Drama, drama, drama
That's all that seems to fill the CDrama that I'm currently watching. I'm only through episode four of Tokyo Juliet, and already I've lost count of how many times the two main characters have broken up and got back together and yelled at each other and then made up. And yet, as ridiculous as the drama and parts of the story line are, I can't seem to stop watching it.

Perhaps it's the music. The opening song is amazing and it's been playing over and over in my head all day. I seriously want to buy the soundtrack. The other music in the series is great too. There are a few Fahrenheit songs in there, so of course I'm on board with that.

Perhaps it's the main character, Sui. She is a hopelessly awkward first year design student who is strangely attractive and amazingly gifted. She wants to be a fashion designer, and yet most of her fellow classmates spurn her because of her awkward body shape and her declaration to beat Chi something (Evil Designer, as I like to call him), who stole her precious daisy design that she created for her model mother.

Or it could be the plot, when it's not bogged down by Murphey's Law. (I assure you, everything that could possibly go wrong does, and then gets worse.) There are plenty of twists and turns and secrets and evil plotting and love triangles to keep me interested. It's definitly a series that will keep you guessing from episode to episode. And most of the seriousness is broken up by cute, romantic moments between Liang and Sui or silly moments.

More than anything, it's probably Liang himself...the almighty god of fashion. He's talented, he's hot and he's completely devoted to protecting Sui. What more could you want in a male protagonist? It's interesting to me to watch Wu Zun (Liang) play a completely different character than the one he plays in Hana Kimi.

So, I'll keep on watching, eagerly awaiting the next diaster that will happen and praying that Liang and Sui don't break up for good. (Which I'm positive they won't.) And of course, I must watch it all to find out if they finally overcome Evil designer who stole Sui's design when she was 5 years old and built his entire design empire upon it...who also happens to be Liang's father...and who also happens to steal Sui's mother as well as Sui's design...oh the drama!
