Tree of heaven
This is a sign of a serious obsession – it is Sunday evening and all I can think of is my new Korean drama obsession "Tree of Heaven". ;D It is just fabulous beyond words and it is pushing all my favourite buttons all at once. I am swooning non-stop.

1. A hero with the dark past who wants to stay away from the love of his life because he doesn't want to hurt her - Check
2. A hero brought to redemption by the power of his love – Check
3. Snow fights - Check
4. Million Red Roses that the hero gets for the heroine – Check
6. Incredibly stylish black garb our hero is dressed in - Check
5. Bare feet and exemplary abdominal muscles – Check


A scene that gets me so much that I had to go for a jog around the park after watching it, or symbolical feet washing

Oh, this was so intense that it send me into spin: Yon Suh has a notion that "If your feel aren't cold, how will your heart can be hot" and because of it he goes around with bare feet to stop his heart from been so dark and cold and he never quite manages to get rid of this freezing feeling in his heart. So he goes around barefoot. But when he meets Hana again she buys him socks and tells him that his heart will never be cold again because they are together. And she puts them on for him. ** swoon **












And then he looks at her like this:



And he looks at her like that. (And I would have been passing out at this minute already if I was Hana)



And this is a symbolical feet washing and so much "my thing".



And when he looks at her like this I have to stop watching and go out for a jog around the park. This drama will be so good for my fitness level.





But of course, the main thing about "Tree of heaven" for me is the male protagonist Yoon Suh played by Lee Wan who possesses a wonderful combination of masculinity, angst and boyishness. Plus he has a "speaking" face..



Pictures of Lee Wan, oh I swoon again!! Pictures are taken from soompi forums mostly. Thank you, soompi!!!









































Let's go to the beach
I am looking forward to Lee Wan's previous drama "Let's go to the beach". It looks like something happy and bright, but I am sure that it will have some great angst too. A synopsis from Drama Wiki:

"This drama is about a hotel's lifeguards. The story will be based on the love between an illegitimate son, Jang Tae-pung and his half brother (different mothers), Jang Tae-hyun and the hotel owner's grand daughter, Yoon So-ra." Illegitimate son - sounds sooo good to me!

Anyone saw it? Is it good?

UpdateEEEEEEEE! I am watching an episode 1 of "Let's go to the beach" and this is a love from first sigh. Stroppy but gorgeous Jang Tae-pung (Lee Wan) + Spirited Yoon So-ra + so happy and funny from the word go. YESSSSSSSSSSS! I lurve it!!! dangermousie, this reminds me of "My Girl" so much.

These pictures are from Lee Wan's next drama – Lets' go to the beach. Guess what I am watching next?

I am on episode 13 of LGTTB and it is wonderfully angsty. Yep, I definitely like this drama. (I am also of episode 8 of "Tree of Heaven" and though I love love love it, it is ever so slightly over the top. But the gorgeousness of Lee Wan totally makes up for it. :D

EEEE!! I'm so glad you're still enjoying LGTTB. I still didn't get around to seeing it yet but that's probably a good thing since you said it's highly addictive. I plan to start on it on Wednesday(EE! That's when The Devil is out(that sounds little creepy, lol. Maybe I should call it by it's korean name Manwang) and I want to start Kurosagi(I should start that one before I see Nobuta right?). Yeah, Tree get's really over the top dramatic. That was one of the reasons why I didn't want to watch it. My mom saw it couple months ago and she couldn't stand the over dramatic scenes. I agree, If it weren't for wonderfulness of Lee Wan I wouldn't have finished the drama.

I should call it "Manwang" too, or I can frighten Sasha - sometimes she is hanging around.. :D

I hope You like LGTTB!! And Kurosagi is MUST SEE!

Hehe, I hope we won't scare Sasha. I was noticing how creepy it started to sound. We all sounded tad like satan worshipers since we are saying "The Devil is coming or I'm so excited for The Devil", lol ^^ We are just a day away from the release! I hope there's a chance that the subs will come out at the end of the week. I'm kind of tempted to watch it raw.

I plan to check those out very soon. I was planning to watch some after my finals on Wednesday while I wait for my brother to come pick me up but I noticed I forgot to bring the power cord here. :( So I have the external hard drive with usb cord but no power. :( I have quick random question: For the MU account does it allow you to download on the day it expires? I've had accounts before where they let you on that day and others don't. Thanks! :)
