    I have ex-professors who are still married after 60 years of marriage and a few who got divorced after 3 to 5 years. So, different people have their own karma. This drama just bugged me because the writer had the guy marry his wife out of monetary reasons ( there's a word for people like him), and then implied that cheating on her was natural because there was no love. He had a kid with her, obviously she wasn't just giving him money.
    The thanks she gets!
    I'm not being cynical here. There is some miscommunication here and your remark was unwarranted.

    I'm just talking about dramas like Autumn Tale, Nine Tailed Fox, and the other dramas where it features kids who fall in love as kids. The characters like Won Bin's and Jun Jin's never got a chance at all and they were wasting their time to chase after SHK and KTH's characters. Because SHK and KTH's characters already decided a long time ago that they're in love with guys they knew as kids. I'm talking something different from what your drama is portraying. But I don't think old flames should always get together. Life changes and people who reunite may or may not have the same feelings after so many years apart.

    Oops, sorry. I see your point.


    90 days to love was just not a good drama. I have no problems with old flames getting back together or falling out of love with childhood crushes.

    To more important things, is worth watching the many episodes of Jumong or should I watch later historical type ( I am missing Dae Jang Geum)

    Well, they are somewhat similar when talking about the leading actresses. They both tie their hair up the same way. They both exaggerate their emotions. Both guys are rich. I can't remember the exact details, but there are some basics.
    This is my first time seeing LDH in a drama and I enjoyed her acting here as well. Looking forward to seeing more of her dramas.

    Hmm, you're right about the similarities between the two dramas. I guess I really never thought about it until you mentioned it. I watched Full House a long time ago so I don't really remember much about it.

    Currently, watching Time Between Dong and Wolf. So far, it's okay. I'm fast-forwarding most of it. Lee Jun Ki's acting here is very good. I prefer his hairstyle in this drama more than the long hair he had in My Girl.

    I think I found a good drama. Just finished one and a half episodes, it has intrigue (murder, illicit sex), funny ('college students'), romance.

    There seems to be teacher student relationship building up, but I hope Moon ends up with someone young. The teacher is the Lover in Paris guy Park, too old for her.

    I watched Hong Gil Dong, 1 episode, aiiiyaaa not my cuppa tea.

    Currently watching Iljimae. I guess its okay, a little draggy though. I really hope the storyline will pick up soon.

    I finished Soulmate, which was okay.

    I just started Terroir recently and the main actress is getting on my nerves with her stupid, rashness. I hope she doesn't stay that way because its annoying. Please give her a redeeming quality.

    About to finish Likeable Or Not, Kim Ji-suk & Han Ji-hye are very cute in the show. With plus of strong supporting casts, I thought the plot is decent despite some dragging scenes. But the ending is way off too perfect... LOL

    Wow, You're finished with that? It's more like a daily drama soap, and I didn't know that when I watched it months ago and so I was surprised at the length of the drama. But because its a daily drama that explains it.

    The main actress in Terroir is still annoying, but I'll try to tolerate her. The main actor is somewhat amusing to watch.

    I'm still watching Terroir. I thought the main actor would never soften and warm up to the main actress because their spats and arguing was so intense. Plus the main actor has this really serious and stern face that it makes it hard to believe that he'd have a soft side. Now that they both have developed feelings for each other, it's so cute how he tries to act tough and yet, do thoughtful and sweet things for her. MinTae and Wooju is so cute together. I kind of feel sorry for Joey, he's a sweet guy too.

    The relationship of the main couple is just like the main theme of the drama, which focuses on wine. It's bitter at first but as it lingers long enough, it tastes fine. Or to say that wine gets better with time and relationships get better with time.

    This should answer your first question:

    I could recommend you a few, but I don't know what you've seen or haven't.

    Story of a Man, with Park Yong Ha, Kim Kang Woo and Park Shi Yeon, is good. It's the drama currently airing on KBS after Boys Before Flowers ended.

    I watched a couple of episodes and realised that 160+ episodes of Kdrama will not fit into my schedule. The main couple's story shouldn't take more than 16 episodes if I read one review correctly. Why is it so long?

    That particular drama is a daily drama so it's shown everyday. I am still new to that type of drama, maybe JonDoe or somebody can shed some light on this.

    I am currently watching Boys Before Flower. But mind you, I watched again Meteor Garden I, just for comparison sake and refreshed my mind of the story again. Not exactly the same but the gist of the story is very similar. I still enjoy watching it.
