A agree with your mom, but I know when to turn the show off. Show sounds makjang-a-riffic. Well, at least Ji Chang-wook is getting a job... in a sea of pop stars.

This drama sounds interesting... I instantly thought of 'Smile, You' though when reading the title haha

He's the guy from Death Bell 2 right? He has this somewhat refreshing charm about him that I really like. Although this drama is kind of packed with idols, I think I might give it a shot considering I don't know any of them really well. I might be in for a surprise. (A good one I hope.)

Might give it a try just because of Ji-Eun, Jung-Ah, and of course, Joo-Yeon!! :)

you know who else was in 24/7?
Hyunwoo and noh minwoo, both of Pasta and the latter of My Girlfriend is a Gumiho! THe entire group has now become actors.
2 Pasta connections in this drama, a good start! haha.

I lost interest the moment I read who the writer was. I love daily dramas, but I couldn't stand You're My Destiny. I definitely won't be watching this drama based on that writer alone.

heh, didn't know lee jang woo is hwanhee's cousin... now that you mention it, i can see the resemblance... a little. hope this will turn out to be good.

Ji Chang-wook... i adore him in Sons of Sol Pharmacy .. he did a terrific job playing young daddy to baby Hana ... so sweet ... nice to see him back

What time does this broadcast (in Korea)? I get confused about all the different broadcasting times...

looking forward to it...i always love weekdays drama and the last one that i watched was "likeable or not." after that the weekdays dramas got really bad, i was actually looking forward to kim so eun's drama but her lead is less than stellar.

What the hell?! Kim So Eun's drama is still airing? I thought that ended months ago.

I'll admit, I was addicted to the first half of You Are My Destiny, but after watching 80 episodes, I just couldn't go on. So much angst! And just when you think you have it all resolved, someone else comes along to screw things up! Daily dramas are just too long for me.

Though that was the drama that introduced me to Lee Ji Hoon and Lee Pil Mo. <3

Hi, I have a silent reader of your blog for more than a year already. I was wondering about Ha Ji Won's drama-Secret Garden. Did it start filming already? And if so, when would it air? I am so excited to see her acting in a drama again and I can't wait for her drama to come out.

Thanks, Javabeans.

i agree with #2! that was my first thought too. but everything went out of the window when i saw who the cast members are :D (a good thing, not to worry)

i think they're fun choices! i adored JCW in Sons of Sol Pharmacy, and Lee Jang Woo as well in Three Brothers (Oh Ji Eun too). and Alex! i haven't got to see him in a drama as yet, so this will be interesting. i'm excited!

"It’s also the drama that my mother calls 'the worst written drama of all time, ever.'"

Haha, that's exactly how my mom described Baker King Tak Gu, but she watched it till the end despite my insistence on quitting if she hates it so much. Sigh, the curse of the makjang dramas.

I really liked Ji Chang-wook on Sons of Sol pharmacy and on Hero (hee, his love story!), but if I watch this, I'll watch it for Alex. Now, guys, play nice: I claim Alex, ok?

xDD
omgsh...i clickdd the link cuz i though SuJu's Donghae was in the show..i did flips&flops around my room squealing..but than after i opened it...man was i dissapointed..xD sigh ..so sad
-sadie

I'm looking forward to Lee Jangwoo. He is just freakin adorable. And his voice is SUPERB. Great vocals. I wouldn't mind him crooning me to sleep. ;)

I might watch, but I admit it would mainly be to see Alex, no matter how small his role ends up being. I have had such a crush on him since his days on We Got Married!

Now you have me intrigued about Sons of Sol Pharmacy. It sounds like one I would like. I'll have to check it out!

OMG. YUMMY!!!!!!!!

I have a love hate relationship with daily dramas due to its makjang elements that makes me want to curse at the TV even if the main couple becomes endearing. But it's also easy to pick up where you left off. The plots are almost similar, so you can after a while, guess where this is going. And you get to learn Korean faster since its 100+ episodes of the same things being said. LOL. Reminds me so much of Taiwanese dramas. Not the idol dramas.

I didn't like You're My Destiny at all since they dragged the MIL-plot too long that I really don't understand why on earth is she still hating the daughter-in-law after so much time spent together. -___-

But ALEX! and Ji CHANG WOOK! Can Alex please sing in the show. I want to hear him sing!

Who's gonna be the mom?

I miss Sons of Sols so much. I think it's still one of the best written dramas ever. So endearing, so funny and hardly slow. <3 <3

Your mum is right. YAMD was the worst daily drama I'd ever seen. Only to be topped by current drama FWD.

OMMMMGGG, Finally!! I had been wondering what he was up to. I'm not happy with the casting of so many singers, but I guess as it is a daily drama, nobody's really expecting quality. Hee, as long as I get to see my Ji Changwook!

"my mother calls “the worst written drama of all time, ever.” (But she watched every episode and then liked to grouse about it. It had that oddly addictive combination of ridiculous storylines and makjang elements that made you want to see what happened even as you cursed at your TV.)" LOL to that.

Recently, I've been googling what's Makjang drama supposed to mean (curious cause seem many people that hate to love it) and have not been satisfied with the result (you know, I understand but that blurry understand). And that describes all. This is the best site for kdrama addict EVER

It's a daily drama? damn i thought it was jst a weekend drama that means this is gonna be long jst like all the other ones...only reason i'll give this drama a chance is because of a playgirlz & i support all after school members so yeah I'm watching for Jooyeon but I doubt I'll keep watching it on a daily base. I'll get tired of it & then tune it out til the very end.

Your mama is right. You're My Destiny was the WORSE drama I have ever seen. it was too long, too boring & it repeated itself. I'm not even a fan of Yoona or SNSD bt I watch jst to give her a chance but omg i lost interest..srsly I can't stand LONG dramas. ooh the curse of makjang dramas...never again would i put myself through something like that again

one more them just to on the safe side and accurately Ji Chang-wook and Oh Ji Eun are the main leads right! Tell me it is.

I hate that Moon writer. All she writes about is men and women cheating on their significant other and torturing us with stupid plots and subplots and each character repeating the same lines. Moon even forgets what she wrote in earlier episodes so the story doesn't even make sense in later episodes.

There is no originality. She takes lines and characters from other dramas and just change the actors and bachground. If you don't beleive me watch: Term s of Endearment and Three Brothers. They are almost identical!!!

I liked Oh Ji Eun in Three Brothers, but I will not watch this one because I know what's coming!

i hope super junior member leeteuk siwon kyuhyun and donghae give a chance to do a korean drama!!
