"My Name is Kim San Soon" is a korean drama which I am watching recently. Actually I used to watch Japanese drama more than Korean drama because I think the story line of Korean drama is quite slow and boring, unlike Japanese drama which is usually short and clear. And usually I watch korean drama is just because of the heros or heroins are 'leng chai' and 'leng lui'.
After studying in IMU, I seldom watch korean drama. I like to watch funny funny shows instead of those boring boring show with a lot of tears. However, recently I found some of the korean dramas are quite funny.
Recent watched korean drama include "Full House" and "Miss Kim's Million Dollar Quest" only. (I didn't include those I watched only a few episodes.) "Miss Kim" was a really funny drama, somemore got Ji Jin-Hee staring in the drama.... really enjoyed watching it. "Full House" was initially quite funny, but till the middle to the end, it became quite boring, and also some part I couldn't really understand.
And now, I am watching "My Name is Kim San Soon", which is a very very funny drama. I highly recommend you to watch this drama. I don't know how to explain how interesting the drama is, but I just can't stop watching it. Now I just finished watching episode 13, haven't finished downloading the other episodes. Can't wait to know the ending... 40 hours 42 minutes and 15 seconds left... dl faster and faster...PLS!!!!
This drama talks about a 30 year-old lady who is quite fat. She was dumped by her bf on Christmas eve, and on the same day, she met this guy (who is very handsome). Then she worked for this guy and the story goes on and on.... try to be a bit mysterious here... haha...
Now to analyze why am I so craze for this drama:
1) There are a lot of handsome actors, including Hyun Bin, Daniel (this korean Daniel look like the Hong Kong's Daniel Wu), the ex bf oso look good too... can't understand why such an ordinary and fat lady surrounded by all these handsome guys?
2) Funny... The heroin always hit the hero, pity him!!! But I like to watch those scenes when she is hitting him... haha... maybe I got abit "nue4 dai4 kuang3"..
3) Some scenes are quite touching... especially when the hero trying to confess, with his handsome face... wow!! really kill me, man!!!!
Aaahh.... cant wait to watch the next episode!!!
Just found out the sypnosis of this drama:
