I have not had this for a long time, pure enjoyment of activities that you want to do. Haha… Well, let’s talk about Friday night first. On Friday night, I rushed home to watch “Shou Zu” or “Kinship” on TCS Channel 8, only to discover that the last episode is super super dumb!! My family & I ate our dinner with eyes fixated on the TV screen for the entire hour. Yet now I have to watch the sequel to know more! Gosh, we have to wait for it to be filmed. By that time, I may have lost interest. Argh.
Anyway, after that I felt bored by the let-down of “Kinship”, so I decided to continue watching this Taiwanese teen romantic comedy drama series that I have been following recently. It’s called “It started with a kiss” or “E1 Zhuo4 Ju4 Zhi1 Wen3” where the lead male is Joe Cheung (acts as Jiang Zhi Shu) and the female lead is Ariel Lin (Yuan Xiang Qin).
Actually both lead artistes are unknowns to me BUT the guy is so so so so so handsome and cool. He’s not the cute boyish kind but more of the cool brooding kind. And he’s tall at 1.88m!! And he has a very nice smile, when he does smiles in the show (very rare). You can see his small teeth and I mean really small. Gosh, he is just so very cute lor!! *swoons*
Ok, a synopsis of this show. Zhi Shu (ZS) is a genius with IO of 200 and everything is easy to him, including cooking. He can just read a recipe book and cook up nice dishes. What a genius!! However, he is reticent and difficult to get along with as he looks down on people who are not as smart as him. And he dislikes his mother to arrange his life for him though his mother means well. Xiang Qin (XQ) is the daughter of his father’s good friend Cai and they come to stay at ZS’ house because an earthquake destroyed their home. XQ likes ZS but ZS finds her irritating and dumb at first. ZS always criticize and ignores XQ even though XQ does a lot of things (many dumb, hilarious ones, in fact) to get his attention or to show him her love. So, for the past few days, I had been watching the series on YouTube (first time I really used YouTube as well) and was just living in a fantasy world of “Jiang Zhi Shu & Yuan Xiang Qin”.
I laughed at XQ’s antics as she is so dumb, she cannot cook, and she cannot photocopy a document (note: she doesn’t know how to use it!) but she loves ZS very much. XQ stays at ZS for at least 5 years, from high school till university; all along she never stops showing him concern. Slowly but surely, she melts ZS’ heart and actually ZS started liking her in their last year of high school where he kissed her but made an ugly face at her after that. Yet ZS is always cold to her and scolds her but willingly helps her out when she is in trouble, eg. She sprained her ankle while playing tennis and he piggy-backs her home.
Whenever ZS is with XQ, they always get into all kinds of weird situations and though initially ZS hated it, he eventually found it amusing and got used to it. ZS also learnt to find his identity through XS as he dared to try new things and experiences. It was really heartwarming to see XQ being there for him all the time and following him wholeheartedly. Another funny character is ZS’ younger brother or Yu Shu. Yu Shu is like a quiet observer at the side and it is comical to see his expressions because somehow he feels that his brother likes XQ but cannot comprehend his brother’s fierce behaviour towards XQ. Or somehow his brother seems to lose his temper or have bad moods when ZS knew that XQ was going out on dates with other guys or moving out of their house.
My favourite episode!!
ZS finally realizes that he loves XQ and cannot do without her. Both ZS & XQ are on the verge of getting married to someone they don’t love and are feeling very miserable about it. When ZS learns that someone is going to propose to XQ, he goes blank and searches for her frantically to prevent her from agreeing. He finally finds her standing at the restaurant where he worked previously, in the rain. Initially, he refuses to put down his pride and tell her he loves her but after arguing, he finally reveals his true feelings. When they reach home, ZS tells his family he wants to marry her and everyone is extremely elated. Oh, the next best scene is the one where he sleeps on her bed and they hug each other to sleep while ZS’ mum films them secretly.
I miss this show… Think I will watch it again and also I am waiting eagerly for the sequel to be out in Taiwan in Sep 2007. Anticipation!
