I am a big fan of Kdramas but I have to admit that in this case I am really not looking forward to this remake. I absolutely loved the drama and films of Nodame Cantabile and for me they will remain unique. I will obviously give the Kversion a chance and watch it but I am very, very skeptical.

Hi Edinaa, I am very happy to hear that you will come to tour around Italy. I hope you will like my country. Usually in August most of the Italians go away from the big cities and go to beach resorts therefore it is always good to visit cities at that time of the year.
Yes I decided to drop Emergency couple as I knew straight after watching the first episode that it wouldn't be my cup of tea.
I have not watched Dream either so I will learn from your experience and I will keep away from it.
At the moment, besides all the currently airing dramas I am enjoying Lovers in Paris and I have almost finished it. After that I will either watch I need Romance 2 or Smile Again. Have a nice day tomorrow.

Hi Edinaa, I'm very happy to hear that you are coming to Italy in the summer. For what concerns the weather it is usually good and it can also be very hot and humid, depending on the area where you will be going. In the second half of August sometimes it cools down a little bit with rain, but it is not heavy rain and it lasts very little. Yes I am enjoying the three currently airing dramas that you mentioned. All three are very good so this 2014 started really well. Whereas I watched the first episode of Emergency couple and didn't like it so I dropped it. Have a good week.

Hi Edinaa,
you love to drive on the snow? How interesting! I imagine you have the right tires to do so. On the contrary I am always very worried if I have to drive on the snow as I have normal tires because here it snows very rarely,in fact for the moment we are having a very mild winter. I am glad you are enjoying the Prime Minister drama. I personally am preferring the Man from the Stars, Inspiring Generation and I Need Romance 3, but I am also enjoying the Prime Minister one. Have a great week.

Hi Edinaa, no probs. Don't worry too much about not replying soon as it is understandable that life keeps us busy. I hope the accident wasn't too bad. Yes I am enjoying all the dramas that I am watching and for the moment I am not watching any other fiction of Western countries. I plan to watch the series Downtown Abbey soon, when I run out of older Korean dramas to watch but I think it will take a while as I have a few more on my list.
My daughter is doing very well in Tokyo thanks. She has settled there and is enjoying it very much. Have a great weekend. Take care.

thanks for your recommendation Genger, I will add it to my list. ;)

Hi Edinaa, I can understand why you were upset especially after the subscriptio was expensive for you. I am enjoying Lovers in Paris so far...it has a lovely vintage feeling to it as it is a drama of 2004. This week I have been keeping up to date with all the current dramas like the Prime Minister, I Need Romance 3 and Empress Ki. Tomorrow I hope to catch up also with the Man from the Stars and Inspiring Generation...wow...I am really enjoying watching 5 currently airing dramas although they keep me busy! Yes my week has been quiet as usual and I hope your week was good too. Take care.

Hi Edinaa, I'm glad to hear that you solved your connection problems. I am always very upset when this happens to me as I feel cut off from the world. Yes I finished Queen of Reversals two days ago and I rated it 8. I enjoyed it as it was a very realistic drama with no exaggerated situations like it often happens in Korean dramas. I now started watching Lovers in Paris and I am enjoying it. I hope your week is going well. Take care.

I'll certainly be waching the first and the third drama you mentioned. They sound good. I am not too interested in the detective drama by the sounds of it.

When I chose this drama to watch I didn't have high expectations as I thought it would be the typical family drama with a lot of makjang. However I was pleasantly surprised by how refreshing and realistic this story was without any of the usual over the top tragedies that happen in many other dramas. I also really appreciated the modern outlook on family issues like divorcing, starting a new life and friendship. The acting here was also very good and I actually have to say that this is my favourite Park Shi Hoo drama so far having watched most of his most famous ones. My rating is really an 8.5 and it would have been a 9 if it wasn't as long as 31 episodes.

Thanks so much for these three articles. I really enjoyed reading all of your comments and looking at the photos. :)

Hi Edinaa, IMO means 'in my opinion'. I'm fine thanks and I hope the same for you. This evening I will finish watching Queen of Reversals with Park Shi Hoo and I have to say that I enjoyed it as it is a very realistic story. I am also slowly progressing with Queen Seon Duk which is a lovely saeguk. I hope you have a good week. Take care.

Thanks for your friend request. I am a big fan of Lee Jun Ki and Song Joong Ki too. :)

Hi Edinaa, I had never seen Yoona before in any drama so for me The Prime Minister drama is the first one with her as the main character that I see. IMO her acting is not too bad in this drama although I prefer many other actresses to her of course. She is also so, so skinny that it is almost painful to watch her. In any case it is a good drama and IMO she doesn't deserve all the bashing in this case. Have a good week. Take care.

Hi Edinaa, I hope you always enjoy your ice-skating as it is a great sport to do. I think you are wise to limit your on air watching dramas. I have a lot of free time during the day which is why I can watch so many dramas at the same time. I liked the first two episodes of I Need Romance 3 as I know the main actors very well and like them both. I didn't watch the previous two versions of this drama but this one promises to be good. The first two episodes of Inspiring Age were rather violent but good...the time period is the same as Bridal Mask but the story seems quite different for now. Enjoy your Sunday.

I only watched When a Man Loves and 7GCS out of these and totally agree with your opinion. What a waste of talent (and time of the viewers) in both cases!

Hi Edinaa, how lovely that you enjoy skating. Are you talking about ice-skating or roller skating? I'm fine thanks and I hope the same for you. I have been watching as usual Empress Ki, My love from the Stars and The Prime Minister, and I also started watching I Need Romance 3 and Inspiring Age. I am pleased with all of these on-air dramas and they are keeping me good company. Take care and have a nice Sunday.

I watched Incarnation of Money because it was written and directed by the same people as History of a Salaryman so I was sure I would have enjoyed it which in fact I did. I only thought the first five episodes were too exaggerated but after that it became really good and intriguing. I rated it 9.

Hi Lee, thanks so much for your comment. I am also very happy to meet you. It is great to have such a similar wonderful passion. As you just started watching dramas you still have many fantastic dramas ahead of you to watch so I am sure you will have a great time. I will be very interested to know your opinion about them. Happy drama watching. :)

I agreed with the awards given to the actors of the dramas I Hear Your Voice, The Master's Sun and That Winter the Wind Blows. I didn't watch Empire of Gold yet but I will do so very soon. I watched this award ceremony live and IMO it was far too biased towards the actors of Heirs.
