Plot

"The Heirs" depicts the friendships, rivalries and love lives of young, rich heirs led by Kim Tan (Lee Min-Ho) and a girl named Cha Eun-Sang (Park Shin-Hye). Unlike the others, Cha Eun-Sang is considered ordinary and comes from a poor background.

18-year-old Cha Eun-Sang lives with her mother who is mute. Her mother works as a housekeeper and Eun-Sang also works part-time jobs to help out. One day, Eun-Sang's older sister (Yoon Jin-Seo) calls from the U.S. and informs them that she will marry. Eun-Sang's mother then asks Eun-Sang to send her older sister some money from her savings account. Eun-Sang isn't happy with her situation and decides to go to the U.S. herself to see if she can start a better life with her sister.

When Eun-Sang arrives in California she is in for a shock. Her older sister lives in a filthy home with a deadbeat boyfriend who seems violent. Her sister is also not getting married or going to school and works full-time as a waitress. When Eun-Sang finally tracks down her sister working at a beach front restaurant, she takes the money Eun-Sang brought for her wedding and leaves without even saying goodbye. Eun-Sang's dreams of starting a better life in America quickly vanishes and she crumbles to the ground in tears.

Meanwhile, Kim Tan is not your typical high school student, but a handsome and wealthy Korean heir to a large conglomeration. He is sitting out on the patio of the beach front restaurant, watching everything unfold between Eun-Sang and her sister. Kim Tan's American friend then sees a ziplock bag with a powdery substance fall out of Eun-Sang's suitcase and runs over to scoop it up. Kim Tan knows immediately that the ziplock bag doesn't contain drugs, but rather powder grain to make traditional Korean drinks. Soon, Eun-Sang runs off after Kim Tan's friend and Kim Tan goes to help Eun-Sang. When the dust is settled, Eun-Sang walks out of a police station and her passport is temporarily confiscated. With nowhere to go for Eun-Sang, Kim Tan offers to let her stay at his home. Although they seem to come from different worlds, they quickly develop a rapport for each other. But, when Kim Tan is at school, Eun-Sang meets a girl named Rachel (Kim Ji-Won). Rachel informs Eun-Sang that she is Kim Tan's fiance and she demands that Eun-Sang leaves his home immediately. Eventually, Eun-Sang returns to South Korea.

Kim Tan now feels nothing but emptiness after Eun-Sang's departure. He decides to go back to Korea even though his older stepbrother Won (Choi Jin-Hyuk) strongly opposes his return. When Kim Tan gets back to his luxurious mansion like home, he sees someone briefly that resembles Eun-Sang. Kim Tan goes to his mother Ki-Ae (Kim Sung-Ryoung) and asks about the unfamiliar, but familiar girl that he briefly saw. His mother tells him that the girl is their housekeeper's daughter and her name is Cha Eun-Sang. She's also staying in their home.

Its a very interesting because each members has its characters and the games and missions vary from time to time and you get to see other famous celebrities plus as a saying says that Laughter is the best medicine~ and this show gives just the right amount of doze of laughter. 

Barefoot Friends

Barefoot Friends is my 2nd choice of variety specially this past episodes discovering Korean home made food and looking for the best rice craver and giving food to the single celebrities are pretty addictive.

HOLIKA HOLIKA HAUL & REVIEW

Holika Holika is now in the PHILIPPINES and Im so happy about it!

Holika Holika Pig Nose Clear Black Head Peeling Massage Gel

Directions: Apply to skin where blackheads are present. Let dry for 5 minutes. Rub off gel. Wash off any excess product on face.

   Benefits:

• Removes Dead Skin Cells

• Removes Blackheads

• Minimizes Pores

• Moistens

• Softens

WATER MARCH MOISTURE FULL CREAM

Their are 2 different versions of the Water March cream: a pink one and a green one.  Whereas the pink version was a rich cream suited for dry skin, the green version is more of a gel with aloe, better for oily, acne-prone skin.

   I love the packaging and since I have just started using it I cannot really comment much about its pore reduction but it really gives your skin moisture ang refreshing feel it doesnt have that much smell and it has a gel like texture.

Style and Lightweight Bags

> This bag has a smooth finish and you can put just everything you need, and since its almost time to go back to school this is also perfect for it specially college students~

> This bag is much bigger than the first bag and its also a lightweight bag, and it has a more detailed design on it! great for going to malls etc.

mini haul (tony moly, FLy, Artists Studio, Revlon)

> Hello! Im back with a mini haul I bought a new pair of sun glasses from FLy and I really like it, its not to big or small just perfect for my face (lol)

> I was amazed by this product by tony moly because when you are just looking at it it looks transparent but when you put it on your lips it becomes a red tint!

> This is a foundation brush from artist studio 

> Revlon Lip Butter its really moisturizing and really pigmented.

New Diary, Stud earings(forever21), & Maybelline Mineral Power

> This 2 lovely New Diary is super cute I cant resist but buy it yesterday +National Book Store Inc  

> This are also super awesome studs from forever 21 it can be worn at any outfit +Forever 21 

> Maybelline Mineral Power Simply Coral II its a great pinkish coral color perfect for summer! its definitely must try blush

etude house sweet recipe review (nail polish and sweet recipe cupcake all over color)

> The nail polish is actually a let down for me I do not recommend it because you need at least 3 layers for it to be seen. but it is better as a decoration.

> I prefer it using as a blush and a primer for eyes but not for the lips and I also don't like the texture of it but it has a nice smell and its the same with the other colors.

> GREEN MANGO A SOUR FRUIT GOOD WITH SALT OR SAUTED SHRIMP

> SUMAN ITS MADE WITH STICKY RICE GOOD WITH BROWN SUGAR, YOU CAN ALSO IT CAN BE A COLD OR A HOT DISH

LU GANG CAFE

> We ate at SM NORTH and it was a great experience it may be a little pricey for common people but it would be worth a try! here is a link of there site in manila: http://www.lugangcafe.com.ph/ourmenu.php?page=beef

>> Steamed Angled Loofah With Shrimps Xiao Long Bao, its a healthy dumpling but I don't recommend it if you are picky with foods and if you don't eat much vegetables.

>Black Pepper Beef, This dish is super delicious but it can be a little salty but the plain rice will minimize it. 

> sweet and sour pork, a common dish but the texture of the skin is a little different and this dish is safe to pick if you are a first timer on a restaurant. 

etude house sweet recipe haul >.^

> Hello ^.^ I Got 1/3 of the sweet recipe collection, and I'm loving it can't wait to try it out already!  I bought this at SM FAIRVIEW though there collection is not complete and they don't have many stock they only have 3-5 stock per product of the sweet recipe collection the good thing is that you could also reserve the product you want. SM NORTH has most of the stock of sweet recipe collection. 

> I got the sweet recipe ice cream nail polish and dear my party nails also the baby choux.

Tony Moly pore brush, Etude House Sun Block, Clio Lipstick, and Beyond Lipgloss

> Tony Moly's facial scrub I bought this for 999 Pesos almost 1000 Pesos, I have been using it for a week and its great! the texture of the brush is really soft and really helps cleaning the face but the downside of it is that its not easy to get it dry.

> Etude House Sun Prise  I have also used this product for a week and It has 42 spf++, its also a natural corrector , and it also whitens the skin. what I love about it was the texture and from my 1 week experience from it my skin tone really gets balance. (I will update this review after I really can say its really effective) .

> Clio art lipstick, I just bought this one and haven't really used it but the when i swatched it on the store its really nice color and I love the packaging of this product.

 > Beyond Color Artist LipGloss this is better to put with a medium color pink shades but you can wear it as it is. I wouldn't say that its my best lipgloss that I have tried but its one of my lipgloss that i would wear twice a week. And it has that strawberry fragrance on it.

Review on dear diary mask, Etude House Lip Gloss, BB cream and Eye Cream, also ParaDo eyeshadow

This are some of the beauty products that i have been using.

 the first one is the the Hyaluronic Acid Moisturizing Mask from dear diary its gives a really good amount of moisture on your face and its refreshing to the skin. 

Second Item is the Etude House Precious Mineral BB cream as you can see its quite been used a lot because I have been using it since September last year and it has a SPF30/PA++ its the first BB cream that I have used and it really gives a right amount of coverage to my face. 

Third Item is the Etude House Eye's Cream Vanilla Moist I have been using this eye cream for the past 1 and half year and I finished 2 and its my already my 3rd. What I really like about it is that in just 1 month it gives your under eyes moisture and brighter (note: my under eye can dry easily specially when i do not get enough sleep but with this eye cream it gives it enough moisture)

Fourth Item is the ParaDo Eye shadow this one is a single eye shadow PK01  What I love about is that I can use it as a daily basis makeup. And I got it free with the bigger pallet.

Fifth Item is the Etude House Pink Tonic Lip Gloss I love this Lip Gloss because it has a strawberry scent and it gives a light peachy color that goes well with my lipsticks.

Etude House Pink Tonic Lip Gloss

Snack Time

House Special Gong Cha Winter Melon Tea ~ A nice cold tea in the afternoon, that gives a balance in taste.

Dunkin Donuts Nutty Choco ~ it goes well with the winter melon and great to eat as a afternoon snack.
