So I started watching kdramas to improve my Korean, and I googled, "good kdramas" or something. Suffice to say I ended up watching Stairway to Heaven (천 국의 계단)...all of it lol. It wasn't THAT bad, but some parts were so fricken frustrating that I almost wanted to punch a wall (e.g. super bitch mum or super bitch daughter doing ultra bitch things to mess up people's nice lives because they are so fucking selfish etc). Highlights of this was that there was a white dude who was fluent in Korean, who had a decent role. Also, 김태희 (super bitch daughter) was in there, and ever since then, I've had trouble removing her from my categorisation as 'person who deserves to die'. aaandd then I think I watched, Let's go to School, Sang-Doo! (상두야, 학교가자!) (main character is Rain, but I didn't know he was that big of a deal until later on. Then God of Study (공부의 신), which I liked because I was in Year 10 or 11 or something at high school then, so I empathised with going off to uni and friends etc (despite the fact that kdramas are way over dramatic with some stuff). The timeline of the rest is a bit fuzzy, so I'll just post them in any order. I downloaded 대장금, but got like 0.5 of an ep in and just gave up (tbh I'm usually one for giving shows a chance and watching further and stuff, but I guess that the historical stuff REALLY wasn't my thing). I also got 'I'm sorry, I love you' (미안하다 사랑한다) because it seemed to be really good from people's reviews, but alas, it didn't really take my fancy, despite it being filmed in Australia for a lot and having Australians in it and stuff (which was really enjoyable). Oh yeah, then IRIS (아이리스), which was pretty g. Then I downloaded Prosecutor Princess for my friend (she) and I figured I may as well watch it since I downloaded it. It was alright, actually wait, scratch that, now that I think about it, it was pretty good. Thennnn I think the English title is like 'Gae-In's personal preference'? (개인의 취향), which... I'm not sure why I watched it, I think I looked for popular ones at the time and that came up. Turned out alright. Full House at some point in there, because it's Full House I guess haha. And finally, Dream High, because I was being all super nostalgic about being about to finish high school at the time, so my emotions told me to watch it. And there might be one or two that I watched on websites that I can't remember atm. | ||

I just started resently but i have to say they have some good actors! the production quality is always really good and the short format without any filler makes me want to watch it in a day (which is a bad idea)^^ So, my favorites are all series with Yoon Eun Hye or/and Lee Min Ho but since City Hunter finished last week i dont know what to watch next =( I think about Secret Garden or You're beautiful, but maybe someone can recommend a more action or comedy heavy series? | ||

Gumiho Cinderella Man Dream High City hunter highkick 1, 2 BOF (forgot the rest... LOL) + Show Spoiler + but i gotta say city hunter is one of the best dramas i've seen recently. I love the idea (and a lil bit of history behind it with north korea) Great action scenes and alright romance. Lee min ho is awesome and park min young is just awesomer. | ||

-Very good, I can easily recommend this for anyone to watch. -Park Min Young (Na na) >>> Hara (Da Hye) *hides* -Not that much obnoxious crying (if you've seen Secret Garden, you'd know what I mean) -The ending was extremely short, perhaps forced, not enough closure on how everyone ends up. Yeah. Go watch it. | ||

Yeah. Go watch it. Don't worry, its true. I watched Prosecutor princess, its pretty oke-ish, not amazing but its decent. City hunter does get worse at the end, there is just not enough time to wrap things up and the end was not really satisfying plus they cut PMY's Nu ABO dance(WTF WHY WOULD YOU DO THAT?). | ||

I'm planning to watch City Hunter, how i sit? It's really, really good, though there is a lot of stupid episodes somewhere in the middle, where is not much going on. And the very first episode is kinda boring at the beginning, I think. But overall I must say this is going to be the first kdrama I am gonna finish (watching the last episode right now). | ||
