Living in K-drama world

I’ve watched all kinds of korean dramas may it be suspense, historical, action or rom-com. Whenever I start watching it  I always get hooked to it. I’ve always loved their killer smiles and love team chemistries. I was able to finish three “major-major” top korean dramas recently. For your information, I have always been a Lee Min Ho fan and I have watched most of his dramas (though not yet the City Hunter- I don’t know why). Anyway, since I’ve finished the top 3 dramas for the first quarter of the year. Somehow I dreamed to be one of their leading lady. 

So here it goes,

Every lady wishes to have a guy friend whom you can smirk with, punched on, get mad, and a shoulder to lean on.   Kim Bok Joo’s friend – Joon Hyung – is a friend you can trust and do without worrying your poise and all that. She was a jealous gf when Joon Hyung who is very close to him. Funny it was when they tried to be discreet yet they can’t. Until their friends finally found out. This is a very light teenage story. 

I ‘hoped’ I can be like Kim Bok Joo who lifts a heavy barbel and still maintains a weight limit. Haha

We also go tough situations and even that happens, we also fight for things we know that is rightfully ours even it takes us miles away from home. Our Sim Cheong swam around far places to look for Joon Hae after she erasing the memories they had in Europe. It really broke my heart for what Cheong had to do in order to protect Joon Hae but love wins. Even she had to erase AGAIN his memories due to long stay on earth, Joon Hae were able to write all his spent time with Cheong in a journal. He had to suffer while waiting, looking for answers of all his missing memories but all the while he had them on his journal. Her gift of removing memories took advantage to their enemies but she didn’t succeed on Joon Hae’s. What a relief! 

I ‘hoped’ for Cheong’s gift of removing memories so I could forget some past hurts too. Thank God I don’t have because through my past aches I learned to become a strong woman. But I also wished that I could earn money through tears so it could turn into pearl and sell it. HAHA

The latest drama I’ve watched is Goblin and I finished crying!!!! This story has a lot of twist, there’s friendship, family, a love to conquer, and past-present turns. I’m not sure if all the “reincarnation” is true but it really affected me when Goblin had to suffer all the “waiting” for his Goblin’s bride ONLY to remove the sword of eternity. What a heartbreaking news it was for Eun Tak when she already developed feelings for this handsome Goblin. Nevertheless, as fate is to be unfold, what is already written by God cannot be change. Even after withdrawing the sword from Kim Dhin’s chest. it took Eun Tak years to recover from her unknown cause of her pain. When her memories were erased she looked for answers trying to figure out who was the “him” on her journal. Until, fate moved and Kim Shin appeared again by Eun Tak’s blowed candle. I shed tears when Eun Tak was having distress from her sleep and she called on to Kim Shin. “I am scared that you might leave me again” – Eun Tak. I felt her right there and then. The fear of losing someone you love but missing soul has its own destiny. But Kim Shin didn’t stop pursuing her. When Eun Tak’s time came, it really broke my heart! Most espescially to Kim Shin. He had to wait again for the reincarnation of Eun Tak and grateful that the ending didn’t disappoint me. 

I ‘hope’ I can be like Eun Tak who was so sure of his destined man that she doesn’t have to wait for some other men . I hope that I could only blow a match and my superman would appear right in front of me. I hope. But there’s this real world I’m facing right now which makes me feel more challenged. Waiting is not an easy task but I know everything will be worth the wait just like Kim Shin, Cheong, Joon Hae, Joon Hyung, and Bok Joo did. Because what is yours is already yours.

Love has its own reasons. Love is a decision. Love conquers everthing.

Lee Min Ho’s first visit in the Philippines

Well, don’t push me with the ‘idolatry’, I’m still a fan of a good person and well one of the most handsome man on the planet. This has finally come to my mind to start a blog of my once in a lifetime experience of seeing one of my most favorite Korean actor (I hope not just once…) When I heard that Lee Min Ho was given a privilege to be the newest global bench setter, my initial reaction was “Weh? Seriously? He will come and visit his fans too.” Then I said a little prayer to God. I wasn’t expecting that much that I am really going to see him, the security rest in God alone. Its okay with me if I’m not going to see him but the sighs were there. Then one of my Ate posted a link to one of her members, also a fan of Lee Min ho, I commented also on that link and shared all my feelings. Then her member, Ate Ruth, PMed me and asked me if “Are you going to do whatever it takes to attend his visit?” And I assertively answered her, “Yes Ate, most willing to attend.” It took her one to two days to reply with my reaction. After two days, she finally got me with an answer that “Shek, I got you invite for Lee Min Ho’s visit. Lower box lang tayo.” Then my initial reaction was, of course, speechless! That moment I really screamed that my siblings were annoyed and shocked what happened to me. I was like “God, thank you so much for this blessing!” then I thank Ate Ruth for it. That was the most impossible thing that could happen to me because I am not hat person that would spend a peso just for an idol, and if it cost too much! i believe God made it a way for me to unwind and forget all the happenings in the past and it was also one of my realization to really appreciate God’s simplest ways of His blessings.

Its been three weeks of waiting since I received that gift. The long wait has finally over. November 16, 2012 this is the day the Lord has made. Heart is everywhere. My heart was pumping so fast and my status in FB was all about Lee Min Ho. So, Ate Ruth and her friends went to Cubao early to change the invite to ticket, the event will start at 7pm but we have to be early because of the line. I arrived at Cubao around 3:00pm the line was all over the Araneta Coliseum. Oh by the way, it was also my first time to enter the Coliseum literally! HAHA. So see how God move and answer our prayers? Nothing is impossible! 🙂

While waiting I tried to just tour my beloved tambay place when I was still a Trinitian for two years in college- Gateway. Well there are places that hasn’t change. I just really missed the place. I bought Burger Kings’s burger and hershey sundae. So yummy!

Then the long wait is finally over indeed. The long line subsides every 10minutes. What do we expect? They didn’t started at the exact time given. The crowd started to shout “7 na! 7 na! 7 na!” and “Lee Min Ho! Lee Min Ho!” while I was shouting “Ilabas na! Ilabas na!” (Take him out! take him out!). The technical kept on flashing the beauty poses of Lee Min Ho on the screen while we were all waiting for him. The MC, Hanz, tries to entertain us by being a joker and make us all laugh even at the most intense moment of our lives that we really want to see him!!! Then there is the countdown and video of Lee Min Ho coming on stage. After the countdown, guess what? NO LEE MIN HO! There were some intermission number first, like some impersonators dances and sang wondergirls, 2nu1’s and Oppa Gangnam style. Then after all the intermission number Sam Oh went out and called out Lee Min Ho’s on stage with matching fire and fog. All the ladies were screaming the crowd was wild!!! REALLY! Even I became so wild! 🙂

All in all, even I wasn’t in the patron its okay, to see him in a natural and gentleman way is enough for me. The screen was very helpful, saw his perfect-killer smile. He was interviewed, we suggested Adobo for his dinner. We just kept on screaming and shouting even while he was talking! He even had the guts to have the concern for his fans at the patron standing if they are doing okay because they don’t look okay. 🙂 After the one of the most unforgettable event in my life, I find it so sad, I was in teary eyes when he was waving goodbye to us. He manage to wave at our side. He tried his best to really entertain us with his good looking stature.

I found good in goodbyes though

here’s his photo with us on the screen. HUHU. T.T

this is the lady that gave me the chance to see my long time crush! 🙂

But of course, I thank Ate Ruth for giving me that opportunity to see one my most favorite korean actor and to just see his perfect-killer smile. I thanked God the whole time. Really! All the impossibilities came possible because of the “doubted” prayers.  He was able to touch the heart of Ate Ruth and consider me to get an invite! I am just really blessed that walking by faith is indeed walking with the Creator of EVERYTHING. After the event, the huge christmas tree at Gateway was lighted and it was very beautiful 😀

I will never forget to acknowledge the real source of my countless blessings in my life 🙂 Thank You Abba for everything
