which Korean Drama to watch?

[shreya]

I've been addicted to k-dramas of late. And need a new one to watch.
I prefer plenty of romance, action is good too. Good ending as well.

Here are the ones I've seen

City Hunter (brilliant! except ending was too prompt, still i love lee min ho)
49 days - loved it!
Full House - all time fav
Princess Hours / Goong
Secret Garden
Sungkyankwan Scandal - dropped after like the 10th ep
Lie to Me - kinda dropped after 10th episode
Iljimae
Protect the Boss - watching now, but a bit slow.
Man of Honor - watching now, seems good so far.

I found the Boys Over Flowers heroine too annoying despite Lee Min Ho being the lead.
Suggestions please
Japanese is fine too, but not Taiwanese. And something quite new probably. I don't need a huge list. 5 or 6 would do.
thanks!

I am going to recommend based on what you liked so far...

City Hunter (revenge-themed):
-Prosecutor Princess ---- same writer/director combo!
-I am Sorry, I Love You (MISA) ---- Classic!!!!!!!!
-Cain and Abel
The following are strong revenge-themed, and might be too heavy but they are definitely masterpieces:
-The Devil
-Rebirth (same writer as The Devil)
-Hon (this is a ghost story...but very interesting)
Here's a cute action-type one:
-Sweet Spy

Princess Hours/Goong + Full House (young, trendy, light-hearted):
-Coffee Prince
-My Girlfriend is a Nine-Tailed Fox
-Greatest Love
-You're Beautiful
-Hong Kildong (teeny bit heavy)
-Fantasy Couple
-Q-girl Chunhyang (My Girlfriend ~ Q-girl = all same writers)
-My Love Patzzi
-18.29
-God of Study
-Personal Preference (with Lee Minho)

Secret Garden (classic):
-Lovers in Paris
-Queen Seonduk
-Stairway to Heaven
-I'm Sorry, I Love You
-On Air (same writer)

Hi, since i have seen so many korean dramas i can suggest you some:


Coffee Prince/Playful Kiss/Mary stayed out all Night/Personal Taste/King Of Baking, Kim Tak Goo/Bad Guy/East Of Eden/Prosector Princess/Cindarella's Sister/Queen Seon Duk/Bad Love/Iris/My Girl/Take Care Of The Young Lady. Those are the top rated dramas of all time.


49 Days, The Princess' Man, City Hunter, Myung Wol The Spy, Ojakgyo Brothers, Scent Of A Woman, A Thousand Kisses, A Thousand Days' Promise, Man of Honor, Flower Boy Ramyun Shop . Those are newly popular dramas.


My personal favs are 49 Days, City Hunter, King Of Baking Kim Tak Goo(romance/comedy), Bad Guy(romance/mystery), and Ojakgyo Brothers(romance/family). All of these have Amazing Story Lines, great actors, and good acting.


hope this helps
