My Korean Drama Craziness Continues...

I promised that I would do tons of stuff and make up for lost time in blogging now that it is April. Nine days have passed since our semestral break started and I am still lagging behind in my list except for the "watch Korean Dramas online" portion on my list.


In those nine days, I just finished watching the 24-episode "Goong" or  "The Imperial Household" or more popularly known in the Philippines as "The Princess Hours".


What I really love and find so delightful about this series? Aside from the characters, it would have to be the teddy bears! I just love them! There's this really nice Teddy Bear Museum in Jeju Island in South Korea that is worth visiting. I guess that would have to be included in my "places to go list". Just thinking about the place makes me want to go on a vacation. If I had a job, I might even get a payday loan so I can just go there. Right now.

What this series is also about? Here's the synopsis:

Chae-gyeong is an ordinary art high school student. One day, she hears totally unexpected news that, based on her grandfathers will, she must marry the unemotional Crown Prince Lee Shin who attends the same high school. Free-spirited Chae-gyeong resists the proposal, but reluctantly marries him to help her debt-ridden family. As she struggles to adapt herself to the proper manners and royal duties of palace life and to her disagreeable husband, Lee Shins sentimental cousin and second-in-line to the throne Yul steps into her life. She feels like she can rely on Yul to help her, but cant help worrying about her haughty, cold-hearted husband. To help bridge this gap, the senior members of the royal family take some special measures to get them to spend the night together. Along the way, you will encounter numerous delightful episodes among the cute and lively Chae-gyeong, the cold heartthrob Lee Shin, the handsome, down-to-earth Yul, the perfect ballerina Hyo- rin who just cant get over Lee Shin, and all the other members of the royal family. Will the Crowned Princess, Chae-gyeong be up to the challenges of royal life?

What should I watch next? Hmmm.... let's see...

The Princess Hours is definitely my fave amongst all Korean dramas ever shown here in the Phils. I even bought a DVD copy and cried on all the number of times I've watched it. LoL!
