Gong Yoo Fever




i am going through a funny phase. i have not felt this since highschool (which is a long time ago) wherein i had a huge crush on yves dignadice, pba player of san miguel. what crazy things i did then -- composing poems for him, writing to radio stations and confessing my undying love for him, writing him letters, exchanging letters with his fans, posting his pictures in my room, etc. etc. i thought i have graduated from that.

then i met arthur. . . .

arthur is gong yoo in the tagalized korean tv soap 'coffee prince'. i watched the first episode and i thought it was funny, something to help me de-stress after a long day of working and studying. before i knew it, i was hooked!

coffee prince was aired in the kapuso station for less than three months and for that whole time, i made sure not to miss any episode. as if that is not enough, i also watched the korean version with its english subtitle (and two more gong yoo soaps). it could have been more as i listed all of gong yoo's tv series and planned to watch them all. too bad, i couldn't find them here.

meeting 'arthur' has caused many changes in my life. my hobby now includes watching his videos and scouring the internet for pictures and stories about him. i became interested in korea and felt an affinity to everything korean. my goal is to visit korea someday. hay, i think i'm going crazy.

anyway, i wonder how long this phase would be.

for the meantime, let's enjoy gong yoo together.
