I love this drama, it’s so funny, make me laugh every episodes. Though among Korean they may not like this kind of gag (from the low rating
) Its gag really gets me into this drama.

i like this series, simple stuff are delivered in a simple, funny, and direct manner with no pretenses. since I have no expectations as to the plot, etc., i take what is being presented and enjoy immensely. If the ratings are low, so be it. i look forward to the following episodes each week.

Love this show. It is so entertaining. Each character has their identity. Like slapstick comedy.

December 12th, 2014 at 6:59 pm
@moon
here is the actress played bul-ja / hwa-ran’s profile >> wiki.d-addicts.com/Han_Joo_Hyun
In real life, she has 10 years age gap with ki-joon (kwak dong-yeon). But, in the drama, I didn’t see the gap at all 😀

December 14th, 2014 at 4:26 pm
ep. 17: very funny and sad parts, still enjoy watching todate.
@maknaee: i did not see HJH’s ten years older than KDY until you pointed it out. That’s where good acting comes in.

don’t feel anxious or sad about the low rating bcz MODERN FARMER is definitely THE BEST KOREAN DRAMA EVER for real…
I’m getting curious how it will be ending.. cant wait!! Just cant!!!
December 23rd, 2014 at 10:54 am
@tigerb

@fio #64
you’re welcome 😀
@fiza hongstar
yeaah one episode left. Gonna miss this drama a lot. Show never fails to make me laugh in every episode :3
December 28th, 2014 at 7:40 pm
happy ending. life is simple, make mistakes, and learn but the adventure in farming did not seem to affect/teach the 4 clueless guys so they venture in fishing as the ending scenes suggest.
January 22nd, 2015 at 9:44 pm
Done watching! one of the best! I laugh so hard alot and cried just a little hehehe how I wish Modern fisherman will be the next LOL

I never thought i have become a fan of Lee hongki after watching this drama. He’s super funny, cute, and adorable.He acts like “he knows it all” but the way he acts is super lovable! I love the confession between him and the lead female. No words have been said. It’s so touching!
