I am in love with Korean Videos [View all]

Who else? And what have you seen?

In my opinion they are excellent with detective stories, Their "villains" are well done they can be crazy scary. They are really good about showing both sides of a character. You often learn something else while watching them. For instance, if the character is a chef, you will watch him/her make delicious dishes. Their fantasies are well done and not like anything you would see on American made videos. They can very funny. Their love stories are heartwarming. Just do not be surprised at some of their endings, they can be actually surprising. Do not worry, almost all of them are subtitled and if you miss something you can always turn it back to see if you heard right or missed something.

Here are some of the ones I love, but I think they just scratch the surface;

Mr Sunshine
Bulgasi
Abyss
Extraordinary Attorney Woo
It's OK Not To Be OK
Stranger
Something In The rain
The King
The Good Detective
Alchemy For The Soul ~ OMG it is so good
I am starting Dr Cha, like it so far.
Uncanny Counter
Hotel DeLuna ~ OMG so good

I have noticed the Netflix have the most Korean videos. There are other networks but not near so many. My grandkids tease me because I have gotten to like subtitles so much, that even if the video is in English. I now like them on for the same reasons I run them back for Korean subtitles. Watching Koreans flicks is good exercise of opening my world. It has made me more interested in foreign films, so I have also branched out in other languages.

So yeah, anyone else have some good suggestions?
