Do any of you have recommendations for a particular series, or for an actor/actress?

I'd recommend Hana Yori Dango, for those who haven't yet seen it. It's freaking awesome.

Also, I'd recommend Long Vacation. It's a really simple drama, it doesn't have a complicated plot or anything, but it's really really sweet and I love it to pieces. (Except, I haven't seen the last three episodes because it got taken off Youtube and my computer hates large files, and would probably blow up if I tried downloading it.)

You should REALLY try and watch Goong. It's one of the best dramas I have ever watched. Smiling Pasta is a tad bit corny, yet some things in that drama makes me cry. Full House is actually the first drama I have EVER seen. It's the one that introduced me to the wonderful Asian Dramas! Frog Prince has a lot of twist and turns. The ending was lovely though. <33
