Music: I liked that the music was instrumental. It added a very upbeat feeling to the scenes.
Cast/Acting: I started watching this show because of Oguri Shun, my favorite Japanese Actor. I had seen him in Crows Zero, a bad ass fighting movie, as well as Hana Yori Dango, where he didn’t get the girl, and was extremely curious as to how he would do as the main love interest in a very funny romantic comedy. He didn’t disappoint.
Neither did Horikita Maki. She did just as good here as she did in her other dramas (Innocent Love, Atashinchi no Danshi). The best, in my opinion, was Ikuta Toma who played Nakatsu. He really fit the role of his character and honestly, he is the most funny out of everyone.

Music: The main theme is one of the best C-pop songs I’ve heard. It’s very catchy. Ella, who played Rui Xi, belongs to the group S.H.E, which sings the song.
Cast/Acting: I can’t blame Ella for having such a sincere and innocent character. I do love her exaggerated facial expressions. I think they added something to the show. Jiro Wang, though, takes the award for being the best actor from this show. He was the only one I truly liked and looked forward to seeing.

Music: Another amazing soundtrack, just like the first movie.
Cast/Acting: I’ve seen Oguri Shun act in several movies and dramas. He does alright in romantic comedies and such. But I truly think he shines the best when he plays a serious character like Genji. Everyone did such an amazing job, there were even parts that made me laugh.

Music: It was enjoyable. Nothing as memorable as the soundtrack to 1 Litre of Tears, but decent none the less.
Cast/Acting: The only, and I mean only, reason that I wanted to try out a violent movie in the first place was because Oguri Shun stars in it (him being my favorite Japanese actor). I wasn’t disappointed. Of course like his role in Hana Kimi and Hana Yori Dango he plays a more silent and serious type and plays it even better than I’ve ever seen. I had no problem believing into his charactor.
In addition to Oguri Shuns brilliant acting, I loved some of the leaders from other gangs. Mostly because, as a girl, a lot of them made great eye candy. Such as Tokio played by Kenta Kiritani, Izaki played by Sousuke Takaoka and Hiromi played by Shunsuke Daito.
Even better than the eye candy were the fight scenes. No lie.

But it’s not only about the drama, the romance was exceptional too. With 25 episodes nothing felt rushed or forced. It all seemed natural. It was fun to see her fall in love with Jun Pyo and stay close with Ji Hoo.
That’s the good thing about 25 episodes, everything is evenly spaced and not forced or rushed. On the bad side it stirs up some impatience and you might find yourself wanting to rush through because it is a very, very long drama. But a really good one.
Music: Being a fan of Kpop, I loved the soundtrack. It includes songs from SHINee and SS501. It was really interesting to hear them, though they felt a bit over played towards the end.
Cast/Acting: The boys of F4 did a wonderful job. They seemed really close, like actual friends instead of actors. Not to mention, they’re all hot. Hye Sun was wonderful. I admit I didn’t like her at first, I thought she wasn’t very pretty. But my opinion changed after the show and after seeing what she looks like girlish instead of tomboyish.

For me it didn’t seem dragged out or as if they added random events just to make it longer. It was a perfect and very funny drama that you’ll love.
Music: Just like Antique Bakery the music here is classical and beautiful. Nothing over done or exaggerated. It all sets the mood perfectly.
Cast/Acting: Everyone was brilliant. Especially Yoon Eun Hye who looked and acted just like a boy. As for the other actors, nothing felt forced, exaggerated or over the top. I have no complaints.
Lee Un, who played Min Yeop, was great. His character was funny and sincere, just like his acting. May he rest in peace.

The story is well thought out, there aren’t any holes or anything that doesn’t make since. Iljimae goes through so much that by the time I watched the 24th episode, I was just glad that it was over. It was hard to watch Iljimae face one tragedy after another. Then he has Wol Hee who lives her life solely for him and totally drives me crazy with her constant whining and crying. I only started to like her character at the end when she finally realizes that he has a greater purpose than to just sit around with her. She even starts giving herself another purpose to live FINALLY. The side stories are cute and give more to the story as well. At least the ending wrapped everything up.
The acting ofJung Il Woo as Iljimae is what makes this drama worth watching. If it weren’t for him, then I probably would have dropped this drama. The other actors are ok, but some of the actors for the side stories just got on my nerves. Kim Min Jong is also awesome as Lieutenant Ja Myeong. He is a really good actor.
The music is nothing special.
If you like historical dramas, then this is definitely on that you should watch.

Maybe I would change my mind in the future, but as of now it failed to keep me hooked.

This movie is very confusing from the start to the end. Sometimes we are alternating between reality and imagination, and it gets hard to keep up especially during the last half an hour. While the pacing is kind of slow, it manages to build a certain amount of curiosity in the viewer because nothing can be predicted about it. While the idea of this film is pure genius, the screenplay isn't nearly as good. It could have turned out a lot better.
Seems like too much was left for the end for the 'shock value'. Both the direction and editing are lousy within the last half an hour and at the same time that is the best part of the movie. Too much happens which is difficult to take in at once and understand it. I had to go back and watch certain scenes to fully confirm that what I understood was true. However, the ending managed to shock me. And I realized how well the things were connected with each other. We are given subtle hints about the ghost and the sisters right from the beginning. I would say it requires a lot of observation to be able to figure out things before the movie ends.
Since it is psychological horror, that element is definitely present in it. While I never got scared watching this film, it managed to surprise me and creep me out. The wardrobe scenes and the younger sister getting her period were both creepy.
Unfortunately, this movie falls short of a few things which don't allow it to be a masterpiece. Still, the overall effort is really good. I initially felt that the movie was overrated, but it is definitely not.
It has a good rewatch value because I think these kinds of movies get better with each watch.

I expected so much more from this show! While the acting and the chemistry between the lead pair is very good, it falls flat on so many levels. The character of Kim Boong Do is funny and different, but Hee Jin is just a pretty girl. However, I am a fan of Yoo In Na so I found her adorable. Even Ji Hyun Woo is pretty impressive as an actor. He carried out both the Joseon era and the modern avatar very well at the same time. So that was probably the best thing about the show.
However, at times it seemed too clumsy. The Joseon settings weren't that impressive and there were so many plotholes in the story. While the last episode was difficult to stand, the episodes between 10-15 were simply brilliant. I was very impressed by the executed sub plots within these episodes. But the last one was simply atrocious. I would like to pretend that it didn't exist. It hardly served any purpose and the way he comes back passed as laughable. The story had set me with soaring expectations with the way it was being written until the very end. See- writing a good story is only successful when the ending is just as good as rest of the show. In this case, the hilarity of the last episode ruins the show for me. I would have rated it much higher if they had ended it just as well as they had set me up for. Also, I feel frustrated that all my questions weren't answered until the end. With the constant time shifts, the writers tried to leave out some things unresolved.
So, its rewatch value is very low. I am probably never going to watch this show again entirely. Only good parts were those between In Na and Hyun Woo because they were so adorable together. But I would recommend it to anyone who enjoys cute romance because this show has plenty of that and it does feel fresh compared to other dramas.

I was very skeptical at first because my grandma bought the DVD without consulting me, the first scene that I saw was when Gong Xi was riding her bike. I thought it looked stupid but as the Drama progressed I liked the was she portrayed the character. I haven't read the manga nor watched the anime yet but I think this Taiwanese live action is good. It's rarely that you get bored with the episodes and it was very comical sort of like Japanese anime. My brothers and sister also laughed so hard because of the crazy antics. Although I'm not a fan of Si Won he became very likeable in this Drama, the character makes the viewers like Si Won or for some to like him more. The sound track is very catchy I find myself humming the opening and closing theme songs and trying to sing in Chinese.
There is something that quite confused me, I think the ending is more of a cliff hanger, it's an ending for a Drama that they plan to make a sequel, you still find yourself wanting more, I'm not disappointed, I just want closure or each character :)

The story isn’t bad once you realize that the whole plot is based on Dr. Jin trying to save the girl. All the rest is just his journey as he tries to achieve his goal. There are so many holes in this time jump story that it becomes ridiculous. So, I say just ignore all of that and enjoy it for what it is. Honestly, Dr. Jin wasn’t my focus in this drama anyway. I spent most of my time concerned with Kyung Tak, which is the son of the “bad guy” in this drama.
Kim Jae Joong plays Kyung Tak to perfection. I felt more deeply for this character than any of the other characters. He stole the show!!! I gave the acting a higher rating based mostly on him. Song Seung Hun is Dr. Jin and he does a good job, but I didn’t really care what happened to his character after a while. They don’t really explain anything anyway. Park Min Young acts well and is as pretty as ever. I liked both of the characters she plays although you only get glimpses of her as Mi Na. Lee Won Jong who plays Joo Pal is in like a ton of dramas and he always does a good job, but seriously…how many dramas can a man do in one year??? It is crazy!!!
The music is fine, but nothing that I remember.
I guess I recommend this drama to people that like historical dramas and medical dramas. I don’t enjoy either, so I’m not sure why I watched this in the first place. LOL However, I am happy because I really enjoyed Jae Joong and look forward to seeing him in more dramas.

For those who know nothing of GTO, GTO is about a thug like man who never completed any further education. He originally wishes to be a school teacher to pick up girls as he notices a man who has a high school lover. He is what most Japanese people would call a Yankee and has a very unique style in teaching his students lessons.
It is also nice to see Yusuke Yamamoto as another comedic role, you will spot him straight away if you were an Ouran fan! (same with Haruna Kawaguchi, its obvious who she plays).

This drama has plenty of plot twists and it will keep you guessing. The actors performances are great and they are cast really well. I kid you not, every time the scary assassin for one of the shows bad guys was there I about had a heart attack. The guy's evil looking behind those Jonas brother bangs.
I also am now searching for the epic action/a fights going to happen music now. It was catchy.
