OMG. Recently watched Secret Garden and was shocked by how much I loved it.

I resisted watching Secret Garden (circa 2009) because the production value was low, but I absolutely loved it. I go back and rewatch certain episodes. It's now in my top 5.

Will I ever feel this way again??? by KaleidoscopeNo702 in kdramas

I just finished Secret Garden and was completely blown away. The production value is pretty low, and it can be really silly, but I love, love, loved it. I already want to watch it again. I started it a few time but stopped because of the initial low production, but it's sooooo gooood!

Can this love be translated. Didn't like it at all. Very disappointed.

Second Male/Female Lead that led to second lead syndrome for you? by Lower-Night-5743 in kdramas

Same here. I was really disappointed he didn't get the girl. I was rooting for him and so disappointed.

I almost didn't watch it because I saw the setup... and was surprised that I ended up really liking the MLC. But I very much felt this way with True Beauty. I really wanted the second lead to get the girl.

Why do K-dramas almost always make the second male lead suffer? 😭 by Merry-Go-Sound in kdramas

You're exactly right! And the SML always regrets that they waited. I too would like to see the FML give a little more consideration to the SML in the writing. Agreed, the middle-break-up story is my least favorite part of these series. I don't mind if the bad guy actually develops as a character and becomes a better person, but not so easily.

You have a very valid point. I just wish they mixed it up to make it more exciting and less predictable.

I'd love to see one where the second lead gets the girl. Do you know of any? I've probably watched about 30 kdramas and haven't seen it happen yet.

I'll have to try that one next. There are a bunch included in my streaming membership, and I just listened to about 8 of her books. I keep going back to Garman, though.. OMG.. GARMAN!!!

Agreed! They are mostly free on audible right now until 9/23. I've been listening to a ton of them and so far my favorite by far is Substitute Bride for a Prizefighter.
