I can't believe some people are saying My Girl. She was unexpectedly funny. The first time I thought it was ok, but the second time I was shocked at the funny stupid things she did. (like bumping her head against the wall whenshe jumped on the bed, and the many embarrassing moments and lies she was caught in.)

yeah i thought the same thing too. It starts out very slow but as it goes along its very funny. |
I agree. My Girl might have been funny (but mostly just embarassing) at the beginning but halfway it turned into very boring melodrama with too much angsting and crying. I have watched almost all the other dramas My Girl's screenwriters wrote and it happens in all of their dramas. Even Hong Gil Dong was wrecked from it's good start to the point I hated the latter half of it.
About My Gil, I just hate Lee Da Hee. she is oen of the worst actresses ever, talk about overrated... I just cannot understand why she is so pupular? My girl might have been hecka better drama but Lee Da Hee... she has a few expressions she used in whole 16 episode drama, only those few!!! And she also wrecked East iof Eden, gosh I hated her character the most! Such a boring actress!! BORING I say.
Talking about East of Eden.. overrated. Totally overrated. Too much loopholes and confusing time jumps leaving things unfinished, too much crying, too littel action, Lee Da Hee.... too theatralic, unnatural moments, too long, too much unessesary content.. totally overrated!!!_________________ Now watching:

Boys Over Flowers. It was just bad. Mediocre acting, bad directing, stupid plot events. Yoko Kamio wrote a perfectly good story, which did not need to be ruined by introducing cliched elements such as: estranged grandfather, comatose father, ruined dreams of becoming a swimmer, etc.
Autumn Tale and Full House. I am not saying they were bad, just boring.

Most overrated is Goong ... almost avoided all of Yoon Eun Hye's projects because of this drama but Ioved her role in Coffee Prince. None of the actors (can we even call them that) can actually act. Fan of the manga, but the drama entirely ruined it.
Also, East of Eden ... sure I just watched the first 4 episodes, but from only seeing those, I can already predict what a long winded, angst driven drama it will be so I dropped it. How could you guys stand to watch all (how many episodes were there?) when you know nothing good is gonna come out of it. Hmm, maybe because of the awesome actors lined up, but what was up with that script?_________________

I agree that Boys Before Flowers is wayyyy overrated. It's a messy drama but someone a few pages back said this series was like a guilty pleasure and I agree to that as well. It's not the best drama but it was fun to watch.
Yes, kamio may have written a great story but I have to give the korean version some major points for trying to change things up a bit instead of following the original storyline. No one wants to watch the same exact events unfolding again, albeit in a different language, so I think the cliched elements you mentioned were written in to attract korean audiences and they actually worked in a way.

Some of them may have been a bit "overrated", but I liked "Coffee Prince", "My Girl", and "Witch Yoo Hee". I REALLY liked "Full House" and "East of Eden".

Umm...yeah, I could do that. 
Most overrated? I'd go with:
- "Goong": Like most posters here, I didn't care much for it - although I just figured it was a "kiddie" show and let it go. I found it mildly entertaining at best. I think Yoon Eun Hye did much better in "Vineyard Man", actually.
- "Phoenix": I've never seen anyone walk as slowly --- ALL THE TIME --- as the female lead did after the first couple of episodes. Whenever she was shown walking I'd think "there she goes again" and I'd head for the fast-forward button. I swear she'd have to start walking right after dinner just to get to work by morning. I couldn't understand why any guy in his right mind would be so attracted to such a depressing, expressionless person. Jung Hye-young did a GREAT job playing the jilted, demented stalker, though - that alone made it worth the watch (Jung Hye-young played the ultra-together, always calm "Janice" in "East of Eden" - which was still pretty fresh in my mind when I saw "Phoenix".)
- "My Name is Kim Sam Soong": Similarly, I just couldn't get myself to like the main character. (My Other really liked the series, though.)
