a weak hero doesn't mean he can't fight, but he knows how to handle vengeance and self-bravery

NEED A SEASON 2 BUT THE CONTINUATION IS ON WEBTOON!! huhuhu it was very entertaining and the fact that it breaks my heart because many things were getting involved by their friendship because of betrayal. but this drama was interesting from the beginning till the ending was a cliffhang a bit. Adding it to my favorites, but I need to explain a bit but not that long since the story seems confusing but i'll try to give a summary to it.

But, i'll share a bit since I saw a comment from the website I've been watching kdramas and it was actually a prequel. Gotta find it on webtoon to read the story where it begins to be very exciting tbh. but they said its different but i'll try I guess.

The story talks about how a student handles bullies in school, much more of giving revenge and for the sake of giving them what they deserve to be treated. to fighting scenes to friendship scenes. injustices from the weak hero turns to be so powerful, involving his life to be in despair and how his education and all destroyed because of blaming the people who gave too much attention to him to be mad to give punishment. From the plot itself, it seems interesting but when I get to watch the drama, now I realized that I got very entertained because of the action and fighting scenes that makes it look even attractive. I never had been obsessed about this drama because it is one of the best action high school series I've watched. I think the story, to be specific, is how oneself struggles to find a way to give revenge and seek for what's right by using violence since most of the time, high school violence (in most cases in some kdrama series) are not given attention to be solved. That blames the society and the high positioned leaders as well. getting involved and justice not been served.

The ost in short fits the atmosphere of the drama in every episodes. It seems to give so much intense from every fighting scenes and the bonding moments with their brotherly-friendship. Giving most of the scenes such feels as well. I would also note the cinematography of this drama, because it could also blend with the scenes most especially the fighting scenes.

The characters, with the cast was WOOOOOH, they were entertaining from their scenes on screen, their emotions gave out and their actions scenes was on point! I also fell their friendship as well from where they were until the end was kind of sentimental. But not to spoil so much, the cast was very promising as well ever since the 2 male leads, I saw them from their previews kdrama roles as well.
- Park Ji-hoon, as the yeon shi-eun he got this role very lucky. many of the viewers appreciates his acting skills even myself could appreciate him much, he even improved a lot from his role from the previews drama i've watched, at a distance spring is green. A promising actor as well!!
- one of my favorite actors as well, Choi Hyun-wook as ahn soo ho. I got so attracted by his role from this drama. The acting skills was very entertaining and how skilled he was. Most of his roles especially some drama series he was casted, this was the first kdrama I've seen his fighting skills too! I fell in love from the first web drama I watched seeing him, Real:Time:Love. A promising rookie actor as well!
- Hong kyung as Oh Beom Seok, hmmm this is the first drama I saw his role and very well done! I guess he was also promising actor and while watching his scenes, seems very real as well. Even if I hated his role from this drama, he deserve attention to the viewers and might as well have the main role from future drama projects as well.


Overall, I hope it has a season 2 since the ending was seems a cliffhang after all. But I would look forward to the webtoon version since this was (again) a prequel.
Good for binge-watch and a time killer as well. I think in most cases, I would probably no recommend to beginners unless if they are interested to action series. A must watch to kdrama fans as well!

Looking forward to the main casts roles soon!!!

"woo to the young to the woo~!"

This drama was too cute to be true haha. the whole episodes of this drama has many definitions and moral lessons to take. The whole series keeps me saying that young woo is tooooo cuteeee from her role haha. The plot of the drama is something very new to me. The first time were I get to know well about what autism really looks like and based from my expectations, the actress of young woo deserve so much awards to receive because of her good acting skills and I guess it might take a while for her to be an autistic being.

What I like about this drama is how autism was presented in reality. Its more realistic, as I never heard of an autistic attorney ever in kdrama land. I really love the plot of the story because again its something new for me to look forward before watching the whole episodes. I have a little expectations about this drama, but it seems that the story made me fluttered because of how special this drama for me; that adds up to my lists as the best comforting drama <3. Even every first 10-12 minutes of the drama gave me cuteness overload including the last 10 minutes of the drama full of expectations that keeps me binge watching the whole series.

The cast seems to be very appreciated because their acting was good as well! their characters from this drama made them more famous and well-known (thanks to the director and writer of this drama!). Woo Young-Woo's chingu, Gond Du-rami as their friendship greeting was too cute that I could always remember her name thanks to that, Woo Young-Woo's first and endgame relationship with Joon ho as the another green flag guy in kdrama land who appreciates and loves Young-woo in any perspective of her life as he accepts who she is. Her colleague, attorney jung myung-seok who had an unexpected stomach cancer, attorney soo yeon who accepts young woo as her co-worker at hanbida firm, and lastly, the red flag guy but had a character development, attorney min woo. Her mother attorney soo mi and her dad, Woo gwang-ho that gave young-woo a meaningful life at the end. These cast were soo special from this drama because each one of them gives meaning throughout the duration of the drama. And oh, shoutout to Young-Woo's brother, hoping to see them again in the next season as their bond as siblings would grow.


Overall, the endgame of the drama, also an happy ending made me cry because the story was too heart warming till the end. Waiting for season 2, release date not yet confirmed. But I would willingly wait patiently for the next season of what challenges they would take because of another challenge they would take.
Good for binge-watch, very recommended for beginners, the ost made me fell in love with the drama as well because it fits from the atmosphere each of the whole episode. And finally, confirming that I'll watch it again soon :>

more about k-idols, not much romance; the tags guides you on the way

this drama since it was only 14 eps, i think there were things that I need to look into more. especially luice and soo-rin's relationship. I think it has more lesser romance, because it really talks about conflicts of being an idol (from the title itself, miracle). the plot was something unexpected for me. not the same as other dramas that talks about idols about their dreams. this was the second drama for me that i've watched that talks about k-idol's experiences and struggles. i really looked forward because of the romance, but I guess I was just a little confused at the ending. the question is "where did lee soo-ri choose, luice or shi-woo?" until the last scene made me hooked. i think the ending seems to take the spot were all the 3 main leads shined again in the end.

I rated it just an 8 because even if it was less romance but more on comedy and idol career drama, for me the tags really helped others a lot. I really understood why other viewers dropped them, but I guess for me it seems like something was really missing. but what I like about this drama is more different than the other idol dramas i've watched (just like imitation but still imitation was better than this one in my opinion.).

A mother can be a good, and a bad one.

From it’s beginning till the end, this drama never disappoints until the end! I love how this drama is all known to kdrama fans and I never regretted to watch this first other than the ongoing kdramas that has no similarities with the story of the good bad mother. Also, from the name itself I do agree that Kang Ho’s mother, Young Soo might not be that perfect mother the same as my own mother. A mother can be a good and at the same time a bad mother but in different ways and it’s aspects to consider. Including of how for me as a kdrama fan, it was a better way to start this drama and this might be one of my favorite comforting kdramas I’ve watched, including summer strike, TFTW, and others :’). I might take longer to take note with regards to this drama, because I would consider this as one of the greatest masterpieces and so far confirming as one of the best mother-son/daughter relationships. I’ll go with the plot/story and the cast/characters.


STORY/PLOT
The story starts off with A single mother, Jin Young Soon who owns a pig farm in a small village who raised his only son, Choi Kang Ho. After her husband’s death due to fighting for justice with regards to their traumatic past from burning their old piggery farm from an well-known suspect during the 1980’s, her mother lose hope from her husband and disciplined his son Kang Ho while growing up and gaining his power as he graduated as a top student and one of the prosecutors in the court. As he turned a cold-hearted prosecutor, he and his mother discover slowly their past as Kang Ho dive deeper with his connections from his clients that are high positioned leaders in a company and challenged to politics and power. With an unexpected accident came from him, he returns from his hometown. On the other hand, Kang Ho’s childhood friend and schoolmate Mi Joo who was known from a soft hearted, kind a strong sense of justice, also reconnected with Kang Ho from his recent accident, unfolding the secret both has. Kang Ho goes back, slowly recovers until he slowly remembers everything he has been through, including his past relationships from his old village he grew up, with her mother taking care of him and together as both and their friendly neighbors fight and supported one another, making a strong relationship with each and one of them. My tears are worth it actually :’))

Phew, this was so long to type a note from the story to be explained further for the sake of my future self to rewatch this wonderfully made series!! I love the story, the flow of the story was well made, including the great character developments that the writer also added. I also liked the cliffhangs of the few episodes that made me think twice of watching the next series asap! No flaws to begin with, great chemistry from the cast and their friendship-relationships that connects their way of living each and every one of them with many purposes. A good 14-episode kdrama series, with no unnecessary flaws and plot holes, just loved the drama so much with less explanations!!


CAST/CHARACTERS
First and foremost, I really love their casting so much!! It’s that I have less things to say but to summarize their great acting skills, I do believe most of them has great potential to discover and enter different leading roles that can help their careers to be well recognized!! A big thanks to the casts, whether leading and supporting casts who did their best they can and leaving me with tears till the end :’) Not ending my note here, but I’ll thanked the most recognized actors and actresses who shined so much from their roles itself. Also, never forgetti the two gurads even if their mission was leading them to despair, they were on Kang Ho's side :'>

Starting off, Ra Mi ran as Jin Young Soon also known from the title itself, the Good Bad Mother. I love her so much from her role!! My very first kdrama encounter from this drama and her acting feels surreal!! She has potential as well to be part of the different type of roles in her future projects! Less thing to say to her since it’s my first time seeing her. But with her character, she’s kinda disappointing, but at the same time as a hardworking and a single mother, we cannot blame a mother’s love for her only son :’) Rooting for her future endeavors and her future kdrama projects she would be casted soon! Might dive in to her past kdramas!!

With Lee Do Hyun as Choi Kang Ho, the prosecutor. I really love how we was part from the casting. I cannot believe that he also did well with this drama and love the way he acts from his chosen project, which is this including his character. Well known from his big roles from The Glory 1 and 2, Youth of May and 18 again. My very first encounter was from the drama Clean with Passion for Now and Hotel del Luna (I cannot remember which one I saw him from his role but so far, these both are). He was proving himself with so much potential! From supporting roles from both kdramas until becoming his few well known leading roles, he can be anything!! Hoping I could see him more with villain roles. His character is sweet and loving, also Kang Ho never disappoints from the beginning. All In all, he was a promising actor and ever since youth of May, I already added him as one of my favorite actors. Rooting for him!!

Ahn Eun Jin as Lee Mi Joo the soft-hearted childhood friend turned lover of Kang Ho. Ever since my first encounter from a kdrama series The One and Only, from that role itself I already could see so much improvement and knowing that she was a good actress from portraying her character with her emotions. She was also one of my favorite actresses as well. Mi Joo was a loving character that she never disappoints from the beginning until the end of the story :’) But I also felt bad that she had a hard time recovering her deepest pain from Kang Ho :< Rooting for her especially how I wish she could enter different role this time :’)

Last but not the least, the funniest friend and enemy of Kang Ho, Bang Sam Sik portrayed by Yoo In Soo. Ever since my first kdrama from him from at eighteen, all of us are dead as the villain zombie and AOS 1 and 2 from his well-recognized characters from the last 2 kdramas I saw from him, he was really good as well. But I do hope I could see a role like from Lee Do Hyun itself but he was really improving!! His character also was a good but a mean one from Kang Ho until he was protecting and saving them from danger haha. To conclude his short comment from this drama, really love his roles that I have watched including this, and hoping he could show more of his emotions to his future roles. Rooting for him as well! (ESPECIALLY UNCANNY COUNTER 2 AS A LEADING ROLE! ? )

Overall, this was a good watch!! Very recommended to beginners who wanted a comforting kdrama to watch, really great for time kill and binge-watching! Also depending of my decision in the future, rewatching can be optional since there are a lot of things happened that surprised me as well. This is the end of the note, one of the greatest masterpiece that everyone should watch a good mother-son relationship!! <33

Rooting for the casts future drama projects to come! One, two, three… Piggy!!!

the second season is more darker than the usual. lots of twists and turns to come

I have finished watching the second season, and it seems well done and ended a good but not that bad ending... i liked it, but not loving how the story continues because it seems to be less entertaining and the fact where the second season is far darker than the first season that is full of happiness (except the ending:’) ). It’s full of darkness, less chemistry, and less interactions with the characters. Seems the continuation of the story was focusing more of Jang-Uk’s life rising from his death, saved by the ice stone because he’s the King’s star. Liked the overall story of the second season, but I was hoping for more honestly…
So far, both seasons were good for me, but this season was more of unexpected twist and turns. So now, I’ll be talking about the second season from its plot/story (well a little bit for flashbacks), ost and cinematography. And of course, the casts and characters who did so well with how they bring interests watching both seasons <33 Also, this was like the drama series Moon Lovers Scarlet Heart Ryeo, but its more of an historical action-fantasy kdrama that everyone must watch. A mixed genre of Action, Historical, Romance, and Fantasy.

STORY/PLOT
So, the story continues three years later after the incident in Daeho, Jang Uk, the son of the late king of the Royal Place, rises from the dead and saved from the Ice crystal stone as the King’s son. While fighting for the danger coming in the country, the mages continue to unfold the story anew of where it must belong. As Jang Uk became the hunter of the soul-shifters while a young woman, Jin Bu-yeon, the “called long lost daughter of Jin Ho-Gyeong and the older sister of Jin Cho-Yeon (her born name was Jin Cho-yeong), was a prisoner from Jinyowon. As she seeks to get help reclaiming her past and her life as she was in anemia after her own mother decided to bring back to life, to regain her magical powers from her past life. With that, as Jang Uk and Jin Bu-yeon met, Jang Uk slowly heals from the pain he had suffered after his only master, Mu-deok died. Slowly both discover and regain their memories and flashbacks, and Jin Bu-yeon body, finding her ways to regain her powers and energy as she regains memories from a past life, from Naksu and Mu Deok. As both slowly falls for each other, fighting from the missing pieces that left them in pain and suffering. Will they give themselves the answer they wish to desire and the comeback they deserve?
I honestly really love how it ended season 2, but the story seems to focus more of Jang Uk’s healing process of how he rises from the dead and carrying the ice stone inside of him as Master Lee concluded the last season as Jang Uk’s “not yet the end of his life”. I really love the first season, but the second season seems more darker than the first season that is full of surprises and fluttering moments, but this season gives me a scary-thrilling ride and an edge of the seat feels. But while watching, the feeling I have is always present: I miss Mu Deok so much :’)
Overall, for this area, the plot was not really promising. But the ending satisfies me as it belongs where it must be.

OST AND CINEMATOGRAPHY
Well to make this second part short, the ost still brings atmosphere with every scenario represents. I also love how Lia from ITZY shines while singing the ost and its her first time as well! Not really a fan, but I appreciate her as part of the second season’s ost, she has a great voice!! The cinematography is something that I do appreciate the producers as well! Its blending every scene, every part. Most especially the fighting scenes are too realistic :’)

CAST & CHARACTERS
Well, here we are at the last segment of my note. I REALLY LOOOOVE THE CAST SO MUCH! They bring us the joy, happiness, sadness, pain, fluttering feelings, and even they made me laugh of how they were so cute tbh :’)) Some of them that I have know from few kdrama roles improved a lot!! The 3 lead couples were also cute as well :’)) Jang Uk and Naksu/Cho Yeong, Lord Park Jin and Maidservant Kim Do Ju, and last but never forget, Park Dang Gu and Jin Cho Yeon <3 They really do appreciate more recognition!

Lee Jae-Wook as Jang Uk. Ever since the beginning of the season, he’s role never disappoints <33 I love his role both seasons. The fact where he proves us that he has so much potential to enter different roles other than his main roles this time :’)) Well appreciated kdrama actor and plus he might be soon the next hallyu star in the future because of how great he is <33 Giving him more love and support ever since I saw him from one of the first kdrama appearance as Baek-Kyung, Extraordinary You <33

Go Youn Jung as Jin Bu-yeon/ Jin Cho Yeong or known as Naksu in Bu-yeon’s body. Well, I saw her from Law School as the supporting role and the first time I saw her in her main role from this season! She improved well a lot; I do appreciate her discovering a role that fits her as well! She was pretty as well. Her character was okay, not really my favorite but I do love how Bu-yeon slowly acts like Mu Deok and gives me war flashbacks huhuhu :’)) But still, looking forward to her next projects appearing herself from future kdramas <333 Well appreciated and deserve recognition, giving her utmost love and support as well <333

Hwang Min Hyun as Seo Yul, he’s role from the second season never disappoints <33 I love the fact wherever since I saw him from a kdrama series as Go Eun-Taek in Live On. He also improved a lot. His acting skills are also being recognized as well. Seo Yul was one of the few characters that I loved, he was the softie one who gives his all to fight for everything, especially for Jang Uk. Overall, looking forward to Min Hyun’s future roles <33

Shin Seung Ho as The Crowned Prince Go Won. One of my favorite characters who never disappoints as well ever since the first season <33 Huhu I love that the fact he never betrays Jang Uk and stayed by his side whenever someone tempts him to betray Jang Uk. I also love Seung Ho’s role from here. From being the student role, villain role, and now, a prince role :’)) I loooove him ever since the first time watching him from his role as Nam Shi-woo from A-teen and 9-teen <33 He really improved a lot. Looking forward to his future roles and giving him the love and support he deserve <333

Lastly Yoo Joon Sang as Park Jin and Oh Na Ra as Maidservant Kim Do Ju. Huhu one of the couples that I love from the drama <333 I love both of them, the first time I saw Oh Nara was a coach role from Racket Boys and it proved that she is a great actress <333 Looking forward to Yoo Joon Sang and Oh Na Ra’s future roles as well ?

And to the supporting cast, Yoo In Soo as Park Dang Gu and Arin from Oh My Girl as Jin Cho Yeon, they also did so well. Even if they had less screentime duration of being together comparing the last season, they were also one of the cutest couple existed in both seasons :’) Seeing Yoo In Soo from all of us are dead (haha) and arin from the world of my 17 web series, hoping that they could shine more from their acting roles. Hoping they could enter roles that are new to them, and they deserve a leading role as well. rooting for the both <3

I'll thanked Master Lee, portrayed as Lim Chul-soo, never forgetti ur also one of my favorite character in both seasons. WIthout him, Jang Uk and the other characters might not exists and as you're the savior. He's also one of the best supporting actor from a kdrama Vincenzo :P

Overall, a good series. Might not be everyone’s favorite, but I do love the story of how it began. Great for binge-watch and time kill, very recommended for beginners. But I would say that its not wuite good for rewatching since it might bring back the feels that gives me pain and it takes time to have patience while watching hehe :’) But really love the series overall.

Looking forward to the cast’s future roles!! Well deserve recognition <3

unforgettable, historical, and well made kdrama drama series this 2022!! <3

After few months placed on my watchlist, and finally got the chance to watch this EPIC AND LEGENDARY kdrama, I finally deserve appreciation of how I got the chance to appreciate and GIVING LOVE to this drama!!! I loooooove alchemy of souls!! Even if I am far from how it got a trend throughout my fyp tiktok pages, and now I got the chance to watch it since its the summer break!! I do love the story, but even if I was taken a back because historical kdramas are not really my type of kdrama genre, but again this one was a great start (after my first historical kdrama series I've watched, Scarlet Heart Ryeo)!! I am too speechless with the ending, because of course I've been waiting for the whole episodes both season 1 and 2, and here I am watching all eps in 4 days and I have never regretted watching it throughout the whole series because of how unique and very special in a different way the storyline of the drama is!! Expect that this note would be pretty long, but I do hope this would make me remember the things that I do appreciate the love and support from the drama receives due to how the story makes it recognized by many kdrama fans, like me :p.

Now, I'll talk first in regards of the storyline and the plot, telling myself soon why I loved this drama and how *again* appreciated the existence of this drama, especially the writers who did so well with the drama, the cgi, the storyline and how it was written really well that blends with each and every scenes that makes it even more interesting and attracting.

STORYLINE/PLOT
So, the story mainly talks about a magic spell came from a crystal ball, the alchemy of souls (the name itself). Brining power and spirits that switches from one body to another through a soul. With that, from the plot itself, it was set in a fictional country, Daeho which connects to the young mages developing their growth and love as they overcome their challenges and difficulties in life finding the answer that they were looking for in related to the alchemy of soul, how it changes their life through the magic spell.

There we met Jang Uk, the young master of the Jang family who was born from his mother who was a mistress and involved by a scandalous birth that came from his father, who turned to be one of the soul shifters, involved through the magic of the alchemy of soul.

While looking for his destiny and finding the answers of where and how the historical image of his own family was destroyed due to his father and where it all started, there he met Naksu, who was a soul shifter and known as one of the most wanted elite assassin, whos soul is accidentally trapped inside from a weak body, Mu Deok, who turned to be one of Jang Uk's maid/servant from a powerful and noble family in the country. With that, as Jang Uk identifies the spirit inside Mu Deok, which is Naksu the elite assassin, there he declared and told her to be his master.

With that, they discover to learn the different spells and magic that holds deeper through a sword that brings power and strength from a magic occurred from a droplet of water. As Jang Uk and Mu Deok together discover slowly its mystery behind every questions ponders inside their head, until slowly they find its answer and changing their destiny, where their destiny is to be together and fighting for each and every answers they missed to understand. (end of the short summary)

So, I do love how the purpose of this drama was portrayed. From the story itself, it tells the meaning behind the beginning of the story, until slowly it shifts to the purposes of how and where it all began. Alchemy of Souls is one of the dramas that I do appreciate it the most, with the best storyline yet, the smooth ups and downs and unexpected twist and turns from the characters of their different scenarios and challenges they occur.

CAST AND CHARACTERS
Before I'll end this note, since there would be a season 2, I'll thank the cast who did so well with this drama.

Lee Jae Wook, you did so well! I love how he proved himself of how he has so much potential to enter different roles from his next future projects. Slowly I begin to be a fan from his kdramas ever since Extraordinary You (one of my favorite kdramas!) who has recognitions from his role as Baek Kyung <33 Jang Uk also deserves a good ending in the next season hehe :p and also, he might be *soon* the next hallyu stars in the kdrama industry in the future of how he was unforgettably known by many fans like me :p

Jung So Bin as Mu Deok, huhuhu she's the same as Lee Jae Wook, so much potential. Knowing her from the very first kdrama that I saw her from Because this is my first life as Yoon Ji Ho, gosh at the same time, she is so pretty and gorgeous! I'll miss her so much because of how she gives a big part of the first season as Mu Deok. Speaking of Mu Deok, I love her humor and how she strives to change her life discovering her mystery from her past life, I love her willingness to be part of their story with Jang Uk together <333

Hwang Min Hyun as Seo Yul, I liked him ever since I saw him from Live On (one of my favorite kdramas as well!) and he did great from his role as Seo Yul, I could say he's really skilled and gifted to be an actor, and an idol as well <333 He also gave himself and proved to have more potential entering roles soon that is far different and trying roles that he never had. Seo Yul is one of my favorite characters from the drama, he is willing to do anything for Mu Deok and his mate, Jang Uk as one of the mages in Daeho. Even if he encountered a one-sided love from Mu Deok, I do at least recognized Seo Yul how he was independent to himself. And I love him so much from the first season <33 Overall, Loving Hwang Min Hyun <333

Lastly, Shin Seung Ho as Prince Go Won. Shin Seung Ho was well known from the web series role A-Teen and 9-Teen which the very first encounter I saw him from his role. I love how he encountered roles from being the villain from Weak Hero Class 1 (also saw him from this drama) and he also proved to have so much potential!! Entering different roles that made him for me made special, I love and appreciate his effort and recognition as he entered the kdrama industry to be the actor. The Charming Prince from his role, I love the character development he made, where he makes different decisions in order to save his part and his encountered friends (like Jang Uk and Mudeok developing friendship even if not quite shown haha, especially their quarrels and little fights turned to chaotic haha). Shin Seung Ho, you deserve so much recognition as well <333

And to the other main and supporting casts like Yoo Joon Sang as Park Jin, Oh Na Ra as Maidservant Kim Do Ju, Yoo In So as Park Dang Gu and Arin as Jin Cho Yeon, they also did so well and take part of giving recognition from this drama <33 Love the casts from the bottom of my heart and soul, love how they take big part of this drama as well that made well known to many <333


Overall, really a great watch. Love how it never made me disappoint and hoping that season 2 would answer few questions ponder inside my head after the ending :')

A good watch, very recommended to beginners who wants to enter and discover historical drama series, great for binge watch as well!! Rewatchable too!! Love it <33

Looking forward to the casts next few roles in the future!! <333

we grow slowly from endings, then we realize the dreams we wish to come is our first priority

goshhhhh I love how the storyline goes on after season 1 :') It feels like im debating between the cells and the characters haha. I do love how it all started and how yumi find another life to live, which is moving on from her past relationship with woong, until she gets to fall in love with someone she met from work (which is babi). I love the continuation of the story, especially the story gets even more deeper... as its diving deeper to yumi's healing process from her heartbreak and how she changed her life completely due to her dream of being a writer ever since she was little. With the said storyline, I also do love how it is also based from the webtoon. This gave me so much questions to ponder inside my head from the scenes leading through the story, and wondering if this, that, or those would happen. And actually, I do love how I predicted some of the scenes on the go that made me get so proud at myself and binge-watching it as well! I finally decided that the two seasons would be part of my favorite kdramas of all time :>

STORY/PLOT
The story continues after Yumi had her previous heartbreak, as she slowly matured enough, healing from the pain and suffering she encountered. Until then, thoughts ponders her head as she wants to pursue to be a writer. As few of her cells are fading away, but the other cells remains but a different primer cell is leading her life. With that, Yumi and Woong had a different path of life while focusing by their own dreams as they slowly get their success... but then, Babi, a colleague worker who give inspiration to Yumi until as they grow closer, Yumi had decided to open up a new relationship with him. The different path of the cells are having their mission to be a success, but with challenges and unexpected twists and turns to happen with Yumi and Babi. Will Yumi still had the feelings of emotion and love while chasing her dreams to come true?

That question ponders through my head while I was in the middle of the episode of the second season. I also love how the cells are slowly growing back together, controlling Yumi, and new cells are being introduced to make the story seems more exciting and interesting as well haha. Well with the second season, some parts of the story answers few questions that gave me a second thought of why and how it happened during the last season.

With rivalry comes in the middle with Babi and Woong, most especially with their own cells. From here, in between the two of them, I do love how Yumi grows apart from her past relationships. If I was asked who between the two, I would say Woong was still the best one yet, even if he had this "little childish act". But he's really good for Yumi, but seems due to their misunderstandings, Yumi decided to take a break, and where the miscommunications starts to happen, until it was a a little sad heartbreak for Yumi. On the other hand, I do love Babi, but not as same as Woong. Babi was a softie, king, generous, loyal to Yumi, but then he's too good for her. Because of his heartfelt feeling all of a sudden unexpected feelings he do feel other than to Yumi, I think its also one of the weaknesses he encountered. Not to be so biased, but in the second season, I do discovered and wondered at the same time the weaknesses that both Woong and Babi has. There, I do understand well the reasons of why Yumi ended her relationship. It also for the benefit that she could get to be away from her temptations and living no regrets at the end... :') With that, all of her struggles and pains she discovered in the middle and at the end, it grows inside of her differently. Learning from her past relationships of where she was also missing.

Overall with this part, I do love how it turns out, but still we deserve a season 3 since we need Yumi to be more happier with satisfaction :) And after all, Yumi wanted a life where she is satisfied with what's happening. Finding the happiness she deserves to feel... <3

Well well well, I would definitely thank the cast who did so well with the first and second season, but I do really fell in love each one of them also where they also find their own path of life not only to Yumi and the main characters, but as well as the characters who help cope Yumi's life ending to be a satisfaction <3

I'll go first with Kim Go Eun as Yumi. She has so much potential and she improved a lot from Little Women, Goblin, The King, Eternal Monarch (The first drama that I discovered her) and Cheese on the Trap!! Now I watched all of her projects, she deserve the recognition she has, and now since Little Women, I praised her a lot from her acting!! She's one of my lowkey favorite hallyu actress in kdrama!!
Gosh ever since the first season, I do love her and felt her feelings of emotions a lot. I do really love Yumi till the second season because in there its visible that she's growing a lot. I love her development throughout both the first and second season.

Next, Ahn Bo Hyun as Woong. Ahn Bo Hyun also improved a lot, after watching some of his roles from the very first kdrama appearance that I watched before, Itaewon Class and some of the dramas I continued watching because of his potentials as well! Such as Her Private Life, Descendants of the Sun and lastly, he's well known role from My Name!! With his character, not to be so biased, I'll start with him as I get so much feels when Woong and Yumi are together on screen!! I do get the feels haha :')) He's really paired up with Yumi as they really meant for each other. Woong's character development from season 1 till season 2 is still present. but the fact where his childness is still there haha :')) Woong is also one of my favorite characters, he shines so well for Yumi and very supportive and caring at the same time. No matter the relationship he had with Yumi, I do really ship Woomi :'))

Lastly, Park Jin Young as Yoo Babi. Park Jin Young's role is also not new to me since I also saw him for the first time from his role He is Psychometric. He was also did well with this drama. I appreciated his acting skills, but I do hate his character after all what Yumi feels. I do love the ending between them, ending with less to no regrets... <3 I do love Babi *again and again* but I was hoping he would change, but not that well... But overall, I do love Park Jin Young, but not the character much :') hehe.

And to the other casts, I thanked them because they made first and second season more interesting and how they made me happy and laughing all the way. It was a fun ride, with them and how the story was really well written <33 Rooting for the casts as well!!






To end this note, overall it was really a good watch for season 1 and 2. I do love how it ends pretty well... and speculations arise since the ending feels like there is a season 3 and hoping that it would be true tho ;') But still this drama is very recommended to those who wants to watch it <33
Great for binge-watch, a time killer, great for beginners and very recommended, love how the writer made the well made <33

And that's end of my note, I actually took almost 1 hour to type this note haha since I had good feelings with this drama having 2 seasons <33 really loving the drive of emotions I had while watching it. <33 Looking forward to the casts next projects to come!! DESERVE MORE RECOGNITION!!! <333

I love how this concept is not known to some viewers, especially this melodrama series was k-culture type of web drama!! The characters are very admiring especially I fell in love with Yeo one from his role in this web drama :') Now I decided to stan Pentagon haha because of him and Kino as well, just to make this note short. I also find Ji hoo the female lead serves potential as well! I do love the genre of this drama, but it's more of an romance and a little bit of comedy type. But overall a good watch for me <333

phewww what a fun ride!! this second season was giving me more bubbly-positive vibes other than the first season. Plus this was more enhanced, new environment and atmosphere, with new characters that are beyond through the life story of independent Ji Eun ;)) the story, as well as the characters from this drama as well made this short web drama an unforgettable series where each and every character has meaning behind every struggles and challenges in life that we couldn't expect to happen. I also love how this web drama in some endings in their episodes, they give us a tip where we could use it since it would be useful for future purposes and prevent from anything to worsen unexpected circumstances or situations in the future T-T Even if this web drama was short, but still it was too cute and very entertaining at the same time that I even hesitated to watch and give it a try twice and I appreciate myself that I was lucky that I discovered this drama by my own :')) (+ the ending of this drama with a wonderful and heartfelt message to the viewers that gave me tears a bit :') )

The cast and characters of this drama had great chemistry as well!! Character developments and a good impression with the series and the cast!! Kim Si Eun as the "Miss Independent Lee Ji Eun"! since love alarm, she has so much recognition as well! I love her acting here in this series, plus she fits so well with cute and bubbly characters in any kdramas :> as I am looking forward to her next drama series soon! But, I really felt bad and felt pity at the same time to Cha In Ha who was Ha Jun in the drama who passed away last dec. 3 2019... huhuhu he had potential to be recognized :((. The other two that made my heart swoon as well, Kim Seo An as Mina and Kim Do Geon as Min Gyu, wow from friends to lovers, they were a perfect match haha :")

Overall the two seasons were now called as one of my favorite web dramas that gives me happiness throughout the day <33
Good for binge watch and a time kill since it is a web drama series with 10-15 min duration, good for re watching as well, recommended and friendly to beginners <33

lucky to meet this drama and never regretting watching it!! it was healing for me enough to realize my own personal life with this web drama <33

I’m afraid I’ll forget what I should be doing if I start laughing. – Moon Dong Eun

okay, so this would be one of 2023's top tier kdrama ever since the first quarter of the year. Seems the story has not yet ended for dong-eun's revenge, I guess the ending seems to getting clearer and brigher... but at the same time, the grey areas are coming in. With the never-expected plot and based on real-life events especially the school-student's system in sk, i guess this was too brutal for a student to be bullied. And it's not the same as what other wester dramas or movie portrays, but the drama was too realistic that even viewers could say that this was too violent. It's far from fantasy, turns to a deep fact check reality for everyone. So, I'll go with the note, from its cinematography, ost, casts and characters, including the story/plot.

STORY AND/OR PLOT
so the story started to get into when it discovered about how Moon Dong-eun escaped from the pain she has. A student who was the second bystander/victim from a bullying scandal, involving the other student who transferred and went missing. Moon Dong-eun, who started from getting hate and no one cares about what she feels and how she escaped and plans to get revenge to the kids who messed her badly. As she was dreaming to be an architect, but due to her situations with the kids bullying her physically, mentally and emotionally, she worked at a factory at a young age in her late 20's, until she continued studying in college in an late age then turned to be a homeroom teacher of Park Yeon-jin's first daughter. And with that the kids who bullied he,r such as Park Yeon-jin, who married a wealthy man and has a biological daughter and works as a news broadcaster, while Jeon Jae-joon, who was yeo-jin's biological father who owns a luxury business. Lee Sa-ra who was an addict and owns an art-cafe, Choi Hye-jeong who works as a flight attendant and constantly regrets a little of what she did to Dong-eun, Son Myeong-oh who was an ass and the one who harrassed Dong-eun in high school. And lastly, Yeon-jin's husband, Ha Do-Young who slowly gets involved with his wife's case. But then, Dong-eun slowly gets to meet Joo Yeo Jung, a plastic surgery doctor from his mother's big owned hospital, and Kang Hyun-nam, who she discovered to give revenge and asked for justice and needs from Dong-eun from his husband who was an abuser. As the two of them discovered Dong-eun's secrets and situations that she won't ever forget, until the were all together to be with dong-eun and give revenge and justice as one.
Well this was a long note, but the story seems to be very VERY interesting tbh. With the bullies who had their successful careers and dreams, while Moon Dong-eun still suffers inside. I guess her life was pretty tough and she doesn't event believe in faith. What she wants and craves for more justice is the revenge that she would badly want.

CINEMATOGRAPHY AND OST
in this part, I guess i'm neutral with the ost. Nothing to be so special about it but then I like the every ending of the episode, get me hooked with it. The cinematography was better, blending with the atmosphere of each and every scene.

CASTS AND CHARACTERS
So, here I am getting excited to type what I was expecting with the casts. Especially most of them were very new to me. Starting with one of my fav hallyu kdrama star, Song Hye-Kyo. After her divorce controversy with Song Joong-Ki, she really changed so much. From her facial expression and feelings that I couldn't see her smiling so much specifically her role in the glory. She discovered this drama that gives me excitement that I have never expected her to be part of this type of brutal roles. Tbh, she has soooo much potential. The second time I saw her is this drama from the descendants of the sun. Now with her character, Moon Dong-eun was a relatable character that every victims has. As what I have heared, SK has the most cases of bullying that even administrators or teachers doesn't mind about it. Again, I was pretty proud for her and rooting for her next role, she is so unstoppable. Next, Im-Ji Yeon. woahhh she was far from her character, and she fits so well with this role. As she was a villain, I guess she was very lucky to shine with this drama and the first time I saw here with this drama. Her character was so much annoying like I wanna punch her. Not to hate the actress, but she really fits with her role. I love her so much but Park Yeon-jin was heading too far from what she did to Dong-eun. Rooting for her as well! Next up, Lee Do-hyun. From what his roles are from, I guess this one I was pretty neutral with his role. So far, I can't get over to his role from 18 again, but I guess since he doesn't have that time scene much yet, hope he would give most of the time to show the background story of his character, Joo Yeo-Jung, up to the end of the season 1 I wondered why he was joining with Dong-eun except falling in love with her? But yea, also rooting for him! Yom Hye-ran was also on another level, the first time I saw her + her character was very promising, hoping that she would not betray Dong-eun. Kang Hyun Nam, her character was a softie to her. What I mean is that she gives everything Dong-eun wants to give revenge as well as Dong-eun knows her story of being abused by her husband. And with the other casts, I know this part of the note was very long, I really appreciated their roles and characters, way too promising. hoping that there would be a good ending for season 2!

Overall, rating it a 10 out of 10, how I wish that the episodes of season2 would came out faster. The story was way too interesting especially the last episode, hoping that Dong-eun deserve a good ending for her justice.
A good watch, great for time kill, not quite beginner friendly since it was too "violent" and "brutal" :'))
Oh, and even my mom liked this drama haha.

Looking forward to the casts :333

a cute giving butterflies on your stomach web drama, but an open-minded relationship serie :))

I need to watch the other series of love playlist since I think i skippeed 4 series after realizing it while watching in the middle of the drama. I just saw this drama from an instagram post in playlist official account. I'll make this short since this web drama was cute after all, but honestly, nothing quite special for me. I'll give a summary about why I gave this web drama an 8 out of 10. (i guess I recommend the viewers to give it a try ;) )

I like the story, involves different types of relationships, whether friendship or couple relationship in their freshmen year in college (as what the plot says). The story and plot talks or tells us about the hardships and sufferings of having a relationship such as misunderstandings, unconditional or one-sided love, or a fling. Realizations where in fact it has different phases from the characters point of view, with struggles and difficulties in the characters college life. Telling us what is love and a relationship for them, that it also begins to their point of view. I think it has different story, but same vibe to the other characters as well, meaning having different kinds of relationships. And with the ending,

Now i'll talk about the scenes and the ost. Seems like its okay for me, i think I would appreciate more the cinematography and the scenes that made me flutter, and giving so much atmosphere as well!

With the cast, they were so cute as well! especially the female lead and the male lead. The chemistry were so realll and their friendship were too precious even on-screen or off-screen. I should look forward to the casts next projects. I think as what I have noticed, some of them had their very first roles from this project, while few of them appeared in some other dramas. Well hoping they could get a new role as well, especially they would be called as rookies soon enough :))

Overall, good for binge-watch, a time kill as well. and good for beginners that this web drama gives a little butterfly in your stomach.
Looking forward to the casts next drama project!!! kudos to them!!!

a must watch!!! your feelings and emotions will be tested upon the duration of this drama!

this would be a long note even if the drama made me confused a little but giving a bigger impact to my life. but i'll try to explain further. so here I am,

this would be the first healing drama added rpo my favorites that comforts me all the way while binge-watching. Even if I watched this drama during the cold season in early 2023, the Christmas break. I had little expectations from this drama as I told myself saying "just go with the flow", but when watching it till the end, this drama gave so much comfort and healing within my heart and my soul. Need your whole heart felt the way the story wants us to feel. I guess my feelings and emotions has been tested while watching this drama.

The story involves more of describing the grief they were bringing in the main casts. How the handled the pain they carried along their life-journey, and how they had all their trauma, some life-sacrifices from their loved once, and the suffering they got belong. The plot describes the life of how they shaped each other's life's from their own grief, from their sufferings until the regrets and realizations at the end. I was enlightened by the cinematic scenes, with their heartfelt voices and words of comfort, with the rhythm that sways with their conversations and scenes to give impact to the atmosphere it gives. While watching the scenes and moments the characters had, they were touching most of the times, comforting ones, especially their softest hugs so far I've seen in a kdrama, their comforting words to give comfort to each other, the way they give or spent time with the people they were comfortable and loved. It gave so much feels especially I get so much butterflies with their hugging scenes as well :< hoping I could get the relationship the main couple had huhuhu. With the story, the ost bring so much tension to each scenes as well.

The casts and characters, oh well they bring this drama such a masterpiece that everyone needs to know and look forward into. Heartfelt emotions and feelings every time the characters bring upon the screen. The casts seems to be very surprising. I like the cast how the portrayed ever scene they need to act to fit the story as well. I would give so much appreciation to the cast involved because they give so much attention to the story and with this drama. Jung Hae In as Moon Ha Won, and Chae Soo Bin as Han Seo Woo gets me every time I cried like the tears I had was so worth it. Including Lee Ha Na as Moon Soon Ho, Kim Sung Gyu as Kang In Wook and as I'll never forget the two as well, Park Ju Hyun as I unexpectedly saw her and was rooting for her from her other roles, portraying as Kim Ji Soo the first love of Ha Won and Lee Sang Hee as Jun Eun Joo the homestay owner. These casts were well combined and very entertaining as well. Again, I thanked them for choosing this drama that they were involved and the casts again were very promising from the start till the end. kudos to them!!

Overall, the soft-felt and heart-healing comfort that gives from this drama was a special one that placed in my heart. I would probably recommend this to someone else that needs comfort and healing from their pains they had been through.
Good for binge watch, great for time kill as well, and I guess I would say a 50-50 recommended for beginners since it needs understanding and focusing more of the feelings the viewer must have in the duration of the drama. And last but not the least, great for re watching as well.

Looking forward to the casts other projects! anticipated and hoping to see them act again soon for their next drama projects! I appreciated them so much!!! <333

There may be a happiness you didn’t realize you had,

but if you have someone who will find it with you, that’s all you need in life - hong dae young

(warning: long note ahead because this drama was too good to have more explanations!!!)

okay, so why did i decided to watch this drama even if it has been 2 years alreadyy??? Gosh, this drama was such a masterpiece to begin with. The tears fell from my cheeks were worth it because of how this drama was so touching. I think this note would be i think messed up abit and not quite organized, because I have tons to say about this drama. And after I watched all the episodes and now I decided that this would be another comforting drama I'll watch again soon, and turns to be added to my favorite kdrama list I had.

So I'll go first to the detail of how I discovered this drama. Last year, 2022, I was having a little confusion with my choice whether i should watch this drama or not. I already added it on my watchlist until I get to watch it during the christmas break. it was a great timing because I was craving for so much comfort, especially the genre for this drama is life, comedy, and romance (which is these are one of my fav genres and where I find to get more entertained as well).

Let's get to the story. Since it combines fantasy, romance and comedy, I was expecting to be even more entertaining. Even the plot was very interesting. I never get to expect how detailed the messages expressing from the story as well. I love how it turned out. There were tons of reflecting stories and life-decisions that the characters has, with some unexpected short-comings that fits at the right moment. In conclusion, the plot for me was so perfect. I really thought it was like a random story came from what this drama tells about, but it was really surprising when the story comes to the end. Realizing that life has so many possible things to happen, whether it has something you need to make is as our expectations, or unexpected things that we were blind to look forward into. But except how Hong Dae-young turned to be in his early 20's or back in his high school days. And in the last few episodes of the drama, how I wish when I have my own family, I would felt the things that Dae-young and da-jung had with their own family.

To the casts, I appreciate all their efforts and how the give so much effort to give all their best to express the characters they were portraying as. Just at the beginning of the drama, seems like all, again all of them deserve so much recognition. From the main cast, but I would also not forgot to mention the supporting casts as they did so well from this drama. At the beginning until the end of the drama, I really love their resemblances especially to Hong dae-young and Jung da-jung in their early 20's until their late 30's. I would like to mention the actors and actresses who make this drama so special, Kim Ha-neul and Yoon Sang-Hyun, both of them I had my first time to see their roles from this drama. And at the end, they made me think of looking forward to watch their other projects as well. They made their roles from this series so special. To other casts that I get to know them from their other roles from the dramas I've watched, Lee Do Hyun, Han So-Eun, Roh Jeong-eui, Ryeoun, Wi Ha-Joon, Choi Bo-min, and Hwang In-youp. These casts mention were giving me so much feels and I get to love how the express their hardwork and giving this drama in a special way that I get to watch it and gosh their visuals gave me so much feels as well! HUHUHU they were so good at this drama!!!

Overall, again and again, I would like to thank these casts who did so well in this masterpiece that now I decided to watch it again, and I was proud of myself that I get to rethink all over again and giving myself a chance to watch this drama again. Love the plot, like everything the drama has in between. This was so perfect. I have nothing to say at this point, because I think everything mentioned in this note would be something I'll read again to convince myself watching this comforting drama.

Very recommended, beginner friendly as well. Great for time kill, and would be very rewatchable. <333
Thanks to this drama, and to the casts involved in this drama, wherever you guys are at the moment, hope you shined more because they deserve so much recognition!!! this is it. byeee!

“I must live. I will survive no matter what and find the answer.” – Jin Do Jun.

to make this note short, the beginning and the middle part of the story seems very interesting. But the latter part of the story seems to be off guard. should I say it was kinda rushed? i think some would also say that. But what I liked is how the connection of the soonyang's former chairman, yang cheol and his youngest grandson who would be be the next chairman of soonyang, do joon. I think what it makes me get interest in watching this drama is because song joong ki was part of this drama. The plot was very promising, with time lamps or fantasy-like with politics. Some parts of the drama made me confused since I don't really get interested of watching political kdrama. I get to research terms for me to understand and know, and such.

For the cast, it seems that most of them were surprisingly good enough to portray the characters that they were assigned. Love the connection (again) with some of the main leads, but not interested by the endgame of do joon and min young 20 years before hyun woo incarnated as do joon in the 90's and deeply learned the overall family tree of soonyang motors with the embezzlements and illegal founds made by the grandson of the former chairman of the company. Even if some of the casts were unfamiliar, but few of them are so familiar since I watched them during their 2021 to this year's projects. Like Song Joong Ki, obviously. Including Jo Han Chul which I last saw him from Vincenzo, same as Song Jong Ki's former castmates, park hyuk kwon, park ji hyun, kang gi doong and jo hye hoo as she was known from some other web dramas.

Overall, this drama was pretty interesting from the beginning, except the last episode seems to be too rushed. There were times it was something that I get to learn from this drama.

Recommended, good for binge watch but expect to takes so much time since its pretty long for some episodes. Not beginner friendly I guess. Looking forward to the casts!!! Song Joong Ki, SARANGHAEYOOO!

if you want to give comfort to yourself, watch this drama. expect to skip/fast forward some scenes

This drama would be perfect above all when it does not take so much longer to drag the plot of the story. So i'll make this note short, since what I like is just the beginning and the ending, not the whole plot of the drama. Now I understand why this drama was rated below 7.8 out of 10. I guess a 12-14 episode would be enough for the story to be told.
But the drama was quite a good vibe to watch since it's giving the viewers a positive energy and vibes while watching, with a little heart touching a bit. For me, the plot seems to be so much dragging, like its out of the place. The love triangle must be fixed even better than what the drama shown to us. What I just liked is the jolly vibes, with moral lessons of teamwork, hardships, relationships or specifically, the youth. The casts seems, eh okay but I don't think for me especially Hae yi's attitude seems to be pretty annoying but pretty makes sense to all of the team cheerleading. In a college setup? with her personality? I don't think that's common to see, its rare. Specifically, too much fantasy and does not focus more of reality. Some areas from the drama were not that clear as well, especially when the cheer captain was stabbed, then I never seen such thing that it was rushed and no justice being served, just a response from the university saying that they would focus more to the safety of everyone, like what the???

To make this drama give a chance, I think its really beneficial to some kdrama fans who were beginners. Honestly, I felt that I had this feeling of mine that there is something missing. But the vibe from the story makes me get interested. I appreciate the cast as well in this drama since they worked so hard for this drama to be successful. Not to be biased, but for me this drama deserve high or low rating, I think an 7.5 or 8 out of 10 would be enough.

~ The Cast, hmmm characters well portrayed
~ OST makes you feel the energy the story has
~ the prophecy seems very interesting from the beginning to the end
~ acting was pretty clear, especially Han Ji Hyun gave so much spotlight to her acting skills from crying, acting crazy, and such.

So I would say, good for beginners and recommended if ever you need to freshen up or lighten up your mind and enjoy watching this drama since again it's mostly full of happiness as well.
