South Korean soaps?








So in a random comment from a Chinese friend of mine, "Asian women love South Korean men," a conversation was struck up. He cited the popularity of South Korean soap operas in popularizing their men as romantic and sweet. The article I found from SFGATE is below, and for fun I added a few other countries soap opera pics.

I've seen the top one, "My Sassy Girl". It's pretty good.

"My Name is Kim Sam Soon" is super awesome. I love it so much, despite it being completely emasculating.
