Their new MV Tonight, let's just say that I wanna get high and banged. Hehehehehe..



Catchy and party tune friendly, no?

Korean Movie: 3-Iron

Warning: Content not suitable for minors!

Movies that are slightly weird and one of a kind always fascinate me. Even if the movie itself kinda makes me rack my brain up in order for me to fully grasp its meaning or it delves on confusing metaphors, I'd still watch it. Weird movie stimulates my brain and at the same time gives me something to chew on, long after the movie ends. These days, I seldom buying myself DVDs. Instead, I trawl the net or any other movie streaming sites that I could readily find in the net.

As such, I found one of the 'just my taste' movie. No other than one of the South Korean's finest Director, Kim Ki-duk's. This 2004 award winning movie, Binjip (Empty House, alternate title 3-Iron) had won several prizes and special director's award during the 2004 Venice Film Festival. I was blown away! Why? Simply because the male protagonist literally didn't utter a single word of dialogues throughout the entire movie but his facial expressions and body languages were enough to make this movie an intriguing watch! I am not going to write a review of this film. For review and synopsis, you may read them here.

So, enjoy the movie.. oh yeah, the OST was ahh-mazing too. It featured Belgian-Arab singer,  Natacha Atlas' Gafsa.

So, how was it? For me, it's fantastic!

Ye..I do watch korean dramas :-)

...but i don't watch all genres. i mostly watch the comedies, throw in together some actions and peppered by romance and i'd be happy as a lark : -) trust me, when you became an old maid like me..sitting at home watching tv soaps is equal to having a boyfriend (lol, at least for me la) hahahaha, sounds pathetic, right? oh well.. my all time fave korean actresses are:

Kim Sun-ah:

Yoon Eun-hye

..now, i don't get tired watching their dramas over and over again. Kim Sun-ah was funny, gutsy and chubby in the 2005 runway hit My Name Is Kim Sam Soon, while Yoon Eun-hye starred convincingly as a girl, pretending as a guy in the highly successful Coffee Prince (2007). Both are award winning actresses, humble, A-lister in the Korean entertainment industry!

Kim Sun-ah's 2009 political drama, The City Hall was another huge success. yes, i've watched this drama and i loved it. i like the way how this drama poked fun at the Korean political scenes, it's funny. yet, ironically, i think it happens in the real political world too. contrary to her humble looks in her dramas, she's actually a stunning woman! on top of that, she's also a gifted pianist!

Yoon Eun-hye's comeback to the small screen was a success too. her 2009 drama, Take Care of Agasshi a.k.a My Fair Lady was quite a success. she starred as a haughty and bratty heiress who fell in love with her personal butler! The show's rating in Korea might be on the borderline of 19% but elsewhere in the world, it was a huge hit. well, she's after all Yoon Eun-hye, korean's CF (Commercial Features) Queen, a successful model and one of the top paid celebrities in korea, commanding between USD600.000 - 700.000 per commercial! her last year's earning alone was USD5mil. Now, how crazy is that? and yes, she does charity works too.

my all time favorite K-dramas:

My Lovely Sam-soon a.k.a My Name Is Kim Sam-soon

The City Hall

Coffee Prince a.k.a The First Shop of Coffee Prince

 The Time Between Dog and Wolf

 btw, i might be as lonely as the next door spinster but i don't watch idol dramas. i can't stand watching pretty boy actors who are even prettier than the female actresses (cue - Boys Over Flower) it makes my skin crawls! I want a BADANG-man, not flowerboys! well, not as strong as the legendary Badang, but a real man nonetheless ^o^
