I’ve been following this SBS weekend drama (50 episodes) since day1, but now, I came to conclusion that I am super addicted to this drama, especially the main couple. Through their struggles, it seems like the writer wants us viewers to observe and learn how love develops in such circumstances. Happiness is in the eye of the beholder, but nonetheless, as long as love and trust are there, a relationship can survive even in its darkest hour.

I keep on bragging to everyone I know how much I adore the main couple, Jun Woo (JW) and Jin Joo (JJ). Their past and struggles brought them to where they are today, and somewhat, it gives me such inspirations to keep on moving forward no matter what you carry from the past. JW’s baggage, and past relationship (the hurt from first love) and JJ’s hardship past as a mixed Vietnamese born Korean girl, living all her life in Ho Chi Minh, Vietnam, to me, are so real. Each of them has their own baggage they carried into their marriage relationship, but I like how both of them overcome those and step up towards their life together as a married couple.

Just now, after watching Episode 35 (the most recent one, just aired last night in Korea), I’m so overwhelmed to see this particular scene… where the two of them are having a candlelight dinner (such a pretty and romantic atmosphere *melts* great job, Song Chang Eui!), and so I made a video cut and uploaded it to YouTube.

Love how they make use of Song Chang Eui (Jun Woo) hidden talent in singing while playing the piano. A guy who can play the piano while singing, woohoo… any girl would melt to that, of course ;] And JW surely is doing such a fantastic job in sweeping off his pretty wife’s feet! Hopefully there’ll be no ugly misunderstanding scenes between the couple, coz I know better from watching all these korean dramas, that the climax usually will affect the main couple if they’re already so happy on this early episodes. We still have 15 more episodes to go before it ends, so I’m still keeping my fingers crossed!

On the plate, triangular pizzas are Korean pancakes (Pajeon) with yellow peppers, green onions and spam.

Sitting on the chopsticks are last night leftover California Roll sushi (with imitation crab, cucumber and avocado), fried with Korean pancake mix batter that I made those pajeon with.
Must be this flour again next time. Love this flour. It’s so… workable, gooey and taste yummy too hehehehe…

I was watching Legend 10 tonite and there’s this one scene when Dam Duk and Sujini are talking, and Sujini asks him to look at her wound, around the back of her waist.
And she lifts up her shirt a bit, and sheepishly, DD looked away hehe..

Then, her lines are quite interesting… the way she answers him.

“I believe that the king should be like me.
If you become a king, man men will lose their lives.
What if there’s war?
If the king says, “Attack!”, thousands of soldiers will lose their lives for him.
If he gets discouraged each time someone dies, how would he be a king?”

(still no answer from DD)

“So you know,
A king should have…
He should have the ability to heal any wound in a day.
So the next day he can get up and do whatever he needs to do.
“Follow me! I’m the king!”
He’ll say that.

(still no response from DD)
(Sujini sulks, with that very cute pose.. omg she’s adorable!!)

Then she says,…
“I’ve spoken so many wise words, my head hurts.
I’m going to sleep now.”

Hahahahahahaha…..
Goodness, she’s TOO CUTE! =D

Here’s the cut file for this scene ^^
(translation above starts around midway)

Wow, this is cool.
I was just browsing around while listening to this David Benoit’s all-time fave song “Every Step Of The Way”

And found this site

Woohoo, he’ll be having a concert right on New Year’s Eve? O____________O Hmmmm…

Went to the Greek Theatre two years ago, and saw him with Kenny G.
Gosh, they both were superb!
David played this song too and my cousin in Singapore was soooo jealous *wink wink* haha..

Even though I prefer the classic one over this new generation of ipod nano, but still, isn’t this ipod nano so cute?? my goodness. How come something so small can give out such temptation and desire to just buy the darn thing tomorrow. Hahaha.

What strange is that I used to not care AT ALL about Ipod, but surprisingly, now, somehow… somewhat… that temptation comes along, and I really really really wanna have one. No, not the nano one, even though the red one is definitely the one I’d pick if someone would ask me, “which nano would you like me to buy you?” *smile* and I’d gladly say, “that red one please…” *kekeke* *sigh* the ipod classic is so sleek. I’d pick the white one any day.

OK. So, looks like I have to fork about 250-400 bucks to get one. Yikes.
Might as well wait till December since it’s almost holiday season anyway.
According to The Apple Store, 160 GB of Ipod Classic price is about $349 + tax. (and I have two choices; black or silver, which I don’t get why they don’t put the white one in there. Isn’t there a white? or is it vanished into thin air already?) *confused*

Next, the 80GB one, costs about $249 online, but I can get from COSTCO for $239.
Not that much different but double the storage,… hmm double space is always a plus.
40,000 songs for 160 GB compare to 20,000 song for 80GB
What a tiny lil storage for back-up all my mp3s and MVs =) sweeeet!

OK, back to earth. LOL.

Temptation (noun)
1. the act of tempting; enticement or allurement.
2. something that tempts, entices, or allures.
3. the fact or state of being tempted, esp. to evil.

LOL.
