The Successful Story Of A Bright Girl (End) (English Subtitled) (Malaysia Version)
The Successful Story Of A Bright Girl (End) (English Subtitled) (Malaysia Version) DVD Region All
(16)Our Price: US$99.99Related promotions:August 21, 2006 "Bright Girl" is not so brightI've just finished watching "Bright Girl.." and I am very disappointed with this series. The casting for the female lead is completely off. I understand that there is an intended 9yr age gap between the two leads but Jang Nara looks, talks and acts like a 12yr old - she does not appear to be the bright, charismatic young girl the director had implied for the character. JN/Yang Soon lacks a sense of maturity, wit and strength both in her character and appearance; she did not fit the role of a strong and captivating female lead whose mission is to "save her Prince". Something is missing or rather; a lot is missing to validate her role. Moreover, it was absolutely painful to watch the forced chemistry between Jang Hyuk and Jang Nara. I cringed on the thought that the male lead is paired with someone better off playing his kid sister. A very suitable kid sister JN would've been. Enough said. I won't bother nailing the aggravating flaws of the story or the senseless ending of Yang Soon's new endeavors. However, I am giving this drama a generous 6.8 out of 10 because despite its many flaws, it kept me wanting to follow through until the end. (and I am glad it's over!) I did not buy this item and cannot confirm its quality.

June 27, 2006 One of TVB's best...If you are a true HK drama series addict, then you would've watched 'Condor Heroes' countless times and then more. If you are a new fan, this one is truly an all-time favourite and frankly, one of TVB's best. Casting was perfect, even down to the minor characters. "Wong Yung" has marked her place in so many hearts til this day.
Of course, any classic is worth buying (in this case, you'd have to buy the whole series) but it is upsetting to hear that various scenes have been taken out from this collection. Why would they do that?
My review is simply to applaud this series - again.
