Korean Dramas That I Currently Watch

During the last two months, I really don’t watch any dramas at all because my college assignment. While midterm I utilize my time to study (of course) and watching drama hahaha. I’ll explain a little about dramas that I currently watch.

1.      Lucky Romance (운빨로맨스)

The drama has just released 6 episodes. The story is pretty good, interesting, and very funny I think. The reason I watch this drama is actually because the main cast. I just found out this drama is based on webcomic. I was really amazed with the technology in this drama. I also really like the visual of game that created by Soo-Ho. This drama aired on MBC every Wednesday & Thursday at 22:00 KST.

PLOT

Bo-Nui (Hwang Jung Eum) works various part-time jobs to support herself and pay her younger sister's, Bo-Ra (Kim Ji Min), hospital bills. Her younger sister has been in a coma for the past 2 years because of a car accident. Bo-Ra is also Bo-Nui's only immediate family member as their parents died in a separate car accident. Bo-Nui is a firm believer in fortune tellers after an encounter when her younger sister was first hospitalised. At that time, Bo-Nui was standing right outside of the hospital and crying. A fortune teller (Kim Jong Goo) came up to her. The fortune teller knew all about her situation without Bo-Nui saying anything. He told her that those around her were all hurt because of her fate. The fortune teller also told Bo-Nui that if she wanted to save her sister she must perform a specific ritual. After performing the ritual, Bo-Nui went back to the hospital and learned her sister has survived, but she is in a vegetative state.

Now, Bo-Ra's condition has worsened and the doctor tells Bo-Nui to give up hope for a recovery. Bo-Nui refuses to give up hope. She turns to the fortune teller for help. The fortune teller tells Bo-Nui that there's only one thing that can save her sister. Bo-Nui must have a one night stand with a man born in 1986 - the year of the tiger.

Meanwhile, Soo-Ho (Ryoo Joon Yeol) is the CEO of Zeze Game Company. He is smart, but also arrogant. On the day he is to give a presentation for a new game, he continually bumps into Bo-Nui in unpleasant ways. Soo-Ho's presentation turns into a complete failure due to trauma from his childhood past and bad code intentionally placed into the game. Later, Soo-Ho again sees Bo-Nui's out in the public, but she is drunk. Bo-Nui grabs Soo-Ho and repeatedly asks him if he was born in the year of the tiger. Soo-Ho tells her that he was born in 1986 (the year of the tiger).

2.      Another Miss Oh (또 오해영)

I just watched this drama a week ago and I immediately watched up to 10 episodes (over two days hahahaha). This drama has a high rating so I’m curious "Who is the main cast?". And when I find out, the main actor is ERIC! Yes it’s ERIC of SHINHWA! My handsome uncle, my favorite uncle omg u,u I decided to watch this drama and WOW I LOVE THE STORY! The story is very romantic and I really lost in the story. I feel hurt too when there are a conflicts. This drama aired on tvN every Monday & Tuesday at 23:00 KST.

PLOT

Oh Hae-Young (Seo Hyun Jin) is dumped by Han Tae-Jin (Lee Jae Yoon) on the day before their wedding. She is unable to tell the truth about what happened and lies to others about what happened. She works as an assistant manager for a company's restaurant division. She pretends that nothing happened.

Meanwhile, Park Do-Kyung (Eric) is a popular sound engineer. One year ago, he was supposed to marry Oh Hae-Young (Jeon Hye Bin), but she did not appear at their wedding. He became desperate. Later, he hears from his friend Lee Jin-Sang (Kim Ji Suk) that Oh Hae-Young is about to marry Han Tae-Jin. Park Do-Kyung gets drunk and places her fiancé in a difficult predicament. Park Do-Kyung is unaware that the fiancé is about to marry another woman named Oh Hae-Young. The fiancé is soon imprisoned and right before his imprisonment he lies to Oh Hae-Young. He tells her that he does not love her anymore, but he also vows to take revenge on Park Do-Kyung. For his part, Park Do-Kyung soon has visions of a woman he has never met. He soon realizes the woman is another Oh Hae-Young.

3.      Entertainer (딴따라)

I watched this drama since this drama release. I'm really waiting for this drama because Minhyuk play here. Although I felt strange to see the main couple (Jisung and Hyeri) because their age is quite far. Everytime I see Jisung I instantly "He’s Lee Bo Young’s husband". This drama has a lot of conflict. The most intriguing is the mystery behind the case of rape allegedly committed by Ha-Neul. The mystery will be revealed slowly. The acting of actors and actresses here is quite satisfied me. Their acting not made me feel strange. I just unhappy with the Hyeri’s gaze. This is only my personal problem but it doesn’t make this drama bad. This drama aired on SBS every Wednesday & Thursday at 22:00 KST.

PLOT

Shin Suk-Ho (Ji Sung) works for Top Entertainment Company as a director, but he is about to start his own company Mango. He will take with him the boy group Jakson who are bout to end their contract with Top Entertainment Company. Lee Joon-Suk (Jeon No Min) is the CEO of Top Entertainment Company and he will not let Shin Suk-Ho start his own company. He orders Kim Joo-Han (Heo Joon Seok) to create a dirty scheme. Due to the scheme, Suk-Ho gets locked up in prison for DUI and he loses the boy group Jakson to Top Entertainment Company. Without Jakson, Shin Suk-Ho's new company finds itself in a difficult situation. Suk-Ho goes to Busan to borrow money, but he gets humiliated. He becomes extremely frustrated by everything. At that time, he hears a private institute's promotional song. The song wakes him up and he walks over to the private institute to find out who sang the song.

In Busan, Ha-Neul (Kang Min Hyuk) is a high school student. His older sister is Geu-Rin (Hyeri). They are each other's only family members as their parents died in a car accident. Geu-Rin takes time off from college to work part-time. Ha-Neul is then falsely accused of sexual harassment by his female friend and he is placed on probation by the court. Ha-Neul decides to not go to college and to not sing which he wanted to do so much. Ha-Neul is also the person who sang the private institute's promotional song. The next day, Suk-Ho finds out the identity of the singer. He follows Ha-Neul. Ha-Neul, going through dark times because of the sexual harassment claim, stands on the ledge of a building. At that time, Suk-Ho tells Ha-Neul "Die later. Now you will do what you want to do. Sing."

4.      Beautiful Gong Shim (미녀 공심이)

The drama has just released 8 episodes. I’m curious about Minah’s acting because I’ve never seen her acting. I try to watch one episode and..... I FELL IN LOVE with Minah’s acting! There’s no strange feeling while seeing her acting. Minah plays her part well. The drama is quite funny. The main casts always fight and how their fight makes me laugh. Which makes me more like this drama is Joo Wan’s smile. I think I fell in love with him! Ah I don’t like Gong Mi’s character. She is a wolf in sheep's clothing! This drama aired on SBS every Saturday & Sunday at 22:00 KST.

PLOT

Love story of two sisters and two men. The older sister, Gong Mi (Seo Hyo Rim) has everything, including a beautiful appearance, and the younger sister, Gong Shim (Minah) only has a warm heart. One of the men lives on a rooftop apartment, Ahn Dan-Tae (Nam Gung Min) and the other man comes from a wealthy family, Suk Joon-Soo (On Joo Wan). Gong Shim and Gong Mi likes Suk Joon-Soo meanwhile Ahn Dan-Tae and Suk Joon-Soo likes Gong Shim because they think Gong Shim is cute.

5.      Signal (시그널)

I know this drama is already over. My friend always told me to watch this drama but at the time I didn’t have a time to watch and I was not interested with this drama. I'll tell why I suddenly want to watch this drama. One day Lee Je Hoon (main cast of this drama) comes to Running Man a few weeks ago and I liked him! He is handsome and have a good body omg hahahaha you should see him! At that time there was a piece about the detective, and I think it’s a scene from Signal (but apparently when I've watched three episodes of this drama, I just knew a scene on Running Man is not from this drama-_-). Ok back to this drama, I really like the story! BEST CRIME DRAMA I’VE EVER WATCHED!! I prefer the thrilling dramas btw. The storyline is forward and backward so you would have quite confused at first. A murder mystery will be opened one by one. This drama is one of my favorites drama!

PLOT

Hae-Young (Lee Je Hoon) works as a criminal profiler and is also a police lieutenant. Even though he is a cop, he doesn't trust cops due to his own past experience. Back in 2000, when Hae-Young was in elementary school, his classmate Yoon-Jung was kidnapped and later found dead. Hae-Young saw a woman taking Yoon-Jung from school that day, but the police announced that the suspect was a man. Hae-Young even went to the police station and told the police officers that he saw the kidnapper and she was a woman. The police officers though didn't pay attention to him. The killer was never caught and her case remains unsolved to this day.

Hae-Young meets a reporter at a cafe to reveal bombshells about a celebrity scandal. Meanwhile, veteran detective Soo-Hyun (Kim Hye Soo) is at the cafe staking out the meeting, unaware that Hae-Young is a cop. She arrests Soo-Hyun for stalking celebrities. While leaving the police station (the same police station he went to as a kid), Hae-Young hears someone talking to him. He looks around to find a walkie-talkie. The man who is talking to Hae-Young is Detective Jae-Han (Cho Jin Woong). The detective though is from the year 2000 and he is investigating the disappearance of Hae-Young's elementary school classmate. Hae-Young and Detective Jae-Han begin to communicate via the walkie-talkie.

You have to watch the dramas that I have mentioned above.
