k-drama 3 - dream high

The new k-drama that I'm addicted to - Dream High!

Total episodes: 16

Kirin Art High School is just not just any high school. It is school for art and entertainment to build up superstars of Korea.

Even you may have the strong personality, talent, looks, and even wealth, but still, it does not make you any easier to become the next Korean Idol. The six new students of Kirin are up with the challenge.

Ko Hye Mi (Bae Suji of Miss A) has been always a top student in singing. However, her arrogance brings her down. Hye Mi appears to be strong and confident, but deep inside there's an ugly past that she couldn't get over with. Her dream school was Julian High School, but because of her father's debts, she is forced to enroll Kirin.

Somehow, I find Hye Mi's a cold-hard bitch who simply doesn't know how to appreciate her best friend, Baek Hee who always treat her nicely. And I simply don't know wtf is wrong with Sam Dong and Jin Gook who are deeply and crazingly in love with her. Yes, Hye Mi may be talented and beautiful, but her personality just not, erm, attractive.

I like Baek Hee's short hair and her sense of style!

Baek Hee (Eun Jung) is the ex-best girlfriend/ex-follower of Hye Mi who turned into a pretty "monster" after since she was betrayed by Hye Mi. She tries to beat Hye Mi who appears to have everything. At the same time, Baek Hee also tries to win her mother's heart.

Err, who's this chubby girl?

She's IU who plays the overweight student, Kim Pil Suk.

The cute Pil Suk lost some fat in 200 days just to be with her crush, Jason.

I like IU's character because she's soooo cute and funny in the drama!

Now, for the hunks of Dream High...

Jason (Woo Young of 2PM) is an exchange student who enroll in Kirin to pursue his dream. He is the best student in Kirin, so far.

I'm anticipating for the chemistry between Jason and Pil Suk because they make a cute couple!

This is, err, Sam Dong (Kim Soo Hyun) who has the ugliest hairstyle among all. Geez. Well, that's mainly because he has zero sense of style before entering Kirin. Sam Dong lives with his widowed mother in a country side. He then follows his love-at-the-first-sight lover, Hye Mi to Kirin and discover his musical talent there.

If you know Cantonese, you may find the name, Sam Dong sounds funny/weird. I think he's very caring and loving person who cares about his mother and Hye Mi very much and put their feelings as the priority.

Jin Gook (Taec Yeon of 2PM) is a talented dancer who dreams to become a global star. He always appear to be depressed because he is rejected by his wealthy father. Jin Gook and Hye Mi were childhood friends. Like Sam Dong, he has feelings for Hye Mi too.
