Saya adalah seorang pecandu drama Korea (Kdrama), saya sampai rela tidur jam 2-3 pagi demi streaming drama Korea. Namun tak semua Kdrama saya tonton, hanya Kdrama yang saya suka saja. Biasanya kdrama saya suka adalah yang enggak bosenin, lucu, cerita menarik, dan aktor kece. (Kan kalau aktornya kece, jadi semangat nonton ya. Hahaha..)
Dulu saya menonton Kdrama itu di stasiun televisi Indosiar dan DVD, baik beli sendiri, minjam teman, ataupun menyewa, tapi sejak di rumah berlangganan internet saya mulai menontonnya dengan streaming. Awalnya streaming di Youtube, kemudian saya mengenal beberapa link streaming Kdrama dan Jdrama (drama Jepang). Beberapa link tersebut antara lain
dramacrazy,
mysoju,
viki,
dramabean,
koreanmovie, dll.
Sekarang saya bukan membahas link-link tersebut, tapi saya ingin membahas Kdrama yang saya tonton selama tahun 2011 lalu. Mungkin ini bisa jadi rekomendasi buat kalian. Silakan disimak dan diamati sambil duduk manis biar dapat cowo kece. :))

Ketika mendengar Jang Na Ra akan main di drama ini, saya sangat menanti karena saya cukup kangen dengan aktris satu ini. Jang Na Ra bisa dibilang aktris lama, drama dia yang pertama kali saya tonton adalah My Love Patzzi di tahun 2001. Sayangnya setelah drama ini keluar, ada rasa kecewa dalam dirinya. Cerita drama ini tidak cukup menarik buat saya. I'm sorry, Jang Na Ra. Drama ini sungguh membosankan.

Ini salah satu Kdrama tahun 2011 yang wajib ditonton. Saya sangat suka dengan drama ini. Terlebih lagi saya sangat suka dengan pemeran utama pria, yaitu Cha Seung Won. Akting CSW di sini cukup berbeda dari biasanya, namun doi mampu memerankannya dengan baik. Doi ini om-om berumur 40 tahun dan tetap ganteng loh. *mimisan* Selain pemeran utama pria, pemeran utama wanitanya juga oke. Dia adalah Gong Hyo Jin, yang main di Kdrama "Pasta" juga. Saya suka gaya berpakaian doi di drama ini dan di drama "Pasta". Pemeran pembantu prianya juga oke, si Yoon Kye Sang. Kalau dari segi cerita, drama ini menarik dan ada adegan yang unyu-unyu gitu deh. Pastinya saya sangat menyarankan untuk menonton drama ini.

love.
Ini juga salah satu drama favorit saya. Drama akhir tahun 2011 ini mampu membuat saya menunggu episode per episode setiap minggunya, malahan saya sampai rela menonton drama ini walaupun belum ada subtitlenya. Ceritanya cukup menarik dan bikin saya penasaran. Pemeran utama pria (lagi-lagi) yang kece buat saya tergoda menonton drama ini. Pemeran utama pria yang agresif mungkin bikin saya ingin menonton drama ini. Hahaha..

Genre: Business, romance
Episodes: 21

Genre: Musical
Episodes: 15
Broadcast network: SBS
Broadcast period: 2011-Sep-02 to 2011-Dec-23
Synopsis
Musical drama about the dreams and love of musical actors.
Sempat bepikir drama ini bakalan bagus, tapi ternyata saya salah besar. Jalur ceritanya makin ke belakang makin aneh, tiba-tiba aja ada penambahan tokoh baru. Endingnya pun jadi terlihat dipaksakan. Terus yang bikin enggak seru lagi adalah dua kali drama ini ditunda penanyangannya karena bentrok sama jadwal pertandingan olahraga. (Entahlah olahraga apa. Saya tak tahu.)

Hijinks ensue when she falls in love with Kang Woo instead.

Pemeran utama wanita kocak dan pemeran utama pria lucu. Ceritanya juga oke. Drama ini favorit saya juga. Ada beberapa adegan antara No Eun Seol dan Cha Ji Heon yang unyu-unyu gitu, dijamin bikin senyum-senyum sendiri. Hihihihi.. Salah satu drama yang selalu saya tunggu-tunggu setiap minggu.

Drama ini cukup sedih, tapi ada sedikit unsur lucunya. Favorit saya juga karena pemeran utama prianya ganteng. Hahaha.. Selain itu, pemeran utama wanita ini biasa main drama ber-genre comedy romance dan biasanya drama yang dia mainin lebih banyak komedi sih. Namun, untuk kali ini dramanya lebih banyak sedih. Biarpun banyak sedih, drama ini cuku wajib ditonton ko'.
Title: 왓츠업 / What's Up

Broadcast period: 2011-Dec-03 to 2012-???-??
Synopsis
A drama revolving around music and the romance between students enrolled in the theatrical department of a university.
Drama yang sempat tertunda penanyangannya disebabkan beberapa hal, antara lain (kalau saya nggak salah) karena belum ada stasiun televisi yang mau menanyangkan drama ini dan salah satu pemainnya sempat terjanggal masalah. Pemain yang terjanggal masalah itu adalah Daesung, kebetulan merupakan personil dari boyband yang suka, Big Bang. Alasan saya menonton drama ini hanya karena ada Daesung. Hehehe.. Doi memang bersuara bagus dan di drama ini saya makin cinta dengan suaranya. Hingga saat ini drama ini belum selesai, kalau 18 episode kemungkinan drama ini selesai pada 29 Januari 2012.

Lee Shin is a university student majoring in modern music. He is also
the vocalist and guitarist of the band "The Stupid." Shin is known for
his good looks and strong passion for music, but in reality he is cold,
lacks interest in anything unrelated to music and has neither dreams nor
plans for the future. He initially likes Jung Yoon Soo, a dance
professor at university, but this all changes when he meets Lee Kyu Won.
Lee Kyu Won is a bright and outgoing student who was born into a
prestigious family and is majoring in traditional Korean instruments,
especially the gayageum. Kyu Won's grandfather, Lee Dong Gun, is one of
the top 3 traditional musicians of his age and his biggest wish is to
see his granddaughter become a traditional music prodigy. Trying to live
up to her grandfather's expectations, Kyu Won immerses herself in
training and becomes a university student who knows nothing outside of
her studies. As her friends are fans of "The Stupid", she was forced to
go to the band's concert with them. There she saw Lee Shin performing
live, and is immediately captivated by him.
Saya suka dengan gaya berpakaian pemeran utama wanitanya. Terus pemeran utama prianya lebih kece main di sini daripada di drama Boys Before Flowers.
Nah itulah drama-drama Korea yang saya tonton selama tahun 2011. Kalau berdasarkan rekomendasi saya, Kdrama yang wajib ditonton adalah Flower Boy Ramyun Shop, The Greatest Love, Lie To Me, Me Too Flower, My Princess, Protect The Boss, Scent of Woman, dan You've Fallen For Me. Selamat menonton! :))
