Thank you! If you can get past the basic concept it was an enjoyable story because you really get to see the guy fall in love with the girl. Both ISWAK and They Kiss Again are more mature in that they deal with skinship and talk about being intimate and deal with the subject of pregnancy (in They Kiss Again) in an adult manner. I might take the time to watch the first 1 or 2 episodes on ISWAK and then watch the last 3-4, just to get the idea of the characters and how they've grown. But if you find a decent review of the story plot points or even the Wikipedia article about ISWAK then I think you'd be ok.

I like the puppy dog love, though I do have to be in the mood for it. But to me some amount of puppy love needs to be involved for the Noona Romance to work. The Woman Who Still Wants to Marry is my next watch and now I'm even more excited to see it. Miura Haruma is a very serious Noona Killer. Oh yeah the arrogant jerk changing into a dream lover is an excellent story trope too, and so like Mr. Darcy which makes me enjoy it even more!

I'm a very big fan of Choi Jin Hyuk's, but I wanted to see what a few other people thought of Gu Family Book before I committed. I do like Suzy too, she's quite lovely. Lee Seung Gi is awesome and he's another reason I did want to watch the show. I think I might move it up on my to watch list.

I was actually tempted to watch it just for Choi Jin Hyuk. But there was such a mix of responses to it that I wasn't sure if I wanted to dedicate the time to it. I'm currently watching Le Seung Gi in My Girlfriend is a Gumiho and it sounds like he's playing the same sort of character. I want to see him step up and do some things on his own instead of being forced into it. Otherwise the story is pretty cute.

I absolutely loved The Master's Sun, it is now in my top five favorite shows! You'll have to tell me what you think of Gu Family Book, I've heard mixed reviews. Oh yeah 'Suddenly' is a great song!

I recently bought a few Kpop songs and I've been listening to them on repeat :) But I would like to pick up the City Hunter OST and The Master's Sun OST. I'll most likely be buying them soon.

You're so very welcome :) Thank you so much for coming over and reading my blog! I'm really glad that you're enjoying my random ramblings. Yet another thing that we have in common! I love the Noona Romance, it is my favorite story type. The Woman Who Still wants to Marry is on my list to watch next! But I'll add Queen of Reversals and Oh! My Lady to my to watch list as well! So far my most favorite Noona Romance was Last Cinderella, it is actually a Japanese Drama.

Of course! Thank you for sending me the friend's request! For English not being your mother tongue you are exceptionally good at it! Please don't apologize for being bilingual because that's an amazing talent :) I am so happy to meet a kindred spirit! Mr. Darcy will always be my first love, I've read the book so many times I've lost count. I am very excited to meet you! I look forward to lots of excellent conversations in the future!

Indeed, I have only dipped my toe into the Kpop world. I've bought a few songs... and want more lol... so I'd put money on the fact that I will probably take the dive into Kpop very soon.

Hello Mrs Lee Seo Jin!
Happy Christmas and A Fantastic New Year to you too!
I haven't committed to anything over 25 episodes yet. I took a look at Can't Live Without You and it does seem to be right up my alley! But at 100 episodes, whew that's intense. Though I've added it to my list because I can't resist those noona love stories! Thank you very much for the suggestion!

I have a few drama friends who have been recommending some heartbreaking stories to me, but I feel the same as yourself. There is enough tragedy in real life so for now I'll stick to happy and happy-ish endings.
I have City Hall and Que Sera Sera as the next on my list to watch! I've also added all the others that you so kindly recommended to me to my list. I really want to watch MARS but I currently use DramaFever and it isn't yet available there. But don't worry I shall get to all your recommendations, I've looked into each of them and I really want to see them.

Mrs Lee Seo Jin! Things are wonderful here, how are you?
Song Seung Hun was nice to watch throughout My Princess, he made the show worthwhile even though I didn't enjoy the whole thing. I'm glad the review helped!
Indeed, you've hit the nail on the head. Thus far my viewing time has been taken up by cheesey romances. Fluff is what drew me to the Asian drama world and I'm enjoying them so far. However, I am trying to branch out more because I can only handle so much fluff. Though I do prefer a happy ending, maybe in the future I'll be ready for heartbreaking endings.
I really enjoyed I Need Romance, I plan on watching I Need Romance 2 and am looking forward to the 3rd installment too. I've never watched Sex & the City so I don't know if it is similar. I liked the adult approach to relationships and the mature/diverse character archetypes. It is now one of my favorites!

I can only handle the fluff and juvenile dramas for so long before I need to take a break. Usually I can't watch all of the episodes of those types of shows in a row, I need to watch something else after a few episodes. Oh MARS sounds really good I think I'll definitely check that one out!

Thank you! I've taken a look at all of your suggestions and I am going to be adding them to my watch list for sure. I've been so caught up in the fluffy dramas that first brought me to K-Dramas I'm very excited to have something new to sink my teeth into.
Happy Christmas and A Fantastic New Year to you too!
