Hey Girls…Guess what?!…

I have six sisters. One of them happens to be blessed with a keen ear for music.  Wickedly brilliant.  If she is into a band-odds are they will be world famous within 5 years.  Yep-I can think of several major record companies that would have given anything for her radar.  So, you can imagine I got curious when I kept hearing her mention “Korean dramas”.  I have Hulu Desktop which turns your desktop into a TV screen.  I had been watching episodes of Peep Show and a Hulu ad popped up saying they now have Korean dramas.
I keep thinking to myself, Gabrielle is always talking about those Korean dramas-they have to be good-she always finds cool stuff like this.  So I start browsing the channel Dramafever and reading the synopses on all these shows. They are more like epic mini-series.  Everything from romance, comedy, action-adventure, intrigue, suspense-the whole nine yards.  I checked to see if I could get closed captioning and yes! and so I start watching Oh My Lady.  Reading the captions while watching was easy to get used to.
and Ladies,
Oh My God!
Oh My Lady had me hooked by episode 2 and I can’t remember the last time I enjoyed watching a series so much.  First of all, the stories are really, really good. Secondly-the dudes are HOT!  Third reason-you have about 20 one hour long episodes to savor and the acting is quite good for the most part.
I am currently enjoying Spring Waltz and My Girl.  Talk about brutal love triangles and twists and turns in a plot.  Juicy-like a ripe orange.  And Lee Da Hae that plays the role of Joo Yoo-rin in My Girl is fantastic. What a character, I mean this girl is something else.  A naughty minx and tender hearted at the same time.

And Lee Joon Ki (as Seo Jung-woo) is the most beautiful man I think I have ever seen on screen. I mean SMOKIN’ HOT!

Beats the hell out of all the stupid boring reality shows we get. I don’t give a damn about some flaky shallow housewife, or skanky twit on the east coast. I watch TV for an escape and to enjoy a good story that takes me away from the daily drudge and ho-hum.
Trust me girls-go check it out. There’s a reason Gabrielle’s been watching them for “God knows” how many years!
Best of all: Watch when you want, for as long as you wish- and it is FREE! Enjoy the videos below.
