Two 50-episode dramas started on October 5 and both have a lot to offer in terms of star power. Which one will you choose? That choice could depend on the type of drama you prefer to see and the actors that star in the drama.

"Glamorous Temptation" is a melodrama starring Joo Sang Wook, Choi Kang Hee and Cha Ye Ryeon. "Six Flying Dragons" is a historical drama starring Yoo Ah In, Shin Se Kyung and Kim Myung Min.

 "Glamorous Temptation" is the first 50-episode k-drama ever made in a modern setting.

In an interview with the Korean media outlet Star, the drama's producer Kim Sang Hyeob explained why the story would take so long to unfold.

"This is the first time a modern day drama has been made which consists of 50 episodes," said Kim Sang Hyeob. "The drama focuses on every character's internal sadness and happiness."

Despite the fact that it will continue for 50 episodes, not much of the plot has been revealed.  The drama's synopsis says that Choi Kang Hee will play an ambitious woman, who finds it difficult to deal with the world of the wealthy that she finds herself in. Joo Sang Wook plays a powerful man in politics. Chae Ye Ryeon plays the woman who is jealous of Choi Kang Hee. It's the first time in Choi Kang Hee's career that she will play a mom.

The drama also stars Kim Sae Ron and Nam Joo Hyuk.

On the other hand, "Six Flying Dragons" promises a more complicated plot and a focus on action rather than introspection. The drama focuses on the story of the real-life crown prince Lee Bang Won, who helped his father found the Joseon Dynasty only to find that he was not considered to succeed him. Yoo Ah In plays the crown prince. Kim Myung Min plays his sworn enemy, the prime minister Jeong Do Jeon and Shin Se Kyung plays his love Boon Yi.

Yoo Ah In is the actor of the moment, also appearing in the hit films "Veteran" and "The Throne." The drama also stars Yoon Gyoon Sang and Byun Yo Han. And it's a prequel to the successful saeguk "Deep Rooted Tree," re-uniting Shin Se Kyung and writers Kim Young Hyun and Park Sang Yeon.

Which one will you watch? Fifty episodes is a commitment.
