Tell me about it!! work takes all ur time!! took me 2 DAYS to finish the (extremely long) first episode of VP2!!

@ Skye-N-Rain I don't think the number of dramas you've watched says it all however i think in this case it is at least a bit relevant, when you've watched more dramas you'd be exposed more to different types of characters. In this list for example, except for 49 days, the dramas kinda belong to the same type. I'm not saying this article is wrong or anything though. It was titled "5 coolest" so it could be the author found them cool and I'm cool with that. anyone who disagrees can write their own article ;) it'd be an issue if she had titled it "5 most kick-ass" :P then again we each have our own opinion.

Yea last year I never thought I'd Watch VP but then during finals I really needed something procrastinate or something to look forward to when i have my (supposedly 15 min turned 1 hour) breaks :P and I just read some comments about it on dramabeans so i thought I'd check it out.. I haven't seen much "Vampire" stuff recently cuz i felt it became i trend (i used to watch buffy & angel) but as procedural show it impressed me ;)

About Nice guy i've seen only 2 :P and I have been hearing good stuff about it, but the story just doesn't click much to me. Plus I don't have much time now that i'm working!! But I haven't given up on watching it.. yet :P

same here didn't have much time barely got the time to finally finish Bridal Mask. I just checked Nice Guy cuz i was curious i'm not really into mellos though dunno if i'll keep watching it (the idea of the show just doesn't register to me..) :S can't wait to have the time to start watching the second season of Vampire Prosecutor though :D

I agree with the list concerning the shows i've seen (can't say much about those i haven't :P) But I gotta add Yoo Bang from History of the Salaryman!! also maybe Lee Tae Jo from Partner and the whole group from Shut Up Flower Boy Band (all 6)
Thats from what i've seen of korean since i mostly watch japanese :P

Same here :P

This is soooo true!!!

Same here!! People around me are INCONVERTIBLE!! I once got so excited when my 7 year old niece sat next to me watching a drama and started to ask me "whats going on?" everyone else in the family was worried.. having one weirdo "in their view" is enough :P

I haven't seen all those dramas so i can't really judge
I agree with "heartstring", i never though "secret garden" music was #1 but knew ppl liked it
there are others that i've seen that also have awesome music
"shut up! flower boy band" 1st comes to mind
The main songs of "To the beautiful you" and "gaksital" r my favorite right now!! There's also "History if the salaryman" that (in my view) has awesome songs there. "Nine tail fox" although i didn't like that drama I loved its main song, still listen to it now like i did the 1st time a few years ago:P "the Devil" also had a nice touching song. well really think its a matter of taste. music can sometimes influence us to like a show, or vice versa ;)

LMAO!! so funny cuz its SOO TRUE!!!!! Seriously don't know whats wrong with me I can't stop laughing!!! the funniest is The I'd Do Better Review :P. My favorite is The Economical Review since it gets to the point ;)

16x45 is making wanting to watch "Queen In Hyun's Man"... thx for the review ;)

Team 10 is lotsa fun too!! King 2 heart I dunno y didn't feel like continuing :S
I need to watch Ghost too.. ;)

So from what I am understanding... you didn't like Bridal Mask?? Because I loved it. If it isn't a matter of taste, and u hate it and I love it, then what does that mean??

I have to agree that taste is not everything. The script, the acting, the setting, the design, music, directing.... all have an effect on any show. But no matter how well people work on a show, how much money is spent, it'll be impossible for 100% of the people to like it. So taste still has an effect by the end of the day.

lol i know I just had to mention him!! But it was a nice review you had I agreed with everything u said ;)

Haven't finished "Bridal Mask" yet but its most probably gonna be added to my favse too :P

I was really watching for both!! Joo Won is amazing for sure, but shunji's character under less capable actor would have made the show half as good as it is now!! I think Park Ki Woong stole the show just as much ;)
They totally gave me the feeling of "Kira vs L" (from deathnote anime :P) so thats really something ;)

Well his "friendly" character was soo boring that it didn't interest me at all, but his slow turn to the dark side was soo heart breaking and scary!! At that point I think the actor did such a terrific job!!!

You forgot to mention Shunji's character!!! You're right about the Lead (KangTo) he was AMAZING. But this second lead (Shunji) was JUST AS AMAZING!! Loved their Running after each other outsmarting each other!! For once, both evil & good are smart!! which makes it so much fun!!!
The lead actress & character (Rie) was just as interesting.. only wish she had more screen time :( (I only got to episode 24 till now and got to the point of afraid of watching what has happened BUT also GOTTA SEE IT since its the ONLY thing I THINK ABOUT ALL THE TIME!!!)
For me Oh Mok Dan is a "necessary" boring character :P but the actress didn't do such a great job either... I was actually more excited about the growing relationship between her dad the lead (father figure) But I love what her character does to the rest of the lead especially shunji when he wants to possess her, and Rie when u feel her envy

My first dramas were "when spring comes" and "Hello my Lady" both of which aren't famous or anything, but there were on the KBS World channel that me and my family "accidentally" got when we got the arabic satellite. Then when I missed a last episode of some drama, I started looking it up on the internet.. Thats when I got introduced to also Japanese & Taiwanese dramas :D I gave up Taiwanese after a while but come back to it sometimes, then I switch back and forth between Korean and Japanese ones (Among other things I watch Anime + British + Arabic + American/Canadian) depending on my mood. Gotta say it kinda changed my life :P (I see it in a good way others see it in a bad way)
Your experience is very similar to mine. When you first get introduced to this world, anything would do for you to get to know that world more, then you become more picky, but enjoying it all the same ;)

I've never watched an asian drama for more than 20 episodes... except "History of the Salaryman" which I felt cheated when it was extended so I never planned to watch this show but I promised a friend I'd try the first episode &... got so addicted that 22 episodes went by without me feeling it :P its both hard to watch and addicting at the same time ;)
