Han Suk-kyu

Speaking of which, it seems that the creator of the list can moderate their list. Just saw it on MDL feeds ;)

Yeah, I figured that, since your description is pretty specific.

Cursory look at this list told me that some of these people aren't even idols.

Yoo Seun-ho, Park Shin-hye, and Nam Da-reum used to be child actors. Shin Hye-sun, Park Bo-young, Lee Min-ho, Park Bo-gum, Ji Chang-wook, Park Min-young, Jang Dong-yoon--all started off either as model or actor.

[Let's see how many people get that ;) ]

It's on Sony GEM; someone recorded the episodes and then uploaded the audio-video files (with subtitles) online. I think they had it up to episode 4 so far.

The only fansubs for this drama that I know of is in Indonesian, and they've had the subs up to episode 7.

Thank you, Mio and OldAnimeLady, for this excellent article!

I'm looking forward to Kotaki Brothers and Shikuhakku (Nogi Akiko + Yamashita Nobuhiro, that's pretty much like a dream come true for me) and Raise de wa Chanto Shimasu. As for the rest, I'd probably check out any drama that gets subbed ;)

Thank you so much for this. Would love to see recaps for other award shows in the future.

Now, I'm off to add yet another stuff to my ever growing plan-to-watch list.

Hey, thank you so much for this. I found this drama super hilarious, so I can only imagine how funny it would be for Koreans, since these Easter eggs must've been familiar to them.

Thank you, OldAnimeLady. I hope more people would be more interested in watching this drama, reading your article.

The dialogue is absolutely brilliant. Arguably one the the most well-written, if not the best, Jdramas this year. The last time I enjoyed seeing characters talking round and round like this (when they were really talking about something OTHER than what they seemed to be talking about) was in Saigo Kara Nibanme no Koi, I think.

If you're a working person, you're going to find a lot of relatable stuff here. However, the middle part of this drama (I'd say around episode 6 to 12) was very tiresome to watch. Like previous commenters said, the story just dragged on and on. Repetitive without any real progress. It picked up again from episode 13 onwards, though.

If you decide to watch, just use the fast forward button as needed.

Check out d-addicts forum. The person working on it posted their subs there. You'd need to register to access the subs, though.

Almost none. There's a very slight possibility of romance between two secondary characters, but I don't think it's enough to satisfy you if romance is your focus.

kisskh is a cataloguing website, not a video streaming website like Netflix and the like.

A heads-up for my Southeast Asian friends. This drama will be available on Sony GEM later this month (November).

I wouldn't call myself an Arashi fan, but I'm really happy to hear this announcement.

Thank you for compiling this, Ceki. I've only watched four out of all these dramas, but simply based on that small sample, it seems that they really did choose winners worthy of the awards.

As of episode 3, they're really just roommates. It did seem that Sakura-sensei is attracted to him, but isn't particularly interested in having any romantic relationship because she's afraid of being hurt.

Yes, it's a shame because the show started off so well. The domestic rating is getting smaller by each episode, so I guess it's not just us who are exasperated by it.

It's not fansubbed, but available legally on Viu. People then would rip the subtitles and upload them on Subscene.
