Just wondering, are there any KDramas out there that don't feature a douchebag male lead, annoying love triangles, and characters constantly getting caught in awkward situations that could easily be explained in a couple sentences but for some reason, they don't explain it? Also, not really a requi...

The thing I have most problem with this drama is that they scaled everything up. In the original Onizuka was just a guy (albeit an impressive guy in some circles ie: impressive figure for motorbike gangs/youths because of his background - but thats about it. for rest of the world he is an underdog. ...

I'm a guy (but watch some dramas for the language and to better understand 女心), and the gay roommate sub-theme looks 1000% idiotic from my standpoint. I can't imagine any straight guy who would accept such a roommate due to the obvious problems. But this makes me wonder, is this just yet another ex...

It was neither cliffhanger-y and calling for a special to complete the story nor everything tightly wrapped up as to say: here you go, you dont need to think anymore everything is all good. now go watch another.

I am looking for some sport oriented dramas, I'm not picky on which sport. Find it hard to search for as few of them have a title linking them to sports.

I didnt mean to use immature as a negative thing there, sorry for the confusion. I was trying to write that I think Taiga is a lot closer to his inner child than he realizes and has a lot growing up to do. This is not a bad thing imo. He can connect with Umi on a more personal level because of this.

For one the general...
