I am now currently watching the final 30 minutes of Big as I write this. I just want to say this is, so far, the most confusing (not bad, not good, just... confusing) ending to a kdramaseries I have ever seen.

from what I can see so far... every character in the drama ends up heart broken with the exception of Gil Da Ran, who cheats on Seo Yoon Jae for Kyung Joon? Are we meant to root for them to end up together? All I feel is sorrow and pity for the guy trapped in the kids body while his wife gets lovey dovey with a high school student.....

I can't believe any writers would have the shamelessness to hard reset their own terrible script twice in one series by "one year latering". I can't believe any producers would let it happen. And that any actors would go with it. thanks for telling me what happened to 4 of the side characters and then ending.

Ok so Nicole is watching "A Gentleman's Affair" or something along those lines I think (Google translation of a tweet) and she looks quite hyped about the next episode or season, I'm not sure.

I'm thinking about watching A Gentleman's Affair in case our paths would cross, would give me a subject matter to talk about and relate to her, a possible blossom to our love flower.

So is it good, worth watching ? I have only watch two Korean dramas before, Killer Girl K and Salary Man, I enjoyed both, especially Girl K. Nicole's previous recommendation, 10cm per seconds, was pretty bad so I'm being cautious.

Oh yeah I think that could be it, she was hyped for something coming up, possibly the final. Amazing you say ? I guess I will have to look it up, does it have multiple seasons out already or is it the first one that's ending ?

Edit: Never mind that, a quick Google search answered my questions.

Well thanks for the feedback.

신사의 품격, known commonly to foreign Kdrama fans as A Gentleman's Dignity. Yes, it's worth the watch so far. Nicole isn't in it, so I'm not sure what you would get out of it, but it's pretty decent. Top drama in Korea ratings wise atm.

For Idol fans, Eunji of Apink fame has a mini drama starting where she plays a H.O.T. fan, called Reply 1997. Odd, because I remember reading somewhere she is considered a terrible actress amongst Apink fans from Apink News presumably. I think the tag line was something like "Can't even say tangerine without bursting into laughter".

Are Korean writers just really bad at wrapping things up? I think the only endings that I liked were Dream High 1 and Athena, I hated the Iris, Big, and I Do, I Do endings...ugh Dream High 2, I stopped watching after like episode 3, so baad compared to anything.

Yeah. Well the illustrations and artworks are great and really nice but the story to me was quite boring and dragging on and on... Maybe I just wasn't in the right mood when I watched it, I don't know, but it was quite boring :|
