The movie is a great comedy romance! Had me laughing so much, while still having that nice serious romance. It wasn't boring at all and very nice acting and story. Not a too heavy love story, just between the two leads, and the seperate second love story was cute as well. Even though yes you can figure out a lot of things, you enjoy watching it. I don't know how I didn't watch this movie earlier. Def. going on my favorite movie list. A nice relaxing movie you can enjoy alone or with friends. It might be more of a girl movie though, can't complain about the rescure team members, ehm ehm, good looking guys. Recommended!! My kind of movie!

Bunji's Verdict

First things first: I get why Jenji is all over this. It is so like her; a romantic “drop-dead-of-laughter” comedy that stays on your mind. I liked it, but I it probably THE most typical storyline in Korean film industry. ON the other hand, that doesn’t make it bad. It’s honest, sweet and heartbreaking. And if you are like me, crying your brains out every time you see firefighters, you will cry here too.

 I don’t want to spoil much, so I’m not going to talk storyline, but acting wise, great. Perfect actors for perfect roles and on screen chemistry good too, except maybe too fast? But then again, 2 hour movie…

All in all, decent movie :)

Code Blue Season 2

Title: Code Blue
Genre: Medical
Episodes: 11
Broadcast period: 2010-Jan-11 to 2010-Mar-22
Theme song: HANABI by Mr. Children
Cast: Yamashita Tomohisa, Aragaki Yui, Toda Erika, Higa Manami, Asari Yosuke aso.

In the second season we continue to follow the four interns while they face even bigger challenges. This time we get closer to each person as they struggle to become doctors. We follow them as they get to know a lot more about their themselves and some even their backgrounds. As in Aizawa Kosaku(Yamashita Tomohisa)'s case, he discovers some things about his past, his father left him and his mother died at a very young age so he was raised by his obae-chan whom he cares very much for. As his obae-chan falls ill and she is admitted in the hospital where he is an intern they get much closer. At the same time his father visits his obae-chan and so some secrets are revealed. As for the other interns they too have to face some problems themselves. Shiraishi Megumi(Aragaki Yui) gets some personal problems, she keeps arguing with her father though she doesn't know he is very sick. Hiyama Mihoko(Toda Erika) has to face her illness and even gets into some trouble when she doesnt get some DNR-order signed so she actually "kills" a kid, so she almost gets sued and stuff. The nurse, Saejima Haruka(Higa Manami).. now this is really sad.. her friend/lover .. well.. he aint okay. I mean like he's sick.. not mentally.. Well he gets admitted to the hospital where she works, and she tries to visit him as much as possible and all. And in the meantime the guy Fujikawa Kazuo(Asari Yosuke) falls in love with the nurse but cant tell her because,, well her friend/lover.. just.. something happened to him. So a lot stuff happens but as always,, things will b just ok.
I watched this drama mainly because of YamaP-chan. Yup big P-chan FAN:D I watched the first drama and totally loved it,, well cuz of P-chan. But he just made the whole thang even betta.. And it was exciting watching him with this kinda role.. like this really cool guy, knowing how to do things and doesnt even get distracted or anything by the situation. I mean in situations where most people would either faint, puke, or freeze he kept focused (i know its just acting and all but still..). But for some reason,, this wasnt that kind of drama which would keep u on the tip of the chair., like when u finish an ep. u would stay up all night(bit exaggerating) wondering what would happen next. Its more one u watch just because its fun/exciting to watch the whole medical procedure.. Thats why its not a super-top-must-watch-drama. Its more like a.. well,, watch-if-u-feel-for-cool-p-chan-acting-+-got-medical-interest. And what might have ruined it for me is that it got subbed reeeaally slow. So i got busy with other stuff and well. yeah.
Anyway. Great drama but not the best..

Bunjis Verdict:
Okay, can you say boring? Yeah, the drama had its moments, and yeah Yamapi is hot, but the storyline was waaaay more boring than the first season, and seriously, nothing really happend in this season! Acting was on the other hand better from all four actors. They are all young actors, so that was a great surprise. I also liked the new boss, and his love story, but seriously? Why does Aizawa have to be mr. perfect? Silly. EXPECIALLY if he's a doctor, they allways have flaws... Guess you can't blame Yamapi, but the director.. Stupid director.. Ruining my likning in Pi.. (darn you!) Lols.. Okay, back to bussniss.. I cant say it was crap, because it isn't. Every actor is cool, and their characters are stronger this season, except Aizawa (who seems to be the best of the best... boring) lol.. SORRY! :P
But its a good watch, has good elements sometimes. Like there was one with some soccer players, and their bonding.. That story I liked the most :)
