Hindi Song in "I Need Romance"

It's from Bend It Like Beckham.



It's a good movie, IMO.

New Song Discovery: Safe by Britt Nicole

While watching Drop Dead Diva, I heard this song and was intrigued. And the funny thing is there are other comments on youtube saying the same thing :D

In Young ah...

How are you going to kiss Sung Hyun with tongue...

Then slap him on the head like a little kid? Damn, woman wake up!

I Need Romance Kissing NGs

I promise that this isn't the only reason I like this drama :D

I Need Romance Is Shaping up nicely

I guess I will write recaps on Couch Kimchi. I will also stop if it starts to suck but it looks promising so far. Enjoyed the last two episodes. I just hope these two end up together.

He'd better not be her Aidan and she ends up with her cheating boyfriend. Just say NO, folks!

Sure Thing

My new song obsession is Sure Thing by Miguel. I heard it on the radio and just had to find it. Only to find out that it was released like four (or two) years ago. LOL. I guess I really am out of the loop. But in my defense it was only released on a mixtape back then. It was officially released in January of this year. Yes, I'm still late but it could be worse.


This song sounds very familiar for some reason and makes me think of Prince and Terrence Trent D'Arby. The line I'm obsessed with is:

I will be your fuse... BOOM!


lol. I think it's the BOOM that I love. Hahaha

So Last Summer...

... it was all about my Coffee House obsession and this summer, it's City Hunter. Anyone else notice a trend here? I wonder what next summer's will be.

Although I don't think anything can ever match my CH1 obsession and I really don't want to relive that again. LOL.

Now that Nana has redeemed herself, I suppose all the ranting will end? Or not. I suspect that at least one Nana-hater will not be pleased :D

 

But go ahead, Nana. Get that ho girl away from your man! :D 

I must say that based on Couch Kimchi stats (searches and hits), City Hunter is on FIRE! Some were saying that Lie To Me was an online sensation but just based on what I've recently seen via CK, City Hunter has surpassed it.

My City Hunter Episode 9 Thoughts...

... have been posted on Couch Kimchi.

I Need Romance - Korean Cable Drama

I just saw the first two episodes of this show and think it's cute. Three friends and their stories of love. So it's totally Sex and the City and I think we have Carrie, Samantha and Charlotte here (no love for Miranda).

The Charlotte character was engaged to a guy who wanted to wait till their wedding night to have sex. As in, she put the moves on him and he rejected her. Gay? Probably. Impotent? Possibly but I think gay is likelier. He left her standing at the altar so she hires a guy to play him at their wedding to save face.

The main couple's romance began in a kdrama way - he had a crush on her in middle school and came to look for her 10 years later. 10 years after that, they are in a comfortable relationship. Since it's a cable drama, they kiss a lot. 

He's a struggling director who finally gets to debut. The lead actress tells the press she's got a crush on him and he tells his girlfriend that the young girl excites him while she's like a sister to him. LOL. She dumps him, the press reports that he's begun to date the actress, he comes crawling back to her, they get back together but I think he's two-timing her now. He cheated on her 5 years ago and I think they have so much history that he always wants her beside him. But the passion is probably gone even though they still sleep together. I guess there's just no mystery. It doesn't help that their sex actually follows a pattern she laid out. Like kiss me first before you touch my breast etc. So I guess he's bored. And now also likes other women. Or maybe it's classic kdrama misdirection. 

There's also her co-worker who obviously has a thing for her but I think he's going to end up with a broken heart. I wish she'd ditch her boyfriend but he's the main lead and the bigger name. Drats! 

Then there's the Samantha of the group. She's a model who dates a lot and cheats on all her boyfriends. She's in love with an ex who's married with a pregnant wife but has an antagonistic relationship with her assistant. I guess he's like her Smith and will end up with her. 

All in all, a cute show about love and friendship and already way more interesting that its predecessor, Manny. Let's hope it doesn't begin to tank as the weeks go by. 

Michael and Nikita Version 2

So Michael and Nikita of La Femme Nikita are probably my favorite TV couple of all time. Of course, it's been years since I've watched an episode of this show so who knows if it still holds up? Nonetheless, I've always remembered them very fondly.

So it's understandable that I'd be immediately biased against the remake. There are enough similarities to merit the word 'remake' but also enough differences to make it feel refreshing. 

Despite acknowledging that, I stubbornly remained against this couple till I watched the episode where they finally got together and had to grudgingly admit that they are not so bad. 

Nikita is a show that I don't follow every week and just watch an episode here and there so maybe I've seen a little over half of this season's episodes. Anyway, I decided to watch the last two episodes and okay, I admit it - this show's Nikita and Michael are not a disgrace to the previous version. In fact, they kind of actually work. GRRR. LOL

They started off the season on opposite sides and perhaps Michael could have caught her a time or two but his feelings won over and he purposely made a mistake or two. But in episode 17, when he was really out to get her, let's just say that Nikita wasn't as confident as she usually is. For that battle, it was either one or both of them would end up dead. But luckily, they cleared up their misunderstanding and are now fighting on the same side. 

One of the major differences between the couples is that in LFN, they often had to hide their true feelings to stay alive even though those that worked with them had major suspicions. With this one, once their misunderstanding was cleared up, they officially became a couple. And now both of them are living as former agents on the run trying to right some wrongs (previously Michael was still at the agency with Nikita being the Lone Ranger). 

I must say the season finale was kind of awesome and really sets up next season. Something tells me I'm going to be watching all 20+ episodes of Season 2.
