I've always wanted to watch a Korean drama. Especially since I'm very interested in the culture and their manhwa books. Thanks for the recommendation! ?lilytepait wrote:If you watched "K2" a Korean drama, you have to admit the romance was being well played. it was action, yet there is still the love story. its not vulgar.

I actually find myself hoping it ISN'T made into a film because undoubtedly the screenwriters would insist on shoehorning in some romance. Ugh.

I just finished watching "K2", great Korean Drama. I think Korean dramas have perfected the art of imbibing all their dramas with a tint of romance.Amagine wrote:I've always wanted to watch a Korean drama.

On another note, having a romance can either kill the plot or enhance it. I don't always look forward to a romantic involvement in a book because to often the author tends to muck it up. I would rather they stay clear of it if they can't handle it.
