Currently Watching

Sandglass - directed by Kim Jong Hak, written by Song Ji Na (1995)

This is a 24 episode Korean TV drama I purchased long ago but never felt compelled to watch. Now that I have properly started I find that I'm enjoying it. Already watched 8 episodes and got into the story of two friends and a woman they met along the path of their lives. Woo Suk comes from a poor family but he is smart and hardworking. Tae Soo also lead a hard life with a communist father whose grave is hidden so well that his mother couldn't find it again to visit. He wanted to be soldier but due to his father he was not accepted to school. He then gave his school money to Woo Suk since he wants to be a lawyer but doesn't have the money.

Tea Soo grew up to be a gangster, Woo Suk is in the university studying Law and enter Hye Rin. She comes from a very rich family but her father is doing shady business and she doesn't believe he loves her. She somehow got involved with anti goverment student associations and left home when her father ordered her to stop. She starts to live with Woo Suk and got friends with Tae Soo who often comes to visit.

I like this fine and looking forward to episode 9 tonight.
