I think everything's been really fun here! Dramabeans has rolled out so many new features since its debut that I don't know how it's even physically possible, =).

But, if you were looking for more topics, =P, I say more on culture, language, and history! And, more recaps (general/episodic) on dramas older than DB!

(I also vaguely remember some kind of review/post about the Japanese drama, Hana Yori Dango, right around when Boys Before Flowers was about to be broadcasted. It surprised me that you guys had time to watch dramas outside of Korea, so I think it would be really interesting to read your thoughts and ideas on non-Korean dramas/movies. Of course, they would somehow be related/linked to Kdramas!)

Congratulations on the success of your 5-year anniversary celebration! Both of you, JB and Girlfriday and your guest recappers have all worked hard in sharing your passion for kdramas and I am very grateful. This year, I wish all of you good health, wisdom and happiness because for one, I want to see all of you continue the awesome job you've been doing of recapping/reviewing more dramas. I may not always bond with a drama but I've discovered more dramas I do like from ypur many reviews/recaps. Great job, you guys and keep it up!

I hope to see more of The Moon That Embraces The Sun's recaps soon!! That's pretty much all I'm looking forward to right now, haha.

Also, can't wait for you guys to continue churning out humorous and delightful podcasts!! Fight on, dramabeans!

Even though I am very thankful and love everything you guys have done for us, I wish we had a little bit more movie recaps. However, I do understand if you guys don't have enough time for this so nonetheless thank you!!

I would really like to see more movie recaps.

I would really love some golden oldies recaps, both movies and dramas. Even if you couldn't do blow-by-blows of every episode like you do for the current shows, if you could give overviews in one two or three pieces it would really help those of us who are late to the game to find good stuff to watch. :D

I would love to see a playlist page for all the amazing music recappers enjoy! I've downloaded and loved many songs that have been put on dramabeans and would love a chance to see it in its entirety! Other than that I have loved reading recaps of my favorite dramas and variety shows and am content with the site as it is :) Looking forward to a year packed with good dramas! Dream High 2 don't let me down! Ojakgyo Brothers finish well! Loving Tae Hee and Ja Eun :)

Honestly, Dramabeans is great the way its run. But, some more drunken podcasts wouldn't hurt :) Thanks for helping us drama addicts! Happy Lunar New Year!

I really love dramabeans site the way it is! A wonderful variety of drama recaps, variety show recaps, celebrity news, award show pictures, movie news, and even some music news! I love it! As a lot of the other commenters have said, movie recaps would be an awesome addition!

I would love to see more movie reviews, as everyone else has already mentioned. Also, I think you should post recommendations for old, but worthy dramas. :-) There are tons of dramas that began and ended before dramabeans, but I don't even know where to begin.

Also, I'd love to read more about Korean culture. The last post was way too long ago. :-( I think it would be really interesting if you included a topic about Korean food as well. I always start drooling every time someone eats in the drama. *__*

Anyways, HAPPY FIVE YEARS, AND I HOPE FOR MANY MORE FIVE-YEAR-ANNIVERSARIES TO COME. ♥

I really love this site and feel that conceptually it needs no new changes but I would like to make a recap suggestion. Since you guys have been recapping variety shows it would be cool to see a recap of Hello Baby with MBLAQ only because they are CRAZY. I watched them in Idol Army and have never cried laughed like that before.

I like MBLAQ but there is no other way of saying this but they are really stupid. They are like the Jersey Shore of Korea (without the sex and alcohol of course) but just as ridiculous and addicting. I'm not a fan of Jersey Shore but after watching MBLAQ in Idol Army I can't say anything about people who do watch it. Shear stupidity is fun to watch and could be fun to recap *fingers crossed*.

Anyways, love you guys and Dramabeans

This has been fun! Although a regular reader, I had never posted a comment until this month...I guess that shows you which camp I'm in. =P

I enjoyed the addition of a movie reviewer. I also enjoy the podcasts, and I'm hopeful that perhaps someday a video one will get added? I also like that you recap variety shows, even if you do not continue to recap them regularly. I have been introduced to some that I would not necessarily have known about. Thank you! I also enjoy the interviews that you had translated in the past, but don't see as much of nowadays. I would love (and I am sure you would, too) if you were able to personally interview some of the drama actors, directors, writers, etc. Some of them have to have heard about this wonderful site and the many fans that it has generated! We must know firsthand how they really are! Please do this for us, okay? And maybe just start with Lee Minho.

Thank you and congratulations again! Looking forward to many more years of addiction!

because i am utterly shallow and not afraid to admit it (especially now that i've had a drink or two- who's counting anyway?), i would love to see a weekly Abs photo post to make every fangirl/noona/ahjumma reader here ridiculously happy.

other than that, i would not change a thing on DB. you girls rock! *hic!*

Movie recaps yahooooo! Eye Candy Nekkidness! Variety shows! Gratuitous Shower Nekkidness! Interviews! Bedroom Nekkidness! Bio of good PD and writers! All Around Nekkidness!!!!

Take your pick whahahahaha but I strongly recommend you choose those with Nkkdnss...(fans self while imagining DB turning into an R rated site)

Well you did ask and are open to crazy ideas.

Hmm...Like everyone else said, more movie reviews would be great, but I think you guys have done amazing with the drama recaps. I think putting up posts about K-indie or just non-mainstream Kpop (since there's plenty of sites on that already) would be a really cool option too.

Either way, you guys are amazing! <3

Happy Lunar New Year!
Congrats to all the winners!

For 2012, I would like to see more movie review and recap. I would also like to see more recap from Santa. I like to see more drunken podcast. The last one was such a hoot. :)

Basically, just keep doing what you are doing. I love Dramabeans regardless. :)

I think if you could add movie recaps/reviews, that'd be awesome! Love you drama beans! <3

I wonder have you girls went to Korea. I means visit all the drama/movies shooting locations? For eg: The German's village in Trouble Couples, and was in 1N2D. Or French village in Beethoven Virus and was in Running Man wit Nickhun and Taecyon? .. I wonder what was your girls own opinion about the places?

I remember you also did blog and lists all g.o.d's songs in a beautiful sentences (I love g.o.d) and that makes me keep listening to the old kpop songs. Wonder if you have any others old/new kpop songs that you like and can be perfectly fit as drama/movie OST. Perhaps you can suggest one. ^^

Happy Anniversary Dramabeans (being followed this websites since Javabeans time) .. what a long journey. and Happy Chuseok, happy chines new year. May this dragon year will bring more happiness in ourlife and your life too.. Happy holiday.

Oh yeah could I please have the playlist that went into the ipod... pretty pleassssse (does the noona pout wiggle)

Ha! Sure enough, in the first three comments, two people suggested movie reviews. *g*

What I'd most like to see is a feature that feel a bit by the wayside not too long after it was introduced (which I do not begrudge at all -- you both do so much to keep this website running and updating regularly as it is that I feel a little bad even making this suggestion, haha), which is: recaps of the first episodes of older dramas. Your recap of the first episode of Delightful Girl Chun-Hyang is what gave me the last push I needed to watch it, and in my search for older dramas to watch, I haven't found terribly many reviews or commentaries that help in figuring out what to watch and what not to watch.

(Hahaha, my suggestion is so selfish! Sorry.)

Happy birthday, Dramabeans! I might not comment too often, but that doesn't mean I'm not here every day, religiously (and perhaps a bit creepily) reading nearly every post - except, of course, for recaps that might spoil things (unless I want those things spoiled) (it's a complicated relationship). Dramabeans is far and away one of the most informative and entertaining of drama websites, and my greatest wish is that you can manage another five years. Thanks for everything. :)

Happy Birthday again Dramabeans!!

You guys have done great and thank you so much! Please continue to feed our drama obsessions...it's a great drug...how else are we going to escape real world, no? Love the rantings and analysis and side comments that crack me up b/c I'm having the same thought! Please keep up the substance...more drama and analysis, less kpop?

A crazy idea...how do your legions of followers voluntarily contribute to Dramabeans?!

A less crazy idea: a list of all your "watched/seen" dramas with javabeans ratings/rantings?

BTW, was listening to your podcast#10 while writing this, and I'm actually digging the Rain song?! The dude's got a quite jazzy/small bar-cafe voice! Imagine...javabeans and girlfriday, at a table giggling over dramas w/ Rain swaying at the small step-up stage. WAIT! Does Rain even sway?! Probably right after he does some crazy twitching dance....and I don't know about javabeans and girlfriday giggling and sitting at a table in a small bar where Rain is serenading them(depending on how many drinks they've had)....I'll leave that up to their imaginations?

I can honestly say that your site is the awesomest site ever! so I'm okay if you keep it just the way that it is.(you know how in Bridget Jones Mark Darcy says "to Bridget just as she is"?I say to dramabeans !just as it is)
Nevertheless,it's always fun reading the posts that javabeans and girlfriday write together like the script doctor for myung-wol the spy or the promos for salaryman.
So maybe more of those:)

One of the main reasons I enjoy your recaps and other posts (even by guesties) is your take on the drama while giving us information on Korean culture itself. I may be part of a small group, but I enjoy documentaries and have watched all of them available on dramafever (they are so good). What I would like to see is something you want to talk about (culture wise) to help readers understand dramas a bit more. Most of us know why "skinship" is limited compared to say.. the United States. It makes me curious what other differences there are that I could learn more about. I'm honestly not sure if I am getting my idea across correctly.

DRAMABEANS :) All the work you do is amazing and I have no complaints...BUT I do have one suggestion. I think it would be amazing to post actor/actress profiles once in a while, in memoriam of their past works. When you mention some brilliant actors/actresses like Lee Jung Jae I'm afraid some readers don't know who he/she is well enough! Would be great! But keep up the goodness ^^

Maybe more polls (similar to the end-of-the-year ones) and more older drama recaps. You girls are the best. Hope DB has an awesome year and many more extravagant years to come!

love this site!

I would love to see more variety show recaps and celebrity profile/interviews!

cheers!

I would love to see more movie reviews/recaps. Happy new year:)

Classic drama reviews (Feelings, Sandglass, etc.)!

A gallery featuring your fave stars and screenshots from dramas, plus kdrama/kculture memes

This site is perfect as it is but I would love to see more articles about korean culture.
Two years ago I discovered K-Dramaland and fell in love with Korea, but since I never actually went there, my friends and parents are always loughing at me, telling me that you can't love a country/culture just by watching tv shows and movies. ... which is true!
So here would be my request : would it be possible once a month or once every two weeks to have a post about korean culture (food, where do they like to travel, the different towns in Korea, korean litterature and history, how is it that korean children are always playing 50 different instruments (!^^), what is real among all the drama clichés, the north/south thing, etc.
Thanks and... Happy 5 years !

Thank you dramabeans and girlfriday for this blog! Quirky yet informative, in-depth commentaries regarding dramas, variety shows, movies and more. Though I don't necessarily agree with you all the time, it makes me realize the bigger picture outside my bias and you guys have presented the most reliable k-drama blog out in the internet! A BIG THANK YOU! <3

I've really enjoyed you 1 night 2 days recaps and how you write them in conversation form. It makes us readers feel that we are just having a normal talk with the bloggers. Unfortunately, 1 night 2 days is ending soon. :(

I wish for you take on the Season 2 of 1night2days! Or if it doesn't meet our expectations, if you could take another variety talk show, like Strong Heart, Win Win, Infinity Challenge, SNL Korea, that would be DAEBAK.

Personally, I'd would love Dramabeans and Girlfriday to infinity if they pick on Strong Heart. :))

Thank you again!

Congratulations on your 5th Anniversary!!!

I truly appreciate reading up on your insightful recaps of the KSeries i'm totally in love with!

i also love how you have the DL Link to the songs of the day! awesome!!!

i always look forward to the voting for the best series by the end of the year!!!

Can't say thank you enough!!! you're all DAEBAK!!!

khamsamhida!

Omg! That's one huge giveaway, and thats gona land on mah' hands! Yayks iv been a long time follower but this s my 1st tym commenting.
Errrr' youve always been providing us readers fullfiling dose of our fave dramas. Thrs rili nothing more to ask for, all im looking for is ryt here on ur site.. But since you ask, i hv no right to not answer. I wanna see more of movie reviews. Hikhik im a huge korean movie fan, and i would like to know your thots about them.

PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE recap Princess' Man. To me, Princess' Man is my favorite korean drama ever, and I want to see my favorite bloggers' input on every episode. It would make the memory of Princess' Man all the more precious. I re-read the series review over 50 times, PLEASE CONSIDER THIS!!

Also, maybe a section where you guys rate the actors based on their dramas..like the drama ratings. That would be fun.

You guys are perfect the way you are, and this is my all-time favorite website. Thanks for all the hard work.

Happy Lunar New Year you guys!

Thanks for all the hard work. I love this site the way it is but: not only does it have drama recaps and reviews, it also has korean entertainment news. I guess on that note, keep up translating for us non-koreans news about our favorite dramas, actors etc. I also appreciate those photo shoots that you guys sometimes put up. If you guys are looking for something new to feature maybe you should do actor profiles? And I think a lot of people have already mentioned movie reviews.

Anyways, keep up the hard work ladies! You guys are the best!

i would love to hear more about the dramas you grew up watching. as a relatively new person to kdramas, i really want to learn about the older ones that are worth my time. so basically you would each summarize the qwerks, jokes, etc that made that drama special to you in one post
. nothing super lengthy, and obviously in true DB fashion. you guys are super aweawesome and i take your opinions to heart since time and time agsin I've come to agree with your takes on dramas. what can i say? we all have good taste :p

I would love to see more great post of the houses of celebrities & their lives off-cam!

I just wanted to say that I love your blog, and I wish you many more birthdays to come.

More movie reviews, reactions and summaries, please!

When posting magazine editorials of HOT MEN, I would like to see less of what they're wearing?! Wait, I guess you can't control that? I take it back, I am sure you can. I've heard about the super powers you both have strip stuff away. Laughs.

thank you so much for everything :D
dramabeans is the best site I know for recaps, upcoming drama info, etc.
It would be great if you guys could do more of commenting on things together, like back and forth. You two are just so funny; your convos always crack me up.

Wow....that's a nice grand prize. Drools for hubby.

I would like to see some movie recaps. There seem to be a few that look good from ur posts. It would be super if you could do that.

Also, happy lunar new years everyone!!

Movie Reviews and More Sitcoms Please...

It would be fun to read your recaps plus hilarious side comments about movies..:)

I usually read first on your recaps before actually deciding to watch a particular drama and I have never been disappointed based on your suggestions and comments about that series so I would also love to hear about your opinions on various movies..:)

What I want to see on DB in 2012...hmm...can you just give that 7-inch Samsung Galaxy Tablet to me...just kidding..(but i think you know i really mean it right?..anyway..more music please...i always like kdrama with its ost..from drama ost i found so many good singer and song (i know i sooo left behind..sob)..i know you already did great job with ost info and i'd like to see more in 2012...keep up the good works..happy new year..

I would love to see some recaps on variety shows/talk shows. Buuut...I suppose that is extensive. Regardless, I love my variety shows.
