(41)Our Price: US$20.99List: US$28.99Save: US$8.00 (28%)August 13, 2006 Awww.Oh, no. They're sold out. Aww. I missed the chance. I thought people were not interested in it anymore. I guess I was very wrong. I've seen the Music Video on a web site and was instantly hooked on it. I have the English version, but it was very difficult to hear the song. The video is really awesome. It may be the BEST MV I've ever seen. For those who are planning on getting the album, you better get yours before YesAsia stop selling it. I can truly say this is a classic. I hope I get my copy before it's too late.

Secret (MBC TV Series)(US Version)
Secret (MBC TV Series)(US Version) DVD Region 1, 4
(26)Our Price: US$69.99List: US$99.99Save: US$30.00 (30%)August 4, 2006 Very DisappointingHonestly, I did NOT like this peice of film.
First of all, the storyline was tedious and unconventional. Sure the movie is called "Secrets," however, they did not have to drag it for 20 episodes. 17 episodes should have been enough. The characters were hypocritical, confusing, and non-convincing. The main actress was too naive. It seem like she had no clue about what was going on at all. She let people push her around and abuse her. The mother was also naive and blind. The sister was a manipulator. She was evil and very annoying. The actors were no help at all. They did not know how to show their love and were sometimes confused.
The good thing about this movie is the suspense. It keeps you guessing and desiring what will happen next with the end of each episode. I thought the ending was also good.
Overall, I wouldn't recommend you to purchase this film. It might make you want to slap some sense into the cast and it doesn't really touch you like other films. Most of the time, it angers you. There is not much to sympathize. Most of all, this show does not have a good looking cast.

July 25, 2006 Among The Best.All I can say is, this movie is one of the greatest K-drama movie out there. It is up there with "Save the Last Dance for Me" and "Winter Sonata." They may share similar plots and ideas, but they are unique in their own way.
"Stairway to Heaven" is a great series. It plays with your emotions. Sometimes you feel like slapping the actors/actresses. Sometimes you feel sympathy for them. And sometimes you love them. One part that I really like is the part where Han Jung-Suh(Choi Ji-Woo) is at the beach and she completely loses....I think I shouldn't go there. I may spoil the movie for those who have not seen it yet. The sub-title is good. I did not catch any typo. The cast is very talented. They portray their character well. In my opinion, Shin Hyun Jun was the best actor.
However, the movie did have some disappointing parts. I did not like the fact that the step-mother was too evil, not to mention her daughter. I felt that it was a little too much. At times, I can predict what the actor/actress is going to say(and it was only my SECOND time watiching a Korean movie). Sometimes the movie seems to drag along. For this, I cannot give it an excellent rating.
Overall, it is worth watching. I concur with Kim Seung Woo. It is expensive for an "one season" film. But it's good to own some dramas from YesAsia.com. It's well worth it.

May 31, 2006 Good.........but Not Excellent"Save The Last Dance for Me" was an interesting film. However, it did possess similar characteristics from other K-Dramas. What is the deal with the character losing his/her memory? It seems that the idea is quite popular. For instance: Winter Sonata, Stairway to Heaven, and Save The Last Dance for Me. Regardless, the movie was O.K. Actors/actresses were very good. I was deeply disappointed by the ending. I think they should've made a better ending. It was plain and disappointing.

(19)Our Price: US$18.99List: US$29.99Save: US$11.00 (37%)May 24, 2006 THREE thumbs up!!!!This movie is absolutely wonderful. If I had an extra thumb, I would give it THREE thumbs up. This is the first Korean movie I've purchased. I have purchased many of the TV series, but this one blows them out of the water. It was hilarous. I almost choked from eating and watching this movie. I HIGHLY recommend this movie to everyone. You will definitely get your money worth.
