Lee Seung Gi for Esquire

I was thrilled to learn that Lee Seung Gi posed for Esquire Korea even though I wasn't sure why, probably because Esquire is a fashion magazine and I expected a lot from it, and from the fact that they went to Hawaii to shoot this one is really something. At the first sight of the finished product, I was excited because he exudes the aura of a matured man through the pictures which I liked, it's as if he has transformed a lot from the last time I saw him. 

It's a bummer that I haven't finished Gu Family Book yet but I have reasons to that: first is that it wasn't that promising, second is because I haven't fully recovered from him in Shining Inheritance so I don't see any character of his surpassing Hwan's. Anyway, I am a fan of his music in general and adding to that, his past variety show has left a really good impression of him so it's already given to support this guy with all of his projects along the way. Though, I am just disappointed of myself because I can't go to his fan meet stops in SEA because I don't have the funds to travel yet and all but hopefully soon, I'm definitely not giving up.

Saving for this one too!


More Awesome Pictures Ahead!

Review: The King 2 Hearts


Release Date: March 21, 2012
Genre: Romance, Dark Comedy, Action

Casts:

Lee Seung Gi - Lee Jae Ha
Ha Ji Won - Kim Hang Ah

Introduction:

One of the national issues of Korea that remains to drop headlines all over the world is about the endless word war of its divided Peninsula: the South and the North. As it has been going on for years, putting a stop over the unresolved matter between the two governments seems to be a difficult assignment for anyone whether it be an individual, an organization or even a government. Both stands on the grounds of their rights rather than to entertain the idea of sitting together for a settlement which seems to be a very complex thing to do. If they could think of its benefits which is to avoid hurting and shedding blood of the innocent citizens of both countries, they could always choose the better deal.

Synopsis:

It's clear that this series wanted both sides to come together but with a purpose of fighting a common enemy of the two who has an agenda of running his power all over the two countries. It is quite a symbolism because they gathered a cast composed of English speaking individuals that would represent other nationalities. Moreover, it wanted to go beyond the friction of the two countries as they involved other issues such as the involvement of the different nations to their dispute. Anyhow, as brave as this series can be, there are still lapses which they failed to attend to. Despite of the efforts exerted by this drama, it was clearly disturbed by too much idealism.

[FanGoods] TVXQ + Lee Seung Gi + Tablo + Reply Me 1997 + AKB48

Preview: TVXQ Goods

I got these fangoods as CassPh freebies during TONE album launch and 9G (9th Gathering)! Those are two of the three events I attended out of so many gatherings they have made in the past. With all these Kpop events in my country including CassPh's, 95% of the time I am MIA maybe because I have no one to be with as my company or maybe I was just busy that day. One thing I am sure of though is that when TVXQ or JYJ comes, I should be there! Like in the front row seats. That's all. Haha.

Review: My Girlfriend is a Gumiho


Genre: Comedy, Fantasy, Romance
Release Date: August 11, 2010

Casts:

Lee Seung Gi - Cha Dong Woong
Shin Min Ah - Gumiho / Gil Dal

Review:

I watched this drama out of love for Lee Seung Gi but honestly speaking, at first I wasn't expecting anything great because I'm not the biggest fan of rom-com dramas and aside from that, I thought Shin Min Ah was not the perfect match for him as far as onscreen chemistry is concerned. Basing from the trailers that I saw, I was a bit hesitant about their team up. Anyway, I did watch it and contrary to my beliefs, I enjoyed it. The fact that it wasn't boring was not only because it's comedy but also they added a fantasy factor on it which is new to me I guess but then again, there are still pitfalls overall because this is a fantasy series.
