quotes from different kdrama’s I’ve seen over the years part I
nevertheless
happiness is like a butterfly. when pursued, is always beyond our grasps, but if you sit down quietly may alight upon you
you know what I regret the most? not knowing my own feelings. no, pretending not to know
some things just work out suddenly. even when you think theres no hope
you’re beautiful
you two twinkle so brightly, it’s beautiful. as stars that shine brightest in the darkness, I pray that they will not lose their light even when darkness overcomes them
hwang tae kyung
then I can’t hold on to you. I wanted to be able to see you well when you came back, so I was trying to see even in the dark. every day, I even ate the carrots and spinach I hate, because I worried that I might lose you in the dark. because I didn’t want to lose you. but I can’t even hold on to you when I can see you well
you’re listening now, aren’t you? It’s so bright here, and your side is so dark that I can’t see you. please, don’t be where I can’t see you! come to where I can see you. give permission to let me see you
I’m going to keep telling you, so listen good every day. I love you
you can not hear it because im only yelling it inside my heart
seeing how you worried about me even though you were that sick, you seem to have some loyalty. seeing you enduring through it, you’ve also got some spirit. I haven’t wanted to accept you and wanted to reject you, but because of this, I’m accepting you. I’m on the same team as you now, so I feel a duty to look after you, and I’ll take responsibility for your affairs, too
ko mi nam
even so, the moon has its uses. rather than pointlessly brightening up an already bright day, it gives light on a dark night. isn’t that useful?
he’s like a bright, shining star. when I receive that light, I feel brighter and also darker. When it’s bright I get my hopes up, and when it darkens I feel disappointment. I hate myself for this and feel ashamed
I am too ashamed of my heart and I just want to hide it in the dark
if I’m far away, I’ll search for stars and think of you
I wish that the world can be quiet so I can make sure my heart heard it right
right now I only see one special star. There are a great many of them, but this one star sparkles so brightly that I keep only seeing that star
you’re not ashamed of your feelings, or sorry for them. Even if you’re a fool, you are an admirable fool
kang shin woo
I’m not asking you to give your heart in one go. If you can give your heart bit by bit, then that’s a start… I’ve started
until now, I tried to hold onto you. In other eyes, it must have looked foolish. Because I tried very hard, in the end, since I couldn’t get you, I was able to let go
until someone will come to love her, I will just stay like this beside her. Because this is a love im happy to give and I wont expect anything in return
jeremy
that writer wrote, 'everyone who doesn’t love is guilty.’ that means that anyone who loves, no matter who they love, is guiltless
when I thought you were a guy, I was okay with it. whenI found out you were a girl, I was okay with it. but if you like him, I can’t be okay with it. why? why wasn’t it me? I told you about my treasure bus, and I let you close to Jolie and I was going to sing a song only for you. why don’t you like me?
for me, those words where precious, so I was sparing them. but if you spare them too much… they become words you can’t say
right now I can’t tell you that I’m okay, but once the bus goes around full circle.. I’ll be okay then. […] once we get off this bus, I’m going to be the fun, outgoing Jeremy again. forget everything I said in here. if you don’t, I can’t ever go back
the world is round, so no matter how far away you go, just like the magic bus, you’ll immediately return to the place where you belong
not telling her that you’ll wait for her is the same thing as not waiting at all
tempted, the great seducer
take care of your own heart too
trauma isn’t something grand. just on some random day, the thorn digs deeper stopping you in your tracks so that you can’t swallow or spit anything out
I didn’t know my mind was something I couldn’t control
one’s heart is like one’s muscles. your heart has been trained to like someone so much that it’s hard to forget it or love someone else. just like your body remembers certain actions, your heart only moves towards the person you love
my secret romance
you planned this from the start, didn’t you? you wanted to get back at me for playing dumb… that’s why you were nagging me. fine, I remember everything. I was lying. I remember the resort, the wine, what we did on the beach! I remember it all
go get her. are you going to let her get away? people always make fun of the way I dress. they say its tacky, unflattering, strange, and that I’m crazy. I know that. I know everything, but I play dumb, act calm and firm. I just ignore it. why? because I like the way I dress. because I want to do it. because this makes me happy
I was thankful to you earlier today. nothing is working out for me these days… and I’m so lonely… I was having a really hard time. but, no one ever asked me if I was all right. you were the first to ask. you were the first to ask me if I’m okay. it’s not even a big deal, but those words… strangely comforted me
even if a hundred bad things happen, when one good thing happens that day is a lucky day
those habitual hiccups of yours, I think I know what they mean. those hiccups are only for me, right?
I’m not your man. I’m mine.
I think you’re a force to be reckoned with
I wanted to do what I could to be with you. I don’t want to eat by myself
I’ll go wherever my heart takes me. Let’s see how far it takes us
it feels like a dream, and I don’t know when I’ll wake up
if you try to hold on to her, she might run away
a vacation is like dating. the way your heart races with excitement before a vacation, the fun you have while learning about a new place, the sadness you feel when the vacation ends and you go back home, in these ways it’s quite similar to dating
think about it carefully. when she’s with you, do you think there will be more days when she’s smiling or more days when she’s crying?
I’m thankful that my first love and my last love is you
I know it’s useless now, but let’s pray to be like a coin. you’re the front side, I’m the back side. when one side is missing, the coin is thrown away. let’s pray to be a coin. even if we can’t see each other, we’re always together. even if we can’t check on each other, we’re always together
I can do it. whether it’s 3 years or 30 years, I won’t go anywhere and wait for you. I’ll wait for you, so come back when you’re ready
we never know how or when something will begin
don’t be scared of getting hurt, and don’t hesitate because of what other people might think. just do it
I’m going to be by your side and only eat the food you make me, for the rest of my life
strong woman do bong soon
men are all dogs. dont insult dogs
when life gives you difficulties, just ignore them and laugh them off
sweet home
even the blackest darkness, vanishes in the faintest light. even the slightest chance, can give us hope
when someone promises something and it's nearly impossible to keep, there's a good chance it'll end up being a lie
it's the time in which it's more difficult to find reasons to survive than to actually survive
all of us are dead
they say when people confirm their situation is hopeless, they truly fall into despair - choi nam ra
I still have things to do here - choi nam ra
today I'm the happiest guy in the school - lee cheong san
you have to live for them - lee cheong san
do you know when it is the hardest for us? right now. because we have to save the most people, not the people most precious to us - park eun hee
all of us have some sort of prejudice. we all have preconceptions about other people - choi nam ra
I will always stand with the powerless people - park eun hee
we're the only ones who can save ourselves - lee cheong san
her private life
fill your room with the things you love so you can live a happier life
it's not that I don't like holding hands. I don't like the moment when I have to let it go again
art may be great but it cannot be greater than a living human being. I am still greater than those painting that are hung on that wall. because I am a living being and I will continue to live
money heist korea, joint economic area
it was clear that everyone on the train smelled the same thing. It was the smell of hope
if you’re gonna throw your life away, why not put it in my hands?
why Tokyo of all places? because we’re going to do a bad thing
if there’s even a drop of water from the tiniest crack in a dam, the dam can break, regardless of how big and sturdy it is. we will seize that one chance
if you keep running away, it’ll become a habit. you will have to face it at some point
just because somebody is willing to risk their life, that doesn’t mean they welcome death. it just means they’ll do whatever it takes to make their dream a reality
all of us are just born to die anyway. it’s only a matter of how soon you go

My Secret Romance
My Secret Romance is a 2017 drama that I just watched now. Lol. So this is about Cha Jin Wook and Lee Yoo Mi who had one night stand and meeting up three years later. SPOILERS UP AHEAD.
Lee Yoo Mi is a nutrionist who started working in Daebok Group. Cha Jin Wook is the heir of the Daebok Group. You know what happens next right? Of course they would meet. But not immediately. This happened three years after they shared one night together.
Well, this is drama has too much feels. Too much kilig, too much cuteness, too funny, and a little bit of annoyance. So it's the perfect drama for me. You can expect sweet kisses. Yes, I felt again the sweet kisses. You can see some cute kiligs whenever Jin Wook is smiling because of Yoo Mi. I also find it all their moments together cute. Even though sometimes, they made me cry, JUST MAKE UP WITH EACH OTHER PLEASE!!!! Jin Wook is also funny because of those slow-mo scenes when he's walking around a few people. Yes he's handsome but it's funny! It was also funny when he's trying to recreate his looks and some small stuff that has something to do when they spend the day (and night of course) together. Any, Yoo Mi is so strong, I admire her. Even though she's, I think, the clumsiest character I ever watched. I love how Yoo Mi can also be honest to her bestfriend, Jung Hyun Tae when he confessed. I love how Hyun Tae and Yoo Mi's relationship wasn't tarnished after he confessed. That's how it should work!!! Then we have Joo Hye Ri who's really annoying at the start but then she just really needs to find someone who would feel the same for her. It was so cute when she finally found someone for her. I find Secretary Jang always funny. He was indeed the best person to be beside Jin Wook. I also like her fling with one of the cooks. They were funny. THE OST ARE ALSO GOOD!!!!
My rating would be 9/10. To be exact, I don't think something is missing. Well maybe except for the fact that Chairman Cha wanted a grandchild that he can also post on sns. I even wanted to see that actually. Also, I wanted to see where Yoo Mi and Jin Wook would be together at Jin Wook's mother's restaurant. So, why isn't it perfect? Because why wouldn't these two confess at an earlier time? I mean, it's okay to break up, I just hope they had more time that they were officially dating. But not that I am complaining for all those kilig moments. I love it. Joo Hye Ri is right all time that hard to get people are annoying. Lol. Although there were fights between Yoo Mi and her Mom, I liked how her mom pushed Yoo Mi. Though whenever her mom opens her mouth, it's like a bomb. People may really judge about being an erotic actress or one night stand, but I have to agree on what Yoo Mi's mother said on her last interview. Also, I have to say, THERE WERE TOO MANY PEOPLE IN THIS DRAMA WHO WRRE ALSO IN THE DRAMA ONE PERCENT OF ANYTHING. Jeon Seo Min made a cameo, Jin wook's mother, the kitchen staffs (YES THE FOUR OF THEM), then Yoo Mi's mother actress friend. Also the guy host. If I missed someone I'm sorry. Even the drama one percent of anything was shown lol. This drama is recommended for people who wants to laugh, to cry, to be annoyed, and to feel love. Thumbs up! Oh btw, don't skip after you see those pictures like the episode has ended. Don't!!! There's still more lol watch it!
Here are some stills that I love from the drama. Again, there is too much!! I had to choose only three lol
