Korean Dramas

• Autumn Tale - all the typical melodramatic drivel.
• Couple of Fantasy - great in concept, mediocre in execution.
• Dal Ja's Spring - uneven pacing, but a heartwarming love story.
• Delightful Girl Choon Hyang - the definitive "jump the shark" drama.
• Fog Street - b.o.r.i.n.g.
• Goong - overrated and shallow.
• Hello! Miss - only mildly entertaining, completely forgettable.
• My Girl - witty, charming, and wonderful, but damn that shark jumping.
• Over the Rainbow - weak storyline, bland characters.
• Sweet 18 - sincere and sweet, still my favorite drama ever.
• Witch Amusement - certainly amusing, but written badly.
