Who knows, I might try the first episode of each of those since they are not in blacklist and I at least like JYJ's music (although I only have two favorites in the group and he is not one of them...lol). I don't really hate them, even though they do nothing to my eyecandy radar, if you know what I mean...lol
But this one has bland *insert other not as nice words in here* Park Si Yeon, I've hated her in both dramas I've watched..Well, one drama I watched and one which was unwatchable for me. I had actually planned to watch it...until she was added to the cast.

*nods* And don't even get me started about Coffee House, it's a bittersweet memory for me....LOL
Anything with Uhm Tae Woong and I am there. I will give this a try at the very least. I'm adding to my PTW.
Plus it has has Prosecutor Young Joo from City Hunter! double trouble!
Siwan from ZE:A? I won't add this unless someone tells me good things about it. I'm at 5OO on my PTW list...and that's not including Thai dramas =___= I'm restricting myself from adding anymore at the moment.
