                                           marrying a millionaire

Exciting News! I just knew that Kim Ki Bum (the most handsome Korean Actor for meemoticon) is a part of the newest Koreanovela shown in ABS-CBN, he is the young Kim Hyun Joo in the much awaited show Marrying a Millionaire which is adapted in the show Joe Millionaire in America. This is the story of a girl who was selected to be a participant in the TV show. Although the women are not supposed to know that this millionaire of theirs is just a regular worker, Eun-young knows his true identity. Simple,  because Young-hoon (played by Kim Ki Bum) was her first love. After many years, they meet up again at a party. Although she didn’t recognize him at first, she realized it was the young boy she had fallen in love with back in middle school. Although she says she made a mistake in liking him, being in the show with him is bringing up warm feelings once again.  Wee, I’m so excited to finally see Kim Ki Bum on television. I’m glad that it is shown in ABS, team KAPAMILYA ako!emoticon

        Being bored this Sunday lead me to watch one of my favorite Japanese fictional drama, the Proposal of Daisakusen, though I already had seen the 11 episodes before, I still love the feeling of watching it over and over again!!

        Yamashita Tomohisa and Nagasawa Masami play a young man and woman who have been friends for seven years and who promised to be there for each other and take care each other. Yamashita’s character, Iwase Ken, is obstinate and unskilled in love, but he has fallen for the lively and cheerful woman, Yoshida Rei, played by Nagasawa, who is about to get married to her teacher in high school Fujiki Naohito as Tada Tetsuya. While attending the wedding ceremony, a sudden time slip sends the man back in time, giving him a second chance to do the right thing to make her his girlfriend. I was hoping for the second season of this drama because the ending for me was kind a hanging! Hallelujah Chanceemoticon!
