This film is a cute, dorky, yet a Gong-Yoo's adorableness factors. Sorry to give out the negative points here. The main points that I disliked was figuring out who was Mr. Destiny and at times, I thought Gong Yoo was the destiny guy. At other times, I thought it was someone different. I did not enjoy the slow beginning and the lack of details in the flashbacks in India. I think the film lacked a lot of left out details, both of their jobs seemed confusing, and was Gong Yoo playing two characters or one? I'm still confused on this one.

Hello! Nice to meet you! I love it when MDL users are doing challenges. Keep me motivated with mines :)

I'm surprised The Journals of Musan's rating is not applicable?

I know what you mean with work related stuff. I have the week off. Hence, my drama/film watching is more of a priority for right now.

I never really understand 50 shades of grey. Is there a movie on it? I heard the story got stolen from a fan fiction author. Then, the author who stole it re-wrote some parts and got it published. Fast forward months later, then it becomes a best-seller in the US. Is it any good?

I've been reading Costa Rica guidebooks since I'm leaving to Costa Rica in early January 2014. Yep. Planning ahead. lol.

lol Thanks for the song mention :) I'm glad I'm back. I just finishing Finding Mr. Destiny which is a 'okay' film. Nothing quite special about it. I also finished Turn Left Turn Right and this film is carefully made w/o being a melodrama. I really loved this. It reminded me of Love 911. The ending wasn't as sadistic or dramatic as others. This ending ended off on a perfect note. I like this quirky yet conceptual film. Try it if you haven't seen it.

Yes. My wacky humor. A little odd and unexpected :P
I hope you're enjoying The Greatest Love. My mom enjoyed it last year and I enjoyed it then. Now, I rethink the rating that I gave it. It's becoming a more typical film these days with actors and actresses scenarios. The last few episodes like you said is hard to intake. It does drag a lot and I hope you can complete it. I'm gonna add those movies that you've mentioned to my PTW list.

I used to watch currently airing dramas. Since I'm an impatient person, it killed me to wait 1-2 episodes to be released each week w/ subs. It was death. So, I decided to do challenges instead to find films/dramas that may interest me and force to watch them in order to be more well-rounded drama/film watch. Thanks. I put too much effort into my profile. Sometimes, I consider changing into something more unique. For now, I'll leave it. Are you watching any movies?

TBH, I added you as a friend because of your awesome, well-written review. It gave me some insight before viewing any drama/film. I see that you've seen First Time. How did you enjoy that movie?

Nice to meet you too :) Why is MARS one of your top favourite dramas? I'm currently watching that drama now. What's your favourite type of genre/genres?

Yes, quite so. Nice. So, you started a 10 weeks drama challenge? What is your requirements or rules for your challenge?

Hi :) Nice to meet you too. Vibrant profile, you have there. Why did you put Secret Garden on hold? How did you think of Nail Shop Paris? I've been meaning to watch it....

Oh wow! I haven't played the piano since high school. It's been a while. I do miss it, however we're doing renovations so the piano is hidden under a thick sheet where it avoid the dust/rubble from entering it. The piano battle scene was really cool esp. it was a tie. I thought one person or the other was going to lose. I thought wrong.

Yes, Tada, Kimi Wo Aishiteru is a melodrama with hints of university romance. Definitely recommend.

Recently, I just watched Turn Left Turn Right. It's not a melodrama but more so a romance and a drama. Warning: It's a slow and somewhat boring in the beginning. If you like two people who lives their lives parallel to each other, then you like the movie. All in all, I gave it a 8.

Neat. I'm gonna look that novel up. I haven't heard anything about it. What else have you been watching?

Yes, definitely Secret moved me :)
I'm still watching MARS. I thought I would have more time on my holidays but now, I am whined up with tons of things to do. I am finishing my second movie today since I already missed a day of drama/film watching.
I recently watched Turn Left Turn Right. I find it as a remarkable film and my first Hong Kong film. There wasn't really any romance in the film but the storyline kept me going. Soon than I knew it, I watched the movie in a short period of time <---in my opinion. It was slow at first but it soon became interesting near the middle and to the end.

Thanks for notifying about Nail Shop Paris. I still do have an interest in it since it's a gender-bender drama. What other dramas are you currently watching?

Lol everyone asks that. Nope. It's Tommy Heavenly 6/February or Tomoko Kawase. One of my favourite old punk rock singers.

Nice movie challenge!

This movie did not float my boat at all. Quite typical setting and plot when compared to Western movies.

I enjoyed your review hence I added you. Nice to meet you btw.

Hey. Nice to meet you. I read some of your forum posts. Interesting enough. Where's Lalala land exactly? I agree with your line, "Mystery is what makes us who we are". I'm just brutally honest person so my profile is like extra unnecessary info for me to state. What type of movies/dramas are you watching?

I might give variety shows a try but I am reluctant to start one. Maybe one day, I'll have the courage to commence one.

For Secret, I'm one of those music-fanatic fans where I grew up on music and my love for music is quite more noticeable when compared to my brother. I enjoyed this film to the point where I was humming the piano pieces. It has motivated me to start piano(if I have the time). I gave it a 9.

I'm watching this Japanese film, Tada, Kimi Wo Aishiteru with one of the actors in the 'Hana Kimi' drama. I'm halfway through since I had stop it due to time constraint of going to work.

Had the inspector at work today. It was a so-so day. Hope yours is better.

Oh. Thanks for letting me know :) I'll finish it sometimes this year.

So far, I watched Secret and I loved this film. The music is what I enjoyed the most. I'm fascinated by the piano pieces and it motivated me to start piano again. I truly miss it! Currently, I am watching Tada, Kimi Wo Aishiteru. I am half way through this film. Also,I finished 2 episodes of Mars and now, I am on episode 8.

I'll update my monthly movie challenge to 9/16 films sometime tonight. So far so good. Now, it's down to the final countdown for the entire week. How's drama/movie watching going?

No, I didn't drop Last Cinderella. I just put it on hold until all the episodes were released. For now, I'll finish Mars. Okay. Sounds good. Let me know.

LOL I don't specifically hate planning. It generally goes with my mood. Normally, I love planning. It's all complicated. I completely understand. I do that too at times :) Anyways, I see that Last Cinderella is almost done on your list. I just started it a month or two ago. How is it since the beginning episodes?
