Baek Seung Jo's Diary: Newlywed Morning

Here it goes, since I didn't find a readable translated version (aside from the video where I copied the English version) of the diary for the special webisodes for Playful Kiss, I decided to make a copy of it and followed the format from Liezel, where find I the translated diaries from Ep. 1-16, so they will look all the same. This way, I can read them when I want to.

Merry Christmas 2011!

Merry Christmas everyone! Hoped everyone have enjoyed their Christmas this year.

Hmmm. For me this year, I enjoyed shopping gifts for my family and kids. This is the first time I have spent too much buying gifts for everyone. Though it's expensive, but I have enjoyed purchasing them. hahah. It's better to give than to receive right? And now I feel my card is worn out and exhausted from swiping on the POS and so as my little savings. J

This is also the first time I saw our Christmas tree with this number of gifts. hehehe.

Less food but more gifts for everyone this year! But as long as family is complete and healthy and everyone is merry, that’s all that matters!

Anyways, Merry Christmas everyone!

New year is coming up, what are your new year’s resolutions?

Flower Boy Ramyun Shop Finale

Category: Movies
Genre: Korean Drama


"Nothing else is important. Ramyun taste the best when you eat it while it's bubbling hot." -Pres. Choi, Flower Boy Ramyun Shop



And yet again, another great drama has ended. Flower Boy Ramyun Shop set its final airing last December 20. I would like to extend my congratulations to all the actors, staffs and crews who worked hard to make this drama worth watching for.

This one is also highly recommended, I have even recommended this to my mom. I just don’t know yet if it will be aired here in the Philippines. I really enjoyed following this drama. It’s a romantic comedy type, not much of tears being shed. This is the first K-drama I have watched where in every episode, there is always a reason to laugh. The actors are so funny, special mention to Ba Wool and Chwa. These two always makes me smile. But all of the cast are fun in their ways too.

The finale episode (which is always my problem when following a drama) has satisfied me. The transitions are not too fast and the twists are unexpected. Even in the final episode, they still manage to put on some humor. I will miss them.

If you are looking for fun and enjoyable k-drama to watch, this one would be great to watch.

PS: 
Thank you for making my Monday and Tuesday fun filled and enjoyable. Merry Christmas!! :D

And thank you to minyuhsubs for taking time to translate for us.. To kimchid for uploading the episodes for us.

See You In My Dreams!

I never thought I would have met you in my dream. I can still clearly remember how it happened. I was sleeping in my room with my iPod on, and then you came to wake me up. But I can’t hear what you were saying because I have my headset on. I tried removing the buds but no matter how I removed it again and again, there is always something that replaced the buds but then you still continue to pat me and saying something. And suddenly I woke up fearing that I can no longer remove the buds from ear. Hahaha! 

I hope you will appear again on my dreams Kim Dog Cow!!! Aside from that, I am hoping for the time that I can meet you personally! Hehehe...

Boys Over Flowers

Category: Movies
Genre: Korean Drama

Finally, I was able to finish Boys Over Flower and I must say, that was a great drama worth watching for. To be honest, I only watch it because of Kim Hyun Joong was there.  Hehehe.


Kim Hyun Jong as Yoon Ji Hoo

As for F4 Mania, I have been fan of then since Meteor Rain appeared on Philippine TV. That was when I was a college student. I can still remember those times I have to go early from school to my cousins house so I can watch it on TV since my room has no TV. The Taiwanese version was nice too. But I think the Korean version is more appealing to me.

F4
I was really wishing that Ji Hoo and Jan Di would end up happy together, but then I know that's not how it will end. The cast have worked hard that they were able to portray their roles effectively. Jan Di, sometimes I hate her because she’s so dumb at times but I salute her for enduring the hardships she been through because of her feelings for Jun Pyo. Jun Pyo, very hard headed and violent but I liked his transformation after meeting and fell for Jan Di. His sincerity towards Jan Di is exceptional. Ji Hoo who is the “firefighter for Jan Di”. He mostly appears when Jan Di is in trouble. I appreciate how he valued his friendship with Jun Pyo and have let go of Jan Di for him. But despite of it all, he always watched over Jan Di. Ee Jung is the coolest among them and has the sweetest smile there is. It can light even the darkest sky with that smile he has. No wonder girls fell for him easily. Good thing he and Ga Eul ended up together. I really liked their story too. I hoped there will be a separate drama about their love story. Woo Bin is the sweetest and acts like an older brother, more like he is the protector among them. 

For me, the story and scenes on Boys Over Flowers is much better than the Taiwanese version. The OST are also great. I really appreciate how Korean drama select their OST meticulously that would fit the drama so well. The twist was also good, but it’s more simplified compared to Taiwanese version. But then, both are good drama to watch.

I’d like to congratulate everyone for the job well done. No season 2?? Heheheh.

Early Christmas Present

I just got my early Christmas present from my sweet baby love, KC.


It’s a chocovoron in an Ice cream cone. Hahaha. I think the last time I ate something like this was when I was still in my elementary years. Mom gave it to me this morning. After simbang gabi, she stopped by at my aunt’s house and KC give told her to give this to me. The kid gave her 2 of this and told to give the other one to Kuya Epe too (my boyfriend), but mom refused and said Kuya Epe is not here but still in Cebu. I just don’t know why this kid always looking for his Kuya Epe. KC is the sweetest kid I have known in my entire life. That’s why everybody in our house loves her. KC and my BF are also close with each other.

Thank you KC! Love you baby!!

Kim Hyun Joong on Sparkling Magazine

Category: Publications
Product: Magazine


We went to Marty Mart, a convenient store along Gorordo Avenue in Cebu City to buy some foods we can eat in the hotel during our stay in the city. While bf is busy checking the chips, I was hooked up on the magazine stand near the counter. At first I was interested with the Travel Magazine that the young man picked up. So I also took a copy to look through it. After looking through with other magazines on the stand, this small Sparkling Mag has caught my attention. The man on the cover is so familiar, hahaha. It’s later that I realized it was Kim Hyun Joong-ssi with his mischievous smile. As soon as I saw that bold letters in red, "Kim Hyun Joong", without second thought I took it along and paid for it. Hahaha. Bf was asking why I was buying it, I just smiled. (But inside me, I am so overwhelmed I was able to grab a copy of this issue) Tttssss, he is also a GG fan. LOL!

I’ll share the pages with you guys, heheh… It’s the October 2011 issue covering The Face Shop Asia Tour here in the Philippines. I have only read the part about Kim Hyun Joong-ssi. The other part of the issue, I haven’t read them yet. Hehe. Though it’s a bit short, but I have enjoyed reading and viewing the pictures. I’m simply happy that’s why I’m sharing it. 

Just click on the photos to enlarge them.

Kim Hyun Joong: Kiss Kiss

Okay, this has been the first time I have listened to a song over a hundred times. Kim Hyun Joong's Kiss Kiss has been playing on for the last 2 days and I can't stop myself but listen to it over and over again. Sweet song, indeed!! 




170 times and still counting not included those on my iPod. :) I can't work if this isn't playing on my headset. When I’m away from my computer, I use my iPod so I can still listen to this song. From the very first time I have heard this song last Friday, I have been listening to it non-stop until now! haha.. This is the first time I have listened to a song more than a hundred times. I also love watching the video, I love the choreography and how Kim Hyun Joong sang to it always with his sweetest smile! J

Let's see how far this will take me. Hahaha!

Here’s the lyrics, hope you guys enjoy the song as much as I do! J

--------------------------------------------------------

Kiss Kiss
Yeah, kiss kiss
꿈처럼, like a star, 너만 기다렸던 거야

세상 어떤 누구도 nothing’s better

커피 한잔의 여유도

보러가는 발걸음도

어느새 익숙해진 기쁨인
이런 내가 아닌데
이런 적이 없는데
너라서 그래

Oh, I won’t stop

I’m loving you

색이 바라지 않는 꿈을 그릴 있게
To love with you
오직 너만이 있는 하나의 magic for us

Kiss kiss

I want your kiss kiss

달콤한 kiss kiss
Oh, baby, baby
I wanna kiss kiss
I need your kiss kiss
둘만의 kiss kiss
Oh, baby, baby

TV처럼, like a dream, 주인공이 같아

세상이란 무대 위에 너와

좋은 영화가 나올
새로운 음악이 나올 때면
제일 먼저 생각나는 너인
이런 남잔 아닌데
이런적은 처음인데
너니까 그래

Kiss Kiss [English Translation]
Yeah, kiss kiss
Like a long dream, like a star, I waited for you

No one else in this world, nothing’s better

The leisure of a cup of coffee

The steps leading me towards you
Are all joys I’ve become familiar with
This isn’t me
I’ve never been this way before
It’s because it’s you

Oh, I won’t stop

I’m loving you
So we can draw a dream of lasting color
To love with you
Only you can provide this magic for us

Kiss kiss

I want your kiss kiss
Sweet kiss kiss
Oh, baby, baby
I wanna kiss kiss
I need your kiss kiss
Just the two of us, kiss kiss
Oh, baby, baby

Like TV, like a dream, I feel like I’m the star

The world is our stage and we are on it
Whenever a good movie premieres
Whenever new music comes out
You’re the first person I think of
I’m not this kind of guy
I’ve never been this way before
It’s because it’s you

Kiss Kiss [Romanized]
Yeah, kiss kiss
Gin ggoom chuh rum, like a star, nuh mahn gi da ryut dun guh ya

Ee se sang geuh uh ddun nu gu doh nothing’s better

Coffee han jan eh yuh yu doh

Nul bo ruh ga neun bal guh reum doh

Nuh ra suh geuh re

Oh, I won’t stop

Sek ee ba ra ji ahn neun ggoom eul geuh ril su it ge
To love with you
Oh jik nuh mahn ee jool su it neun ha na eh magic for us

Kiss kiss

I want your kiss kiss
Dal kom han kiss kiss
Oh, baby, baby
I wanna kiss kiss
I need your kiss kiss
Dool mahn eh kiss kiss
Oh, baby, baby

Kim Hyun Joong's Playful Kiss

Category: Movies
Genre: Korean Drama 



I watched this out of my boredom, but I didn’t know I will be enjoying this drama so much. It’s a beautiful love story about two individual and how they overcome the hardships and still ended up happily together. This is also based on the popular manga Itazura Na Kiss by Tada Kaoru. It's a warm, romantic, bubbly drama. 

Baek Seung Jo, played by Kim Hyun Joong-ssi, is an arrogant, genius, perfectionist and noted as a prodigy on his school. He is known and admired among the ladies on their high school not only because he maintains to be always at number 1 spot but also of his good looks. He is good at almost everything except for solving his own feeling towards the person he loves.

Oh Ha Ni, played by Jung So Min, is the complete opposite of Baek Seung Jo. She is a clumsy student who falls for the perfectionist, Baek Seung Jo. An earthquake struck their newly build house which made them homeless and ended up to live with her father’s close friend.

I would really recommend this drama to everyone. It’s very enjoyable, fun and romantic. This is the first K-drama I have watched that I never had problems with the ending because of the webisode on Youtube that they made, I was slowly weaned from the drama. And also the Diary of Baek Seung Jo was also great, it helped me understand more about what the Great Baek Jo is thinking about. Because when you only watch the movie, it keeps you guessing what the hell is he really thinking?? But that was fun though, I know because I just discovered the diaries after I have watched the episodes and webisodes. haha!

This is also the drama that made a fan of Kim Hyun Joong. LOL!

I really find this bears cute which is shown at the ending for every episodes.
I recommend you watch this drama too and hoped you enjoy it as much I did. I'll be uploading a copy of the diaries from the webisodes only soon when I have enough time to edit them. For the complete translated diary you can check liezles blog for episodes 1- 16.

Baek Seung Jo Diary




It would have been great beforehand if I have known that Baek Seung Jo Diaries exist for every episode. Thanks to Liezle who have shared it online in English, I was able to read all of them. I am not yet sure who wrote the diary, is it fan made or really part of production, but hell yeah! That was a diary worth to read! I should watch the drama again and after every episode, I'll read the diary, this way I can understand what the great Seung Jo is thinking. But yeah, of course, I have also enjoyed watching it even without the diary. I got the chance to enjoy the puzzle of what really Seung Jo feels. I can't wait for the afternoon to come so I can write something about Playful Kiss.

Banzai!! Baek Seung Jo!!
Banzai!! Playful Kiss...
