Flower Boys Next Door is a Korean Drama based on Yoo Hyun-sook titled "I Steal Peeks At Him Every Day". This is also the third installment of the Flower Boy series on cable channel tvN. The main leads are Yoon Shi Yoon and Park Shin Hye.
The drama started off with a good humor. Park Shin Hye is a shy type of girl as Yoon Shi Yoon is a talkative one. Thus, it's hard to predict how the two will become compatible. The humor is there, as well as the different emotions portrayed.It is a drama worth watching to start your 2013 drama marathon.

This drama is also one of the best drama for 2012 as it is a mind-buggling with its mystery events. It really has a good plot, not boring at all. The drama is Lee Jun Ki's comeback after his 2 year military service and it is also Shin Min Ah's comeback after the hit drama "My Girlfriend is a Gumiho".
Sadly, I heard this drama was underrated in South Korea. (too bad for a very awesome drama) :( BUT, it's popularity internationally is no joke. Amazing drama indeed!

Woah! It seems that there are a lot of good dramas from channel tvN. It is one of the best and most popular drama of 2012. I highly recommend it for everyone, especially for teenagers and those who are in love with kpop. The plot has a fresh concept that is worth keeping an eye on.
The drama is well accepted by the current generation. The main leads are also from the kpop scene, as they call it idols-turned-actor. Eunji is a member of A-Pink and Seo In Guk was the winner of Superstar K in 2009. Infinite's Hoya is one of the supporting leads too.

Channel: SBS
Run: March 21, 2012 - May 24, 2012
This drama is one of the best dramas in 2013. JYJ's Yoochun did a great job with his wide variety of acting skills. In the drama, Yoochun is the crown prince in the Joseon era then, he time travelled 300 years into the future where he met Park Ha (Han Ji Min's character).
The drama has its own Joseon F4 too. :) . There's the historical feel, romance and fantasy in the drama. Be sure to watch it!
