I am reading all these posts and am really laughing. These are all the things that I thought of, so glad other people noticed also. Especially the one with going to bed with their clothes..whats with that? Some of them wear matching pj's usually pink and blue with clouds, sheep or hearts on them.

If these wasn't said before there is also the obligatory man getting wet in shower scene when troubled!

Thanks for a funny thread!

Man getting wet in shower scene is the very reason why I watch k-dramas.

Wait.......scratch that.

I was skimming through the first episode of Que Sera Sera and would you believe it? Eric Mun getting wet in the shower! Seriously that happens in just about every 2nd k-drama I've seen. Why is there never a female getting wet in shower scene? The only one that even remotely comes close is Lee Da Hae in My Girl.

As for me, men getting wet are enough. But I think, maybe actresses don't agree to play in such "obscene" scenes? Tongue

EDIT 2007-10-30: As of recently, an advertisement seems to appear as part of every message that is first on its page. As I do not like this, and as this was such a post, I deleted the contents (I don't know how to delete the post itself.)
OMG........ No comments.

- Cool guys always swim. A swimming scene is a must.
- Rich people always play golf or tennis. Mostly golf.
- in romantic comedies there is a scene when guy leans towards girl and she thinks he is gonna kiss her but instead he just takes something from behind her of from her side.
- in serious dramas everyone wants to be rich.
- poor mothers are violent an drich motehrs are fragile like angels. Or then poor mothers are sick and rich ones are always angry and cold.
- old peopls always fall sick when main character is in a pinch of moeny or things just go bad. Tehn they need an operation...
- after main characters have met up first time they met second time. Semeone usually introduces them. Then it's always the same scene:
"OH!"
"OH!"
"You!"
"are you..."(it's always hukshii, dunno how to spell it right)
"Have you two met before"
"No!"
"No!"
Later main girl and her freidn have discussion
"So he was 50 cents, bad luck, rapist or some other stupid nickname?"
"yeah"
-`poor´ parents own a ramen restaurant.

The lead guy carries the lead lady on the back...

One, two or so things are world/international class/famous (athlete, artist, painter, company, musician, etc.)

1) You can always count on the best friend of the (usually female) lead character to blab and say something he/she is not supposed to and they usually do it unknowingly while trying to figure something out and talking to themselves in the presence of another person

2) The characters have their cellphones with them at all times except when that all important call is coming in. It will be sitting on the table or dresser in the bedroom.

3) Someone will get wrongfully accused (again, usually the female lead) but they stay quiet and take the verbal abuse hurled at them.

4) Anytime the lead character is feeling down and out, he/she will walk along the busy sidewalk in a daze and everyone walking in the opposite direction will bump into his/her shoulder but avoid everyone else Blink

It's a culture thing. everything pretty much happens except the romance/disease/supernatural crap everyday. The social classes are pretty accurate.

14. Korean schools and universities suck. To study anything seriously, characters must go abroad.



I wish they even learn something from those Universities >.< most of them have the WORST english accent and they even say that they've stayed in an english speaking country for years


Hahaha!! So true!! If they have live in an English-speaking Country for years, that's mean their English accent has to be quite good!! Some of them speaks like its their first time speaking English!


Except Lee So Young from Spring Waltz, she speaks very well though the accent Tongue


Right, and in I'm Sorry, I Love You, So Ji Sup's character supposedly grew up in Australia and he didn't know any Korean...

i first noticed that in some k drama's, spring waltx and 9 ends 2 out, they use fake glasses. When i first noticed it i cracked up laughing and now i can't help staring at the glasses to determine if it's fake or not.

That's a entertainment industry thing in general. Every country uses fake glasses when the character is supposed to wear them. Often, even when the actors DOES wear glasses in real life, they make them wear contacts and the glasses are still fake.
I mean you can't be making the actors blind by making them wear prescription glasses when they don't need them.
