growth, however, is very tangible throughout the series and by the final film it;s very tangible that they have grown and matured. It;s not recommended if you don't likle romcoms or standard romcom cliches. Despiute the spomewhat original setup, it's hard to get rid of the impression of cliches. Romcoms in general tend to copy the same sterotypes so I wouldn;t recommend it if you don't like romcoms or cliches in romcoms in particular and if you can;t get used to manga-feel, as this is based on a manga. Ah I see. I'm afraid I've never heard of him before, but I'm not much into Cuban music. (I just googled him now)
Actually my username ended up being accidental but I felt like I wanted something with an edge to it that wouldn't sound too silly. However, in urban dictionary, as I checked later, the word has connotations which I definitely don't like so I will problably change it.

haha :D That;s my bone of contention with LMH- he is the same no matter what he plays. I was having a conversation with someone about him the other day and we came to the conclusion that his eyes should be liusted as a separate actor on MDL because his eyes are quite expressive, though he himself isn't lol. I wouldn't be surprised if you found Bad Guy overly melodramatic. It's a revenge story but you;ll have to see how it comes together before we can discuss it as I don't want to spoil it for you. And Kim Nam Gil is a pretty expressive actor. he choses roles that are somewhat similar to his role in bad guy, rather tragic, flawed and sympathetic. Nodame cantabile is a romantic comedy with a manga feel to it that uses classica music, which is pretty interesting. The story itself has that manga feel to it and has typical characters - cold hearted guy (at first) and a clumsy female. Their

Hi Compay :) hahaha, you never know ;-) I;m not sure when exactly was it started but Skye'n'Rain is the founder, or one of the founders. You can always ask him directly when did he come up with the idea and how :) I don;t like waiting for new episodes either. I prefer marathoning, or st lrast watching several episodes in one sitting. Do you like Faith so far? Oh Bad Guy, I completed this one, i was very into Kim Nam Gil. Are you liking it? I also justy completed one long drama and one heavy drama-1 litre of tears. After this I felt like rewatching one of my completed dramas and went for nodame cantabile and I loved it lol. By the way, your username is curious. Is there a story behind it? If I may ask, that is.

I know Sunfloer. that's why I have a gripe with most of romcoms in the first place. No eye candy? Jang Dong Gun is very handsome lol. Well, they wanted to be original and made "sex and the city" about guys. but I agree with you, definitely. but i still hope you will have a happy watching experience as it is quite cute, this drama.

it may be lovely to share. Yes I watched AGD. It was an enjoyable chick flick and I enjoyed the chemistry between the four friends most of all. They were the best. The cast was great, couldn;lt have better actors for this. I'll wait until you finish but it is an adorable romcom, but I do have quite a few gripes with it. But, not to spoil anything for now, let me know how you likes it when you finish, please.

Chiaki and Nodame were just too lovable. At the end of the filn I was left wishing to hug both of them an I had such a physical sense of their hug that I just wanted that hug to last, it was so..tangible. they gave me a real feeling of warmth. I felt that throughout the drama and movies Chiaki was always missing Nodame. Nodame had her own peculiar ways of showibg affection but Chiaki an I thought it was striking was always missing her and her piano too. When I rewatched it yesterday and on Tuesay I ha such a strong fuzzy feeling that I knew this drama is one of those romcoms I unabashedly enjoy simply. haha yes the slapstick manga type comedy acting can be difficult to get used to. Yes I also want to rewatch the final ep with subs as I did not understand everything. but I watched it anyway. Hahah, lovely the more drama watchers the merrier? Maybe they can watch more dramas now too

Hi Sunflower! Well I was rewatching it actually and I really liked it. Even though the two main characters are typical for romcoms-the cold guy and the ditzy girl (it's not so different in RMPW either), I loved hoq quirky they were. what I most love about it was how tangible the progression was by the end of the second film- they both grew up so much and their love also grew, along with their music skills. It was really rewarding to watch. The misic of course was great and I think I really like this kin of humour as I really laughedout loud at least several times. The drama has put me in a very good mood and let me forget some sour thoughts that I had latelty. I felt the set up of the story was not unoriginal, either, especially because it deals with classical music. I liked it and how quirky it was.

oh and yes I watched the special too...I really liked how she lives in them still. It was a touching conclusion, how they remember and deal with it.

Hello! Co tam slychac? Ja wlasnie sobie poniownie obejrzalam nodame. bardzo mnie urzekla. mimo ze glowne postacie sa troszke typowi zimny dran i taka kluska z bohaterki ale...podoba mi sie jak razem wzrasataja i dorastaja i jak zwiazek i muzyka i umiejetnosci ich sie umacniaja. takie cieple uczucie ta drama pozostawia. stosunukowo oryginalna drama tez. wiecej takich mize byc, przede wszystkich ze wzgledu na to wspolne dorastanie i dojrzewanie bohaterow- to bylo bardzo namaclane, bardzo mi sie to podobalo, miedzy postaciami z dramy a z ko ca filmu jest juz taaaaka roznica.
I enjoyed this story when I watched it as I found is likeable
EDIT: 04-03-2014: But I'm not sure how I would react if I watched it NOW. It was forgettable all in all.

Yeah, I wished there was more alloted time for other couples but Do Jin and Yi Soo was precisely what the audience wanted, don't you think? The story was a long time ruler of MDL..it;s now replaced by Bridal mask, i was a bit disappointed by the tone of the article about it on MDL main page. It sounded a bit arrogant to me. Joo Won really isn't that of a good actor...not just yet anyway. Rich man is a typical romcom, farah and the buzzerbeat style annoyed me a lot too, I'm glad I"m not the only one I like romcoms but something more like japanese would do, not like koreans would do..please still I agree about oguri and her. I actually finished watching it for them..and for Asahina. I like him.

I hated it. The storyline was atrocious...especially in the final episodes. But good luck finishing it! I have just finished 1 litre of tears- what a drama...you really cry a bucket. And it;s very inspiring. Also, rewatched Noame cantabile and I found that I really like it, even though the girl is still running after the guy and the guy is cold at first but they progress so much, both of them and the music is lovely and the tewo of them are so quirly and lovable that I really can;t resist this drama it;s lovely.

o masz, to faktycznie mocne..la nie to jest fenomenalne jak oni potrafia poruszac tyle roznych spraw. W tym sensie sa bardzo open minded a zarazem maja jeszcze w sobie taka niesmialosc, ktora jest urocza. Murakami oczywiscie ze znam, ale jak dotad czytalam jego tylko hard-boiled wonderland- ale bylo to swietne, podoba mi sie jego styl, musze go wiecej poczytac niebawem. Nie wiem czy najbardziej znany. A Kawabata? Jeszcze jest nadto Kazuo Ishiguro brytyjski pisarz pochodzenia japonskiego i to jeden z oich ulubionych pisarzy. Chetnie sprobuje tej autorki jednak bardzo zachecajaco o niej piszesz. Jak Ci sie podoba To the beautiful you?
I really enjoyed this one. I just rewatched it twice in a row!! the characters were so quirky. I really found this one fun to watch. Music was fabulous and it all served to create a very entertaining mix. the leads were interestingly quirky and they grew to be so endearing! I found it to be a very endearing drama all in all. The most important thing- the progression of characters is so awesomely tangible. When the final film ends, you just feel how different they are. I really love this series. I am NOT a fan of Ueno Juri, as I find her underwhelming as an actress, but here I find her to be just so insanely likeable.
hahaha. to jest troche dziwne: bo z jednej strony czasem mam ochote na jakiegos romcoma, a zdrugiej strony chcialabym zeby byl on bardziej ambitny niz standardowwe boy meets girl. i szlag trafia przy RMPW, to nie jest to czego szukam. Nodame Cantabile bardziej mi odpwiada jako love story. Wprawdzie ostatecznie dramy to nie jakie? eseje filmowe.I sama nie wiem dlaczego tak mnie to czasem drazni, a zaczyna mnie bardzo czasem draznic uwielbienie dla idolow bo mam wrazenie ze to przeslania czasem wszystko inne. ups, sorki, czasmi nie?wiadomie te polskie znaki wchodza, chyba zmienie klawiature na angielski po prostu. Aishiteru nie znam, nawet tytu?u nie slyszalam ale chetnie sprawdze o co sie rozbiega. nie nie znam, generalnie malo czytam wspolczesnej literatury, czesciej siegam po 19 wiek, ale ch?tnie si?gn? po co? nowszego tez:) - dzieki.
