Rediscovering my love for K-drama

Anneyong! 

Idk where or how should I start...

okay, so we're still in under quarantine a.k.a MCO till 8th June if I'm not mistaken. Since I got nothing much to do, I've been binging a lot of drama. A LOT! 

Kdrama used to be my jam when I was in primary and secondary school, thanks to mak cu's influence. I watched most of the OG drama like winter sonata, stairway to heaven, autumn in my heart, full house and etc. My fav has got to be My Girl, Full House and Princess Hours (Goong) I only managed to rewatch full house cause it readily available on Netflix and I really like the simple and cute story like between the lead characters.

somehow over the years I kinda lose interest in kdrama and gravitate more towards mainstream Hollywood stuff like Game of Thrones, Westworld, Lucifer, Scandal and etc. i think I watched like two drama over the last five years (Oh my Venus and Descendants of the Sun). since I've been staying with my cousin, my interest in kdrama sparks again! there's a range of kdrama genre left to be explored.

It all started this year with Crash Landing on You starring Hyun Bin and Son Ye Jin. It took me a while to move on from the drama. CLOY has the right amount and cheeziness, cuteness, action,and crime! I mean the main antagonist was really bad! the side character stories were also interesting to watch. after CLOY, I was hesitant in starting a new drama cause I usually need some buffer time to remove any attachment left towards the character. LOL.

when I came back home, I decided to watch Netflix Kingdom cause the drama create a lot of buzz. Plus, the main character is the crown prince from Princess Hours, Ju Ji Hoon. I was blown away by the storyline, the characters, the action and thriller sequence. Maan, it definitely left you on the edge of your seat! i never knew that k-drama could be this great!! and I crave for moreeeee!! and don't get me started on crown prince lee chang played by the charismatic, Ju Ji Hoon! Omg, he aged like a fine wine. he was a cold but cute crown prince in Goong. In Kingdom he plays an honorable and charismatic crown prince trying his best in saving his kingdom from zombies.

that's enough fangirling 

till next time
