So, current viewing list

[dangermousie]

Plan to check out A Gentleman's Dignity (love the cast and the writer but 30+/40+ singletons interest me little whatever their gender).

Need to finish Love Rain (plan to binge on last four eps on the weekend).

I got more and more bored with King 2 Hearts so I am not even bothering to watch the last two eps.

Will be following Bridal Mask unless

Hmm, A Gentleman's Dignity? Not interested. When I saw the trailer and the whole red ribbon of fate thing, ugh, so tired. Like the potential bromance, but the cliches? No.

Love Rain is a maybe watch for me, outside of the OTP which I know you love, is the story compelling and/or makes sense?

King2Hearts, Man of Equator I saw some of and dropped. I found both boring in parts, and Man of Equator was so uneven, so in spite of some great acting by the male leads, the plot wasn't enough to interest me.

Dr. Jin? I think I'll just watch the jdrama.

Like you, waiting on raves for Ghost, but also Bridal Mask, Chaser.

I'll probably try Queen In Hyun's Man and God of War because of the rave reviews.

I Do, I Do, not interested unless it turns out to be fresh and original, like that's going to happen. Same with Big, although recent plot details have made me more curious to know what will happen

[dangermousie]

Well, LR is a romantic melodrama so there isn't much outside the OTP.

I keep hearing about The Chaser - what is it about?

[jamieguo48]

The Chaser - Detective Baek Hong-Suk (Son Hyeon-Ju) lost his 15-year-old daughter in a car accident and his wife died from shock shortly afterwards. Detective Baek Hong-Suk then searches for the truth related to his daughter's death and learns that her death is tied into a conspiracy.

Reporter Seo Ji-Won (Koh Joon-Hee) is the owner's daughter of a large corporation. She helps Detective Baek Hong-Suk to uncover the truth on his daughter's death. While covering the story, she finds out that her brother-in-law (Kim Sang-Jung), a top presidential candidate, is involved in corruption. Reporter Seo Ji-So comes into conflict between her family and the truth.

Thank you

I found A Gentleman's Dignity to be so fresh and fun! Perfect for summer!

Sorry to hear that King 2 Hearts bores you. It has officially become my all time favourite kdrama. I don't know why, it's a very insane love and I am waiting to get my hands on the official DVDs.

[dangermousie]

Yes, I am adoring AGD even though it's normally not my thing. So cute!

Tried A Gentleman's Dignity and found it wanting. The 1st two episodes were quite fun and I liked the bromance but KHN's character drove me up the wall. I just wanted to smack her.... hard. She was SO frustrating and too much of an irritant for me to continue watching this. So instead of AGD I'll check out The Chaser which sounds much more up my alley.

Bridal Mask I'm really looking forward to.... I hope it won't dee-saa-point....

TEM was rather uneven but the wonderfull acting, cinematography and most of the script not sucking more than made up to it. The PD was a bit too fond of overly enhancing certain scenes but other than that he seemed to know what he was doing. The music PD on the other hand would have been best left where they found him/her.

I'm about 10 episodes behind in GoW as the subs come out so slowly. I could watch it raw I suppose but as I'm not in a hurry I'll just rather wait. I've got enough stuff to watch as it is.

QIHM is still my darling even if the last two episodes had a few blemishes. Kind of dreanding and

[dangermousie]

Awww, I actually liked KHN - normally this character would drive me nuts but for someone reason I loved her.

I haven't heard anything about The Chaser? What is it about.

So curious what your take is on BM

[timescout]

IDK, the character just rubbed me totally in the wrong way. I didn't much care for the leading man either. Kim Min Jong was by far my fave. If this drama had been about him I'd probably still be watching it

[dangermousie]

Heh, more JDG for me :)

The Chaser sounds gooooood.

[usisblog]

A Gentleman's Dignity: I was so disapointed with the first episode. I don't like this kind of stories. Bores me to dead. KHN was better than I thought but she can't outwit the script. JDG surprised me since I know he can do better, a lot. And his haircut don't suit him. He isn't 30 anymore

[dangermousie]

Awww, I surprised myself liking AGD when I almost never like this type of drama. Will see how it goes.

K2H - everyone raves about it so I keep quiet but after ep 6, it was downhill downhill downhill. Plus, the insano politics made no sense.

Dr. Jin is silly but fun.

[jennyhime]

Ah, poor dr. Jin. All the reviews I've read so far are blasting it to pieces. I mean I'm having a hilarious time reading the recaps. but I might give it a go because of LBS.
Well, in this case the Japanese version will reign supreme.
Ghost, no interest. LYH is good in cute and quirky roles otherwise she quite meh.
God of war, I'm so behind but it's so good. I have to marathon it some weekend.
I have to try AGD.
As for jdoraman, W no higeki is excellent. I'm not a fan of Takei Emi but here she's just amazing. The story is dark and twisted and I can guess the ending will be tragic.

[dangermousie]

Even I, enjoying Jin though I am, do not think it's a good drama :)
