Korean TV

Yes, I spend many nights after work vegging out with the TV on usually watching some Korean Drama. There are actaully two now probably two that I am into one is called Couple in Trouble that is on Saturday and Sunday nights. It is actually kind of funny and from what I know from the plot it is interesting. A rich young married woman is out on the yaht with her rich husband and falls off and hits her head. A poor local handy man or something picks her up and she has amnesia. He convinces her that they are married or something and she starts to take care of his three children. During this time though her memory is starting to come back and her rich husband is looking for her. He finds her but is speechless because she doesn't recognize him and he is spellbound. But she is also falling for the poorer guy, but it is typical of most Korean couples in this drama. Just when you think they are going to be close or happy they end up arguing and the whole things starts up again. It is entertaining!

But this is an exception I think because most of the dramas are love stories of course but they are very depressing. One is called Snow Queen that started on Monday night on one of the channels. Anyway, there is a guy who was a genius and he was in the university and had a best friend. They were very close and they were both competing for this prize maybe some test and the one guy won. Well, the friend was very depressed after this and committed suicide (or got hit by a truck) and I think maybe he was in love with this one girl. (I don't know a lot here, I am just going off of what I have found out or maybe I am making stuff up.) Well then the guy stops going to school and stuff and becomes a boxer and the girl has a lot of problems. The end of Tueday's episode was her about to walk off a cliff where the one guy is barried and just in nick of time the one guy catches her from behind. This was how the episode ended.

And as far as Korean comedies are concerned they just look wacky and I certainly have no idea what they are saying. (They probably wouldn't even be funny to me.)

Korean dramas and movies though I guess are very hot throughout Asia right now, so I am where the top entertainment is coming from in the East I suppose!
