need AA for my addiction!!

Once upon a time there was Meteor Garden..then the likes of Queer as Folks, The OC, Nip/Tuck, Desperate Housewives, Entourage, Vegas, Prison Break, etc. etc....

As I thought the DVD series epidemic had passed...my dear mother introduced me to a Korean (I thought I would never ever like the Korean ones!!!) drama series..."Jumong - Prince of the Legend". At first I thought it was silly...but now I have to admit that I'm addicted to this Jumong...in our house it's THE dinner time conversation..and believe it or not..even for my dad!!!!

Ladies and gentlemen...allow me to introduce to you all..."JUMONG" - hope to spread the addiction... - I kinda need a friend to go to (KD)AA (Korean Drama Addiction Anonymous).

Synopsis:
“Magnitude is about to start.”

You are about to go back to the time of Goguryeo, a time which was bigger than now.‘A time when our nation was the most beautiful’, ‘A time when our nation was the center of the world’. Have you ever met such a time?! dares to journey into a time no one has ever gone back to. The most surprising time in history has come back 2000 years later, a time when the nation made China fall down to their knees and when we fought other nations without any fear.
Meet a hero bigger than the myth.Alexander, Genghis Khan, we have the hero who overwhelmed his generation and changed history, Jumong! Up to now we have been used to dramas dealing with the history of kings and knights but now we are about to challenge in creating a drama with the birth of a true hero. A name only remembered as a myth. Get ready to meet Jumong, the hero who opened up the skies of the Old Joseon, which was once ours, by fighting thousands and thousands of armies.
Meet the love even bigger than the history.‘Love’ seems to be the one common denominator across people of all generations and nations. ‘Love’ gets swept away with the waves of time and also gets hurt with biased views in societies, but it also creates a new kind of history by wrestling against adversity and the trials of time. True love, which is uncommonly seen in history, is re-drawn through the drama of our once forgotten history.Through the wisdom and courage of Korea’s first queen So Seo-no…
