Fashion King.. the most stupid, shit, worst, and dissappointed korean drama ending that I’ve ever seen.. what the hell of the director was thinking about ! Damn.. If I knew I would have never watched
March 16th, 2013 at 10:20 am
If I only knew, Ive never watch Fashin King, it sucks, I will never recommend it for everybody to look for….I really dont like the ending

Wow! There are lots of people still unable to get over this Kdrama!
It looks like there are many people out there who are in for some unfortunate surprises in their lives.
So, this Kdrama didn’t go the way you all wanted…..so?
I’ve known lots of people in my life that things didn’t always go the way they wanted!
You know what?
They just got over it and moved on. (That’s with real life!)
You have to take the good with the bad in this world.
You have to have many opposites, darkness against light, heat against cold and illness against good health.
Otherwise, life would not function, especially the way we might want it!
I know a person who records and then watches Kdrama for about 16 to 18 hours each day, 7 days a week.
That’s her only view of the world.
She doesn’t watch news or current affairs, only Kdrama.
When she visits her family in Korea, guess what she does?
That’s right, from her home TV, flys to Korea to her family’s TV and return several weeks later!
When I asked her if she’d seen much change in Korea, she responded by saying that she’d only travelled to and from the Airport!
How’s that for being a Kdaddict?
PS I greatly enjoyed; The Horse Doctor.

This drama was trying to say that small enterprises cannot fight againts super dominated large enterprises like Jfashion. I really dont like that idea. Or this drama based on true story? tell me please.. Dont make a drama just for entertaining rich people and make a fool of rising enterprise.. interesting but so dirty. lol

UNDISAPPOINTED ENDING!!WHY YOUNG GUL MUST DIE??!!!HUHU…

Ahh! This drama
This drama tells that there are things that aren’t meant to be.
It tells that fate is contradicting what the characters want.
It tells that it is bad being too much inlove, greedy, and too much desire for money.
It tells that the not every ending is happy, that there aren’t real happy ending.

personally for me ,it is VERY DISAPPOINTING…IT COULD HAVE ENDED BETTER…THE WRITER SHOULD HAVE A SQUEAL TO CLARIFY THINGS…
April 25th, 2013 at 6:13 am
Soooooooooooo disappointed, fucking film…..
April 27th, 2013 at 2:59 pm
so this series does not have a happy ending? the lead male die in the end? that’s sad then, just like the Bad Guy series, I think, the lead male died at the end.. I like Yoo Ah In in Sungkyunkwang scandal.. he was the rebel with the long hair..quite interesting character there…he looked so different here with the very short, cropped hair style..

Korean dramas are so predictable! Let’s start with the screenwriters. They are usually old hags who follow a formulae that looks like this: good looking guy(s) want the same girl who is either plain or stupid.. Or both. They want revenge so they battle it out. Usually there are good looking women around them who are manipulative bitches. Everyone drinks and gets drunk. The revenge gets nasty and ugly and the last episode ends up being either stupid, horrible and/ or disappointing.

Oh I forgot… These people always lose their parents when they are young. It makes the story easier to maneuver. That is so typical of every Korean movie it has lost it’s humor! Drinking is always part of it, suffering and no parents! How boring!!!

Every si gle Korean drama I watch is about greed, trying to make as much money as they can in order to live in materialistic heaven. I never see anything spiritual or about man as a human trying to excel in life by helping another human. It’s all about care, clothes, materialistic things. That is always the goal. I guess that Koreans are the Jews of the Asian race.

Madame Joe reminds me of a snake that whispers with cutting remarks. She is like a she- devil that talks bad about other people while she is acting so nice. She is not human. Even her face and her stupid dresses are gross.

Drama korea *KR* dengan ending terburuk Ɣªήğ pernah saya tonton,sangat mengecewakan,masa peran utamanya ga jadian.kalo gitu harusnya sampul depan dramanya si lee ga young n jae hyuk bukan sama young gul.ƍäª direkomendasikan buat ditonton..

It was interesting at the beginning then it went to *yawnn* typical Kdrama… Too much greed! Greed! And more greed! The ending… Now that’s different. Not the typical happily ever after. But somehow it makes me depressed!
