@Etoile308 

You are way ahead of me in discovering the K- Dramas!
I binged "Another Miss Oh" on Netflix and it was delightful!!!
I'm sure you have seen this, but if not, I highly recommend this.

A wonderful and heartwarming drama. This will go on my must watch list, along with Crash Landing On You and It's Okay To Not Be Okay.

Re: Another Miss Oh - Netflix

I'm always looking for new things to watch on Netflix.  I will have to check this out.

 

I'm halfway through "The Swimmers" on Netflix.  It's nothing what I thought it was going to be and it's a very good story about two sisters who have trained to become Olympic swimmers but are refugees from war in Syria.  

 

Very interesting and  plan on finishing it this weekend.  I just got so tired the other night that I couldn't finish it at the time and it's over two hours long.

@Goldengate8361 ...I had no idea either so I googled...They are Korean dramas.

Korean dramas, many are rom coms with subtitles.

The three I mentioned are so good, although you have to give them three episodes to get attached.

The first three episodes provide the background information and then they really pick up. After the third episode, you do not even notice the subtitles.

They are just very heartwarming.

@skincaremaven @If you like K movies, this one is just wonderful. Extraordinary Attorney Woo. It's on Amazon. Another good one is Flower of Evil.

 

I'm  off to try out your Another Miss Oh.

Re: Another Miss Oh - Netflix

@skincaremaven, thanks for the heads up. No, I haven't seen Another Miss Oh. So much to watch, so little time.

 

I tend to gravitate to many of the legal dramas, thrillers, and historical period dramas. But I do mix in some of the lighter romantics and comedies.

 

It's Okay Not to Be Okay was such an emotional rollercoaster. And even with all the pulling of the heartstrings I loved every minute of it. Really liked how the main characters developed in the end.

 

Crash Landing on You was delightful. What a predicament! And truly a fish out of water story. I enjoyed the glimpse into conditions in the North. I had read that a couple of defectors had helped with authenticity of conditions, but the show failed to stress the lack of food available to many in village life. The entire cast had great chemistry, in fact the two leads went on to marry.

 

A romantic comedy I really liked was Oh My Ghost. (Korean version and not the Thai remake.) An assistant chef has an ability to see ghost, and one young ghost wants her assistance in helping her pass over, while both are attracted to the handsome cocky head chef. Very cute cast. Of course there's a mystery in the background concerning the death of this young woman. 

 

@Mindy D , I couldn't stop binging Flower of Evil. Dark but so, so good. Have you seen Taxi Driver? Another dark series, revenge oriented but so well written. I could swear it had been on Apple but don't see it now. And I thought season 2 was on Netflix. Some of these series come and go then bounce to different platforms. I can't keep them straight. 


The next on my list is Little Women, then I want to watch The Glory. Both on Netflix.


Roku has really opened up the ability to see many shows and movies. There is the live streaming of channels like AsianCrush, CJ-ENM, Rakuten Viki, Kocowa, and New KMOVIES.  Plus what's great about Rakuten Viki and Kocowa is that you can watch many of the older shows for free on their aps without needing to subscribe.

@skincaremaven I watched Another Miss Oh. I don't know how to do the spoilers things, but maybe you could answer this question using the spoiler thing. Does the main Mis Oh ever find out why her fiancé did what he did or where he is? Does the second Miss Oh ever reveal why she didn't marry?

@Mindy D 

I have found the nice thing about K dramas is they wrap everything up and all questions are answered!

Yes, Miss Oh finds out why her fiancé called off the wedding. All questions are answered!

Also, since I do not speak Korean, I frequently google senses that I do not understand.

Hope you enjoy!
