Akumi

or whatever it's called. (Too lazy to look up the full name XD) ^.^

Haha, I know, I was excited when I saw that soldier in it! :D And I don't think you're supposed to like the dad for quite some time. Frankly, I skipped over a lot of the family stuff because they just get too obnoxious and I get so annoyed. I just want to slap them up and tell them to grow up. ugh, but other than that I really enjoy the show. I'm already on the last episode. O.o I pulled an all nighter because I ran out of pain meds for my foot and it's been being a pain, but no worries I got them today. :D So life's good again. You should let me know what you think when you get further. The families tend to get frustrating, but you can't help but love them anyway. Not to mention I really love her brother. He's awesome. haha OH! The EVIL scary just want to dig a hole and bury mom from Secret Garden is in Smile, You too!!! UGH!!
I think I'll either start Missing You or the Baking King

Haha Yeah, my leg has healed pretty well, but my foot is still being stubborn, and since I can't work my leg muscles yet because of my foot not being healed, it's taking longer than necessary. XD But it's all good because I get to marathon and have a solid excuse to be lazy. :D I finished IM already and started on Smile, You, but now I'm on the last episode already. haha I hope your exams go well! It's good to focus on those first. Are you in college? Let me know what you think of IM when you get a chance to finish it! :D

Haha Thank you! :D Doesn't it just make you smile? Nothing cuter than Lee Seung Gi in a bubble bath. <3 :P

Ah, it may not on a tablet. :/ Maybe...I have a kindle Fire, so I could check if they work the same? XD I don't think it had a sad ending at all! Idk why anyone would say that. It had an open ending, which I'm not overly fond of, but it was done so well that I liked it better open than if she had concretely made a decision on who to go to. (I don't want to give too much away) I just really liked it. I ended it very satisfied with the series as a whole.

And boyfriend's tend to take over things. For me it's the T.V. T.T Thankfully I have my laptop so it's not an issue unless it's a live show. lol Video games are the death of T.V. time. X.X

Also currently watching this drama and laughed to see a beginners guide right after I got done gushing about it to a friend. XD

Bwahaha! I just went to the main page and there's a Beginners Guide to Smile, You. XDXDXD

means we can safely raid each other's lists and feel confident that even if we don't absolutely love a drama the other has seen, we'll still enjoy it. ^.^ Wah, I'm going into cuteness overload with Smile, You. >.< *twitches*

omo I LOVED Powerful Opponents!! <3 It really was good.

That site has EVERYTHING! I love it so much. Decent quality without nearly as many ads as Dramafever or Vikki. You should definitely give it a watch if you like a female lead that can kick butt. I got addicted to it after Secret Garden and City Hunter. XD
I felt the same with TUA. It was just too much, and then the series got cut by a few episodes, so it was so rushed at the ending that it left me with a bad taste. I wanted it to be better because I really like that kind of story-line.And I agree, Reply 1997 did a really good job with making viewers attached to all the characters. I think if I didn't dislike the dad so much, I would have gotten more attached. I just thought he was too nasty, even if that was his way of expressing love. I'm glad we share the same taste that

couple and can't focus on the secondary couple. Or I feel like I have to choose a favorite. I know it's all in my head, but it's the way I'm wired I suppose. XD That's the main reason for putting off Dandelion Family too. I'll probably grow to like that style of story-telling in the future, but eh. XD

Haha! Great minds I tell you! :P Smile, You is pretty much rocking my fluffy purple socks right now. It's adorable, with just the right amount of drama. New Tales Of Gisaeng does look more drama/angst orientated. I tend to stay away from ones that I know the majority is going to be angst and failed love. XD I've considered Ojakgyo Brothers a few times, but it's the same reason as you that I pause. haha! She just played the evil girl too well, and since that drama is a favorite and close to my heart, those characters are deeply rooted in my mind. So I understand. lol The other reason is, for me, unless it's done REALLY well, I don't like multiple stories in one drama. I like the focus on one main couple, and get annoyed when it switches so much. I know a lot of people like all the side stories, and I like SOME, but not a lot. I'm always anxious to know what's going on with the main...

heh it's just fine! I hope you get to spend a lot of time with your dad. ^.^ I actually just started Smile, You. Which will be my longest drama ever. 45 episodes! @.@ I just couldn't do anymore heavy/angsty after Innocent Man. I tried, but I started The King Of Dramas, which I think is a little more on the serious side, regardless of what I've heard, and I had to stop half way through episode 3 because I couldn't pay attention. >.<; So far it's pretty good, has family drama and just plain drama, but there's always a lightness to it. I like dramas like that. Which dramas are you considering? I think other than Smile, You, Shinning Inheritance was the longest drama I've watched.

Oh, and I finished Innocent Man. It was good, but if you're looking for a lighter romance, or more levity in general, I'd put it on hold for a bit. It's pretty heavy. Still good, worth the watch, but..yeah. XD but if you're looking for a legitimate melodrama, Innocent Man is a good choice. :P

I just started Smile, You today, but I'm only on episode 4. I don't usually watch family dramas, not because I dislike them, I just prefer more romance orientated dramas. But, I'm liking it so far! :D I adore The Greatest Love, and it just keeps getting better!! I'd really like to know what you think at the end. Ah, I've watched it twice already and it always makes me smile one second, and tear up the next. And yes, I saw Flower Boy Ramyun Shop, it was my second drama I think. I liked it, well worth the watch. And no, I'm not offended at all that you don't like Taiwanese dramas. We can't all like the same things, and personally I didn't like them at first either. It takes a while to get used to the way the language sounds, and it's a different style. We all have our own preferences. ^,^ I'll let you know what I think of Smile, You once I get further along. :D

Oh man, that one gets me to tear up too! This one always makes me feel like I'm right back into the same feelings as when I'm watching the drama:

that heartache, the yearning for a happy ending, the horror of them separating..gah, I think I'll watch this one, then King 2 Hearts, then Missing You. XD I'll have to buy some kleenex and chocolate to console myself. :P

I'm glad to hear that Missing You has more levity, that's my same complaint about Innocent Man. Where's the happy? *bangs head on desk* Let me know what episode you're on and we'll complain about characters together, and fangirl together too. :P haha

Hiya! ^.^ You sure can call me Unnie! :D I did start watching Innocent Man with you and allysoncg, but I have the unfair advantage of a broken foot. XD (it's healing fine, no worries, and it means I get to watch drama all the time! :P) So I've just been speeding along. lol I Squealed when I saw your DP, idk why, but it makes me happy to see other people love Lee Seung Gi too. XD My DP is from King 2 Hearts. <3 If You haven't seen it, you should, you really should. lol

I notices we shared the same favorites/list entries, so i'll have to ransack your list to see if I've missed anymore dramas I should know about. ^.^ I'm started the last episode of Innocent Man today, but I will keep all comments until everyone catches up. ^.^

Right now I'm watching Innocent Man (A.K.A. Nice Guy) Which it pretty darn good so far. It's well worth a watch. ^.^ Scrolling through your list, It looks like you like romances? *cracks knuckles* I've got plenty recommendations my dear! XD For romance, musts are (only in my opinion though XD) Queen In'Hyun's Man, The Greatest Love, King 2 Hearts, City Hunter (has action as well), and maybe Shinning Inheritance. Oh, and if you want a light and fluffy romance and don't mind a Taiwanese drama, try Smiling Pasta. It always make me happy. These are my utmost favorite dramas besides You're Beautiful and Secret Garden. Idk if they'll all suit your taste, but they're definitely worth a watch. :D Any recommendations for me? I'm always looking for new dramas! ^.^

Heh, this just means we have good taste. :P I think the reason I haven't watched QIHM that many times is because my heart always ACHES and omg I feel like crying just thinking about it! My eye always tear up at the mention of time and a phone booth. T.T It just has a way to get into your soul and stick there. Not to mention some of the best kisses out there. :P Have you seen the director's cut for the ending?? *fans self* haha I'll have to quench my K2H need and then buckle down for some heavy duty sobbing and watch Missing You since it's one you recommend. If I have any tears left after these two dramas. XD

Haha I know what you mean! I have been trying to restrain myself from re-watching my favorite dramas again. I've seen You're Beautiful 6 times, K2H 4 times, City Hunter 5 times, QIHM 3 times, and secret garden god only knows how many times. These I ALWAYS go back to between new dramas, with a few others seen less than 3 times. XD I know what it's like. I don't know how people jump from one to another if they really like it, I get too attached. Personally, I think I'm due for another round of K2H after Nice Guy. XD I really hope Minoz loves QIHM as much as us!! :D

haha I have a broken foot still, so I'm stuck at home. It's an unfair advantage. :P What episode are you on now? I actually liked Eun gi's character, she was nasty, but smart and witty. I'll wait until you catch up to react on where I'm at besides my GIFs. XD I'm having too much fun with them.
