Hello, my dear readers! So, as you might guess I have had again, a rough week. I am trying to do some overtime work as I want to put some money apart for future events. This week it’s been all about work, exercising, house chores and Korean Movies.
You might say, what Kate? Korean Movies? Since when you’re into that? The answer is, my dear readers, I don’t even know!
There are moments at night when I fail to fall asleep right away, due to the constant change of shifts at work and non-stop task challenge. So, here I am trying to fall asleep after a long day, doing nothing but watching the ceiling. I can do better than that, right?
How the addiction started
It all started when I have found a new site for movies, Cmovies that has a wide range of movies. The best thing about this site is that you got to pick what movies you watch depending on the genre, country, and even IMDb ratings.

I am not a stingy person but I believe that it is okay to save money if you already have an alternative at what you can pay. Saving is not something wrong, but you have to earn the money before you can spend them.
And with the salaries that we all get in Romania for the poor jobs that are on the market, believe me, we have to save more than we think about it. But that is a subject for another post.
What I love about K-Movies and actors
So, on a Monday evening, as I was scrolling on the website, I managed to find a Korean category on the list. I first started with the romance-comedy movies that are entertaining and give you a nice feeling and continued with Korean Dramas.
What I mostly like about the Korean Movies is first, the attitude that the actors bear during the movies. They act like real peoples in real life, with real concerns and real feelings.
They are clean and nicely dressed, I have to recognize that I am really into their fashion style. Also, I love how their skin always looks flawless and fresh and their presence is simply mesmerizing.
Most of the actors are presented in simple situations, real-life encounters and they act as natural as possible. Their simple, cute way of treating the things that happen in the quotidian encounters, the respect that they bear for one another is just amazing.

List of Korean movies watched
I managed to make up a list with the movies and series watched so far:
- 200 Pounds Beauty – This movie is about a singer that struggles with an overweight body and insecurities. Hanna, the main character, to get rid of insecurities manages to get plastic surgery and assumes a new identity.
- My Sassy Girl – A college student (Tae-hyun Cha) becomes involved with a self-centered young woman (Ji-hyun Jun) who humiliates him at every turn. They end up being together and in love.
- My little bride – Korean romantic comedy has a first-year high school student forced into an arranged marriage with an older college student who is on the verge of graduating. This movie is more about realizing the important things in life and maturity.
- 100 Days with Mr. Arrogant – is a 2004 South Korean romantic comedy film, surprising love in the first years of life.
- Always – A former boxer turned parking lot attendant finds hope in the love of the blind telemarketer who walks into his working booth one day. A story about true love, attachment, and real-life encounters.
- Finding Mr. Destiny – is a 2010 South Korean romantic comedy starring Im Soo-jung and Gong Yoo. It is a film adaptation by playwright-turned-director Jang Yoo-jeong of her hit 2006 musical. The film was a medium box office hit in South Korea selling 1,113,285 tickets nationwide.
- My Tutor Friend – is a 2003 South Korean romantic comedy film starring Kim Ha-neul and Kwon Sang-woo. Unglamorous Su-wan is a sophomore in college who gets hired to tutor rich troublemaker Ji-hoon, who is repeating his senior year of high school for the third time.
- Boys over flowers – The story of Geum Jan-di, a normal girl who finds herself attending a prestigious private school after saving a student’s life. This is one of my favorite Korean dramas.
- Beautiful Mind – A Beautiful Mind is a South Korean television series starring Jang Hyuk, Park So-dam, Yoon Hyun-min, and Park Se-Young. This Korean Drama is very emotional and heartbreaking, and it tells the story of a world-renowned but unsympathetic neurosurgeon and his involvement with the mysterious deaths in the hospital he works in.

So you too gave this a start 😂. All the best with sleepless night Katherine! And I might add few of these to my list
. Thanks for the suggestions.
Can’t say I’ve ever seen any😕
Well, its never too late to try and watch some.
Honestly, Romania is so beautiful I would be hiking the countryside every chance I could get.
Mulțumesc mult pentru link. Am o prietenă dependentă de serialele coreene de pe TV. Sper să o bucur.
Aawww, ce drăguț.
Intreaba de alte sugestii, te rog 😂
My favorite Korean series are Historical Drama. Example: Jumong, Kingdom of the Winds, Doctor Hur-Jun, The King of Legend, Kim Suro, the Iron Kings etc.
Hmmm, I never actually heard about them.
But I promise I will give them a try.
Thank you for the sugestions! 😊
You’re welcome! They are fantastic!
Ana, ce mă bucur că-ți plac filmele coreene!
Chiar mi-e dor sa revad favoritele mele. Are cineva un link unde pot sa le urmaresc si pe acestea, mai vechi putin?
Niciodata nu e prea tarziu, Ana.
Uite ai aici un link:
https://www.imdb.com/list/ls056176091/
Dar voi unde le urmariti? Asta intreb. As vrea sa revad, de exemplu, Doctor Hur Jun si nu il gasesc nicaieri. 🙂 Merci pentru lista!
Ah, pai eu am un site de unde le urmaresc, Cmovies.
Dar pentru Hur Jun poti sa te uiti si de aici, nu l-am gasit pe Cmovies:

Oh, merci mult! ❤
Numai ca nu stiu exact la subtitrari cum o sa reactioneze.
Majoritatea filmelor eu le urmaresc cu subtitrari in engleza deoarece nu exista in romana.
In engleza e perfect.
Yey! 😀

Thank you, as well! 🙂
Toate filmele coreene îmi plac. Din păcate, acum nu mai vizionez că nu am cum şi nici prea mult timp liber nu am!
De acord. Dar uneori cate un episod pe seara inainte de somn e ok.
O zi de luni minunata! ✨
Yes I fully agree with you,Katherine! We must respect money and save it
for emergencies.People who don’t respect money, money too don’t respect them
Thank you, Ravi!
Cheers,Katherine! love you!
As a Korean, I have to say there’s still so many great Korean movies and TV shows for you to watch. Movies I recommend: Old Boy (mind-blowing), The Dude In Me, The Man From Nowhere.
Shows/Dramas I recommend: Vagabond, IRIS, My First First Love. Enjoy.
Thank you, Christopher!
Well, I have just started the series and I am going to take in serious consideration your recommendations! 😀
Thank you and stay safe! ✌️
Thanks for the recommendations!!
Thank you for stopping by and for your attention! 🙂
Whenever u feel like this, you could try out something off your list. Have some fun doing something u love
Good idea. Thank you!
Glad to come across another Kdrama watcher. Whenever, I am stressed out with both office as well household chores, I dive into K-drama. The last one I was into was „Crash landing on you”. Its a light hearted drama. You may have a look. Take care and stay safe
Yey, I am glad to see that other people enjoy watching Korean Movies as well.
I do understand you on the part where you are stuck with household chores (they appear to never finish) and I also do overtime at work, so it is a little bit stressful. I never heard of the mentioned drama, but I will check it out.
Thank you for stopping by, take care and stay healthy! 🤗
