Lee Seung Gi: Losing My Mind



I'm currently going "ga-ga" over this guy and I'm practically on Korean mode right now. He is considered to be the "uhm-chin-ah" in Korea (The type of man you would bring to your house as a future son-in-law to your mother) He has a nice singing voice. A versatile actor and an entertainer. Gosh! I mean, this guy is one total package deal. Too talented for his own good I tell you. Not to mention, a gentleman too. I've read a lot of articles about him and his co-stars would definitely say that he's such a gentleman.

He is definitely the man: Lee Seung Gi

Lee Seung Gi was born on January 13, 1987. He first debuted as a singer on June 5 , 2004  at age 17. He's a balladeer. When he debuted his first single, Because You're My Girl, it became so popular that he won "Best Newcomer" award  in various music awards. In 2007, He won  "Best Male Solo Artist". And the rest you can say we call is history. He garnered a lot of awards here and there and still he remained humble and low profile.

His first debut as an actor in KBS weekend drama "The Infamous Chil sisters" (2006). He played the main lead role character in "Shining Inheritance" (Brilliant Legacy) in 2009. The drama maintained it's top spot for weeks. The success of the drama boost Lee Seungi Gi's popularity both locally and internationally.

I have watched almost all of his dramas and I still can't get enough of him. I watched as his acting changes from his humorous Cha Dae woong of My Girlfriend is a Gumiho.

 

The serious King Jae ha of  The Kings 2 Hearts.


To his action kicking half man - half divine creature (gumiho) character Choi Kang Chi in Gu Family Book.


I haven't watched Brilliant Legacy, his first lead yet. In my defense it's because it's too long. xP I should have some patience over that drama. Ohohohoh.  Let's not forget that since his a singer first, I happen to love his songs especially "Losing my Mind" (I think I'm about to. Ahahah) the OST for My Girlfriend is a Gumiho. I kept playing and playing it almost everyday and never get tired of it. Whew!

By this year, to all Lee Seung Gi fans out there. You should literally jump for joy, no need to raise your eyebrows at me because I already did that. I jumped up and down to the excitement of his upcoming drama "You're all Surrounded". He will play the rookie detective Eun Dae- Gu, a brusque, with the an IQ of 150 cop that has a photographic memory. He has a painful memory during his childhood and he has a problem with authority. Like what you read about his character? We shall find out more. Later. This is another "must-watch" K-drama on my list Ohohoho. Premier will be on the 7th of May 2014.

You can't blame me if I lose my mind (figuratively) over the likes him, can you? A singer, an actor, an entertainer, scandal free, down to earth and a true blue gentleman. Who wouldn't like him? Now, I'm losing it. :P




Dang it! Can he be any cuter? >///<

My Girlfriend is a Gumiho

It's all about live, laugh, and love, my life is full of those at the moment and for these past few days, I've been quite busy fulfilling those needs. ( Need-ish I mean, ;) ) Since, I'm in the mood for more or less Korean dramas and movies as of the moment, I did not waste any opportunity and time to grab my portable DVD and to watch one of my favorite dramas of all time.  

It's been four years since it was aired on television and no matter how many times I've seen it. It never fails to humor me and to make me feel tickled pink all over. I love this drama so much that I wanted to buy another DVD in case, mine might not work anymore. Thinking about when that time comes makes me feel sad all of a sudden  : (  *wipes tear. Yep, it's decided. I am going to buy ANOTHER one. ^_^  haha.

Enough, dilly dally and let's go straight to the point. The Korean drama that I've been talking about that always --always--- puts a goofy smile on my face is none other than "My Girlfriend is a Gumiho". You heard that right. Who would forget the chemistry between these two? the hilarious and honest Dae woong? The cute and innocent Mi Ho? Whoever created their characters deserves a round of applause. (Way to go Hong sisters!) Just so you know The Hong sisters are a screen writing team composed of two sisters, hence, the name. Together they write popular romantic comedies (my forte) for the small screen such as My Sassy Girl Choon-Hyang, My Girl, Couple Trouble, You're Beautiful, The Master's Sun and this post's title. They have other works too I just mentioned the ones that I've already seen sooo.... Teheh!  >_^

Among all their works, this one, like I've said, is one of my favorite. 



Synopsis:

Chae Dae-Woong (Lee Seung-gi) a normal college student with an ambition of becoming an action star ran away from his grandfather. On his way of escaping, he met a monk who gave him a ride and let him stay at the temple. What turns out to be just a form of his escape from trouble leads to him to another when he accidentally releases a gumiho (Shin Min Ah) a legendary nine tailed fox that took form of beautiful woman,  who was trapped in the temple's painting for 500 years. Chae Dae-Woong realises what he has done ran away and fell on the river bank. Severely injured, the now released Gumiho came to save him by giving him her precious fox bead that can heal him.By doing so, Gunmiho has to stay close to Chae Dae-Woong cause without her bead her aura is weakened. The story then progress of how Chae Dae-Woong handles Gumiho, his ambition and his love for his noona. As for the innocent and pretty Gumiho, she will then know and experience to live like a human, laugh like human and perhaps love like a human?
