The last drama I watched was "That Winter the Wind Blows" (which I quite enjoyed actually), and looking for something like that and/or a comedic one. Thanks. | ||

My sister has seen the serie Dating Agency Cyrano. She really liked it. I have seen a few episodes aswell. It's pretty nice in my opinion. | ||

It got fixed sometime after I made that post, probably by what Miefer suggested, after I re-enabled it after watching Viki. Ads are only annoying for me since I watch kdrama with my friends on the large TV with my laptop hooked up, and ads just really ruin the mood sometimes. I'm getting near done with Flower Boy Next Door and I'm going to look for some more dramas to watch with my friends. Is Heirs any good or is it just a buffed up cast line with a half decent plot? Just seems too good to be true with the cast lineup they got going. | ||

Just wanted to say I started watching TEN (Special Affairs Team Ten). Aside from the title's cornyass name it's actually one of the best shows I've watched. It's a psychological/criminal thriller that focuses on one incident per episode, but also sprinkles in tidbits of an overarching unsolvable case that culminates in the final chapter. There's a female and male lead but the subtle amounts of romance are sidelined for the crimes themselves, and it's great that the show is able to overcome kdrama cliches. Unfortunately, it still caves in to laughable dramatic stares and postures but that's almost negligible. I forgot to mention that it's a midnight show on a nonmajor channel, so a lot of censored scenes in regular dramas (blurred out knives, etc) are fully displayed. One common reoccuring theme about the show that fascinates me is not just the obscene gory nature of the crimes, but the way that the 'criminals' are presented. These people are almost always the product of inequalities in society, or blatant injustices simply cannot be resolved in court because of the way the justice system functions. For example, without spoiling too much, they explore the concepts of bystander guilt and its consequences. The plots are extremely nuanced and never seems to overlook small details. I find myself turning over the crime in my mind several days after I watch an episode and understanding the significance of an offhand comment, or understanding why the investigators came up with a certain conclusion. Obviously, the larger, most pertinent reasoning for solving a case are clearly displayed, but oftentimes in a show there are moments where the audience questions 'wtf where'd they come up with that'. In most dramas you're left to your own devices and usually chalk shit up to 'oh it's a drama, I guess I'll suspend my normal cognitive functions', but there's rarely a time that I had to do this. I still have 6 episodes of the first season to watch, but what I've seen thus far thoroughly impresses me. I guess it helps that the cast is fantastic, and Jo An is cute as hell. Kim Sang Ho does his thing and he's never subpar at his role, but it's the writing that stands out to me the most. | ||
