You Who Came From The Stars









      

        Another Korean drama entitled “My Love From Another Star’ became a trend on the television. The dramatic and humorous drama makes the viewers feel hilarious about the epic combination of scenes which hooks them up. The main cast includes Kim Soo-hyun as Do Min-joon who’s a cold and distant guy, Jun Ji-hyun as Cheon Song-yi who’s a top celebrity actress, Park Hae-jin as Lee Hwi-kyung who’s love for Song-yi never faded, and Yoo In-na as Yoo Se-mi who’s Song-yi’s bestfriend that envies her. The plot is very remarkable because it’s about two lovers with different worlds.


        An unforgettable quote given by Do Min-joon was, “If it is supposed to happen, it will happen. Earthlings call it fate.” Yes it was indeed fate that led him to Earth. He was an extraterrestrial being who accidentally crashed on Earth during the Joseon era in Korea. Well, just like a typical alien he has supernatural powers like enhanced vision, hearing and agility. He stayed on earth for almost 400 years until the present day and works as a professor in a university.


        It was fate that destined Do Min-joon And Cheon Song-yi. He then recalls that Song-yi resembles his first love during the Joseon era who died saving him. Song-yi is a successful actress, she is very blunt and thinks that all men are interested in her. When she meets Min-joon her perpective about men interested in her fell apart. That’s when she tries very hard to catch his attention but ended up falling for him and planned to make him fall for her too.


      What’s spectacular about this drama is that the way how the story goes and its scenes are just too amusing and it never fails to surprise and infatuate the viewers. There may be obstacles in the end that will affect you emotionally but the ending is sweet. The thing is, people might be unique in their own but their differences makes them compatible to each other. If you truly love a person you won’t care who and what he/she is as long as your feelings are mutual it would suffice. Obstacles in a relationship won’t be absent but you’ll just have to face it together to surpass and make your bond stronger.

THE HEIRS









Written at the end of Kim Tan’s journal the professor read, “One who wants to wear the crown, bears the crown.” The quote simply captures the attention of the professor and wonders what Kim Tan wrote implies. Kim Tan knew that very moment he had to go back and manage to handle the dilemma between him and his older brother. He thought countless of times why his brother gives him a cold shoulder but in fact he loves him dearly and thinks high of him. Everything changes when he leaves and love sometimes can be unexpected and it grabbed him to fall for it.

            The series entitled as ‘The Heirs’ is a story about a group of prosperous, affluent, and upper class students in which are about to inherit the business empire of their family. These students attends to  Empire High, a school exclusively for them.  There is a hierarchy within the students: the "Management Succession Group" at the top, in which Kim Tan (Lee Min Ho), Rachel Yoo (Kim Ji Won), and Choi Young Do (Kim Woo-bin) belong, then the "Stock Shares Inheritance Group", with people such as Lee Bo Na (Krystal Jung), the "Honor Inheritance Group", with Jo Myung Soo (Park Hyung Shik) and Lee Hyo Shin (Kang Ha Neul), and the "Social Care Group" at the bottom, in which Cha Eun Sang (Park Shin Hye) and Yoon Chan Young (Kang Min-hyuk) are both part of. The students which belong to the “Social Care Group” are usually being bullied. But among those students Cha Eun Sang (Park Shin Hye) has never revealed she was part of that group for she was being protected by her knight and shining armor Kim Tan (Lee Min Ho).

            This romantic drama starts when Kim Tan being exiled in California meets the girl named Cha Eun Sang who’s also from Korea. Cha Eun Sang searching for her sister in California knew that time her sister was lying. A boy named Jay who drunk was got her bean powder from her luggage sniffed it unknowingly that it wasn’t drugs. Allergic to bean powder Kim Tan his friend rushed him to the hospital together with Cha Eun Sang. And then to make the spoiler short Kim Tan offers Cha Eun Sang to stay in his house for a while because she had nowhere else to go. And it was destiny who made way for them to know each other.


            Gosh I really loved their scenes together when they were in California. When Kim Tan made her a sandwich, when Kim Tan brought her to his school, when they were running to avoid those who were chasing them, when they were wearing their couple shirts and the best part would be when Kim Tan asked Cha Eun Sang unconsciously in the movie theater, “Could it be I’m falling for you?” I would like to recommend this to those who are bored and nothing to do please do watch this. It would make you cry, infatuated, annoyed, irritated and etc. That’s what I felt all that time when I was watching the 20 episodes. You won’t regret watching it and for me it’s one of the best and my favorites.
