Drama, the Korean kind!
I can't lie, I'm addicted to watching Korean dramas. I don't know what it is about it, the eye candy, the language, the story line..I just start watching one and then I sit down and watch and watch and watch and soon enough, my day is gone and I only have one more episode to watch. I'm not calling this an obsession, I see it more as a mild road block? It's like reading a good book. You start it and you HAVE to finish it. Some books you can put down for a while and pick it back up the next day, while others are the kind where if someone so happens to interrupt you while you're pulled in to that made up world, you just might want to rip off their heads for taking you away from it for even a split second.
I see these Korean dramas in this way. Except the obvious, it's a video, not words written in a book. With these visuals come EXTREMELY attractive eye candy. Mmm the boys (: Those Korean dramas have some of the best looking guys ever. It makes you wonder, WHY ARE THERE NO BOYS LIKE THAT WHO LIVE NEXT TO ME?! Then you see the lead actress and of course, OF COURSE she is extremely pretty. Maybe a little nerdy, but never ever something hard to look at.
It's easy to see that after watching two or three of these dramas, you can see the story line is pretty much the same. Girl likes boy, boy doesn't really like girl(or just pretends), but things happen in the middle and BOOM girl gets boy she likes(or vice versa). OR two boys are fighting over one girl and you wonder who will get her in the end(but sometimes you just know who).
No matter what the story line though, any girl would want to be in that lead actresses shoes. Any girl.
So, when I'm watching these, I get sucked in. My mind leaves the here and now and enters the drama. But, then after I watch the drama, I sit by myself and get sad. I mean, it's kinda unfair. Those dramas just set the bar HIGH for boyfriend dating material.
Let's see what they need:
1. The most important of all!
-Nice hair!
-Super kissble lips
-Tall
-Style
Because without looks, what is there to draw you in? Nothing.
2. Money- On top of those looks, who doesn't like a rich pretty boy? No one.
3. A Super Nice House- That's kind of a duh..lots of money=fancy houses!
4. A Winning Personality...(?)- So, ok not all of the guys have that winning personality, they're kinda like; Oh, I'm gonna play my cool guy card AKA douchebag attitude, but then as time goes on, he's really just a sweet guy!
5. Charm- there is nothing more to say.
So, how high do they make the standards? Off the charts, is fair to say.
And the standards for a girl?
1. Cute, cute, cute
2. Pretty, pretty, pretty
3. Skinny, skinny, skinny
4. That "hard to get" attitude(usually)
5. Again, charm
Well, I guess it's hard to find a guy with all of those traits, I'm definitely not the K-Drama girl standard.. S: But still, good looks and a winning personality is enough for me (: tehe
