MBC 16 episodes drama Beethoven Virus {베토벤 바이러스} starring Kim Myung Min, Lee Ji Ah, Jang Geun Suk. Premiere on Sept 10th.
I like the use of classical music as the center focus, so I’m looking forward to the premiere date. I’m sure they’ll have nice piece of classical music playing throughout the drama. In fact, they already have a catchy piece up at the official web site.
Hopefully it won’t fall flat like "Spotight", and "When It’s At Night". I did look forward to those two dramas; the casts look good, the promotional posters look good, but it fell flat after a couple of episodes. Hopefully Beethoven doesn’t suffer the same fate.

For a few of you who visit this blog
As you noticed the last entry was about a one month ago, sorry for the lack of updates everyone! And no, Jackie and I didn’t have a fight or anything. Hehe! There hasn’t been a good K-drama that caught our attention lately, which explains lack of posting. Also, my interest has shifted, I no longer like to watch K-drama. Jackie still does, but I no longer find it interesting as I did a year ago.
You may also noticed that the bimbibap08 Youtube account has been suspended.
Just thought I give you folks an update — we’re still here, alive and well. Just not posting as much as before.
Good day!

Our Wedding Picture
I am not one who followed reality shows be it by the American networks or local but I was curious enough to look into the Korean reality show of ‘We Got Married’ who had matched a couple of a 6 years gap between Hwang Bo and SS501’s Kim Hyun Joong after much hype was made on it.
Somehow, I wandered what fuss was over the age gap. It is only just a 6 years difference. Let me recap some of my best loved couples that went through me. I am going to match their off-screen age in which the leading lady is older. There is Kim Suh Ah and Hyun Bin from My Lovely Sam Soon who has a 7 years gap between them, Lee Tae Ran and Park Hae Jin in Famous Princesses who has 8 years and both these couples has won Best Couple Awards. Of course, let recap Gong Hyun Jung’s leading man age gap: Jo In Seong (Spring Days, 10 years), Chung Jung Myung (Foxy lady, 9 years), Ha Jung Woo (H.I.T, 8 years) and Kwon Sang Woo would be 5 years if Daemul had taken off. I know of one celebrity couple in which the wife is 9 years her husband’s senior and she had been married before with two kids. Things like this can happen in real-life. Kim Hyun Joong is quoted to have said that once they got to know each other better, the age gap went away.

I do know that the opening episodes didn’t do too well in the ratings, but it is not the point, we will take this drama at face value
Before I proceed to write the summary to Spotlight, I will like to do an introductory to broaden your perspective of this media industry we call “Broadcasting Journalism”. Journalism usually associated to the printed material media, but with the introduction of television & radio we find this media becoming a part & parcel of our live that with the touch of a button of our remote control.
Most types that cover are News, Reportage Editorial & Education which breaks down to Arts, Business, Entertainment, Environment, Fashion Politics, Science, Tech, Sport, Trade, Traffic & Weather. So it seems to that we see this being reported on Network channel we watch everyday.
Broadcasting Journalism consists of 2 parts. There are front of the camera & the one behind it.

Lee & Seo were sitting on the floor having beer & snack.
Lee: Today I will not go home. I will be just staying right here. You don’t like it. Have you thought of it once? Am I too soon?
Seo stood up
Seo: Tomorrow, we will meet at the wrap up party
Seo leaves & Lee holds her back
Lee: Look at me.
Seo: I don’t want to. Why shouldn’t I have thought of it? What kind of imagination I have imagined? What kind of dreams I have dreamt? First time you let me in to your heart, it was heart throbbing & it was happy. I have thought of it, whether it was only you being one sided, but you have wavered my heart. Thank you. Just to waver my heart for just a day, just a day had pass, wish for another day to be wavered. I have thought of it. However, that is the last time, it has ended
