Major kilig with this Chinese Drama!

Want to take a break from korean dramas? Are you looking for a story that's not too heavy? Search no more because A Love So Beautiful (ALSB) is a chinese drama that will make you want to go back to high-school and fall inlove with your smartest, most good-looking classmate. LOL.

My colleague at work is hyping ALSB and she said that she ended up watching the whole series for 1 whole weekend. I got interested and tried watching one episode. At first, it has familiar vibes with It Started with a Kiss (Taiwanese) and Playful Kiss (Korean). I don't like these two dramas, hence, I have doubts with ALSB. I ended up not proceeding with episode 2.

But then again, the same colleague of mine is still hyping this c-drama. So I gave it another try. And viola! I ended up liking the series and finishing it for 2 weeks. One should have patience in order to appreciate the story. Chinese drama is known for their long series. I'm actually surprise that ALSB has just 23 episodes. I'm very used to c-dramas that has 30+ episodes like  Boss & Me and Far Away Love.

A Love So Beautiful is about a jolly girl named Chen Xioxie who has this biggest crush to her neighbor and classmate, Jiang Chen. Jiang Chen happened to be the number 1 in their class. On the other hand, Chen Xiaoxie is not the brightest in class and always ending up in trouble. That's where her friends enter the scene. Lin Jingxiao is Xiaoxie's bestfriend. Wu Bosong has one-sided love to Xiaoxie and Lu Yang is head-over-heels inlove with Jingxiao. These five people have chemistry and I could imagine that they're good friends in real life. Aside from that, individually, their stories are quite interesting.

Where to watch: Netflix


I, also, enjoy listening to A Love So Beautiful OST english cover of Ysabelle.



Have fun watching!

Your chingu,
Grace

    Thank you for recommending this drama. It has a light story that is so suited to end a day after hectic schedule at work. :) I liked the ending too with a different POV.

iKON is KILLING ME

Yes, you read it right. They're trying to kill me. I can't even think properly as I am trying to write this blog post. I really like korean music thanks to many years of watching korean dramas. At first, I'm just hooked with OSTs but then I discovered Bigbang early 2017. And it hit me. It hit me real hard. I can't believe I just missed all those years of not knowing that Bigbang exists. I spent months trying to catch up with 10+ yrs of their awesomeness. Just my luck, 4 out 5 members are serving in the army, hence, it will be awhile to release a new album. I enjoy listening to Bigbang, Blackpink and Dean. I am into hiphop, RNB, swagger-type of music. And I discovered iKON. I'm trying to add some new songs into my Spotify playlist. When I heard "Love Scenario", I thought it's cool. I like the flow of the song and the voices of the guys. So I decided to check out their other songs. Other than LS, the first few songs I repeatedly listened to were Beau...

New Drama Alert!

Photo by soompi.com Lately, I'm obsessed with Suzy Bae's and Lee Jong-suk's new drama "While You Were Sleeping". I cannot, chingu! Their chemistry is so freaking real! Honestly, I'm a bit skeptic before the drama aired because I really ship Lee Jong-suk and Han Hyo-joo because of their drama "W-Two Worlds" that aired last year. But time to move on because here comes the new couple who will surely dominate the small screen.    While You Were Sleeping airs every Wednesday and Thursday 10pm (KST) on SBS. There are 2 episodes each day and it last 35 minutes for each episode. So basically we can still get the normal run time of a korean drama which is more or less 2 hours per week. This reminds me of Ji Chang-wook's Suspicious Partner which has the same run time as WYWS (half an hour per episode). The drama is about a girl who sees the future in her dreams and a prosecutor who tries his best for the girl's dream not to come true....
