1996年日剧 一吻定情 经典回顾:第四集


第四集:没有感觉的吻

高中快毕业的学生必需写下自己的志愿,和未来要报考的大学。丽子和琴子决定以直树的志愿为自己的目标,然而直树也非常迷惘不知未来要做什么。第一次感到彷徨无助的直树试着逃避问题,最后导致脾气不好,把情绪发泄在别人身上。面对周围对未来有梦想的人,直树苦恼为何自己对任何事情都没有热情呢?另一方面,丽子设计圈套故意强吻直树使琴子感到很心痛。


第四集感想:

丽子真是阴险狡猾,然而这也凸显了她缺乏安全感和自信心。她是为了不要输给琴子才对直树死缠烂打的,说到底也是全为了自己而企图拥有直树。琴子反而不求回报的付出,爱直树比爱自己多。

丽子以为利用卑鄙手段就能得到直树,可惜琴子傻傻的掉进陷阱里。当初我看到丽子强吻直树而他没有拒绝丽子时感到非常愤怒!心里想为什么不推开她呢?想了想或许EQ低的直树没有拒绝丽子是因为欠他人情债并非爱她。直树一方面是被威胁,另一方面是懒得拒绝。

幸好后面直树主动亲吻琴子,我发现相比之下差别真大。直树和丽子接吻完全没有感情,反而和琴子的吻就十分投入。直树主动吻琴子感觉好自然喔,他无法接受琴子说不爱他了。直树之后也担心这个吻会改变原本的生活。他心里越是抗拒琴子,想把她推得远远的,就感到越难受。他这时察觉自己的改变,却不愿承认自己的真心。


谁说天才没有烦恼?直树正心烦未来要选择做什么也处于摸索自己内心感受的阶段。他时而露出可爱的表情,时而迷惘,面对情敌眼神者带点敌意。这时的入江已经变成普通人了,他感受到普通人面对的问题却企图掩饰自己。


阿金的表情好可爱哦!两种极端的表情实在是太搞笑了啦。哈哈哈。


从以上的镜头可以看出直树越来越在意琴子了。尽管自己装着不在乎,眼神和行动却透露了自己内心的感受。他心疼琴子被丽子设计所以主动找丽子劝他停止伤害琴子,只是丽子太强势了。我想直树从来对任何事都抱着置身事外的态度,想要直树关心别人除非是自己真心在乎的人。值得一提的是直树看琴子的眼神和说话的语气也开始变得更温柔了。


直树的表情可丰富了,可是你必需仔细观察才会发现。毕竟琴子和阿金的表情和行动都特别夸大,所以直树更加显得冷漠。事实上,直树也有隐藏着一颗温软细腻的心。







1996年日剧 一吻定情 经典回顾:第三集


第三集:最后的一场比赛

琴子害直树撞伤手臂而无法参加篮球比赛,为此感到很内疚。丽子嫉妒琴子也开始计划陷害她。她在布告栏上公然指责琴子偷直树家里的钱,冤枉她是小偷。丽子甚至偷走直树的篮球并且弄坏它,使琴子背上一切责任。然而,这一切逃不过直树的眼睛。有一天,直树无奈和琴子单独过夜,到底会发生什么爆笑又有趣的事呢?


第三集感想:

仔细一看,其实佐藤篮子长得蛮漂亮的。如果服装,发型更时尚可爱或许会更加凸显她的美丽。说实在的所有饰演主角的演员都长得不错啊。佐藤篮子为了角色牺牲形像。她扮丑,言行举止夸张夸大就是为了带给观众欢乐。她试着演绎靠近漫画中的琴子。无论成功与否都算是花了心系去诠释角色。想要把96版本和其他的版本比较也显得不公平。毕竟这部偶像剧是先锋,是经典,在当时的年代也十分受欢迎。


我很喜欢柏原崇那清澈的眼神,他的言行举止都很细腻,含蓄。入江直树都是以眼神和小动作透露自己的真实感受。他看着丽子的表情就已表示他不认同丽子的幼稚行为。酷酷的直树无需说话,尖锐的眼神已经看破了丽子的诡计。


直树面对琴子就是不一样,就表情来说就比较多变。他无时无刻都在注视着琴子,喜怒哀乐都逐渐展现出来了。特别是在校园远处临视琴子的直树,眼神流露着关怀。不知不觉中,这时的直树已经开始习惯和接受琴子的存在了。丽子和直树妈妈一定都察觉到直树的改变了,只是两个人的目标不相同。


从一开始饰演配角的两个人就注定无法和主角在一起了。我怀疑配角在剧里到底为什么存在呢?阿金对直树和琴子的关系从来就不造成威胁。丽子的阴险狡猾原本就被直树看见了,直树会喜欢他就不是IQ200的天才少年了。面对两种不同类型的女生,直树会选择谁呢?另外,特别想说上面的照片感觉很相配。


直树和欲树很相似,就连表情动作都好像哦!可爱又聪明的两兄弟中,欲树显得比较幼稚骄纵。或许因为年纪小所以经常用言语和行为伤害琴子,甚至对她不礼貌。令人心疼的是琴子依然逆来顺受,包容一切。


直树的妈妈好可爱喔!她很了解自己的儿子,也全力支持琴子和直树这段感情。或许因为太过积极支持、使得直树感到压力,甚至排斥被别人摆布自己的人生。原本闷骚的直树就无法轻易接受生活上的改变。


琴子的爸爸也好可爱阿!他是琴子的精神支柱,也是个很好的爸爸。一直觉得他们父女的感情很好,尤其在诉说心事的时候特别感动。













1996年日剧 一吻定情 经典回顾:第二集


第二集:爱于泪的最后跑者

琴子为了激发直树的斗志,便和对方打赌谁赢得了学校田径赛就答应对方的条件。谁知道入江直树希望琴子般出自己的家。为了这场赌注,琴子可花上很多心系去练习跑步。比赛的前一天,琴子为了救欲树脚踝扭伤了。虽然直树按照约定赢得比赛,却没有逼琴子离开家里。他还背着受伤的琴子回家,手臂还意外撞伤了。不知情的琴子被丽子打巴掌,老师也责怪琴子害直树无法参加篮球比赛。


第二集感想:

有些恶作剧的粉丝说如果要知道直树的感受和思想,必需要观察他的眼神。他在操场偷瞄琴子练习跑步,心里其实欣赏琴子的意志力,但表面上硬要假装不在乎。善于伪装的直树不轻易把心打开。然而只有在面对琴子时,直树才展现出自己原本的样子,暂时摆脱IQ200的天才少年,也不只是个头脑好的机器人。

琴子虽然傻但是她的人生哲学和对生命的热忱影响了入江直树。至少他有认真听琴子说话。他经常偷偷的观察琴子的一举一动。入江妈妈应该也察觉到吧!虽然入江嘴里经常抱怨琴子,甚至以尖酸刻薄的态度对待她,却是无恶意的。如果直树真心希望琴子离开自己的家,他就不会特地在沙发上等待琴子。如果直树真的狠心就不会不顾一切救琴子,还背着她回家了。

琴子也很搞笑,她的动作很粗鲁就像小男生。她那夸张的表情,起初真的很不习惯她的表演方式。我比较喜欢琴子安静的时侯,或是责备直树的时候那副认真的模样。金之助在剧里是个极度可怜的角色因为他很爱琴子,但是琴子眼里只有直树。


丽子总是自以为是直树的正牌女朋友,然而直树对她则是爱理不理的。他并没有正面的拒绝丽子,对她也算客气了,或许两人间有不可告人的秘密?但是照我看,丽子跟其他人一样并没有什么特别。每当丽子跟直树说话,直树只是为了敷衍对方,点点头而已。但是入江并没有把丽子的话放在心上,反而选择遵守和琴子的约定。


F班和A班的气氛有好大的分别啊!相比之下F班比较有人情味,即使失败了还是安慰对方。A班感觉高傲冷漠,自私自利。









1996年日剧 一吻定情 经典回顾:第一集



第一集:改变命运之吻

相原琴子在学校的走廊奔跑,无意中碰撞迎面而来的入江直树。突如其来的碰撞造成两人的第一次接吻。琴子从那次邂逅起便开始暗恋直树。终于,琴子鼓起勇气向直树告白却惨遭拒绝。倒霉的琴子家中失火,幸好父亲的好友伸出援手邀请两父女住进她家。只是命运和琴子开了一个大玩笑,因为搬进的就是入江直树的家。有一天,琴子被几个学校流氓调戏,直树却说那些人跟她很相配。期末考即将来临,被激怒的琴子誓言要考进百名板、和直树的名字名列在一起。


第一集的感想:

世纪末日本美男子柏原崇饰演的入江直树是最佳经典,如同情书里的藤井树。颜就不用说了,大家看了就知道。有人说柏原崇在剧中时常憋嘴就象一个痞子,手还一直擦口袋。哈哈。我反而觉得柏原崇扮演得不错,高傲冷漠的感觉都到位。佐藤蓝子感觉很花痴,看上去就是个傻傻又可爱的孩子。当年看这部偶像剧的时候我的年纪轻所以对佐藤蓝子抱着嫉妒心,并且十分羡慕女主。如今回头看这部日剧反而觉得更好,不知是否因为自己成熟了,少了偏见就更能够欣赏剧情了。

我觉得佐藤蓝子选择以搞笑的方式饰演琴子这个角色是对的。毕竟她身材高挑,外表也不象一个需要别人照顾和保护的女孩。佐藤蓝子比较适合勇敢,耿直,坦率的性格。和其他饰演相原琴子的演员相比,佐藤蓝子不如别人温柔,可爱,小鸟依人。反而,佐藤蓝子以独特的个性展现个人风格。

这一集直树认真的替琴子补习,而琴子也努力的学习。我好喜欢直树在学校的走廊上替琴子加油打气的样子,虽然只是简单的说了一句加油,感觉却很好。原本对任何事都抱着无所谓态度的直树却稀奇的去看百名板。虽然摆出一副不削的外表,内心却很在意琴子有没有上榜。一方面是肯定自己的努力没有白费,另外一方面也希望看见奇迹的诞生。想必琴子这些日子的努力直树都看在眼里,并且打从心里真心的替琴子加油打气。

对于入江直树,他从来不需要花费太多心系去念书就有好成绩了。相反的,琴子必需花上许多精力来达成目标。比如说直树能做到世界上百分之90的事,琴子却只能做到百分之10的事,但是她能做得比谁都要好。身边总是围绕着像自己一样聪明的直树对琴子开始感到好奇,甚至开始展现出调皮的一面。从小小的细节中可以看出直树从冷漠,抱怨,惊奇,一直到开始作弄琴子而感到有趣。他开始对琴子刮目相看,觉得琴子傻是傻,但是还蛮有毅力的。琴子也开始成功的第一步了。

直树的妈妈便是拉红线的人。若她没有把直树扮女生的儿时照片拿出来,琴子也无法利用照片“威胁”直树替她补习了。我认为琴子并没有恶意,只是没办法短时间内考进百名板而感到焦急。琴子始终是个单纯的女孩,事后无论如何都会把照片归还原主。

Fated To Love You Episode 2


While Lee Gun was planning the grand proposal, Se Ra received a call from her New York performing arts school. She was invited to participate in a play as the lead dancer. She have to make a decision to leave Lee Gun or stay in Korea for him. 


Jang Hyuk went topless again! He was having a massage and he drank the spiked drinks. We can anticipate what will happen next. 


These enemies were actually people who worked in the factory that Lee Gun is going to buy over. The factory president and the employee will be laid off soon, therefore they decided to set up a trap for Lee Gun to threaten him to back off from this project. 


Lee Gun went back to his hotel room and was striped naked by the enemies. On the other hand, Mi-young mistook the door number and went into Lee Gun room. Both of them were in a drowsy state of mind after they drank the spiked water. 


Lee Gun grandmother hope that Lee Gun will get married soon. Unknown to her, Lee Gun had went one step further when he had an one night stand with Mi-young. 


Both of them cuddling with each other but did not realize that they were sleeping with the wrong partner. 


Shocked to realised what had happened, they rolled out of the bed dumbfolded! The factory men barge into the room armed with a camera. One of them is Mi-Young brother-in-law, therefore Lee Gun turned hostile and accused Mi-Young as a con artist. 


The mysterious man is Daniel. He came back from America to look for his long lost sister at the orphanage. 


The security chased after the duo while investigation was carried out. The camera dropped into the water and the duo ran away as fast as possible. The investigation showed that room 2009 became 2006 and that was a mistake. Lee Gun begin to accept that they were both victims in this situation.


While all the bad things happened, the lawyer jerk was having a great time with another bitchy woman in her room. They humiliated Mi-Young out front which hurts her deeply. Lee Gun who intended to return Mi-Young shoes witnessed what happened. He stood up for Mi-Young and ushered her away. 


Time for revenge! Lee Gun wanted Mi-Young to have more confidence. Therefore, he arranged for a makeover for Mi-Young. The result of the transformation surprised Lee Gun as he was amazed by her beauty too.


Look at that lawyer jerk expression as he stared at Mi-young. It is too late for regret jerk! Besides Queen Mi-Young have a handsome King. 


They gambled on the table with a huge amount of chips. Initially, the lawyer jerk and the bitchy lady won. However, their luck soon ran out. During the final round, they lost to Mi-Young and Lee Gun. Devastated, the lawyer jerk asked for another match but was flatly rejected. 


Lee Gun offered to return his money if he kneel down on his knees to Mi-Young. Look at that desperate face! Finally, Mi-Young was convinced that he is a bad person. Instead of stepping on his dignity, Mi-Young choose to leave. 


Lee Gun was surprised that Mi-Young let go of the opportunity to take revenge. Mi-Young brushed it off as her misjudgment of that lawyer jerk character. They acknowledge that they were really in the same shoes as both of them were  deeply hurted by their partner. They finally introduced their name formally. Mi-Young also plead for Lee Gun not to pursue the matter with the factory staffs as they meant no harm.

Lee Gun advised Mi-Young not to be too good and to have more self confidence. He gave her the lucky chip as a keepsake and Mi-Young gave him a cherry candy in return. At first, Lee Gun was hesistant to receive the cherry candy as he thought that the dog had licked it. Mi-Young explained that she had brought another cherry candy and she wished him good luck in love.

They bid farewell believing that they will never meet each other again. Looking at their expressions, I doubt this will be the last time they will see of each other. 

My thoughts:


We know that Jang Hyuk have a well toned body and he is often required to flash it onscreen. I like the way he helps Mi-Young take revenge on that jerk. He reassured Mi-Young that she is a Queen and not just somebody that is common. I bet there is nobody that ever said that to Mi-Young and I could see how surprised Mi-Young is judging from her expressions. 

Jang Nara still look pretty when she dresses up. She acts well in this role as a harmless and gullible lady. On the other hand, the lawyer jerk deserved all the punishments! I am glad that Lee Gun helped Mi-Young to take revenge and make him look so pathetic. The men from the factory were actually harmless and I am sure they must be desperate to think of this trap. All these "mistakes" were actually linked by - Fate.

Fated to love you Episode 1


What an awesome opening for this drama series! Ladies, get ready to be charm by this sexy man. It is time to enjoy watching the eye candies with an ice cream to cool down the heat.


The story begin with a shampoo commercial that was shot in an enchanting forest. A beautiful lady appeared and dipped her hair into the water. Suddenly, she shouted cut and demanded for a stand in for this scene. The reason is that she does not like the smell of this shampoo. She reminded me of Chae Song Yi from the hit drama - You Who Came From The Star. It was hilarious when she called out Do manager in a familar tone. Don't you think it looks familar too? 



Her manager reminded her that she had signed a contract which stated that she have do this commercial personally. Out of a sudden, a man broke into the scene and acted out the commercial in his own style. Who else but the sexy and manly Jang Hyuk? Everyone was caught by surprised and wondered who he is. 


He is Lee Gun, the president of Jung In chemical and a Chabeol heir of his family business. He was informed of a secret family meeting. It was to discuss Lee Gun marriage since the elderly deemed Lee Gun as immatured to run a company as long as he is not married. We all know that they have a hidden agenda in this matter. His grandmother tried to defend her grandson but Lee Gun surprised everyone when he signed the contract and agrees to marry within 100 days. 



This is Lee Gun ballerina girlfriend Se Ra. Apparently, she is going to return to Korea soon and Lee Gun is going to surprise her with a wedding proposal. 


Kim Mi-Young is a typical "post it" girl working in a company. She always run errands for her colleagues but was never appreciated. Please take out the grandmother glasses, it look so old on you Jang Nara! 



Sadly, everybody took her for granted and make use of her whenever they needed her. It was irritating that she never reject anybody request. Girl, you have learn how to say,"No!" Thankfully she have a friend working in the same company as her. 


Here comes the mysterious man that boarded the same flight as Sara. He was flirting with an air stewardess? He did a sketch of a lady on the paper as he explained about his desire to look for his long lost sister. Se Ra who happened to sit beside him scoffed at his story. 



Lee Gun was looking for a perfect ring for his perfect proposal. On the other hand, Mi-Young was looking for cherry lollipop at a Princess candy shop. Yes, no doubt she was running errand for her superior again! Mi-Young saw a little boy dangerously walking towards the escalator and she wanted to save him. In a twist of fate, she bumped onto Lee Gun who just stepped out of the store with the ring in his hand.


Hilariously, the ring flew up and rolled down the escalator. The boy was picked up by his mother but the ring went missing. They chased after the ring which ended up in a dog cage. 



There was a tense atmosphere as the both of them tried to retrieved the ring discreetly in order not to alarm the scary dog. A sudden jerk awakened the sleeping dog and it dashed out of the cage and gave chase to the both of them. Run for your life dude! It was funny how Lee Gun tried to direct the dog towards Mi-Young. He is really scared of dogs!!! 


They ran towards a dead end and the dog was drawing near. Despite his fear of dogs, Lee Gun gathered up his courage to chase the dog away. It turned out that the dog sniffed a cherry candy in Mi-Young pocket. The owner came and apologized to the both of them as the dog is obsessive over cherry. What happen to the ring? Not to worry, Mi-Young had placed the ring in her finger amidst the chaos. Despite securing the ring, Lee Gun was unhappy that Mi-Young had placed it in her finger. 


It was her company luck draw, Mi-Young won a ticket to Macau resort! The question is who is going to accompany her? She was pondering who to ask since her mother and two elder sister were busy with their restuarant. 



Lee Gun and his assistant were discussing about the wedding proposal plan which happens to be at Macau resorts. Hahaha.. Yes such a coincident right? Unfortunately, the plan was interrupted when Se Ra came back earlier than expected to spin a surprise. I love the panic look on their faces. 


Lee Gun arrived at Macau infamous world class resort. He make secret plan to arrange a surprise wedding proposal to Sara. Unknown to him, he had some enemies following him with motive. 



They spiked a type of drug to increase sex drive in a bottle that they intend to give to Lee Gun. Unfortunately, the bottle accidentally dropped down the bridge and was carried away by the water. 


At the meantime, Mi-Young arrived at the Macau airport with the jerk! Yes, she was gullible enough to bring a jerk to spoil her holiday. He obviously took advantage of Mi-Young and even called her sweetheart. 



After they placed their luggage, the guy left Mi-Young alone and went to the casino. Poor Mi-Young tried to look for him everywhere. That jerk was actually flirting with another woman. 


Mi-Young wondered around by herself and overheard Lee Gun proposal speech. Suddenly Mi-Young coughed and caught the attention of Lee Gun. He thought that somebody was peeping at him. In a state of panic, Mi-Young hid behind a tree and grabbed a bottle of water to drink. That green bottle look familar. Isn't that the spiked water bottle that went down the stream? Later on, Lee Gun was given another spike water bottle. Finally, that is what happens next. Hahaha...




My thoughts: 


Jang Hyuk unique personality added colours to the show. He is hilarious, charming, sexy and manly! It will take some time to get used to this weirdo but I find his character likable and cute. Jang Hyuk seldom act in romance comedy and I do have great expectation for his performance. Now, I can safely say that I do enjoy his protrayal of Lee Gun the arrogant mr perfect. 


Jang Nara on the other hand protrayed the meek and easily bullied Kim Mi-Young. She looks exactly like a weak person that allows people to take advantage of her. I am looking forward to her transformation. 


The storyline adds in the typical Korean style with some fantasy magical scenario and some over the top funny graphics. Anyway, there is already some suspense in the first episode such as the mysterious man on the flight, Lee Gun enemies and Se Ra hidden agenda. What is going to happen next? I am curious to find out more. :)
