NOVELS I LOVE THE MOST

One way of expressing myself is "My Lifetime Favorites", ika nga! Pero di ba pag "favorite", pili lang talaga yung mga gusto mo pero yung sakin "sandamakmak". Maybe because that made me "COMPLETE"...centrum??? Naman! Pero yun nga siguro talaga...hindi mo maiiwanan at makakalimutan ang mga nagpapasaya sayo...kahit bagay bagay lang ito at katiting(maliit) kung ikukumpara sa mga mamahalin o magagarang bagay sa mundo! Siguro dahil napagdaanan mo yun, genre mo...ganun o di kaya nama'y nakapulutan mo ng aral na minsan nasasabi mong "oo nga noh,that would be my principles sa buhay, ako yun eh! "


KOREAN


Talaga Naman", well it's not a negative thought to these Koreans...dati akala ko war freak ang mga KOREANO...kaya sa mga Koreano dyan magpasalamat kayo sa mga Korean Artists and Movie/Novel Directors and Writers and even sa mga Makers ng mga Favorito kong Korean Stuffs. Outstanding talaga at may sinabi kung tutuusin! Galing! Hindi lang sya nagpapakita ng realidad ng mundo, magaling din ang mga connections ng mga scenes...mapapaisip ka ng mga maaaring mangyari...may time na binibitin ang scene Talaga Naman! Pero nakakaexcite manood ng susunod na kabanata.

16 The Baker King!(Latest)

King of Baking, Kim Takgu (Hangul: 제빵왕 김탁구 Jeppangwang Kim Tak-Gu) is a South Korean drama broadcast by Korean Broadcasting System (KBS) that aired from June 9, 2010 to September 16, 2010. The show stars Yoon Si Yoon (윤시윤) as Kim Takgu, Joo Won (주원) as Gu Majun, Lee Young Ah (이영아) as Yang Misun and singer Eugene (유진) as Shin Yukyeong. It tells the story of how a determined young baker over comes many trials towards his goal of becoming the best baker in Korea. This story takes place in the 1970s to 1990s, starting after his conception and finishing when he reaches his mid-20s.
The English version is called Bread, Love and Dreams and was broadcast on KBS World. It contains subtitles, rather than being dubbed. The show was broadcast in South Korea on KBS2 and internationally on KBS World. The series became one of the most watched show in South Korean history, with its final episode receiving a 50.8% viewership rating (the record still belongs to the drama First Love but considering that it was broadcasted at a time where there much less TV channels in Korea, Kim Takgu could be considered the most watched Korean TV series ever). The show's storyline stretches the entire season which was broadcast on Wednesday and Thursday nights. Despite it's popularity, like most of KBS' dramas it only lasted one season. One of the shows main songs, "Hope Is a Dream That Never Sleeps" was sung by Super Junior's Kyuhyun.
This show is currently showing in the Philippines on GMA Network. The Philippine title of the soap is The Baker King and it is dubbed into the Filipino (Tagalog) language.

Plot

     Kim Takgu is the eldest son of Gu Il Jong, the chairman of Geosung Foods Enterprise, and Kim Misun, his mistress. The Chairman’s wife, Insok, is furious with her husband and shuns Takgu. When his mother is kidnapped, Takgu runs away from home and spends the next 14 years looking for her. Through his journey he enters a baking school owned by Pal Bong, a legend in the baking industry. There he finds Jo Jingu, the man who kidnapped his mother, but he tells Takgu that she accidentally fell of a cliff. Takgu decides to stay at the bakery and learn the art of making bread, like his father did before him. Majun, Takgu’s half-brother is also at the school, hoping to learn about baking in order to win his father’s approval and take over the family business. He is living under an assumed name and never reveals his true identity, still having a hatred for Takgu from their childhood.
     It is later revealed that Takgu’s mom is not dead and that she is looking for him. The Chairman, who also spent the past 14 years looking for Takgu, eventually finds out he is at the bakery and is furious at Majun for not telling him. The Chairman wants Takgu, his oldest son, to take over the family business instead of Majun. Majun plots to steal Takgu’s childhood friend Shin Yukyeong and embarrass his family in the process as revenge. Takgu eventually finds his mother, but Insok and her lover (and the Chairman’s assistant) Han plot to rob Takgu of his inheritance so that Majun and take the Chairman’s place. When the Chairman finds out about this, Han goes so far as to attempt to murder Takgu, but he is saved by Jo Jingu. Majun’s plan to embarrass his family works, but it doesn’t give him the satisfaction he expects. He reaches a truce with Takgu and the two agree to let their older sister Gu Jakyung run the company. The show ends with Takgu continuing to work at the bakery with his girlfriend Yang Misun while Majun decides to travel around the world with his new bride Shin Yukyeong. While Manger Han is in prison, the Chairman is happy that his loved ones have found happiness.
