disney soundtrack is in!

Sapuri 3! was a pretty good episode. There was a nice fallout between Fujii and Yuya. Yuya and his big mouth dropped big hints about Ojiwara's other woman and about Imaoka's bad fathering skills; Yuya's such a nice boy. He also had some cool T-shirts. The 'best' part of the episode was the building up music that led to the fireworks and 'meaningful' staring between Fujii and Ojiwara. It was a jdrama version of Disney's Beauty and the Beast soundtrack. Anyway, it is still an entertaining series. The sweetness factor and 'cliche-filled' speeches were a tiny bit overwhelming in this episode.

Other series I'm perusing now...

Engine with Kimura Takaya as a race car driver gets fired from the European circuit and goes back to the orphanage where he grew up. His no-care attitude revives the bland orphanage. Cute kids plus cute Johnny makes cute stories.

My Girl with Lee Joon-Ki (from The King and Clown) plays a small part in this series. He's the resident playboy with fighting skillz. The main character, Ju Yoo-rin, is a female swindler who happens to get involved with Seol Gong Chan.....the heir of a high-class hotel or something. Geeeez, what's with the Koreans and pretty boys who own or will own a hotel; maybe it's the Donald Trump syndrome?...but Trump's far from cute. This follows the normal Kdrama plotline: poor girl meets rich boy...their love is conflicted by status, another rich girl...and another boy. There are certain parts of this that are unique and funny. (more analysis to come.)
