루비 RUBY (New K-pop Girl Group)



RUBY — the name of a new KPOP 5-member girl group under HY Entertainment.

I first saw them at a TV show here in the Philippines called Wiltime Bigtime. Wiltime Bigtime host Willie Revillame, asked the girls if they can perform something for the audience. The girls danced to the music of another korean girl group called 'KARA' entitled 'Mister'. After their performance they promoted their debut album "Get Down" and their Mall Tours here in the Philippines.

ASIANOVELAS in every Filipinos Heart

I don't know when did all Korean drama, Taiwanese and Japanese drama started to invade the television of every Filipino.

But early this morning, while I was cleaning our house I saw pieces of paper with a list of different titles (and I think it's a title of shows) like Beautiful days, My MVP Valentine and Endless love. And I remembered back when I was in grade five I used to write every title of Korean or Taiwanese drama on that pieces of paper. I even write their titles at the back of my notebook, books and keychain of my bag. All the drama that I listed in that paper was all aired in one TV station. When I was a kid, I don't like watching other shows from other channels that's why I only watched Asianovelas on that TV station.


The actual papers  ^_^


Here are the listed titles:

1. Beautiful days
2. My MVP Valentine
    * I'm a big fan of this series from its first airing to the end, I always make sure I watched every episode of it. I also have a collection of posters of the series.

3. Endless love (Autumn in my heart)
    * I cried a river in this drama. After watching its finale, I cannot sleep at all because I thought the leading man and the leading lady will finally get the love they wanted. It's really sad. =(

4. Bright Girl
    * I think this is the first ever Korean drama that was aired here in the Philippines.

5. The Poor Prince
    * The Leading actor here is Vic Zhou from Meteor Garden.
6. Miki Loves Yuu
7. My Love Cindy
8. Lavender
    * When this was aired in television, it was the time when those "lavender" became popular, even the stores outside our school sell them but it's not real it's just for fun. Lavender is another sad story, I cried a lot too in this drama.

This is my own lavender item. :) This is the one that is sold outside our school when I was in elementary.

9. Love Talks
10. Secretly in Love
11. A promise of love at the dolphin bay

My own dolphin figurine! I bought it when A promise of love starts airing on the television, I also start to love dolphins because of the drama.

12. Funny Wild Girl
13. In love with angel
14. Starry Starry Night
15. Loving You
16. Love Letter
17. Endless Love II (Winter Sonata)
18. Endless Love III (Summer Scent)
    * I used to be a fan of Britney Spears, so when I heard on the television that a song of her was used to be a background music or theme song of EL 3 I was so happy. Actually it's not really a part of the theme songs of EL 3 it's just used by the TV station, I think to add some good atmosphere while watching the drama.
"Everytime" is the song of Britney Spears used in the drama.

19. Twin Sister
20. Guardian Angel
21. Snow Angel
22. Stairway to Heaven
23. White book of love
24. Glass Shoes
25. Full House
26. All About Eve
    * Very intense! It will make you feel angry like you never experience before (me and my cousin was so into it, that's why everytime the leading actress was hurt,sad or happy we feel for her too).
27. Sweet 18
28. Irene
29. Senorita Mae Mae
30. Attic Cat
31. Sassy Girl
32. My 19 year old sister in law
33. Jewel in  the Palace
34. Friends
35. Frog Prince
36. Romance
37. Date with Tifanny
38. 18 vs. 29
39. First Love of a Royal Prince
40. Sad Love Song
41. Le Robe de Marriage
42. My name is Kim Sam Soon
43. Love Story in Harvard
44. Gokusen
45. Love of the Condor Heroes
46. Ms. Kim's Million dollar quest


As you can see I stopped listing the titles at "Ms. Kim's Million dollar quest", because I got tired of listing them all and I think if I will list them all a piece of paper is not enough.

Today, a lot of nice Asianovelas are still there, making us Filipinos cry, laugh, dream and love over and over again!


Here are some other good A-Novelas which are not listed above that also aired here in the Philippines:

1. Meteor Garden
2. Lovers in Paris
3. Princess Hours
4. Pure Love
5. Jumong

DREAM HIGH!



I was first captivated by the theme song of this drama. At first I really don't know what its all about. My friends keep on telling me that it is a must-watched drama series, so because of curiosity I downloaded Dream High.

I was already by just watching its first episode. As I continue watching, I remembered my dreams in life. I remembered all of my failures in life, how to not lose hope and just keep moving on.

Dream High is not just your ordinary K-drama, it isn't just about love or a husband cheating to his wife. It is more of an educational drama but not in a boring way. With the help of catchy musics and oh-so-good dance moves, dreaming high could never be that easy.

What are your dreams in life? Share it to the whole world and don't be afraid to DREAM HIGH! :)


Here are some of the songs from DREAM HIGH:

* Someday - IU
* Genie (Tell me your wish) - SNSD
* My Valentine -  Taecyeon & Nichkhun (2PM) 
* Maybe - Sunye
* Winter Child - Suzy (Miss A)
* Marshmallow - IU
* Dreaming - Kim Soo Hyun
* Dream High - Taecyeon, Suzy, Joo, Wooyoung, Kim So Hyun


For a full list of songs from DREAM HIGH you can go to this site:

These two students are Song Sam Dong, who lives in the countryside, and Jin Guk, whom she accidentally meets while trying to escape from a loan shark.

DREAM HIGH 2

I was so excited when I finished downloading Dream High 2. I was really hoping that it would also turn out great because its first season was really good they even got to manage organizing a special concert for its success.

But I was a little disappointed because I never felt the drama at all, from start to finish it was just too plain for me. Unlike its first season, here I never felt on dreaming high its more of 'loving high'  because of existing love triangles between the characters you wouldn't even notice how they've gotten their dreams.

Nevertheless, its still good. If it was determination in Dream High, well what could I say? They used inspiration in Dream High 2.


Here are some of the songs from DREAM HIGH 2:
 
* Super Star- T-Ara's Jiyeon, Ailee, SISTAR's Hyorin

* Hello to myself- Wondergirl's Yenny

* B Class life- 2AM's Jinwoon, Kim Ji Soo, JR, Kang Sora

* Together (JB and Ji Yeon)
