Kenapa Suka Korean Drama dan Recommendation K-Drama

Hai semua! Harap semua sihat belaka dan baik saja. ^^

Okay so hari ni aku nak cerita tentang drama Korea!! Hehe my favourite things. Tajuk ni sebenarnya aku dah fikir lama jugak and so... here we are! This is mostly like just MY POINT OF VIEW and I wanted to share why I like Korean dramas (and movies too maybe..). So bear with me, panjang sikit entri kali ni hehe.
Even previously during my practical training, ada seorang science officer ni tanya aku, "Kenapa suka drama korea eh?" Ahaa, now let me tell you in details.
Oh also to be noted, at times maybe aku akan compared korean drama dengan lokal drama sini so, no offense but only fact. Hehe.
So persoalannya, apa yang best sangat drama Korea ni :-
1. Pelakon Handsome dan Cantik

Okay, tak dinafikan ni antara sebab UTAMA tengok drama korea hahahahaha. Alaaa sama je macam korang tengok drama melayu, mesti ada pelakon yang korang suka nak tengok dalam drama kann. Macam Alif Satar, Nelydia Senrose, aku suka hehehe. Jadi sama je.
Kalau yang minat kpop pulak, minat idol group, another reason to watch (BTW KPOP AND KDRAMA ARE DIFFERENT THINGS OKAY). Contoh idol actors yang top, Yook Sungjae BTOB, Cha Eunwoo ASTRO, Park Jinyoung GOT7, Park Hyungsik ZE:A, Rowoon SF9, Jung Eunji APINK, IU, Suzy MISS A, Yoona SNSD, dan ramai lagi la. So biasanya yang idol ni memang fan dia akan tengok la kan. Cuma... tbh tak semua idol okay berlakonnya. I mean kadang tu ada yang baru berlakon tapi dah dapat lead role macam tak nice dan fair la kot kan. They should start from small role to get experience. Tapi tak nak la cakap pasal tu.
Yang bukan idol pun ramai, bukan setakat handsome dan cantik, tapi sangat berbakat. Bagus gila. 👍 Antara pelakon yang top or yang aku minat; Kim Seonho (fav ramai sekarang ni termasuk aku, meletops 😎), Park Seojoon, Jung Woosung, Lee Dongwook, Lee Dohyun, Song Kang, Shin Haesun, Son Yejin, Park Boyoung, Moon Gayoung, Kim Soohyun, dan ramai lagi.
Jadi bagi aku, pelakon antara sebab aku tengok drama la. Ada pelakon yang aku suka ke, handsome ke, tengok la. Tapi! Depends juga. Kalau lead dia handsome tapi berlakon hmm ke laut, mungkin tengok tak tengok. Also depends on the storyline, and character. Kalau ada karakter yang aku macam tak boleh tengok or annoying, so might end up I won't watch it. The character ya, NOT the actor.

2. Storyline Best!
Like seriously, most of their dramas are so good and their storyline are just different! Storyline diorang berbeza untuk setiap drama and maybe of course ada aje yang cerita macam lebih kurang sama je kan. Cerita korea ni kadang dia macam ada konsep(?), so kira memang different and cerita dia jadi lagi menarik.
Sebagai contoh, drama Start-Up. Drama ni berkonsepkan start-up business, yang mana menceritakan kisah mereka yang buat start-up business, permulaan business, development of the business, investment, competition, product idea, company details (shares, equity, liability, etc), dan macam-macam lagi. Dan daripada situ, masuk elemen-elemen lain seperti cinta, persahabatan, keluarga, dan lain-lain la. Jadi storyline dia cantik, memang ada cerita gitu. Tak cliche. Tapi biasanya mana-mana drama cinta cliche, cuma lain sikit la kan sebab setiap drama ada genre tersendiri 💥.

(Start-Up)

Contoh cerita lain yang storyline best macam Sky Castle, Penthouse (these two kinda tense story but best), Extraordinary You (different kind of story, a girl as comic's extra character, and 2nd lead syndrome auchh), It's Okay To Not Be Okay (rasanya about mental problem/syndrome macam tu, tak tengok habis hehe but people would agree this is one of the best drama).

(Penthouse)

Itu Korea punya drama. Kalau cerita melayu sini, hmm... Drama melayu banyak kisah cinta and mostly tak banyak beza pun storyline dia, quite cliche sometimes. Balik-balik cinta dua darjat, cemburu sebab orang ketiga, miskin jatuh cinta dengan kaya, konflik rebut harta, konflik cinta cliche, and the concept goes on. Kerja pulak memanjang kerja pejabat, business. Tapi mengaku la jugak ada cerita cinta yang cliche tapi okay la best jugak, cuma mungkin storyline boleh digarap menjadi lebih baik. Bukan sekadar cinta semata-mata.
TAPI memang ada je drama melayu yang best cerita dia, dan penceritaannya berbeza, tak dinafikan. Macam drama Mandatori, sumpah best dan storyline dia berbeza. Aku pernah tulis review kat entri sebelum-sebelum ni. Drama pendek tapi best dan lain daripada cerita melayu lain. Cerita pasal psikometrik kalau tak silap aku. Selain daripada tu, Gerak Khas, drama Mona (tv3) pun ada kelainan sikit. Ha, Paskal pun gempak weh. Best! Oh tapi tu movie la hahaha.

3. Pelbagai Genre
This is one of the best part in Korean dramas! They have most of every genre, I would say. Ada macam-macam genre yang boleh korang pilih. Thriller, horror, mystery, historical, medical, romance, family, teenagers, school, music, comedy, law, science-fiction, fantasy, and list goes on. Antara genre yang aku paling suka ialah medical, historical, science fiction, and also romantic-comedy. Kecuali romantik-komedi, yang lain-lain yang aku suka tu antara genre yang susah atau belum ada kat malaysia ni (I know it's maybe due to the production cost might be high).

Kalau drama korea yang melibatkan medical memang aku suka gila, walaupun tak semua drama medical aku tengok hehe. Tapi seriously, their medical drama like wow! The way they acting as doctors, nurse, physiotherapist, and others are sooooo convincing. Mungkin ada je part yang secara praktikal salah lakonannya tapi sikit jela aku rasa kot. Dan kalau ada pun kau macam tak nampak salah tu sebab nampak real. Dalam medical drama jugak diorang agak detail dan diorang akan letak caption meaning sesuatu term dalam drama tu. Contohnya, Arterial Blood Gases, apa maksud term tu dia akan masukkan as caption kat tepi. So at the same time the drama give us some knowledges.
Contoh medical drama; Descendants of the Sun (weiii all-time favourite doo), Romantic Dr Kim 1 & 2, One Poem A Day, Hospital Ship, Hospital Playlist, Dr John.
Historical. Korea ni diorang memang terkenal dan kaya dengan sejarah jugak. Korea masih ada lagi tinggalan bangunan bersejarah, macam diorang punya Palace. Ada era kerajaan Joseon, Baekje, Silla, Goryeo, dan lain lagi la. Aku ni pun daripada tak tahu apa dinasti yang Korea ada pun aku dah jadi tahu tau. Dia ada macam-macam storyline jugak la kalau historical dan aku memang suka.
Antara contoh drama historical yang aku tengok; Mr. Queen (hehe best wehh!!😆), Scarlet Heart, Hwarang, The Tale of Nokdu, 100 Days Prince.
Senang cerita, kebanyakan genre cerita diorang best dan lain. Kisah cinta mungkin sama tapi bila korang tengok cerita yang ada konsep atau ada distinct genre (ex: medical, historical, law, business etc), kisah cinta yang cliche tu macam tak nampak sangat sebab dah cover dengan konsep/another genre cerita tu. So tak rasa cerita yang cliche.

4. Kajian dan Detail
Interesting part! Yang minat drama Korea mungkin perasan benda ni. Diorang punya cerita boleh dikatakan details dan ada kajian yang diorang buat. The writer or director (of course I believe actors too) did some deep research about the story, for example like medical story. Memang aku pun takla tahu sejauh mana diorang research tapi kalau korang tengok macam, wow. The drama would look so real. The medical and law terms. Contoh, simptom sesuatu penyakit, the pathophysiology of the disease. I'm sure, perkara medical ni bukan sesuatu yang senang-senang nak buat cerita dan difahami supaya nampak realistik. These medical terms. How they diagnose, tests, surgery, everything.

(click the pic. try watching this, notice the medical terms and the acting)

Dan daripada medical drama ni pun, kita boleh belajar banyak perkara sebenarnya. That is one of the thing that I like the MOST in medical drama. Even in the law drama, they are quite details. About the laws, the Acts, the Sections, and so on la idk (aku pun tak tau sangat law ni).
Even drama-drama biasa seperti romance, comedy, family, ada details dalam cerita tu. Dalam kebanyakan drama korea, pekerjaan karakter utama (biasanya) tu pun diorang make in details and real. For example a drama that I currently watching, "She Would Never Know". Drama ni kisah cinta tapi dia berlatarbelakangkan kerjaya sebagai brand marketer. Dalam cerita ni dia tak tunjuk yang marketer duduk office sahaja, pastu cerita cinta. NO. Dia masukkan macam mana kerjaya seorang brand marketer tu. Mungkin tak betul-betul details, tapi secara kasar boleh nampak kerjaya sebagai brand marketer. In-house inventory, door-to-door sales, target sales, product event, and so on. Bukan sekadar hiasan title pekerjaan sahaja. The writers and director make it in details and realistic.
Kalau cerita melayu aku tengok, balik-balik kerja office, pergi site, dah. Takde details sangat pun. Contoh kerja arkitek, tapi tunjuk duduk kat office memanjang. Bila meeting ke apa, terus jadi silence scene, letak background music. Dah. Mostly hanya fokus kat kisah cinta, kalau drama cinta la. Kerja doktor pun, cuma surface gitu je. Pakai coat doktor, stetoskop, cakap-cakap sikit, dah. Title pekerjaan tu seolah-olah hanya sekadar title aje, hiasan.
So bagi aku, kajian dan details ni macam menambah perisa kepada drama-drama ni semua. Jadikan lagi menarik dan berilmu gitu. Drama tu jadi more balance la. Agree? 😉

5. Kualiti Produksi
Kualiti memang antara terbaik la. Kalau ada yang tak tahu la kan, Korea ni sememangnya terkenal sebagai negara yang mempunyai teknologi tinggi.
Kualiti produksi diorang memang bagus. Macam Computer-generated imaginery (CGI), Visual Effects (VFX), Special Effects (SFX), memang gempak. Kalau tengok macam real. Contoh drama Alice, Goblin/The Guardian. All the effects looking so freaking real and amazing.
Also! Another BEST DRAMA with these effects, good production quality; SWEET HOME. Gempak gila wehh, sumpah best! Dia punya monster gila real wehh. SWEAR ITS ONE OF THE BEST DRAMA I EVER WATCHED. Short drama je, 10 episod tapi memang best! Dia pasal monster revolution from human, due to their desire. Tapi yela, dia punya produksi lagi hebat sebab dia collaborate dengan Hollywood team production so yeah. American animation kan memang top, macam cerita Marvel Avengers tu.

So that's all the reason. Mungkin ada lagi yang lain, tapi cukup la tu. Now, let's get into my K-Drama recommendation from me. But I will recommend the latest one only, since 2020 up to today. (btw ni bukan urutan paling best, just random)
Drama Recommendation
1. Start-Up
Hahaha yess, daripada awal lagi aku duk mention drama ni. Honestly, tak sure la untuk recommend hahaha tapi kalau nak rasa sakit hati, patah hati, dan jatuh cinta dengan Han Ji Pyeong, sangat la dialu-alukan. Dengan berbesar hati nak jemput korang masuk #TeamHanJipyeong 😎
Gurau je, but still that is true. Hehehe. Dan jugak kalau korang jenis berminat dengan cerita business start-up ni, boleh la tengok. Anyway, bagi aku best la. Tengok tau!
2. Sweet Home
WEHHH NI SUMPAH KENA TENGOK TAU! BEST DAN GEMPAK! 👍👍 Tapi kalau korang jenis tak suka tengok darah banyak-banyak (macam aku, tapi tengok jugak), bukan peminat cerita monster ke, thriller ke, ikut suka la. Anyway memang best dan bagi aku, ni wajib tengok.
3. True Beauty
Haaa ini pun best gila dan kelakar wehh. Setiap episod confirm korang akan gelak tak kering gusi. Kejap sedih, pastu kejap lagi ada aje scene gelak. Storyline dan karakter dia semua hebat dan bagus-bagus. Kena tengok! Alkisah this one girl menggunakan make up untuk menjadi lebih cantik.
4. Mr. Queen
Untuk yang minat cerita historical, recommend cerita ni. Tapi dia bukan la banyak cerita history cuma background dia daripada zaman Joseon(?). Dan genre drama ni, romantik komedi so memang best dan kelakar wehh. Sumpah best, tengok please!
5. Find Me In Your Memory
Ni pun antara favourite drama aku tau! Bestt so please tengok okay? Hope kena taste korang la hehe.
6. Alice
Haa ini pun best gilaaaa! Kalau korang suka science-fiction, physics, time travel, mystery, boleh la tengok cerita ni. SUSPENSE. Cerita dia memang lain daripada yang lain. Memang macam illogical, tak real in real life, tapi nama pun cerita fiksyen. Cerita rekaan. So, tengok tau.
7. Mystic Pop-Up Bar
Aku pernah buat review drama ni, so kena tengok okay. Best, dia cerita more like, slice of life. Dia fantasy tapi ada cerita yang mana beberapa senario dalam ni berlaku dalam komuniti kita. Haa gitu la.
8. 18 Again
Drama ni pun KENA TENGOK. BEST! Aku ada review drama ni dalam entri aku sebelum ni, so please tengok. Dia more to family story, tapi memang best la bagi aku. 👍
9. Crash Landing On You
Okay, ini pun memang kena masuk list. Best gila! Kelakar pun yeee. Sumpah best wehhh hahahaha kena tengok. Alkisah wanita South Korea terlanding kat North Korea dan jatuh cinta. Best 🙌
10. Romantic Dr. Kim 2
Ha, yang suka medical drama boleh tengok cerita ni. Best, tak tipu. Ni season 2 tapi kalau tak tengok season 1 pun boleh je faham. Sebab aku pun tak tengok yang first season hahahaha. Anyway, memang best so tengok la okay?*Additional, Hospital Playlist pun best. hehehe.

Okay itu aje la rasanya. Banyak lagi drama best tapi kalau sambung memang takkan habis hahaha. So harap korang enjoy dan membuka minda kalian yang tak faham kenapa suka tengok cerita korea. Dia sama je macam cerita western, sebab diorang macam bagi another genre yang kita tak dapat kat malaysia ni. Dan bagi aku, kadang tu writer malaysia ada je cerita yang best tapi mungkin salah satu sebab the investment cost of the story maybe makan banyak bajet so yeah. Kalau tengok cerita korea tu, boleh tahan diorang invest duit untuk buat cerita tu. But still, even if kisah cinta, aku rasa writer malaysia boleh buat cerita yang lebih menarik lagi. And like I said, maybe add more details which will be more interesting and nice.
Walaupun entri ni bunyi macam aku sokong dan puji produksi korea (and admit there's little bad influence like for romance drama, you know..), tapi aku masih sokong produksi tempatan. I do acknowledge some of the malaysian dramas are getting better, and especially the movies, are improving and really good! 👍🏻
Semua ni hanyalah daripada pandangan aku semata-mata. Tak ada sebarang perasaan benci ke, nak banding-banding ke, saja nak tunjuk kelemahan ke apa. Ni pandangan aku yang mungkin korang setuju atau tidak setuju. So hope no offense but kalau aku ada salah cakap, just tell me.
Alright, that's all from me. Terima kasih sudi baca panjang lebar ni hehe. Kalau korang ada nak komen drama favorite korang ke, nak minta recommendation daripada aku, tanya je kat komen bawah okay?
Until we meet again. Thank you! 🌹

To raise their children and living as married couple at young age, they forget their ambition/career and focusing on working instead to find money for the family. The marriage conflict rises where Jung Da Jung started to feel of unable to bear with Hong Dae Young anymore. She even hand him the divorce paper. Hong Dae Young was then got fired from his job.

He looks back into his life as a jobless middle-age man, and regrets on his past life. He also wish that he can go back into the time when he was young. And at that moment, his body turns into 18-years old boy of Hong Dae Young but inside is still 37-years old man. Taken that into opportunity, he's going back to his prime young life where he didn't get to pursue his ambition in past. He changed his name into Go Woo Young and started his new life. He also going back to his old school, where his son and daughter was studied at. Through that, he learnt about his children's side that he never know and see when he was their dad.

Well I don't know, maybe there will be some of you didn't like the love story between 18-years old boy with 37-years old woman. But still, inside of the body is 37-years old guy actually you know, hahahahaha. You will find it hilarious watching it. But can be sad at times :'))

And honestly, yeah. I watched this and almost every episode got me laugh and then crying and then laugh again and then crying again! Its very family drama, for me. (spoiler! I cry for real at ep 13 😭)

Ah also Lee Do Hyun's acting is super good in this drama! I mean, how he portrays the character of old Hong Dae Young and the young Go Woo Young, so good. 👍

Drama Review: Mystic Pop Up Bar / SsanggapPocha

Hi guys! We meet again! Hehe. As I said previously, there's something I want to tell and recommend you guys. So this is it! A K-drama review!
MYSTIC POP UP BAR / SSANGGAP POCHA

Title: Ssanggap Pocha / Mystic Pop Up Bar

Casts: Hwang Jung Eum (Weolju), Yook Sung Jae (Han Kang Bae), Choi Won Young (Guibanjang), Jung Da Eun (Kang Yeo Rin), Lee Joon Hyuk (Yeomrabujang) etc..

Published Date: 20th May - 25th June 2020

Episodes: 12 episodes (Completed)

Synopsis: A drama adapted from a famous webtoon, which revolve between 3 people, Weolju, Guibanjang, and Han Kangbae, where they are running a mystic pop up bar that only opens at night.  Their customers consist of normal people and also spirits. They are open to heal and solve the grudges of the people in order to reach a quota of Weolju's punishment. Han Kangbae, who has a special ability that can make people to spill their worries, agreed to help Weolju to reach the quota. The grudges they settled depicts the things that happens in the real life. This drama also reveal the past stories that lies behind the 3 of them. What's relation between them? You have to watch! :p

This drama consist of several genres; slice of life, fantasy, comedy, romance, family-oriented, and a bit thriller I think. The drama also have lots of wise lines that could heal your soul and can make it as your life quote! Not to say, the drama also will bring people who watched this to a whole rollercoaster of emotions! (I've been there hehe 😄😂😭😱😍)

*I make the synopsis partly on my own, based on my point of view after watching! :D

My Review (I almost forget about this hahaha):

For me, this drama is really the best! Although it's maybe kinda illogical hahaha but then its just a story, right? The best thing is that how the story of the people's grudges in every episode are very related or happens in our real life. When you watch, "ah.. it really happens in real life.", "There are people like this.", "There are people who have this kind of problem.", this thought will appear in your mind. Or maybe, things that happens around you, or even yourself. The kind of story that you can really relate. They solved their problems in which I think it would heal ours too. Their words of wisdom sometimes can even make you feel very touched. Feels like they are talking to you. That kind of feel.  That is one of the reason why I really like this drama. It is such a healing drama, honestly.

Then another thing is, the great chemistry of Weolju, Kangbae, and Guibanjang. Wahh, seriously I really love this trio! There's no awkwardness you can feel and their just chemistry just blend in well. And of course, there's a lot of emotions you gonna feel just between these three. Happy, sad, touched, thrilled, and even friend-family-relationship.

And the bestttt things ever is! Their CG effect are superb!! Not gonna lie guys, their cg effect really looks real! If you ever have watched Goblin (one of the famous korean drama), you know that kind of sword effect, power effect. Something like that, but then this one I think it is much MORE REAL! Many of them who watched this, praising a lot for the effect they put. When you watch, you will be like "Wow! So real!" "nice gilaaa". hahaha yeah that kind of reaction maybe. Real thumbs up to the editing teams 👍👍

Overall, the storyline, casts, chemistry between actors, graphic effects, life lessons, and everything are just really GOOD. Tho it might not have the high rating but mostly would agreed, this drama is the best. It really has a complete package emotions and story. That's why I would be VERY RECOMMEND THIS DRAMA for you guys to watch.

Tengok drama ni kejap kau senyum, kejap ketawa, pastu nangis pulak, then ketawa balik, pastu, touching moment, pastu senyum, pastu rasa dendam marah pun ada. Haaa apa lagi nak semua ada kott. Try la tengok, tak rugi! Hehe 😃

Tapi tu la, 12 episod je wehh tak cukup rasanya huhu. But still, 12 episod pun tetap terbaik! So please watch it! ^^

This is kinda like the chart relation between them, how all the characters are connected. Psst, spoiler alert! The chart was CHANGED in the middle of drama! It changed between Weolju, Kangbae, and Guibanjang! (I wonder if I should put the new chart here hehe...)

This is their pop up bar!

Main casts: Guibanjang, Weolju, and Kangbae 😄

Teaser! This is one of the funny episode. Hehe, if you guys want to know, so watch it okay? ^^

I don't know if any read or remember when I mentioned this guy in my previous posts.. but ye guys! This the man that I love lol hihihi. The reason why I watching this actually because of sungjae (yeah BTOB! hehe) but end up, I love all of them especially the trio 😭

You guys really should watch, this trio is my favourite now! Since the drama already ended, bet I'm gonna miss this trio! 😭 You can see and feel their chemistry well in the drama. And you know what, I think most of them who watched this wants SEASON 2!! Can't get enough with this trio and wish to see them together again :'(

But sadly, we won't for the time being. Okay I didn't mean we will get season 2 but even IF, we have to wait sungjae back from military. Yeah, he already enlisted TT (btw if anyone doesn't know, korean  man have enlist things where they need to go to army to serve the country before 30 y/o).
Okay so please watch it! Where to watch? You guys can watch it on NETFLIX! (or on the not-official-website drama, like kissasian or dramacool I mean hehe :p)
Here a few trailers for you to watch! You will never regret watching this drama. Have fun! 🎬😎

**(psst, you guys can comment below if you have watched it or gonna watch it! just tell me if you want hihi)

Drama Review (Korean): A Poem A Day

🌸 Assalamualaikum 🌸

Hai gais! ✋
So, untuk entri kali ni sis nak share dengan korang tentang satu drama Korea yang boleh dikatakan masih baru juga la though dah episod 8 pun hehe. Still ongoing lagi cerita ni.
Cerita apa ye?
Ini dia, A POEM A DAY. 📓

SYNOPSIS:
The story of lives of people who work at the hospital like physical therapists, rehabilitation therapists, radiologists, nurses, medical trainees and more. Ye Jae Wook (Lee Joon Hyuk) works as a physical therapist and also teaches in the same field. He begins to work as a team leader at a hospital. Woo Bo Young (Lee Yoo Bi) has been working as a physical therapist for 3 years. She wanted to become a poet, but due to her poor family background she studied to become a physical therapist. Shin Min Ho (Jang Dong Yoon) is a trainee, but he isn’t interested in physical therapy. His grades weren’t good enough for medical school and his parents, who are both doctors, made him study physical therapy
(Source from dramacool)
GENRE:  Medical, poetry, romance, comedy (both romance and comedy are not a major genre in this drama)
There are reasons why I like and recommended this drama to you guys.
1. Because its about medical, one of the BIG reasons why I love this drama. Though it is not major in what I was in, but I think for me, anything about medical I would love to watch it! So, drama ni berkisahkan tentang kehidupan sebagai seorang physical therapist (it is more on this occupation) dan juga medical staff yang lain. As you know, sangat jarang or maybe this is the first one (tak tahu la kan) yang ada cerita tentang medical SELAIN daripada doktor. I mean as the main stuff.
2. The actors and actress, maybe?? Hahaha. Yang ini confirm la! The first actor yang I recognized is Jang Dong Yoon (well, aku tak tahu nama dia pun just cam muka je at first haha). This is because he was in drama School 2017 as the second lead actor. Joon Hyuk, erm boleh laaa haha. Pelakon yang lain yang aku kenal is Defconn. Haa korang yang kenal and minat Defconn tu boleh la try tengok drama ni okay?!
3. Other than only medical, ada juga terselit romance and comedy. Of course I like these kind of genre! Kalau yang kelakar tu, boleh tahan juga la. Romance tu ada juga cuma tak obvious sangat kot. Haha entah la. Just maybe romance or love punya part tu tak memberat sangat I mean. Oh and bab poetry tu, sometimes I was always skipped that part. Hahaha malas nak dengar poem semua tu. Kekadang jee.
4. Maybe dari segi storyline? I think, the storyline and idea are quite good, which is not many publisher/director yang mengetengahkan skop pekerjaan medical yang lain, which is in this story is the physical therapist. It also shows another medical scope which is radiologist (but it is not much though).
5. Related to real life issues. Erm, well not so much but if you watch this drama, you will see there are a little bit issues that commonly happen in medical industry. For example... Hmm korang fikir and carilah sendiri haha. Aku pun tak tahu nak cakap macam mana.
🎬🎬🎬
Anyway, I think that's enough kot. As for me, I really love this kind of story as it involved the medical stuffs. Well, maybe because me, myself is involved in medical industry. Erm, yeah.

Jangan lupa tengok these actor and actress berlakon dalam drama ni tau!
Oh, I know different people have different taste on variety of dramas. So, this is one yang saya suka dan recommend untuk you alls. Kalau suka cerita ala-ala medic gitu boleh la tengok ye!
Yang belajar or bekerja as physical therapist pun boleh la tengok drama ni sebab it is close related with you guys.
Boleh tengok drama A Poem A Day ni dekat DramaCool (I always watch at this site hehe).

Have a nice day! 😎

Drama MANDATORI [Astro First]

Assalamualaikum and hi gais! Okay, so today aku amik cuti sekejap sebelum last paper aku Jumaat ni. Hahaha bukan cuti la, just ambil masa aku sikit untuk update kat blog aku ni.
Jadi, apa cerita kali ni? Haa, entri kali ni aku nak share tentang sebuah drama adaptasi daripada sebuah novel. Tapi! Bukan novel cinta okay! Hah ni adaptasi novel MANDATORI karya Ramlee Awang Murshid. Kalau yang pernah baca or minat gila dengan novel-novel Ramlee Awang Murshid ni, confirm korang tahu genre cerita dia macam mana kan? hehe. Sebab aku dah tengok sikit so nak share and ajak korang untuk tengok jugak la!
Drama MANDATORI ni bergenre crime thriller yang mempunyai 6 episod dan mula disiarkan pada 14 Disember 2017 (walaupun dah few weeks keluar, erm its okay nak ajak jugak haha.) Drama ni telah disiarkan di Astro First dengan pembelian hanya RM19.10 untuk SEMUA EPISOD!
Mesti nak tahu pelakon siapa kan? Antara pelakon yang membintangi drama ni adalah Aeril Zafrel, Alvin Wong, Siti Saleha, Iedil Putra, Vanidah Imran, dan ramai lagi pelakon-pelakon hebat! 

Sinopsis:

Mandatori mengisahkan tentang seorang profiler jenayah, Inspektor Norman (Aeril Zafrel) yang menyiasat kes pembunuhan bersiri yang dilihat berkait rapat antara satu sama lain. Ia membuka kembali kes-kes jenayah yang berlaku beberapa tahun lalu. Lebih merumitkan apabila setiap siasatan yang dijalankan Norman akan membawanya kepada satu lagi pembunuhan baru.

Norman semakin keliru kerana seorang demi seorang yang dia kenal mati dibunuh dengan kejam dan pembunuh itu akan meninggalkan petunjuk sama iaitu patung mainan Inspektor Carlos dan kertas tulisan Case Closed yang mana ada ketikanya dijumpai dalam bahagian badan si mati.

Dalam kesibukan Norman menjalankan penyiasatan dengan rakan setugasnya, Detektif Chief Inspektor Kelvin Chan (lakonan Alvin Wong), beliau berkenalan dengan Julia Johari (lakonan Siti Saleha) yang merupakan anak kepada salah seorang ahli perniagaan berjaya dan pemilik Johari Corp, Tuan Johari (lakonan Datuk Ahmad Tarmimi Siregar) dan keluarga ini merupakan suspek utama kepada beberapa jenayah yang berlaku.

My Comment:
In my opinion, this drama was a killer! Haha. In other words, cerita ni memang best! Tak rugi korang tengok! And honestly, aku baru tengok episod 1 je hahaha itupun sebab free kat VOD. Walaupun baru episod 1, tapi awal cerita dia pun dah best kot.. Nak nak pula aku ni memang jenis yang suka cerita-cerita macam ni. Macam ala ala CSI tu kan. Kat Malaysia aku rasa this is the first one yang buat cerita macam ni. Cerita yang bukan senang nak buat, kena ada kajian mendalam dan agak rumit, cabaran yang pelbagai, masa, and also relating to real life. Ini baru REAL WEH! 👍👍 
Kalau tak asyik tengok yang dari negara luar je, macam Korea la yang aku selalu tengok hehe. Macam cerita Black, Doctors, banyak lagi la aku tak ingat huhu. Sebab most of these dramas they relate it to real life macam term-term penyakit, symptoms, laws, forensic works, macam-macam la. Hopefully lepas ni makin banyak la cerita bergenre macam ni :)
Oh and by the way, honestly aku tak pernah tahu pun wujud term 'profiler jenayah' ni sebenarnya. I never heard actually and I thought it refers to the criminal itself 😂 And now I know (because my mom told me lol. She also joined me when I watched this first episode and she gave me a GREEN LIGHT TO BUY THE DRAMA THOUGH HAHA. I'm blessed). Plus, I like how Aeril brought his character into 'live'. He's such a very good actor! Good job Aeril! 👍 Keep it up for the next Mandatori 2, maybe? haha.
So, korang pun yang belum tengok PATUT TENGOK DRAMA MANDATORI ni! Even aku pun nak sambung tengok next episod yang aku tak sempat tengok sebab TENGAH FINAL! 😭 Luckily tinggal satu paper je lagi and I'm going home!
Jangan lupa okay tengok cerita MANDATORI ni! 😉
Good job MANDATORI Team! 👍
One of the scene in Mandatori.

p/s: I'm looking forward for next Mandatori (hehehe) and also drama adaptation from Raudhah novel (karya Ramlee Awang Murshid jugak). I don't know but I like the story of this novel.
