Flower Boy Next Door

    So I had just started watching this like....maybe 3 days ago? It was a drama that an acquaintance recommended. I was a little skeptical because it has the same leading actress from 'You're Beautiful', and 'Heartstrings'. I was disappointed at the ending of You're Beautiful and I still haven't watched any other episode other than the 1st episode of Heartstrings just because I was disappointed that they made CNBlue guy a total jerk.
    But after giving it a try (Flower Boy Next Door that is), I actually liked it. As usual I fell in love with the side man. In this case he is called Oh Jin Rak/Oh Jae Won (the two names will make sense once you see the drama). So let's get to the details:
Title:  이웃집 꽃미남/ Flower Boy Next Door
Genre: Romantic Comedy
Episodes: 16 total
Release Date: 7 January 2013
Cast: Park Shin Hye as Go Dok Mi, Yoon Shi Yoon as Enrique Geum, Kim Ji Hoon as Oh Jin Rak / Oh Jae Won, Park Soo Jin as Cha Do Hwi, Next Door Boys: Go Kyung Pyo as Yoo Dong Hoon, Mizuta Kouki (미즈타 코우키) as Watanabe Ryu, Kim Jung San as Han Tae Joon



    Summary: Go Dok Mi is a shy girl who rarely leaves her apartment 402, but she isn't shy in peeping across the street to look into another apartment's window, where her crush lives in. Meanwhile Oh Jin Rak and his roommate Yoo Dong Hoon live next door in apartment 401. Oh Jin Rak works as a web cartoonist, and has had a thing for Go Dok Mi for 3 years but never actually said anything. Meanwhile a new guy shows up in the scene called Enrique Geum who just came from Spain and is a famous game designer. He has that happy-careless attitude, so it's hard to tell when he's serious.
    Ok this is getting too detailed. Basically its a bunch of crushes back and forth, but at the end of the day the shy girl is the main character since there's two guys that try to get her to be more sociable and more comfortable around other people.

    So there it is. I honestly do recommend this drama. It's sweet. There aren't any characters that aren't extremely annoying, and you can take your pick on the guy you think is hot.
    I do have to say that it does follow the typical korean drama storyline where the girl falls for the guy that's just a bit annoying. For some reason I always end up wanting to have the main girl fall for the nice guy, but it never happens. :/ But at least the main guy isn't a total asshole like usual. Most times they end up being jerks! But not this time. He has that kiddy personality that just brightens anyones day.
    Watch it here: WATCH  This is from dramafever. You don't need to make an account. I just make one because it keeps track of what episodes I have seen , and I can also make a queue.

  Happy drama watching. v^^o
