RP AND GAKHA COUPLE DA BESTTTTT
January 1st, 2013 at 3:59 pm
Yup….,Gotta agree Faith’s story-telling is not really compelling,that’s why it doesn’t get/win the Drama Award.
But congrats to Lee Min Ho for the Best Actor Award,though,
That’s what this vote is all about in the first place ,not another way round.
Still it’s a win-win situation….you win some,and you lose some.
HAPPY NEW YEAR,PPL!!!

@Matutina
Wow you are so rude. I loved Faith and was planing to check out RP but seeing people beeing so rude I think I’ll pass it for now. My list of dramas to watch is long anyway, one drop out is totaly fine with me. Hey I can even rewatch Faith instead
January 2nd, 2013 at 2:01 pm
Let us respect each others perspective..We love FAITH!
Lee Min Ho and Kim Hee Sun are great actors!
For those haters just watch FAITH, then youll realize that this series is one of the finest!
January 2nd, 2013 at 5:13 pm
I’m sorry; it’s not supposed to be Nazi but Godzila.
Ever heard of the word ‘pseudonym’? Yeah, I thought not.

Otoke, JJ.
I’m only rude to those who are rude to me first.
TBH, I wanna check out and watch Faith. If only school/responsibilities were not in the way. I mean I think Lee Min Ho was gud in Boys Over Flowers, especially after Ku Hye Sun did a karate kick on him.
January 2nd, 2013 at 8:04 pm
@JJ
Do as you wish.
You’ll regret it.

Otoke, JJ.
Я думаю, что Ли Мин Хо был гуд в Boys Over Flowers, особенно после Ku Hye ВС сделали каратэ удар на него.
O. yes. Good speak!

whuaaaaattttt?!!!!
i love this korean drama FAITH.. so nice to watch this king of drama..
i really hooked up.. straight 1 day i watched FAITH. all cast were doing great especially Kim Hee Sun and Lee Min Ho..
my mom loves Lee Min Ho hahaha

If there is a remake to the last two eposide, from the interview of Lee Min Ho. I would like to watch it. Hopefully, It has. Else it is a waste. The ending is too adrupt.
I hope the writer would write another story about Cui Young travelling through time to look for Liu En Xiu… and the other Qi Che would be trying to kidnap her again. Hahaha. That would be another interesting drama…. Although it might be old script but ending would be different. If there are. Maybe they will be lost in time or maybe they will both die.

I love faith so much it is the best korean drama of the year i hate rft
