풀하우스--Korean Drama




This drama is great! I found it online with English subtitles.

Here's a clip:



**If I marry a Korean man my first boy child will be named: Young-Jae....I think its a great name


풀하우스 (Pul hauseu) (Full House)



So I've started watching another Korean drama. These Korean dramas are so addicting. This is the 3rd drama that I've watched.

Full House is a 16-episode South Korean television drama broadcast by KBS in 2004. This is a televised version of a comic story. It is also known as "浪漫满屋" in Chinese. A season 2 for Full House is said to be expected, and there has been 20 episodes written. It is to be expected to air in Autumn 2009.

This drama attempts to answer the question of whether two people can be in love only on paper. It also explores the meaning of the family by presenting that no matter how hard the present may seem, the world is still a good place to live on because of those who bring hopes into our lives through their presence alone.

This drama features diverse characters: considerate, caring, frank, patient, and sticking to life’s basic values. But no matter how different the personalities, everyone finds happiness in the end.

This drama is based upon a manhwa of the same title, Full House by the Korean author Won Sooyeon.

I am learning Korean so I can understand some. I find Korean dramas on websites where someone has added English Subtitles. If I didn't have the subtitles I'd be confused!
