K-Drama: Misaeng 미생 - Final Episode

Assalamualaikum!
Salam saiyidul ayyam..barakah Jumuah!

Time flies so fast that sometimes I am aware of things only when it is over. And sadly, my favourite K-drama has officially ended on Friday last week sob sob.

I love the ending not only because it is a happy ending, but also because it is not a typical ending. Oh one fact on girls, we (myself at least) watch love movies or read love novels mainly for their happy ending... like seriously! 

Based on ep. 1 I do expect that Jang Geu-Rae will finally be accepted as a permanent worker in his current company but since this is not a typical Meleis drama so NO, lol. And when Mr Oh resigned, I secretly cried..haha am I so into the drama or what?

Well one thing for sure, the final episode of Misaeng reminded me of one important thing in life that I usually forget. Manusia memang mudah terlupa dan harus selalu diingatkan, dan aku hanya manusia biasa yang memerlukan peringatan.


What you NEED may not be what you WANT but it may be the BEST for you

Jng Geu-Rae is a 2 years contract worker in a trading company called One International. And for the whole 2 years working there, he really hope that one fine day he is no longer JUST a contract worker. Mr Oh and most of Geu-Rae's closest colleagues wish that he'll be absorbed as permanent worker unfortunately, he did NOT despite all of the efforts everyone have put forth to. Well this is LIFE.

This is the order of life. As a Muslim we need to believe in Qada' and Qadar or fate that has been written for us by Allah azzawajal. And by that it means we need to work hard to get what we desire but regardless the hard work, sweat and tears, always remember that Allah is the one controlling our fate. He give what we need although it may not be exactly what we want but insha Allah, it is the best thing for us. 

As for Geu-Rae, not able to continue working in One International brings him to a better job and that is working with Mr Oh and learn so much more from his mentor. When musibah / test happen, we may not see the hikmah behind it yet but think well of Allah. Bersangka baiklah pada Allah.. A believer will always put his faith in Allah. #selfreminder

May all of us granted with patience, perseverance, great Iman and faith in Allah subhanahu wa ta'ala when tested with hardship in this life. The greater the test, the sweeter the reward insha Allah. The Prophet ﷺ said that “One of the signs of excellence of one’s worship is thinking well of Allah (swt).” [Ahmad]


Till then,
Assalamualaikum and happy weekend!

K-Drama: Misaeng 미생 - Intro

Assalamualaikum w.b.t.
Peace be upon Muhammad s.a.w

Based on the webcomic “Misaeng” by Yoon Tae Ho published from 20 Jan 2012 to 14 Oct 2013

In love with the new, not so new actually - Korean drama and so I would like to share about it! Well I'm supposed to finish up on China trip but yeah.. malas.
And according to mama, malas tak ada ubat! Well actually there is.
Write a new topic! And so here it is hihi

Anyway, this K-drama currently aired on 8tv every Thursday and Friday at 10.30 p.m to 12 midnight. It ain't like the typical lovey-dovey K-drama but instead it is the first drama (for me at least) that is really realistic which portrays the hardship in life and that's why I'm hooked on it!

First of all, this so ever great series entitled Misaeng which means an incomplete life.
It is a 2014 South Korean television series consist of 20 episodes and based on the webtoon series of the same title by Yoon Tae-ho.
Currently at episodes 14 at 8tv. And surprisingly according to Wiki, Misaeng was the first K-drama to film on location in Jordan.

This is a story of Jang Geu-Rae whose since he was a child he was so into the board game baduk. But when one day he fails on becoming a professional baduk player, Geu-rae finally needed to enter the real working world unfortunately he is armed with only a high school equivalency exam. Through one of CEO recommendation, he gets hired as an intern at One International, a large trading company. So this is a story of working environment!

In this series there this boss, manager Oh Sang-Shik, a real workaholic man but really nice person. The fellow intern Ahn Young-Yi, young lady with impressive educational credentials and extremely competent at any task and Jang Baek-gi, such an egoist co-worker but handsome! Geu-rae learns to navigate and adapt to corporate culture, with baduk as his guide.

I can really relate to this series which has so much drama in office and among colleagues as well as stress and politics, you need to watch it! Who knows you might get a tips on 'office drama' you are currently in because I did.
Watch this tv series online at MyAsianTV.com

Till then, Assalamualaikum!
Can't wait for Thursday & Friday to come!
Happy Chinese New Year and loooong holiday!

Dark Shadows & What to Expect When You're Expecting Reviews


Obviously it is May.
And what to watch this May?
Of cause these two movies!!

Firstly, the Dark Shadows.
A story about the cursed Banabas Collins played by Johny Depp is hilarious. Any story played by him never fail my expectation so far.
Though this movie ranked in age 18 above movie, I don't think it is too much for the audiences. A bit mysterious, funny and interesting movie thus 4.5 stars for this! :) 


Meanwhile, this second movie, What to Expect When You're Expecting is another different story though it is same genre which is comedy *serious  but yet comedy* and also for 18 above.

At first I thought this would be something just focusing on the comedy part but its not actually. Somehow, it is deep and there is also the scene where I could even have my tears on it. Indeed there are many married couples out there who wanted so much to have their own baby but God knows better. While some refuses to have one and when they do, it is already too late.
So as for me, am giving this movie 4.5 stars too!! :)

And btw, I love all of the actresses. Gojess!! While for the actor, my favourite would be Rodrigo Santoro!! *smokingly hot ;p




Movies marathon for the second time :)

The Vow: I vow to live within the warmth of your heart!


The third movie review for today would be my favorite one, The Vow! Since when it becomes my favorite? I have no idea. But I do know i wanted to watch this movie so much cause of what my friends tweeted. Most of them keep saying movie ni best la, movie ni must watch la, movie ni damn romantic la and yadda yadda. . . .

So here I am went to watch that movie with such a high expectation. And what I got from that movie so much more than what I've expected, in positive way definitely. It is indeed romantic! Simple story line but its deep. After all, it based on the true story kaaaaaan. And my favorite quote would be their vows. But the one I love the most is the one Paige vowed *especially the highlighted one*. 

“I vow to help you love life, to always hold you with tenderness and to have the patience that love demands. 
To speak when words are needed and to share the silence when they are not and to live within the warmth of your heart and always call it home.” Paige, The Vow.
And for Leo pulak, I love the last sentence. One of my prayer I guess.

“I vow to fiercely love you in all your forms, now and forever. I promise to never forget that this is a once in a lifetime love.
I vow to love you, and no matter what challenges might carry us apart, we will always find a way back to each other.” Leo, The Vow.


I supposed I would cry watching this movie but sebab tak berapa nak focus *due to some distractions. Ehem :p* So I did not. By the way, do watch this movie. Must watch this movie. Cause I love it! *Or maybe I just love the moment while watching it. I was shocked at first but later it turned out to be so warm. And then, so rapid! Ehem. Nervous ea. Hahaha. Whatever it is thank you for that moment. Thank you for the last piece. The puzzle is now complete. I'll take care of it.*

200 days to go

Mirror Mirror Review

Hi there! I'm still with the movie review and next on the 'Movie to Watch' list would be Mirror Mirror. Lately the Hollywood keep making a come back movie. And for the Snow White je rasa dah banyak kot. Snow White with funny version, real and next the serious Snow White with a fighting skill acted by Kristen Stewart. But am not gonna talk about that instead it is about this funny Snow White which is Mirror Mirror. 

I like this movie seriously because the character of Julia Roberts. Being a cruel&funny step mother suit her very well. Kalau tak, rasa macam 'lame' jugak la movie ni. But according to the other 'person', this movie is simply interesting cause of the Snow White. Cantik katanyeeee. Heh.
  Cantik ke? *jealous okay*
On the other hand, the Prince was an eye catching. That's for sure!
 All in all okay la movie ni. The script writer trying to be different with the story line. *eceh. Menulis macam power bab script writing je. Heh* Tapi the last part during the scene Snow start to sing, it was damn ridiculous. Thank God the movie just finished. The song pun was menyakitkan telinga. *serious tak tipu*.
So the stars for Mirror Mirror: 3.5 over 5 *okay lettew. Huuu

The Lorax and John Carter Review

It's been a while since I've been writing about review on movies. So since today sangat free cause it is Monday afternoon on semester break, why not I give a review on the movies I just watched these couple of days. So let's begin with. . . . *drum role*


The Lorax is sooooooooooooo damn cute!
I feel like nak cubit je semua characters dalam movie ni. And it is a movie that left the audiences with fruit for thought. More on the environment of cause. Dah banyak dah cerita with a story line macam  ni. Nak educate those young generations to appreciate and take care of our environment. And in this movie it is the TREE. *unique&colourful looking kind of trees*  And as always a cartoon movie would not be complete with songs. Therefore it is a cute, adorable, joyful and can also be classified as beneficial movie. Thumb ups! 
Stars: 4 over 5 :) 



Next story is the John Carter!! That day was a marathon movie day so these two movies come in package. *Thanks kepada yang berjanji  and took me to the movies :)
To be honest, at first i did not expect this to be a nice movie. Sebab title dia macam tak bawak maksud apa-apa. 
*baca buku dia pun tak pernah kaaaaan* 
But then after I watched it, I guess I was wrong. It turned out to be a nice fantasy movie with an interesting story line. Tak terlalu merepek and most importantly the hero is HANDSOME! Nak nak sebab costume dia yang showing off his figure *drooling* hahaha. Its a movie on the life of the people and creatures of the Mars. John Carter was stuck in that planet and wanted to get back but then he met a woman, fall in love and eventually refuse to go home. And. . . the rest please watch it own your own. Lol.
But seriously movie ni best. So again thumb ups!
Stars: 4 over 5 :)





p/s: I had a wonderful time

Movee Mania

As always.. its weekend so dear and me hook up with the latest movie on the screen..ooyeaah!! *haha..over lak.. Well, among them are these two adrenalin rush movies "The Mechanic" and "Sanctum"

"The Mechanic" ni suit la those guys yg suka action movies.. tumbuk2, tembak2, brutality, killing others *which i dont like tp blh la nak layan.. So there is one guy yg pic dlm poster tu, Arthur Bishop working as a elite assassin to eliminate targets and then die turunkan ilmu kt a young guy ni yg tatau actually his father had been killed by Arthur.


So byk la aksi2 ganas dan takde kesian yg berlaku throughout this movie.. And on and on it goes smpi part ending.. and wow! best gak la..cool. Orait tu je blh cite cz cite lebih2 kang bek x yah tgk da..huu *actually mls nk cr ayt..


The 2nd movie we watched apa lg kalau bkn "Sanctum". Still lg adrenalin rush nye movie just that no shooting scene.. but NOT to worry cz ada gak.... tumbuk2, saling berbunuhan and mostly accidental dead sbb degil..huhu


Bermula dgn mission nak mencari aliran air mengalir dr satu underground gua ke laut *bajet nk msuk national geographic.. so dorg msok la and then tak diduga ribut melanda island tu and they were stuck inside and no where to escape except cr gak jln ke laut.

So along the movie rmi yg mati and kinda sedih.. and de gak part yg tak sanggup nak tgk cz sgt kesian.. btw here some trailer to watch! enjoy~
