Hardcore Korean-Wave Fan!

in #kr7 years ago

It is no denying that K-pop and K-dramas are taking over our big screen these days. Many young people are becoming a fan of these dramas and musics. I, myself is also among those that become a fan. So for these few days, I would like to talk about a few of my all-time-favorite korean dramas.

  1. Guardian: The Lonely and Great God (쓸쓸하고 찬란하神 – 도깨비; Sseulsseulhago Chanlanhasin - Dokkaebi). Literal translation : Goblin.

Synopsis:

  • Kim Shin (Gong Yoo) is a goblin and protector of souls. He is the landlord of the grim reaper (Lee Dong-wook) who is in charge of taking deceased souls. Shin doesn't want immortality anymore but needs a human goblin's bride in order to end his long life. Meanwhile, Ji Eun-tak (Kim Go-eun) is a high school student who despite her painful reality, remains optimistic. She summons the goblin by chance and through various encounters, ends up falling in love with him. Sunny (Yoo In-na) is an owner of a chicken wing shop, a woman who is loved by all men. These four people's lives change when they encounter and their lives become entangled.-

Cast:

  • Gong Yoo (공유) acted in the ever famous korean zombie apocalypse movie, Train To Busan.

  • Kim Go Eun (김고은) acted in the drama Cheese In The Trap alongside Park Hae Jin. Goblin was the second drama she's ever acted in.

  • Lee Dong Wook (이동욱) acted the dramas, Hotel King and Blade Man, before acting as the cold but funny grim reaper in Goblin.

  • Yoo In Na (유인나) acted in the 2013 drama, My Love from the Star, alongside the famous Jun Ji Hyun and Kim Soo Hyun.

  • Yook Sung Jae (육성재) is the youngest member of boy-group BTOB that debuted in 2012, under Cube Entertainment. Before acting in Goblin, he debuted as an actor with the famous 'School' series, "Who Are You: School 2015".

Korean dramas also have a habit of punching my emotions in the face with their Original Soundtrack. Even though I do not understand what the lyrics are saying, I can feel the emotions that they give out through those small clips of scenes that was going on while the soundtrack was playing in the background.

Goblin's Original Soundtrack included a lot of famous idol singers from famous idol groups such as EXO, SISTAR and solo artist Ailee.

Original Soundtrack:

  1. "Stay With Me" - Chanyeol (EXO), Punch
  2. "My Eyes (내 눈에만 보여)" - 10cm
  3. "Hush" - Lasse Lindh
  4. "Beautiful" - Crush
  5. "You Are So Beautiful (이쁘다니까)" - Eddy Kim
  6. "Who Are You" - Sam Kim
  7. "I Miss You" - Soyou (SISTAR)
  8. "First Snow (첫 눈)" - Jung Jun Il
  9. I Will Go To Like The First Snow (첫눈처럼 너에게 가겠다) - Ailee
  10. "Wish (소원)" - Urban Zakapa
  11. "Heaven" - Roy Kim
  12. "Love" - Mamamoo

This drama is really worth watching and the story line can really bring your emotions on a roller coaster ride. And the Original Soundtracks are really worth listening to as well. This drama is also my No. 1 favorite so far.
