Yep, because of Mi Young running away with Daniel, I so enjoyed this one so much better. So wish they had shown…
I did like the characters on the island very much !!!.... and u may be right about the side characters... This was my 1st T-drama and I saw it long ago , but the island characters and the secretary left an indelible impression...
I strongly disagree about "Comparing Mi Yong and Xin Yi"... you like that Xin-Yi is "Pitiful".... but .... I was very impressed w/ Jang Na-Ra and how she portrayed Mi-Yong...... instead of playing a pathetic weak woman ...
she portrayed the weak , meek , obedient , naive , doormat "Post-It Girl" as a soft-spoken , super-nice , sensitive and sensible woman ... she gave her DIGNITY !!! .... so she was sympathetic... but Not Pathetic !!!!
I very much prefer post-it girl in the K-version.
I really like those super-Ugly track-suits in "Secret Garden"...
...... it is one of the details that make this show Wonderfully Special ! ... despite having a ridiculous plot line and lots of cliches.... it is the little details like this that make it such a Joy to watch. XD
I really liked some aspects of Lee Jun Kai minus the Stockholm syndrome.
I don't think it is Stockholm syndrome.... b/c Before he entrapped her, she loved him and knew he was vengeful....--->>> she knew Before she married him that he killed her father... .... she married him anyway b/c she loved him......
but that was the one thing I didn't like in the story : she was very weak for a long time, even when he wanted the divorce , she asked "why?"..... only towards the end did she regain herself !
Thanks for the article.... I will watch some of ur recommendations!
also .... BEWARE !!! .... for "Le Jun Kai"... there is a version where someone Re-Edited the scenes into chronological order and put them together into 1-1/2hr movie !!!...
Do NOT watch That Version !!! ... --->>> it takes away from the Artistic Value of the Editing and Directing of the show !
How does one find web dramas online? I've never watched one before
"Le Jun Kai" is on both YouTube and Viki... .... But BEWARE : ... someone re-edited into chronological order all the scenes and put all the episodes together into a 2hr movie... ...Do NOT watch That Version !!! ... ...it takes away from the Artistic value of the Editing and Directing of the show !
One of my 1st Chinese films, saw it long ago.... But I never forgot it...It left a deep impression..... I can still remember some of the imagery (Zhang Yimou is a master at it )...Visually it is stunning ! ..... and the story about the women is poignant .... (and I learned a lot about the culture) .... I loved it !!
I liked her in "Sawan Biang" .... she is very cute...and not a bad actress for a debut !
Being a self-absorbed antagonist, like the role she had in "Full House" , does Not suit her at all !!
She is better at playing Sweet , Nice, Spunky , Sassy, Cute and Lovable characters .
Loved this drama so much. Couldn't believe Jang Hyuk was in a romantic comedy or that he and Jang Na Ra were to…
u r absolutely correct !! .... "They should win Awards for this!!!"
Jang Hyuk and Jang Na Ra did an excellent job .... I always knew Jang Hyuk is an awesome actor, and he can be very funny .... great job creating Lee Gun's whacky but strong persona ..... .... and Surprisingly .....
--->> I am so impressed w/ Jang NaRa.....she did an amazing job giving dignity and power to this soft-spoken , meek woman w/out seeming pathetic !
and they both were great at emoting all the complex emotions !!!
If anyone finds any of his dramas subbed , Please , Please list the link here !
The only drama I found w/ complete subs is "Best Time" ....
EDIT: (someone found "Too Late to Say I Love You" w/ french subbed) . The link is on that page :)

Both he and Janine Chang did a great job w/ the acting !

that is just one of the fun things in this version...loved it !!!
