Had a similar experience :), it is just really good

What about Jo Jung Suk... He is my fave...

He was my favourite as well!

Would love to watch this

Good point sometimes things are included as cultural reference / satire, which would be different from product placement. Though that is usually done more by making subtle connections. For example I once saw a show that had pear phones (a reference to apple's iPhones).

LOL, that is funny :).

I will, thanks for the suggestion :)

More Jang Geun Suk is the dream :)

That is pretty cool, I think I would be one of those people ;)

Thanks

Yes we are :)

From reading a lot of these comments I would say that drama watchers are SAMSUNG supporters, all thanks to dramas they have seen,

Those are only a few examples, the drama has way more New Balance (and a lot of other products).

I've seem that. One of the worst cases was in Warehouse 13 (american show) one of the characters literally starts naming all the features of the car.

It is a Samsung :)

:) I did notice that, but I wasn't sure if it was a real product or not, since I couldn't recognised. It is actually my guilty pleasure when they do ads for real product like in You're Beautiful.

With American show i found 30 Rock to have the most shameless product placement. They make it so obvious that they are making it obvious, just taking the mickey out of product placement that I just love it.

I agree. I am pretty sure To the Beautiful You's production cost were completely covered by product placements ;).

You are a lot like my sister, product placement just goes over her head. :)

I wanted to write a bit about cars in dramas, but I kind of ran out of space. There are so many dramas that feature cars, car brands were actually one of the first to be allowed to be shown in Korea way back in 2009.
