Nice Guy (AKA The Innocent Man) - [KDrama Review]


Hey everyone long time no see… I swear time is moving by too quickly! Anyways, I had some free time on my hands the other day so I decided to start watching a KDrama called “Nice Guy” or “The Innocent Man” starring Song Joong-ki, (since he has been my obsession lately :D) and I ended up finishing it in one day and a half… you can say I’m passionate.


It’s not that the drama was CRAZY good, but it did a good job of keeping me on edge and interested enough to see what happened in the next episode right away; which explains why I finished it so fast ;P


Overall I give it a 7.0/10, just because even though I really enjoyed all the different character arcs and overall acting, the ending slightly disappointed me. I was content, but kind of confused and unsatisfied. Other than that, not many complaints on my part.


I have to admit this is my first drama with Song Joong-ki in it, and after seeing his bright, flower-boy presence on Running Man, he surprised me with his phenomenal acting. He can portray so many different aspects to his character. A dynamic actor indeed.


Speaking of Running Man, Kwang-soo was also featured in the drama, and he provided the occasional comic relief that was refreshing from all the drama. I loved his love line with Lee Yu-bi, they were a perfect pair. 


The chemistry between the characters was amazing. I’ve never heard of Moon Chae-won before, but I’m interested in her now after seeing her star in this drama. She’s beautiful and does a great job of going from sweet to fierce in seconds. A nice compliment to Joong-ki’s acting.


Overall an entertaining and sweet drama. Nice cast and interesting story. If any of you have seen it before, let me know what you thought!

Take care,

xoxo Sisi

♥ Tiffany (SNSD) and Nichkhun (2PM) are dating! #khunfany is real ♥


Wow, it’s barely been a half an hour since this has been reported and ‘Tiffany and Nichkhun’ is trending worldwide… The power of S♥nes and Hottests XD (psst, follow me on twitter: @Sisi_Mo ;D) 



So it has been confirmed from both agencies (SM for Tiffany and JYP for Nichkhun) that the two members, Tiffany Hwang and Nichkhun Horvejkul, are in fact dating.

Now, I don’t know about the rest of the world, but I was completely shocked. Not in a good or bad way, just shocked… These two are from the most famous groups of both agencies, and since KARA’s Hara and B2ST’s Junhyung, we haven’t had an Idol couple this big actually CONFIRM their relationship! 



As someone who’s favorite girl group is Girls’ Generation, and favorite guy group is 2PM, it’s like my two favorite things ever, literally, came together… and it’s perfectly fine for me. I find it so funny that they are both my second biases from both groups XD (For 2PM my first is Taecyeon and for GG my first is Taeyeon)


Now that I am over the initial shock, I have to say I’m honestly happy for the two. I know there will probably be so many broken hearted fans out there (*cough* all the Taeny shippers :3) However, I am not one of them. I truly wish they get as much support and respect as YoonA & Seung Gi and Sooyoung & Kyung Ho did when they revealed their relationships (even though this one is on a much higher scale)

pictured below left to right: Hara and Junhyung, Yoona and Seung Gi, and Sooyoung and Kyung Ho. credits: Dispatch)


I have to admit whenever I saw them hosting things together I admitted they looked cute, but since they seemed so natural I never believed the wild fan-dating/rumor-conspiracy theories out there (believe me there are a lot.)


Not gonna lie though, considering this has supposedly been going on for four months, Tiffany did a good job keeping her cool on the last Radio Star episode SNSD was on. Since all the girls were being hounded about relationships while they were promoting Mr. Mr. (because of Yoona and Sooyoung), she didn’t reveal a thing... Never saw it coming! :P (side note: I also hope that 2PM has their comeback soon… I’m patiently waiting for them to return ~)


But now that everything is out of the bag, I truly wish these two the best; there is no denying that they are a very attractive duo.


Tiffany ♥ Nichkhun  화이팅 ~~~

Obsessed With Running Man ~ 런닝맨 !!!

Hey everyone, long time to see! Sorry, I’ve been incredibly busy lately so I didn’t have time to post anything on here lately, BUT I am back for now so I am going to update you guys with a few posts…

First and foremost, I have developed a new addiction to this show called Running Man (런닝맨) ! It’s a South Korean variety show, and even if you aren’t Korean, I’m sure you would enjoy it, it’s been subbed in a multitude of languages so everyone can watch.


Now I know it isn’t new, in fact it came out around 4 years ago I believe… nonetheless I don’t think it became as crazy popular as it is now until about a year or two ago.

For those of you who don’t know, Running Man is a South Korean variety show in which The MCs/hosts and guests complete missions in various landmarks, and or play a series of games to win the race.


The ratings of the show are really high, and I can understand why now; it is unbelievably funny and entertaining. The way the editors edit the show is amazing, I give them props, it must be hard to sort through all the footage they get from all the different angles to capture everyone in the cast.

I don’t know why I didn’t give it a chance sooner, I always saw articles or pictures about it , but since I never knew what it was about, it didn’t interest me. Until, this past spring break when I had caught up on all of my favorite TV shows and guilty pleasures, I decided to try something new to fill the void. And since I am someone who watches live TV music shows, Kdramas and variety equally - I decided to finally give Running Man a try. I actually started from episode 40 because it had my biases from 2PM (Taecyeon and Nichkhun) in it. 


The rest is history. That episode alone was enough to get me hooked. I didn’t know just how amazing the actual games they played in the show were. And my description alone isn’t doing it justice, you have to watch it to see what I mean!

I have to admit, at first I began skipping around episodes to see all of my favorite Korean celebrities and singers guest star.

Like Girls’ Generation:


Big Bang: 


Or just a whole bunch of members from other groups I love...
some featured below - (B2ST, T-ARA 2PM, CNBLUE, Super Junior, ZE:A, MBLAQ):



But now, I’ve actually come to fall in love with the Running Man cast and family itself.

I’m in love with Monday Couple (Gary and Ji Hyo):


I love Commander Jong Kook (Kim Jong Kook); the way he is always strategizing, and scaring the cast members is hilarious.


And Grasshopper Yooruce Willis (Yoo Jae-Suk) is an amazing host, and a surprisingly great runner himself.

Let's not forget the Betrayers Club: Betrayal Icon Lee Kwang-soo (aka Giraffe) Big Nose Suk-jin and Playboy and Original Schemer Ha-Ha (aka Haroro) 


All of the dynamics within the family makes it hard NOT to fall in love with them. From the couple making to the games and chases, Running Man is all around amazing, and I just thought I’d share this with you so some of you guys can experience the Running Man obsession with me!


I know this was a super long post, but the show is just THAT good. If some of you are already fans of Running Man I’d love to know your favorite pairings or episodes in the comments below! It’s been about a week and I’m thirty episodes in ~ Hopefully I’ll catch up with them all within a few months ^^  

런닝맨 화이팅 !!!

Take care,
