What is it about Korean Drama?

I am hooked. Yep, I am totally hooked on this Korean Drama that 8TV has been playing for the past month. The Korean Drama is "Princess Hours". I am not much of a Korean Drama lover, I am actually more of Japanese Dorama person. I still remember back in PPP we would exhange vcds on the Japanese Dorama that we have, we even continue doing it until now basically. But nowadays, dah macam kureng sket drama Jepun. Name any of it, it's either we have the CDs or we have seen it or whatever, heck I even have the OST tape of all the famous Japanese Dorama songs.

So, when the Korean Dorama revolution took over, I wasn't quite into it. It started with the Winter Sonata, memang bestlah cerita tuh, no doubt about it, BUT it is just tooo sad. Sedih bangat, even the song and the lyrics pun dah heart wrenching. Plus, panjangggg sangatlah cerita Korea nie, why can't it be like Japanse series, 10 episodes then it settled. Simple and nice. After Winter Sonata, it was the Autumn in My Heart, Summer Scent (wonder if the Spring series has come out or not? hmm...) So, as I can't stand those heart wrenching Korean Drama I try my best not to see any of it. Tengok sket jek, tak nak totally follow like religiosly watch it everyday. Tengok untuk just to see what the story is about.

Alas, I don't know how I got hooked with this Princess Hours pulak. It was an innocent mistake, few weeks back, while I was channel surfing 'ter'click 8TV and 'ter'tengok Princess Hours. I think it was the 2nd or 3rd episod and I was laughing all way through the drama. That was what caught me 'kelakarlah pulak cerita Korea nie'. That episod showed this happy-go-lucky young girl who had to marry a young arrogant prince due to an agreement made by the girl's grandfather and the prince's grandfather. It was topsy-turvy as both are totally different and it was just hillarious. And that was it. Later, a week after that, AGAIN, I stumbled upon that Princess Hours again. This time, the girl had married the prince, and their life of haphazardness starts.

This week is the finale of the Korean Drama, at lasttt my life would be normal again (I hope). Susah tau terhooked on this TV series, you would be glued to your TV EVERY SINGLE DAY for the rest of the episodes just to see what will happen. So, for those of you yang nak tahu what is it all about, tengoklah starting today till Friday, but I warn you dia dah start sedih giler. I think it is a trademark of Korean Drama, tak sah tanpa heart wrenching plots like crita hindustan tak sah tanpa those guling2 kat taman scene. As my Korean friend once said, "Korean guys are sensitive people, we are not afraid to cry to show our emotion". Now, I know, so if you want to catch the last few episodes of the Princess Hours make sure you bring you tissue ladies. Don't say that I didn't warn you.
