Firstly the story is amazing, I give a 9 though instead of a 10 because the stories at the beginning are quite slow but improve as the drama progresses, but I warn anyone watching that there are a lot of heavy topics covered... but these stories really open up your eyes to the struggles that teenagers go through (not all are universal) and the music is great ! One of my favorite OST and it adds an eery tone to the drama.
Also, the cast is outstanding ! In particular Serena Fang who plays Du/Death Girl stands out, I can't believe I haven't seen her in anything else before this drama... she is the perfect death girl giving off a melancholy, mysterious exterior. Aaron Yan is is great to, but I wouldn't say his performance is that strong, Jiro Wang could have done it better and his character isn't as memorable as Xiao Lin and Da Dong where both of these actors give a lot of emotion. Also I couldn't take Wang Zi seriously as the 'bad boy' in the beginning, but other than that, an amazing cast !
Definitely watch this drama ! You'd be crazy to miss it :P

Although at the beginning I found the lead girls acting and mannerisms annoying to the extreme, she started calming down about half way through the drama.
The mother is the character that ended up annoying me the most, Her behaviour and actions were inexplicable. She wasn’t evil or good just strange & indifferent. She changed her views without any epiphanys or learning new facts. The premise of the drama was that the mother wanted to get her 4 single daughters married off. She does absolutely nothing to bring this about & when two of her daughters find prospective bridegrooms she objects to them both. She should have been a character that is sympathetic but I am afraid I just found her odd.
I would have liked more of the story to focus on all the sisters romances rather than focusing on non-existent family feuds & a birth secret storyline which goes absolutely nowhere.
The shining beacon in this drama is Lee Kyu Han, his acting both the excellent comedic turn and dramatic was a joy to watch. He is the reason I kept watching and I would urge anyone to give this drama a go if just for him.

It's one of my favourite ones EVER!!!
It's such a touching story and my favourite version of it, it's my fifth time watching this and i still haven't got bored of it, you can watch it over and over again and love it just as much each time.
The characters are really believable and the actors playing them do an amazing job!
I cannot praise this drama highly enough, if you're even the slightest bit interested in watching this i strongly recommend that you do, i promise you will not regret it!
This drama had me laughing and crying and sometimes both at the same time! It's a roller coaster of emotions and i become so attached to the characters that my emotions rose and fell when theirs did.
So to anyone who wants to watch this, you will definitely fall in love with it! :D

The first episodes were very good and I enjoyed this drama, but then things just started getting too dark for my tastes. I thought the plot was very unique and it did combine elements of almost every genre of dramas, but some of the latter episodes in my opinion were a bit draggy and dark which kind of screwed this drama for me (like the ones with the psycho dude and her step-dad). The ending was pretty good as well, but there were some elements I felt could have used a little more closure (not much really just little details that would have made it better).
Acting was amazing by all parties in the drama, as like someone else metioned most taiwanese dramas lack genuine emotions but this one definately didn't. Chemistry between the main leads was perfect and especially more so in the middle episodes. Music I think, if I remember correctly was fine but nothing exceptional. The rewatch value is low because I just was not a fan of the drama, though I loved the acting, which makes it even stranger that I don't like it. Maybe there was just too much mish moshed in this drama for my taste -I really don't know?

Starting with what was positive about the series, the real bones of What's Up Fox and what makes it so deliciously addictive for the most part is the strength of the characters. Their connections and interactions with one another really are a joy to watch and they really feel like people who have known each other for most of their lives. This is particularly true for our lead pair, Byung Hee and Cheol Su. The fun interactions between these two manage to be adorable in some places, and then sizzle with chemistry in others. However, this chemistry was somewhat dampened by the drama's insistence on reminding the audience regularly of the awful age gap between the couple. This was probably the biggest irritant for me in the series.
One of the major themes of the drama, unsurpisingly, is age-gaps, and the way it was portrayed between Byeong Hee and Cheol Su prevented me from investing fully in the pairing. I have no issue with age-gap relationships at all. In fact, I tend to find them pretty cute; unlikely couples who have overcome the odds. But What's Up Fox fixates on the age difference between the lead couple to an unnecessary degree. We see Cheol Su acting like a petulant child when he can't have Byung Hee the moment he decides he wants her. We see Byung Hee reminiscing to instances of herself taking care of Cheol Su when he was just a kid. We see the somewhat exaggerated outcry from the families of the couple. I get that the drama wants the 'shock factor' by putting the emphasis so firmly on the nine whole years between the main couple. But for me, this just detracted from how much I actually wanted the couple of get together. I found myself thinking that the families were actually right and the whole set-up was just a bit creepy. I wish instead the the drama had taken the more sensible (if less drama-worthy) angle that they are both adults, so why should a few years between them stop them being a couple?
We see age difference as a recurring theme again in the two subplots concerning Byung Hee's mother and her sister. I was worried when it first became apparent that these subplots, almost entirely removed from the main plot, were going to get a fair amount of screentime. I've seen dramas where the sub-plots have almost taken over from the main, but I felt the right balance was struck in What's Up Fox. The sub-plots served to explore various types of age gaps, which added a richness to the drama, as well as providing a break from the main action. I will say, however, that whilst I really enjoyed Byung Hee's sister's side-story, I didn't really engage with that of Byung Hee's mother at all. It felt haphazard and it came too suddenly to a stop. I was left unsure what the writers' had been trying to say with it in the first place and if it had just been there to fill air-time.
Dipping back into the numerous positives of this drama, one of my favourite things about it was its candid approach to relationships. It's a Korean drama that openly discusses sex. It's almost worth watching for that novelty alone. This isn't a drama where the love is a simple, pure one consummated with a chaste peck. It admits that couples have sex and that's normal and basically a good thing. Along this line, I particularly enjoyed Byung Hee's insurmountable ability to imagine and write erotic material whilst herself still being a virgin. It added layers to her characters, whilst also creating a lot of laugh out loud moments.
Overall, I enjoyed What's Up Fox. There were a handful episodes in the middle that I watched back-to-back because I was so addicted. I was so disappointed therefore with the ending. It felt to me that really kicked down everything that had been built up to that point. The relationship between the leads just deteriorated for the sake of an extra spurt of drama on the homestretch, and it made me doubt whether they were really suitable for each other after all and if the age difference actually was too much to conquer. It was a self-defeating move by the writers', and it left me feeling less positive about the drama as a whole. That being said, it's not enough for me to actively discourage people from watching What's Up Fox. For the majority, it's fun, refreshing and enjoyable. There were just a few areas where, for me at least, it let itself down.

Story- The first thing I have to say is it was just too long! If it was like 15-16 eps long it would have been a lot more enjoyable. Even individual episodes feel sooo long. The only thing I liked about it was the romance. I liked that it was straightforward and even though there were outsiders trying to complicate things for the couple their feelings never wavered. With that being said, the actual plot/or lack there was where I had an issue. After episode 10 I kept on having the urge to skip scenes and even episodes but I held on till episode 19. After that, I skipped to the last episode. At least the ending was nice. Really though an office setting is not the way to go unless you manage to make it where actual events are taking place and the audience isn’t just watching people work in an office and having conversations for almost 25 eps.
Acting/Cast- The casting was very good as the leads had good chemistry and the ensemble cast meshed pretty well. When it comes to the acting by the leads, I felt like Roy kind of had to hold Alice Ke’s hand. Alice Ke’s acting was passable but her lack of emotions during important scenes was disappointing. Their were angsty scenes especially towards the end but I just didn’t care because I felt like Shen Xing Ren didn’t care. As for the supporting actors, it was a mix bag meaning some actors overacted, and some good.
Music- I really liked most of the OST. Some songs were upbeat and made the drama fun and some were angsty but memorable.
Rewatch- I just don’t think I have it in me to watch this again.
Overall this only needs to be watched if you’re a Roy Chiu fan and you have a lot of patience.

Acting/Cast: I though that the acting was simply amazing, the way the characters seemed to come to life and make you feel the same pain that they did. Couldn't have asked for better leads in the movie.
Music: Nothing too special, became dramatic in the intense/sad scenes and helped to add effect.
Rewatch Value: Though I know the outcome of the story, I will probably take the time to watch again. It was such a touching movie that stayed with me long past the end of it.
Overall: LOVED THE MOVIE!!! But would only recommend it to someone who enjoys sad movies, or is prepared to cry beforehand. Hope this helped!!

LSG and SMA's chemistry was just amazing and I enjoyed every wacky, romantic, crazy minute between those two. Even though this was a fantasy drama, I really felt the connection between them was real and genuine. I never once felt as if she was being too "clingy" or dependent. I mean, she's a gumiho who's fallen in love, for goodness sake. She isn't human so it was only natural for her to act a little differently than the average human girl. Instead, I found her to be a strong and loving female lead that knew when to stand her ground and also did everything possible for the one she loved.
The acting of all the characters overall was GREAT and I found myself laughing my way through every episode. They were all such lovable characters and I really can't say anything bad about them.
I was also impressed with the OST for this drama. It's one of those OSTs that fits the drama in every single way. It was absolutely perfect. :3
As for the storyline, I found it to be so refreshingly unique. Something I've never really seen before...a love story I've never heard of. So of course, I was intrigued by it from the beginning. And even though there were a couple of confusing moments here and there that prevented me from giving it a 10 overall, I still consider this drama to be one of my favorites and would recommend it to anyone!
Hoi Hoi~ :D

Cuz you're f*ing hot!
Swords, guns, hand to hand! So what if a couple shirts have to get ripped in the process? Sexy but not gratuitous.
The story was really good. Interesting, but not hard to follow. Lots of action and cool fighting/wire work, with a little twist in the middle.
The actresses did a really good job with their characters. Zhao Wei as Chen Ai Quan (or Sue) did a really nice job with the different facets of her character. As the younger sister she struggles with not being point, and wanting to do more.
Shu Qi as Chen Ai Lin (or Lynn)and Karen Mok as Kong Yat-Hung, but did a good job with both the story and the fight scenes.
Overall this is a good chick-flick action movie! Grab some popcorn and enjoy!

The cases were great and so many details were planned to make them solve the locked room mysteries. Often the suspects were obvious, but the way they realized it wasn't.
The music was good, it matched the drama perfectly.
The acting was good, too. There weren't many dramatical or tearful / painful scenes to play, but everyone stayed in character and did a good job.
The story itself was okay. I was more fond of the characters because there wasn't much development in the story, it pretty much stayed the same.
I was completely disappointed by the ending, but it's not going to change my score. I'm hoping for a sequel or special now, though I think it's unlikely.
You should try this drama anyway and give it a chance. ;)

The definition of a good drama for me is a drama who can keep me awake at 3am and seeking for new episodes and not caring about having to work in the morning. And God, I had so many sleepless nights because of TMTETS.
Honestly, writing down how outstanding this drama is is really hard and I'm not sure if I'm able to express it correctly. So I can't talk about how amazing the characters are, how breathtaking the storyline is, how funny and cute it can be (special thumb up for Hyung Sun, who is probably my favorite one :D), how sad and heartbreaking you can be... Watch that drama, it's soo worth it !

The story of this drama was decent, but all the situations were a bit hard to believe, but it isn't that big of a deal.
In the beginning it was rather humorous and simple, and I quite enjoyed it; it was later on when everything got complicated that I started swearing at my computer-screen.
Some things that annoyed me was the lack of apologies from a couple of certain other characters, whose fault it was that Choon-Hyang and Mong-Ryong got found out in the first place. The fighting was a bit over the top and cheesy, but it wasn't that bothering, to be honest. The love-rivals of both Mong-Ryong and Choon-Hyang were the ones that made me the most frustrated; they basically played the roles of homewreckers, trying to part a married couple. I hate that in both real life and in fiction, but I beared with it.
However, I must admit that the characters, or at least Mong-Ryong, matured as the series went on; it was actually quite noticeable, and I enjoyed his character overall. His facial expressions were really animated, and I liked that.
The acting was decent, but at times over the top (although the humorous scenes required this, so I see no problems there). Like I said earlier; I liked the expressive actor that played Mong-Ryong.
I wouldn't really rewatch this drama, just because I wouldn't be able to handle all the manipulation and complications all over again. One time is enough; however, if you do like that kind of stuff, I'd say this drama is for you.
Overall, I give this drama a 6/10.
