A general has to marry a girl, but she runs away and her sister takes her place. He was very furious with her but little by little, after discovering that this girl was his savior when he was a young prisoner he falls in love with her. It's nice to see their relationship grow.
But the convoluted story, all these poisonings and the length of the series (40 episodes) make it a bit tiring.
Above all, I didn't like the last 3-4 episodes because he changes his attitude, teams up with the bad guy, gets divorced and doesn't bat an eyelid at people who died unjustly.
Even if it turns out that he secretly acts on behalf of the empress to set a trap for the villain, the price was high and made his beloved suffer.
All this, however, will give him the opportunity to discover the truth about his father's death and will rehabilitate his family's name. After that he does everything to win her back.

3 no-sibling

Beautiful relationship of these 3 "no-sibling", so different but so close and protective each other.
The meaning of family in this case is a choice of a "protective community" and not blood relationship.
A truly touching drama that made me cry for the difficult situations these abandoned kids found themselves in.
I appreciated how they gave continuity to the daughter's character, who was strong and determined when she was little with a predilection for one brother (the little girl was so cute) and she also had this character trait when she grew up.
I like hear dialect slang with different inflections.
I loved seeing the father who raised 3 children as his own.
I love the cast in generally.

On the contrary, it was a bit fantasy that after 10 years in contemporany come back the mother with a new child (a little sister), the other mother to pay the debt and also an unknown father.
Then the two boys left on the same day but even after 10 years they return on the same day?!
I hated the mother who pointed the finger at her poor son, again and again, even 10 years after abandoning him. Crazy! A toxic person.

PS: Bae Hyeon Seong looks a lot like Park Bo Gum.

4 Japanese actresses and 4 Korean actors will have to undergo 6 different auditions all focused on kissing.
The language is a big obstacle but with the help of the translator they manage pretty well to communicate.
It's a bit of a shame that their eyes seem to be on the phone and communication times are getting longer.
The real problem started when they started to have feelings for each other and have to act out kissing scenes.
Considerations that I made during the broadcast, I thought that women were superior in acting to men.
The 5 observers didn't do much and were also poorly dressed.
Finale, relationships or not, they put them on a plane and send them back to Japan.
3 couples were formed:
-1st, he now seems in love with the second and instead goes back to his ideas and pairs up with the first,
- 2nd couple, I didn't like at all, he didn't even move and waited for her to go to him, then the kiss, no comment, I would have punched him
-3rd couple, he's cute and shy and writes her a letter in Japanese
Did they really maintain their relationship or was it just a show?
I don't know what the experiment was aimed at but it doesn't seem like a great success to me

Poison

The plot fascinated me. This prince has expressly chosen as his bride, against everyone's will, the only woman they don't want.
She came from the future and is a fighter and not the submissive girl that the family expects. The prince loves her temperament so different from the others.
I liked how the prince looks at her with heart eyes and pride and trusts her. Their chemistry increases episode after episode. Nice pairing!
Why are all the competitions between princesses and not prince? Women must have so many skills!
A little boring that all the people want to poison her.
40 episodes were perhaps too many and also all these people spitting blood were definitely too many.
I really liked the ending.

I really liked the character of this charitable, gentle, intelligent and fair prince. Everything he did was for the good of the king and family at the cost of sacrificing his own life .
The character of the doctor's daughter was also great. A strong woman with healthy principles who wants to make up for her father's mistakes.
The flaw of this series... I don't know if many poisons were used frequently in this era but in this series there were daily poisonings and many people, too many, spitting blood from their mouths when they died.
While I particularly appreciated the ending that made me finish with a smile.
Here too the prince carried out his duty as sovereign well, after which he dropped everything and thought about his own happiness. First duty, then pleasure. Good teaching.

Game and romance

For video game players this is the right series. But there's more. I really liked the romantic side of this story. This couple formed in the game and later also in reality.
I loved his protectiveness and attention towards her. His business acumen despite his young age, they always impeccable in dressing and trusting each other... Very nice.
I smiled every time his friends referred to her as "sister-in-law."
I liked her best friend less, too messy and talkative. I couldn't have tolerated it.
Yang Yang is a really nice guy who I've already seen in the "Fireworks of my Heart" series. Perhaps in this series, compared to the other, he had a little too much of a model demeanor which made him a little less natural.

Damn greed

I love protective men. This bodyguard (Rain) is so tough and gentle at the same time. I liked the scenes where the protagonist couple acts together.
In the last two episodes I found things that didn't add up to me and I lowered my rating a little. Examples: The "Chinese" bodyguard was stabbed and the next day he shows up at work like nothing? One shot from this men would have been enough for her to be killed or stopped but she always managed to escape. O Wan Su hears the shot and takes 10 minutes to get to the living room? She cries so much over her husband's murder that she doesn't realize the situation. Then the next day as if nothing had happened. The mother-in-law then forgives her illegitimate son for killing the beloved son to whom she wanted to give everything?
But all in all I recommend watching this series.

Music and love

A famous composer loses his girlfriend in an accident. Full of guilty, he deprives himself of music and he convinces himself that he cannot no more deserve a little happiness.
When he happens to find the needful girlfriend's sister he decided to help her.
In her he sees his beloved again and falls in love with her and her with him.
But the secret of the bond with the deceased sister will be soon discovered and their relationship will be damaged.
A sad atmosphere lingers throughout the series and even more so in the last two episodes.
The touching dog's story is an example.
The end was a bit forced (1 year later... she go away, she come back, she will leave again... and both loves each other?!?)

In this series there are some beautiful scenes and touching moments, a good soundtrack and appreciable acting. I loved the dog, I'm a fan of Kristal (the Heirs, the Players,...) and I discovered Rain the actor.

A romantic story with an exciting dark note. The transition from young girl to "ajumma" is a pretty good new idea. The jealousy of the workaholic lawyer and the cute idol is funny. Her parents and her friend are also great characters.
I looked at it with interest.
In the end, I wondered why she happened to change her personality and what she did to get back to normal.
Looking back, I missed something, as if all the pieces of the puzzle didn't fall into place. The plot could have been better developed (capture of the culprit, cat, couple formed by the friend and the investigator, after 6 months lawyer in Seoul).
NB The topic of job hunting, I think is a real struggle. In this case the poor girl is very competent in everything and yet she doesn't find a job until she's in her fifties.

I wondered what people found about this series to rate it so high. After a few episodes, I've become a bit of a fan of this cast. The time travel thing is a bit of an overused plot, but the story remains cute and unique.

Only one person in this family can hear and speak, the brother and parents are deaf. He loves playing the guitar and making music but feels guilty towards his father who wants him to become a doctor. “Ottokee?” Please the father or follow his dream?
He has a flashback to the past and finds himself in 1995, he meets his young parents and wants to avoid an accident to change the future of his family for the better, but he must be very careful, otherwise there could be big problems, such as the possibility of not being born .

I really liked the guy Ha Eun Gyeol (actor Ryeoun), a great guy between Park Bo Gum and Cha Eun Woo.

Interesting to see sign language. I also appreciated all characters and the beautiful songs.
For those who don't know, the singer of Spine9 is a singer of iKon.

PS: I was wondering what the watermelon was in the title and I discovered that it refers to Frida Kahlo's last painting, called "Viva la Vida" which had watermelons as its subject.

W survival to help gifted young people gain visibility

All these young guys are so cutie and amazing.
Their commitment is commendable and their fragility is endearing.
The challenge of 3rd episodes was to give birth of a performance in only 24 hours. It seems an impossible mission but both 2 teams (A and B) at my personal opinion were great.
The campus was a good occasion to compact the group and create mates.
4th and 5th episodes, formed groups A and B with a particular method. They split in two according to the favorite's ranking, even in a side and odd in the other. Not great performance but a lot of commit.

I like all these survivals that give the chance to have visibility of so many youngs talented people who work really hard to "emerge".

The last episode was a very tough and sad selection.
A total pure TORTURE for those poor boys... which from 16 people takes them to 8, and then once again to 7...
In January 2025 we will see the realization of project they created for them. Surprise.

I knew D.O. mainly as a singer, but he is also a good actor.
The plot leads his character, a champion of justice, to act as a "phenomenon" in an exaggerated way.
He and his team are in danger but always work separately?!?
The big bad boss played his cards face up, it would have been simple to touch a button on the phone and record conversations. So they would have had a thousand evidences.
Why are the fair people so stupid?
This point makes me lower my rating.
The last 2 episodes were honestly the worst two, where I got the most anger.
He knows full well the power of the old bastard and how cruel and unrepentant he can be for his actions.
I wondered why he was so naive as to come up with these brilliant plans where he gets beaten up, people close to him get involved and he is blackmailed, he has the evidence and has it stolen and last but not least, he has to ask for help from that "change flag" of a prosecutor.

All's well that ends well. Fortunately in the end he redeems himself and we understand that he wasn't that stupid.

PS: His team's hacker, Lee Si Eon, had the same role as in the "Player" series.
