Lie to Me Addiction

Who among you guys love Koreannovelas? Me... not that much. I only watch when it creates a buzz and I get curious about it.

Cherry Blossom Kiss

One day, a friend of mine gave me a complete copy of the romantic-comedy koreanovela "LIE TO ME" which was also being aired on GMA-7 that time ( though it is shown primetime so I don't get to watch it due to my work schedule). I started watching it and gee, I got so hooked! The fact is that the plot is very simple and predictable, but what made me hook are the characters especially the leading man which was played by korean actor Kang Ji Hwan. He played the character of Hyun Gi Joon, a hotel chain president that bears the following characteristics: Educated, Well-Mannered, Handsome, Responsible and ____ (ok, I forgot). Anyway, he met Gong Ah Jung ( played by Yu Eun Hye ), a civil servant who is always being criticized by her friend Yo So Ran. People thought that the hotel president was married to Ah Jung so rumors kept spreading. Ah Jung, having a desire to make So Ran envy of her, she asked Gi Joon to pretend to be her husband. Gi Joon saw the opportunity to use Ah Jung to get his China inverstment signed, agreed to the said arrangement.  The two shared a lot of crazy moments including a housewarming party hel at Gi Joon's house. Being carried away, the two accidentally kissed each other in front of Ah Jung's friends and afterwards,the two seemed to be much comfortable with each other. Not to mention also the sweetness of COLA KISS... I guess it lasted for about 5 minutes...haha!

Final Episode on  JeJu Island

Later on, their feelings for each other grew and decided to end the agreement and start anew. Like other couples, the two experienced some hardships, not to mention Gi Joon's past girlfriend Yun Joo who kept on interfering with the two. One more twist on the story is when Ah Jung  refused to accept Gi Joon's marriage proposal due to some of her personal issues. In the end, they still end up being married.

Kang Ji Hwan as Hyun Gi Joon

Gi Joon's character is much likely to become one girl's dream guy. He's very sweet, intelligent, meticulous, romantic, never gives up and most importantly, knows how to cope up with his girl's feelings. Oh well, if only fairy tales do come true.... I wish I could also find my Hyun Gi Joon. =)
