It Started With A Kiss & Hana Yori Dango
IT STARTED WITH A KISS
Am currently "chasing" this series which is being aired in Taiwan & released in D-addicts for downloading. This series is actually based on a Japanese manga. The comic did not have an ending cos the author passed away while writing half way through it. Then, there’s a Japanese drama version of it (which I bought years ago). & now, they’ve finally come out with a Taiwan drama version. Initially, when I saw it released in the homepage, I tot it was the Japanese version but no, it was Taiwan produced. So, out of curiousity, I decided to dl. Even after I downloaded till episode 6, I didn’t start watchin & it didn’t look all that interesting. One day of mischief - & I’M ATTRACTED & ADDICTED TO IT! Dunno to say I regret anot but the series is rily rily nice! With Joe Zheng Yuang Chang & Ariel Lin Yi Chen acting in it, the show’s just great! At first, I tot it was weird for Ariel to act like a complete blur girl but after watching, both the them just blend so well & look perfect together! Serious… Seeing their chemistry n all… The show’s funny & touching at the same time. PLUS, ZHENG YUAN CHANG’s damn damn damn cute! Hahahaha… He’s 188cm tall. Can u imagine? The scene where he kissed the girl, he had to open his legs wider to appear not so tall & when he came out & stood in front of the door, he was taller than the door’s bingkai (*OMG). The show’s currently released till ep9 & i doubt i’ll finish dl even till I leave for US. Worried how to cont watching if I can’t dl there. Sigh… Total recommendation!
HANA YORI DANGO
For those of you who doesn’t know what does Hana Yori Dango refers to, it’s actually "The Flower Boys" or in another words, "Meteor Garden" (acted by F4 & Big S). Similarly, this series originated from manga & went on to Japanese series, Taiwan series & the latest, Japanese series again. After reading the original comic, I realized the Taiwan series made quite major changes in the story line here n there but overall, it’s still the same (refering to Dau Ming Shi, San Chai etc). Anyway, as I just mentioned, there’s a latest japanese series on it again & I rily appreciate F4 for acting in the show cos the Dau Ming Shi is much much more leng chai than Domyouji (as in Taiwan more good looking than japanese). The guy’s actually quite famous in Japan & it appears that many fans were looking forward to him acting in it. But to us, well at least to me, he’s rather a stranger & I seriously wondered y did the casting team chose him?! He’s the least leng chai & he’s the shortest among the F4. NOT CUTE AT ALL! Erm… Maybe I’m exaggerating this. I mean he do has his good points (big eyes etc.) but… NOT QUALIFIED ENOUGH TO BE THE LEADER OF F4! Hahahaha… As for Hua Zhe Lei (Hanazawa Rui), i think the guy they choose to act was quite compatible to the character & the guy’s yeng. Haha Got the Lei feel… The other two (Xi Men - Soujiro & Mei Zhuo - Akira) Hmm… Not bad looking la… Both Taiwan & Japan also quite good looking I would say… Am also currently "chasing" after this series. Only released till ep5. But it’ll be much shorter than Taiwan series since it’s Japanese (always significantly shorter). Btw, the San Chai (Makino Tsukushi)’s quite cute. Cuter than Big S… & Dau Ming Shi’s elder sister (Tsubaki)’s acted by Nanako Matsushima. The actress in GTO, Takashi Sorimachi’s wife.
Just a little comment here n there bout the series I’m watching now. These shows are considered MUST WATCH in my opinion. Enjoy!
P/S - The Wireless in the apartment is really killing me! It’s too too too slow!!! Then again, It’s not even mine - considered stealing u know? Hahaha… THanks to the whoeva’s izit anyway…
