EXAMS ARE OVER! AND I'M ALIVE AND WELL ~ somehow ._.
(
UPDATE On Yoo Seung Ho's Kdrama 'Imaginary Cat' down below!)
YES! I made it guys! I survived the tough exams X_X Law is seriously hell! Hell! Sorry if any one of you is a law-student but law made me go through mental breakdowns. It's seriously difficult as....fudge! (Gotta minimize the swearing here, I'm an adult so ...yeah...<_<...Fudge!) But I managed to survive, so it's all good. Now that we have that boring stuff out of the way, let's talk about the goodie goodies that I've missed out on ~
I won't go into too much detail about everything and every news that I've missed, so I've decided to just briefly mention some of the major headline news that I consider awesome that happened while I was away. But before I do that I just have to say that I finished
Oh My Ghost! and
Yong Pal, so reviews on those two will be up in the begining of next week ~ look forward to that ;) and now on to the juicy news ~
The first 2015 Korean Drama Awards were announce and the winner of the big
daesang award (basically the biggest award you can win as an actor) was
Kim Soo Hyun (Producers)
To name a few thers:
Yong Pal won
best script, EXO's Chanyeol (EXO Next Door) won the
new actor award, Lee Joon (Heard it through the grapevine) won
excellent actor award (YES BABY!!!) and the
drama OST award went to the OST for Kill Me Heal Me. Now I saw a lot of comments about how people were very disappointed and angry at the fact that Kim Soo Hyun won the daesang award and not
Ji Sung (Kill Me Heal Me), and while I have to say, I'm also very sad about that, I think Ji Sung did an outstanding job with his role (roles!!!) and
Kill Me Heal Me is one of my
favorite dramas of 2015, but I honestly felt very bad for Kim Soo Hyun when I read all those comments. Some people just expressed their disappointment but others were plain
rude O_o I got shocked! I can understand that people feel salty that the award didn't go to the person they hoped for, but shouldn't we still
respect the winner? Why hate the actor? It's not like Kim Soo Hyun voted for himself.
While
Producers wasn't really my favorite cup of tea of this year, I still don't see why some people feel the need to bash the actor for winng. I was sad too, but this is not the end you guys! SBS and KBS will have their
award shows too, so let's keep your fingers crossed that Ji Sung will win "best actor" award there! As for Yong Pal winning best script...hm...well, I won't go into too much detail on my opinions here, I'll save it for the review xD haha. Now you'll have to read that one to figure out how I felt! HAH! xD I'm so evil. I'm making you guys read multiple blog posts >:D As for Chanyeol winning best new actor award, hm...I'm not really surprised since the mini/webdrama did well, and while I haven't personally seen it, people have said the EXO members did a great job so yeah, congrats Chanyeol! xD

UPDATE: Imaginary Cat will be an eight episodes long drama and will start airing in late November on MBC Every1. It means that Yoo Seung Ho has accepted both the role in Imaginary Cat and in Remember! He will start filming for Remember as soon as Imaginary Cat ends!
The next big news (and my personal favorite)Is that smexy child...NO now he's officially an Adult Actor-
Yoo Seung Ho is back in dramaland! After finishing his military service he's filmed two movies and is now finally getting ready to step back on to the small screen as he's been offered two very interesting, yet very different roles in the dramas:
Imaginary Cat and
Remember. In
Imaginary Cat
He'll be playing the role of a young man named Hyun Jong-Hyun, a webtoon writer and part-time seller at a bookstore. He's always dreamed of working as a webtoon writer, but has stumbles upon various difficulties due to his stubborn and self-centered personality. He also has a cat named Boggil. He first met his cat on the street on a rainy day. Since then, they have lived together and Hyun Jong-Hyun only opens his mind to Boggil. The first impression I got was that it sounds like a very
odd yet
fresh plot. I'm very curious! I like cats and I like Yoo Seung Ho so we shall see how this will work out xD
As for
Remember, it is a law, political, psychology, drama about a man named Seo Woo Bin who has the condition of hyperthymesia, which allows him to remember almost every day in perfect detail. To prove the innocence of his father, Woo Bin becomes a lawyer. He struggles to prove his father's innocence, but he begins to lose his memory due to Alzheimer’s.
This story is kind of the exact opposite of the cute cat one o_o I really like that he went for two very different dramas. I'm very excited for both of them! I'm leaning more towards
Remember, I'm just a sucker for
angsty and
dark plots xD

Next up:
We all remember the smexy talented actor
Ji Chang Wook right? Whether you're a new fan who discovered this glorious man in
Healer or
Empress Ki, or if you've known him since his early
Warrior Baek Dong Soo days, there is
no exaggeration in my tone when I say that this guy, rocked the past few drama years and he keeps surprising me with every new project he picks up. The saying "Everything he touches turns to gold" applies for this man - literally! And I'm very excited to announce that he has touched yet another project! He will be starring in the upcoming
chinese-korean drama
My Male God. Aside from the name and that he'll be filming in both China and South Korea, we don't really know anything about the plot. Which makes me a bit sad, I want to have at least a sentece about the plot xD Give me something...anything!!! Oww well ._. guess it's too early guys. I'll write a new post on this one as well as soon as I find confirmed information about the plot. For now, it seems like the plot is left up for our imagination haha xD

Last but not least,
Lee Joon Gi, who just recently wrapped up the drama
The Scholar Who Walks At Night has picked up another project, and this time it's a
Hollywood movie! YES! That is correct!
He's been offered a role alongside
Milla Jovovich to starr in the movie 'Resident Evil: The Final Chapter' and judging by the actress comment that she uploaded along with a picture of herself and the actor, he's been impressing and stealing hearts of women left and right. Milla Jovovich has commented "Working for the last few nights with the incredible 3rd Dan Tae Kwon Do master and actor Joon Gi
@actor_jg has been insanely fun and so inspiring. Makes me want to go back to class and brush up on my martial arts skills!"
Isn't that adorable? <3 I don't really know if Lee Joon Gi has a big role in the movie, maybe he's just a supporting role hm.., either way, I'm looking forward to seeing Lee Joon Gi kick ass in Hollywood *_* I hope the movie will be shown in cinemas! Woop woop!

Hm..I think that's it. I'm very happy to be back and I hope I hope you're ready to get spammed by reviews, recaps and more news xD Let me know in the comments below on what you think or feel about these news? Also, if you want, leave me suggestions on dramas you'd like me to check out and review. I'll gladly consider it! :D
Well then, until next time guys ~
