Top Picks: Korean Drama

Korean Drama (k-drama): A form of T.V. serial made in South Korea, often short full written stories with endings. Western series tend to continue till they stop making money, so the story never ends. However K-drama has a set story, and only goes so far as to tell it, often leading to 20 or so episodes only.

Panda And Hedgehog

A love story, with a mysterious past, a quest for revenge and best of all, PASTRIESSS!!!! The creativity shown in this show makes you want to make pastries or find one of these shops (I live in a rural area :( ). The main characters are fun to watch and enjoyable to see together, and the cooking that takes place is also tasty.

City Hunter

A story all about revenge, which leads to love and a battle of right and wrong with morals. You have a highly skilled/trained man, dishing out revenge by finding those responsible for his fathers betrayal, and instead of killing he finds it in himself to bring them to justice by bringing their bad sides into the public light. Hes also hiding his identity as he gets a day job at a national network security center (blue house). Theres many funny moments as the love story is between him and a presidential bodyguard.

Holyland (2005)

This story, is similar to the manga Tiji-kun, you have a guy who masters an attack, and only that attack but is soon forced to learn others under pressure. Make no mistake, I said similar not the same, they are both very different, for one Holyland is very realistic with its fights, and has a deeper meaning rooted in reality as well. Its a fantastic tv show. There is also another Holyland (I think spelled with two words instead of one) that was made in 2012, its a newer remake of this, but I have not see it yet.

The Strongest K-POP Survival

The guy on the bottom has no idea the guy on top of him is actually a girl, lol.

This story has amazing and fun music, and a crazy love story where a girl is pretending to be a guy, and a guy falls for her thinking shes a guy and goes a little crazy thinking hes gay (Coffee prince is another good one). I love the struggles she goes through to keep her secret while living with a bunch of other guys and trying to survive training to become a star.

My Love From Another Star

This is the latest Korean drama I have watched, and it blew my mind. Its a scifi love tale between a 400 year old alien and an aging actress who resembles someone he knew in his past. Its a touching love story with the fun of super powers (time stopping and more) and a mysterious rich man working as a professor. Things get real crazy as people try to kill the actress, and once or twice try to kill him. The ending was amazing, and surprising.

Healer

This one is a secret favorite of mine. It has the fun story vibe of Panda and Hedgehog while have that fake, and hilarious "forbidden" love interest of one of the main characters all the while keeping that warm feeling in my heart. As the title tells, this story centers around a particular business involving mainly coffee, a small cafe, and a mans mission to not, lol, loss his fun and happy go lucky life style as his grandmother requires he either gets married, or is successful. Our two main characters happen to meet before this dilemma. In the obvious fun manner our main girl is taken as a guy, and used by our main guy to pose as gay to avoid marriage interviews.
