I personally like this variety show as sometime idol will be invited guest to watch all the different contestant competition. Most of the time i watch only when Super Junior appear as a invited guest. They will show the different talent people in Korea and sometime from other countries. I remember once i watch this episode :




This little girl call Charice Pempengco, she is only 15 years old and was invited to the show as she won a singing competition back in Philippines BUT she did not get popular because of winning. Instead after appearing in Star King, this is where the triggered Charice journey towards fame and stardom. She was invited to Ellen DeGeneres show and become popular after that.


This shows that Star King was popular in the States too. Because Charice have appear in Star King have made her popular all over the world. This is the beginning of her life. Every year, Charice will go back to Korea and appear in Star King.

2009


2010

From the video we can see that Charice really miss being in Star King and MC. Her every appear in Star King make me love her and the show more.

I feel so happy that Charice came back to Star King and sing again. Is like i watch her grow in Star King , the feeling of belonging. Star King is a place for people to show their talent. Some people may get popular while some may not. The show may be a entertainment to you too because of the MC Kang Ho Dong is really good at MC-ing, he will joke and entertain everyone who are watching this show. Not only that the idol will also entertain you with their cute action and jokes.

Believe me, it is worth watching. It is successful variety show as this show have been on TV for 3 years without any stop in between. So watch it now when you are bored :D

[Variety] We got Married




We got married (우리 결혼했어요) is a popular reality South Korean Variety show. It first broad casted in 2008, the show pairs up Korean celebrities to show what life would be like if they were married. Sometime, couples are assigned mission to be complete, with candid interview of the participants to reveal their thoughts and feeling



Currently there are 3 couple in this show, which are:



  • Jo Kwon (2AM) and Gain (Brown Eyed Girls) known as Adam couple

  • Jung Yong Hwa (CN Blue) and Seohyun (SNSD) known as sweet potato couple

  • Nichkhun (2PM) and Victoria (f(x)) known as Khuntoria couple.


In this show different couple have different style in their relationship. For me personally I love to watch 2 couple, which is sweet potato couple and Khuntoria couple.


For the sweet potato couple, Seohyun was a pure and innocent girl, who did not go through any relationship before. Therefore, she registers to experience being married without having any ideal partner in mind. As for Jung Yong Hwa, he also registers for this program without having any ideal partner in his mind. Which lead them being pair up together by the programme director (PD). I can say their relationship is really pure and innocent because this is Seohyun first relationship which made Yonghwa thinks he must really behave. It takes them 3 month to hold hand with each other. They don’t do much of skin ship but more on eye power which is really strong. If you watch it, I believe you will feel it too.


As for Khuntoria couple, both of them are pure sweetness with each other. Both of them come from different country living in Korea. They really care for each other a lot.


I strongly recommend you to watch this show. If you just get into a relationship, this is really a great show for you to learn how to maintain your relationship. Some people may say this idol relationship may be fake but from what I feel and watch I think is real. Not only that, this show will also make you fall in love with the idol. For me, I fall in love with Yonghwa because of this show. When you were in a relationship all your character just show out in front of the girl you like, this is what happen to Yonghwa.


Entertain yourself with We Got Married, every Saturday at channel MBC


Below are video of Khuntoria and 4 December preview. Enjoy watching :D

Recently there is lots of Korean singer or idol being debut and they do come to Singapore to promote themselves which causing a big Korea wave in Singapore now. Korean drama have been a big hit in Singapore since 2007, as time goes by you will see that our Singapore TV channel, Channel U, have a fix time for Korean drama airing at 7pm and 11pm. All this have cause most of the Singapore aunties or ladies have no choice but to watch the drama. Some Korea drama are worth watching as the guys in the show are handsome. Not only that, the actor and actress character in the Korea drama may be some of the ladies or gentle men idea type which causing them to fall in love with Kdrama.

I personally have finish watching this show by reading the Chinese subtitle online. Now they are showing on KBS World (SCV) Monday and Tuesday 9pm to 10pm. I will still record this show because they show is awesome and I do not mind watching it again.

This is my first time watching traditional show which explains how good this show can be. Past few years, Jewel in the place (Da Chang Jin) was a hot Korean traditional drama where everyone in the world know the official sound track so well. But to say the truth I was not really interested in that show last time. I watch the show only when my mum was watching it. Funniest thing is that I introduce my mum Jewel in the place show but I did not watch it.

After watching Sungkyunkwan Scandal, I was impressed by the show. The shows do tell us about Confucius (Kongzi). Last time I was totally clueless about Confucius logic but after watching the show, somehow I know some logic behind it. I was surprise that in Korea they do talk about Confucius and in the olden days they study and write in Chinese characters. Not only do that, this show have love story which most of the girls will love it. They do include some action in the show and humour. This is a mix of everything!!

Therefore, I highly recommend you to watch this shows, you will not only feel knowledgeable but also happy and loved. My mum is now falling in love with this show too. So quickly catch up with this show on KBS World.

You can also watch online with full sub: http://www.dramacrazy.net/korean-drama/sungkyunkwan-scandel/
