So Lately Ive been watching Korean dramas, and as most of you know, I have become obsessed with them!
A lot of you ask me WHY I like them so much, and why I cant be normal and like American TV.
Well this is my reponse to all of you
Reasons why I like them
1. SO INNOCENT!
-with normal TV, you cant get such innocence; everything is corrupt now days, or so i thought
but seeing these dramas makes me realize that there are still some good people in the world
2. I always learn something
-as you will see with my descriptions bellow, theres always a key lesson that I take away from my dramas
it makes me want to change some things in my life for the better
3. I learned not to push people away from me because I think its better for them
Just like in Shakespeare's time, when people were forced to watch theater to become better people,
the complicity of the dramas makes me see what they did wrong, and how I can avoid those mistakes in my life
4. It satisfies the need for romance in my life. HAHA :)
-no explanation needed :)
So now Im gonna list the dramas I have watched so far, and my opinion on them
1. Secret Garden
This drama is my all time favorite.
It was also the first drama I watched.
This brings me back to good memories. I watched this with my cousin Esther when I was with her in Germany. Watching this together brought us closer together.
This story is so cute! I could not stop thinking about it for about a week after I watched it. Its one of those things that affects people on a personal level.
2. City Hunter
This drama was so intense! Lee Min Ho is truly the best actor I've ever seen. I was so obessed with him while watching this. I googled him over 20 times :p
3. Lie to Me
This drama had me in fan girl mode! The main girl character had such a strong personality, and the guy loved her so much! I hope that someday I can be loved with the love that was showed in this drama. I still think about the "fish flip" the main lead did when he was laying down. It was so cute! youd have to see the drama to understand what Im talkin about though :)
4. Protect the Boss
This drama had the cutest "mean girl" usually I find myself not liking the typical character, but in this drama I loved it.
5. You're Beautiful
I LOVED THIS DRAMA! It was just a cuteness overload. The main character was so innocent and sweet.
She was so honest and caring. I learned a lot from her character
6. Playful Kiss
This drama was cute, but I didnt like how much the girl had to chase the guy. He should have paid more attention to her. :p
The girl lead had supercute taste in clothes! I look some tips from her :)
7. Boys Over Flowers
This drama was near the top when it comes to my favorites.
The girl was so hardworking, but it was a little unrealistic how much help she got from beautiful rich men.
Well I guess its what girls want to watch!
I learned from this drama to follow my dreams before anything else.
8. Scent of a Woman
This drama taught me to live life to the fullest.
I realized that I gotta live in such a way that if i were to die tomorrow, I would be happy.
9. My princess
This drama had the most beautiful girl lead.
I literally changed my style a little after seeing how cute hers was.
This drama had people waiting for their love.
This also taught me some important lessons
10. Personal Taste
Honestly, I watched this for Lee Min Ho, but I loved the drama also.
I learned not to let people take advantage of me from watching this.
11. Marry me, Mary
This drama was sooo cute! the girl has the cutest hair ever. Im thinking of getting a perm now -_-
I loved how there werent any antagonists here, but the characters were so likeable :)
It made me sad though that the good guy didnt get chosen, as usual :(
But still supercute drama.
12. IRIS
This drama is one of my favorites. It had an AMAZING ost, and the killer guy (TOP) was really attractive. This drama showed me how lucky I am to have people I can trust, while on the other hand showed me not to trust people too easily. Definitely would recommend it.
13. My girlfriend is a Guhimo
This drama was so good! It was my first fantasy drama, and i loved it so much! the long hair on MiHo was sooo pretty! and the fox rain song OST was really good <3
14. Goong
In this drama, I fell for the 2nd lead. I felt really sad for him, since his fate was so sad.. Great drama though, regardless of the slow beginning..
15. Full House
Rain was in this drama! I think its what made it soo good. He was just so cute, especially when he pouted. Although he got angry and yelled a lot, i still thought he was cute. A good drama, but not the best. Would have been better with more romance.
16. 49 days
This was the best drama I have ever seen. It was as good as, if not better than, Secret Garden. The plot was absoultely amazing! Im gonna do an entire post on this drama, called Pure Love.
17. Coffee Prince
Such a cute drama :) Very open about homosexuality. I loved how calm the second female lead was in the beginning. People accept each other here. love it.
18. My Name is Kim Sam Soon
Cute drama! The end of it was very similar to my situation right now, so I really liked it. Its all about waiting.
Loved David Henny here. Hes so attractive!
- between here I took a break from dramas. I watched half of warrior baek dong soo and some other stuff.
19. Dream High
Amazing drama. I looved Suzy and Dong soo.. :) It was the first drama where the nice guy won. I guess they were both nice, but still. And also because of Pil sook here i started a diet :) She (IU) is such an inspiration in the drama! looove it.
20. Wild Romance
Such a cute drama! I loved how the couples were so similar. Their laugh and how stupid they were. I also loved the sexy secretary robot guy. Muahaha he was the best! the girl here did Judo and I became really interested in this. I would have taken classes for it but my dad didnt let me..
21. Hearstrings
I loved this drama. The girl dresses so modestly it made me want to buy a long skirt. Also she said she would give up on him and then he started chasing her. This gave me hope. The ost was soo good here!
22. Prosecutor Princess
Cute drama!!! The character, hye ri, changed so much throughout. She also had to loose weight in the past, which i really admired. It wasnt the best drama but I still really enjoyed it. I loved the akward turtle, aslan, and the grace shoes :)
