I'll definitely being watching Sherlock soon. I've been needing a little break from Asian dramas I think. It sounds really interesting, as I would expect from Sherlock Holmes. XD I haven't seen the American version since I didn't think I'd like a female thrown in the mix...it just seemed wrong, but if I really like Sherlock, I'll give it a shot. I might just fall in love. Weirder things have happened. haha

GAH! No, Master's Sun is not melo...it's...a lot like The Greatest Love in the feeling it portrays. You know how TGL was so masterful at making one scene tragic and bursting with thousands of emotions one moment, and then all of the sudden you'd be laughing because they turned the tragedy into something you're able to laugh about, even if the hurt doesn't really go away?? I hope that makes sense. That's why I adore TGL so much, even though it was a rom/com, it made me feel more emotions than a melo and more profoundly. When I was sad while watching TGL, huge tears would stream down my face before I even knew what was happening. Then I'd be laughing out loud while reaching for kleenex. Just...amazing. Master's Sun has that same ability. Even the humorous scenes can switch to realistic and emotion filled in a second, every action has a meaning, and there's so much unknown right now. Just...agh! I LOVE IT! I haven't loved (Read: Been obsessed) with a drama this much since Gaksital! You know how much I gushed over that! I just...I can't describe it. It has everything I want from a drama right now, but it's still freaking airing! *Throws things* WHY??? WAE????? It's killing me!!! *Breathes* But it's also absolutely hilarous with a great mixture of horror. <3 So far I've only been scared by one of the ghosts, but I have a high tolerance.

Haha It was really sad to finish. >.<

I'm glad you're enjoying what you're watching even if it's not Asian Cinema! I've been wondering about Sherlock for a while now, I'm glad it's really good! I completely get what you mean about shipping a nonexistent couple, especially if it's two guy friends. During the Sherlock Holmes MOVIES I shipped Sherlock and Watson so hard, even though I created a romantic relationship where there wasn't one. XD

Yes, The Master's Sun is...god so amazing! I'm loving everything about it. It's absolutely torturous having to wait!! T.T I shouldn't have started it, but at the same time, I'm so glad I did. I just don't know. My feels are all over the place from this show. <3 <3 <3

haha Lee Jong Suk can make someone do nonsensical things. :P

You know, I had trouble accepting their age difference the first half of the show, and then all of the sudden it didn't bother me anymore. Personally, I think it's well worth the watch. IHYV is now a favorite of mine and I adore the main OTP. The second time I watched it was better because I got used to the relationship. If you watch it all or a few more episodes and still can't like the relationship, maybe it's just not for you. :/

I'm glad everything with school went well for you!! :D And I can't believe you've finished a 70 episode drama! Which one??

I really want to watch Joo Won too!! T.T I have to hold myself back until it's all aired. I already broke with The Master's Sun, which I freaking adore everything about! <3 <3 <3 and it's killing me having to wait. Ugh. Another new episode tomorrow!! :D Is Good Doctor really good??

Gah, Soo Ha makes my world turn! Wasn't episode 17 intense? haha They did finish it on such an uncertain note with that comment at the end. I agree that IHYV is one giant rollercoaster, but such a fun one! I didn't think I'd love it as much as I did, well...I did because you loved it so much, but I had some doubts, and now i've watched it almost three times. XD haha (I always skip the phone scene in episode 3/4 heh)

How are your other Tdramas coming along?? How are you?

I started The Master's Sun, which was stupid of me since it's airing and I KNOW better, but I couldn't get into any other drama I was watching. It's pretty good, but the characters are a lot like Dokko Jin and Ae Jung from The Greatest Love in a lot of ways. That's not a horrible thing, but it's a little weird to watch. haha I'm still loving it!

I also tried watching School 2013, but I just couldn't get involved in the story. Maybe I can't handle too much of a school drama? Either way, I just skipped around to watch the bromance scenes. XD <3 Then I started Shut Up! Flower Boy Band, which is really good so far, but I didn't want to watch the rest right away and put that on hold too. haha Idk what's wrong with me. Just a cranky week I guess.

I'm a horrible person. I've been cranky as all heck the last few days, so while I'll stumble around and watch dramas, I haven't been good at talking to people. Too snippy. It's been a long week. haha

I did ADORE Orange Days! :D It was cute, heartwarming, hearbreaking, and real all at once. I loved the characters. They had depth and none of them were perfect. It was really great to watch them all grow with each other and find people that accepted who they really were instead of who they thought they should be. I didn't really like the whole "Moving to Germany and marrying someone else right away" bit at all, but it was alright. I would have liked them to keep the realism a little more. Over all, it's a favorite! Kai...I mean who doesn't want their own Kai? "When you open up your left hand....am I there?" hahahaha I just love him!! <3

I was going to start Lovers, but with my attitude I didn't want to ruin the feelings I'd get normally while watching it, if that makes sense? Since you love it so much, I want to give it an honest try and see if I'll love it as much. ^.^

Are you watching anything new? How have you been? Sorry for not responding, I'll do better next time!!

:D I LOVED IT!!I've fallen in love with Soo Ha. Seriously, I want one of him. Let me know what you think and what episode you're on! I don't want to say anything if you're not done yet.

First off, I LOVED this article! Every one of your choices brought a smile to my face! (I love the GIFs and pictures you chose!)Secondly, thank you for including Manager Du Xian Sheng from Skip Beat! :D He's absolutely one of my favorite cute characters too! I agree with every other choice from the dramas that I've seen as well! Awsome article!

That's exactly the drama I was talking about. haha It was worth it...if you skipped scenes. :P

Thank you for all the information! I swear, without your articles I'd have no idea what was going to come out later/soon because I'm too lazy to do the research. XD

Maybe I'm just getting picky or dramad out, but the only one I know for sure I'll be watching is Secret. My reasoning is about the same as yours, Ji Sung. While he wasn't my first, I adore that man and have watched worse dramas because he was in them. haha

Wah, I am passed you now. Heh I stayed up far too late yesterday...or today...whichever one works. I just couldn't stop watching!! Now I'm on episode 13. o.o But Now I'll stop gushing at you. haha

WAH! He kissed her!!! HE KISSED HER! Such an awesome kiss too! Wow. I really wasn't expecting that at all! I thought it'd be the typical boy hands girl over to other guy without ever telling her about his feeling scenarios. But it rocked my socks instead!

Ugh, that dude is really psychotic though. He keeps going after one person after another. There's just no end to it. He really did turn into a monster. I can't believe he was able to justify killing the mom in his mind at all. Killing Hye Sung or Soo Ha makes logical sense, at least revenge wise, but really he just can't see that he's become the criminal and no longer the victim. He scares the hell out of me. I got so frustrated with no one believing Hye Sung and Soo Ha I screamed and woke up Chris. hahaha XD It's kind of a messed up poetic justice though, to have Hye Sung's words thrown back in her face. When she said it's what win's in court that's the truth. Honesty doesn't matter if there isn't evidence. It freaking sucks, and I wish it didn't turn out that way for them, but I'm not missing the morbid irony of it.

ONWARD!

omgomgomgomgomgOMMFG!! What's my worst freaking fear you ask?? First off, thanks for asking, secondly, someone being in my home just WAITING for me, or someone who was in my home when I wasn't there without me knowing to f with my mind. What the hell happened in episode 3 you ask? Again, thank you for asking, SOMEONE WAS IN HER FREAKING HOME!!!!! *curls into a ball* I can handle zombies, ghosts, your run of the mill killer, gory scenes, and pretty much anything BUT a home invasion killer situation type thing. It's rattles my brain and makes me want to cry it scares me that bad! And what does she do?? Picks up a frying pan?? Are you freaking kidding me!?! I'd flee the house, and if that was not an option, Lock the door of my room, arm myself with whatever was available, and immediately call 911. Not go LOOKING for the person. F that! And that SONG!! *Starts crying* Omgomgomg. I'm not a squeamish person or someone that gets scared easily, but I literally started crying a little. It's only going to get worse isn't it? People. People are my worst fear. Because there are some extremely messed up people and a person can do far worse things to another person than any inanimate object ever could. Like being in your freaking home waiting to slaughter you. ....

*BREATHES*

Besides my nearly debilitating fear, I'm completely LOVING this drama! I really like how so far Soo Ha is having to reconcile the image of Hye Sung he created in his mind with who she grew into as an adult. It's a refreshing twist on the first love plot line. Sorry for the above rant, but I feel tons better after freaking out on here. XD

WOW! What an awesome first episode!!! I'm so freakin excited!! I got to see my favorite child actress, and Soo Ha is so freakin amazing! <3<3 I love how he's still looking for her and checks everyone woman that looks like her. Awwww I'm also loving the mind reading bit! I'm wondering how everything from her past was resolved. Gah! ONWARDS!

If your friend is able to find it, I'd love to know where! Thank you! ^.^ And awe...I'm starting IHYV right now!! I don't mind those kinds of spoilers. I like knowing who the girl ends up with so I'm not heartbroken later on. Although, most dramas are pretty clear about it, but I noticed a lot of people were freaking out about the female lead maybe ending up with the lawyer dude in IHYV. So it keeps you guessing until the end?

Oh! One thing I really loved about FB was that it totally gave Shin Woo more of a chance with the girl. He was a little more obvious and there were a few ADORABLE scenes with him and go mi nam. So much so that I was seriously rooting for him for a while there, even knowing how it ended.

We all need more Dokko Jin in our lives. :P

Ah, did you ever finish IHYV yet, or is it still on hold, and what episode did you stop at? If I gush, (which lets be honest, I will gush) I don't want to gush about an episode you haven't seen.

haha I hate when you don't get handed all your bags, it's usually always the ones that have the most important things in them that get left behind too.

Gah, I just love Go Mi Nam and Tae Kyung's relationship from the get go, and even if there's better dramas production wise, the relationships in YB are beyond compare for me. And yes! I remember how surprised I was when I first saw him kiss her! I didn't really know what Kdramas were then, so I had no spoilers. It was an epic experience.

Ah, I won't have too many expectations for Nine when I finally see it. I get why you have problems with it though because QIHM is one of your favorite dramas, so it set the bar way up there. Though, I do think that even if it did match what you wanted, it still wouldn't be good enough to be mentioned along side QIHM for you. No insult intended. I have a few dramas I'm the same with.

Mwahaha! And then you got sucked into Tdrama world! About My Lucky Star...hmmm...I guess it was one of the first Tdramas I've watched, and I truly adored the beginning. It was fresh and something completely new, and I really loved the two leads together. But about halfway through I got so damn bored with the whole story and it kept circling around itself, and I really felt like it could be 16 episodes and be better for it. I might have to skim through it again though and see if it wasn't just because I wasn't used to Tdramas yet like FG was a victim to. If that makes sense? I was slow to change until I found that one drama that made me want to give Tdramas a second look. Like Jut You did for you. I'd say if you're curious give it a shot. I just know I don't really remember much about it, and that can't be a good sign.

I think Rain is kind of ugly...so no. haha I'm just being petulant now. I don't really like TOP look wise either! THANK YOU! I have to be careful who I say that around because I'd get mauled by a fan. o.o Always tip toe when it comes to dramaland and their biases. I can't place what it is about him either. I think it's the just way his facial feature combine? In other words, it's his face. Haha XD Yes I'm putting this under a spoiler for the sole purpose of my TOP comment.

Those cases are freaking ADORABLE!! Awesome picture choices! Now you can bring a little bit of dramaland with you wherever you go! What's the bottom right picture on the first one from?? I can't place it. o.o; I wonder if I can have them make a case for my android phone...hmmm...I'm jealous. Like a little kid that sees something cool and must have it. XD

Oh wow!! O.O His son was charged with that?? :( Poor guy. I can't imagine what that has done to his career, not to mention his home life. :/ I'm not devaluing the need for his son to be charged, because he was rightfully charged for doing something like that, but I wish it wouldn't effect Dokko Jin's career. I miss him. Yes, I'm a selfish being.

Hmm, FB was ok, worth the watch, but I didn't like it nearly as much as everyone else is. Everyone says the acting was great, but I didn't see it. In some scenes it was awesome, but I really didn't even like Go Mi Nam in FB. She was really annoying and when she got upset her voice did this really obnoxious squeak/whine/tremble thing that made me want to kick her in the face. Tae Kyung was ok, and it was fun and different because he shows a more emotional side and is slightly friendlier way earlier, and the romance was really freakin adorable, but it was missing a lot that I love about YB. Like all of their comradery, just how much they all look after Go Mi Nam, and a lot of their individual personalities was a little lost. It also just didn't have the fast pace that YB seems to have, and the camera lingered on a scene for at least five seconds too long when absolutely NOTHING was happening. Drove me up the wall. BUT! They did have a lot of differences that were fun to see, and they actually put both go min nams in the same place at the same time at the end! Haha I always wanted YB to do that damn it. Also, they had some great real kiss scenes. ;P

I have been "starting" Nine for months now. haha I think I should move it off my CW list because I haven't even really started it yet. Idk why, but I'm not interested right now. I thought you said it was really good? Was it the ending that bothered you? Maybe just not as good as everyone said it was?

Oh I'm glad you had fun! :D There's nothing better than a weekend at the lake! I'm sorry about the sunburn, but I laughed a little! Only because I can commiserate, having fair skin like you do! (Being a ginger has horrible draw backs besides being called carrot top in elementary school...which I've never understood because a carrot's top is technically green...but that's before I knew who carrot top is...so i guess it makes sense now..wow...how come I never put that together?? >.> I digress...)What's the point of sunscreen being in stick form??? Wouldn't that take FOREVER to put on? I'm thinking like glue stick size...and that's ridiculous. Well, at least you had fun, so it's worth it eh? ^.^

It would be easier to watch MY if you skip the first few episodes. I'd be concerned you were masochistic if you didn't. XD I think that drama is due for another re-watch for me as well! I think that the way you watch MY is the way I treat BM or You're Beautiful! I'm rewatching You're beautiful right now because I just finished Fabulous Boys and I missed the original.

Bahaha I have no problem with historicals anymore, so I'm pretty excited for it! :P I'll let you know once I finish Iris if it's worth watching because of her. It seems to be a pretty heavy drama, lots of gritty action, but if she plays a big enough part that might help, eh?

I do not think he looks like Rain! *cough* >.>; I actually have a slight dislike for Rain. I'm not entirely sure why, so I have no reason, but it's there. haha Maybe because everyone is so in love with him, and then the fact that I didn't like Full House and thought his acting was pretty weak, I decided I'd be the one person who was an anti fan. XD haha I've never claimed to be a completely logical person.

Yeah, I don't think the K version of Skip Beat will be coming out anyways. There's only one person cast, TOP I think, and it's been just hanging out in the wind as an idea/speculation type thing for quite a while. Eh, either way. I thought AB was a really cute idea too, and read the manga a long time ago when it first came out, and about one book from the end I just stopped reading because I got so man at how stupid the writer got. I NEVER do that with books. Especially if it's something like a series that's you've already bought the first 4 or however many. I've been tempted to watch the drama, but idk if it would be worth it. I do know there's a J version as well if you just wanted to see the drama. Maybe they changed the ending in the drama version and didn't follow the manga.
