I have watched this, too, and I liked it! Super bagay talaga kay Song Joong-ki ang medyo “bad boy” image.

Very interesting. I’ll watch this with my friends. It’s a good recommendation. I’ve been enjoying Korean movies and dramas since I started watching last year.

I’ve heard good reviews for Space Sweepers. Someone in my newsfeed even said “why can’t we make shows like Space Sweepers??” I’ve seen this on Netflix but haven’t tried watching it yet.

To be honest, akala ko nung una, ang boring. Sabi ko pa sa boyfriend ko, wag na yan yung panuorin, buti nakinig ako sa kanya. Super ganda pala!!! HAHA ang astig ng movie na to!
