Sinking further into madness


I finally managed to escape the confines of my room to shower and jet out to grab some coffee and now I'm right back in my room.  Fully caffeinated, too caffeinated, watching Korean television, to be specific, a show called "You're Beautiful" (promo photo shown above).  "You're beautiful" is a romantic comedy TV show very popular in South Korea that aired last year.  I've been watching it at this address http://www.mysoju.com/youre-beautiful/
This show stars Park Shin Hye as Go Mi Nam

The premise of the show is that Park Shin Hye's character, Go Mi Nyu is an aspiring nun to be but she is naive growing up in a convent not having seen much of the world from the perspective of an average girl.  This all changes when she is chased down by a strange visitor who turns out to be her twin brother's talent manager.  He explains to her, in brief, that she must fill in for her brother, Go Mi Nam, a popular solo artist, for the time being and join the boy band, A.N. JELL.  Why? Something has gone wrong for her brother.  Can't say too much more without spoiling.  Anyways, she is told that her brother's dream is to find her mother by becoming famous enough that she'll find him and they would be reunited.  How does she fill in for her brother? In disguise as a boy of course!  However, how does the band feel about a new member? 
THE BAND : A.N.JELL

Jung Yong Hwa as Kang Shin Woo


    

So far I like this character, just can't tell what his intentions are.  

Lee Hong Ki as Jeremy

       

Jeremy is the clueless, well... blonde.  Haha.  He has a dog named after Angelina Jolie.

Jang Geun Suk as Hwang Tae Kyung, A.N.JELL's leader

He plays a melodramatic drama queen, a perfectionist who is always finding things to pin on Go Mi Nam, he does NOT like her/him at first but she's growing on him.

I find the show particularly hilarious and enjoyable, but I repeat again that I am easily amused, especially by foreign entertainment.  I hope I make it through this day, I feel like I'm going to pass out on the keyboard.  I want to give credit to Kaori's World blog for more pics of Kung Yong Hwa! and Ash's Wall's review for pics of the other actors!
