Korean Idols...Some well known Some not so much....

How do I even start...  Oh I know the beginning...

Jung Il Woo

Jung Il woo will forever be my favorite. He was my first Kdrama crush. I always will talk about Flower Boy Ramen Shop as it was my first drama and Jung Il Woo left a huge impression on me...so much that I watched The Moon Embracing the Sun and 49Days.  AND I WILL FINISH Golden Rainbow even through it is too much like an American Drama to me. Jung Il Woo is a great actor. He can be serious and he can be very funny with his talk lanky self. His  facial expressions are seriously Aegyo too!!!

Jung Woo Sung

Jung Woo Sung OMG what can I say about this Man.... OMG his role in "A Good Rain Knows" where he spoke English the whole time #YASSSSSS but the role that really got me well the 2 roles... His characters in A Moment to Remember and Sad Movie. If you ever have a moment check out these movies and remember your tissues, you'll need a whole box. If you want action then check out Musa or The Good, The Bad and The Weird.... He is a true Oppa tho he might even be an Ahjussi LOL (he is a little bit old)

Kim Soo Hyun

Do Min JOON!!!! LOL My Love From The Star was on of the best dramas of 2014. But I first saw this guy in The Moon Embracing the Sun! He was amazing! Plus he is super cute in a puppy dog way.

Kim Woo Bin... This guy came into my life as Choi Young Do the Second Male lead who you really wanted to get the girl. Kim Woo Bin has an excellent look he can either be a school boy like in the Drama School 2013 or become a Gangster like in Friends 2. He started as a model so that's why he know's how to werk the camera.

Also starring in Heirs....
Kang Ha Neul!! His storyline was quite odd as he was in love with his tutor and the main story line follow the characters played by Lee Min Ho (who will not be on this list) and Park Shin Hye and the lovely guy above. Hopefully I will get to watch the movie he did with 2pm's Jun Ho. Looking at him makes me think that my taste for Korean Idols are those who are more manly than flower boy....



 Here is a bonus pic of Jun Ho.  >>>>
He is a cutie too!








                   
And now....

Song Jae Rim who I first paid attention to him in Moon Embracing the Sun as the King's great protector. Apparently he was in Flower Boy Ramen Shop I later saw him in Inspiring Generation... Kim Hyun Joong's last Drama before his like went well... Baby Mama Drama... smh. He's been in a few other Drama's and was on a season of We Got Married! Song Jae Rim is a low key actor....

Well that is just one list of awesome actors I am sure that there are many more I can mention now but I will save them for later!!!

Inspiring Generation Episode 9/10 Weekly review SPOILERS!

Shin Jung Tae....GEESH!!! As soon as he makes friends, he makes enemies.

Ok so first Poong Cha did not kill Dobi leader Hwang Bong-Sik, he just put him in a sleeper hold, because he knew that he would have stopped him from going to the Ill Gook Hwa camp to get Jung Tae. OH MY GOD the reactions from Hwang Bong Sik and Shin Jung Tae when they found out Poong Cha was gone. WOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO I mean!! I have never heard a man scream like a female in that way before, I was totally unprepared for Hwang Bong Sik's reaction.
 Shin Jung Tae....

The FEELZ... even though Kim Hyun Joong is my bias I am still looking at his acting very closely as he has been criticized in the past for not doing well, which I wonder how they could have criticized him for Ji Hoo (Boys Over Flowers), I think he did well as the romantic aloof  prodigy, because that is who he is AND Baek Seung Jo (Playful Kiss) is a non-romantic aloof prodigy SAME thing if not more so as Kim Hyun Joong has been noted to have said that he is not all into the romantic lovey dovey. So Shin Jung Tae is actually a challenge as he is not a gangster or fighter. BUT he is still aloof. I think that is just a male lead trait. I am watching closely, which is why I have been upset that Kim Hyun Joong wasn't previously in many scenes. Now I am seeing more and basically when I am watch Inspiring Generation I am watching Shin Jung Tae NOT Kim Hyun Joong. This is good!!! 

HOW ABOUT I was right about the fact that even though there was an adult Shin Jung Tae we still weren't caught up... they even showed all of episode 1's introduction scenes.
I would just like to say that I am totally disgusted in the fact that  Gaya loves Shin Jung Tae AND worst that Shin Jung Tae loves Gaya. We know what happens in such situations, being that this drama is all about fighting and troubles, it seems that there will be a tragic ending.... do you think the Kdrama world will do this to us? They did it to us with 49 Days, remember that ending with the characters standing at the graves of the ones they loved? Of course Jung Tae still has to discover the whereabouts of his sister Cheng Ah.

How about my discovery... There are soooooo many characters involved in this drama and it seems like I keep finding connections to other dramas, like Song Jae Rim who I noted in the review of Episode 8. 
First I should mention Sunbae Jung Ho Bin who plays Wang Baek-San. He was also in Boys Over Flowers. But as Shin Jung Tae meets the guy who had been his father's right hand man, Jung Jae-Hwa, played by, Kim Sung-Oh I thought to myself: Wait I know him from something....Was he in the drama When A Man Loves? I was right. This is a HUGE cast so of course there will be connections to other dramas. 

How about the reunion with Ok Reyeon? She is the that nice sweet girl who would like him to stop fighting, unfortunately she doesn't understand the world that he is involved in... I was so made when she sees him in the middle of the fight and screams out to stop fighting, then he gets clocked right upside the head. AISH!!!!
But I am glad that they have found each other again and I hope she doesn't mess him up any more but I am sure she will...

His facial expression is priceless when he sees her. Like I said this is not like Kim Hyun Joong. When I am watching Inspiring Generation I see Shin Jung Tae. When the show is over I scream out SHIN JUNG TAE!!!!!!!!!!! When its Tuesday and I patiently await Wednesday I am like omg I can't wait to see Shin Jung Tae! When I am listening to SS501 I am like Kim Hyun Joong is my Bias. I love Kim Hyun Joong. My point is that if I can separate the character from the actor then he must be doing a good job. From some of the articles that come out of Korea, the drama is doing well in ratings, but that is not all because of Kim Hyun Joong. Its a great show! But then again I am bias LOL!!!! 

Shin Jung Tae is VERY Popular!!! Episode 8

First I would like to say that I apologize to those who read/follow my blog and check for updates. Between not knowing how to put the awesomeness that is Kim Hyun Joong into words,  watching two other dramas at the same time AND having to work... getting this post going was difficult.

BUT 

Episode 8 was great and once again even with the short scene time of Kim Hyun Joong, I fall in love with him more and more each episode.

It's his eyes. 

It seems like Shin Jung Tae has become very popular among those who are both allies and enemies. Its seems like everyone was saying: Shin Jung Tae.

SPOILER...if you haven't seen episode 8 don't read any further**** Heads Up!!!

Did Poong Cha  kill Dobi leader Hwang Bong Shik?

It looks like this is a huge turning point. Shin Jung Tae kicks Shinjyo's butt, sort of... Shinjyo tries to come at Jung Tae without the sword but once Jung Tae gets it together he gets him pretty good. Unfortunately Shinjyo's swords gets Jung Tae.

Poong Cha comes to collect Jung Tae who was lying on the ground seemingly life less. SPOILER!!!! Poong Cha dies lying on Jung Tae. The scene brought tears to my eyes.

The Show ends with Mo Il-hwa coming to collect Shin Jung Tae. The last scene is Mo about to fight Gaya.

HOW ABOUT I AM JUST REALIZING THAT MO IL HWA IS PLAYED BY SONG JAE RIM OMG OMG OMG HELLO...He was only one of Cha Chi Soo's hot besties in Flower Boy Ramen Shop, AND he was the King's RIGHT HAND MAN in The Moon Embracing the Sun!!!!

 Guess I couldn't tell because of the haircut. I am so mad at myself for not realizing this... I see that he also must be in Two Weeks which is another drama I MUST WATCH!!!

BACK TO INSPIRING GENERATION....

I think my thoughts from a previous blog were correct. I was thinking that although we see adult Jung Tae, we still aren't caught up to where he was on episode one. We are still in back story. BUT I think that after episode 9 it will brings us to the present (well not our present but Jung Tae's present)

**** SPOILER****
What about Ok Reyeon? Who did she accidentally kill?  Well I guess Wednesday we will have our answers!!!


OH an anyone in love with Second Male Lead yet???

If not let me help you out:
