I've given up on Kdramas a long time ago, i hate kdramas because the stories are stereotypes like if you start the drama it will be okay, but once it reaches the climax part, is the part that hate the most. I've tried several dramas before like Coffee Prince but i never finished it i give up easily, I'm very picky with the things I watch if It bores me and if I dont know whos playing i dont watch anymore.

But this year i tried watching BOF just to see how they made it, HYD was my favorite manga afterall, but there are some parts there are over drama anyways, I came across this drama You're Beautiful I read an article about it and watched the trailer because its so intresting

Tae Kyung and On Yu are in search of a new member for their idol group, A.N.JELL. However, Mi Nam suffers an injury at the last moment. So Mi Nyu, his twin sister, is asked to step in for her brother. The rest of the drama follows the behind-the-scenes life of an idol group:



I waited for the first episode and watched it and I was hooked! I suggest you guys should watch it, if you dont like watching kdramas then this is very different from your average kdrama, and the storyline might be familiar with all the hana kimi crazee yes, but with this i think its hana kimi meets Nodame Cantabile, the main characters are soo much like Nodame and Chiaki. The drama is very entertaining, very funny, also a love story. It will never bore you I garantee you that, You'll love each and every character in this drama, so I suggest if you have nothing to watch now bored, just search and watch it online.

I was really waiting for IRIS, TOP's drama because he looked so hot, that was the drama I was suppose to watch for this season, and YB just came in second, but I end up leaving IRIS for YB.

besides, the characters, the storyline, also one thing that could get you hook is their songs, I know this because I was drawn to the song "Promise" from the trailer.

if you wanna watch they have them on viikii, my soju or for direct downloads:

And i have to say for me You're Beautiful is the best Kdrama ive ever watch, if ever they decided to make a 2nd season im more than willing to watch it.

I'm a bit sad now because the last episode aired last thursday and now my weds and thurs will be dull T_T

i kept watching these parts, the first clip dont mind kei and massu listen to the audio, he kept singing it during rehearsals i think he uses tambourine as his sound check before he plays ordinary or code

This is the first time in our history that this has happened, although our country is known for having floods during a typhoon but not like this. This typhoon dumped 455 milliliters of rainfall in 24 hours which is twice of Katrina's rainfall, all that rainfall in just one day is equivalent to 1 month of rainfall.

Its devastating, even though my province got hit specifically by the rain, we're pretty much okay here because our place is high but some parts of our province are still drenched in waters, moreover the people in Metro Manila. It breaks my heart seeing pictures and videos online and on TV T_T

if you wanna check how it is you can see it here:

Help our fellow fans. Thank you.

Ive only watched 3 dramas this season, Buzzer Beat, Orthros no Inu and Koishite Akuma. My votes for this season:

Best Drama: Orthros no Inu
My vote goes to ONI, for the originality and pacing of the story, It was really good I think there wasn't a point where I skipped parts, I just watched all of it. This drama reminded me soo much of Bloody Monday the suspense and mystery makes you wanna go watch more.

Buzzer Beat was good but once you watch it you just wanna watch the parts you like on the 2nd watch, like me I only watch PiKo parts, I intend to skip the basketball and Riko and Kawasaki-san parts.

with Koishite Akuma, When you watch the first episode you pretty much know whats gonna happen, it was kinda predictable, It was mixed of love stories all in one drama.

Who I think will win: Buzzer Beat, considering the ratings, BB was higher than ONI

Best Actor: Yamashita Tomohisa / Buzzer Beat & Takizawa Hideaki / Orthros no Inu
I dont know who to choose so I choose both, I have to say Yamapi was great in Buzzer Beat specifically all his crying scenes were really good, also the sweetness him and keiko really made us believe that were in love (actually i think they are so LOL) considering this is Yamapi's first real love story, so two thumbs up. What I didnt like with Pi, he's stiff acting pretty much seen from all his dramas exp for Nobuta.

With Takki, its been 4-5 years since he made a full length drama, but he's great acting is still there, This drama was very different from all the Takki dramas I've watched, What I admire about him he's facial expressions are pretty much neutral, its not predictable you pretty much dont know whats going through mind of the character, you dont whether you should trust Ryuzaki or not, makes it more mysterious.

with Yuma, He's a great actor, specially he's crying scenes he was soo good in such a very young age, I would vote for him but Yamapi and Takki are higher for me.

Who I think will win: Yamashita Tomohisa

Best Actress: Kitgawa Keiko
This is Keiko's best acting ever, Ive seen Keikos other dramas before but her acting improved alot from the last time I saw her, Again made us believe they were really in love.

Who I think will win: Kitagawa Keiko

Best Supporting Actor: Nishikido Ryo
Who says Ryo can only stick to bad guy character? I think Last Friends said alot of Ryo's acting, but Ryo's portray of Aoi Ryosuke was really good, Tho im kinda sad he didnt have much crying scenes which he was really good at, but for him to play an Angelic person who kills people, and suffering that pain was really good.

Who I think will win: Nishikido Ryo

Best Supporting Actress: -

Best Theme song: Ichibutozenbu by B'z
I had mixed feelings for this I also like Hikari Hitosu, but I have to say Ichibutozenbu was the song was perfect especially with the opening, it goes with the drama very well, who would know this song will go well with Yamapi also?

I think will win it: Ichibutozenbu by B'z

I'm ready for the next season XDD
