Haha, bet you saw this coming? A whole new blog with a refreshing new url address. Yup I just signed up for domain hosting thanks to Valentine’s help, it’s about $64 a year. Not too shabby, 150MB of hosting space with 2GB of bandwidth per mth. So now with such a big hosting space, obviously I will put it into good use. Maybe I will randomly put up some music or video files for you guys to download, so stay tuned ya?

So as you can see, my new site layout is very summer-scented indeed. Well I had finally finished watching this kdrama a few days ago, and just nice I was intending to do up a new skin theme for my blog, so thus explaining the origin of this concept. This kdrama was considered special to me and touched me in several ways, and I’m quite surprised that I could get myself to watch finish the whole series, cause honestly this is the first kdrama that I have ever finished watching, I usually won’t be able to sit through kdramas, just not my taste, I would usually prefer and take jdramas over kdramas anytime, anyday.

But no, this korean drama was different. It struck and moved me in several ways more than one, how fate brought and connected these 2 strangers together and against all odds, how Min-woo (played by Song Seung Hun) and Hye-won (played by Son Ye Jin) end up together. However, we all know true relationships are never smooth-sailing. As both Jung-jae (played by Ryu-jin) and Jung-ah (played by Han Ji Hye) refuse to give up and give in easily, their love becomes strained with the guilt and emotional baggage of their previous relationship.

And when it is eventually revealed that Un-hae’s (Min-woo’s ex-gf) heart is beating in Hye-won, it creates a further rift in their fragile relationship as both are confused whether their inexplicable attraction is due to this common link that they share, Un-hae’s heart. Min-woo is overcome with guilt on his treatment of Hye-won as Un-hae’s replacement. Hye-won is also unsure of her feelings for Min-woo, and as she does not wish to constantly remind Min-woo of Un-hae with her presence, Hye-won decides to break up with Min-woo.

I won’t go on further, if you are interested please go buy the VCDs/DVDs and watch it, currently it’s still airing on Channel U every sat nights, so you can catch when you’re free during on weekends too. I really enjoyed the story and loved the characters in it, especially Hye-won which is played by the beautiful Son Ye Jin. Probably because I didn’t really watch the first 2 series (Autumn in my heart & Winter Sonata) thus I didn’t have much qualms abt it. From what I’ve heard, this third part of the series was actually the weakest in terms of plot, probably because it lost much of its originality since it’s by the same director/producer for the 3 series. However I enjoyed the scenery inside the show and also the sunny feeling that both main leads portrayed in the drama. Min-woo played by Song Seung Hun, somehow I shared some similarities with this character, so I guess that’s why I could appreciate and accept the story character roles in this drama in a more positive way?

Ok guess I’m signing out for today, I’m so deprived of sleep these past two days due to mugging the codes and setting up my new blog/server, turning in early tonight after watching The Champion (Ren Wo Ou You) on Channel 8. Oh btw do feel free to leave some comments abt how u feel abt my new site ok? I also signed up for a new tag-board service as opposed to my old one in my previous blog, so do feel free to leave a taggy too. =))
