The racial supremacy is my number 1 pet peeve. I can get over every single other problem, but every drama throws…
Oh AnnH Thank You! May I also add there has been a noticeable resurgent in comments and remarks about skin color or what is know as color supremacy/white supremacy. In 2018 an intelligent society would not use the excuse "Oh that's a cultural thing"; or even think that skin color separated the labors for the elite. Putting people down or believing they are less because of their ethnic origins, does not make your country the best, instead it makes your country a promoter of ignorance and hate.
Unfortunately this series current English translation is bad however, it is way better than Save Me. The only thing the two series really have in common is the cult aspect.
Very Under Rated! Please note: later reviews for this drama are higher. This was a near perfect written story with excellent arcs; the acting and directing is incredible and it has a decent OST. I think the ratings a low because of the lack of romance or forbidden romance and self sacrificing characters usually associated with period dramas. If you like those tropes and tragedies this is not for you or maybe you are ready to try something new.
I just started watching this and I would like to thank My Drama List for listing Pinthong Pensri as part of the cast. She is an excellent actress and very beautiful, who has always been relegated to playing a fussy maid or small parts. I'm glad she has a decent role in this drama and hope she receives better roles in the future.
She is a great actress and one of the queens of daytime/long drama series. Yellow Boots A.K.A Ice Adonis is a must see; yes it's a long drama (40 min. ep.) but well worth the watch!
Another great under rated drama that contains some of the best lines and comeback lines in K Drama history. In this drama every women has a story, which creates situations that most women can relate to. I laughed, cried and shouted on this emotional roller coaster, what a lovely Fem Fest. The first 2 episodes are a little messy or maybe just a bit confusing (Please Note: One early subtitled version made during it's airing in 2015 did contain some mistakes, which may have caused some of the confusion.)
Every time I see him, I always think he looks like a combination of Kang Dong Won and Joo Won. Does anybody else see the resemblance of the two actors together as Dong Ha?
This drama is totally under rated, on some levels it's very cerebral; a slow burn with some very good twist. It's defiantly not a drama for everyone; the story moves slow and could have been told with less episodes. However, the story is very compelling and Choi Kang Hee's performance makes it worth the watch.
This is a beautiful quite drama that is very under rated! Superb acting and a compelling story; it also has a great OST. Just read the comments below and then decide if it's worth watching.
Bride of the Water God is one the worst K dramas of all times! It had a bad script, lacked creativity and should have been called Bride of the Stagnate Water God or Bride of the Water God of the Black and Dead Seas. My rating for the drama is 2 because its only redeeming quality was the OST, which is very good but not well synced with the scenes.
This drama is totally under rated! Brilliant acting and script; not as glamorous as the King 2 Hearts but a compelling story that is very well executed. When KP aired in 2012 there had been some controversy over script similarities with King 2 Hearts, which started airing in the middle of KP's run because MBC had announced K2H way before TV Chosun announced KP. Also K2H had major star power and idol popularity; a bigger budget and was on a public network.
Did anyone else notice the slimmer buff version of Jo Jae Yun? In 2017 he rocked from Voice, Defendant and every role in between to Black with his pepper platinum hair, giving off a whole lot of smexy. Go Cheetah!
This one is hard to get into. Im on episode 3 and i stopped it 4 times to watch something else. When will this…
The show comes together beautifully at episode 6. The first 5 episodes feels like the plot is going in circles. They could have told the story in 12 episodes, however its still a great series that is under rated.
The drama is really great . U need understanding to watch this drama . I really like the story. Don't know…
I agree, this drama is excellent and very deep! It requires a certain level of maturity and experiences to really understand the complexities of the plot.
I would also add the following; some of these leads may just be strange or a little anal.
Cheongdamdong Alice (Park Shi Hoo's character was Crazy!) Fated to Love (Korean Version) MacHyuk was over the top! Protect the Boss Introverted Boss Boss & Me Marriage, Not Dating Boys Over Flowers (Lee Min Ho's character was the poster child for eccentric over top boys!)
Great drama that is very under rated! Stick with it, the rabbit hole of betrayals and conspiracies go way deeper than the first 2 episodes; there are a few twist and turns getting to the truth..
