Hi ppl,
I cant believe there are only 4 pages of discussion over City Hall in DA. I hope other ppl are not missing out on this awesome drama. Personally I've avoided lots and watched few korean dramas almost in the past 2 years and I must say tht very few dramas impressed me. But City Hall is sort of a bonus gift for tht 2 years wait. It is so worth the wait. This drama post such high standards, I'm afraid tht I'll never be able to enjoy another korean drama ever again (though I'll try to be optimistic).
It has awesome script writing, brilliant acting and great onscreen chemistry. I never knew of Cha Seung Won before City Hall. Tht's why at first I waded City Hall with skepticism. But boy... was I wrong about CSW. He is one awesome actor. Having such a powerful control over his acting especially his emo faces. Got to love this man's facial expressions. Of coz not forgetting KSA, she has always proven tht she is a strong actress. It's a plus tht finally in City Hall KSA has met her rival and BANG!.... We have an awesome drama.
Hahaha... I think I should stop babbling already and continue to pimp this drama over in my fansub group. I've been living breathing City Hall for the past week. Just want to say thnx to BON for the subs.
Officially a City Haller!

Darynrose, I share your sentiment perfectly and am glad there's another "convert" to City Hall! Many people had snubbed this drama because they didn't know CSW. They also thought City Hall would be boring because of its political backdrop. Boy, are they missing something! Right now, The City Hall is unbeatable in my Drama 2009 category in terms of script writing/plot, direction and acting. Of course, the year is not yet over, and I haven't watched all the dramas out there. But I have watched many since Dec 2004, and this one ranks among my all time favourite dramas, number of which can't be covered by my two palms (or 10 fingers).
So which fansub group are you in? Yes, let's spread the City Hall love! Such greatness and joy should be shared!

lovey dovey drama with a REAL story plot! one of the few shows that climax at the end instead of just dragging for the sake of lengthening the drama.
It deserve a much higher viewership!! Hope more people watch and support the show. great story, great cast, great acting!!!

Again I agree with Rambutan (tht feels weird calling a person a fruit... have sudden craving for rambutan now... hahaha...) I, too, have a short list of my fav korean dramas and City Hall is currently being place number one! Hee.... And ppl, please just bare through the first 3 - 4 episodes (coz some ppl do find these episodes a bit boring? But I surely didnt). I promise you, you'll be sitting at the edge of you seat squealing at every scene. Coz I did... Even from Epi 1. So Baruch Menachem I really hope tht you'll continue to watch this drama.

I am involve in TimeLesSub. I work a lot with Raspberry Latte, who also edited few episodes of City Hall. And yes, dont worry about spreading the love, I am currently getting my fellow team subbers to watch it too.

@ junior_pansy, I heard that Brilliant Legacy (Shining Inheritance) is also very good. Haven't watched it myself, being so busy and so besotted with The City Hall in the past few months, so can't say whether this drama can match The City Hall. One thing I am quite certain, though. Hardly any young couple can match the acting skills of, and chemistry between, the mature Kim Sun Ah and CSW. But the feedback on BL has so far been very good. So it's on my "next to watch" list... If only I could stop watching The City Hall... again.
And Darynrose, Lucille, junior_pansy, sister girl and all those who have thanked us for the subs, let me say the pleasure's ours working on, then sharing the subs. During subbing, some of us at BON were so busy watching and rewatching the episodes we were working on, that we forgot about the subbing! This is a great drama and everybody is glad to be sharing it!

Well, darynrose, there are actually many more pages written about/on The City Hall in D-Addicts. Some of them may discuss the City Hall, some not. The comments are spread over 20 episode threads on the raw video releases, plus the 20 episode threads on the hardsub video releases, plus the two threads on soft subs (ep. 1 & 2) releases!
I believe more people will be drawn to The City Hall in the months or years ahead due to the good reviews and comments sprouting up almost everywhere. Sure, we will always have contrarians, but I think they are pretty underwhelming in the sea of overwhelming accolades. In fact, the series has generated so much love that Samsooki, who was unknown in the fansubbing scene, has come out to do the drama recaps at Dramabeans! This surely is a labour of great love!

This has been one of the best Kdramas I have ever watched. I have some all time favs and this will possible be one of them..depends on how many times I re-watch it. Since MNIKSS KSA has been in the one to watch category but as others said I wasn't sure about the male lead but for KSA I checked it out. and WOW I was seriously impressed by the acting in this show. I agree with others that I appreciate the maturity of the story line and the actors. The writing was also great and I know that the actors appreciated that as much as we did.
BON, thank you for such great subs. I also sometimes watch the SBS subbed shows and I am particularly struck how they translated what was said such as using the word "attacked by a man" instead of "seduced by a man" in that memorable romantic scene with KSA and CSW in the car.That totally changed the meaning and feeling of what was said. So, thanks again BON fansubbers for all of you hard work on this and your other projects.
