The first Korean drama I watched was 星星在我心. Then I watched 爱上女主播 and many others during the past few years. However ,it's only after watching 饼干老师星星糖 and 浪漫满屋 recently that I got hooked on Korean series and their OSTs.

The next series that I want to watch are:

结婚

这该死的爱

Has anyone here watched 这该死的爱 ? How was it?

Japan finally has a First Lady after being without one during Koizumi's tenure. The wife of new prime minister Shinzo Abe, Akie, is an enthusiastic fan of Korean soap operas. Pretty good looking First Lady.

When Shinzo Abe, who was elected president of Japan’s ruling Liberal Democratic Party on Wednesday, becomes prime minister in the next session of the Diet on Sept. 26, Japan will have a first lady for the first time in five years and five months. After outgoing Prime Minister Junichiro Koizumi’s wife left him in 1982, he never remarried. The long spell without a first lady has perhaps increased the attention now being paid to 44-year-old Akie Abe.

Abe is known to be an avid Korean soap opera fan, being especially fond of actor Park Yong-ha. In diplomatic circles, some already speculate that having an advocate close to the leader can only boost the esteem in which Korea is held in Tokyo and thus warm icy Korea-Japan relations. That is not only due to her strong predilection for the pop culture flowing off the peninsula. Like Hillary Clinton, she is a stalwart who never lets her husband get too far ahead of her.

Akie Abe is known to be an avid Korean Wave fan, and in keeping with her stature is a heroine with a big heart. But unlike her husband, who never lets alcohol cross his lips, Akie Abe is fond of a drop and is known for throwing parties and attending gatherings, building the human network for her husband.

Akie Abe is the oldest daughter of Akio Matsuzaki, the former president of Japan‘s leading confectioner Morinaga & Co, and a graduate of the University of the Sacred Heart, Tokyo. She worked for a time at the country’s no. 1 advertising firm Dentsu and in 1987 married Shinzo Abe. Around the same time, Abe’s elder brother Hironobu Abe married a daughter of the president of Ushio Denki, a major Japanese firm, giving rise to talk that the marriage was politically motivated. In the 1990s, Akie Abe worked as a FM Radio DJ in her husband's hometown of Shimonoseki.

With this background, her reach extends into the cultural world. For her husband's birthday, she threw a feast and invited figures from the art world and celebrities and introduced them to her husband. She has taken an interest in Shimonoseki local government and attended gatherings for families of people kidnapped by North Korea.

She reportedly enjoyed the drama "Winter Sonata" that kicked off the Korean Wave, and her husband has said many times in public and private that his wife is a big fan of its stars Bae Yong-joon and Park Yong-ha. When Bae was in Tokyo, she reportedly asked her husband to book into the same hotel where the winsome Korean actor was staying so that she might be able to see Bae in person. In September 2004, when the couple visited Korea, they met Park Yong-ha and received a signed album as a gift. Japan’s future first lady is taking Korean classes once a week and reportedly make simple conversation.

...安倍晉三的老婆昭惠夫人,據說是哈韓族,不僅可用韓語自我介紹,韓劇劇情也琅琅上口。一些小報說,過去小泉因為沒有老婆,所以缺少有關首相家庭生活的八卦,安倍的老婆出任首相夫人後可以填補這些空檔。

44歲的安倍昭惠,以前在下關市當過廣播電台的主持人,擁有自己的時段,是一位活躍於廣播界的名人。過去,安倍忙於東京的政界活動,而疏於山口縣選區的選民服務時,昭惠就扮演了賢內助的角色,代安倍在選區內打點事務,讓安倍沒有後顧之憂。

據說這位準首相夫人,不但自己找了韓語家庭教師勤學韓語,對於在日本流行的韓劇也都耳熟能詳,琅琅上口。據說她最迷裴勇俊、朴龍河,因為相當的庶民化,所以很能跟一些婦女打成一片。

最近一次她隨安倍晉三訪問南韓,昭惠還發揮了她韓語的功力,用韓語做自我介紹,把韓國人都嚇了一跳,對這位未來的首相夫人刮目相看.
