Sì, leggendo la trama avevo capito che non era un drama 'leggero', anche come genere è un melodramma, quindi il dramma me lo aspettavo in ogni caso. Non ho problemi con i dramma se fatti bene e bilanciati senza che siano eccessivamente esagerati. Purtroppo lo sappiamo che i coreani spesso sono incapaci a bilanciare i toni e tutto sfocia nel dramma esagerato e inutile. Ho scelto questo drama proprio perché curiosa di vedere come i coreani avrebbero trattato l'argomento. Mi hai convinta, lo provo. Specialmente quando hai detto che c'è naturalezza nelle relazioni tra i protagonisti e ciò fa apparire tutto molto verosimile, una cosa rara in questo genere dove i rapporti e le situazioni risultano spesso troppo forzati e inverosimili. Grazie! Ti farò sapere quando lo inizio! :)

I'm fine thanks, except for the fact that I'm going through a drama slump, again. The last drama I enjoyed was Reply 1994, but nothing after that. I'm downloading Loving You a Thousand Times now, and I'll probably watch that. I'm curious to know how koreans handle the surrogate mother theme, hope it doesn't turn too over dramatic. And you? Seen any good dramas lately?

Ciao Paola! Come va? In questi giorni sto scaricando Loving You a Thousand Times e ho ricordato che tu lo hai tra i preferiti! Sto droppando un sacco di drama ultimamente, perdo interesse subito e, prima di iniziarlo, volevo sapere (senza spoilerare possibilmente) se è il 'tipico' drama coreano, con esagerati personaggi e situazioni, dramma in ogni dove, protagonista femminile debole e remissiva, secondi leads fuori di testa. In tal caso lo eviterei perché ne ho abbastanza di tutto ciò XD

Ok! I'm sending it to you with We Transfer because the file is big (250mb)!

You're welcome!! :) I like the song choices for this drama, every song fits the moment. I discovered lots of good old songs thanks to this drama! If you're looking for other songs, in this site you can find a list made by a fan of all the songs played in the drama: http://followingkpop.wordpress.com/2013/10/18/playlist-answer-me-1994/

I have the full ost (2cds). If you can't find it, I can send it to you by email. One of my favorite pieces is 'D'inverno' by Luigi Rubino :)

Hi! Thanks for the friend request! Nice to meet you :)

We are probably the only ones who spoiled ourselves the finale on purpose XD

Goood! I'm definitely going to watch it then! :)

Kang So Ra will be in it too, but I don't think she will be the female lead.

But if the drama starts to have draggy moments, short episodes are better than longer ones XD Oh, you're watching The Firstborn. How are you liking it so far?

need eng subs ;)

I don't remember a scene where Na Jung makes the viewers hope/believe she has feelings toward Chilbong (love, not friendship). Why people are so disappointed with the ending? Did you really believe that after loving Trash for 20 episodes, she ended up marrying Chilbong? If there was this twist, it really didn't make sense. If the final choice was Chilbong, the screenwriter would've started to build a relationship between them way before. You should distinguish your love for the character from the love for the couple. There is never been a Na Jung/Chilbong couple. Chilbong's love has always been one-sided; he's handsome, cute, sweet, whatever you want, but she never loved him. You need to accept it. Anyway, this husband thing really wasn't the main point for me. This drama was funny, interesting and touching, even if there were some draggy moments, I really enjoyed watching it!

Maybe I'm the only one, but one thing I hated the most in Reply 1997 was the husband mystery thing. The screenwriter makes use of this contrivance to engage viewers to continue watching the drama, but this at the expense of the love story itself. In this way, the love story loses its uniqueness; you're there wondering all the time ''who'll be?'' and end up not enjoying the love story for what it is. That's why I, who hate all kinds of spoilers, for the first time in my life, after finishing ep2, I went and read the finale spoilers. After watching more episodes I realized that there was no need to do it because it was really obvious that Trash was the husband. I read everywhere about Team Chilbong and Team Trash, but it seems to me that no one cares about Na Jung's feelings, the most important thing in my opinion. Na Jung loved Trash from the beginning and never looked at anyone else.

Same here. I've only one drama on-hold. I don't know, it didn't get me interested, but at the same time, I didn't want to drop it. But I know myself, I'll probably never pick it up again XD I gave Horse Doctor 8 as well. I agree with you, it had a lot of useless and flat characters, if it weren't for the main character/actor, I probably wouldn't have given this high rating.
It's rare to find a drama without draggy moments, especially if it has so many episodes, good thing that it's only 30 minutes per episode! I'll watch it for sure ^^
Yes, my dogs are cute, two cute little pests XD

Ancient chinese series are always dubbed. But I read somewhere that Ariel Lin dubbed her own voice in this.

Yes, he looks manlier than before in the trailer, but that doesn't mean his acting has improved. Let's wait and see :)

Kim Hyun Joong + Jin Se Yeon: How to ruin a potential good drama with just two names. For the sake of the drama, I really hope their acting improves.

Hi Mirichan :D
I don't really have a lot of know-ledge about sageuks, it's just that I've become very picky now and I pay attention to every detail. Anyway, you can ask me everything, I'm always happy to exchange opinions with other drama lovers :) Did you like Horse Doctor? You put on hold Goddess Of Fire, I dropped it at ep 14. I couldn't bring myself to continue watching, too boring and ripetitive and I don't really like Moon Geun Young. You're watching The Daughter of the Emperor, it looks promising!! I'm waiting for it to end, I never watch airing dramas!
P.S. Your dog is so cute!! Those sweet eyes! *__* I have two dogs too :)
