#02 ; 옥탑방 왕세자

Hi there! ッ I believe you must be wondering what does my blog title means? First of all, I want to ask everyone. Do you watch Korean drama? If you do, you shall be similar with the title. It's a Korean drama I watched lately. Was hooked with it & today I am going to do a simple review on this show. Don't blame me if it's very long.

옥탑방 왕세자 ; Rooftop Prince ♡

Synopsis:

A prince from the Joseon era, Lee Gak, is catapulted 300 years forward into the future in Seoul 2012 with his entourage, which includes Song Man Bo, Do Chi San and Woo Young Sul, when he tries to investigate the suspicious circumstances which surround the death of the girl he loved. In the present, he finds a girl who looks exactly like his beloved crown princess...

Plot:

After the death of the Crown Prince Lee Kak's wife, the Crown Prince transports 300 years into the future and arrives in 21st century Seoul, South Korea with his retainers. In the present day Seoul, the Crown Prince meets Joo Se-Na, who has an uncanny resemblance to his deceased Princess.

Past (300 years ago)..,

Lee Kak (later played by Micky Yoochun) is the Crown Prince. When he is ready to marry, Lee Kak wants to marry a beautiful woman. Boo-Yong (later played by Han Ji-Min) and Hwa-Yong (later played by Jung Yoo-Mi) are sisters. Hwa-Yong, the older sister wants to marry Crown Prince Lee Kak, but her father makes it clear that younger sister Boo-Yong will marry the Crown Prince. Hwa-Yong is so upset, she uses an an iron to burn Boo-Yong's face, pretending it was an accident. Now, Boo-Yong carries a big scar on her face. Eventually, older sister Hwa-Yong marries Crown Prince Lee Kak. Time passes and are now adults. Younger sister Boo-Yong is now a smart woman, good with needlework. Older sister Hwa-Yong is uneasy that her husband, Crown Prince Lee Kak, and Boo-Young get along well. One day, Crown Prince Lee Kak wakes up in the early morning. He finds that Hwa-Yong is not next to him. He feels something strange about the situation and calls for an eunuch. At this time, an eunuch comes running to the Crown Prince and informs him that Hwa-Yong is found dead in a pond. Lee Kak suspects that his wife's death is not by accident. He puts together a team to investigate his wife's death. When the team awaits to interview a witness, a group of assassins appears and chases them. Crown Prince Lee Kak and his men are chased to the edge of a cliff. The group jumps off the cliff.

Present. (2012)..,

When Park Ha (later played by Han Ji-Min) was young, her father remarried and Park Ha gained older step-sister Se-Na (later played by Jung Yoo-Mi). When their parents left for work, older step-sister Se-na despised having to take care of her younger sister. One day, while younger sister Park Ha sleeps inside a truck, the truck suddenly departs. Even though Se-Na sees the truck leaving, she turns around and pretends that it isn't happening. Time passes, younger sister Park Ha is now living in America. While, Park Ha sells fruits as a sidewalk vendor, Yong Tae-Yong (Micky Yoochun) sees her and feels a connection with Park Ha. Yong Tae-Moo (Lee Tae-Sung) appears in front of Yong Tae-Young. They are cousins. The following day, the two men boards a yacht. While the boat is sailing, they have a small fight and Yong Tae-Yong falls into the water. His cousin doesn't attempt to save Yong Tae-Yong and actually attempts to hide evidence that he was there. He then jumps into the water and swims away. At this time, younger sister Park Ha receives a phone call that her family has been located in South Korea. Park Ha travels to South Korea and learns that her father has just passed away. At her father's funeral, Park Ha meets her step-mother and older step-sister Se-Na. Park Ha has no memory of how she was separated from her family. Park Ha settles down in Seoul. One night, when she comes back to her rooftop room, she discovers four men, in Korean traditional clothing, sitting in her room.

Well, pretty long. I will rate this drama 4.5 upon 5. I laugh more than anything else in the show. Seeing how Lee Gak & his men adapting to present day, it made me laugh like a crazy person. I love how the plot goes. Have to admit, I got lost in the midst when I start watching. [Spoiler alert] Cos the starting was like Lee Gak crying for his wife & you will feel all boring. But as things process, it gets really funny & you will laugh like nobody's business of how they meet Park Ha & begin a journey together with her. Well, so you must watch. Although there are scheming people, like Tae Moo & Se-Na. But the whole plot was nice. I should rate 4.5 , but the ending was just a bit confusing. Cos I don't know who is it in the end. The whole show was really entertaining ^v^ So I think it's worth the time. I have to admit, I spent quite a few nights watching and I didn't feel tired at all. Probably too entertaining despite having 4 hours of sleep only.  ^( '-' )^ So must watch, okay ! I gathered some pictures. Slowly when you watch, you will be mesmerized to the show ^v^ I love Micky Yoochun ~ ;D

Lee Gak & his men, 

Don't they remind you of Angry Birds? :x
