Wow – one month and I didn’t blog a single thing… aiks !!

I knew the minute I start watching Korean drama I am going to be in serious trouble. It was like an addiction which I couldn’t shake off. Every night I was glued to my monitor / tab / ipad. It was really scary how much drama I have watch since I started.

A quick recap of all the Kdrama I watch recently

1. Secret Garden – 23 episode

2. Personal Taste – 16 episode

3. My Princess – 16 episode (re-watch 2 times)

4. Prosecutor Princess – 16 episode (re-watch 2 times)

5. Can you hear my heart? – 30 episode

6. wonderful Life – 16 episode

7. Full House –  16 episode

8. Scent of a women – 16 episode

9. Coffee Prince – 16 episode

This brings us to a total of 165 episodes in ONE month !! which is more than 5 episodes / day!! (not even counting the 2 drama which I rewatch twice !! )

I was reading online about Korean drama and realised that I am not the only one who is addicted. It seems like the world it addicted to Korean drama / movie lately. For the Korean, they actually have a term for this. They call it the ‘HALLYU’ fever. Basically, it means spreading the korean culture to the world. Actors / Actress who are able to capture attention of fans outside Korea are also known as hallyu stars.

Japan being the closest market for Korea’s entertainment industry is now on hallyu fever too. Female fans are going crazy whenever one of the Korean actor / actress have fan meeting there. come on – who can blame them with all the yummilicious Korean actors like Hyun Bin, Lee Min Ho, Song Seung Heon, Gong Yoo, Park Si Hoo, Kim Jae-Won and etc. Not to mention, every Kdrama is always (without fail) have scenes of these guys in shower, showing off their amazing body, wrist grabbing, passionate kisses and the guys going all out to please the women they love !! swoon….

 Anyway, after weeks of watching non-stop, I’ve decided to cut my addiction and say byebye to them.

 I am proud to say – it has been 3 days since my last K-drama. Let’s hope I can keep this up… ;p

The Gamer

After a nice scrumptious double date buffet dinner at Sahara Tent (middle-eastern restaurant near Bukit Bintang Area, Kuala Lumpur) with my best mate from childhood (Kero-Pi), we were mulling over what we should do next. It was a toast between no black tie and movies.

 Movie @ Pavilion won.

Looking at the movie listing, there doesn’t seem like there was much good choice available. Kero-Pi was excited about Final Destination in 3D, but, Chulet put her foot down. NO HORROR please!!! Finally, we decided on the Gamer (highly praised by Chulet’s baby brother.  

Movie started with tons of shooting and running around. Reminds me of the game Counter-strike, le sigh.. (I can never sit and play for more than 15mins – motion sickness)

Had a bad sinking feeling that I will be quite sick after the movie. Thankfully, the scenes after that are no so bad.

The movie basically tells a story about a world where humans have total control over certain humans. These humans who are being controlled are either convicts or desperate people needing a job to pay for food on table. For the convicts, they are placed in a game call ‘the Slayer’ whereas the latter in ‘the society’.

I am not sure which is worst.

 

The Slayer where buy the convicts to play you as an soldier and when the screen flashes game over, it literally means that the guy whom you were controlling get blown into smithereens.  

OR,

In Society, you control someone to act out all the lustful perversion acts which you might not dare to do in the real world or you might not be able to do it (due to some physical deformation).

WHO gave these people the right to play GOD?

Even God gave us all Free-Will.
