I hope he ends up with the woman at the broadcasting station ;) Although that might just be my bias speaking, because I saw Woo Hee Jin in the '92 drama feelings and she was so pretty there and is still over 20 years later^^
Anyways, I don't see any romance happening for him with PMY's character either. If I understood everything correctly then she's the daughter of his sister-in-law, right? Although there seems to be more to the backstory, that would be a bit weird^^

He was really memorable in Han Gong Ju for me. Hope to see him in bigger roles soon!

Yes^^ Since the subs of the last 5 eps aren't edited, they didn't make that much sense alone, but with listening carefully I was able to understand everything that happened :)

Well I loved it from the start, but I liked it even better when you find out more about the guys' pasts later on. It's probably best to judge for yourself, but then again no need to force yourself to watch something if you don't like it that much ;)

I watched it raw on viki, I don't think there are completed subs yet^^ If the drama is not available for you on viki, check back on myasiantv, they update pretty fast.

Promising start :)

I haven't seen most of these dramas, but Bridal Mask and Warrior Baek Dong Soo are definitely two dramas with a very memorable OST (not just the songs, but also the score). Your choices for these two are my favourites as well, but to WBDS I'd also add this song by Shin Sung Woo that I still listen to a lot:

If you're still looking for subs, I'd recommend to watch it on darksmurfsubs (but you need an account there)

Just finished it and the ending scene was perfect ♥

Glad to know it's not just me, I find her way of speaking a bit irritating as well^^

I am still a child at heart, so I would love to read Korean Children's Favorite Stories ;)

Thanks for the contest!

She's great in Yoo Na's Street!

Glad to see that she seems to be getting a lot more movie roles recently! She's a promising actress and I'm curious to see how she'll develop in the future :)

There's a lot of people with different agendas in Secret Door, so it would probably be best to watch it when you're fully awake, because it's not as good when you miss the details ;) They will explain more about the maengui in later episodes, but basically it's a treasonous document by the Noron faction in which they say they want to replace the King with another one. Because they want to put Lee Do on the throne, they threaten him to either sign it and become King or get killed himself. You could also read the recap over at dramabeans, they're very helpful for the background info and to keep all the different people straight^^
I agree that it has the same feel as Tree with Deep Roots, it's just a very serious sageuk with lots of politics, but the development of the father/son relationship makes this a very engaging watch for me!

What a cliffhanger! Next sunday, please come fast!

Yes this is the real history^^ I guess they're just doing their own take on the story, much like Jang Ok Jung did with Jang Hee Bin who is usually the villlain. I really expect the Crown Prince's character to take a darker turn though when his conflict with the King gets bigger.

She's so good in Secret Door, but now that I see how many sageuks she's done that's no surprise^^

I dropped this after a couple of eps, so I'm not sure if you want to listen to my opinion but I don't recommend it. You could watch Return of Iljimae instead, if you want to see JIW in a historical drama ;)

I wouldn't have recognized Choi Min Soo if you hadn't mentioned him ;) I might watch this, but I'll wait to hear others' opinion when it finishes^^
