Has anyone seen the following:

Seoul 1945(I think dangermousie asked about it at one point, but I can't remember if snyone chimed in about it, and I don't remember ever seeing other posts about it. Also, are there ANY subs for it besides on the Chinese release DVDs?)
Fashion '70s
Seo Dong Yo/Ballad of Suhdong/Potato Boy
Dae Jang Geum/Jewel of the Palace(ok,

I have Seoul 1945. The subs are supposed to be decent but I can check if you like once I get access to the DVDs again.

I have Fashion 70s but haven't seen it.

I'd love it if you could check.

Once Upon A Time has me craving Korean period dramas set in the 30s-40s(Yes, I know, CS...)

I'm so glad they play well. I'll start burning Coffee Prince sometime next week. Enjoy!

Daddy Long Legs sounds interesting. I heard it's different than the usual version?

I haven't seen the original DLL, so I don't know about the differences. What I saw, though, was good. I didn't finish it because I wasn't in the mood, but I will later.

I watched Dae Jang Geum ages ago. It's a bit slow, perhaps the same pace as Jumong. It was my first sageuk and I really enjoyed it. The main characters (yes, both good and evil ones), the storyline, and the romance too (it's not the main focus, though, which is what you prefer, right?). I think you'll like it! :)

I think Jumong's pacing is supposed to be similar to that of Emperor of the Sea, so I should be fine there. Sageuks seem to do a good job all around of making all the characters interesting, instead of just having good guys and bad guys.

I also have Fashion 70s, but haven't watched it yet. I've only skimmed through the discs to check that they are working and listened to the OST that came with the set a few times :).

Well, at least I know the music is probably pretty good.
