Korean Dramas

Lately I've been watching a couple different Korean Dramas and I must say when those young looking boys smile it makes me blush. =w=

A list of shows I've been watching are:
~Boys over Flowers (read the manga too)
~ Cinderella's Sister
~ Flower Boy Ramen Shop

I find them better than American soaps like All my Children.

So have you watched any good KD's recently? Tell me about it and we can swoon and discuss. lol

I only used to watch the historical dramas (no subtitles and no dubbing, and I speak almost no Korean OTL ). Loved the costumes, sets, and I can be a fan of the cultural element that is called han.

The live action shows based on shoujo manga or manwha is much different from the Korean dramas I've seen.

This is my favorite Korean actress --> Lee Young Ae - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
I believe that she's fairly well known internationally, and I saw her in a drama called Dae Jang Geum.



Rather than pretty boys, they show a lot of food.


And I love food.

Ah Dae Jang Geum, now that's a good one! I always watched that when I should have been studying

Although I'm Korean, I actually don't like many Korean dramas.

However, I did find one quite enjoyable. It reminds of Mulan at some points.

I just finished "Boys over Flowers", it made me cry. I told that to my husband and he says: "That's what drama's do". lol
Yeah I shed a few tears.

I do love food myself and sense "Dae Jang Geum" was mentioned twice now I'll look into that as well.

Dramas that I have seen:

COmpleted
Immortal Admiral Yi Soon Shin
Emperor of the Sea
Jumong
Yi San
Dae Jang Geum
QSD
Dong Yi
Tree with Deep Roots
Comrades


Incomplete/Seen only a little bit of
Tears of the Dragon
Taejo Wang Geon
Sons of Sol Pharmacy

Ones that I prefer not to talk about
KIng Geunchogo
Gwanggaeto the "Great" (how there they ruin this historical figure)
Road No. 1


I'm currently watching God of War (has nothing to do with the game) and Bridal Mask

Do they sell of these with English subtitles, do you know? The Dae Jang Geum videos that I had bought a long time ago, see, I gave them to my mother. I had watched a lot of it with her, but like I said, I don't understand enough Korean to get the full story.

Yeah you can find these on websites like Dramafever and Crunchyroll, subtitled. There are also DVDs with subtitles as well

I don't think I could go without subtitles. XD but if I watched the series boys over flowers again, I'm sure I'd learn the word " what" because they sure do use that word a lot. Lol

More Dae Jang Geum commentary. The best parts is the food porn. There is so much food porn there needs to be a parental advisory warning there.

Funny how it changes from cooking drama to a medical drama though
