I wanted to watch this for a while, but the plot scared me a little. But they got it in the library, so why not stating to watch it.

The storyline is not really told often, but it's pretty good. It's like a what if this actually happens in real life? What would we do in a situation like this? It makes you think & sympathize the characters that were going through. Also you'll want to cheer on the leads to win & you would get to know some of the characters for they were before the game. Also they try to find out who's friend & who's foe. Are they your true friends, or would they kill each other to save themselves? It's one of those movies where you think about a lot of things that the characters go through.

The acting is great. You get symathize with some of the people. It had a lot of emotion & suspense. I was scared who was next & who would push whom's buttons.

The music sets the tone of the story, but it's not something I would listen to over and over.

I won't re-watch this movie becuase I don't usually watch horror or action with gore usually. Even though I like this movie, I wouldn't watch this for a 2nd time.

Overall, I recommend it if you like action, gore(there are some), students fighting for survival, older movies, the actors/actresses or if you like the director of the movie(I think it's on this site if you look up the movie). There a tiny bit of romance, but it's vague & it's not important at all.

I wanted to watch this because of the plot & Eugene. I loved Eugene in Creating Destiny. So I wanted to give this a try.

The plot was what got me into this drama in the first place. It was really slow in the beginning, but it improved as the episodes went by, but it got draggy. I was just screaming at my screen for to have the female & male lead to have some peace. Nobody was leaving them alone. There were some unnecessary sub-plots that it got boring. But I stayed because I wanted to see the leads together after all the obstacles they had to go through.

I thought the female lead didn't have a back bone at first, but she was able to get free of that & I am happy that she got the freedom she deserved in her life. I loved the male lead most of the way through. There were a few moments where I wanted to slap him(at least one point the beginning & the middle). I hated the scend lead & his mother so much that I wanted to go into the screen & kill them myself. That's how much I hated them. I haven't hated a mother figure since Shining Inheritance & Stars Falling from the Sky. I have never full-on hated the 2nd male lead before this drama! I wanted the OTP all the way, even though they have fought, I still wanted the OTP together no matter what. I thought the leads had chemistry & it was what saved the show for me.

The ending theme was great. But other than that, it wasn't was memorable, but some suspenseful bgms fitted in the right spots of the scene.

I won't re-watch this drama ever, because it was a wild roller coaster ride that even though there were moments where I wanted to stop the ride, I couldn't because the writers were giving it to us by the loadful. The point is, it was a long, wild, emotional ride & I don't want to cry all over again because of the female lead going through just because of 2nd male lead, his mother! After I watched the last episode, I just felt so exhausted & yelled FINALLY IT FINSHED!!! But at least they got the happy ending they deserved!

Overall, recommend it to anyone who like long dramas, birth secrets cliche, the actors/actresses & melodramas.

This is the first Lokorn that I watched and actually finished. I got into this because I have seen the original Full House & the 2nd Full House & I got really curious about it.

It follows the original Korean Full House with some changes so it's not be a carbon copy. I think this version is so much better than the original. Even though it has more episodes than the original. It wasn't draggy at all. Even though the plot is unrealistic, it feels realistic to me. It was funny, heart-warming, sweet, & heart-wrenching. I cried a little in this drama. I felt I went on a roller coaster & felt sastified in the end of the drama journey since I started the journey about half way through the series when it was still airing. I love this drama so much is all I am saying.

The actors and actresses are great in their roles. I actually liked Min(I think that was her name) a first couple of episodes, but when she starts trying to get Mike. . . Oh boy. . . she was a big bully that interferes with everyone in her life(the nice way of putting it). I like Guy all the way through, but I love the OTP better though! I actually don't know any of the actors and actresses since this is my first true lokorn, but they did a fantastic job & made the story and their relationship realistic.

The music was okay, but there was one song that played over and over more than once in each episode & it got annoying after a while. But it was cute a first several times i heard it.

I re-watched this 2 times and I still love it. I will re-watch this drama some more too.

Overall, I definitely recommend this drama to anyone who likes the following:

Korean Full House. . .

Comedy. . . .

Romance. . .

Love Cohabitation dramas/movies. . .

Your first time watching a lokorn. . .

Or any fan of Lokorns alike.

You will not regret this drama experience because it's really good. Side note: You might need tissues, , , just in case.

This movie was very funny, cute & somewhat scary. This was the 2nd work that I have seen Lee Min Ki & Son Ye-Jin in.

The story is super cute & super funny. They balence the light-hearted moments with the scary/serious moments well. There so many funny moments.

The characters were super fun to watch including the main lead's sister(I think). The female is just insecure about relationships becuase of her situation, but she starts to grow up and opening up the male lead. They have great chemistry.

The music fitted in with the mood, but it was not something I would listen to over and over again.

I would re-watch this drama because it is that awesome.

Overall, I definitly recommend this drama if you like Master's Sun becauase it has the same feel to it. If you like romantic-comedy, ghosts and the supernatual aspect and/or the actors/actresses, then this movie is for you.

I watched a long time ago. I got this from the library & I said why not. Let's watch this. What I didn't know was that it was 163 episodes. This drama was the longest drama I have ever watched & finished through the end.

I thought the beginning was great. Around the middle was very draggy, very slow. But it was enjoyable. It made me laugh, cry & wanted to punch my tv or laptop out. After watched the dvd I would borrow, I would go to and watch it on my laptop while waiting for the next disk to come. Let me just say that the leads got a happy ending that the deserved after all they went through.

The acting was the best part of the show. Even though this drama was old(2005), the acting was great. I felt for the main female lead so much. She went through so much. There were so much obstacles in her path that I was rooting for her along the way. She grew a back bone along the way as well. The male lead was a typical male lead at first, but he opens up more as he spends time with the female lead & he becomes more likable. There were times where I want to scream in angry with the side characters! I just wanted the female lead to have peace for once.

Music: It was so long ago when I watched so I don't remember the music at all. I remember one of the intermission song that was catchy and the ending one too.

I won't re-watching again. It's 163 episodes. Too long to re-watch.

Overall. I don't recommend this drama if long dramas tend to scare you off. But if you like comedy, melodrama, long dramas & family dramas. Then you might like this one.

This was not my favorite movie. I borrowed it from the library & so why not watch it. I came in not knowing any of the actors.

Story: The plot sounded amazing, but there were some plot holes & got really confused. It about a man who has 49 days after death to find out what happened to his family & who framed him. One woman tries to help him on his quest.

Acting: It was average, it was okay, but not groundbreaking. The lead actor & the little girl stood out acting wise. The female lead was okay.

Music: Fitted the scenes, but none of them were memorable.

Rewatch value?: I won't watch this again. Unless I want to try to understand it.

Why watch: If you are into Chinese legends, then you might enjoy this movie.

But pay attention to the movie carefully & see if you can understand.

This is a great movie. It's really cute & it's worth your time. The acting was good, but could be better. I would rewatch this movie when I want an easy to watch movie.

Story: It's cute, somewhat original, sweet & heart-felt story about a famous idol who ends up in a classical music academy after he hears this girl playing a zither(a takim I think). Funny antics, drama, romance & amazing music ensues.

Acting: The acting was very good, but could be better. They show a lot of emotion, especially when the main lead sang or the students played their instruments. It was still good, I actually cried a little in this movie.

Music: I think this movie has the best ost ever. I think the music is what stand out in this movie, especially it's in a music genre. I felt some of the emotions in the songs that were in the movie(especially the ballad & the instrumental music).

Why watch?: The amazing music & the actors/actresses, if you like easy, heart-felt movies. I would rewatch this movie if I have time.

This is my 10th Taiwanese movie! This movie is definitely in my top 5 best Taiwanese movies of all time. :) Hope you enjoyed my review, & you should watch it when you have the time. You won't regret it.

This drama wasn't that bad. I've never read the manga, so I can't compare the manga to the drama.

This drama is not for everyone. . . Just telling you that now. Do I recommend it? If you like Japanese Comedy or the actors & actresses, then yes. I recommend it.

This is a feel-good drama. The first episode was iffy for me & I didn't get into it right away. This story is weird in a funny way.

The acting was nice. I seen the main girl in Yamada-kun no 7nin to Majo that came out this year & like her. I've only seen the main guy in Hana Kimi Remake & he is better in this drama. Arata is more calmer than Nika is. But it;s opposite & not-so-opposites attract love story. I didn't like Arata at first, but he grew on me. Nika was hard to get use to at first, but she grew on me as well.

The music wasn't memorable, but cute.

I'll rewatch it for the interactions of the cast members.

I kind of like Nika when it comes to her personality, but not to that extent(what & see what I mean). I want to look presentable outside of the house & sometimes just want to watch my dramas/anime/read my books or manga when I'm at home.

Warning: sometime, there will be embarrassing moments in this drama, but it gets better was you watch more of it.
(This is my opinion!)

The was my 3rd Taiwanese drama that I ever watched & this what got me into Mike He, Raine Yang & Kigome Wang. I loved it when I first watched it.

The story was your typically bad boy & nice guy with a twist. But remember, it was made in 2005, so it might of been newer in Taiwan at the time. No spoilers if you haven't seen it. Don't let the plot scare you off, because the leads have great chemisty & you should continue till the end. The plot dragged a little near the end, but this drama is still really good.

The main leads were fleshed out well & I love the male lead's friends in this drama. Love the parents, they are so cute. As I said above, the chemistry is great, the kiss scenes were great & I wanted them to date in real life.I love Mike He's character & how he turns around and becomes good! Rainie play good girl well, but there were moments where I wanted to slap her(near the end). She is pretty strong female lead when she wants to be, has spunk. I hated the 2nd female lead, but turned good as well! I liked that she didn't stay bad. I hated the female friend at first, but she turned good too! Yeah for people turning good!

Music wasn't that memorable but the opening theme was good though.

Overall, i recommend this drama if you like comedy, romance, cohabitation situations, school drama, the actors & actresses & like great chemistry from the OTP! Also remember, don't let the plot scare you off.

I loved this drama. This was an amazing drama.

Story: 9.5/10 because the plot was well-written & the characters were written well. I think it captured what it was like in Korean in the 1930s at the time, because I don't really know Korea history, just knew that it was just very bad during that time.

Acting: 10/10 because this drama what this drama introduced me to Joo Won! He is an amazing actor! He can cry well in my opinion, when he cried, I cried with him! He really shined in this drama. He can be a total (censored)jerk, but he can be very sweet.

Music: 9/10 because the music was amazing! The theme song (the judgement I think it was called) was amazing & epic. Most of the songs were memorable, but not all.

Rewatch value: 8/10 because it was a long drama. There were many sad moments, and very dark moments that can't watch a second time, but I'll watch it again for the character development, and the love story.

Overall, it was a great watch and I don't regret watching this. This is one of the best K-dramas of 2012. You should watch it if you haven't yet.

I have been waiting for the drama for a really long time. For 2 years actually(the trailer was in 2014 & the drama aired in 2015). I was going into it for Danson Tang in a drama again. But I ended up like the main characters as well.

Story: 8/10 because it was very predictable, but it still a lot of fun despite of it. I wished there was more action scenes, because it doesn't have a lot of action despite being a supernatural drama. But the love between the leads actually felt realistic despite the superficial feel the drama has.

Acting: 9/10 because I was enjoying a lot of the characters! Danson Tang as Roy was good. Despite having his voice dubbed in the original version(everyone else's voices were dubbed the Mandarin version), it wasn't annoying like some of the other Hong Kong/China dramas. Wai Michelle was very good of convincing me that Hei Lam was a sweet, nice person to her friends. I'm glad that she is accepting to the supernatural side of people around her. The chemistry between Danson & Michelle was great. I also really liked Yin Terrance as George & the fox goddess(don't know the actress's name or the characters's name right on top of my head). George loves to tease Roy about feeling again. He is very sexy also(let me just say XD) The Fox Goddess was adorable too and fun to watch her do her thing. The second female lead is a mean, cunning & dense character!!! GRRRR!!! Love Hei Lam's friend from school.

Music: 7/10 because I barely remember the music, but remembered that it was good enough to fit the scenes.

Re-watch value: 8/10 because despite the superfical feeling that I get from this drama, it was still very enjoyable. It has some funny moments.

Overall, if you like the supernatural romance(vampires in perticular), the cast or Hong Kong dramas in general, then you should try it.

I had very high hopes for this mini drama because of the plot & the cast. I was not disappointed at all. I wish it was longer, but at the same time, I was satisfied with the ending. I came in to this drama to watch Kim So Hyun & Ji Soo.

Story: 9/10 because the story was inspirational, hopeful & fun despite the heavy topics mentioned in the drama. They balance the happy moments with the heavy moments. I'm glad that there was a hint of romance in this drama, but was not the main plot line. You rarely get romance dramas that don't get a main plot line anymore. The drama was very realistic about pressure & life. The ending will surprise you.

Acting: 10/10 because the acting was amazing. Despite being 3 episode drama, I was very invested with the characters including the moms! I love the chemistry between Cha Shik & his mother. It's rare in drama land where the mother-son combo are very close in a relationship. I also like the dynamic between Yoo Seul & her mother despite not being close because her being a prodigy. I also like that Kim So Hyun has chemistry with not only Ji Soo & Ye Ji Won, but with her second lead co-star Shin Jae Ha as well. The character Yoo Seul is interesting. Despite being introverted, she can be sassy & fun if she lets anyone into her life. There was some good development despite being 3 episodes long and that's rare to pull off.

Music: 9/10 because the classical music choices were very enjoyable to listen to. The fact that I was a violin player and played some piano since elementary school made me relate to the 3 main characters even more.

Re-watch value: 9/10 because despite the heavy topics mentioned in the drama, it was heart-felt & easy to watch.

Overall, it's heavy melodrama with a hopeful message to everyone that you can find your passion and re-kindle your passion no matter the circumstances that life throws at you.

I originally came into this drama for Si Won. I wanted to see how he acted in this drama, since he was still a rookie actor at the time. But I came to love the story & the actors in it. LOVED SI WON IN THIS DRAMA!

Story 8.5/10: Most of the drama was great. But near the end, was kind of unnecessary, but it was still good for the acting & conflict.

Acting 9/10: The acting was great. They all have comedic timing in this & laughed-out-loud so hard on some moments, especially Si Won's moments. I started to like the main leads, because I haven't seen the male lead in anything & I have seen the female lead in My name is Kim Sam Soon & I think she's a great actress. Si Won was amazing in this drama! That's all I have to say without spoiling it.

music 8/10: The music fitted the scenes well. The BGMs were memorable, some songs were not.

I would re-watch this drama if I want a really want to laugh out loud. 8/10

Overall, I recommend this drama if you like comedies & the actors & actresses.

I took me a while to actually finish the drama all the way through because either I didn't have the time or I couldn't go to the next episode because I was too scared to find out what happens next. But don't get me wrong. It's an amazing drama, it's just the issues that the drama presented was making me cry so much that I need to watch something else for a while. I marathon this all the way through finally and it's a beautiful story to tell, but it's for a mature audience.

The story was done really well. I didn't read the whole manga, but I started reading it after a couple of years starting this drama for the first time. So I can't compare the manga & I won't, Since it's this drama's turn to shine and be talked about. It dragged a tiny bit, but it didn't really affect the flow of the story.

The characters were really fleshed out to.me. Barbie Xsu & Vic Zhou had amazing chemistry. Well, they were dating at the time. I think this is Barbie Xsu best role she has gotten, I only watched a few of her works so. . yeah. She potrayed her character very well, to the point where I thought I was see her character, not the actress. I felt her emotions as I was watching her performance. It takes guts to take a role like this(watch this to find out why I say so if you haven't seen it yet). Vic Zhou was amazing as well. I think this is the 2nd best role he played. He's gotten a lot of mature roles, but this was when he was starting out with his mature role image(I think). I felt his anger, sadness, his fear and his love her Barbie's character. I couldn't stand Maghan Lai's character at all, she scared the living crap out of me sometimes in the beginning of the drama. But I'm glad that she didn't stay that way for too long. I could really care for Xie Kai's character, becuase he was overshadowed by the leads & the plot, but he also had less screen time than any of the leads in the drama.

The opening and ending themes were the best in the drama. There were a couple bgms where they set the mood, but it wasn't very memorable.


I the re-watch is low because I have watched it all the way through twice & it was so hard to watch a second time. It took me a while to actually finish this drama from beginning to end because I was so hard to watch some of the parts in the drama.

Overall, I recommmend it if you like mature themes & melodramas. Also if you want to watch how Taiwan takes on melodramas, then this drama is the start for you.

I just finish watching this drama for the second time because I loved it so much.

The story was the best part of the drama. It's really short, but a lot of things happened those 6 episodes. It's about finding your "voice" in the world & it's important that you should have friends that will support you no matter what happens. There are great life lessons in this drama that made me love. But it was also easy to watch.

The acting was good, but it could of been a lot better. I loved Momiji & Gouta the most. They are cute & supportive to their friends. Keito's character development was good, but it could of been better. Same with Koichi's character(it wasn't developed enough). The love story between Koichi & Keito was rushed. That's one of the reasons why I wished there were more episodes because some of the characters were either underdeveloped or wasn't enough character development.

The music was okay, but not memorable. I liked the song that was played in Keito's commerical comeback the most.

I would re-watch this for the interactions with the characters. I friendship aspect & following you dreams aspect of the drama were the best part of the drama besides the plot in general.

Overall, if you love friendship dramas & dramas that send the message "follow your dreams", then you'll like this drama. If you like the manga, then you might be disappointed.
