hi, flowerbossa
i watch the "more beautiful than a flower" about 3 years ago from my asia cable channel. i love the story and the performance of the drama's actors and actresses.kmm got my attention at that time. i try find more his works but no luck until the white tower come out. i love the japness version's white tower better.
happy new year

Hello Michelle,
Thank you so much for dropping me a note - it's been 2 years since we've talked^^
I was so glad for KMM last night for winning the MBC Grand Award. I hear that "Fake Family" is a good one, so I'm hoping to watch that next. It's interesting to hear what you thought about "White Tower" - have to confess I have seen neither (actually there are 2 Japanese versions and both are very popuar) so it might be fun comparing them. KMM said he felt a lot of pressure because Karasawa was really good.
You have a happy new year too!
love,
flowerbossa
