Yoona And Jun Ho Shared A Passionate Kiss In King the Land Episodes 7 & 8

We are already halfway through the series and so I'm happy that aside from the progress Gu Won made with his relationship with Sa Rang, Gu Won also found himself an ambition. Before, Gu Won was like a happy-go-lucky kind of person and doesn't really care about family business but after he met Sa Rang, this attitude changed. Also, typical for a chaebol character, Gu Won was able to meet the real world because of Sa Rang. He managed to experience and eat a lot of things that a commoner or simple citizen go through. Finally he's a full pledged human being on planet earth. It was indeed a good point in his life that he met someone like Sa Rang. 

That kissing scene though, is something we should talk about. I think they managed to finish a song before the ending credits and ads rolled/popped out. lol Kissing in the rain, who wants that anymore? We're gonna aim that kissing in the sprinkler scenario! kkk 

Other thing that I won't get tired saying every reaction posts I'll publish here is the fact that I envy Sa Rang's friendship. I mean, anyone who has those kinds of friends will never be alone... I assume? Their friendship didn't end when their youth was gone. Actually, all three of them feels like they're forever young with how much they enjoy each other and have some fun whenever all 3 of them are together. Despite the hardships of being a working adult, they still make time to get together. Da Eul for example. She already has a family of her own, managing a work and a household but never forget to visit her two friends to hang out with them. Ain't that a beautiful friendship? huhu 

Speaking of Da Eul, Da Eul's husband is lazy AF! This is one of the reasons why I don't want to get married. Being stuck with an asshole and a lazy bum. Geez, I just really wish that the person I will marry will be the one that I will cherish forever and not regret in the end. Please God, I beg you. 

Junho Is A Prince Charming Saving Yoona From Danger In King the Land Episode 5

Oh my God, King the Land is becoming a fairytale-like drama and am so up for it. Gu Won is definitely a prince charming willing to save the poor princess from all harms. How can we not fall in love with a male lead like that?

Despite having self issues like his temper, grumpiness and occasional anxiety, Gu Won could still be the perfect prince to any vulnerable girl and that is Sa Rang for this case. 

Sa Rang going through a hard time because of a recent heartbreak and trying to prove herself as a new employee surrounded by ill-minded people, it wouldn't be surprising if her heart goes wild after Gu Won making efforts for her. 

I think Sa Rang is Gu Won's first love. That's the only explanation as to why he doesn't know how to act normally around the girl he's liking. Typical for any Kdrama with young man from a chaebol family as the lead protagonist. But despite this clichè theme, I find it irresistible not to watch. I mean, it's always entertaining and heart fulfilling watching such scenes where unimaginable events happen, right? Our love life fantasies, happening in this drama... that's a sight to see! 

That ending scene where Gu Won entered with the helicopter just to save Sa Rang. Would that happen in real life? Nu-uh! And that's what this drama is all about, to show how our fantasies look like because it won't ever happen in real life. Sad but cute! Lol

Junho Fell Hard On Yoona's Charms In King the Land Episode 4

I'm not commenting about it before but as time passes by, this half sister of Gu Won irks me so much. I'm just disregarding her rudeness to Gu Won before because she's the one who hired Sa Rang. But the more I watch her true colors coming out, I can't help but finally call her out. Sigh, poor Gu Won. I wonder what happened inside their family. Gu Won seemed to be the one oppressed here. 

Anyways, King the Land is crawling up to my favorite rom-com drama right now. I am so happy that new flavors are blooming in the story. Gu Won's family concerns, Sa Rang's love life, Sa Rang's friends and Gu Won's adventure in pursuing Sa Rang! Speaking of which, Gu Won being crazy in love with Sa Rang, his behaviour changing positively was just so adorable to watch! The scene where Gu Won got caught by the police on the road was hilarious! Instead of giving him a ticket for a violation, he gave him love advices which our cute and adorable Gu Won took by the heart. The police even earned Gu Won's respect and even did a 90deg bow from him. Hahaha! 

On the other hand, let's talk about Sa Rang's ex boyfriend. Seriously, how can he be so dumb? Sa Rang was already telling him straight and clear that she doesn't want to be with him anymore because he doesn't give her importance during their relationship! Despite Sa Rang's sadness and rage, he was still behaving like his usual setting aside her feelings and focus on his. He could be everyone's boyfriend now for all I care, I just want him out of Sa Rang's life. He doesn't deserve her at all.

Junho Crushing On Yoona And Experiencing Heartbreak In King the Land Episode 3

Gu Won acting all high and mighty during the live broadcast surely irritated me. Lol I know that he's going through something but his attitude and rudeness got into me already. Thankfully, he managed to save his ass from my hatred after the boat's captain scammed them. Wait, that sounds so wrong but anyways they finally had some time alone together which made them get to know each other. 

It's always thanks to the alcohol that makes one vulgar with their feelings. Let's say it's the alcohol that's talking but it seemed like Gu Won caught some feelings towards Sa Rang. After finally understanding why Sa Rang behaved the way she is, Gu Won had always been staring at her. Even when he got back in his office, all he ever did was look into the photos that were taken during their trip. The scene where he's in awe looking at the photo of a smiling Sarang made me melt. It was so adorable and cute! 

But what made me really laugh out loud in this episode was when the photoshopped version of Gu Won's photos were revealed. Hahaha! It was so funny! 

Sa Rang finally became an employee at King Hotel and Gu Won got a glimpse of her after resolving his feelings for her. At first he was all shy because he indeed found out that he's crushing on her. He wanted to approach her with some macarons and when he's about to call her Sa Rang's ex-boyfriend came out of nowhere and embraced her. WTF! Wait, is he now an ex-boyfriend or not? I hope that they're thru because that man ain't good at treating his girlfriend the way she should be treated. Ugh. 

Anyways, I hope this would be cleared in the next episode but upon checking the preview it seems like Gu Won would go after Sa Rang which means this hindrance of Sarang's ex/boyfriend got resolved right?! Yay!

See You in My 10th Life And King the Land Weekend Dramas Get Off To A Strong Start!

The two new weekend Kdramas See You in My 19th Life and King the Land started off strong with their respective nationwide viewership ratings. See You in My 19th Life garnered 4.27% on its first episode while King the Land has 5.08%. Their 2nd episode tops their first episodes too telling us all how well received their pilot episode became. See You in My 19th Life had 5.49% on its 2nd episode while King the Land has 7.54% nationwide viewership ratings. 

King the Land airs 10:30pm KST every Saturday-Sunday on JTBC while See You in My 19th Life airs 9:10pm KST on tvN. They are of different time slots, thank goodness but competition on which weekend drama is the strongest will still remain for the two. As of now, King the Land is more well received by the viewers judging by their ratings. 

However, if I'll pick between the two, I think I prefer See You in My 19th Life more than King the Land. Maybe because it has less predictability on how the story would unfold. I find the plot of See You in My 19th Life more interesting since we're looking at fantasy where it requires us to be curious behind the mystery of reincarnation. They are both set-up in the modern world but SYM19L flashback brings us to different eras which is much more interesting. But hey, we're still at episode 2 so my preference might change as more episodes of each dramas comes out. Let's stay tuned!

Junho Caught In A Trance By Yoona In King the Land Episode 2

King the Land has the usual Kdrama trope of employer x employee/enemies to lover but I can't help but stay with it just because there is so much visual delicacies being served by the two main protagonists. Junho, despite wearing different type of suits repeatedly, still looked handsome and fresh whenever he goes out while Yoona and her smile makes the whole series brighter than daylight. I know I should be focusing on the plot but I can't help it with these two, god and goddess of beauty. Well, maybe I'm still satisfied now because aside from what I've mentioned, they really have good acting skills as well. These two are well known as 2nd generation idols but they've also been into different hit dramas separately as well. So basically, they know what they are doing now with their acting so it's really easy to watch them. 

Anyways, Episode 2, Sa Rang will work closer to Gu Won in handling events for the King Hotel and their first mission together was to make the interview broadcast/getaway be successful. Soon, their hearts will beat for each other as they spend time together. The first sign of falling in love is becoming obvious now which is getting caught in a trance by the other. What's really interesting here is that, we got 2 versions of this in only 1 episode. The version of Gu Won caught in a trance by Sa Rang and vice versa. Hahaha! The predictability of this drama is slowly crawling on the surface but hopefully there are added flavors to the drama so I won't drop this along the way.

I think this drama also possesses side characters that have potential to make it more interesting. I'm eyeing Sang Sik (Gu Won's secretary) and Su Mi (Sa Rang's manager) love story. Haha! This one is hilarious AF! Also we have Sa Rang's friends to entertain us as well. I hope the story would flow flawlessly. Pretty please! 

Junho Caught Yoona In An Embarrassing Moment In King The Land Episode 1

Seems like we're getting new dramas setting on a corporate world like this one King the Land and See You in My 19th Life. The male protagonists are both part of the high society which are owners of corporations.

Anyways, I watched the first episode of King the Land today and so far so good. My second generation idols turned actors SNSD's Yoona and 2pm's Junho. These two hot celebrities were always paired up because of their ethereal visuals and statures ever since. They performed twice already in year-end concerts/programs that did not missed to trend, the public really wanted them together. And so finally they are together in a drama after all these exposures. I won't deny it, they really have chemistry and I think it's impossible not to see that at all. They're both gorgeous AF!

Cheon Sa-Rang (Yoona) was hired in King Hotel where Gu Won's (Junho) sister is the director. His sister saw potential in Sarang which made it easier for her to get promoted as lobby attendant. Meanwhile Sa-Rang had a not so good encounter with Gu Won due to the 'tiger shirt' incident. lol And now they will again after several years that passed in yet another not so good situation wherein Sa Rang used the toilet where Gu Won was staying. She got busted quickly after playing with the tempered glass partition of Gu Won's toilet. kkk Imagine a good looking guy like him watching you poop. hahaha! Dang!
