Our thought on Mother

Sep 1, 2010 Author: daiko | Filed under: movie review

Fueled by Won Bin’s current huge success with his action thriller movie Ajuhssi / The Man From Nowhere, we watched his previous movie, titled Mother as a consolation because we still have to wait to see Ajuhssi.
Released last year, and directed by  famous Korean director Bong Joon Ho (Host, Memories of Murder), Mother already won many awards and went to many film festival, from Cannes to Hawaii.

Movie opened with an old woman walked in a grassland. Then she stopped for a while and all of sudden, she danced along with the music . (From how she danced, we knew she was a great actress).

Sungkyunkwan Scandal scored poor rating

Sep 1, 2010 Author: daiko | Filed under: korean drama

Micky Yoochun’s debut drama, Sungkyunkwan Scandal (SS) premiered last Monday and Tuesday with poor single digit rating, 7.7% for Monday and 7.2% for Tuesday according to TNS  Media.

It’s a decline from it’s predecessor, also a saeguk, Gumiho Tale of the Fox Child who open with 8.7 % and close with 16.1%.

We surprised with the rating outcome,  turned out that Micky Yoochun name as famous K-pop TVXQ singer didn’t help.

Also add our surprise, we watched the first and second episode and we can say that SS did not disappoint us.
We loved it.

We’ve fallen in love with the chemistry build by Micky Yoochun and Park Min Young. We are rooting for them .
Beside, Micky Yoochun’s debut acting is quite good, beyond our expectation.
Song Joong Ki did a challenging acting as a playboy student and we thought he delivered it.
Another actors  also did not disappoint and we didn’t find any big flaw.

So, hopefully, SS will grow in rating as has been done by it’s predecessor. Fighting SS !
