Posting any material with little or no relevent discussion accompanying it
No passion-induced flaming of each other because 'x said y sucked' etc.
Keep the expression hate of music individuals/groups to a minimal level
No 'pagetopping' in any form whatsoever, as it constitutes spam equal to posts similar to 'first'.
No vulgar fan fics or wet dream stories. It is creepy, weird, and it dehumanizes the people who you are here to celebrate/discuss.

Way to piss on the guys pony!
Either way, I'm looking for some good K-dramas to watch. Currently started with IRIS which is pretty cool... It may be pretty much everything as long as it's not too melo-dramatic. Good variety shows is also great.
I'm watching WGM for example, Sweet Potato Couple! (Seohyun & Yonghwa)... Any recommendations?
contribooting even though i only recently started watching K-Dramas, watched 49 days, paradise ranch and secret garden. I'd skip the latter if i were you, really annoying characters.
For variety shows you might want to check out Running man, its pretty fun.
For dramas I liked My Girlfriend is a Gumiho and Playful Kiss. I am about 3/4 of the way through 49 Days and it's pretty good so far. I didn't care for Secret Garden or Pasta.
Seconding Running Man for a good variety show. Isubs provides high quality subs for them. Also if you haven't watched Invincible Youth that was good too, but I assume you have since you are already watching WGM for the most boring couple ever, lol.

Depends what you are looking for , melodramas, dramas with humor, action dramas
Action drama's you should watch IRIS and Athena ofcourse.
Dramas with humor definitely.
Either way drama's(and assorted females)
Athena (Dat Ji ah) My Princess (Dat Kim Tae Hee IRIS(again Kim Tae Hee) God of Study is decent, its a bit made for like 10-16 audiences but it has PARK JIYEON SO ITS AUTOMATIC WIN My girlfriend is a gumiho is oke, it has Shin Min ah with a lil Hyomin on the side. Romance town is one running right now, its oke-ish Coffee house (with Eunjung). Uh if you have a soshified account with +50 posts(or know someone, or have other methods of getting subs) I suppose you can watch You My Destiny(With Yoona) Same with Cinderella Man Secret Garden ofcourse (With Yoo In Na) Boys over Flowers
And City Hunter ofcourse(but I think you get that by now), which you atleast should watch based solely upon Park Min Young alone.
All I could think off right now, I haven't really watched alot though so perhaps other people can give better advice

Lie to Me : Is decent for humor and romance. Secret Garden: Great until it gets very melo(But with Ha Ji Won and Yoo In Na its worth it) My Princess : Has a great main cast, though its a pretty decent drama Vineyard Man Oh! My Lady Personal Preference: Not sure about this one. Gumiho/Nine Tailed Fox
Action/Romance East of Eden City Hunter Athena Iris Iljimae

Love Story in harvard is good aswell if you can get past the cringy English, Smile you is also a fun drama.
Youve fallen for me is now also running(als known as Heartstrings) which is sort of decent from what I have seen so far.
City Hunter has been quite amazing thus far. I feel that if it keeps this up, it'll be my favorite drama up to this point. It has a very Batman-esque feel to it, at least from a kdrama perspective. Definitely give it a shot.

That's what I heard, which isn't all surprising since all the cast is gone.

All the production went to shits too. It's not just the acting.

Yeah Running man is pretty good. I'm also watching Heroes, but purely for PJY/IU so if you're not a fan I'd avoid, not really notable otherwise, and the subbing team is slow as fuck.
edit- while listening to Roly Poly just now I'm reminded of how much I fucking hate Hwayoung, not just cause she's a troll but also cause they gave her all the rap parts, which are all in english, and her english is the shittiest out of all of the idols I've heard, ever. It's not her fault that the rap in Roly Poly is both nonsensical and out of place, and I'd be willing to give her a pass on this one, but it was horrible in "why are you being like this" as well, where the rap fit in better (for a kpop song). Apparently CCM only put her in cause rest of T-ara's getting old for a girl group and he wants them to seem "young", which is the dumbest reason for inserting a member ever. Wish they'd give her the boot even though that won't happen.
edit2- Bubble pop is really growing on me. It's a dumb song, and if it was an american artist I'd hate it, but from kpop it's just what I want.

isn't Athena just a spin-off of IRIS.. I think IRIS S2 is airing late Q3 or Q4 this year :O
And yeah you are right Athena was not as good as IRIS sadly..

Making posts with even a scintilla of thought put into them and which contribute something to the topic. The standards are pretty low, and yet people still find ways to fall short.

Agreed, the whole cast for Invincible Youth is awesome. This is how I became a fan of Hyomin, she is freaking hilarious.

There's a reason... that was terrible as well lol. And apparently utterly forgettable.

IY is pretty good till a little before end of season 1, which is like 30ish episodes? SSF had good subs for it.
Alex/Shin Ae > Andy/Solbi = Crown J/In Young > Hyun Joong/Hwang Bo = Jo Kwon/Ga In > Kang In/Yoon Ji > Nickhun/Victoria = Yonghwa/Seohyun > Marco/Dam Bi >>>>>>> anything with Hyung Don (not even Taeyeon could make up for him)
