Recommendations for a really picky, newish kdrama watcher?

I'm just starting to get back into kdramas after not watching them for a few years, but I'm having trouble finding ones I like. I'm realizing that I'm *very* picky. :S I'm wondering if there's anyone else with similar tastes as me that'd be able to recommend ones I might like?

Here's the list of dramas I've watched so far, in order of most to least liked.. as you can see, I haven't liked too many:

1. **Full House** - My favorite of all time. Haven't found one close to this yet.
2. **Pasta** - I liked this one a lot. I think this was the only recent drama I've liked almost as much as Full House. I didn't care much for Seo Yoo-kyung though.
3. **The Greatest Love** - It was pretty good! Still, Gong Hyo-jin is not exactly my favorite actress. Both Cha Seung-Won and Yoon Kye-Sang were great though.
5. **Secret Garden** - Mediocre, I tried really hard to like this, but I didn't like most of the actors.
4. **Lovers in Paris** - Mediocre, this was my first kdrama so honestly I can't remember as much about it. :P
6. **Protect the Boss** - Mediocre, didn't finish because I didn't care for either of the leads... but maybe I'll give it another shot later.
7. **Goong/Princess Hours** - Didn't really like, too "high school" for me...
7. **My Lovely Sam-soon** - Didn't like.
6. **I'm Sorry, I Love You** - Didn't like, too depressing for my taste.
8. **Lie to Me** - Didn't like.
7. **Flower Boy Ramen Shop** - Didn't like.
8. **Boys Over Flowers** - One of the worst things I've ever watched... &gt;.&gt;

If it helps, a few things seem to turn me off...

* High school-based plots
* Extreme campyness, silliness, or unrealistic/fakeness
* Unattractive leads or bad acting (subjective, I know... but I seem to be very picky about how the leads look or act, otherwise I can't get into it)
* Overly sad plots

Maybe I'm just too picky... /sulks

**Edit:** Thanks everyone for the suggestions! I've compiled a giiiiant list to go through. A lot of them were recommended more than once so I'll go into those first. I'll also try some of the more historical or action packed ones too since I haven't looked at any of those yet. Also, I finished The Greatest Love and it was pretty good! I liked the story that unfolded between the 4 girls especially. I liked Yoo In-Na a lot in this one so I'll look forward to trying Queen In-Hyun's Man as a few of you suggested, since she's in that one too. :)

**Edit 2:** Started watching Coffee Prince... I like it so far at ep2, glad I gave it a shot! Also glad to see a familiar face (Lee Sun-Kyun).[Enhancement] MPEG2 streams: New Shift+T>O, #17, Remove duplicate SD NTSC closed captions, removes double captions on Comcast Tivo SD.

[Change] GUI: When running on Windows 7 with Aero, show percentage completion in the Windows taskbar icon.
[Change] Log file message: Change messages: "... signature check failed" to "... file signature not found."
[Change] LPCM output to MPEG-2 PS: If orignal audio is 44.1KHz or 32 KHz, and output is LPCM, force recode to 48KHz.
[Change] MPEG2 recoding: If output file is SD 4:2:2, the VBV size should be 576 instead of the SD 4:2:0 default of 224.
[Change] Navigation bar: Make the area of the navigation bar which is below the thumb-track inactive to minimize accidental navigation.
[Change] QSF save error: QSF save dialog display "error getting output options" if you try to select a new output file name.
[Change] Tools>Options>Alerts: New option to change the "focus stealing" behavior at end of save.
[Fix] Automatic compression: Could produce silent audio output if normalization is set to 0.
[Fix] DVD audio: Verify that the audio streams listed in the IFO file actually exist in the selected VOBs.
[Fix] DVD authoring: Audio errors if source has multiple audio stream that require recoding and primary (playing) isn't stream 0.
[Fix] DVD muxer: Muxer could crash if user aborts while creating initial elementary stream (.tmp) files.
[Fix] DVD open: If "Auto QSF" selected but output was other than MPEG-2 PS, the automatic open after QSF would fail.
[Fix] DVD, open title: Would not always select the correct AC3 stream. Similar problem with select stream dialog.
[Fix] Encoding: Doing two pass encoding, audio or video on an mppeg2 Tivo, MP4, FLV, or ES would stall at the start of pass 2.
[Fix] LPCM source to LPCM output to MPEG2-PS or DVD: If not recoding, application will experience buffer overflow.
[Fix] MPEG2 smart cutting: Updated smart cutter encoder to properly handle escaped 4:2:2 profile and levels.
[Fix] NTSC Closed captions: Fixed issue with caption display not clearing all of the previous captions.
[Fix] Open DVD: DVD folder name not being correctly remembered if opening directly from a DVD drive or virtual ISO drive.
[Fix] Open DVD: DVD folder name not being remembered if you did an auto QSF or QSF to batch.

[Fix] Titling: When adding a new title, the resolution and aspect ratio will default to the currently open video.
[Fix] Unpack error 2: On some systems license manager could cause unpack error when program is launched.
[Change] Transport stream: Added new Shift+Tools>Options, "15. Sample points to check for PMT... " to improve subtitle detection.
This change is specifically for users who have trouble detecting subtitles from Finish TV broadcasts. If TVSuite isn't detecting subtitles, try increasing this value to 2,3 or 4. Usually a value of "2" will suffice. What this does is cause TVSuite to scan for different program maps at multiple places in the source file. We've found that Finish broadcasts often start with one program map and then change the program map part way into the file to reflect the presence of subtitle streams. This should help detect that.
Beta build 566 has been posted.
There are quite a few changes in this beta so please read the release notes carefully.
For those where the AC3 frames go silent when authoring, we think this has been fixed.
There is now a dual pass encoding option on the DVD output options video tab. In our experiments we have found that this significantly improves the quality of the output DVD at low bit rates ( < 3 Mbps). NOTE: When using the dual pass encoding, the estimated time remaining gets reset for each title and is not reliable. This will be addressed in an upcoming beta.
The DVD re-encoder now offers a multi-threaded option (enabled by default) which gives a 20-30% speed improvement when recoding on dual core systems. We haven't done speed tests on quad cores.
Beta Build 567 has been posted.
Some nice new enhancements in this release, so please check out the release notes.
You can now queue multiple DVD projects to the batch queue.
Beta Build 568 has been posted.
Please see release notes for changes and fixes.
If you still need to have "Ignore Transport Stream Maps" checked to open your files, then try setting "#11, Number of Times a PMT has to be read" to a larger value like 10 or 20. The default for new installs has been increased from 6 to 10, but won't change for existing installs. This parameter is
