Lady Jan: I'm listening to the drama's OST sung by Jang Nara as i'm typing this. "Dong Yi" is such an interesting drama and its a pity its ratings couldn't be higher or surpass "Gaint" during its final episode :< However the average ratings for the drama is still not bad for such a long drama and alot of its fans were even hoping that it could be extended as they couldn't get enough of Dong Yi's adventures. Some were suggesting online that the producer could consider making a new drama on Dong Yi's son, Prince Yeoning and his journey towards becoming a King. I can't wait to start watching "Dong Yi" episode 59 English subtitled which is just available online today. Can't believe i have been following this drama for the past 8 months! Time really flies :> The cast of "Dong Yi" has done a great job of producing such an exciting and great quality drama for us drama fans. Really brightens up my days and makes me look forward to watching each episodes whenever i start on a new entertaining and meaningful drama. "SungKyunKwan Scandal" is the next drama i'm hooked to after "Dong Yi", watched 2 episodes on KBS World and it is so fun and entertaining. For those who are looking for another great historical drama to watch after "Dong Yi", do give "SungKyunKwan Scandal" a chance ;>
