Lee Min Ho in Manila 2014

Last February a very shocking announcement from Bench and Wilbros had made me heart-attack. And I'm sure people out there who loves him had felt it too. A sudden post that Lee Min Ho is coming back to Manila in March 2014! Who wouldn't be surprised by that?! Especially if it's a month to go and further details has to be announced yet. First time I knew it I really wanted to go, forgetting that it's not in my budget that time as I have a Macau tour this March. But as days passes I admit I waver because I really needed to save for my trip. But how can I resist him? I just can't. So, I pushed it till the end.

It happened last Friday night, March 21 which is my birthday at Smart Araneta Coliseum where his first fan meeting in Manila was also held. Because of that I have to move my plans celebrating my birthday with my family to the next day. But that was okay, we were able to watch pyrolympics at sm moa. And I enjoyed that day spending time with my k-pop friends as well.

I also think of it as another gift from God. Bringing Min Ho back to Manila on my birthday. This birthday is really awesome. Just to bad because I was not that blessed that day. Again, I didn't have the chance to get close to him. Kahit selfie lang wala. Poor me. :(

Going back, I think the first fan meet was better. There were more contests and prizes of getting close to Min Ho. I think it's more fun. And, it's still better to draw winners through electronic raffle than selecting on the audience. Pano naman yung mga fans sa malayong seats, right? What I like most in the mechanics of going to his fan meet is to just buy products of Bench worth 1,600 pesos for patron and exchange to free tickets. At least it's not that pricey. It's like a bonus when you shop.

Regarding the fan meet again, what I mostly enjoyed in this fan meet was the performance of Philippine All Star who danced to the latest K-pop hits. Geurigo, Min Ho learning Tagalog phrases and him teaching the crowd of Korean phrases. The question and answer where we saw his perv side but still cute. Hehehe. Asked if he would be invisible what place would he go, he answered to the women's public bathhouse. Why? Because he wants to know what women are doing inside. As for the creative contest where it's like he's choosing his date depending on the creative answers of the three girls, I think I really should be there. I came up with creative answers easily.

Firstly, I am so  in love with Lee Min Ho because.... I just love him. And I prefer to come to his buwis-buhay fan meet on my birthday rather than relaxing and celebrating at home.

Secondly, what role would I put him if I'll be the director/producer for his next project? Instead of a prince, I would prefer the king. Or a kontrabida (antagonist) or someone who's evil but will turn into a good man after meeting his girl. I think this kind of role will make him more versatile. Isn't it? :) And I like to see him again doing some action like what he did in City Hunter. He's really cool there. It's the drama that made me crazy about him.

Thirdly, where will I bring him if we were to go on a date? Simply, Manila. Why? It's were I live. I want him to experience living the life of common people. Why? Because I bet it's the thing that he hardly do. And isn't it that he like to have a chat with common fans comfortably? I would love to see him riding a jeepney and kalesa. Especially if he will pass the fare of riders to the driver. Bayad po. (imagining)

So, those were my answer if I was chosen. Kaya lang hindi eh, kaya dito na lang.

The show ended in an hour. He sang a ballad song and waved goodbye.

I prefer looking at him personally than on screen. He's much better on person. I'm happy that this time I am closer to the stage than before. I hope next time I'll be at the backstage or at the very front of the stage or to get a chance to be on stage with him at least. Haha.

He will stay in Manila for three days doing interviews, endorsements and mall shows. I hope he'll get some rest at least. He's been so busy lately. And he just came to Manila on the day of his fan meet. Mr. Ben Chan, don't stress him too much please. :)

I hope he'll be on Macau too when I go there. I would like to see him again.
How I wish, right?! Haha

The Master's Sun... Super love for the year 2013!

The Master's Sun

Yi Ryeong, Joong Won, Tae Yang, Kang Woo

My favorite drama of the year. Fortunately I decided to watch it before the year ends. At least there's one more beautiful drama to remember for the year 2013. A very entertaining, scary and romantic drama which you'll want to see over and over again. Scary on the first episodes but it'll get a little lighter later on. Or maybe you'll just get used to it, of the ghosts popping anywhere, anytime with the lead. And besides though it's a bit of a horror genre, you'll like the stories and get touched of those ghosts that the lead can see. I also love how the two leads fell in love with each other.

Tae Yang likes holding hands with Joong Won while sleeping

Starring So Ji Sub as CEO Joo Joong Woon and Gong Hyo Jin as Tae Gong Shil or Tae Yang as they call her which means "sun". Although these people are new to me, seeing them the first time made me love them. They look good together and they got me lots of  butterflies in my stomach (super kilig). Especially on the scenes when they do unusual things that shows care and concern for each other particularly Joong Woon to Tae Yang. And also, I like the funny scenes like when Tae Yang got drunk and different spirits enter her body. She became a dog, a cat, a French lady, a kid and a lot more. It's really funny. To drive those spirits away of Tae Yang's body, Joong Won would hold her hand and sleep together.

The story goes with a girl who was able to see ghosts after she got into an accident, met a greedy CEO who own malls and hotels in Korea on a rainy night after doing a favor for one of the ghost who consistently bugs her. As she accidentally touched the CEO, the ghost disappeared. Another incident happened again when she was being chased by the lady ghost, the CEO watched her running and came to her and then when she

hugged him the ghost disappeared. Tae Yang realized then that the CEO was her safe hide out from those ghosts. Whenever she touches him, the ghosts just vanishes away. So she follows around the CEO and even got a job in his company. From a mall cleaner she was made into a special customer care representative wherein her special customer are all ghosts. The CEO believed her ability of seeing ghosts and even help her on her ghost missions. Swearing that she'll never like Tae Yang, he was  unconsciously slowly developing feelings for her. Whenever Tae Yang looks scared, he offers himself to be touched by Tae Yang and sometimes he just hugs her. They
became really close and got to share their weaknesses with each other. One time, when Tae Yang was doing a favor for one of the ghosts, she was harassed by a man and by the time the man will stabbed her the CEO came to the rescue. Tae Yang met the CEO's spirit confessing "Saranghae" to her and then he was gone. This was a very heartbreaking scene. She thought he was dead. And he thought he was dead too.  But when she found out that the body was still alive, she sacrificed herself to call the spirit of Joong Won back to his body. When Joong Won woke up he doesn't remember anything about Tae Yang. But whenever she sees her, he felt something in his heart. Joong Won then found his missing memories later on. But Tae Yang wants to go away from him. She doesn't want Joong Won to be harmed again because of her. And also, she wanted to be a normal person and to do that she had to find out what made her to see ghosts when she woke up after her accident. A year later they met again. Tae Yang became a better and successful woman. But her ability to see ghosts remains. She and the CEO dated and became couples for real.

I like it when he kiss her like that. So sweet. :)

Aside from the two leads, there are other stories in the drama that was cute too. I just didn't mention them but I also like Kang Woo and Yi Ryeong's story. I wanted this drama to have a part 2 but if it'll just ruin it like the other drama that has a part 2, then I'm okay with this. I hope this will also get aired in the Philippines. I like this drama more than The Heirs. The lead girl may not be as popular as Park Shin Hye overseas and as pretty as her, but I like her charm as she portrayed Tae Gong Shil than PSH's Cha Eun Sang.The trademark I'll remember about Joong Won from this drama is his "ko jo" meaning get lost and the way his hand moves with it. And I remember Tae Yang would never go and will always come instead.

This drama has also pretty soundtracks. I love listening to those. You'll really get moved by it. I really recommend this drama to everyone. I'm pretty sure one who watches this will love it too.

I will leave videos of this drama for me to remember it someday and for the others to enjoy.

Touch Love by Yoon Mi Rae. Super sweet song.

You and I by Hong Dae Kwang. This was usully played with Kang Woo and Yi Ryeong in the drama. Just can't find videos of those two.

Day and Night by Gummy. So emotional song.

Hyorin of Sistar's Carzy of You. Another emotional song from the drama.          

Enjoy!
