The final series of the main drama contains the fantasy element as the other two, but it has some mystery as well. The story is okay, but there were some things that bothered me: first of all, the drama condemned it's leading lady as ugly, when she clearly wasn't. The beauty queen was model like, but still the girl wasn't so ugly. Then the romance was odd. I mean, clearly the guy fell for her looks and wanted to date her because of her appearance. So, wasn't the girl bothered that she was lying to him or that he was falling for someone who wasn't her? Other than that, the drama was good and interesting, with the thrill of the guy finding her out keeping it interesting, though the ending was weak, as the story was roughly concluded. So, 5 out of 10.

Even though the producers is a short drama (only twelve episodes!) and most of the story is occupied by the variety shows and the mentions of the celebrities that were currently the talk of the city, the rest of the drama was satisfying enough. The main story is the struggles of a rookie PD who works on a sinking variety show. Now, the romance was so-so, but, thankfully, it developed the way I wanted it to develop ( I can't describe it better as I'll give away too many spoilers). Anyway, the chemistry between the rookie PD and his senior wasn't that good in order for the drama to have a strong romantic vibe. But I did loved the female leads performance, even though the rookie PD was a little awkward and I would have liked for him to have done a better job if possible. IU was okay, but I haven't watched her yet on other dramas so I don't know if she can do better. Another thing that bothered me was the constant mentions on variety shows and celebs. I knew some of them, so I could keep up, but if someone didn't, I think it would have been awkward for him to watch this drama, though it wouldn't effect the main plot or made it difficult to keep up. But, all in all, I did enjoy the multiple stories that overlapped one another and the drama was entertaining enough to keep the interest high till the end. So, 6 out of 10.

A sort drama (only ten to fifteen minutes per episode) staring the boy band EXO and even though someone would expect it to be just a badly covered advertisement for the band and maybe some products as well, it surprisingly isn't. The story is nice and funny as well. Okay, the main thing that bothered me was the girl's face. When she liked a guy or got embarrassed it turned red...well more like hot pink alien like. That was simply too weird and silly. Plus, the locket thing was really silly as well. But you can't expect much from a drama like this one, so you should just overlook those faults and just enjoy the drama. And sure enough, it is a funny drama and it can be watched from a non fan as well as fans (I'm not a fan and I enjoyed it and my friend who's an exo L also liked it so I think it goes both ways...). Plus, the romance was good, with the love triangle nice enough, and the band drama was convincing enough. All in all, a must see for exo fans, an entertaining drama for a quiet afternoon (or two).

If you have watched the anime, you won't find any surprises in this
live action remake. The story is pretty much the same, without the
confusing back and forths. The best thing about this movie, part from
the story, which is very touching and emotional, are the performances.
Sure, there is too much crying, but the actors were great portraying
the characters and their emotions. Especially enjoyed the conclusions
the movie gave on every ones story, as it could have left things as
they were after the final scene. Probably the story was dragging a bit
and there weren't many twists, so it did got a little tiring towards
the middle, but the ending was rewarding. So, 5 out of 10.

The two reasons why I've watched this drama was the story and Xiumin. First, the story: it seemed interesting and that it would have a nice, cute romance. However, the romance part wasn't that good and it never developed. The story was cute and I liked the frienship dynamics that it had. Lastly, there was some depth into it, or potentials to have some more depth, but it never got there.
Now, about Xiumin, he was good and his performance was okay, but he couldn't do better than what he did, as the story didn't help him much.
Overall, a cute drama, with an okay story, fast paced plot and few short-length episodes.

Honestly, the title is a bit odd and rather than creating interest, it might stop you from watching this drama. Which would be a mistake. Sure, the story is very simple and maybe I'm giving it 8 out of 10 because:
1 I love Nam Joon Hyun, he is a really good actor and played in many hit dramas of 2016, like Scarlet heart and Cheese in the trap
2 My favourite theme is school life But, part from those two, this drama has one thing that many others lack; a strong couple. The chemistry between them was amazingly powerful, even though their romance didn't start till probably the tenth episode. But even so, the dynamics were great! Cute and romantic, they were the it couple!! The story is nice too. The performances were nice and the soundtrack was great. One thing that maybe wasn't that good, was that the leading lady supposed to be overweight, or at least not skinny to be able to do weightlifting, but the drama only had her wearing buggy clothes and she not even looked strong enough. But other than that it was a quite enjoyable drama.

I wasn't sure whether I should watch this drama or not. From the plot summery, it seemed like yet another bubbly K drama, with the cute girl getting into all shorts of trouble, but finally getting the boy. But the main plot, along with the ghost's background story, proved to be much more than just a cute romance. There were some funny moments, though the romance wasn't that great, as you didn't know whether to like Na Bong or the ghost, but the whole mystery and the bad-guy-chase really gave something to this drama. Of course it all resolves to Park Bo Young's acting. She can swift from one character to the other with great easiness that you can distinguish the ghost from the real person quickly. The whole cooking theme was a great idea as well, as it gave a nice atmosphere to the drama. So 9 out of 10.

Not Good Enough

Korean Drama '' The Midnight Romance in Hagwon '' is a school romantic melodrama.

The drama is slow paced and feels relaxing and comforting. The cinematography is soothing and the camerawork makes the viewing experience feel like the audience is peeking into the characters' lives.

The start of the drama, moreover, was nice, with the story taking its time to settle in.

However, after a while, nothing really happened. The romance was enjoyable, yes, but wasn't enough to save things, and the school drama wasn't intense enough to peek things up.

On the other hand, the performances were enjoyable by every actor and actress of the cast.

So, overall, three out of ten.

Korean Drama " Little Women " is the story of three sisters, completely different from each other, being drawn into the world of the rich and priviliged.

The drama is more aesthetics and deep dialogues at times, sucrificing its plot for it, but the overall result is intense. The story is complicated, slowly being built up, revealing each characters' real self and motives. The mystery with the rooms and the suicide case were dark and unpredictable and kept things interesting. The romance, on the other hand, was moody and more of an outline in the end.

The performances, in addition, were all great by everyone in the cast.

So, overall, seven out of ten.

Korean Drama 'Sweet Home' has awful CGI, but it makes up with the on-point atmosphere. The settings, the costumes, the music, the performances, everything is and feels perfect, as the group of residence is trying to survive. However, this season felt more like the introduction, as we start to get to know each character and bond with them, without, nevertheless, getting too deep into the mystery of what is happening and why and how to move forward. Still, this season sets strong foundations for those to come.

In addition, everything is well constructed, with enough screen time for each character and each storyline. The pace is also perfect for the action element of the story. Finally, the performances were all quite emotional.

So, overall, 7 out of 10.

" Penshion: Koi wa Momoiro " was okay.

Have finished this one a few weeks ago, but I'm reviewing it now, which allows me to look back and to think about the story. And I honestly can't recall much.

The whole drama was too short and it chopped things up, presenting some of the stories through conversations, starting things out of the blue and finishing up rushly. We didn't get to see character development, or background stories so we can connect and know the characters.

The whole atmosphere, however, was simple, cozy and warm. The performances were okay too.

So, overall, four out of ten for Penshion: Koi wa Momoiro

" Theory of love " had an interesting theme, with the movie references and the Flipped plot.

The story is kind of light, although the main character does go into many tear showers due to his crush. Nevertheless, the friendship of the four college students had nice dynamics and it was entertaining. There were enough comedy reliefs as well. The romance, in addition, was nicely paced and the references from other romantic comedies were making it even more cute. The side characters had their moments as well, as the drama didn't forget about them in order to concentrate on the main couple. The ending, finally, was well managed and it was nice to see how they all succeeded in the future.

So, overall, seven out of ten.

" Catch the ghost " was an okay drama.

What I didn't like was some characters and the romance spin on the story. What I liked was the case, the action scenes and the way they wrapped everything together.

First of all, the main case was interesting. They managed to link everything together and, in the end, the final result was satisfying. The villain had background and it was nice that they didn't make it easy to figure out who the ghost was. The action scenes were pretty well managed too. However, the drama was interesting only at the begining and towards the ending. Thus, the main part was boring at times and didn't provide anything fresh.

Then there were the characters. Though I liked the male lead, who was overall a sweetheart, the female lead was annoying at times. It was clear and understandable that she did what she did to find her sister and solve her case, but she tended to ignore or forget her team and act on her own. The leader of the police team was extra unlikable as well. She was bullying the female lead for childish reasons and she acted unprofessionally and idiotic.

Finally, the romance was just not necessary. Or, at least, it didn't work for me. The love triangle was even worse, as it was hardly there in the first place.

That said, the performances were really good, from everyone in the cast, but especially the leading lady who was amazing as the sister and the subway cop.

So, overall, six out of ten.

What I liked about "You shine in the moonlight" was the couple. The actors had chemistry and they did a perfect job when it came to acting, especially during the most dramatic scenes. They were, overall, convincing and emotional and kept the interest high till the very ending.

However, the movie didn't handle the story very well. Sure, the main plot about two young students falling in love even though one of them is deadly sick, is common, especially in the japanese repertoir. This movie had the strange illness to demonstrate and use as their tool to seperate themselves from the others out their. However, they did not used it at all. They showed some scenes here and there, but didn't elaborate on it. Also, the emotional scenes were a bit blunt.

In the end, the movie is quite forgetable, so five out of ten.
