Borrow Your Love was the drama I tried watching. Yes the girl just really can't act! lol

Yep dramas were the lead guy is a jerk is my guilty pleasure! :D

Classic melodramas...hmmmm

well one of my fave classic melodramas is called Bittersweet Life.

There also is:
-Lovers in Paris(Has a lead guy who is a jerk)
-Lovers(Has a lead guy who is a jerk again)
-Autumn in my Heart(Has one of my favorite 2nd lead guys of all time/who is a jerk)
-What happened in Bali (Crazy drama but I loved it for some reason)

Stairway to Heaven is like Makjang to a whole new level though. It did every cliche possible but you know what it was hard to stop watching. Almost every character in Stairway to Heaven probably deserve to be put in a psychiatric hospital. lol.

I would say go ahead and watch the drama if you want to see a lot of crazy people do acts of justice.

Yep SM does a pretty good job of misleading people...I saw the trailer for Mimi a few weeks ago and I thought "WOW...what is this? Wait is that Changmin! Only 4 episodes!! I'm in!" boy was I wrong.

That's how I felt also! I am a fan of Sonia Sui to and I liked the 2nd lead guy in this drama he was cool.

I found the cousin and husband annoying too...both of them just made me so upset when I watched the drama...later on I tried watching a drama with the cousin playing the lead in a different drama and I could not stand it.

Oh yep I loved the drama "The Pursuit of Happiness"...we really do have similar tastes!lol

Personally Stairway to Heaven was really a horrible drama to me. I mean in the drama the lead girl loses her memory and basically gets engaged to her half brother then her friend from when she was a kid comes and realizes its her and is like "You don't remember me?"

Oh and I see you have completed The Fierce Wife recently! That is one of my favorite T-dramas! What did you think of it?

Yep almost all my friends on MDL have different tastes but not you! lol

Thanks! I like my avi also. I didn't find many BOTC gifs also...I wonder why?

Yeah I tried watching ep 2 of Mimi today and it just wasn't working....the plot is just bleh.

Agreed the only reason I will ever finish watching it is just to see Changmin...and I'm not even sure if his handsome face can help me hold on any longer..I just don't know.

So many airing dramas right now which just aren't living up to expectations...Beyond the Clouds AND now Mimi.

That happens for almost every historical drama I watch and your right there always is a tragic ending!
Oh yes I love Sagueks! Agreed those are the best types a dramas. You just named 2 of my top favorite dramas...Sungkyunkwan and Arang and the magistrate. There should be more dramas like those two....I like happy dramas also which are full of romance.

Yep we do have similar taste don't we? lol

I will ask you for recs also :D

Aww thanks. You do too!

Oh and how is Mimi? I put Mimi on hold because I got a little confused mid way but what do you think of it?

Yep 0 romance. It seemed kinda boring to me too! lol Thats why I am putting it on hold...I might check some of the comments while its airing to see if it will improve at all.

I know!! BOTC is a daebak drama!! I changed my avi to support the drama...but I really want to have the scene where he kisses her after giving her the unsweetened cake...I really want that as my avie but no one has uploaded it yet.

I agree entirely. I don't usually watch historical dramas also but for some reason because everyone was raving about Empress Ki I decided why not? Later on I found out that Empress Ki is a hard drama to get through...it's painful to watch all of these nice characters being turned into evil characters. I don't care what anybody else says about this drama (It may be addicting) but I certainly don't feel happy after watching it. I always end up feeling depressed.

Oh yes I love Kim Sun AH!!

I have only seen Miura Haruma in Last Cinderella..I'm not big on J-dramas but I know of him.

Agreed you can't tell everything about an actor from 1 drama or movie.

I'm watching In a good way, Bride of the century, and Emergency Couple. Those are the main ones.

I put Golden Rainbow on hold and I am kinda watching Can we love? (I skipped a few evil sunmi episodes)

Let's Eat I am also watching. What do you think of Let's Eat right now?

Agreed. lol.

I would say with Empress Ki you should look else where for the time being..because who knows it could turn sour and pull a "everybody dies" trick on us...the show has already tried killing of a few characters but hasn't succeeded yet. Remember I said yet because I have this weird feeling....that something is going to just kill a lot of main characters..but whatever I might be wrong.

I would say Let's Eat is sometimes entertaining and sometimes not. Its a hit or miss with that show.

Yes!! Oh and I love your new avie (Bride of the century)...I think I am going to change my avie to a bride of the century picture too! Show my support!!

No Beyond the Clouds has had 0 romance from ep 1 on to ep 6 unless you include the guy who was murdered. lol. Anyway I am going to wait for a few more episodes to see if it picks up the pace..if it doesn't I'm probably going to drop it.

Happy Birthday!

This drama ...has got me hooked. I guess I'm hedging my bet by saying this will be my favorite show. I've only seen 4 episodes but it just feels like this is THE drama I have been waiting for.

Yep at the moment Bride of the Century is my favorite airing drama. I kinda am hegding my bet because I have only seen 4 episodes...but I have faith that this will be one of the best airing dramas very soon.

What about you?

Yep IAGW is a great show!! Did you know they are going to make a movie out of the show?

Empress Ki is so so....I mean its really addicting but it's like bad addicting because some of the things which happen in the drama never would happen in that day in age...it;s hard to stop watching though.

Let's Eat is really good but make sure to have lots of food in your fridge before you watch it lol.

Bride of the Century has just got on my top ten list so I am just hedging my bet that the rest of the drama will be as good as the 4 episodes I have seen.

Beyond the Clouds reminds me a lot of NIce Guy. It's a very very heavy melo which is sometimes fun.

Yep well I bought into that sci-fi BS believing that the drama would redeem it self some way or another but...it never did. I guess I felt I had invested SO much time that it was to late to turn back.

There is 2 male leads who both are pursuing the female lead....basically its a love triangle...the funny part is though both male leads have been still thinking she is a boy...so both of them are in love but with her as a guy....it takes a while for either of them to figure it out...as of right now (Even at ep 40) I still am unable to tell who will end up with who which makes this drama even more exciting then it already is.

Oh and yes there is lots and lots of Makjang!

I would say go ahead you won't be disappointed...and if you are looking for romance or makjang this is the drama to watch trust me. lol.

Happy Birthday unnie!!

Happy Birthday Oppa!!!

ahh I see. oh I know MAL but I've always been more of a asian drama person myself.
Thats harsh though your having to start all over...well good luck then!

Also vdy and Biehl91 are you both new to MDL? I haven't seen or heard of either of you before....if not that's ok to.

I just would like to say one thing I really don't enjoy fighting over k-actors and k-actresses. I find it to be not necessary half the time....we all came to MDL to talk about our love of asian dramas. Let that be it. Not fighting over who is the "best" k-actress or k-actor.

I try to not be biased but I am only human just as you are and humans can be biased. I love and respect all of the people on MDL and I believe you do to. So lets just put this Doctor Stranger drama to rest. I am a fan of Lee Jong Suk....no I am not exactly a supporter of Jin Se Yeon but that's ok. Everyone is entitled to their own opinions.

A few weeks ago it came out on this app I have on my ipod touch clearly its not there anymore and I was miss informed on that side of the story. As I said before it was only a rumor.
