especially winter sonata is really popular and the main character (they call him yon-sama in japan :hehe: ) is reeeeally popular. when he visited japan there were like 5000 women waiting for him at the airport..and most of them where like over 40 years old :P

Yeah, Kdramas are a big hit in asia these days. Not as popular as anime though but more than jdramas, imo.

That's true and I can never understand why. :shakehead:

"I'll ask her to make love to me, but she'll reject me, saying, 'Look at that protruding belly; that's why Japanese men are no good,'" he whines. "And when I persisted she pulled away violently. We haven't had sex for over a month."


Hahahahaha.

LOL!! maybe thats why..man its a drama..are there really guys like that? o_O i havent seem dramas so im not sure..guys are all the same ..nah they're not really LOL..maybe some just act the same and give off dat image !! :shocked: ..different race doesnt make a difference!!! maybe if how they're raised..but its naturally inside them.. :doh: or its not..LOL..man i dont evne know :shakehead: !! but interesting articles :sweat:

i thinks its coz of the plot. Kdrama plots tend to have a bit simpler more down-to-earth plots with focus on romance (and yes, more often than not, there's that death by cancer thing going on). Jdramas on the other hand usually tends to deal more with complex issues (abortion, rape, prostitution); subjects that are usually uncomfortable for ppl in conservative cultures...

Have to admit, I started out with jdramas but I'm watching a lot more kdramas lately. Series like bodyguard, punch, lover in paris, Ms kins 1 billion won project and love letter are on my most wanted list right now. On the other hand, only the jdrama series Trick is what i'm looking forward to. well, maybe inspector mariko as well.

i like Kim Jung Eun
she's so pretty..
i wanna watch lovers in paris !!!! i heard its good

I want it!!!! but is it subbed?

where can i get torrents for these korean movies? i've watched the classic and its a really great movie. so i hope you guys tell me where i can get torrents for these movies and um... maybe the Original Soundtrack?
