Happy Birthday!!
You still look so young!! lol

Anyway, thanks for feeding our addiction and long live Dramabeans!!

Congratulations to my favorite site in the world!!! Any beanies from Japan? Let's celebrate with them!!!

Congratulations javabeans, girlfriday and the rest of the team. You truly are part of my K-drama addiction since 2005. I wish I could join and meet some of my co-DB readers unfortunately, I live outside the US. But I'll definitely send my love to everybody and hope to read the stories and see pictures from the party!

Congratulations for the 10th Dramabeans anniversary!

I've been an avid reader (and lurker) since 2009's Boys Over Flowers even though I've been watching KDramas years before that. I was googling for some BOF info out of boredom and bumbed into DB instead. And I was a goner. I've been here everyday since.

I've lurked for a while before started participating actively on You Are Beautiful thread. Writings became longer each day and it was such a joy to share opinions and giggles with other Beanies. I decided to share my little addiction during DB Addiction Story Giveway and I actually won haha (the story of the rats and me and Jang Hyuk). I still don't know whether to laugh or to feel embarrased about it. I still can't believe the extent I had went for Kdrama. And no, don't think I can do something THAT extreme now. *cringe*

Reality check brings me back to being a lurker and I only comment once in a while now. But DB is still on top of my bookmark list and I still come here everyday. It's my happy place and I'm glad it stays that way even after all these years.

So thank you for being here Dramabeans! And may you enjoy many more 10ths of Anniversaries!

Happiest 10th anniversary!

Dramabeans is my daily consumption for a sane and happy day thru and thru. I never imagine my daily life without DB. That's how great this place is..
Wow, I get teary writing this, but really, I honestly thank all of DB's founders and minions for all the hardwork. Bless you all..
Sending you love and great wishes for the upcoming years.

I've been here for the most part of the 10 years that dramabeans have been online.

I came across this site when I was looking up information about Dalja's Spring in 2007.

The site has gone through so many changes, so many good dramas and bad dramas have aired but what stayed the same is the good writing/articles that I have come to expect from this site.

I don't normally comment on dramas, I'm more of a lurker, but I would like to say a big THANK YOU for everything. This site and you guys.. javabeans, girlfriday and the rest of the crew have been a part of my life for the last 10 years.

To more years to come!!!

p.s.

I loved the drama podcasts especially those times that javabeans and girlrfiday had something to drink!

Happy 10th anniversary DB.

I'm here for around 2 years but I've read many old recaps like those of coffee prince, dal ja's spring. I enjoy knowing different perspectives from wider parts of the world.

Omg, oh how I'd love to attend this awesome event to celebrate with the Dramabeans staff and all you beanies! I mean, I guess I could buy a ticket to LA... eh, in any case, I can't believe it's been a whopping 10 years! Congratulations, my lovely Dramabeans! I love this website so so much and I've said it before, but I'll say it again: Dramabeans IS and will always be my (Korean) drama bible. It's my go-to site for Korean dramas and more! I'm so happy to have this site in my life and I literally check it every day. It's the first thing I check when I wake up and the last thing I check before I go to sleep. It's become a habit, really. I'm so excited for Dramabeans' makeover! I remember when y'all changed the design and formatting back then (with the horrendously made-up version of Go Eun-chan as the post's photo!) from the pink and blue to what it is now, so I can't wait to see a new look! Here's to 10 more years!

Congratulations!
And Happy 10th Anniversary!

Hi Dramabeans! I've been here since the Coffee Prince days.. tumbled upon this site looking for Coffee Prince recaps in year 2009 and been reading and watching K-dramas since. Thank you for all your hard work in recaping and updating us with Korean Drama news and being just a place where it is ok to squeal and sometimes rant about our beloved characters or stories!
Cheers to 10 Years and 10 Years more!

Wow, I loved reading this post! Congrats and happy 10 years!

But wahhh I want to go to the party so much but I'm all the way in Jersey. (See ya at KCon 2017?)

Congrats on 10 years, DB!! Seriously the best community ever for drama recaps. Love the staff and the beanies here. Can't remember when I started to check out this site and then began joining discussions since it seemed so long ago. Heehee... It's always my go-to source and I don't really hang out anywhere else. XD Many more amazing years to come!!

Congratulations Javabeans!

The fact that the site has grown so much since you first started 10 years ago is a testament to all your (and the crew's) hardwork.

Wishing you many more decades? of successful drama coverage and recaps.

HAPPY NEW YEAR!

Happy 10th Birthday, DramaBeans, and blessings on your ringleaders, minions, and worldwide band of Beanies!

*intones sageuk speech* Manse, manse, man manse!

I'll have to join the party in spirit from northern New Jersey, USA. Mazel tov!

I first became aware of DB in 2013 while desperately searching for serious discussion of THE KING'S DAUGHTER, SU BAEK-HYANG. I wanted so badly to understand the deeper implications of addressing the heroine as "unni" (a smoking gun in the plot). The length of the drama precluded recaps here, but I tucked the name of the site in the back of my mind, and when it came time to watch another Kdrama later in 2014, I remembered DramaBeans. I started out a lurker, and later discovered Open Thread, and eventually began live-watching and commenting on shows.

Thank you all -- from javabeans on out to the furthest-flung Beanie -- for enhancing my understanding and enjoyment of Korean dramas, films, OSTs, and even the odd bit of Kpop. It has been a blessing and pleasure to meet you all in our shared quest to analyze, discuss, squee over, and generally appreciate Korean language and culture (and performers!), which for many of us is a deeply mysterious matter of the heart. Truly, I sometimes wonder if we all have had past lives in Korea.

I'd also like to thank javabeans & accomplices for creating a haven on the Interwebs for often-hilarious discourse where civility and good manners is the norm. The high signal-to-noise ratio charms me, but it's the warmheartedness and conviviality that keeps me coming back. Please keep it up for as long as it remains the fun and unconventional job you engineered for yourself.

Thank you for inviting us all to join in the fun. ;-)

With warmest Aloha,
PakalanaPikake

Congratulations! I feel old too, and in way, feel like having grown old together with you! Yes, my white/gray hair are also a reminder of the passing of time! Found this site during the Coffee Prince days, was that Summer of 2007?!! I have pretty much been reading, sometimes participating, since the beginning!? I feel old... yet, still going. But I am glad this site is still around and going strong! I can't imagine life without Dramabeans... it just wouldn't be the same!? So again, Congrats and Thank You!

A most heartfelt "Thank you" doesn't seem sufficient enough to express my sincere love and appreciation for Dramabeans and the entire Dramabeans staff. ...... But I do thank each and every one of you ---- for your effort, your time, your dedication, for all you do.

I wish you health, happiness, success and many, many more years of Dramabeans. It's an absolute fact that the drama-vieweing experience wouldn't be the same without all of you and the Beanie community.

Happy 10th Anniversary!!

Congratulation !!! ??
I've been lurking in dramabeans since the glory days of BOF when this site named javabeans *cmiiw, been searching for anything related to the drama, and keep checking this site everyday since then, well thats confirm my ahjumma status ??
Hope dramabeans will always be there till the end, congratulation guys !!!

Congratulations!!

I remember finding this site when I was looking for Dal Ja's Spring torrents. That was before these streaming sites...which I now realize is starting to sound like a "back in my day," speech. Thanks for creating this site and helping me expand my knowledge on all things Korean drama related. I appreciate it.

Congratulations on your 10 year anniversary - Dramabeans!!

Discovered your site when I was looking for any Coffee Prince related stuff on the internet, and found your recaps and links to the OSTs. Ever since end of 2008, this site has been my reliable source of all the drama recaps, entertainment news updates. When it used to be just javabeans, then girlfriday joined, and finally now we have a whole troupe of committed minions, thank you all very much for your dedication in providing the kdrama fans with so much drama insights and laughter :).

Congratulations! I really enjoy going to this website to read news and recaps. Thank you very much! More years to come!

Man, i wish i could attend the meeting. Too bad it's on the other side of the globe and in the middle of the Financial rush for FY16. Or i swear i would have make everything to attend. i dont care i would have to speak English all the time or travel in a place i dont know at all. I can just see the fun and the mind blowing exchanges between beanies.

My expectations for your gathering are really high. i hope it will be as awesome as I imagine.

I wish you in advance a good birthday. You kind of remind me i also start my dramalife in the hot days of 2007's summer. (it was a welcome pleasant change instead of school life and exams), Still, with each day passing, i realize i'll keep on calling you sunbaes all my life. No matter how much drama i have seen, you two watch more than twice than me.

And here all my greetings for the new year. May it be a good year for drama, for Heath and for love.

Congratulations DB! Happy 10th Anniversary!~ ♡

I've been a lurker since 2010 (Secret Garden days) and this is probably my 2nd comment since then. This blog has been my survival guide in the Kdramaland. Thank you so much for all the hard work for these past 10 years!

Love from the Philippines ❤

Congratulations you guys and to all the beanies out there! I wish I could attend the party but I live all the way here in Kuwait, ME! ? I would really, really hope that you guys would consider coming up with some way to live stream the event.

Love from Kuwait! ??

Happy Anniversary Dramabeans! Been a lurker here since 2009 and have more recently, been leaving a few comments here and there. ^^

Thank you so much for creating this site for all of us to have a platform to appreciate Kdramas! And thank you for all your hard work!

♥ from the Philippines :)

Awww! Congratulations, congratulations!
Late last night I refinished Coffee Prince for the nth time, having also reread the recaps here. A sobbing mess for most of the second half.

Back then, half of the folks called you Sarah, and at the end of it all, you thanked your budding community for the almost 3,000 comments! What an achievement that must have been. Nobody else was in the game at that time. You had the recaps (then summaries) completed within 5 hours of airing,too, to feed your rabid audience.

Your fans have adored you longtime!

My god, you have achieved so freaking much. I am proud to know you and happy you and GF and Heads and Gummi and all the rest can live your dreams doing what you are good at and what you love. (You didn't even have to go abroad two, or three years, to prove yourself!)

cheers and congratulatiions!
