At W13,000 a ticket, that comes out to around W40 billion, and when one adds this to W60 billion in tapes and copyright imports, the film is expected to make about W100 billion in Japan.

| T his is one of the best Korean dramas I've seen - I think Bae Yong Joon & Kim Hye Soo's chemistry was great! I just bought the DVD & it's worth every penny I must say, although I have yet to finish the episodes as it's about 44 of them but I'm finding it very good! It's different from the other Kdramas I've seen - this is one of the best! I love the music as well or OST of this drama! I'll rate this 5 stars! |
