Ji Yeon Dream High 2 | Make-up Tutorial

Korean actresses often wear a beautiful and subtle make-up while acting in a drama and whenever I watch one I plan to do a tutorial for the look. There are quite a few looks I wanted to try but because I wore Ji Yeon's make-up a lot during the last couple of days I started with it. （￣ー￣）

I looked a few pictures up on google and chose these two for reference: 

You can clearly see the wing at the outer corners of her eyes are softer and less edgy and bold. Apart from her eye make-up it seems she doesn't wear anything else, at least it is not noticeable. But after seeing a few (Korean) make-up artists in action I can say with reasonable certainty Ji Yeon wears a highlighter, a light blush and a soft lip colour.

Drama of the week - Scent of a Woman

 (Source: mydramalist)

여인의 향기- Scent of a Woman "Scent of a Woman" deals with Lee Yeon Jae, a hard-working but not appreciated 30 year old woman. Yeon Jae is a total push over so she always runs after her colleagues and gets humiliated by them. Her whole life turns upside down when she finds out she has cancer and only around six months left. Yeon Jae decides to enjoy her life and makes a to-do-list with things she wants to do before she dies. Hence she resigns from her job and travels to Okinawa where she falls in love with the director of her former company, Gang Ji Uk.

The main actor is none other than Lee Dong Uk (이동욱,30),well-known for his roles in "Heartbreak Library", "My Girl" and "Partner". His acting skills are good enough to combine complexity and colour in his character and to prove that his character is not only a rich man without worries, but a caring person that changes a lot due to some circumstances. Lee Donk Uk plays Gang Ji Uk, the director of the travel company Yeon Jae used to work for. His father Gang Cheol Man, played by Lee Jeong Gil (이정길,67), tries to pitch his son into the arranged marriage with Im Se Gyeong, played by Seo Hyo Rim (서효,27). She is the daughter of a rich company president as well, but unlike Ji Uk totally spoiled, arrogant and egoistic.
Kim Seon A (김선아,36) took over the main female part as Lee Yeon Jae. Her acting is good, I only know her in this role, so I can't compare it to her roles in the past. Yeon Jae is quite annoying in the beginning but soon after she finds out about her cancer she changes- slowly. Nevertheless Seon A displays the character and her thoughts very well, Yeon Jae is dying with realism and restraint instead of being full of absurd girl dreams. Kim Seon A and Lee Dong Uk have an amazing chemistry in this drama, my favourite scene is the one in the tango room, I never saw such an intense dancing scene. Another important character is Chae Eun Seok, played by Eom Gi Jun (엄기준,36), who is not only Yeon Jaes doctor but also a childhood friend. He is neurotic and a bit socially awkward but he is the first drama-doctor who doesn't ignore his medical confidentiality.

Attention spoiler!!--> After watching "49 days" I changed my mind in terms of terminal illness dramas, even though I still don't want to watch them die. In "Scent of a Woman" the main point isn't her illness but how she deals with it and how it does change her life. While watching you learn a lot about appreciating your life and simple as it is, living it to the fullest without regrets. Yeon Jae and Ji Uk fall in love with each other so the latter one finds himself in a weird love triangle. On the one hand Yeon Jae, who is fatally ill but he doesn't know about it, on the other hand the arranged marriage with Se Gyeong, who he doesn't like but he does not want to disappoint his father (again). While he tries to become aware of his feelings Yeon Jae knows she won't have a future with Ji Uk, so the woman doesn't dare to dream of it either. Apart from her old friend and Eun Seok nobody knows she is ill. Yeon Jae doesn't want to tell her mother because her father already died of cancer when she was a teenager so she tries to hide her pain and act as normal as possible.
Her former colleagues learn to appreciate her and her work when Yeon Jae helps them out, she finds new friends in both the tango class and the hospital. When Hui Ju, a young 20 year old woman and a friend Yeon Jae makes in hospital, dies of cancer I was full of sorrow. Hui Ju is probably the strongest female character I saw so far in a korean drama. Aware of the fact she only has some weeks left she is full of joy and happiness and encourages other patients to laugh, love and live.
The story goes on and with it every character changes. Yeon Jae enjoys her life and tries to make her mother happy by finding her a new husband, Ji Uk learns to see the world and his life with different eyes, Eun Seok turns from a cold-hearted doctor to a caring and understanding one and Se Gyeong has to find out that she can't buy everything with the help of money. Ji Uks father opposes the relationship with Yeon Jae and soon after Ji Uk finds out she has cancer she abandons him because she doesn't want him to watch her die. However, this development happens in the last three episodes where Yeon Jae also finally tells her mother about her illness. The plot is very basic so the characters are given a lot of depth. Nothing happens without a reason, Eun Seoks screen time is not a waste of time because he is a necessary part of the drama. Same goes for Se Gyeong, she only turned into a psychotic and bitchy woman because of her exboyfriend who broke her heart and left her humiliated.
The drama doesn't end with Yeon Jaes death or with her sudden recovery but with her living an unknown future. Perhaps she has only some days left, perhaps another few weeks or even months. Yeon Jae doesn't care. Instead she writes another to-do list and enjoys every day she has left with her friends, family and Ji Uk.
I love this drama. It is not filled with lovey-dovey happy little girls who fall in love with rich guys and end up marrying them. You learn a lot about the values of life, it is realistic, not one of those teenager dramas I find really awkward and nasty. After finishing it I thought a lot about the meaning of life and asked myself whether I would be able to tell my mam about having cancer or keep it to myself as long as possible.

Drama of the week: The Greatest Love

"The Greatest Love" describes a love square between four people who couldn't be more different. This drama moves from comical to sad over to sweet and maddening.

(source: mydramalist)

최고의 사랑 - The Greatest Love Gu Ae Jeong is a D-idol always trying to fight for her place in the spotlight, even though she has a bad reputation for years. On the other hand Dok Go Jin, a top star and loved by whole South Korea, hasn't hit his peak yet and it seems like he is on the verge of going to Hollywood. One day Gu Ae Jeong meets Dok Go Jin, who is rude and vain in private and from this day on their paths continue to cross. When Gu Ae Jeong takes part in a popular dating variety show, hosted by her former band mate, her life seems to change finally. 

Again, this drama is filled with experienced actors and actresses. First of all Cha Seung Won (차승원,41) not only lends Dok Go Jin his body and voice, but is also an amazing and professional actor. Known for his acting in "Athena", "Secret" and T-ARA's MV "Cry Cry" he was by far the best option for this role. Cha Seung Won not only makes this drama worth seeing, but you also fall in love with his character and the plot. I loved all scenes with him and played them again and again. Gong Hye Jin (공효진,32) plays Gu Ae Jeong and again, she knows acting. Gong Hye Jin also had the main role in the TV drama "Pasta" as well as in some movies. As I said, her acting is really good, nevertheless I think Lee Yo Won would have been a better cast. Gu Ae Jeong knows her place in society and in the idol world, she is realistic and down to earth.
Next one of my favourite actresses right now: Yu In Na (유인나,29) as Gang Se Ri, the best cast I can think of. Yes, I am biased, but this woman is just so beautiful and talented. I already admired her in "Secret Garden", "My black minidress" and currently in "Queen In Hyeon's Man". Even though her characters are a little bit annoying from time to time I never find herself bothersome and love every little scene with her in.
Yun Gye Sang (윤계상,33) plays the nice and good-looking doctor Yun Pil Ju who takes part in the dating variety show together with Gu Ae Jeong. During the whole drama I felt so sorry for him and wished he would date Gang Se Ri in the end. His acting is good, it is unfair to compare him with Cha Seung Won who beats the pants off Yun Gye Sang,. Lee Hui Jin (이희진,32) plays Gu Ae Jeong's old friend and former band member Jenny. Her acting is good, sometimes I find her character a little bit annoying. 

ATTENTION SPOILER!!--> 10 years ago Gu Ae Jeong, Gang Se Ri, Jenny and Han Mi Na were members of the top girl group "National Treasure Girls", but 18 months after their debut they broke up. Their paths went separate ways. Gang Se Ri works on her career and ends up being popular and loved because of her fake relationship with top actor Dok Go Jin. Han Mi Na left South Korea without contacting the other girls again afterwards, Jenny opened a little restaurant while Gu Ae Jeong tries everything to stay in the spotlight. Her solo album flopped, negative rumors started to swirl around her and destroyed her status in both society and in the idol world. In the present she has to take care of her father, brother and his little son by appearing on radio or TV shows, regardless of whether she makes a monkey of herself or not.
While Gu Ae Jeong struggles Dok Go Jin is loved by everyone, an action star who is sexy yet nice and humble- on the outside. Truth is, Dok Go Jin is the incarnation of an arrogant, egoistic and self absorbed asshole. Gu Ae Jeong and Dok Go Jin meet by accident at a gas station, she stands next to his remarkable big van and is flattered when a fan recognises her. Out of curiosity she peers through the windows to see who's van it is, Dok Go Jin misunderstands her behaviour and writes his autograph on her hand.
Their paths cross again in a TV broadcasting company where Gu Ae Jeong finds herself hiding in his dressing room and overhears an interesting conversation between Dok Go Jin and his manager. Before she can leave unseen she meets Dok Go Jin who writes his autograph on her scarf and she realises he is the arrogant star at the gas station. Later Gu Ae Jeong appears on a variety show and sees her chance by lying and saying she knows Dok Go Jin and telling the crew he would take part in the phone quiz. Surprisingly he picks up the phone and this is the start of their tumultous relationship with more up and downs you can imagine.
Gu Ae Jeong takes part in a famous dating variety show where she encounters Yun Pil Ju again. He ignores the plans of the show writers and gives Gu Ae Jeong a rose so she doesn't have to leave the show after the first episode. The former top star finds herself in a love square- on the one hand Dok Go Jin who's intentions are questionable, on the other hand Yun Pil Ju who cares for her and becomes a good and close friend and on top Gang Se Ri, who starts to like Yun Pil Ju. I felt so sorry for Yun Pil Ju, he is such a warmhearted and nice person who definitely deserves to be loved back. The conditions of the relationship between Dok Go Jin and Gu Ae Jeong reminded me a lot of "Secret Garden". The ending is cute and a bit corny, the OST is awesome and I listen to it every now and then again.
This drama is not only a winner but is also describes the behind-the-scenes life of the entertainment industry; eye opening yet really funny.

Final rating:
★★★★★

Drama of the week - Lie to me

"Lie to me" a korean drama starring my all time favourite actor Gang Ji Hwan as the male actor. Who wonders I had to watch it?

 (Source: mydramalist) 

내게 거짓말을 해봐 - Try lying to me aka Lie to me

Gong A Jeong is quickly nearing her 30s and instead of being happy married she works as a hapless but dedicated civil servant. Some day she meets an old school rival who pokes fun at her because A Jeong is still without a man. Instead of ignoring her she fakes a phone call from her 'husband'. Little did she know that this little rumour turns into a big lie, A Jeong caught in the middle. After her rival's friends spotted her several times around the well known hotel director Hyeon Gi Jun they assume him being the mistery husband.

Gang Ji Hwan (강지환,35), one of the best-known korean actors due to his acting in "Coffee House", "A Movie is a Movie" and "Love is blind", plays the cocky chabeol and hotel director Hyeon Gi Jun. He was the best cast for this role, his acting skills are one of the best and Ji Hwan can pull off arrogant characters like nobody else. Yes, I am biased but when you watch a movie or a drama with him in the leading role you will know why I admire this guy. Every drama/movie starring Gang Ji Hwan is superb, thrilling yet funny. Moving on to the female main role Gong A Jeong played by Yun Eun Hye (윤은혜,27), another famous korean actress known for her roles in "My black minidress" and "The 1st shop of Coffee Prince". Again, a famous and amazing actress with awesome acting skills and enough experience to rock the role perfectly. There is nothing else to say, both Ji Hwan and Eun Hye are awesome actors, they know what they're doing. Seong Jun (성준,21) plays Gi Jun's little creative brother Hyeong Sang Hui. He starred in the drama "Shut up" as well, I haven't watched it yet but his skills in this drama are quite good. Next to Ji Hwan he is still an amateur but I liked to watch scenes with him. Another important character is Gi Jun's exgirlfriend O Yun Ju played by Jo Yun Hui (조윤희,29). They broke up because of Sang Hui who fell in love with her but then left Korea after he found out Gi Jun and Yun Ju planned to get married. She then left for France to study and live there. A Jeong's so called friend Yu So Ran is played by Hong Su Hyeon (홍수현,31). She stole A Jeong's first love and married him a few years later. I love this woman, I really do. She is beautiful, her acting skills are really good and I symphatises a lot with her. Let's talk about the villain Sim Ae Gyeong, Gi Jun's and Sang Hui's aunt, played by Lee Gyeong Jin (이경진,55). In contrast to other dramas her screen time is pretty little which causes the whole drama to be less childish and more grown-up, Gi Jun stands up for his actions and doesn't whine around. The other supporting roles aren't important, most of the history is produces between the main roles plus Sang Hui and Yun Ju.

ATTENTION SPOILER!!--> So what might happen after A Jeong so called friends found out her 'husband' is nobody else than the rich and handsome hotel director Hyeon Gi Jun? Right, they're jealous and curious. Don't ask me why Gi Jun plays along with A Jeong but he invites her "friends" to his home where he and A Jeong pretend to be a happy married couple. Her friends can't believe their eyes and when Gi Jun's aunt Ae Gyeong comes over for a surprise visit you will cry from laughter. Everything gets out of control when his ex-fiancée Yun Ju comes back and with her his old feelings. Even though he broke up with her they meet again and have a late night date. Of course they get spotted by So Ran who immediately accuses him to cheat on A Jeong. She is satisfied to see A Jeong a bit heartbroken, because the young woman starts to have serious feelings for the hotel director yet she knows she probably isn't able to hold a candle to Yun Ju. All the while her new friend Sang Hui stands by her side without her knowing he is Gi Jun's little brother and without him knowing she "dates" his older brother.
The drama starts all over again when Sang Hui falls in love with Gi Jun's woman again, but this time it's not Yun Ju but A Jeong. But instead of running away again and causing his brother a lot of stress he keeps his feelings a secret. Yun Ju tries everything to get Gi Jun back, the character gets really annoying. While So Ra was a jealous rival in the beginning she and A Jeong become friends again. A Jeong finds out that So Ra hasn't the perfect life she is pretending to have and finds out her husband (and A Jeong's former Sunbae and college love) cheats on her.
In the end A Jeong and Gi Jun find to each other without breaking too many hearts and So Ra starts over again with her husband.
The red line is always visible, the ending predictable yet the drama never loses it's suspense. Do I recommend this drama? Yes I definitely do! It combines awesome actors, amazing acting skills and a basic but enthralling and really funny storyline.

Final result: ★★★★★

Drama of the week - Will it snow for Christmas?

After a long time I am back with another korean drama review. Today let's have a closer look at "Will it snow for Christmas?".

(Source: mydramalist)

크리스마스에 눈이 올까요? - Will it snow for Christmas?

Being a member on mydramalist makes life a lot easier when you start to forget which dramas and movies (and animes) you already watched. But on the other hand it can be really frustrating when you are just a little bit like me. You can not only save all the dramas you watched but also make a list which dramas you are eager to watch in the future. Currently I have 777 planned dramas, movies and animes I still want to watch. But before I complain about it let's start with today's drama of interest.

The story sounds pretty boring. Han Ji Wan's boyfriend leaves her for another girl, actually a senior, in school and she decides to get revenge by stealing away the girl's latest conquest, Cha Kang Jin. As always soon ji Wan develops real feelings for him so she wants to abandon her plan, but Kang Jin rejects her. After a while he finally likes her back, but because of a tragic accident Ji Wan's older brother dies and she leaves her family, her life and Kang Jin behind to start anew in Seoul. Five years later Kang Jin, now a successful architect, attends the engagement party of one of his collagues. There he meets Ji Wan but is shocked when he finds out that she is the future bride.

Go Soo (고수,33) has other main roles before he played Cha Kang Jin. His acting is quite good, but not the best in comparison with other male actors his age (I think of Hyeon Bin and Gang Ji Hwan *Ji Hwan, sigh*). Han Ye Seul (한예슬,29) plays Han Ji Wan and goodness, this woman is really pretty. Again I haven't seen her before, but I fell immediately for her. Ye Seul is cute and innocent, her skills are really good and I symphatised with her right away. Sometimes I could slap her hoping she would finally grow some balls but well, women in korean dramas are most of the time pretty lame. Song Jong Ho (송종호,35) has the role of Park Tae Jun which he pulls off quite good. I like his acting, the role was perfect for him and to be honest I liked him more than Cha Kang Jin. Kim Gi Bang (김기방,30) plays Kang Jin's little brother Bu San who is a featherbrained but warmhearted person. Seon U Seon (선우선,37) as Lee U Jeong cut a good figure as well, also when she annoyed me alot. I'm thankful she didn't got a major role. I was surprised the villain is played by a woman, but Kim Do Yeon (김도연,46) was definitely the perfect cast for Seo Yeong Suk. Finally Jo Min Su (조민수,47) has to be noticed, not only because Cha Chun Hui plays a major part in the whole history and plot but also because she pulls the role off perfectly. She was one of my favourite actors in this drama.

My thoughts on the story: Everyone who watches korean dramas knows the characters need a lot of time, a lot of time to develop feelings, a lot of time to realise they love someone and even more time to confess it. But this time it was worse. When they made one step forward now they made two steps back afterwards. It takes forever for scenes to develop, yet the drama isn't boring.

ATTENTION SPOILER!!--> Han Ji Wan and Cha Kang Jin love each other. They fell in love while they were still children and five years later they still love each other. Park Tae Jun only dates Ji Wan because he doesn't feel comfortable with Lee U Jeong being the daughter of the president he is working for. At the day of Ji Wan's and Tae Jun's engagement day U Jeong slits her wrists and Tae Jun rushes to the hospital to be there for her. Even though it seems like he doesn't love her anymore he still cares a lot for her. Everything gets out of control when Ji Wan recognises Kang Jin. Oh, I forgot to say that every female in this drama loves him, so it's not surprise that U Jeong starts to have interest in him as well.
Ji Wan and Tae Jun break up, she starts to date Kang Jin, or well at least they try to date each other but then he is forced to write a resignment letter, I forgot the details.
As a result Kang Jin starts to date U Jeong or wait, did he just date her because she forced him to? So Tae Jun and Ji Wan meet each other again even though Ji Wan loves Kang Jin, nevertheless Tae Jun tries to get her back.
When you think it can't get worse, trust me, it can. Cha Chun Hui had a love relationship with Ji Wan's father back then when they were still teenager. She left the city when he married her friend Seo Yeong Suk. A few years later Chun Hui moved back with her two sons Bu San and Kang Jin, the latter met and fell in love with Ji Wan in school. But now Chun Hui, even though she knows he is a married man, meets him over and over again. I know it takes two to tango, I somehow could understand her feelings but critised his actions.
In every good drama someone has to die so it wasn't surprising when Ji Wan's dad found out he is fatally ill. While he was on a date with Chun Hui he died which causes Yeong Suk to panic and burning the house down. She makes Chun Hui responsible for both the death of her son and Ji Wan's brother and her husband. The stress causes a mental illness so when she wakes up in hospital she believes Kang Jin is her death son.
During the last episodes Kang Jin lives with Yeong Suk under the same roof while pretending to be her son. That means Ji Wan and Kang Jin can't date anymore and sometimes it seems like Kang Jin enjoys being her brother more than being her boyfriend.
In the end Yeong Suk gains her memory back but forces Kang Jin to leave Ji Wan, but the young woman tries everything to fight for him and to get him back. The ending was quite confusing and depressing, Ji Wan invites him for dinner together with her mother, first he refuses but then he goes after her. That's it. No romantic kiss or confession. The whole drama is so confusing, the characters don't stand up for their feelings, it's all haywire. Nevertheless I liked this drama. Final rating:
★★★★☆

Drama of the week - 49 days

Every now and then I love to watch lovey-dovey korean dramas full of stereotyped role allocations starring beautiful women and even more handsome men. Moreover I already recognise some words and sentences also when I study Korean only for a weeks now.
Anyways, let's have a quick look on my current watchlist ~

(Source: mydramalist)

49일 - 49 days


I read so many good reviews about this drama, so I was really excited to finally start watching it. I know, I know, it aired in spring but I always tend to watch them a weeks, or in this case a few months, after the last episode aired.

The story is pretty simple. Shin Ji Hyeon who soon should get married gets into a car accident and ends up in hospital, brain dead. Because she wasn't fated to die the Scheduler offers her a chance to continue her life. In the body of Song I Gyeong she has to find three people who truly love her and collect their tears. However her family members don't count and Ji Hyeon has to fulfil the job within 49 days - otherwise she will die.

Jeong Il U (정일우,24) isn't a newbie nevertheless I never saw his acting before. He is quite handsome, hands down, and a good singer but he isn't my favourite actor in this drama because he still lacks a lot in terms of skills. I don't say his acting is bad, it actually becomes better during the drama but compared to the other actors he still has a long way to go. I'm more happy to see Choe Jeong U (최정우,53) again, he is on my personal top list of korean actors. In my opinion his skills are fantastic no matter whether he plays the villain or a loving father. Unfortunately I never saw him havin the main role.
Nam Gyu Ri (남규리,26) is quite okay, her acting is good but average. She is really beautiful though, but I never really found out whether she does wear circle lenses or not because she has this dolly look. I like her character and symphatised a lot, furthermore her acting isn't as annoying as Seo Ji Hye's (서지혜,27).
With Lee Yo Won (이요원,31) and Jo Hyeon Jae (조현재, 31) this drama has more experienced main actors so I hope they benefit the whole drama.
Lee Yo Won really pissed me off at the beginning, I just wanted to grab her shoulders and shake her. But I had to realise it is just her role she has to play. Her acting skills are flawless, she could switch between the roles so easily.
My thoughts on Jo Hyeon Jae? I fell head over heels for him. His role is by far the best main male role I ever saw, his character actually is the only one who thinks logically and never gives up. And he is so handsome...
Next have a look on Bae Su Bin (배수빈,34). Perhaps I am one of the few people who don't hate him. Yes, his role Gang Min Ho is the baddest bad boy, the most cold-hearted, calculating and manipulating villain ever, BUT during all the time I thought he has to have a soft heart under his really hard shell right? And he has. I love Bae Su Bin's acting a lot and I think I will watch some dramas with him in future.

My thoughts on the story? I actually haven't seen anything like this before, it is unique, the idea is pretty interesting and I am curious how everything will develop. But I guess the ending will be plain ordinary right?

ATTENTION SPOILER!! --> after I watched the drama: Hell, why? Why does Ji Hyeon has to die? I never cried so much, someone wrote this drama has to have the name "1 million litre of tears" and yes, I can only agree. As you can tell by my presumption I thought this drama would be just another heartbreaking drama with a happy end and after I watched the first episode I was pretty sure what will happen in the last episode. But there is no happy ending. Ji Hyeon dies. Not because she can't get 3 tears, she gets them, but because her time ends 6 days after she woke up again. When she told I Gyeong she will die soon I didn't wanted to watch any further. I wanted Ji Hyeon and Gang to be happy together, forever. But this ending won't happen in this drama but only in my imagination.
However the ending doesn't annoy me, instead the drama shows everyone to live their life to the fullest, to be thankful and accomplish what they desire.
This drama is full of grown up characters which change during the drama a lot. Ji Hyeon is at first immature and without worries but then she becomes more mature and you fall in love with her. I Gyeong realises to not take her life for granted.
You find a few nice love stories as well, but they aren't as silly and full of clichés as other romantic stories but mature and somehow also depressing. The characters don't brag about the fact they aren't loved back, instead they understand it and know how to deal with it, like adults.

Furthermore I like how this drama deals with topics like friendship, death and love, "all that glitters is not gold" describes it the best.

Another important aspect: the soundthttp://www.blogger.com/img/blank.gifrack. I love music and for me a good drama needs an even better soundtrack. The soundtrack is pretty good. Jeong Il U has a nice voice, Navi demonstrates again that she is a talented singer and Seo Yeong Eun's Can't let go (of you) is a stunning lovely song. But my favourite is Park Bo Ram's Forever (Always). Yes, the lyrics are heartbreaking, but doesn't it fit the whole drama?

All in all I think when you love korean dramas you will enjoy watching this. But it's not a must-watch (does this word even exist?). However, I probably will devour the other episodes ~

--> Not a must-watch? Dammit, WATCH IT!! GOOOOOOOO!! I guess after the third or fourth episode it was already one of my favourite dramas. The story is great, the characters amazing, the actors fantastic, the whole drama is perfect. I will definitely watch it again during winter!
Final rating:
★★★★★ & Favourit
