Loved Man On Heels. You nailed it perfectly with your review. I saw Blood Rain and remember little about it. I may have to look into Ghost...because of the cast. Love KHN. First saw him in Monstar and was hooked. I believed then he would be 'something' and Misaeng & Angel Eyes only verified it for me. And I love KSE to death. Cuter than a bug's ear! The little devil. She could just torture SJR for the next few years and I'd stay happy watching.
Man on High Heels is a great movie. It's pitch black in a glamorous yet decadent thick, surrounding ambiance. Wonderful cinematography and fight choreography as well. The struggle between himself and herself [hermself] is omnipresent, but some really humorous moments ease the tension. Loved both Lee Som and Lee El's interpretations and Seung Won was utterly expressive in this twofold role.
You never get bored of Asian ghost stories no matter how cliche they might seem at times because you are my Twin and i feel the same way about such stories. But this one had a different air, i loved the platonic ghastly romance, it was almost alive! And of course i really enjoyed the fright aspect! I'm looking forward to Kang Ha Neul's movie Twenty! It's going to be so goddamn funny! First time i came across him was in Angel Eyes as the younger self of the main male lead. As for Kim So Eun, i love her to infinity and back, she's one of the sweetest young ladies currently walking on this earth, along with Jo Bo Ah.
As for Blood Rain, haven't watched it, i'm odd when it comes to Sageuk. Either i watch something or i don't, it's 50/50, it depends on the signals my brain will send at that moment. But in general i always prefer battleground historical movies, like The Admiral, it almost turned my room into a turtle battleship with cannons at the windows!
what captured me is that scene that gave me "butterflies " too.. her fear yet curiosity to discover relationship or skinsip and his tender look and gentle touch, a real man-women contact but not love.
I like your descriptif and i quote: It's not THEIR story; it's ours. This describe it all.
Great article my evil Twin! I've watched the first 2 eps from this one and i intend to resume during the second half of February, loved what i've seen so far and we have to be thankful to tvN for this quirky reality bliss it offers lately! :D
Well, i didn't like it immediatly from the 1st episode, but it got better and better with the next episodes, and to think about it now, it's probably the cutest and sweetest drama i've ever seen! really unique..
