Re: My Queen. I find twdramas generally get less attention than j/kdramas (pity, say I!) and a lot of drama-watchers I know are caught in the BOF-fever, with not much room left for other dramas ( ... )

It is a pity! I think twdramas are fabulous as well!

I like Superstar Express a lot, but not enough to live watch it (I like very few dramas enough to live watch. The only one I've managed so far is BBF, and I'm behind on that even). I'll wait until the full series is out before I watch it seriously. I'm easily distracted, so watching stuff on viikii where I'll have to click to a different page to view the next part is not good; I almost always take random web surfing breaks in between, which leads to me losing interest fast.

For me, I like SE plenty, it's cute and adorable and everything (Rainie! JIRO! Squeeee!), but as much as I LOOVE idol dramas, I get sick of them occasionally. In fact, my favorite dramas ever are not typical idol dramas (stuff like Love Contract, Wish to See You Again, Summer Snow, etc). I think My Queen is a nice break from that. It's technically an idol drama, but not really. (I don't know if I'd call it an office drama per se, but then I don't know what you'd categorize as office drama. It's kinda like ( ... )

I finally give up - I must watch this "Defeated Queen" ASAP. WHere do you get subs/episodes from (if this is fine to ask).

I find that high-rated Korean and Japanese dramas always worked well for me, without any exception (well, apart from longer over 30 episodes Korean dramas that seem to be loved by Korean ratings. I can't watch anything as long to save my life). I more often find that my tastes are at odds with the on-line fandom, though not every time.

Yay! It's REALLY a good show, hopefully you won't be disappointed! Watch it, and share your views! I only know one other person (seven_trees) who's watching it, but she agrees that it's amazing!

It's still airing, so I watch them streaming at viikii. The episodes are here. Intangible Fansubs has 1-4 subbed already. You can find those here.

I haven't really paid attention to ratings in the past, but I DO know this drama is leading the ratings in Taiwan for sunday night against some other big dramas like Superstar Express.

I think my tastes are a little at odds with the fandom's as well. I tend to like most everything, but really love the ones that most people don't love. And I'm STILL loving Boys Before Flowers, fandom be damned!

Thank you!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I also still like BoF!!

If you see the results from ambergold's poll and the poll I did in dorama_chat (here: http://community.livejournal.com/dorama_chat/337394.html#cutid1 and here: http://community.livejournal.com/hydkorea/306790.html ) you would see that Jun Pyo and the rest are doing pretty well, I think it must be the corner of the fandom I happened to be that doesn't like him!

No problem! It's such a great show, more people should be watching it!

I'm in that corner of the fandom as well, because I think you're the only person on my flist who's still enjoying it! I'm happy about the polls though! Us BBF supporters may not be as vocal, but we have larger numbers ;P

Yay! I'm slowly turning everyone on to My Queen! I love it, and personally think it's amazing. The heroine is the show really makes it for me. She's amazing. (Plus, Ethan is realllly hot!)

Hopefully you'll like it!
