Fantasy Couple is great!! It's really funny and clever, and the characters are all awesome. They even made me love the secondary guy! The secondary girl was hilariously awful though. It drags in the last two episodes, but other than that it's really solid. I'm watching Which Star Are You From right now, it's pretty cute too.

I don't mind a bit of drag. That is what ff button is for.

Nah, you'll like the drag. They cram 2/3 of the angst into the last 2 eps.

I didn't vote for anything in the Korean section, since I have no idea about half of those, but if I did, it'd be for Misa. :] Which I will never finish, but who cares.

Japanese, I voted for Orange Days, since I've been meaning to watch that too.

Taiwanese/Chinese, none. Just. Because.

Is Misa too angsty for you?

...yeah. I heard that it's one of the angstiest Korean dramas or something? XD;;

Eeeee! I love your write-ups! Thank you for adding me back! I liked JRW in KSS actually, she was my fave thing about that drama.

Hehe, I didn't take the poll but I always like to read your ravings, even though I've never seen a K/Jdrama myself! ;)

i personally ADORE 9 Ins 2 Outs. Not a very popular drama (at least rating wise) and very bad sypnosis given on wiki but I'm glad I tried this drama. Childhood friends turns lovers is cliche I know but if you give me Hyung Tae, give me cliche anyday!

Dalja's spring is funny and adorable. Definitely should give it a try. I fell in love with Dalja.. she's not your typical heroine.. Reminds me of Chae Rim's character in All About Eve minus the crying part.

As for Taiwanese drama, why not try Fated to Love You? It has not ended yet but I enjoyed watching it so far. Very cute drama :)

9I2O looks so adorable.

FtLY has pregnancy and it's a storyline that I am not very keen on. But I might check it out :)

All the Korean dramas are awesome choices. I've seen most of them, and I want to see the rest. But, I had to go with Spring Waltz, adorkable couple with angst!


For the Japanese drama, again all awesome choices. And, I've seen all but two, so I do rec them all. However, S.O.S. is pure awesome. You hate them and love them and just want to hug them. Million Stars is pure angst and you want the couple together, but. . . oh, angst at every turn. Orange Days is the best. Eriko Kitagawa writes romance so well; all the characters are likeable and even the secondary OTP is an OTP in their own right. Ah, oh! Bara No Nai Hanaya so awesome and sweet and sad! And. . . okay, just watch them all.


In Tw dramas:


MY LUCKY STAR!!!! it is by far one of the best tw-idol dramas ever. They avoid nearly every chliche and it's just perfect. The bad thing about twdramas is they tend to use the same girlband/boyband members and romantic chliches over and over again. MLS really worked hard to avoid those things and not be the typical drama. And it works. Oh, it works!

MLS it will definitely be, of all the Taiwanese and Chinese dramas. It just sounds so interesting.

I watched the ending of SOS and so cute!

I only voted for the Korean section as it's the only one I'm semi-versed in.

I'm scheduled for "Mawang" at the moment: finished the first episode and I'm mighty interested.

Also, I'm a bit torn between "Spring Waltz" and "Stained Glass," but ended up voting for the latter for the simple reason that it's the one I finished. I didn't like its ending and it's a little draggy, but it's Lee Dong-gun in a suit and Kim Ha-neul is pretty. Plus, we get to see Kim Sung-soo, the I-wouldn't-mind-ending-up-with-you secondary guy in "Full House" in bonnets, yo. :)

Whichever you choose, have fun watching!

I started Mawang and loved it but I am going to wait until the weekend to marathon it. I need at least a few hours a day for it because it looks completely brain-absorbing.

I know SG has a notoriously open ending!

Is the Pope a Catholic?

What kdrama is there without angst? This just doesn't have much of the kind of angst that annoys me - people being melodramatically broken by something that would have been cleared up by a simple conversation.

LOL.

Talking? *gasp* Next you will be telling me it's not OK to fall in love with a stepsibling...

My bias goes with ERIC, so it's Super Rookie, haha, plus it's a really funny series seriously :DDD

And despite my hatred for Barbie, I think Corner with Love is beautiful <3

I haven't finished Fantasy Couple yet but it is cuuuute. Same with Corner With Love, which might be even more your thing since it gets angstier in the last batch of eps.

Tons of people have been plugging Dal Ja's but I personally wasn't feeling the first ep when I saw it. Regardless, very loved drama so I can't see you going wrong with it.

I've never seen Super Rookie but if it's anything like Invincible Parachute Agent, you will definitely enjoy it. I didn't vote for it though (didn't vote for anything on that list). heh.

I couldn't vote for the jdramas because I've never seen any of those. But I had to vote for MLS for taiwanese drama. It's almost, almost like STLD (kdrama) on crack. Similar vibe without the amnesia. *g* I think you'll like it.
