#참치와 돌고래

[welovedongyoon-ina]

First time when actor Jang Dong Yoon became a hot topic in South Korea.

He was interviewed and made his appearance in SBS 8 News, dated on 2015.10.25. After that he was sought by many talent agencies because of his impressive courage and of course his outstanding looks.

What are some of your favourite korean webcomics?

Hi~ sorry my response is late. You asked a dangerous questions haha I could talk about this for days. I tend to prefer Naver comics. https://comic.naver.com/webtoon/weekday.nhn

I do love a webtoon called 소녀신선 on Daum though. (http://webtoon.daum.net/#day=tue&tab=day)

It’s hard to choose some favorites. But I loved 슈퍼 시크릿, 당신만 몰라!, 참치와 돌고래, 투명한 동거, 언터처블, 낮에 뜨는 달, 스피릿 핑거스, 내 ID는 강남미인!, 천년구미호, 바로잡는 순애보. The problem is that these are all finished, so you have to pay money to read most of them. 

So, here are the webtoons I am reading now if you or anyone else is interested in trying to read one! 

Monday webtoon: 소녀의 세계 – This webtoon is a story all about the relationships (mostly non-romantic) between a group of 4 female friends go through in high school. The art is really pretty. It’s really funny at times and deep at others. I really enjoy it.

Tuesday webtoons: 악마와 계약연애 This is a relatively new webtoon that I’m trying. It’s a bit of a stereotypical love line with a good girl bad boy, but the art is really incredible.

열정호구 – This webtoon might be tough to read. It’s about this woman’s life as a webtoon artist under the worst boss ever. 

Wednesday Webtoons: 연놈 - Another story about high school relationships, both romantic and platonic. It’s got a lot of slang and is really funny.

유미의 세포들 (수요일/토요일) - A story about the inner mind of a woman. Yumi’s cells~ It’s really well done and funny.

Thursday Webtoon: 하나의 하루 - A story about werewolves being discriminated against in society. I started this because I liked the author’s previous work, but it’s just okay. I think the story getting better as I read it. (according to my own tastes, not the quality of the work)

Friday: 걸어서 30분 - The cute and innocent love story of two high school students.

Saturday: 유미의 세포들

Sunday: 오늘도 사랑스럽개 - The love story of a woman who cursed to turn into a dog every night if she kisses a man.

bonus

내 ID는 강남미인! is being released again for a short period of time because the drama is airing. It’s amazing. It’s a great critique of Korea’s obsession with looks. Really well done.

If you have any webtoons you like, let me know! I’d love to check them out.

Music:  The music used was nothing particularly special but it suited the drama well.

Overall:

This was a little quirky, adorable, fun drama special and I really enjoyed it.

The female lead was an absolute fluff ball, of the type that is loveable and not at all annoying, similar to Woo Bo Young in A Poem a Day and as a result this special reminds me a lot of that. In her attempts to make her latest crush hers she brings together a wonderful support crew who call themselves “The Tuna and the Dolphin” and regularly meet for drinks, support and strategizing.

The male lead is played by Yoon Park who I enjoy as he doesn’t shy away from roles that are a little bit quirky. His character is a lite tsundere who is a little slow in realising his feelings but overall is a good guy.

Honestly, there’s quite a lot of handsome in this drama special and about half the scenes are poolside. Also, Jang Dong Yoon guest stars as a handsome young man that captures our leading ladies heart briefly and totally nails it.

The leads antics are pretty hilarious and will have you laughing at and with them.

They also threw in a decent amount of food porn AND an aquarium date so all up I’m pretty happy with this one.

Rating:  9/10
