Name That Drama: Doppelgangers, blindness, ballerinas
by javabeans
Our first Name That Drama entry was pretty popular and prompted a bunch of new requests, so we’ve got a couple more head-scratchers for you to solve today!
I’ve got a few guesses myself, but always find myself stumped by that ONE detail that doesn’t really fit. So take your crack at ’em:
Luna writes:
So there’s the drama that I saw a short teaser trailer on and really want to watch it but can’t find it anywhere and it’s Korean. Here’s the bits I remember,
- main guy and main girl love each other
- main girl suddenly disappears and main guy goes crazy
- main girl comes back but it isn’t main girl (looks similar to her) and this girl and main guy fall in love
- the REAL main girl comes back and then main guy goes WTF because there are two girls that look alike except the main girl is in a wheelchair
That’s all I know and I’ve been searching for the show up and down for years.
Jess says:
I just saw the thread on “Name That Drama: High school rebels and tragic love” and I am in desperate need of help as well!
I was hoping you or someone will be able to help me out! The drama (Korean) was probably from the mid to late 1990s. I don’t remember much about it, I just remember that snow and/or winter played a big part in it. The leading actress eventually turns blind (don’t remember how!)… or maybe she was already blind?
It’s not Winter Sonata or Sad Love Story. The drama was much older! Thanks!
Kelly’s looking for a slightly newer show:
About 6-8 years ago, I watched a Korean drama about a woman who might have had a kid. She kept going to a fancy hotel. Perhaps she worked there?
There were two love interests. The second lead worked or owned the hotel. The leading man was older and had a heart condition and had heart surgery.
One of the lines that I semi remember were these.
Second lead: If we are both alike and have the same heart. Why did you choose him?
Girl: Because he has a heart that needs me.It was one of my first dramas before I hit my teens. I can’t remember much but maybe you may know. I greatly appreciate if you find it out with my little bit of info!
Ahn’s white whale:
First, I wanted to say what a great idea this is. I have been thinking about this drama for a long time now and I tried looking it up on the internet but no luck. Hopefully someone out there will know the name of it. Here’s some things I remember for sure about the drama:
- The drama is centered around a pretty affluent family with 2 sisters. The older sister is driven/talented/perfect and obviously the more loved one in the family. She’s a professional ballerina. She has a fiancé.
- The younger sister has poor grades and low motivation and is in love with her older sister’s fiance.
- The older sister gets into a car accident where her leg has to be amputated. She can never dance ballet again.
- The fiancé starts to learn towards the younger sister who feels guilty about her sister’s accident (I think she might had something to do with it indirectly) and also about her life improving while her sister suffers. She meets a guy (when she’s on cliff about to commit suicide out of guilt) who is wealthy and they get married. When they get married they are not in love but as the marriage continues, they fall in love.
I don’t remember what happens in the end. I watched the drama when I was pretty young. It was probably late 90’s to early 00’s. Thanks!

Agree. Besides the 1996 version, they also remade it more recently in around 2007. The 2007 one is called "dreamslink" (一帘幽梦). Same storyline, but minor differences; for eg dreamslink was set in Provence whilst the 1996 one was set in Paris.

The last one sounds very much alike a Taiwanese/Chinese drama called "Dreams Link" (又见一帘幽梦). It's written by Qiong Yao, a famous romantic writer back in 1990s (and somewhat less popular now). It's been remade several times so there are different versions of it, I think.

@jess: does this drama perhaps involve the two male leads and female lead having been best friends since they were kids, and the third wheel was the one that remained with her only for her to be stolen away when the other guy came back after mysteriously leaving? I swear the title had something to do with a glass rose and the girl died.

@Jess
The drama sounds like it is "Snowflakes". The leading lady is a chef and slowly going blind because of a disease. The main guy is the owner of the restaurant and a playboy and eventually they fall in love. The male second lead is played by Park Yong Ha (T_T) who is the only person whose name I remember.
I'm not sure if this is the drama you're talking about 'cause your descriptions are so general..lol..but here's a clip to the OST and you can check to see if it's the one you're looking for.

I am positive that what Kelly is looking for is Hotelier, back in the 90s or early 2000 I think, with Bae Young Joon, Song Yoon Ah, and Kim Seung Woo. The leading lady did not have a child, but she worked in that hotel. Kim played her colleague. Bae played an investor looking to buy that hotel.
The line that was exchanged between the characters (Kim's and Song's) is what tips me off :) hope that's the correct drama.

I know Jess's drama sounds like "Stairway to heaven," but if the drama aired in mid to late 90s, then it might not be Stairway, since that was 2003 or 2004ish. The kdrama Jess is looking for might be "세상끝까지." Which gets translated as "Forever yours" or "To the end of the world" depending on the english website. This was a Kim heesun drama from the late 90s where she goes blind, and then her boyfriend, (Ryu Shi won) who was dying of some terminal illness, donates his eyes to her before he dies. Something like that. I hope this helps.

Yea, it was super weepy. I didn't understand a lot of the character motivations; I think 11 was too young to really get why these people were acting so melodramatic. Retrospectively, this is one of those typical late 90s melodramas, but I remember it was very popular at the time. A lot of my friends and unnis at the time saw it.

I can't seem to remember this drama that I watched almost around ten years ago with my mom. I'm pretty sure it was a chinese drama. The story focused on three sisters and their relationships. I remember the eldest sister lost her child when he was a baby and years later found him again and disrupted her ex-husband's wedding to go get him. The child had a accent from growing up in the country side and was rebellious. I don't really remember the second and youngest sisters but I think one of them fell in love with a hippy-ish guy with a speaking problem or something. I've been looking for this drama for a long time but I don't remember the name. Also, the ost for the drama was "The most romantic affair" by Zhao Yong Hua. If anyone can find it, please reply!

All I remember of it that this lady really loved this guy but the guy betrayed or something and she was so heartbroken and mad that her hair turned white (all white!) overnight and she wasn't the same person after the guy next saw her. (And so then I was under the impression that if I was really sad/mad, all of my hair would turn white.)
Sorry I'm not much help. My family doesn't remember the title either...

Woah! These "Name that drama" entries are a very good idea! Sadly I can't help because I'm new to dramas... :(
It's very funny to read everybody's answers, because really all these dramas have a lot of similitaries! It makes me think of the Guess Who game! :D Go guys! You rock!

No, it's not. I've seen Stairway to Heaven. The drama I'm talking about was much older.

i think it's not Mr Goodbye.Yes Ahn jae wook character had a heart surgery and he is hotel CEO but there was no line If we are both alike and
have the same heart. Why did you
choose him?
Girl: Because he has a heart that
needs me.

I think I remember that line from Mr. Goodbye. Between her and the second lead guy who was Head Concierge. And there is a kid in that show two. But he's not her kid he's the mail lead's son who he never knew about. The second female was a doctor who had herself impregnated with a sperm sample he donated for money. Mr. Goodbye is the first (and only) melodrama I've ever watched so that's why it sticks out so clearly in my mind.

I'm afraid I have no input for helping to solve the mystery dramas. :( But, I hope I can ask a question of my own. ^^; There was this drama that I watched back in the early 2000's, somewhere between 2000-2005. I don't remember much except that there was a scene where the main guy is sitting at a playground at night and he looks up at the moon and sees the main girl's face on it. He's very startled by this vision and it's quite comic. XD If I'm not being confused with another drama, at the end of the series, he marries her and you see them walking along with babies strapped to their backs.

This is SOOOOO not a romantic comedy. It's MELO all the way. I watched this early in my K-addiction when I thought that all dramas were meant to be romcom. I watched all 16 episodes waiting for the Cute and the Funny to arrive. Turns out they missed this crazy train... either that or the Creepy and the Depressing beat them up and stole their tickets.
