January 21st, 2013 at 5:53 am
just finished watching it here in zimbabwe. it gave me hope to love again and never to give up on love. I love this drama.
January 23rd, 2013 at 8:40 pm
I miss drama and I miss Hyun Bin ssi. Hope his hair grows out fast, n we can see him in his next drama real soon. But b4 that happens, looking fwd to seeing him in his new CFs (for coffee n for Samsung’s Smart tv) in Feb!
May the Goddess of KD be merciful, n let him appear w a good actress that I love as much as Ha Ji Won in his next drama, with a great script. Pls don’t go the way of Song Joong Ki’s Nice Guy or Park Shi Hoo’s Alice in CDD. A script that makes sense, pls. Thank you.

This is my 2nd Best K-drama of All Time. My First is COFFEE PRINCE.
January 27th, 2013 at 11:26 pm
I just saw Hyun Bin ssi’s new Samsung Smart TV CF on TV! It shows a Samsung truck roing around the world, n HB’s voice narrates the whole CF, but He Only Appears on the pavement for a fraction of a second!

Hyun Bin doesn’t seem in a hurry for his next project as an actor. Is he waiting for the new script of KES to be ready? (rumors say for Spring…) That would be awesome!
February 12th, 2013 at 5:57 pm

this is like the best korean drama ever made! next is coffee prince and the greatest love. I really love the sizzling chemistry between the two main actors. I also loved the amazing OSTs (makes me sing along with Hyun Bin’s Eolmana elodmana deo neoreul…). It also has a really beautiful and capable cast! The main thing I love about secret garden is its awesomely heartfelt story complemented by a very beautiful cinematography (Kudos to the scriptwriter and PD). Secret Garden never gets old and still continues to rock the entertainment world. Even after 3 years, Secret Garden syndrome is still alive in Korea and in the whole world. That’s why I always define Secret Garden as perfection.

Just watched secret garden last month, and i really got hooked with the story, specially the two leading cast of the show (kim jo woon AN gil ra im), they justified their roles well making them the top actor and actress. I would have loss half of my life if i was not able to watch it..i may be three years late, but the effect of this drama series is so huge, that it made me rewatch,,and rewatch it starting from the first episode! i really love these couple!
may they have more and more projects together because their chemistry is a blast!

my 1st drama, maybe not 1 of the best i have seen , but good enough to make me interested in dramas, thanks to this drama i discovered “the world of dramas”
March 20th, 2013 at 12:20 pm
I got my tickets to the Hyun Bin pan-Asia Fan-meeting tour! Yeah!
Tix went on sale at 10am. I called in at 10am sharp. But was put on hold, as there were other callers before me. At 10:08, somebody answered my call, but Half the tix were already gone! I couldn’t believe it! I had to have seats in the 2nd half of the hall! But they are all basically one prize, around USD160 each. The only exceptions are some seats in the very back and some along the wall on either side. I’m so excited!
@ha-2549,
Don’t know what you are saying. I don’t think you do either:
“my 1st drama, maybe not one of the best I’ve seen..”
If it is your 1st drama ( I presume u mean Korean drama), how on earth would you know if it is one of the best or not? Better to wait till to watch many many more Korean dramas, so that you have something to compare it to.
