Korean Drama

Though I am slower as usual in catching on the craze, but lately I found myself watching a few of the more popular korean dramas (kim sam soon, full house, princess hours and 'shao nu cheng gong ji'). I prefer these dramas to shows like "winter sonata", "stairway to heaven", etc because they are cuter, light hearted and not so heavy. I cant bear to watch a series with tear jerking scenes at every corner, or a love story that has so many twists and turns it makes my head spin.

The love scenes in Korean drama are often very 'subtle' and heart wrenching. perhaps because the starting is difficult, the ending is often sweeter. :D
I have a friend who cannot stand such soapy series though. He thinks its superficial and cant understand the obsession with these dramas.

Went on the net to search for links relating to korean drama and found this http://www.koreandrama.org & http://www.hancinema.net Think these are quite good to read about the synopsis of dramas thats been screened and you can see how widespread this 'k-drama' bug has spread...when you read the comments by the readers.
If any of you has any good korean (I prefer funny cutesy types to tragedies) drama to share, please let me know!
