			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><span style="font-size: medium; font-family: tahoma,arial,helvetica,sans-serif;"><strong>A lot of people are already creating customized shirts and selling imported stuffs. Selling/distributing the same type of items does not necessarily mean stealing/imitating other people&#8217;s ideas as long as there is no copying of designs. All of you (I&#8217;m referring to the concerned sellers) are selling items based on Korean/Japanese bands or what have you. So, the basis of originality will be the creativity and presentation of the seller. What matters is how competitive a seller is when keeping up with the buyers&#8217; demand. This is the reality of business. Just a point of view from an Ebay seller.</strong></span></p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>First of all, &#8220;<strong>Ako si Kim Sam Soon</strong>&#8221; is a <strong>Philippine remake of the popular Korean drama</strong> &#8220;<strong>My Name is Kim Sam Soon</strong>&#8221; starred by Kim Sun Ah and Hyun Bin. In the Philippines, the series was casted by Regine Velasquez as Sam Soon and by Mark Anthony Fernandez as Sam Shik / Cyrus. The synopsis is the same with the original but with additional Filipino touches to make it different.</p>
<p><img src="http://img365.imageshack.us/img365/9725/sp3227mz8.jpg" alt="" width="415" height="199" /></p>
<p>Let&#8217;s move on to my review, <span id="more-209"></span>haha. Let me tell you what is a &#8220;tv remake&#8221;, it is like creating a <strong>new version</strong> of the old drama series, not a copy but an update - <span style="color: #ff0000;"><strong>improvement</strong></span>. However, the Philippine remake of the drama didn&#8217;t make the series better. It made it <span style="font-size: x-large; color: #ff0000;"><strong>worst</strong></span>!</p>
<p>Worst casting, worst soundtrack&#8230; The costumes are bad&#8230; The dialogues are bad&#8230; The storyline is bad&#8230; Everything is bad&#8230; Honestly, I didn&#8217;t find any good side on that series.</p>
<p>How I love &#8220;My Name is Kim Sam Soon&#8221; is how I hate &#8220;Ako si Kim Sam Soon&#8221;. GMA just wasted their money, time and energy on getting a copyright of this show. Yes, I am proud that the Philippines is making a step on this industry but why would they make something worse if it is great already? I didn&#8217;t watch this series completely, just glimpse of it, &#8217;cause it might kill me.</p>
<p>Don&#8217;t they know this is an <strong>Award-Winning Series</strong>, which received a lot of recognition not only in Korea but in Asia? Their remake is a trash &lt;&#8211; a complete trash. I can&#8217;t laugh on this, this only makes me cry <img src='http://www.ihyagi.com/blog/wp-includes/images/smilies/icon_sad.gif' alt=':(' class='wp-smiley' /> This is an embarassment in the whole entertainment industry in Asia.</p>
<p><span style="color: #ff0000;"><strong>To GMA: Just a tip, don&#8217;t try to do remakes  anymore. Just focus on creating originals.</strong></span></p>
<p>Oh my god~~~ I can&#8217;t express how much I hate this series. I don&#8217;t care what other people say to me, this is just my opinion - better turn of my comment system ^^.</p>
<p>It seems I forgot everything I need to write,, I&#8217;ll update this post later.</p>
<p><strong>To ABS-CBN, don&#8217;t be proud with your My Girl remake, I hate it too though I like your soundtrack - good job on it.</strong></p>

<p>It’s sad to hear when someone so young dies.<strong> </strong></p>
<p>Model turned actor<strong> Lee Eon </strong>has died tragically in a motorcycle accident early this morning on his way from from a wrap-up party for for KBS’s drama <strong>Strongest Chil Woo. </strong>The 27 year old crashed into the guard rail of the elevated roadway in Hanam-dong. He is said to have died on impact.</p>
<p>As a resident of this city, that particular strip of elevated road is banked, curved and not well maintained. In other words, dangerous.</p>
<p>Yongsan police have released a statement that they yet to rule out whether he was riding under the influence of alcohol.</p>
<p>Having his start in modeling, Lee Eon rose to fame in last year’s successful drama, <strong>Coffee Prince</strong>.</p>
<p>Lee Eon’s funeral will start today at Soon-cheon-hyang University Hospital in Hanam-dong.</p>
<p><span id="more-204"></span></p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><img class="aligncenter" src="http://img208.imageshack.us/img208/1488/leeeon080822sl2.jpg" alt="" /></p>
<p>Model and actor,<strong> Lee Eon</strong>’s tragic and sudden death has come as a shock to the entire entertainment community. Family, friends and fans are still reeling in disbelief at the loss. The stars have been coming to pay their last respects to the actor at Soon-chun-hyung University hospital since the early morning. One of the first to pay respects, <strong>Yun Eun-hye</strong> arrived in tears as did fellow <strong>Coffee Prince</strong> co-star <strong>Kim Jae-wook. </strong>His co-star <strong>Eric</strong> received the phone call at soon after the accident at 3 am and headed directly to the hospital along with cast and crew.</p>
<p><span>More details are surfacing regarding the crash. The accident occurred at approximately 1:30 am. Soon after, emergency crews arrived and performed CPR, but the actor was pronounced dead on arrival at the hospital. The police suspect drinking was the cause of the accident, but Lee Eon’s manager maintains that the actor rarely drinks and usually gets driven around rather than taking the motorbike. Police are still trying to piece together what happened.</span></p>
<p><span>Lee Eon trained as a wrestler since elementary school until his 1st year of university. After losing 30kg, he switched careers to become a model. </span><span>The model/actor also moonlighted as DJ Sangmin at Club Mass in Kangnam. </span></p>
<p>Funeral service and cremation will be held on August 23rd 2008.</p>
