MARS
Mars. God of war to the Romans. an important and awe-inspiring figure in the world of Rome. Mars. aka Ares to the Greeks. appears to be a brave warrior on the warfront but a coward afraid of failure.
Mars. a Taiwanese drama serial i was hooked on recently. i finished the box in 4 days again.
i was prepared to be bored by the endless cute and lovey-dovey scenes Taiwanese serials are so popular for. watched it cos i savaged all the vcds in my house and am even watching some of my faves on repeat mode. so when my sis borrowed Mars for me, i was prepared for the stereotypical plot but decided to go thru it for lack of energy and better thgs to do between my crazy lifestyle now.
though i wasn't super impressed by Big S(u remember shancai from meteor garden) and Vic Chow's portrayals of their characters, put simply, Big S cant act and Vic Chow was just a pretty boy, the plot intrigued me.
pyschology of the mind. a born pyscho. co-existence of intense love and intense hatred for the person closest to you. a unique portrayal of twins. the fear of failure. the longing to be in the centre of the crowd. to be recognised. loved. somehow the plot spoke to me in ways i thot it wun. awakened feelings i wanted to keep locked, numbed always. seduced out all the feelings i wanted not to be seen. coaxed me out of the emotional shell i had put myself in. criticised all my self-pitying self. and after all these, emptying me of nothing, threw me back into a tighter shell, told me never to trust. never again.
if u dun have too bad of a opinion of taiwanese serials, maybe u guys wud like to watch it sometime.
