D-rama

There is this one Korean Drama that everyone's keep talking about right now. It's called "Descendants of the Sun". Girls love it, it's very popular - not only on my Path timeline, but you can google some articles about how popular the series worldwide. 

Since some of the people on my social media started to talk about it, of course it makes me curious about the phenomenon. I don’t really follow the K-Pop or K drama to be honest. I think Lee Min Ho is the only name I can recall right now if you asked me the name of the Korean star that I know – thanks to Luwak White Coffee. So I was wondering, what makes this soldier - doctor love story so famous and makes everyone keep buzzing about it each time the new episodes air? I asked one of my friend who’s keen about this drama, "Should I watch this drama too?"

She answered,” No, don’t. You’ll get too carried away (Baper – bawa perasaan) once you watched this drama.”

But then, just like most of us do when we are told not to… I did watch the drama.

I watched it the first time last month during Nyepi holiday. The next day, I confessed to my colleague and said, “I have led myself into temptation, now I’m gonna have to watch until the final episode”

So there it is, 16 hours of drama later, I finally finished watching the 16 episodes of it. The story made me laugh, cry, feeling loved, feeling the tension and suspense on each different scene. It has a good back story plus beautiful Greece scenery. What’s there not to love? You can find many online streaming links to watch it.

But does it really makes me too carried away?

Luckily, I have passed that moment of being too carried away by drama series. ‘Meteor Garden’ in 2001 has made that damage to me before. *smirk smile
