1st Shop of Coffee Prince

Choi Han Kyul, played by Gong Yoo, is the cocky son of a rich family who runs a food corporation. He doesn’t believe in love and certainly doesn’t want to get married despite his family’s requests. On the other hand, Go Eun Chan, played by Yoon Eun Hye, is a 24-year old tomboyish female who gets mistaken as a guy quite often. She takes up every job possible – waitress, food deliverer, etc – and has the responsibility of taking care of her mother and younger sister. Eun Chan accidentally meets Han Kyul twice, once on a delivery and once during a robbery. During the robbery, Eun Chan’s delivery motorcycle ends up being damaged. Han Kyul, not knowing that Eun Chan is actually a girl, decides to hire Eun Chan as a false “lover” so that he can escape the blind dates arranged by his grandmother. Meanwhile, Han Kyul’s cousin, Choi Han Seong, is an established music producer and his ex-girlfriend Han Yoo Joo, who Han Kyul secretly loved for nine years, is a famous artist who studied in New York. The two were lovers for about 8 years but their relationship ended when Yoo Joo broke up with Han Seong. Two years after they separated their paths cross again when Yoo Joo returns to Seoul.

After getting an ultimatum from his grandmother, Han Kyul takes over a run-down old coffee shop, later renamed Coffee Prince, to prove his ability, both to his grandmother and Yoo Joo. In order to attract female customers, he only hires good looking male employees. In a struggle with money, Eun Chan, whom Han Kyul has already mistaken as a boy, hides her gender identity to get a job at Coffee Prince. Soon feelings start to spark between Eun Chan and Han Kyul. Because he’s unaware that Eun Chan is a girl, Han Kyul starts to question his sexuality.

Hello Schoolgirl(Sunjeong Manhwa)

Kwon Yeon-woo is a thirty year old low-level civil servant who works in a district office; quite innocent for his age, he has been on numerous blind dates in an unsuccessful bid to find a wife. After moving into a new place, he begins to encounter a high school girl, Soo-yeong, on his way to work every morning, and she begins to develop feelings for him. Meanwhile, Kang Sook has just started working at the district office straight out of high school, and falls head over heels for older woman Kwon Ha-kyeong.

Cast:

• Yoo Ji-tae … Kwon Yeon-woo
• Lee Yeon-hee … Soo-yeong
• Chae Jung-an … Kwon Ha-kyeong
• Kang-in … Kang Sook
• Choi Soo-young … Jeong Da-jeong
• Sin Choon-sik … Laundromat father
• Lee Joo-sil … Laundromat mother
• Hwang Seok-jeong … Professor Ha
• Kim Kang-woo … Gyoo-cheol (cameo)
• Kang Full … Umbrella shop man (cameo)

I find this story cute:) Although such relationships are widely accepted now, the way their story goes isn’t common…like what happened to Soo Yeong and Yeon Woo, it started w/ an innocent crush but eventually it developed into real love.

This story really inspired me haha coz i’m much like the younger ones in this movie.. i’m always attracted w/ girls much older than me 🙂

and it also made Lee Yeon Hee dearer to my heart 🙂

A Millionaire’s First Love

Kang Jae-kyung (Hyun Bin) is your typical spoiled rich kid; he’s arrogant, drives sporty cars, attends the big clubs, rides through school corridors on his motorcycle and – wait, that’s not typical at all is it? As his 18th birthday approaches he’s set to inherit his grandfather’s fortune, but that comes with a price. Jae-kyung is going to have to earn his fortune. His grandfather lays down an ultimatum; Jae-kyung is required to transfer to a new school in Gangwondo and graduate. Until then all access to his penthouse, cottage and credit cards is denied. Should he fail to graduate or drop out then he loses everything. With little choice he heads out to the countryside and a small town in which daily life is far removed from what he’s used to.

Shortly after settling into his new home he meets 19 year-old Choi Eun-whan (Lee Yeon-hee), who just happened to run into him back in Seoul. They don’t exactly hit it off; he’s far too stubborn and cool for school, while she sees hope for him and sets out to make him see it for himself. As they eventually draw closer, thanks to a set of coincidences and school projects they learn more about one another, but soon a shattering revelation will change these people forever.

Cast

• Hyun Bin starred as Kang Jae-Kyung,
• Lee Yeon Hee starred as Choi Eun-Whan

I absolutely love this film…it shows that nothing is more important than the person you love the most. Although the plot seems common… the way they expanded it is really great, the music blends with the scene and it adds more color and emotion.

Actually..the first time i watched it made me think of “a walk to remember” but i know this one is much better ^_^

(and ever since… i became hooked w/  Lee Yeon Hee ^_^)
