Talk about going to sleep and waking up to a plane crashing into your living room. The biggest news in South Korea the least three weeks has been the insane political scandal around President Park Geun Hye maybe being a puppet controlled by her cult leader confidante Choi Soon Shil. Citizens are rightfully incensed and scores of huge demonstrations have been ongoing in Korea demanding President Park resign. This week there’s finally some levity to the seriousness of the scandal when news broke that President Park used the alias Gil Ra Im when going to the hospital run by Choi Soon Shil. It’s such a unique name that even years later now anyone who watched Secret Garden remembers it immediately, and to know President Park was a fan is randomly amusing. Poor Ha Ji Won finds her name now linked to the latest news about President Park so that’s no fun but at least it’s a good flashback reminder to how insanely popular that drama was back in the innocent halcyon days of 2010.
Wow, news of S. Korea’s president just gets worse.
I was laughing so hard when I read the news. It’s amusing and extremely silly at the same time. Mostly tho, it’s so embarrassing for PGH. What was she thinking??
President is a secret Secret Garden fan! ??No wonder she has been promoting kstars like no other president. ?
Those who dragged HJW in this mess of a scandal are delusional. She has left Gil Ra Im long time ago. Can’t people just seperate reality with fiction? I miss HJW. Come back and do a drama soon. Please let it be with my bias. Please make it happen, dear dramalords.
Who was the costar? That is the key. (Lol)
