I like them too, but only a selective collection are nice to watch. I think they've somewhat exceeded the popularity of Japanese dramas.

The storylines are excellent. Wink

I got fascinated by Korean Drama too. They have good storyline and the music is soothing too. The actors & actresses protray their characters of the show very well. If you are watching the drama on love, it really brings you to feel it, so touching. Wait till you watch them and you'll understand...

The Koreans are doing very well with their stem cells research. If it is successful then can you imagine the future of most horrendous diseases of the world in the next 10 to 15 years Confused:

It would be nice to see these being cured Smile

Some others to consider:
A. What Happened In Bali
B. Damo
C. Full House (comedy)

Jewel Of The Palace comes very highly recommended by many. I've yet to find myself a copy of that, though.

Everyone, I really recommend the drama "Glass Slippers" in Korean "Yuri Kudu" or in Vietnamese " Chiec Vai Thuy Tinh"

It has action, romance ... an exceptional storyline! I cried soooo much!

My fav Korean movie to date is still My Sassy Gal. Really Funny & touching.

I got hooked on to korean drama after watching Autumn Fairy Tale (2000). Summer Scent is not bad as well.

I got hooked after watching "Glass Slippers". This soap has it all, love story, suspense and drama. It has an exceptional script and excellent actress. I especially love the actress who plays the elder sister.

She is simply stunning. Very gorgeous and has a sophiscated air about her. I don't really know how to describe it but an aura of nobility in her character. You know what I mean, the kind of beauty atypical to East Asian ladies. And I am a woman myelf...If anyone knows her name and other movie she is in, please let me know.

I also love Da Chang Jing, the first royal woman physician in Korea. I love all the history that goes on in this series.

her name is, Kim Jee Soo. She was a top actress 10 years ago.

i recommend All-In the most. that's even much more interesting than the famouse winter sonata. most koreans think All-In is the best in recent.
you can't sleep without watching through it all, 24 series...lol ; )

the songs in the drama are also very nice.

I can't believe Kim Jee Soo has been acting for over 10 years. How old is she?

Thanks for the headsup. I will look out for All In.

In reply to you request, I would like to recommend "StairWay to Heaven" to you. It is a very touching, dramatic and romantic drama series. It electrified my heart although I watched this series more than twice. The sucessful of this series owned by the director who knows how to present the true love to the audience as well as the chemistry between the actor and actress.

This drama is showing on channel U every Monday and Tuesday at 10.00 p.m.


Fan of Korean Drama
