Name That Drama: Non-K-drama edition
Most of the Name That Drama entries have been Korean dramas (or thought to be Korean dramas — looks like quite a number of other Asian dramas have slipped through the ol’ memory cracks!) because, well, we know those best and that’s where we’re most helpful. But I think the ‘Beaniehood is pretty well-versed in... More »

Name That Drama: House-hunting, identity-swapping, prison babies
Seungri asks: There was this drama that I watched back in the early 2000′s, somewhere between 2002-2005. I don’t remember much except that there was a scene where the main guy is sitting at a playground at night and he looks up at the moon and sees the main girl’s face on it. He’s very... More »

Name That Drama: Kidnapping, drugs, and identical twins
Lots more Name that Drama ahead! I initially conceived this idea to help identify Korean dramas specifically, since that’s what we do on this here site.

Name That Drama: Murders, slackers, and (more) diseases
…though maybe “diseases” doesn’t have to be specified as an identifier, in that they are in so many dramas as a baseline plot element. Sad but true? Here is a new batch of puzzlers for you to identify: Name That Drama, go! asmaa asks: This drama isn’t old at all, it was probably made a... More »

Thing vs. Thing: Comic book heroes of sageukland
javabeans: If American comic book-dom is perpetually confronted with the question “Who’s better, Superman or Batman?” then dramaland is equally confronted with the question… “Who’s better, Superman or Batman?” Because really, they sorta all fall into those archetypes.

Name That Drama: Doppelgangers, blindness, ballerinas
Our first Name That Drama entry was pretty popular and prompted a bunch of new requests, so we’ve got a couple more head-scratchers for you to solve today! I’ve got a few guesses myself, but always find myself stumped by that ONE detail that doesn’t really fit. So take your crack at ‘em: Luna... More »

Name That Drama: High school rebels and tragic loves
Every now and again a reader will write in asking for help identifying an old drama—something watched in bygone days, or perhaps caught only in snippet form here and there. And while sometimes I’m able to figure it out (Young girl marries into fantasy monarchy? Goong, of course! Go Soo on the lam and out... More »
