My Girl, Lee Dong Wook, Lee Da Hae, Lee Jun Ki, Park Si Yeon Rating Options

[BOGCHI]

yeah.. nothing beats the original, but I must say Toni Gonzaga's younger sister is actually funny.. Kim Chiu is still overacting, which amazingly worked for Lee Da Hae, but not for her.. but I'm liking the dream sequence, they actually pulled off SOME.. overall the drama is not too bad, it has its moment (talking about the remake).

I caught this series because it's currently airing (dubbed in Mandarin) on a channel where I am. It's a really, really, really cute series. I caught myself grinning/laughing my head off multiple times in the series, particularly in the first half of it. And now I want to watch it again, except in the original Korean with English subtitles. That's how good it is. Oh, and the kiss scene in the end is absolutely wonderful. Sweet, but also passionate.

[elle0306]

Ah, does anyone know where I can find the track list of the My Girl OST in Korean? I've searched for it everywhere, but I can only find the transliterated/translated titles/names. I'm not actually Korean, but you can call it a quirk of mine - I always prefer to keep titles and names in their original languages.

[alivia]

Hey, i think I can help you guys.
If you want to watch My Girl, you can watch them all on tudou.com
All series are available.
For the ost, try Imeem?
I'm watching My Girl now, and it gets more addicting after each episode.
Definitely a must watch Lee Dong Wook & Lee Da hee really have good chemistry.

So... I finally got around to watching this. Well, at least starting it. I just finished Episode 01. Here are my thoughts--

Although I don't think Lee DaHae is AS gorgeous as everyone else seems to think she is (I think she's more cute and pretty than gorgeous), I must say that I'm impressed thus far with her as an actress. She seems to be a pretty good-- and natural-- comedian. Her acting is a bit exaggerated, but NOT outside the realm of reason or believability. In fact, I feel as though Joo YooRin, her character, possibly WOULD act that way in "real life." As a seasoned fast talker and-- let's face it-- liar, she probably has a flair for the dramatic, and DaHae manages to pull off that confusing sort of almost "innocent" deception and exaggeration pretty darn well. It's a delicate balance, and I really can't imagine any other actress pulling it off THIS well... or, at least, not any better.

She "sold" me on her character (and this drama) from the moment she began her little charade for the airport staff... sobbing really tragically-- and yet, also comically-- on the floor. Haha, the way her voice quavered... And then the hilarious way that she ran down the airplane aisle, looking for her "darling." Hahahaha. And her singing in the car.



Her Chinese is decent as well. I can understand her without the English subtitles. Kudos to her for working hard on memorizing those lines-- truth be told, she speaks it nearly as well as the Chinese businessmen in the episode (whose Chinese is definitely accented).

As for Lee DongWook, he looks wayyy handsome from certain angles, and then there are some that aren't nearly as flattering. But his profile is to-die-for (I loveee profiles)!!



His character seems sort of "typical" for a male lead thus far... but we'll see as the drama progresses how he makes him stand out But for now, he's gorgeous eye candy <3



I've never understood the appeal of Lee JunKi, but it's probably a matter of personal taste. He's too effeminate for me. But I want to keep an open mind and give his character a fair chance. He's not in this episode much, though. Only for a few cheesy moments in the bedroom

I feel sorry for YooRin. I can't stand those types of good-for-nothing parents... it's obvious that YooRin still loves her father very much, but I think that's out of sheer LUCK on his part than anything else. She seems to have made the best out of very "bad" situations for nearly her whole life... and she doesn't lie because she's malicious or because she wants to "cheat" anybody necessarily... she lies because it's become a survival tactic. And maybe even something of a comfort... she can at least control what happens to her in these fantasy "scenarios." At any rate, she does seem to have something of a conscience... haha, working so hard on cleaning up the house and weeding the garden to make herself feel better for essentially "mooching" off Seol GongChan. It's cute.

Although she did cross the line by selling GongChan's tangerines. But-- if she hadn't-- there'd be no My Girl! Hahaha.



I'm liking the DongWook/DaHae chemistry already. I like the way that the camera shows GongChan secretly smiling at DaHae's antics. And at her little natural quirks, too... like the crazy happy way she began eating dinner after the Chinese businessmen and he gave her permission.

Only complaint I have on that front is that it seems a BIT crazy that neither GongChan nor YooRin recognizes each other from the airplane. I'd think that GongChan would remember that "crazy girl." But it's really a minor complaint.

Overall, I really liked the first episode. I also liked the sort of faint "parodies" of other Korean/Asian idol dramas... I'm guessing those effects were intended. They're a fun bonus

And I'm looking forward to Episode 02 now!!

Totally agree with you tammiest, especially "I'm liking the DongWook/DaHae chemistry already. I like the way that the camera shows GongChan secretly smiling at DaHae's antics. And at her little natural quirks, too... "
The way he smiles at her cuteneess always makes me smile silently to myself
Feel so great ya?

[camj59]

I have so much love for this series. I'm actually watching it again, as a matter of fact. It's as hilarious as I remembered. And Lee Dong Wook and Lee Dah Hae are as cute as ever.

[IKAAA.is.da.neym...]

ohh my! who wouldn't love thiis series?! it's so amazing!!! this is the ever first drama series wherein i find lee jun ki so adorable. and yoo-rin and seoul gong chan we're evver so adorable and cute together!!

this is a series that became very hit in the philippines and they even created a filo version of it.. it is played by Geralad anderson and Kim Chiu

[charmaine412]

^so, you're a Filipino too? I have no clue in your post if you are proud on the remake version or not.

Me, for one is very disappointed to the level that I forgot that they created a remake.

[Girl from Mars]

I wanna watch this drama online but I'm having problems with mysoju.com, do you know where else I can find it (with english subs)?
I'm now at the beginning of episode 2 and it looks really interesting. The only thing I have problems with it's the second guy (can't remember his name) the one that woke up with the married woman.. there are moments that he looks a lot like a woman (no offence to his fans)

[Girl from Mars]

@girl from Mars, you can watch it in Veoh or crunchyroll, but I heard latter still under maintenance.

I already tried there but with no success. I'm now watching episode 3, and it's so good until now I never saw him smile but now every now and then when he's around her or thinking of her he does smile and it's beautiful, it was really tender when he covered her with his jacket and I love the OST

[charmaine412]

^ I also love their OSTs, and I still have all of them on my CP. I always play when I'm bored.

Mysoju is working on me, that's the only site I knew that you can watch MG.

[reflections]

haven't watched anything that hooked me as much as this drama in a while ldh was so cute in this show...haven't had a chance to really see much of her these days..not even in east of eden!

[veronica_s2]

i watched this serious ages ago, but what i cant get out of my head is the snow dome or snow globe (whatever you call it) in that series, does anyone know where i can find it? ive tried ebay, but somehow i cant find it, if anyone knows where i can get it, or links to sites that sells it, please let me know, i really really want it!!

[charmaine412]

^just wanna ask, where are exactly right now? If you're from Phils, Geez! I'm also really looking for it. But they say you can find some on Rustans. Don't be surprised if each of those is expensive.

[veronica_s2]

^just wanna ask, where are exactly right now? If you're from Phils, Geez! I'm also really looking for it. But they say you can find some on Rustans. Don't be surprised if each of those is expensive.

Im in australia (melbourne), i dont care how expensive, i just want it, its so nice and when i first saw it on the series i was like i so have to have it, but ive tried searching it on ebay under so many descriptions but most of them were disney snow domes. *sigh* i guess ill have to search harder then

[♥hippo-holic♥]

My Girl used to be sooo addicted to this series its actually my most love korean series until now.
Even bought the original dvd for this one.
Lee Dong & Lee Da Hae showcases the best chemistry ever they look so compatible, until now im still waiting for the day where they will announce to the world that they are together then i can die happily.

i see there are still a lot of filipino my girls fans here, my girl was shown a few years ago and it was still the best.
and to be honest the filipino remake is really bad, please dont kill me.

[♥hippo-holic♥]

^are you from philippines too?
i thought i was the only one who thinks the remake was really bad.
the acting and the cast of the philippine version just doesnt fit.

well no one can beat the original cast Lee Dong Wook and Lee Da Hae still the best.

[charmaine412]

^ well yeah! Proudly Pinay but not proud in that remake.

Actually a lot of Filipinos hated it, they just ruined my fave drama. But you try to forget it and think that we didn't have remake, it's very effective.

[hyuk_berry]

Hmm. My Girl. My all time favorite series. I haven't seen as many as people who live in Korea of course. But i've seen a handful and this has remained as my favorite.
The acting was amazing and the chemistry between LDH and LDW was so adorable and believable as well. I was always heartbroken whenever she was having a hard time about how much she loved him. and then when he found her later and he was following her around, it was a total change in character for him, because of that love. it was adorable. and he made me cry so much. they both did.

I've seen this series twice, and i'm probably gonna watch it again. it's so good!
Plus, DongWook isn't bad on the eyes either.
neither is JunKi who also made me cry a lot.
all of the acting was really good.

i love how Yoorin always says bashya. it's a cute way of saying fighting. everyone in my family says that now. keke.

[amiichan]

this story is hillarious........the plot is awesome and the characters..wow, the really play their part well...i have watched my girl over and over again and yet it is still one of the best drama i've ever watched...

[XoXo_CalvinChen_...]

And.. Lee Dong Wook. is super sool in this movie...
And JunKi's just so sweet...

Love to see them so so much in the drama.. ^^

Maybe they do make My Girl 2..
Haha.. =)

[forevaasian]

i loved this series. i could watch it so many times because i found it really funny. the funniest times for me were probably wen the main actress was drunk and was throwing her anger everywhere

[mulan06]

My Girl is still my most favourite Korean series. I love the story and the chemistry between Wookie and Mukgu!!!! I wish they will do another series together in the future.

[Dream Chaser]

Really miss this drama so much, miss Dong Wook Oppa and Da Hae Onni..I love every funny scene in this drama, especially when Yoo Rin kick a big stone right after coming out from a restaurant where she then got drunk, and called the stone as a big mushroom..

I love this drama
It's one of my favorite dramas.
Lee Da Hae & Lee Dong Wook are a beautiful couple
The story is great.
Then the soundrack is extra .

Small Question Where are can i find a instrumental version of OST.
Because I want one in particular that which is happening in the last episode when Lee Dong Wook comes to see Lee Da Hae and he wants his birthday and that when Lee Da Hae comes home she sees the snowballs.
If someone finds it that be great.

[Ocean168]

The story was interesting and the cast acted well. One of the Korean dramas which

Both Lee DaHae and Lee DongWook are adorable and their chemistry was good.
How they met each other was cute too..haha..

I like the OST too.

One of the all time favourite Korean dramas….haha..
