The 1st Shop of Coffee Prince

Ive been staring at this compose blog entry page for so long. Id better start typing.

im not really a fan of koreanovelas. I love their movies though, but ive stayed loyal with Meteor Garden. I dont know if the appropriate term is "guilty pleasure" but i dont think its something that i should get embarassed from telling the world that i watch it. It's good. And ive been watching American series, so i dont think it makes any difference. maybe the mush, or the plot but compared to what Local Filipino series has to offer, id rather go singkit. And i dont watch the dubbed version. I think frequently hearing it and reading the subtitle makes you learn a bit of their language, plus you get to hear what they really sound like.

i finished the dvd ng two days lang. it has 17 episodes, 1-hour each and its REALLY GOOD. im not in the mood of giving a detailed review pero... it made me finish two rolls of tissue. sabi nga sa inyo mababaw ang luha ko. kiligin man o nakakaiyak, umiiyak talaga ako. basta gusto ko yung pinapanood ko.

the soundtrack is AMAZING. i even heard the wannadies' "you and me song" and one of blur's. From what ive read somewhere online, they released a 2-cd ost after the first, compiled by an indie korean artist Tearliner. Casker, and The Melody are some of the artists in the album which makes really great music. sana yung iba naiintindihan ko lang. Gong Yoo sang a part of Norul Sarang Hae, which had pretty mushy lyrics (idagdag mo pa yung eksena) that made me get the soundtrack.

If you enjoyed the story in My Sassy Girl, i think youll love this one too.

  4. Anyong Xav! You look like a korean in your pic. LOL.
    Well kanya-kanyang trip lang talaga. Whats the update with Ji Hyun Jun? Lam mo ba I bought my Sassy Girl CD movie sa isang Korean store sa Binondo July 2004 (di sya pirated ha). To think 2001 pa ata yung movie, same year ng release Meteor Garden in Taiwan. I really like the song "I believed". Then Jerry Yan also sang that song in one of their Pepsi concert in Hongkong...

  14. Oo kasi baka nakasilent si Resty. Sya pa ang mapapatay mo. Kilala kita kung magpalit ng tauhan eh. Para ka lang nagte-taste test.

    I don't like this. WOPST! Moving on.

  16. Coffee Prince is one of the very few korean series na talagang nagustuhan ko. =D I rarely watch korean series pero pinilit ako ng isa kong friend na panoorin kaya ko pinanood, at buti na lang pinilit niya ako. Haha. Ang cute ni Eun Chan at Han Kyul! =D

    I have the 1st OST (yung 1 cd lang), I've yet to get the one with 2 cds. I was able to find the original version of Norul Saranghae din, the song is really really nice, at ang sweet na wake up call yun for Eun Chan. Meron din ako nung kinanta nila sa streets, yung meron line na "You Fell In love With Me" Hehehe. Kung meron ka gusto na song na wala ka pa, hit me up, baka meron ako at i-share ko sayo. ;-)

  17. niiiiiiccceee. hindi ko nga lang alam kung anong song ang saang eksena. pero i got all of the cds. papanoorin ko uli with my ate para mas mapansin ko yung lahat. medyo nalunod kasi ako sa storya hahaha.

    ReplyDelete
  18. Hahaha sige, ako nga rin papanoorin ko ulit. =p
    You should watch din the Coffee Prince Special, ang cute ni Yoon Eun Hye, the actress playing Eun Chan, nung wrap up nila iyak siya ng iyak kasi she doesn't want to let go of her character Eun Chan daw. Awww. Haha!
