Asian Movies

This romantic film sits on the top of my favorite list! I've watched this chick-flick for more than 20 times and I can still watch it over and over again without getting tired or bored of it.

Dramas are like heavy meals to me, while I treat movies as complete snacks to my viewing eyes. Compare to series, I don't need to eat up a lot of time in films just to make me full because in less than two hours, my starving eyes will get all the nutrition it needed. Crave satisfied. I am not a picky-watcher! I view different kinds of genres as long as the movie has a good story-line. Sometimes, my mood influences my watch-list but most of the time, it is the line-up of cast that can pique my interest.

Action is my favorite especially war concept. I am not really into ghost/horror flicks not because I'm a scaredy-cat but because making me scream out of fear is not really an easy task so to avoid disappointment, I critically choose the horror movies that I watch. Romance and comedy always tickle my soft side, combining these two elements together in the silver screen is a sure must-watch. I am sentimental at heart so melo-drama will never be outdated in my list.

(These are only Asian movies I've already watched. This list is on-going and will be updated as soon as I finish a movie. The films included in this list have different genres (Romance, Comedy, Drama, Action, Sci-fi, Horror, Suspense, Period & Fantasy). These are made from countries such as Korea, Taiwan, Japan, Thailand & China.)

READ THIS FIRST : Because there's a huge difference between entertainment and quality, I decided to apply Dramabeans' rating system. (Note : There are movies that I enjoy blindly, even if the story is far from the awesome line.) I've included two ratings on a scale of 1 (worst) to 10 (best), the first number shows "how much I enjoy" the movie and the second one presents "how good I think it is" objectively.

KOREAN CORNER **


Title  : . . . ING / Rating : 7/7 / Genre : Romance, Drama
Release Year : 2003 / Cast : Im Soo Jung & Kim Rae Won

- She's reserved and indifferent. He's carefree and optimistic. I didn't know that the simple boy meets girl premise can be this surprisingly tear-jerking. It didn't stand out among the other tragic love tales but it's utterly worth the time and tears.
 Title  : 100 DAYS WITH MR. ARROGANT
 Rating : 9/6
 Genre : Romance, Comedy
 Release Year : 2004
 Cast : Ha Ji Won & Kim Jae Won

- 100 day enslavement with a hot but arrogant guy? Sign me up! Weightless but watchable, plain but gut-busting : A movie made to make you laugh out loud. Watch out for the "Sailor Moon and Elevator" scenes!
Title : 200 POUNDS BEAUTY
Rating : 10/10
Release Year : 2006
Genre : Romance, Comedy
Cast : Kim Ah Jung & Joo Jin Mo

- From chubby secret voice provider to sexy big shot singer. A funny and sunny love story about an overweight woman who bravely goes under the knife to get the man of her life and revive her shattered dream.
Title :  4TH PERIOD MURDER MYSTERY
Rating : 9/8
Release Year : 2009
Genre : Crime, Romance, High School
Cast : Yoo Seung Ho & Kang So Ra

- Imagine yourself as the prime suspect who only have forty minutes to solve a murder case and prove your innocence. Time-thrilling plot, engaging mystery, endearing pair and youthful vibe : what's not to like?
Title :  71 : INTO THE FIRE
Rating : 10/10
Release Year : 2010
Genre : War, Action, Drama
Cast : T.O.P, Kwon Sang Woo & Cha Seung Won

- Based on a true story of 71 South Korean student soldiers who courageously fight hundreds of North Korean military men. How could a war movie without the presence of romance be this broodingly heart-tugging?
Title :  ACOUSTIC
Rating : 4/3
Genre : Music, Romance
Release Year : 2011
Cast : Shin Se Kyung, Im Seulong & Baek Jin Hee

- Three different and unrelated stories bind in a not-so-musical movie. Forgive me if I'm the only one who thinks that this is such an unintelligible mess undeservingly produced in the silver screen.
Title : ADDICTED
Rating : 6/8
Genre : Romance, Thriller
Release Year : 2002
Cast : Lee Byung Hun & Lee Mi Yeon

- Not addictive but mind-blowing in its given genre. The Hollywood adaptation "Possession" brought me here, but the strong points still go for this original version because of its emotionally intriguing plot and twist.
Title : A FROZEN FLOWER
Rating : 7/9
Genre :  Adult Romance, Action (Period movie)
Release Year : 2008
Cast : Jo In Sung, Joo Jin Mo & Song Ji Hyo

Title : ALWAYS (Only You)
Rating : 8/8
Genre : Romance, Melo-Drama
Release Year : 2011
Cast : So Ji Sub & Han Hyo Joo

- The stunningly beautiful camera shots lend the slow but absorbing pace of the story a relaxing feel into it. Others may find the romance between the blind girl and the silent thug boring but for me, it's stirringly touching.
Title : A MILLION
Rating : 8/7
Genre : Thriller, Suspense
Release Year : 2009
Cast : Shin Min Ah, Park Hae-il & Park Hee Sun

  6. Hi! I'm a big fan of Asian Movies. Even my first Asian movie was "My Little Bride". This movie got me hooked to Asian films. I came across your blog searching good Asian movie recommendation. I really liked your list of movies. Keep up the good work...

    Have you watched Love Siam and Friendship. They are Mario Maurer's films. I loved
    him in "A Crazy little thing called love", its my favorite. You can also try "Love Julinsee", its a Thai movie.

    1. Hello! Thank you for visiting my blog. I'm delighted to know that you like my list! Hehe ^^ I will keep on adding wonderful movies here.

      Thank you also for the recommendations. I'm going to try Friendship but I'm not sure with Love of Siam. I already watched LOVE JULINSEE (also known as Love at 4 size) and I loved it. Especially the story about bestfriends. JIRAYU LAONGMANEE is sooooooo cute!

  8. Hi again ^_^ lol. I haven't viewed this section at all since I'm mainly focused on dramas now, but I decided to stop by and see if you had seen 2 movies of my interest. I'm just happy to say you have!! lol XD 'The Man From Nowhere' is literally one of my favorite movies ever! I actually forced my friends [1 was Korean lol] to watch it the other night and they both ended up crying during it lol. They liked it alot. Now they want to buy it XD haha. So I'm happy you enjoyed it too! 10/10 indeed!!

    The other movie was 200 Pound Beauty. I haven't seen it yet, but it is in my watch list. Many people have told me it is great, and I am so glad to see that you think so too! Haha you can tell I rely on your ratings alot XD haha. I will have to watch it soon!

    1. Yay! Thank you for relying on my ratings. Hehe :D I have a weird taste actually. Although I'm not a picky-watcher, I can say that I'm more into those gut-wrenching action-movies. You know what, I'm thinking of renovating this list. Maybe if I get more time this week, I'll turn this one into a movie review corner. Just like my Asian drama reviews page, I'll include more details and personal comments here.

      By the way, if you don't mind, where are you from?

    2. Hey ^_^ sorry for late reply again! lol. I am from America bw =] Where are you from? I am actually planning to study abroad in S. Korea and hope to teach English there after I graduate college.

      And yeah I love action movies and things like that! Horror is not my favorite lol, but there are some I will attempt to watch as long as it is not about dolls or a million heads getting chopped off lol. Other than that, Im usually good. Oh and I recently watched Tae Guk Gi with 2 of my Korean friends and 1 Japanese [I love our combination lol] and it was amazing! I ended up crying a few times, but I loved it so much! I'm a Won Bin fan so it was what originally made me want to watch it, but my friend Woo-in told me about the basis of the movie and how much she loves it for that and it made me even more interested. Such a good movie.

      That would be awesome if you included more details! Just don't over work yourself lol!

  9. Hi :) I just finished watching wedding dress and speedy scandal, it's nice! I love the two movies <3 I based it in your ratings. I chose the movies which has 10 as its rating :)

    1. Oh really? That's great! I'm glad you like them. I cried a lot while watching WEDDING DRESS. I don't know why . . . Maybe because the little girl resonates with me. She acted so well, I felt like it was not a movie but a scene from a real life.
