A Lenda do Mar Azul (2016)

I watch this drama aftee I show the teaser; it seems entertaining but I ended up thinking  this is OK drama not as great as advertised
What I like :
1. The Story line was enjoyable about the love between the mermaid and human
2. I love the setting, location, and the cinematography
3. Its a happy endung story.. my favorite kind of dama :)
4. Gorgeous main leads (handsome and pretty)

What I don't like :
1. I feel lack of chemistry between two main leads; it's sad becauss those pair are most anticipated pair to compete with dots
2. Dissapointed with Jun-Ji Hyun acting in here. I want to cry watching it. For one of the most high paid actrees, I just feel like her acting is so so..  I watched my love from the star and I thing her acting was so much better in those drama
Overall this is still an enjoyable drama . But I don't think it's worth to rewatch

I loved how they played with the past life and the present life in a way that every character fit like a glove. That mixed with a heartwarming love story and fantasy makes the perfect drama that doesn't make you bored not even once. Also the whole cast was magnificent. So many great actors that made their characters come to life in such a natural way.
Nevertheless,i give it 9.5 and not a 10 because i was annoyed towards the ending...i felt like the last episode was just a way to add more to the drama so i was pretty annoyed with the fact that they had to do that just to make it a little longer.(if you've seen it you know what i talk about) But i got over it and i can finally say that this is a must watch!

The female lead is so stupid! yeah, I know she didn’t know anything about humans, but she still lived in the ocean. Where is her backstory? She was alive and experienced stuff. But in the first episodes she acted like a dead fish and the worst part, she continues to make stupid mistakes. (eating with her hands, showing the pearls to Nam Doo, saying she doesn’t have a birthday) She could have at least tried to act normal, and learned some common sense. lack of communication between the characters. Their fights were annoying and unnecessary. Just say what’s bothering you! We have been through this a million times. Do you have to drag it out, just for the sake of it. I also found myself wondering why they started to like each other. They barely talked about "real stuff" And she was so dumb, so it felt like he was treating someone with brain damage. The romance was a little dry, and I didn’t like that she completely innocent. And why he didn’t take her to a doctor when he found out she wasn’t sane? it was also very predictable. (the reincarnation story was boring and cliché so I skipped most of it) He was a bit controlling (when he told her to stop dancing and wear longer clothes) She also did everything he said. And the "I will die, if you die" thing was stupid. The right thing to do is keep living, move on and try to find happiness. In the end, why did she go to his house and embarrass herself like that? None of them are supposed to remember you stupid! I hated the erase your memories stuff. He didn’t want to have his memories taken, yet she still did it and cause more suffering in the end. It was also sad that none of the other characters remembered her and the stuff they went through. The villains were stupid and boring.
Overall, I did like it, and enjoyed watching it (if I look past some plot holes) I was excited for the next episode and wanted to know more. I also finished it, something I don’t do with a lot of dramas. It was different in some ways. They dragged the episodes, but stuff still happened. I did predict some of the stuff that what was going to happened, but it was still fun.

Entertaining at times but disjointed

Overall this drama was enjoyable to watch and there were moments that kept me on the edge if my seat but I felt that the last couple episodes ended flat and it didn't tie up lose ends that I was hoping would be revealed. Some of the back story for the characters was disjointed and I felt could be explained better. But overall it was pretty fun and the acting was phenomenal, the acting was my favorite part of the drama and Heo Joon Jae con artist shenanigans made for entertaining scenes. I would definitely watch this drama at least once since its unique and a fun story involving past love and modern love.

Whoever said this show was good; lied to me. I mean everyone has their own opinions and it's not a terrible show. This show had it's entertaining parts and I laughed here and there and I also liked the fact that the main girl had people that could relate to her. I like the girl from my sassy girl, I've never seen a Lee Min Ho drama but nothing about this drama was special or popped out to me. I'm literally skipping through because nothing about this drama is popping, I don't necessarily care for their chemistry but I don't mind it either. Literally my favorite character is the side one that makes fake ID's and doesn't talk but has a crush on the little mermaid over here. The story is pretty meh. Everything is a little back and fourth and of course main lead has daddy issues because why else would he act this way? This show is okay. Other's would probably like it but this isn't my type of fantasy romance drama. More like meh drama, but it killed time.

I don't usually write reviews but I felt the urge to do so in this case.
This drama is something you don't see everyday. It is just so well done in my oppinion. Already rewatched all the available episodes thirce!
The actors, the music, the atmosphere, everything is perfect.
It also has so many life lessons, and really makes you think about life itself. I recommend to anyone to watch this, you will not regret it. The comedy in this drama is something I rarely met. I actually laughed till I cried.

10/10 this is a must watch!

Also if you enjoy fantasy/mystery/sci fi and comedy this is just for you. It resembles somehow my love from another star, given the fact that we have the same actress in both and the story has the same feeling to it.

This drama is my #1, my favorite, and my all-time rewatch. I watched this drama and laughed, cried, and fangirled a lot. The moment I found out Lee Min Ho and Jun Ji Hyun were in it, I knew it was going to be good. I fell in love with Tae O (Shin Won Ho's character) and I've rewatched this drama more than four times. I loved this sooooo much and I was so sad after finishing it. This wasn't a typical drama to me, either. I was on the edge of my seat the entire time through each and every plot twist. Sim Chung and Heo Joon Jae's relationship was absolute goals and they were soooo cute.

long time ago i didn't watch something that made me happy and excited while watching like this one
strong logical plot as i love
cute romance and full of events

all the events were logical and connected very well

i know the drama is strong if i watched it and enjoyed much although i'm not in drama mood

sure you won't regret watching it

it's a masterpiece
although i'm not fond of fantasy or supernatural genres, but i loved every minute in it
sure i'll keep to rewatch

Loved it the second time around

This show really demonstrated to me that you need to be in a certain mindset for some shows. The first time I watched this, I HATED it! However, when a friend wanted to watch it, I decided to give it another chance. I'm so glad I did! This was a wonderful show! There was some silliness, some seriousness, and a beautiful romance. The flashbacks to the Joseon period were very well-done, and new clues were revealed throughout the show, so you never quite knew what was going to happen. This show has, by far, the best ending of any K-drama I’ve watched. It wasn’t thrown in as an afterthought, it wasn’t rushed, it was just lovely. I can highly recommend this show without reservation.

The Little Mermaid, Kdrama not Disney

Take my favourite childhood cartoon, stretch it by ten times its duration, remove Ursula and all the lovely Menken melodies, replace it with the stomach growls of a perpetually hungry Gianna Jun, throw in the neuralyser from Men In Black, and you've got this Legend of the Blue Sea. A tad too formulaic in many spots, but one is tempted to overlook them all, as the pleasant young official always has. The parallel storylines, and seemingly inevitable historic doppelgangers raise a lot of questions, but ultimately, it all ties together all right. The fishy bits were rendered quite well too.

Very enjoyable drama!

LOTBS is a very enjoyable drama. I enjoyed it and the genre is mixed up uniquely and perfectly. Each character has a unique personality! This is also a very good Rom-Com drama!
The plot is very good and unique! I like how they mixed up the Historical and Modern times with the Rom-Com and somewhat mystery genre.
The actors' acting is really good! It is in fact exceptional. The props and costumes used were also kind of realistic IMO hehe! This is probably one of my favorite K-Dramas I've watched!

The ending is very unique too. I thought HJJ completely forgot SC, but he didn't! Thankfully he wrote all the things that happened in a notebook, which made me surprised. I'm happy they got a happy ending!
