lol...it's kinda ironic that he kills people easily but fears his dad.Did you catch up on his comment about fearing his dad more than the court/jail?That guy is not right in the head,he needs serious help.And someone should tell him to stop that evil laugh he does,it scares the living daylights out of me.

lol@your description of the stammerer.I know the scene you 're referring to.The guy is so funny.

I'm not a fan of crying scenes.I'm easily moved to tears and I find myself crying along with them sometimes, cried so much when I was watching ep4,lol.That's why I don't like heavy melodramas.

Yes I did, he's more scared of his dad than going to jail. I wonder what the old man did that made the guy that way.
The guy does need help. He didn't realise he killed Jung Ah till the morning after. Really creepy fella.

The ratings are steadily climbing for each eps. In just two weeks of airing, it is already leading the time slot.

Pls whats the title of d movie wanna download it as well @hilda90

Yay,so happy! my oppa won bin is now a dad.His wife gave birth to a bouncing baby.Thank God for them o,his son is gonna be handsome like him.


it seems Kim hyun joong's case is gonna die down a little now,it has been going on like forever.
They have confirmed the paternity of the child,the child is his.Finally,the drama(as knetz call it) has come to an end,enough already.

I actually followed the kim kyun joong story for a while and am surprised he's the father,after all the allegations,he just proved the lady right.

And it's thanks to my Oppa and his Moon Embracing the Syun drama. [/quote] ya! Dts ma bae_bi

D day(was okay but hated the way the hospital head treated patients,was gnashing my teeth the whole time while watching.)
Scholar who walks the night(from the middle to ending was boring, just stuck to it for Gwi,didn't dig Lee jun ki and Yoo bi's chemistry either).
She was pretty(the last four EPs was a little boring but I loooved the drama,the comedy was top notch)

Best at being evil: Kang so young ( school 2015) this girl's evilness makes me shiver

Gwi (I love bad boys *wink*)

Eun dong's crippled husband (I hated him also in angry mom)

Kwon soo ah (this girl aint evil,she is just negatively trying to live up to her weird mother's expectations *she is so pitiful)

Cindy's CEO in the producers (that woman should be locked up)


Best OSTs: Reset (school 2015) *this ost is just perfect for Lee Eun bi.

Auditory hallucination (kill me heal me) this OST is way too touching *sob*

Eternal love (healer)


Disappointments? That would be orange marmalade coz I had a lot of expectation (you know,being yeo jin goo's first drama lead role and stuff) was heartbroken with the stupid and useless plot and that zombie actress kim seolhyun or what's her name (second suzy)

Funny Video

I'm not usually this emotional but I wanna let you know that finding this thread is one of the best things that happened to me this year.


My kdrama love started early 2013 but I had no one to share that obsession with till I found this thread,now I can shout and scream about my love for asian (korean) boys without anybody thinking (that girl is weird,she is obsessed with chinko boys).


I'm happy I found this thread coz I met some amazing people who likes what I like and aint ashamed to talk about it and I'm thankful for that.

www.gooddramas.com or www.gooddrama.com one of the two

okay,I really want us to have this discussion,i want everyone to participate.

A regular commenter on drama beans asked this question on db open thread few months ago,I was happy to read the opinions of different people on the subject.So I just wanna know what you guys think about it.

so the question is......Why do actors/actresses have chemistry in dramas?Why does a Korean actor have chemistry with a particular actress in a drama but no chemistry with another actress in another drama?
for e.g Lee min ho had more chemistry with son hye jin in personal taste than park shin hye in heirs.So my questions are:
1.Is it because the actor isn't comfortable with the female actress? (Yoo chun once said he was very uncomfortable with a particular female lead and people were saying it reflected on their romantic scenes)
2.is it a case of bad directing?
3.Do they have more chemistry with their female leads cos they have romantic feelings for them(yeah,some actors date their female costars after filming like Lee min ho-park min young,hyun bin-song hye kyo,Eugene and her present hubby,Park shin hye-lee jong suk(they were rumoured to be dating earlier this year but denied it).
4.is it because of their filming atmosphere?(I watched you re beautiful bts some time ago,PSH,sukkie,hong ki,yong hwa and Uee were very playful on set and I think it reflected on their acting.same with secret garden&empress ki).
5.Is it cos a particular actor or actress was moody at the time of shooting (I know the director is there to guide them but asking someone who is angry to force a smile can be uncomfortable and it may reflect on the acting).
6.is it because a particular actor or actress is bad at acting?(I don't think being a good actor can make you have more chemistry with your female costars.Some good actors are so awkward in romantic scenes while some bad actors are good in romantic scenes.
7.Does it depend on the actor himself(there are actors that are known for having chemistry with all their female leads.Ji Chang wook is a good example and so many others.
Besides, I keep noticing that drama couples these days don't always have chemistry.
lemme know what you guys think.

@hilda90, I really don't know but it can happen for a variety of reasons.
If the actors are familiar and comfortable with each other it'll reflect on their romantic scenes.

Some actors are just chemistry overload. Kim So Eun is an example. She was good with Kim Bum in BOF, with SJR in We got Married and look at swwtn with LSH.

Then there's the case of having the hots for your co-star, like Queen In Hyun's man. The actors fell in love on set and that reflected in their on-screen romance,

Then there's the directing. I think good directing can salvage a bad on-screen romance. You know sometimes hugs can be more romantic than a kiss. So if the actors are uncomfortable with a kiss, a good director should settle for a hug instead of forcing an awkward kiss scene.

That's just my opinion sha.

@hilda90 i think it's the feeling you have off-screen that you carry on screen,and that is the reason why if you don't have a good rapport with your partner off-screen,it could affect your delivery.A very good example is park shin hye and lee jong suk,she was so calm and there was no awkwardness within,and then i was like how did she pull it off?i've seen 4 of her dramas,but i have never seen her so comfortable,so most times it solely depends on how much you feel comfortable with your partner,healer is also a good example,not only because wookie is a good actor,but also cos of his comfortability with PMY,you cant feel off with ur co-star and have great chemistry,it is impossicant.my 2 cents.

. I agree with you, at times it depends on the actors and actresses themselves, if they are relaxed offset, then they definitely will feel relaxed when working on set,

I've also read about a particular Korean actress though I've forgotten the name, she complained of her partner ie. the lead actor being a smoker, so for her to agree to do a kissing scene with him, they had to come to an agreement that the actor must not smoke for at least two hours before they start filming.
so imagine how the lady will feel when kissing someone who still have traces of cigarettes smells in his mouth. definitely her reactions at that moment will be awkward, and not relaxed.
do you notice that park shin hye's total acting and kissing scenes in Pinnochio is a lot better than The Heirs.
bad directing is also a part of it,

so I just believe that there are many things that are not opened to us audience which can cause lack of chemistry between lead actors and actresses.

I agree with you,actors and actresses being comfortable with each other will make them have more chemistry, but in some cases they won't be able to deliver the romantic scenes well.For e.g,Shin hye and yong hwa have been good friends since you're beautiful, they reunited again in the drama heartstrings,but their romantic scenes were awkward as hell.You need to watch their bts. yong hwa was so shy to kiss shin hye on the lips,despite them being comfortable with each other. Which makes me think it depends on the individual actor or actress.

I agree with you once again,having the hots for your costar can also improve the onscreen chemistry. I haven't started watching kdramas in 2011 when city hunter was aired but when I watched the bts of the drama,I was like.......these guys were an item even without reading about their dating news.There was a scene where they were watching their kiss scene on a phone(I think it was recorded there),and they were so comfortable doing that.

yeah,directing plays an important role also.good directors improve the onscreen chemistry of actors and actresses while bad directors do otherwise. for instance,I believe that the person who directed the drama heirs was a bad director cos he would have told advised shin hye to relax her face a bit,even if the kiss was painful for her.or he would have told Min ho to tone down the kiss a bit.
Again,I believe some bad directors are the cause of dead fish kisses.Can you believe that the director of bof pulled that dead fish kiss on min ho.He wanted to do a real kiss but the director told him to give Ku hye sun a Peck on the lips,imagine how that would look onscreen.......Dead fish kiss 101.
same with that first kiss Jang Nara and seo in guk did in iry,dude really wanted to move his lips but the director told him to keep still,that one is forgivable cos it was needed for that scene.

Thanks for your answers Atk01,I appreciate.

Yeah,I agree with you.The off screen chemistry affects the onscreen chemistry of actors/actresses.
As for shin hye and jong suk,I believe that Shin hye was more comfortable with jong suk than Min ho.In her case,I don't even know if was the matter of having an affinity for this actor but not the other actor.
Her face during the kiss scene of heirs was as if Min ho was plastering sh*t on her tongue,lol.
yeah,Wookie is always comfortable with his costars, I wonder how he does it.I bet wookie can make Shin hye kiss well,I want them to star in a drama together.
Thanks for your answers, Dequeenzy.

I agree with you.onscreen chemistry of an actor/actress equals their offscreen chemistry.

Lol....I think the actress you 're referring to is Lee bo young(ji sung's wifey) and the actor is Lee jong suk. jong suk is known for taking smoke breaks during filming(fans who visited Pinocchio set said so),Which raises the question.... why Shin hye was more comfortable with him but not Min ho who is also a smoker.

Yeah,bad directing is also one of the factors that influence the chemistry of actors/actresses,I have explained that already.
Thanks for the answers Thebeadslady.

Lool. Was that during the cabin kiss scene? (when he rescued her from the snow.) Because from the bts, the director was like he should just touch her lightly with his lips and not open his mouth.


You're welcome.
