How come there are no reviews yet?
:P

Takeshi Kaneshiro & Mukai Osamu! <3

I've updated my PTW list. :D

So far it was very entertaining. I have to see it until the end to be able to rate it but so far I like it.
I don't know if you watched but try Atashinchi no Danshi.
It is a bit weird in some aspects but nonetheless it is also fun. :D

I'm currently watching Hotaru no Hikari before that I've seen Karamazov no Kyodai and before that Papadol, Rich Man Poor Woman...

Recently I've been more into J-dramas too. For some reason they are more fun; without annoying story dragging and cliched plots, but like you said it's more than just that.

So far, out of all dramas I've seen I think T-dramas have the most passionate kisses.
As for K-dramas I'm not saying there are no good kisses but recently I haven't seen much of those.

Hahaha.
I can intellectually understand how you feel even though I'm not a real fan girl type. That's why my brain usually argues with the curious, stubborn (and slightly obsessive compulsive) side of me that must finish everything it started with very few exceptions (like Playful Kiss).

Thanks.
I will try it. As long as it is fun I'm in for a ride. :D

I like Ha Ji Won, Shin Min Ah and Yoon Eun Hye, but I would put also Kim Sun Ah.
She is amazing actress not to mention beautiful and charismatic. I watched almost all of her dramas and movies.

I remember that movie and I love it too. :D

I think this will be very interesting.

I admire Chu Man. She fell number of times but she always got up.

Hung Lynn was really good as our Material Queen. Not to mention that she is gorgeous. I think she could be easily picked as one of the most beautiful women of the world.

I also enjoyed Take 2 more than the original.
Though I don't consider them as sequel and original because they were so different that there is no reason to compare them.

Nice article.
And it would be lovely if there could be a part two but now with self-admitting 'gold diggers' like in Material Queen (though not a K-drama) or Couple or Trouble (she isn't exactly a gold digger since she is rich but if she weren't she would have been). There aren't much dramas like these but it's lovely to see sometimes something different.

Wow!
Amazing article!

That's why I'm asking. I had no idea.
Though I thought that because it became cliche that it is something that exists in real life (where there is smoke there is usually fire) but I don't know to what extent. That's why it would be great if there is someone here from Korea who could write an article about this and enlighten us.

As for the movie I've put it on my ptw list. Next time when I'm in the mood for serious movies I'll watch it. Thanks.

I do agree with the list but there are so much more dramas with even more terrible crimes.

Since we are on this note reality vs dramaland, there is one motif in drama that puzzled me so much. When; in Full House Han Ji Eun's friends sold her house, in Shut Up: Flower Boy Band Im Soo Ah is chased by debt collectors and lives alone still underage without supervision, etc.
Is that possible and to what extent?

And are those loan sharks really that common in both Korea and Japan? Can somebody just name you as their guarantor without your consent or just by being family?
It would be great if somebody could answer these questions and explain what is real and what is dramaland's creation.

That's the first drama that comes to my mind when somebody mentions toilet scene. lol

And I do agree that west shouldn't shy away so much from basic human needs.
Though toilets are used sometimes but more like gathering place than for it's real purpose, like someone somewhere said in western movies and shows when you are home you never need to visit the loo but when you are at work you spend half of your working time there chatting with your colleagues.

I agree with Go Mi Nyeo (though I would put her in second place) and Oh Ha Ni. Those two are unsurpassed but other female leads you mention for me are in the same category as almost all other stupid female characters like Shin Chaegyung (Gong), Heo Yi Nok (Hong Gil Dong)...

Thanks for this info. XD
Hong sisters have lots of weak females in their dramas and Gong Hyo Jin fits that part. But it would be lovely if they surprise us.
I'll probably watch it for So Ji Sub if he stars in it, that is. XD
And hopefully comedy.
