Webtoon: True Beauty

 

I recently found out that the Korean TV series True Beauty was derived from a webtoon and it's still ongoing. I have finished reading it up to the most recent episode. The webtoon will be updated tomorrow. So far I am liking it because Seo Hyun became Jugyeong's boyfriend. Woohooo! I'm rooting for these two.

There's another song that I like from this series. Watch this video.

How I do my makeup

This is my first post for 2021 and I have decided to share with you how I do my makeup and the products I'm using. I don't usually wear makeup at home. I only apply lipstick. This is the first time I did a full course of application of makeup on my face. The first thing I did was take a bath and apply facial cleanser.

These are all the products I used.

   

  

 

First, I used a primer followed by foundation, concealer and Missha Magic cushion cover lasting. The Missha Magic Cushion Cover Lasting is a makeup cushion that gives great coverage for dark circles, redness, and other blemishes. It's also highly nourishing with standout ingredients like Bamboo water and Baobab Tree Fruit extract, as well as Broad Spectrum SPF 50+. I like this product because it has a very nice smell. I then applied lipstick. After this, I watched a video tutorial on how to apply eyeshadow and eyebrow pencil. From two minute Tuesdays and Byrdie. These were the products I used because they were the ones I have.

Lastly, I applied blush on my cheeks and since I don't have blush makeup on hand, I just used my lipstick. I dabbed my cheeks and spread it using my fingers. Here's the site I read about blushes. Blush Tips. And voila! Makeup's done. Even though I am just at home, it's okay to apply makeup sometimes. 

 

True Beauty

I am watching this new Korean TV series starring Moon Ga-young, Cha Eun-woo and Hwang In-yeop. At first, I watched because of Cha Eun-woo who's very handsome, now I am watching it because of Moon Ga-young and Hwang In-yeop. It has a fresh take on school bullying. It's funny though the topic is very serious. It started airing last December 9. I like the actors and their school uniform. 

Moon Ga-young's makeup is superb here as well as her acting. Because of her I am also watching another TV series entitled Find me in your memory. She plays the lead opposite Kim Dong-wook.

This is my favorite scene so far. 

So funny.

Aside from this, I also like their theme song whose original singers were The Nolans. Have a listen.

They remade the song done by Yuju which gave it a modern sound. I hope you guys watch this show. Episode 7 will air next year on Thursday, January 7, 2021. It's a feel good show. Here's the trailer.

New Coach Bag

 Hi everyone! It's been more than a month since my last post. Here's something I would like to share with you. My parents got back from the US last August 14. Because of the pandemic they had to be quarantined so I just got my bag last October and today I am unboxing it so to speak. Please watch the video. 

Of course, I cannot use it yet. These things have no use during these trying times. I just hope that everybody is fine amidst the pandemic. 

I hope you like it. Please like and follow me. Thanks for watching.

Jealousy Incarnate

 

I watched this series because of the lead actor named Jo Jung-suk. He is so handsome in my eyes.

I watched Oh My Ghostess and You're the best Lee Song Shin co starring IU but I think, he excelled in this series. His acting versatility really shines. He plays  a reporter/anchor for SBC News (Hwa Shin) who has breast cancer discovered by his leading lady Pyo Na Ri played by Gong Hyo-jin. The leading lady is not a beauty but she is so funny. This series made me laugh and cry at the same time. The supporting actor named Go Kyung-pyo is also handsome but not as charismatic as Jo Jung-suk.

This series is a must watch. I highly recommend it. The soundtrack is also very nice especially this song entitled 'Bye, Autumn' by MYK aka SALTNPAPER.

You will surely enjoy it.

Mulan 2020

Spoiler alert! 

I watched this movie this afternoon and I liked it a little bit because for one Jet Li is starring in the movie as the emperor. Second, the movie is very colorful as expected of a Disney movie. Third, the action was quite good, although I was wondering why there were only a few people used in the movie.

Liu Yifei was quite a good actress as well although I was wondering why she put on makeup after shedding her armor and untying her bun, then going back and confessing she is a girl.

What stuck with me was loyal, brave and true then Mulan added devotion to family. I cried a lot during the movie. I realized after the movie that the emperor was Jet Li. I was shocked! 

He is one of my favorite Asian actors. Looking at him in the photo above, I don't recognize him at all but when I saw his name in the credits, I replayed the part where he is shown and true enough, it is him! Nice.

I can't help but compare it with the animated version. They used a phoenix while in the animation, there was a ghost dragon. I admit, I liked the animated version better. Even so, this movie was worth the watch.

Meow Meow Song

 I heard this song on the radio in the car and I was instantly intrigued. When I got home, I immediately searched for it in YouTube and I found out that it came out 2 years ago. I learned the song because for one, it's Chinese and I am teaching Chinese students and second, it's tune is catchy. I then started learning the song. Thank you to the one who posted the lyrics of the song, though there were parts that didn't match when I sang it alongside the music.

The following video is the one I prefer. I hope you enjoy watching it as much as I did.

Meteor Garden 2018

I never get tired of watching this series. I am currently in Episode 35 out of 49. I couldn't help myself. Thank you Kissasian.sh. I blogged about the original Meteor Garden starring Jerry Yan. I cried and  laughed then. It's still the same with this one. The original setting was in Ying De College. Now it's in the Ming De University. I like the Daoming Si character still. Last time it was Jerry Yan. Now, its Dylan Wang. He is 21 years old. SO handsome.

He is the only character I like in this series. Anyone could easily fall for this guy. Haha. I am fangirling. I didnt like the Korean version titled 'Boys Over Flowers'. I like Lee Min Ho who played a character like Daoming Si. I didn't like Gom Jandi. So OA.

Yey! I finished watching the series. After watching this, I also reviewed the original Meteor Garden 2001. I definitely like the original more than the reboot version. However, I like the songs played in the 2018 version.

The part I also like was when they were in Canada. This was not in the original version. Shancai got lost in the snow and Daoming Si went out to find her.

This series is definitely worth watching. I am like a young girl. I like these sort of stories.

Spiderman: Far from Home

I just finished watching Spiderman and boy! I really enjoyed the movie. The effects were awesome. That's what people expect from Marvel. What I like about the movie was the humor. It made me laugh. Tom Holland did justice to his role as Spiderman. There were also some unexpected things happening though I kinda expect Jake Gylenhaal to be the bad guy and so he was. When you watch the movie make sure to watch it until the end of the credits. That's what's expected in a Marvel production. Some surprises at the end. What's cooler is the 3D printed Spiderman suit.

He wore this black suit when he was in Prague battling the fire elemental because he said Spiderman is from Queens not Europe.

The villain Mysterio with Spiderman.

Overall I give this movie five stars because I enjoyed watching it. Go to the theater and watch it.

GOT Season 8 Episode 3

It was truly epic. The scenes were all awesome. I enjoyed watching it. Shown below is the making of episode 3 and the reactions of the actors/actresses as well as the people who made the show remarkable. Click the link.

Emilia Clarke as Daenerys Targaryen

Kit Harrington as Jon Snow 

Peter Dinklage as Tyrion Lannister

If you haven't watched GOT, then don't watch the behind the scenes video. You will get spoiled. This is just my opinion but this episode was so awesome. I was literally holding my breath while I was watching it. It does not disappoint. I am a movie buff and even though this was made for TV, it was like a full pledged movie to me. I really appreciate what these people have made. The lengths they go to to achieve that realistic effect. I watched it twice because it was not so clear the first time I saw it. 

I was shushing my family because I wanted to concentrate on every scene. I wanted to hear what they are going to say. I wanted to feel what they were feeling. I cried a little when Daenery's loyal protector Jorah Mormont died. Looking forward to what's going to happen next.
