Oh, and  I also missed Jang Keun Suk's Birthday on August 4th...
So here's to Keun Suk from the Green Electric Eel in Dazed by Life...
Happy Birthday !!...be happy and healthy my dear lil' urchin boy.
Wishing you lots of success in future plans and projects.
And hoping you cut down on smoking and drinking ^^
So you will be healthier and stronger :)

 Keun Suk did look healthy enough when filming for Love Rain.
Here we could see Keun Suk and Yoona filming in the cold....
in a hot spring, true...still cold though....
I think they're practicing for a scene.

I'm taking this opportunity to ramble about Love Rain. 
Initially I wasn't too excited about it, 
mainly b'coz of Yoona....and b'coz of  PD Yoon ...
the combination of which...made me cringe a bit,
coz of the lack of expression or depth from Yoona
and the slow...slow.. pace....from PD Yoon.

Well I needn't worried too much....It was not bad at all....
once we passed the oldie part of the drama...
[which had all the trappings of PD Yoon's older works]
...things began to pick up^^
The dashing and exciting JGS appeared !
Just look at the pics below :)

Giving credit where credit is due....even though I didn't like her acting before this....I liked Yoona in Love Rain, especially in the part when she was searching for her missing cell-phone and she chased after JGS to recover it. With her hair in a high pony tail she looked very young and very cute. Her acting in that part was natural ....maybe she needs lots of actions in her role [reminds me of KHJ...coz he always gets a role that doesn't express much emotion...I'd rather he do action films, so me wishing him the very best for City Conquest] .

Keun Suk really acts like a photographer !! Well, the endless fashion and magazine shoots he has endured since he was a child till now really paid off....he knows exactly how to look and behave as a photographer  kekeke..!! The drama becomes more alive and beautiful because of the cinematography....with lovely backdrop of scenes....with the diamond snow...the hot spring...the morning mist, makes this drama different from other contemporary dramas.

Keun Suk and Yoona were not awkward with each other and eased into their role as lovers naturally. It's good that they were already friends before working together...remember the SNSD cover that JGS made with YAB cast ?? With JGS, Hongky and Yong Hwa in wigs and skirts....?!! I'm still laughing ^^

Another difference between Love Rain and most contemporary K-dramas, is that not too many things around the central plot is going on, you don't have a headache thinking about the numerous sub plots and trying to make sense of all the tangle, there's one main problem...albeit a hard one. This and the lovely...lovely...lovely snow, flowers, and gardens ...makes it an easy watch on the eyes.

Some scenes of the drama is really touching because without words, with only an embrace, Keun Suk and Yoona were able to express and convey the sad and painful feelings in their hearts, when they decided the right thing to do is to sacrifice their love.... for the happiness of their parents. The writer has got it 100% right when he decided this [above] should be the scene that [the adult] In Ha painted....through this image you can feel their love....just as with his first painting...

Found Love Rain to be worth watching,
despite still doing some powerful FF :)
Not saying that you'll be mesmerized by this drama, 
but I'd say .....give it a chance...
who knows, you might be surprised ^^
