    I am rewatching Just Between Lovers. I am thinking about trying Connection. Will wait for word of mouth on Serendipity.

      Ooh, Just Between Lovers was really good! I’m sure Connection would be good just for Ji Sung’s performance. Maybe a bit intense for me though. Serendipity is one I’ll probably try though.

    Just finished watching Dare To Love Me. While I had a few “complaints” about it, overall it was very good.

    Just finished watching “Frankly Speaking”. It was just okay, nothing great. There was too many stories going on which detracted from the main couple’s story and romance. There wasn’t much chemistry with the main couple. The last episode had a cute unusual ending that was good. But too little too late for this 12 episode show to get better then a 7/10 rating.

      Well, 7/10 sounds like a decent rating despite the issues. I do have this one on my watch list still 🙂

    Started watching Miss Day and Night. Very good. Lee Jung-Eun is excellent. Romance and the serial murder mystery also very good.

    I just finished watching: A Love So Beautiful. The original Chinese show that the Korean on was based on. This is the second time I watched it. High school to college to adult life romance story. It’s very good but had an issue with it. I didn’t like how the male lead character treated the girl. Way too mean. Very good second romance. The competition for the girl was strong and well done.

    The Korean version was one of the first Kdramas I ever watched. It was better then the Chinese original.

      I ended up dropping the Chinese version several years back. It was okay but slow, and like you I wasn’t really caring for the male lead character. It’s good to hear the Korean version was better overall though 🙂

    Again, I had to find a new show to watch as I waited for new episodes to be available on the new shows I’m watching. In error I clicked on Meeting You. But once I read the story description I knew I had it at least try it. It is the story of a boy with social anxiety disorder (chronic mental health condition that causes intense and persistent fear in social situations). He meets a girl in high school who helps him overcome his fears of interacting with people. The show is well written as there is light humor and the scenes where he struggles with his mental health issues are very touching without being over dramatic. I’m starting episode 8 and the show is great so far. There are 28 episodes but they are short. WARNING: the short overview at the start of each episode is full of spoilers.

      Looks like a happy accident with the mis-click 🙂 That sounds like an interesting show. I hope it stays good all the way through 🙂
