Korean Titles Involving Any Japanese Cast/Crew
I will be using this list as a part of CONNECT THE TITLES CHALLENGE
I need some dramas and movies to switch in between Japan and Korea and this list would be helpful in achieving that.
I will not pre-plan my titles but will watch out for these by adding some of them in PTW. In case I encounter them in any cast's profile it would be useful.
