Hi Davia ^^

I'm so glad you're enjoying TPM (:. Which ep are you on?
I recommended it to a close friend of mine, but she didn't seem to enjoy it because it was too intense. Though, I guessed that if you really like BM then you would like TPM as well. They have similar elements, and amount of suspense to them.

I think Chae Hong Joo is a nasty character. In all honesty, I don't know if she'll become nicer after finding out that Kang To is the Bridal mask, since Kang To loves Mok Dan and not her. We'll see where her character goes, but she looks like a serpent at the moment - haha.

I knew that Shunji would go ballistic. Wait, till he finds out that Mok Dan loves his archenemy/once-upon-a-time-"brother". Which episode are you currently on, by the way? I thought ep 7,8,9 were slow, but ep 10 totally picked up the pace for me.

I still haven't caught up with Dr.Jin - haha.

I didn't mean to hurt you. I'm sure you don't like some of my favorite dramas either - haha.

Actually, I'm not quite sure. I like Kang Ji Hwan, but he didn't really stand-out in any dramas for me. As for Park Shi Hoo, I really enjoyed watching him in The Princess's Man. It's a tough call, since I like both actors. I don't know if I'd like Park Shi Hoo in another drama - haha.

Like, some of my favorite actors that I've listed are usually because of 1 or 2 of their stand-out performances. It doesn't necessarily mean that it's guaranteed that I'd love them in another project, if you know what I mean.

What about you?

Too many unnecessary kissing scenes and dialogues for a first episode. The first episode is always supposed to be a 1-hr-hooker, so the audience would stay tune for the next. This one just didn't quite hit the mark for me. I'll give it another chance for sure though.

P.S. I never watched season 1.

I really didn't like The Greatest Love - haha.

I'm also excited for his next drama!

Ok, I'll pose you a question - hehe. Lee Yeon Hee or Shin Se Kyung?

Is that The Greatest Love and Rooftop Prince?

Yes, I'm a fan of Binnie (:

No problem (:

Hmmm... I actually don't know what's my favorite rom-com. Though, the one I remember I had the most laughter from were Secret Garden, and Smile, You. So I guess those two. After-all, they're on my top 5 favorite list anyway - haha.

What about you?

I'm sorry that I confused you. I also meant Hong SisterS. I forgot the "s" at the end - haha. Anyhow, I believe there are 2 Hong Sisters... the ones who wrote K2H, and the other ones who wrote You're Beautiful, Big, MGIAG, ect... I got confused before too - haha. I was talking about the latter sisters.

Hyun Bin also looked skinny in Secret Garden. I hope everything is going well now. He does look skinny.

Yeah, I suggest you watch AGD over Big.

I was actually really enjoying Big at the beginning, but the storyline is now becoming superfluous. It seems like nothing is progressing. It's just a hack/slash of bickering b/w the two protagonists with a few obstacles (Ma Ri, and that doctor woman) in the way. Childish bickering really. This is coming from someone who was set for the OTP before the show even aired.

I loved ep 1 & 2 very much. However, after episode 2, I feel like it failed to keep up with its original premise. This was only evident to me in the recent 2 eps. As much as Gong Yoo and Lee Min Jung are adorable together, their characters lack dynamic. It's certainly not the actors' faults. I blame it on the Hong Sisters' script & their unorganized writing.

They keep on showing the pictures of the two angels every now and then, but nothing "truly" happens.

Btw, my favorite character at the moment is Choong Sik - haha.

I'm sorry, but this is just really bad. I find Kim Ki Bum's acting rather exaggerated. The storyline is just very basic, and there's nothing that captures my attention. I don't mind a simple storyline, but this just questions my intelligence over and over. Seriously, I don't think the characters are realistic (despite being in an unrealistic environment).

I feel like this is aimed for the younger audience, or maybe it's not just for me.

In all honesty, the second female lead annoys the heck out of me. She thinks she's all that? These characters are so generic that there's nothing I can relate to because they're truly non-existent.

Omo! I didn't recognize Hyun Bin from your display picture until I pressed on it - haha!

I also find JGS is majorly overrated. In all honesty, I thought You're Beautiful was silly. He's not even as gorgeous as he thinks he is... it's just some girls hype him up too much.

Yeah, I was very much into our OTP even before they started filming. I'm talking about Big - haha. Though, I'm finding the storyline somewhat ridiculous at many parts. It's not the actors' faults. It's the Hong Sister. Sometimes they make lame comedies or over-the-top-non-hilarious ones. Arrgg...

I don't know much about IU, so I can't say. I only heard 1 song from her. What about you then?

Hi mitparmar (:
Thanks for the friend request!
I'm also a fan of Ha Ji Won, Secret Garden, and A Moment to Remember.

Yup, I'm up-to-date with Big (:
I don't know, but I find that the pacing is going really slowly now. Nothing seems to be happening. I was pumped for the first two episodes, but now it seems like it's recycling its plot devices. Don't get me wrong... it's not bad, but it's not as awesome as it was originally either.

A Gentleman's Dignity has much better organization. I usually don't like ahjumma-ahjussi dramas either, but this one is very well-made. Of course, there are flaws, but they're not that big.

Don't worry about late replies. I know you're busy. After-all, there's a life besides mydramalist - haha!

Smile, You has 45 episodes. I usually can't stand long dramas either, but I thought it was well-worth the time. It brought me many laughter - hehe.

I'd recommend AGD over Big. It's a lot smarter. Big is going a bit downhill for me. I was pumped from the first two episodes, but now it seems to be straying away somewhere else. The dynamic seems to be very repetitive. It's not bad, but it's not awesome either. As for AGD, it has been good equally throughout (:

You didn't tell me if you preferred Jang Geun Suk or Jung Il Woo - hehe!

I heard it got an extension; so there will be a total of 28 episodes. Is this true?

I saw that you dropped Padam Padam. I also wanted to drop it when I saw the first episode, but it gets very good later on and things will start to make more sense. The bromance b/w Kim Bum and Jung Sung-Woo is awesome as well!

It's one of the most realistic dramas I've watched. What I mean by realistic is that the characters tend to spill the beans and not hide secrets. The conversations b/w them are also realistic... I mean the dialogues.

I checked the comedies you enjoy, and it seems like most of what we enjoy are similar - hehe. So I think you'll enjoy Big. Big is funny, but it's nothing original really. I would also recommend you trying A Gentleman's Dignity. You can choose which type of comedy you like better. Though, AGD is by the same writer as Secret Garden ;).

I don't know if you can stand long family dramas, but Smile, You is really good! I laughed out loud like every episode. It might be slow at the beginning, but it's so worth it with all the literal laugh out loud moments you get. It really makes you feel warm and fuzzy - hehe :3.

Hmmm... I don't like Jang Geun Suk nor Jung Il Woo. I guess I'm indifferent about them atm. I'm gonna go with Jang Geun Suk because I did like him at a certain point. I was actually obsessed over him in Hwang Jin Yi. However, I find he's very full of himself now that he's extremely popular, and girls fawn over him. I think he's a better actor than Jung Il Woo, but that's perhaps because he has more experience. Anyway, his dressing and hairstyle really itches my eyes nowadays - haha. Also, he seems to care about his appearance more than the leading girls.

On the other hand, Jung Il Woo looks more like a down-to-Earth guy. He seems like a nice fella, and his acting is pretty good. He seems natural for most of his roles. Though, none of his roles made me gaga over him yet - haha.

Oh, really? I thought a lot of people like her. I guess when an actress is popular, sometimes there can be many haters as well - haha.

Yeah, TPM is definitely intense. Are you the type of person who cries easily when watching dramas? I know, I'm not. I've never cried a waterfall for a drama before. Perhaps, shed some tears or so, but never really cried. The only 2 dramas I shed some tears for were Beautiful Days and 1 Liter of Tears. So no, I didn't cry for TPM. Though, it my heart felt very heavy while watching it. I was indeed emotional over it as well. However, it wasn't to the point where I needed to let out a waterfall - haha. I did tear up near the end though, but nothing came out.

I'm glad you're enjoying TPM!!!

edit: Wow, you're already on episode 13 - haha!! It's getting exciting eh?

I'm also watching I do, I do. I think it's alright.

Also, watching Dr.Jin... and I find some parts kinda boring - haha. I just find there isn't enough risk factors for our Dr.Jin. He gets around his problems too easily. I also find it hard to accept how he just blends into the Joseon era with ease.

Oh, Big is also hilarious! A Gentleman's Dignity is very good as well (:

Can't wait to hear from you about Bridal Mask - haha.

Hope you're doing well too. Take care!
