Bride of the century

Country of origin: Korea
Episodes: 16 (ongoing)
Recommendation: WATCH -YES (9 out of 10, 1 - bad, 10-excellent)

Synopsis:  The rich family has a curse  -  the first bride of the family's first son has to  die. So when the eldest son has to marry - his mom, his mother-in-law and all people around him will be involved. And he falls in love..what happens then?


My remarks:
Great: 
1 cold guy with a cold heart
Kang Joo is a a heartless person...even the beutiful presents he gives to his fiencee are used to do business..He doesn't trust..he doesn't love..he doesnt show any emotions...untill he meets her...
I am a big fan of those kind of stories, where it takes a lot off effort to melt man's heart...


2. And then you can see his heart slowly melting...
through all this weird funny situation...cats, strange food, fast kisses and many many other..



3. Main girl is actig well..she is not in love initially, so she just behaves naturally..doesn''t want a kiss..argues with him, hurts him...
and she is funy sometimes..just sometimes is enough to add some funny things to drama and great love story)
"What's the use of wearing high-end brands, when a person should be high-end inside?"




4. the ghost part..which is going to kill our bride...she is both scary and make story intresting..
Do you want to be his bride, even if it ends your life?



5. balance between romance and fun
This drama has a really good balance between romantic part and fun.
We have kisses, broken hearts, pain and then funny cake eating contests..cats..and funny situations.



Bad:

1. sometimes predictable...you know this sweet moments...
when she falls from the wall..he is gonna catch her, right?
basically they reused many of popular romantic moments...but still kept them sweet..so can be accepted)

2. the main girl is this kind of poor girl with good heart..
too many dramas with same idea.. maybe i watched far too many ...
not too bad..but just sometimes i skipped some parts.

Recommendation : I gave this tv-series 9 points out of 10, which is very very rare for me. It is a great drama, with intresting plot. Full of love, tears, hurt and the same time funny and lovely. The main guy is cute and adorable, and the story of melting his heart is cute. Definitly worth watching))) 
Where to watch: Drama.net is really good and they upload quite fast, with eng subtitles. http://www.drama.net/watch/bride-of-the-century

I will be glad to hear any comments,
Enjoy and be in love,
Mary

Bu Bu Jing Qing (or Bu Bu Jing Xin 2) review

Country of origin: China
Episodes: 35? (airing now)
Reccomendation: WATCH -YES or no...I hope yes..but we will see...

Synopsis:  Basically the idea is a modern version of Bu Bu Jin Xin. When Zhang Xiao get back to her time, she meets the guy, who looks like 4th prince..so Nicky Wu is reincarnated as an adopted son of Zhentian group and Znang Xiao is working there. But..and here is but...she lost her memories...So we can expect a power struggles, many romantic scenes and some new plot twists.


Bu Bu Jing Xin...is so far my favourite chinese drama. Though I usually prefer to watch korean series, but this one is really special. Unlike many of others chinese series I watched, it has a clever plot, super romantic story and a very unique ending. Yes, amazing, loving, exciting...no matter if you are korean series fun, or you have just started your journey with asian dramas...you most probably (99%) will enjoy it...Watch it, if you haven't...


Yesterday...yes only yesterday I found out, that they already filmed the sequel...Bu Bu Jing Qing...oh my god...and going to show it up so very very soon…No wonder I got super super excited...though I feel that I am almost the last person to find out about that...hahaa..
                  


As I am kind of super-excited fun...I read many blogs, watched videos and read  different reviews...so here are my hopes, ideas and small expectations. P.S. if you haven't wathed the trailer - here it is with eng subtitles.

My first hope..I really really hope...we gonna get a happy ending. Yes, please..Do not dissapoint me this time. Though the ending last time was so clever and made me believe, that everything will turn right..Now if they decided to prolong my happiness, they must do well and can't dossapoint viewers. 

Also one point that is very intresting...are they going to follow the plot of Bu Bu Jing Xin and modernize it, or they gonna create a new story? So far as  I looked the trailer and some pics..I think both...and that's what most exciting in it. It looks like they are going to pick up our most favorite scenes and plot lines and twist it in a new way...so we both can enjoy the old favorite scenes and the same time meet with new things, problems and lots of love...


Here is the rain scene...yes, yes, yes...I super loved it last time...and have a feeling I will not be dissappointed this time too.



And do you remember this guy? He looks very cute here))) Our 10th prince gonna look quite handsome this time. And I guess he will stay a very funny and nice character in this drama.


I can't say, that I really like the trailer…actually I feel it is too serious...and the power struggle is gonna be far too much.. also the first part set the standards very high...but when I think about love..their love..I still hold on a hope that it will be all right...and in any case...I am gonna watch each and every episode..


And let me add some sugar in the end...Nicky Wu and Liu Shi Shi are couple in real life…and I hope it will affect the series even more...bringing us very romantic and unforgettable drama.


I will add more information, posts and comments as soon as it is aired and translated to english.

P.S. Do you have other ideas? Or do you want to share your opinion? Please do so!
