I can't believe I'm watching Lovers In Paris in YouTube at this unholy hour, hahaha. It's been about 2 years since (yeah, high school!) I watched this Korean Comedy Drama when it was aired in ABS-CBN. During those times, everyone I knew watched the series. Even my English teacher's ring tone was the Tagalog theme song (Wag na wag mong sasabihin by Kitchie Nadal) of the show. I must say I liked the story although it kinda had a weird and "ngek-yun-na-yun?" ending (as most Korean love stories usually have).
I still liked it anyway, most especially because Vivian (originally Tae-Young in the Korean version played by Kim Jeong-Eun), the female lead role, was a really funny and lively character. When it comes to the two guys in the story, I kinda had a hard time choosing which character to side with. Would it be the well-mannered, suit-wearing, semi-cold, prim and proper Carlo Han (also known as Ki-joo played by Park Shin-Yang) or would it be the adventurous, motorcycle-riding, barumbado but sweet and faithful Martin Yoon (Soo-hyuk in Korean played by Lee Dong-Gun)?
In terms of appearance, both guys are appealing in their own right. Carlo, as said earlier, is more of the CEO, rich type of guy who is always proper and gentleman-like (And he wears glasses! hahaha! :p That is kinda a plus for me especially if the glasses suit the guy). Martin on the other hand has this bad-boy, rebel image but is quite sweet on the inside most especially when it came to Vivian. His emo scenes would make you say "awww.." a lot, well if you're a girl or the sensitive type of guy, haha. He's a musician/artist too and that' a real plus! :D (Martin kinda reminds me of a friend back in high school but that's another story :p).
Anyhow, Carlo won the fight for Vivian but Martin accepted it like man (loove the scene when he pretended to have amnesia and cried after saying goodbye to the two :p).
Anyway, I was just really bored and I can't think of anything else to write about so here are a few pics to refresh you memories.

The love triangle :p

Martin and Vivian

Carlo and Vivian

The Kiss
(According to a friend's opinion, it looked like they weren't breathing, and I kinda agree :p)
End note: Lee Dong-Gun also appeared in the series Stained Glass. I loved his character there too! Maybe I'll write about that sometime..or not :pLabels: bored, Korean Drama, LIP, love triangles, memories
