dramas of my life

Many of us are anticipating the drama that will replaced the timeslot of They Kiss Again. TKA is being aired here in the Philippines and will have its finale Friday of next week. When I heard the advertisement that it will end soon I was thinking what drama will take over TKA’s schedule.

Hana Kimi and then Romantic Princess were aired just before TKA here in the Philippines. And then there was an ad already for HOT SHOT in ABS CBN. So I think a lot of televiewers were expecting that HOT SHOT might be the one to be aired after TKA. But because HOT SHOT is still being shown in TAIWAN I know that will not be the case.

by Michael Zhang. lol. I have seen him in at least three dramas (A Game about Love, Hot Shot and just today I discovered he is in BASKETBALL TRIBE) and there is always a part where he is injured, limping, one of his leg handicap. I was thinking, have he injured himself in real life ?

I don’t really know much about him and I haven’t research about him either but I am just curious about the similarity of his role on the three dramas. And just this afternoon while I was channel surfing…lol…I was asking myself if he was the one in BASKETBALL TRIBE which is being aired here in the Philippines. But unfortunately no site has an english subs for it. So I really haven’t watched.

Have you been watching this drama ? While browsing through the MYSOJU site last week, I saw that the said drama was marked as HOT. I am not sure why. But I ended up watching it. Oh h3ck! I needed to do a lot of fast forwarding because I am really annoyed by Rainie’s acting and voice ( good thing I was viewing the video with english sub so it doesn’t matter if I mute it. lol.)

I know I am too old for this kind of thing but I am young at heart. lol. I am thrilled to hear that Ariel Lin and Joe Cheng, of course of the It Started with a Kiss fame will be working for the third time.

Yeah, I admit though I am a bit irritated at Ariel Lin’s character in ISWAK still I love both.

To know more about this drama head over to the ISWAKFANSUBS BLOG. They have a link there for two videos regarding the drama (BTS and PRESS CONFERENCE). My guess is this will air take over HOT SHOT’s time slot when it ended.

another drama that is currently airing in Taiwan with the same time slot as Hot Shot. This stars Rainie Yang.

Here is the synopsis :

Jiang Xiao Hua is a jewelry store owner with no sense of style. When prince charming Jia Si Le came back from Japan wishing to marry her, she blackmailed Tang Men, a poison-tongue style guru, into helping her become a lady.

MySoju has until Episode four of this drama with english subs.

I will be watching the sub episodes and will be posting a review after I found the right discount furniture.

I never got the chance to watch this drama. Because one, it time slot is the same as Hot Shot and I thought of waiting for the english subs for the whole drama to be released before I watch it. But I give in to the tempation since the first two episodes are now available in CRUNCHYROLL.

Here is the synopsis from CRUNCHYROLL :

I guess I was wrong about my first impression of this episode. Last night I was able to catch a glimpse of it in our tv but decided to put it off since I thought it was not a good epi. I was late tuning in, i think the epi is already half way finished when I saw it.

But today, I was able to catch the first part and man was I delighted. I was telling myself that the drama was going on a downhill but for this week I think it showed something that many of us are waiting. The DFX confession. lol!

I am going crazy. lol. Seems like watching a series who uses language I don’t understand has become a weekly habit for me. My older sister is laughing at me telling me that I am going insane. haha. But the truth is, though I don’t understand Mandarin, I am quite surprised that I can get the gist of the episode and majority of the time I can somehow interpret what’s going on. Maybe because I have watched too many Taiwanese drama that made me understand.

I wanted to watch this drama but because of the feedback of those who have watched it I had second thought. Until Shaz, one of my commenters told me that it isn’t that bad. So I heed her advise. And boy was I glad because i got a good dose of Jerry Yan in this drama. lol.

Honestly, I only like Jerry Yan now. I never like him during his Meteor Garden days. Maybe its because of his role and hairdo ( I really don’t like guys with long hair, LJK is an exception. lol!). So when I saw him on hot shot, I am now singing a different song. I wanted to watch a Jerry Yan drama while waiting for subbed episodes of the said drama.

Who would have thought that I would be infront of the television watching a series whose language I cannot understand. But man, despite the language barrier I seem to understand majority of the parts.

Episode 5 started with DFX on the balcony of his house waiting for Ji er. Unfortunately, Ji er is with Da Ying. I was suprised to see that DFX will be giving Ji Er a ring. And it seems like an engagement ring to me. But he was not able to give it because Ji Er arrive with Da Ying. There is a moment that Ji ER wanted to knock on DFX door but she restrain herself. The next morning, Ji Er went to DFX house to wake him up but the later is already awake. There was a conversation between them which of course I can’t understand. lol.
