Iā€™m waiting too bc so far thereā€™s nothing there worth watching so far. Iā€™m waiting for Alien (MAY 25?) with Woo Bin and a great supporting cast

During the Goryeo dynasty, Taoists try to take a mysterious sword. In the present day, aliens appear on Earth. A time door soon appears between late Goryeo dynasty period and the present day. Due to this, a chaotic situations occur. (Source: AsianWiki)

I did this for you guys - I will do some research! Feel free to list some of your ā€œOLDā€ favorites

Sounds fantastic but they just started filming in April. I wonder when weā€™ll be able to start watching. They never mention if weā€™ll have it here at RViki. I guess Iā€™m gonna have to do more re-watching of my fave back in the days.

I am watching DARK HOLE but Iā€™m not too enthusiastic either. TAXI DRIVER is too brutal some times, so is another one that donā€™t excite me too much, but maybe others here might like it.

PS I loved PROTECT THE BOSS I can say without a doubt is a great one.

Ok I think DEVILISH JOY is not for me and YES he did his sssssssssss sound at the beginning when he gets annoyed with main girl (Iā€™m sorry but she canā€™t act for nothing) My poor Tower Boy wasted his talent on this one. The story needed some rewriting THE WHITE TRUCK OF DOOM appears in a street where no cars are allowed. The story is a TOTAL MESS and his lovely smile and gorgeous face is not enough for me to watch this disaster. I stopped on episode1 at 50 minutes and change.

It was one of my first! It had good skinship. I just enjoyed him so much. He is in FATED to Love you but that is a tear jerker

Yep - I donā€™t see that he saved it so hopefully someone is subbing it and will put it out on utube

I am currently watching this one that is a T-drama! Just a good old easy watch
I have to say when he washes her hair - melt melt melt

You crack me up - I started this collection for my EXTREMELY Choosy friend - she made herself finish Devilish Joy because of Choi who she loved in FATED. But she didnā€™t really like it

I had 123 shows in there and she made me take half of them out!!! hahahahahaha!

ā€œJimi ni Sugoi! Kōetsu Garu Kono Etsukoā€ is a rarity in Romantic Comedies in that itā€™s not just ā€œcomfort food for the soul,ā€ it gives you a lot to think about and a heroine to root for (important for us heroine addicts. :grin:)

A few that Viki doesnā€™t have that make you feel as if youā€™ve come home:

  • Yasashii Jikan (Peaceful Time) - a father/son estrangement drama set in Hokkaido, with Ayaka Hiraharaā€™s magical ā€œAshitaā€ as the theme music:
    https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vsO03p2_O_M

  • Asakusa Fukumaru Ryokan, which stars Nishida Toshiyuki (he was the gruff noodle chef in ā€œRamen Girl,ā€) playing a nosy inn owner in the Asakusa district of Tokyo. His nosy prying into his guestsā€™ private lives provides a whole lot of laughs and sometimes three-hanky heartstring-tugging:

  • Biblia Koshodou no Jiken Techou (a.k.a. Antiquarian Bookshop Bibliaā€™s Case Files) is about the mysterious owner of a used bookstore who has a Sherlock Holmes-like ability to solve mysteries about people, using only clues she gets from the books people bring in. A quietly-spectacular performance in this drama by Gouriki Ayame:

  • ā€œVoiceā€ is one of my all-time favorite dramas, and weirdly is available on YouTube. Itā€™s basically a detective drama - but with the twist of the detectives being students of forensic science, who solve cases using clues they get from people who have died. Despite the genre it has a mellow, thoughtful mood with some truly moving drama throughout, which will have you thinking about the people and events long after youā€™ve finished watching.
