Baker King Review

When I was seeing the ads about this Korean Series on GMA-7, I wasn't looking forward to watching it. But since we have nothing to watch during that time, we changed the channel and seen this series on its pilot episode from then on we became avid viewers of the show and waited for it every night, even if it is shown very late at night.


It is a series worth the wait, it is unlike any other series I have seen with prolonged twists and turns, it was not like the conventional series you'll see. Even my dad is hooked on the series, my father have not watched any Korean series as he hated them as he view them only sissies would watch. Funny part of it as the lines of the characters touch him as well, he cries when we cry of the episode. It was fun seeing "that" side of my dad. I learned that he may be a man but he has a good heart and that he ain't ashamed to let us see him cry over some series, I learned to appreciate my father more.


It is a beautiful series that a lot of people can appreciate, it is about finding a reason to live for, realizing your dreams and making them happen, fighting to survive, the real face of life, and life's reality.


It is definitely a must watch Korean Series.

Lindsay Lohan MOVED NEXT DOOR TO Samantha Ronson

I have seen Lindsay Lohan blossom into a beautiful american girl from the first time I saw her at a Disney film "The Parent Trap" when she was around 11, having that red hair and freckles all over her face. She was still sweet back those days, but after a series of leading roles in movies like Freaky Friday, Herbie, A Prairie Home Companion, and Mean Girls she grew up leading one heck of a life and lifestyle. 


From singer-model-actress she became a lost girl doing all sorts of nasty things, like being caught a couple of times for DUI and serving times in rehabilitation centers. But the worst of all the issues I have seen would be her dating DJ Samantha Ronson, of all people why a 'her'?


Lindsay is pretty, she somehow has brains (tiny bits) and she is a woman, why the heck choose to date someone of the same specie and claiming she is not lesbian.


Weirder than weird is the fact that after she was out of her recent rehab escapade she moved in to an apartment NEXT TO SAMANTHA RONSON. Honestly?! Sweetheart, there billions of people world wide and you choose to be with 'that' person? Funny part of it she is claiming it was an "accident", which part of accident is that categorized? She must have known where DJ Ronson lived and moved in next door. Goodness, this girl is driving people nuts... if she wanted to be a changed person this is not the way to start it.

Basic Information from Wikipedia:

Yoon Shi Yoon portrayed the adult character of Kim Tak Gu from the popular series Baker King which has become the number Korean Drama series is South Korea. Despite the overwhelming success of the Korean Drama Yoon Shi Yoon stayed humble and kept his feet on the ground.


He swooned the whole Philippines with his boyish good looks and charming smile. He first appeared on the series at episode 7, after 12 years. Yoon Shi Yoon recognize that the popularity he is getting is due to his character Kim Tak Gu and not of his own.


The drama contended with KNG's (Kim Nam Gil) Bad Guy at time slot on its release. Despite the show being graced with rookie main actors and actresses it was able to find its way to the hearts of South Korea's citizen. The show is currently being aired on GMA 7's telebabad after Beauty Queen time slot with ABS-CBN's "KRISTINE" as competitor on the slot.


As Philippines got the right to Baker King the lead stars will probably visit the Country to promote the series as I think it is a standard protocol. =) 


Philippines, ARE YOU READY FOR YOON SHI YOON?!

Team Azkals Update

As the team is getting ready for the AFC Challege Cup they will be taken over by a new more experienced German head coach Hans Michael Weiss in place of Coach Simon McMenemy. In a couple of months of being Azkals team coach, coach McMenemy was able to make a lot of good changes in the national team, he was of great help in the recent excellent performance of the team during the AFF Suzuki Cup tourney.


Also exciting news of Fil-Foreign players wanting to join the team came from Dan Palami himself. But this aspiring Fil-Foreign soccer players who wants to join the team needs to prove themselves first and go for tryouts just the rest of the fil-bred players.


I'm so excited with the progress and popularity our National Team is harboring hope it continues not only in 2011 but for more years!


Go Team Azkals!

The Baker King

I watched GMA-7's pilot episode and it was really good, my mom liked it and we wait for its time slot every night. The new series' pilot episode beat "Kristine" rating in mega manila on its first day according to AGB Nielsin.

We switched to "The Baker King" and ditched "Kristine" as the cast deserves to be ditched, we used to be an avid follower of the show watching episodes on iwantv when we miss it due to gatherings we need to attend to.

Since the time Cristine Reyes showed her real color we stopped supporting "Kristine", and now we are hooked with the new Korean Series in GMA-7.

Tak Gu's character is really interesting and the story plot is definitely a must watch, he was a kid until episode 6 and by episode 7, it has been 12 years after. The young Tak Gu actor deserved the award he received as he is definitely a blossoming young actor with a good future in acting career. We watched the series in DVD, and I was won over by the adult Kim Tak Gu. He grew up to be a gangster beating up gang underlings, and grown up to be one heck of a good looking guy. 

I hated the part Grandma died, I just hated Ma Jun (Matthew in GMA-7’s Baker King) as he is truly evil personified just as his parents. His family (real parents) is scary to death; they’re so evil, poor Tak Gu having nemesis like them, they made his life truly miserable. 

Anyhow, the series has only 30 episodes and so it will probably be over in 3 months.
