♥why i like you 니가 좋은 이유

all we've been through.

So there's Jisung as the male lead (I found him rather familiar looking, googled him and realised that he acted in Save the Last Dance for Me!), Choi Kang Hee as the female lead (whom i don't really know, haven't watched any of her previous works either), and Jaejoong as the third party!

(I'm definitely biased towards Jaejoong since 1. I started watching the drama because of him 2. He happens to be the first TVXQ member who i found to be good looking 3. I like his character! kinda.)

ANYWAY I read the wikidrama's synopsis of the drama which is like this:

like, yeah, typical "poor sweet-but-tough girl and rich-spoilt-only-son guy fall in love with each other", the typical cinderella story! Which i really like(well, depends on the drama too though), and unfortunately DOES NOT happen in real life. My Korean teacher said that's the reason why there are so many KDramas which talk about such stuff.

But then I watched Simon and Martina's review, and many people seemed to like this drama, so I decided to watch it (like yesterday) and wow. I want to finish the whole series ASAP!!!!

So it kinda seems like Secret Garden, I mean look at the similarities between Cha Ji Heon (male lead of PTB) and Kim Joo Won (SG)! Rich, but don't really work (though i must say that at least the latter seems more useful to the company, have parents who prevent them from liking the girl they like. And the girls, Noh EunSeol(PTB) and Gil RaIm(SG), both know how to fight WELL..and they're poor hence they both live with their good friends in a small apartment(?).

And the male leads "rely" heavily on the female leads. And they happen to have female 3rd parties who look irritating with their too-big eyes and spoilt-brat personalities(hehe).

but that's it (I suppose).

Cha Ji Heon comes across to me as a childish clean-freak who doesn't know how to read faces, how to react in certain situations, and honestly he gets on my nerves sometimes. Ji Heon is kinda scared of many things (panic disorder), but he somehow gets into trouble often enough to make his cousin Mu Won (Jaejoong) to find a tough secretary for him! A tough girl who doesn't have a good background nor education (this is one of the must-haves in korean dramas), and stands up for herself and others. Mu Won finds her interesting, hires her, and everyone in the office thinks that she must have gotten in through connections. and after some events, she's prompted by her manager of the department to resign, only to have Mu Won and Ji Heon protect her job.

Ji Heon and Mu Won aren't exactly good buddies too, with Mu Won being the perfect OmChinAh (which means mother's friend's son) and Ji Heon being the good-for-nothing son who always gets compared to Mu Won. JiHeon's dad and Mu Won's mum are also "enemies", which i don't know why since i'm only at episode 7.

so obviously, they and EunSeol end up in a love triangle with an extra female outisde of the triangle (LOL confusing, but their relationship isn't a square one anyway).

I'm on Episode 7 now and i've yet to figure out if Mu Won really likes EunSeol!

I suppose it's their interactions with one another that make this drama fun to watch. Also the weird personalities of people like the extra female (Whom i shall call IceCream Girl), Mu Won's mother, and Ji Heon's father that give me more reason to finish watching the drama ASAP!

I can't talk about anything else since i'll be going into the plot (and i've yet to finish watching it too) so that's it!

But i will mention again that i like it when the two cousins fight, it's childishly cute HAHA :D

A must watch!

(and i shall repeat again that i can't wait for poseidon to start broadcasting, haha!)
