    Thumbs down

    My Girl. The only one which I still couldn't finish it, which is rare. Storyline was nothing new but a mix in between Full House and KSS, but did no breakthrough. male lead is plain, female lead is stiff and overly done. I am not gonna discuss how bad do I think LDH did in the drama, which could result in very childish discussion.

    I am not saying the drama is crap, but just no attractive to me and it is the only one that I have a hard time to watch till the end. Other low rating drama (in Korea) like a love to kill and sad love song, I had no problem to finish them once I started watching it, but My Girl is just something couldn't turn me on. Having watched KSS, Goong, I expected My Girl would be more extraordinary in the midst of good apprasial from the net.

    omg i just thought of LOVE LETTER. i actually went halfway with it (still don't know what possessed me) but it just went from bad to worse to horrible. i'm a huge fan of JI JIN HEE, but if you value your sanity STAY AWAY from this nightmare.

    I would agree to Full House and I've just watched Jewel in Palace [1 epi] and stopped right away. It dragged too much.
    - currently watching: Fashion King, Rooftop Prince, Love Rain, and Equator Man-
    - recent favorite drama: The Princess's Man

    Summer Scent. All-In was good in terms of acting but the plot goes back and forth way too any times.

    Sad Sonata - It was so predictably how the story goes on.

    1. Stained Glass ( didn't like the ending so didn't watch after 4-5 episodes)
    2. The wedding ( watched 3-4 episodes and lost interest)
    3. Sweet 18 ( never got the chance to finish though i would love to )
    4. Say u love me ( too silly to watch...horrible storyline)
    5. All In ( watched many episodes but missed the last 3 episodes)
    6. Glass Slippers (did see the ending but missed many episodes in between)

    Let's see, there was quite a few I didn't finish:

    My Girl
    Sassy Girl Chun-hyang
    Wonderful Life
    Goong (Princess Hours)
    Lovers in Paris
    Stairway to Heaven
    Save the Last Dance for Me
    Love Story in Harvard
    Sweet 18
    Sangdoo, Let's Go to School
    My 19 Year Old Sister-in-Law
    Loveholic
    Let's Go to the Beach

    That's all I can think of for now but there's probably more. I guess I'm quite particular about watching series. I either found these series boring and cliche, the storyline not to be interesting, or I just didn't like the actors/actresses in them.

    I probably got the titile wrong, it's probably 19 year old bride or something, couldn't finish the show, couldn't be bothered with the title.

    Compared to the number of kdramas that I did finish, the list I gave was really not that long. I am not a Hong Kong or Taiwan drama fan, I watched mainly anime and jdramas actually. Kdramas was a passing phase for me, I really did watch quite a few kdramas a few years ago.

    Jdramas? hmm... never tried any, do you have any good recommendations????
    i've never been a fan of anime (secretly i think they're a bit scary) but its pretty big out here in california and EVERYONE i know goes to the anime convention.

    back on topic ---
    i've just watched the first episode of HAPPY TOGETHER with lee byung hun and song seung hun. CANNOT go any further. already the girls in the series are grating on my nerves and SSH's character is very.... lacking. the only good thing is that LBH is absolutely adorable (however i'm afraid it might ruin his wonderful image from ALL IN)
