I would like to win Flower boy next door! Okay, i admit it's because I can get photobook while the others do not have it. It's my first drama where I saw yoon si yoon and godlord! He's so freaking adorable! Plus his nagging to park shin hye where he nagged her with his 'ahjumma'! Park shin hye is one of my favorite actress because her acting is solid and her acting in this drama is remarkable. Also, not to forget the second male lead and his post-it note which was sooo schweet and made me swoon! D'aww this is definitely one of my favorite dramas and everybody out there, this drama is recommended!

I would like to win monstar's! When dramabeans stopped recapping the drama, i did feel sad. And all of a sudden, dramabeans said it was so good that the recap continued! Yay! Which is also the reason i started watching the whole dramas and also read the recaps diligently! I came to be junhyung's fangirl because well, his acting in the drama is just sooo my style. Also all of their musical performance is intriguing! Kang ha neul and his tall statue is also an eye-catching! Dramabeans, please make me become one of the winners! I am your loyal reader although i don't comment frequently! Tee hee

I hear your voice allowed me to learn some things from him.
The value of forgiveness, the burden of loyalty, revenge and pain especially that life is too short to hate someone.
I really want this ost and save the memory is FOREVER these lessons and these people.

I want the I Hear Your Voice OST! :)
This is the first drama that I rewatched each episode at least once (some episodes more than others XD) WHILE the series was still airing. After it finished airing, I rewatched the whole series three times in one week! I LOVED the plot and the acting, but it would not have been as good if it werent for the amazing soundtracks. I can't stop listening to the OST even though the drama ended quite some time ago! This drama is easily one of my favorites, with its easy-to-root-for OTP and endearing story. IHYV was one of the few dramas I watched this year where I was never bored at all!

I would love to have the Monstar OST because I loved the music in the drama to death! There are very few dramas out there where all the music used hits the right notes for me and Monstar was one of them. I was anticipating every episode not only to know how the story unfolds but also to see (or better hear) what beautiful piece of music they would gift us with. And the fact that it was the cast who sung the songs is just the icing on the cake :)
It also introduced me to some new singers since the songs were mostly covers and I am really thankful for that :)

I would like the I Hear Your Voice OST!
I really, really love this drama and it is now my favourite drama of all time. When the first episode aired, i watched it and i was hooked. Damn, how can Lee Jong-suk be so cute? For some reason when I watched him in School i didn't really thought that he was attractive. He is now on my desktop/phone background and i stare at him everyday *-*. Every time i listen to the opening of the drama, i sing along and that annoys my sister a lot (so i sing more). I kept asking her to watch it and she loved it so much too. I never really liked listening to OSTs after the drama ends because I get sick of it very easily but for IHYV i am still listening to it! Not to forget about Lee Bo-young, i loved her character in the drama so much! Luckily she didn't lose her "bad ass" character after getting together with Su-ha, i was so afraid she will become like any other female leads with the crying and stuffs.
(i also love dramabeans! i always read your recaps and it feels like somebody is watching together with me hehe)

I would like Monstar OST. I felt like I could connect with them on certain level being that they are the same age as me but other than that, it was really their ost that captured my heart and lead and to watch the dramas, sometimes with tears falling.

I would love to win the Gu Family Book OST and DVD. For a couple years now I've been trying to share my k-drama love with my family, but it's kind of hard when they live several states away. When Gu Family Book started airing, I knew it would be the type of story my mom would love, and I really wanted to watch it with someone, so I asked my mom to watch it "with" me. We worked out a system where we watched two episodes every week (not the most current episodes, we're actually really far behind) and call each other to talk about the episodes every Monday night.

It's been so awesome sharing my k-drama love with my mom. We spend a good amount of time discussing what happened that week and even fangirling a little! Tonight we're actually going to discuss the finale, which I haven't watched yet, and I'm so excited! Anyway, it's been such a great experience and such a fun ride, particularly because of how much fun Gu Family Book is to watch.

Whether or not I win, thank you for the opportunity and the recaps! I've been able to share your added tidbits with my mom as part of the fun.

OMG MONSTAR! you know that moment when you watch the first twenty or so minutes of a drama and fall in love at first glace, that was monstar for me. The horrible thing was, that only one episode had aired when i had started, and the subs took unbelievably long to come out as no one had, as of then, loved it so. I fell in love with the characters instantaneously, especially seolchan and seyi, they are just the cutest. and the men, unf, they all looked so fiinnne. and that btob shower scene, feuhsdjb. loved all the songs too, hence my request for the soundtrack. it was a light happy drama, and had some serious themes, delivering them so well, and allowed you to laugh and smile in each episode. It was one of those dramas that you just get so invested in and attached to, and when the subs werent out, you watched it without them because that is how desperate you are. you constantly think of it, and when the previews came out, rewatched it 9214 times, and then found the courage to beg your korean friend to translate it, even though you knew how much theyd judge you. It was that one thing that i looked forward to every week, constantly anticipating the next episode as i had ten minutes left of the previous. but then, as the following episodes aired, i found myself wishing time would also slow down as the drama progressed, as the further we got the closer it would be to it ending. First drama i watched this year, was on hiatus due to study, but this became an exception. Monstar was the source of happiness to my life, even with the stress of studying, i always somehow found time for it, if not i would have gone mad. To have poster up on my wall and listen to the songs on repeat would just be fabulous. X

I loved "Gu Family Book" except for the not-so-smooth ending. It was quirky, funny and sexy and had me really rooting for most of the characters (especially the 2nd leading ones) - which doesn't happy too often. Loved the music and the overall feeling of the production, especially in the early episodes!
So you'd make me really happy with the "Gu Family Book" OST!^^~

Hi! ^^
First of All, I really love the drama Gu Family Book. I'm a fan of Historical dramas and I love this drama because of it's plot. It is a drama worth it to be praised. This drama made my free time go away. Not to mention that I'm a big fan of Lee Seung Gi. It was a really fascinating story and its not that cliche. It was a sad thing for me that it ended with only 24 episodes. Although I hated magical things or watcha-ma-call-it, I loved it after watching this.

I loved how the cast really acted the story. The special effects, you know some dramas have a bit old style of making the effects but in this drama, the special effects worked. It seemed like that mythical creatures really exist, but still it is just a drama.

The female lead. Oh how I love her character. She's strong and caring. Not to mention that she really looked and acted like a boy in some parts of the drama.

All in all, this drama made me think that historical dramas are really interesting. Gu Family Book made me realize that dramas with mythical creatures and stuff can be a little bit fun to watch.

Monstar

I loved all the songs performed on the show and I loved how every song fit whatever the story line called for. A good OST is one where you enjoy all the songs, a great one is where every song evokes an emotion so much so that just listening to it pulls you back into the feelings you felt while watching. Monstar has a great OST.

Dear Javabeans and Girlfriday,

I would like to win the Monstar OST + Poster, because I absolutely loved that show. Even after all these weeks that the show has been finished, I still find myself thinking about it, and I'm still a little torn up about how it ended for Nana. The show really spoke to my heart and has left a lasting impression on me in the way of how I view dramas. Why can't all dramas be as whimsical and thought out as Monstar was? Not to mention the characters were so relatable, especially Se-yi. Something about her just tugged at my heartstrings from the get-go, and didn't let go until the end.

Even if I don't win, thank you ladies for being so awesome, and feeding my love of Korean dramas, music, and the Korean culture.

With heartfelt thanks,

Abbie

I love gu family book. I want to add this in my collection. I'll hope I can won the CD because I'm not that kind of person who can afford buying and importing products outside or even ordering in internet. But if I win this CD of Gu Family Book, I will treasure it forever. because of this drama, I've meet this website. I hope I can have the CD. Thank Dramabeans.

I want the Flower Boy Next Door OST! ^_^
This was my first K-drama that I watched while it was still airing. Before that, all the dramas I watched were complete. I learned how hard it is to wait A WHOLE WEEK, for the next episodes. I think I learned to be more patient thanks to this drama. I have watched it another two times again after it ended. xD That and I love Park Shin-hye~ My favourite actress! <3 Yoon Si-yoon and Kim Ji-hoon and the rest of the Flower Boys are so cute and awesome. :D It's a very special drama to me, I would love to have it's OST~

I really want to win the Monstar OST!

It was my first musical drama and I thought it was really awesome, especially in terms of soundtracks! Overall, the drama was some lighthearted fun mixed in with teenage angst...AND CUTENESS, plus humour. I thought it was great, the music was unique and it would be great to listen to the songs on replay...and listening to Ha Yeon Soo's voice! ^_^ That was what really stood out for me in terms of music. Also, I really liked how each character had a previous musical background and it brought a whole new level to the show. This drama made an impact on me, and I discovered another awesome genre! So to win the OST would be great! ^^

I would love to own the Monstar OST. Monstar was an unexpected gem that hit all the right notes. Monstar led me on a beautiful and sincere journey of first love, friendship and growing up. Although Seol Chan, Se Yi, Sun Woo, Eun Ha, Do Nam, Na Na and Kyu Dong were all fractured in their own ways, they were able to find common joy in music and discover a life changing friendship! With the possesion of the Monstar OST, this will allow me to take a walk once more with Color Bar and to experience their passion and love for music!

I would like to have the flower boy next door OST :) I really love how the writer wrote so many good lines in this drama.. they were spot-on and as a female the writer really know how we feel.. what we want to hear and what we experiencing. I have somehow the same feeling as Dok Mi but I wasn't bullied.. I just don't like the feeling of being talked about that's why I would rather be alone. I would rather isolate myself than being with people who would let me feel alone.

This drama made me think that even though I can't interact with the boys right now (yes I'm still single at the age of 22 and only had 1 boyfriend for 2 weeks via cellphone lol) I can still find someone who would love me. A boy would let me out of my comfort zone and make me go to places, make me do interesting things I've never done before. One day I'll be brave and I know that day will come.

Thank you for this opportunity.. for me to be able let this out. I love the songs from this drama and I know that whenever I listen to them.. I would remember what this drama made me feel.

I would love to win the Flower Boy Next Door! It's the 3rd Flower Boy series and it was awesome as well. I love Go Dok-Mi's character coz somewhat I can relate to her to some extent, being an introvert but still want to explore the outside world.

Kim Ji-hoon and Park Shin-hye did great job potraying the roles. But I was really surprised with Yoon Shi-yoon. I had never like his previous dramas, never finished one except this. He portrayed the character well, now I'm a fan :)

I would like to win the ost of flower boy next door. This is a very special drama to me not only because I found the main character so relatable, but it is also the first kdrama I watched with my sister. I have always found it hard to interact with strangers, which makes Dokmi a lot more relatable than most kdrama heroines. Her character is basically what I am like in real life. Although I am shy and timid on the outside, I am not really like that at home. I fight and argue a lot with my sister because we are just so different in many ways. We have different tastes in almost everything. One day, I forced her to watch this drama with me and from then on, our relationship got a lot better. This was her first kdrama ever and now she is addicted to them just like me! We often sit together to watch kdramas until like 3 in the morning and we dont regret it one bit. I'm moving away for college soon but i wont remember all the fun times we had laughing, crying and spazzing together and its all because of this drama. This drama really helped us find a connection and helped us bond as sisters. The OST of this drama would really be a great present for us!

Each had great OST. I cant choose between them. But Monstar did stole till the very end of my heart. Haha. I was not interested at the beginning, even Kang Ha Neul was in it. But then i decided to watch after the series end. Because you recaping it, so i believe that it was good. And voilaa! It was adoreable in every details possible.

I laughed, i frowned, i sing along, and mostly..i'm blushing..pink-eu pink-eu :")

And until now...i still cant get over seolchan..even now i think i'm a b2uty. :")

Honestly, Flower Boy Next Door and Monstar were my favorite two K dramas in 2013! I am going to be greedy and put on two entries because it is very hard to choose one out of two loves.

Flower Boy Next Door was my love in the beginning of the year 2013. It was a refreshing simple intimate story about characters that are true to life, just like a commoner like me and my next door neighbors. Well, it is rare but will be great to meet a cheerful cute unique guy like Enrique in real life, haha.

I like the emotions and meaningful little life lessons that are shown in every episodes, through the life snippets of our characters, the unspoken dialogues and Go Dok Mi's writings. I could identify with Go Dok Mi's traits and her worries as I used to have similar experience in the past. Seeing Enrique and Jin Rak different ways of assistance to Dok Mi, and how Dok Mi blossomed, is a satisfying rite of passage for me as well.

Besides making me warm and sometimes sad, every week, Flower Boy Next Door did not fail to make me laugh so hard that my housemate thinks I am out of my mind.

Since then, I had recommended this drama to my family and my friends. After the shows end, I had withdrawal symptoms for a while which indicated how emotionally involved I was with the drama.

Flower Boy Next Door all the way!

The giveaway I'd love to win would be the Flower Boy Next Door soundtrack + DVD + Photobook. I still remember the first time they announced Park Shin Hye's new drama and I was overjoyed as the cast members kept coming. As soon as I watched the first episode I was hooked. It was such an amazing drama and I fell in love with Yoon Shi Yoon. Every week I would anticipate every episode they released and would smile with the characters, or would cry with them. It was such a great drama that was cute, funny and adorable. I can't believe it's been so long since I would rush home from school to anxiously see if the new episode had been released. I would be just overjoyed if I was able to receive the giveaway! Wishing the best of luck to everyone else entering!!

I'd love to win I hear your voice OST.
Although the drama itself has many good points, for me it is just a drama I won't forget. I know it because after years of watching Asian dramas (specially Korean ones), while there are a lot that I thought were great, and a bunch that I loved, they are just stories that I enjoyed watching and was glad to spend my time on. But there are a few that stick with me no matter what 'cause at some point they stopped feeling like just somebody else's story and started influencing my life in different ways. I hear your voice is one of those dramas.
While for some people it is a masterpiece and for others it is just an average drama, for me it holds a special meaning. I am a law student, have been for three years now, and really, after all the pressure, obligations, endless studying and exam craziness over these past years, my motivation level was in a perpetual decadent state. But sometimes, I find little spotlights that make me remember that I’m doing something that I love and that, although things may be crazy right now, this is a craziness I like being part of. I hear your voice is one of those little spotlights, one that shone right over me.
I’m not saying that now I suddenly feel like a superwoman because of this drama, but the stories that make me feel like they have helped me out in life are the ones I keep close to me, to remind me of these little things they have given me.

I really want the OST for I Hear Your Voice... The OST are really great and and have already become my favorite OST among the others. Apart from that, I Hear Your Voice is my favorite drama of all time since it first aired on SBS. I admit that initially I watch it because of Lee Jong Seok, but then the story line and the characters left me impressed! Even now, I still watch the drama for countless of time and sometimes even before the subtitle is out. Besides, since I am a law student, I really engaged with the court scene, particularly on how a good lawyer should be, and this drama has taught me a lot of life lesson; in which faith is the one that put people together, and no matter how bad you are or even if you are a monster, with a little faith, you will become a true person.

Hi guys! I would LOVE to win the I Hear Your Voice OST.

I am a major kdrama addict and so it is pretty difficult for a drama to be on my all time top 3 favourite drama list. But my goodness, I hear your voice topped my list effortlessly. My friends were strongly recommending me to watch this drama at first, but knowing my impatience and inability to wait for the next episode to air, I decided to wait for all the episodes to be out before starting my IHYV marathon.

It was so good I watched the whole drama in less than a day. (first time ever) Almost every scene in the show left a big impact on me. I felt and emphasised with each and every one of the characters, held my breath when Min Joon Gook appeared, had a silly grin plastered on my face when Soo Ha and Hye Sung were being cute and cried bitterly with Hye Sung at her mother’s funeral.

There wasn’t a single unnecessary character in the show (which is a very rare occurrence for kdramas) and all the characters were well portrayed and acted out. Every scene was also well thought out and this has to be one of the only dramas ever that doesn’t have scenes we all want to fast forward.

After watching the show, I still craved for more and thus went onto dramabeans to read the recaps of all the episodes. Despite having just watched finish the drama, I didn’t look past any paragraphs as I read as every scene still had me captivated despite knowing what’s going to happen.

I hear your voice left such a HUGE impact that I thought and still think about it frequently. I don’t think there will ever be another drama that can make me so emotionally attached to it like IHYV can. This is the only show that I can gladly and proudly give a rating of 10/10. I love love love the OST too and would thus love to win the prize!

I would like to win the I Hear Your Voice OST! This is the first K-drama that I love so much that I watch it via live stream. Also, I'm so addicted to it that I re-watched the subbed version and all the interviews/variety shows that they appear on everyday during my free time until the new episodes for the week were aired. Now, I watch it on cable TV and the repeat broadcast whenever I am home! I love the chemistry among the cast, the pace of the plot and I love that the characters were all so well-developed throughout the show! I also learnt many valuable life lessons from the show. Overall this show is just too awesome; I've yet to watch anything else that makes me feel as much as this show does!

Monstar was my second love in 2013, thanks to Dramabeans' recommendation. I have watched numerous drama since Flower Boy Next Door, but didn't felt a connection until Monstar came along.

I was hooked to Monstar the moment I saw it. I did not recognized most of the actors except Kang Ha Neul in To the Beautiful You, even then I could not recall which character he acted. Yet the unknown characters, their stories and the songs captured my heart really quickly.

I fell for Monstar quick and hard. All the characters were down to earth, genuine, cool, cute and interesting. Their stories and woes again, were easy to identify with. The music and the singing were incorporated seamlessly. And yes, it is a great gift that they can all sing and play instruments.

I had withdrawal symptoms days after watching an episode: wanting to learn to play the guitar, rewatching music videos of the solo/duet/group signing, finding youtube behind the scenes, OST playing in my head any time uncontrollably and emotionally invested in the multi-directional puppy love.

Monstar, a genuine heartful musical drama that allowed me to reminiscence the innocence, energy, friendship and the beauty of the lost youth I once had.

I Hear Your Voice OST. It's my favorite drama of this year so far which is so unexpected. I thought I would love Gu Family or Flower Boy or Alice, but IHYV is the one that really surprised me with it's sweetness and a hero and heroine who didn't annoy me at all. I really loved everyone in the drama, including the villain. This drama never truly faltered from start to finish. I'm just so grateful I started reading the recaps here and decided to watch. Otherwise, I would have missed this experience altogether because I was never interested in watching the drama prior to the recaps. So, thanks again Dramabeans!

I want to enter for the I Hear Your Voice OST.

The reason I fell so in love with this drama was because it echoed something I've wanted to have as a child....the ability to hear other people's thoughts. I've always been an avid fan of superheroes and super abilities, and as the first korean drama that has portrayed this I Hear Your Voice holds a special place in my heart.

Not to mention the OST was amaaazing!!

Thanks!

Watching Korean drama series has been a part of my life since Winter Sonata Since then, I’ve seen a lot. Some I love… some I hate, some disappointing… some inspiring. Admittedly, I’m a typical sucker for happy endings. I used to be a victim of tragic endings like Bali, Bad Guy, Iris. Etc .etc… I couldn’t sleep thinking about why a particular drama ended that way… I’d get so mad, I want to slap somebody to oblivion (probably the writer?) Thanks to Dramabeans… now I read before I watch. I did with I HEAR YOUR VOICE... for this year, I think IHYV is the best so far. I am not particularly crazy about a May-December love affair kinda plot, specially when the lady is older than the guy… but this drama made me realize there’s hope for a 12-year age difference. The leads, LBY and LJS were able to deliver a palpable chemistry on screen by portraying their characters soooo well, I was convinced of their love for each other. I find LJS so good looking when he’s with LBY and likewise, LBY looked so gorgeous when she’s with LJS. They bring out the best in each other on screen… it was the perfect tandem for the story. Coupled with some of the most beautiful songs I’ve heard… so melodious, it remained in my head long after I’ve heard it. The mere fact that I don’t understand a word of it, I still find it very charming and moving…especially Jung Yeop’s “ Why did you just come now” and “The words you can’t hear” (sorry, I don’t know the artist bus he really sounds great!) . In fact I think almost all of the songs helped establish the mood of the drama as it progresses. To sum it all, this 18-episode long Korean drama gives off a happy, giddy, exciting experience worth my while. As of today, I’m watching it the 2nd time…great stress reliever.

I would love to have The Flower Boy Next Door OST.
There are many reasons why I love this drama and chief among them is that I relate to Park Shin Hye's character Dok Mi in a very personal degree.
I too am a writer and there was a time due to being betrayed by people I had worked hard to help, I shut myself up at home and refused to go out for the smallest things.
I once was very outgoing and loved hanging in a crowd but now I'm wary and feel restless unless I am with people I know very very well.
In some small ways, Kegeum's cutesy way of dragging Dok Mi out into the world really touched my heart and whenever I feel depressed, I go back to the series and watch it again.
Also, I adore the supporting cast and J-Rabbit!! :)

yay!

I like to get the Gu OST. It will help appease my displeasure on its ending.

I honestly love the acoustic version of "Best Wishes to You" by Choi Jin Hyuk. It felt that it was actually Wol-ryung (well because its Choi Jin Hyuk) who is singing it to Seo-hwa while she dies on his arms. It was so fitting and I cried a lot.

I would really like to own the I Hear Your Voice OST just because the drama was simply amazing and too great for words! Honestly speaking, it was the first 2013 drama that I watched with SO much love and anticipation. None of the dramas that came out since early 2013 impressed me nor made me think about them literally all the time; until IHYV came out. Every week it made my heart thumped like crazy. I've never watched currently-airing/ongoing/while-it-is-still-airing drams because I can't be bothered waiting each week for 2 episodes or I'll likely lose interest in the middle of waiting for those episodes to come out. But ever since I saw the pilot (and amazed with the solid plot setup), I actually waited every week and watched it from start to end, without feeling bored. It even inspired me to make a kdrama-dedicated-sort of blog (although neglected halfway, but still, its origin came to life thanks to IHYV).

The heroine, Jang Hye Sung was so fantastic. The drama was relatable in all aspects of life and touched me deep down to the bones. Even though the drama ended weeks ago, my memory of it remains fresh and has left me feeling sentimental and I know this is going to sound cheesy, but dare I say it– has become a part of me. Jeong-mal-yo. (Excuse my romanization, ahem :D)

And plus, how can I forget the awesome song that played after each ending?

Hands down, favourite drama of the year.

I would like to win the Gu Family Book OST.
While I wasn't a complete fan of the main Seunggi - Suzy pairing, I loved the parents story. It was just done so tragically and beautifully. It's also the reason why i keep listening to the 4men track on YouTube. I just love the MV so much!
