Taiwanese Movie Craze

This week was all about binge watching and I got hooked up with Taiwanese movies. I found them really cute and romantic. There's this unexplained joy in these cutesy, romantic movies. hihihihi. I searched for the most recommended movies beforehand and I was not disappointed. 

1. Fall in Love at First Kiss (2019)

This one's a remake but it is the best version yet, at least for me. I liked how the girl tried to moved on and did not beg the guy to really be with her. This is a cute movie. hihihi.

(4.5/5)

2. Our Times (2015)

This one's something else. I cried when I watched this movie. The were really cute together. I liked how I can feel the sincerity of the characters. 

(5/5)

3. You are the Apple of my Eye (2011)

You can really see dedication in this movie. How much a guy should earn a girl's precious "yes". It is really romantic, too. 

(4/5)

4. Hear Me (2009)

This one's really cute and romantic, as well. It will open your eyes to the differently abled people.

(4.5/5)

All in all, I really liked all of these movies. I totally recommend these if you want to feel "kilig". 

Hit and Run Squad (2019)

I admit, I'm hyped with anything Ryu Jun Yeol and this movie is not an exception. Whoa. Badass. All of the actors really did a great job but my eyes are only for Jun Yeol. hihihihi. The movie is kinda brutal and violent but let's just think that all of it is not true. His masculinity when he takes over the wheels. Wow, just wow.

A public life,

a private life

and a secret life.

Ryu Jun Yeol

This is an appreciation post for Ryu Jun Yeol. Where to begin? I'm totally back to fangirling over him, now that he's doing Traveler with Lee Je Hoon. I really like him. His personality on top of it all. You can really rely on him (close ba kami?). hahaha. He's a guy to admire. He's a really good actor, too. I look forward to his movies and other projects this year. 

A passage from Men Without Women by Haruki Murakami

But the proposition that we can look into another person's heart with perfect clarity strikes me as a fool's game. I don't care how well we think we should understand them, or how much we love them. All it can do is cause us pain. Examining your own heart, however, is another matter. I think it's possible to see what's in there if you work hard enough at it. So in the end maybe that's the challenge: to look inside your own heart as perceptively and seriously as you can, and to make peace with what you find there. If we hope to truly see another person, we have to start looking within ourselves.
