The Sweet Potato Couple

They are too cute for words. I find both Yonghwa of CNBlue and Seohyun of SNSD so adorable. They are the latest pairing from MBC’s We Got Married, a variety show in Korea.

People dubbed them as “sweet potato couple” because of Seohyun’s love for the vegetable/fruit. Before they had their first meeting, Seohyun asked Tiffany and Taeyon on how to go about it. They gave her some advice on how to handle things. Then the two suggested to her that if she likes him, she needs to say Sweet Potato if she don’t she can say Hamburger. It was some sort of a code between the SNSD girls.

Yonghwa on the other hand, played a prank on Seohyun on their first meeting. He made his bandmate from CNBlue to pose as the hubby of Seohyun as they wait in the lobby of MBC. Then when she arrived he asked her to choose from the four of them who she likes to be the hubby. Maybe it was preference or fate that she chose Yonghwa.

You got to see it for yourself. Watch the following videos with english subtitles:

Autumn’s Concerto Episode 14 & 15

If you have been waiting for Guang Xi to regain his memory, Episodes 14 and 15 of Autumn’s Concerto also known as Next, Stop Happiness will be the episodes to watch out for. This is where Guang Xi plans his revenge on Mu Cheng since she broke his heart on the very day of his surgery. He keeps on believing that there is a relationship between her Tuo Ye while Mu Cheng kept telling him that there is nothing going on between them.

I’ve said it time and again that Van Ness Wu is really so charming as Guang Xi and he really was able to portray the character to a T. Jerry Yan and Vic Zhou might have overshadowed him during the Meteor Garden days but not anymore especially on acting skills. It was very evident during those scenes when he pretended to be so mean and cold to Mu Cheng but you can definitely see in his eyes his real feelings. No wonder that the ratings are great.

Anyway, here are the video links with English subtitles for Episode 14 and 15 of Autum’s Concerto:

God of Study Episode 1 - 4

This is one drama series that I intentionally skipped only because I thought I was too old for the story and that I might not be able to enjoy watching it. I always thought that it would be about cute teenagers embroiled in school trouble. I was quite mistaken. Yes, they are students having trouble in school but it was more than that.

Maybe because I find Yoo Seung Ho too young and too cute for me to really enjoy it and I probably felt that I won’t be able to relate to it anymore but the story and the way it was directed and acted would touch everyone’s heart. I smiled, cried and laugh with all the characters. It was a beautiful series that hopefully more teenagers were able to watch it and learned something from it. The ratings were so good that I was impressed. It was also very inspiring!

Anyway, I did a marathon when I decided to watch it. I spent 3 days watching it, breaking the whole series into 3. My weekend was full of the 5 students and Kim Soo Ro. I highly recommend this series. Heartwarming, inspiring, funny and a splash of teen love.
