaches us how to forgive and demonstrate the real meaning of love. Follow what your heart desired and dream high, for this is the only way to achieve the things that we most wanted.

Work hard, be yourself, stand still and dream high!

If you haven’t watch dream high yet, you better watch this. Definitely a must see Korean drama!
