I was going to reply to one of your comments about how you've only watched one K-Drama, so I need to come in and recommend you because I LOVE K-dramas. Not the sappy cancer ones though. The hilarious plane-taking, always has a resort-episode one with Gossip Girl like characters!
For K-Dramas, Watch:
Coffee Prince (I saw all the recs for this, it is truly a thing of beauty)
Princess Hours (I swear, I wanted Leighton Meester and Ed Westwick to do an Americanized version of this. It has horrible fashion too, but it takes place in a pretty, pretty palace.)
Boys Before Flowers (I know people are going to hate me for this, but it's better than the Japanese one. Btw, the guys dress better than Nate and Chuck on GG, I SWEAR, and they up the ante on the supporting cast, such that sometimes you go off rooting for another couple when you're bored with the main one.)
My Girl (Classic. this is an example of good plot writing. The characters and storyline never stray for one second)
Sassy Girl Choon Hyang (WATCH FOR THE UNIFORM. IT's PINK.)
And of course, another classic, My Name is Kim San Soon. (all these are comedies by the way, I never watch the sad ones with cancer.)
I noticed your Hana Kimi icon. If you haven't watched the Taiwanese version. DO NOT. Do NOT for one second watch any Taiwanese dramas, except for It Started With a Kiss and even that one's pushing it because it only gets awesome in the last 3 episodes. ALSO I LOVE NAKATSU.
