Glad that I did cuz I also love Thank You. Can't tell you how many times I have watched TY. It does make you eyes rain but leave you with a smile so true. My husband and I are still pretty new to kdrama. We both are loving it. He prefer to watching sageuk while I rather watch romantic comedy. He love to read about the history of all the characters. After watching Yi San he started to read up on its history which lead him to The King and I and how good it is and have been trying to track it down to watch it but unfortunely unable to find. I think he knows more about korean dynasty history than some korean I think hehehe. Right now he's loving Queen Seon Deok. If someone happen to read this and know where I can tell him to watch The King and I please send me an email at one more pls @ g mail dot com. Thank you so very much. Now I will go watch Devil cuz I have been looking to see what to watch next but nothing look interesting enough. hehehe. Here I come Devil......

I can't believe I only read this now. You and I have the same taste in kdramas. Like you I tend to not like romance unless its really well done or it happens to be supporting the story line. I have to say I thought 2007 was a good years for Kdramas. Not only did we get White Tower which is my pick as the best drama of the year in terms of story line and acting but we also got the Devil with the very surprising performance from Joo Ji Hoon. I was very dubious about his acting chops and he seemed to be struggling a little bit in the beginning with all the veteran actors as a contrast but his acting just kept on improving as he got more comfortable and got to know the character better. My 3rd pick for this year has to be Thank You.The chemistry between Jang Hyuk and his Dr gf was so intense I am not afraid to say I cried as well in the first episode. The acting all around was amazing especially from the grandfather, bom and Gong Hyo Jin. Sadly nothing as exciting in 2008. I would like to start off by commending you on your taste.

The ending scene blew me away though - so I concede that MAYBE he has some acting talent. ;) Thanks for the list of other dramas! I will definitely try some out.

Thanks much for your review, it was fun to read. I was introduced to Korean dramas by total boredom. I wasn't finding much in the way of american tv that I thought was worth watching. The thing I really like about the dramas that I have watched was that they had FEELING. HUMAN FEELING and a story to them. They keep me interested. You can pour all the money and special effects you want into a movie and it will be one giant flop if you don't have a good story to go with that movie. And I hope that doesn't happen to my Korean dramas. I am seeing signs of it. I guess there are only so many stories to tell, but the Koreans are sooo good at it, and I hope it lasts. Its great to see Korea get recognition for their dramas. I love watching Korean period pieces. Its fascinating to me. Although I can see why Korean people might not be as excited about their history as an outsider would. Hello! Thanks much for your review, it was fun to read.

Never thought I bumped into you here. Actually I don't watch that many Korean dramas or dramas in general although Coffee Prince was good fun! It's cool to have stumbled across this if only to discover that you have a blog! And I never knew you were (1) Korean (2) didn't like romance?! I remember reading an Escaflowne fic you wrote about a blind hitomi? That was quite beautiful writing :) Anyway glad to bump into you!

I kept waiting for some romance to happen between BJW and Sujini and it never happened. I must've missed it when I blinked. Anyways, I am an ardent fan of DJG but could not for the life of me get into Jumong no matter how hard I tried. I am currently watching Yi San which I really like because there are a lot of similarities in cinematography and characters to DJG. Love the director! Another sageuk I want to check out is the new one with Kang Ji Hwan. I'll watch pretty much anything he's in. I'm kind of watching In-Soon Is Pretty but it sure is dragging a lot. Not much happens other than the same old sad "poor me" I'm so misunderstood story. Sigh. What a yawner Legend was.
