I love Korean dramas..hehe. I've just finished watching 30 episodes of Baker King, Kim Tak Goo. I know, this story was aired long time ago, and I just watched it now....you know, I am a busy woman..hihi.

Little introduction first :

The series also received presidential honors in the 2010 Republic of Korea Content Award ceremony for its contribution in the overseas popularity of Korean pop culture. The English version was renamed Bread, Love and Dreams and was broadcast on KBS World.

Synopsis
Kim Tak Goo is the eldest son of Goo Il Jong, the chairman of Geosung Foods Enterprise ( a legend in baking industry), and Kim Mi Sun, his mistress. Although he is an extremely talented baker and is destined to succeed his father as president, Goo Il Jong's family plotted to rob him of his inheritance because he is the son of Il Jong's mistress. Tak Goo's determination to become number one in baking industry drives him to build his career from scratch despite many hard trials he faces.











It is an emotional roller coaster ride of a series that tells a story of love, anger, revenge, hope and dreams in the best way possible. It is definitely different from your typical soap opera. It is full of twists and turns yet maintains its interesting story. What I love about the show is that it is full of moral values that would inspire viewers in many ways. Never quit on your dreams and achieve it the right way. The Baker King truly moves my heart and I have been eagerly watching each coming episodes to see what happens next : )
