So lame that it is probably okay (maybe just bearable)

From the very beginning, the story did not make any sense. It was ridden with cliches and over the top melodrama. The only good thing this drama had the offer was the chemistry between the lead pair. It has to be noted that the ML was veryyy possessive and borderline neurotic but maybe that is something people find cute in couples. But when together, the leads were undeniably adorable and worth shipping throughout the drama.
Stupid plotlines without much explanation were introduced and the leads, although pretty cute together, lacked any depth or intensity in their own right. Some aspects did not seemed well thought out, like, were they trying to tease a love triangle? Why did some scenes or some characters even exist if they were not lending anything to the story?
It was a light supposed rom-com with not much comedy. The side characters were unremarkable and annoying . Their interactions were boring and pretty skippable. The OST was not memorable and the show had okayish production value. It was an okay drama with zero rewatch value.

Perfection.

It's something that can rarely be used to describe a drama. Normally it starts off good but somewhere things go wrong and the show goes down hill.

Not this one. Perfection is the best way to describe Something About 1 Percent.

I have enjoyed EVERY MOMENT of this drama. Its sweet, minimal drama, smart characters, and has relationships that feel more real and intimate than actual relationships that I've been in. Not only is the acting amazing and genuine, the chemistry is off the charts.

Although this was a remake, it blows the old one out of the water and should be considered to be the ONLY VERSION of this show. Jae In is a dream man and DaDa is someone who every woman should aspire to be.

Truly, I'll be sad to put this on my completed list but for sure, there are many rewatches in my future.

Something so different from other dramas (My 1%)

I came across this drama by accident because I had nothing else to watch but when I noticed the high ratings on Viki, I knew I had to give it a try. But boyyy that was the best decision I’ve ever made. If you’re looking a for a simple story with characters that have an amazing chemistry from the start, this is the drama for you. it’s not drama heavy, and the story behind it could’ve been written better to make it even more interesting, but I kept watching for the romance. Seeing how the characters change over time and how their love just kept growing, despite them knowing it was all supposed to be fake kept me watching for hours nonstop. So again, it’s a light hearted drama, it’s refreshing, and simple, but there’s just something about it that I know I won’t be able to forget.

Just That 1% To Score 10 For This Drama

This was just a lovely drama to watch. The story focused a lot on both the male and female lead and was very well featured in each episode. I liked very much that Jae In (Ha Seok Jin) though tough and arrogant had a very warm and gentle side to him when it comes to true love (and can be quite possessive at times in a cute way). Certain and confident, he held the story/relationship throughout with finesse. One cannot help but wished that we were in Da Hin's (Jun So Min) shoes, swooning to the chase. However, she held her own as the lead actress who did not easily fall into his arms and taught Jae In a lesson or two about love and life.

The show had all the emotions which made me giggle, laugh, cry a little and heart fluttered a bit too to a happy ending.

A beautiful show from beginning to end and highly recommended to those who does not like dramatic love stories. This drama is captivating, easy to watch, no boring in betweens and pretty straightforward. I will not write details in this review as the beauty is discovering them as you watch. Enjoy!!

An amazing rom com

Something about 1 percent hits all the right boxes. It's a contract relationship done right, it is very funny, very romantic and a drama with a message. It hit a home run on everything a drama should hit.

The chemistry between the two leads is also scintillating and very refreshing in the land of open-eyed kisses. Moreover, the business element of the drama was adequate without overpowering the romance. I particularly loved how we did not go through the angst purgatory stage that romance dramas like to delve in . Everything still just flowed even when there was that tension.

The music was also very good and the supporting cast all had very compelling story lines. Usually in dramas like this, the support cast are just fillers but not in Something about 1 Percent.

The message was also solid . "Someone's 1% can be someone elses 99% of luck"so be kind. Essentially.

Did I mention that the chemistry is SIZZLING ????

I definitely recommend this drama.

I hope I and everyone as well will find their that 1 percent chance which will make them a better person if not a perfect one.

You reap what you sow and what you give comes back to you... This is the sweet story of DaDa and her grumpy man.
It is fast paced and the plot is on point. Usually the problem with this kind of sweet drama is they drag it out as much as they could, (hello, My Secret Romance) but this is just the opposite. In the beginning the male lead seemed off and also - im sorry Ha Suk Jin- old for his role but later it turned out really good.
We get a last minute second OTP which makes the show just perfect ^^

If you think what you need is one more happy ending then definitely watch it. :)
