I remember watching this film in a "Friends night", I wasn't the one who chose it but I appreciated the choice.
2) Storyline/Plot:
Generally speaking,the film's story wasn't original or great but the script writers knew how to get the audience intention.
Positive Points:
*This film is directed to any type of audience since it has the elements that would keep most of viewers attracted.
*Main Genres:
--->Humor: It made this film cool and light plus laughter scenes were so diversified and frequently present especially at the beginning. It's the type of humor that keeps you expecting more, the funny scenes were hilarious especially for those who like comedy because when you don't laugh, you would be smiling.
Even though this genre wasn't present in the middle or near the end but it's considered as highly satisfying.
--->Romance: Since it's a romantic comedy, the romance was fair enough to the film's genre. I wouldn't say it's the most attractive romantic story but it was acceptable enough to consider it as a positive point.
Negative Points:
*I will mention that some situations were badly expressed in a way that would make you think that story lacked something.
*There were some blank moments during the film.
*The story wasn't really that special nor very captivating, it's the humor that gave it charm.
Story: 7/10.
3) Acting/Cast:
*Kang Dong Won:
I am always amazed by this actor's skills, charisma and the way he portrays his roles. Here he was a little different from his other productions but I would say that this film proved his amazing acting skils since he can adjust to any character.
Speaking about the character, I would say that it has the kind of naive personality but it gave me good laughter moments. I wouldn't judge Choi Hee Cheol deeply because its actions were set by the story so I rather praising Kang Dong Won acting.
*Kim Ha Neul:
I am sort of used to her roles, this actress is predictable somehow. Here, it wasn't any different but her way of expressing the character was appreciated. However, I have to admit that her way in portraying the role was a little weird at first then as the film went on everything was set smoothly.
The character is one of those independent females. Ju Yeongju lies and professional pretens made the character appealing and enjoyable most of the time plus it was really convincing.
*Other cast: most of them were acceptable exept Ju Yeongju friends, they were really annoying to watch. I speacially liked the grandmother, she was really funny because of the line that she always say.
*Relationships:
--->Romance: I wouldn't say there was a great chemistry here but it's all due to the storyline.
--->The leads relationship with the family and the village members: it was really cool to watch; it was sort of heartwarming and great to see how everyone treats each other.
Cast: 7/10
Acting: 8.5/10
4) The ending:
It was predictable yet cool.
Then ending: 7/10
5) My impression (How did it affect me):
*I was giggling with my friends almost most of the time, it was fun.
*There weren't a lot of boring moments plus it was entertaining.
*Is this film memorable : If I will keep any memory of it, that would be because of the funny moments that I had while watching this film.
My impression: 8.5/10
6) Overall:
*If you like romantic comedies then you may want to watch this.
*If you would like to laugh then this is for you.
*If you're looking for an entertaining film to pass time with then watch this.
Overall: 7.5/10.

However, if you acknowledge the above, then you are in for a very interesting experimental movie, directed in a wonderful postmodern manner.
There is nothing happening in the movie, as I said, but actually everything is unraveling in a furiously silent manner. What is important to look for are the many symbols and small gestures that compose the hidden story behind the film: the sudden changes that shot small glimpses of the house bathed in light,on a clear sunny day that overlap with the dark, gloomy, rainy house; the open doors from the bright house, that suggest openness, hope and harmony, yet human activity is completely absent, as opposed with the progressive closure of each door in the inhabited house, on a rain stricken day; the opposed motifs of the dog sculpture she received from her husband early in their relationship, which symbolized stability, loyalty, and the cat that crawled into their house, which suggested a free spirit, unattachment, and reinforced by the fact that the cat was very scared and in the process it hurt him, although he was doing his best to tend to it and the strong scene where she seemed to become a part of the darkness while looking out the window and, while she blended into the dark, the cat suddenly appeared, to only disappear again after the woman came out of the shadow, that suggested that the cat was really an avatar for the woman... oh, I could go on, as the movie is really packed with symbols, but then again, I'll let those that chose to watch it to discover things for themselves.
The acting was great, their expressions were very rich and suggestive, the gestures, the pauses were stellar and gave of the right vibe for this movie. He portrayed the perfect image of an emotionally handicapped individual that was unable to express his true feelings, and she was also great at illustrating the character of a strong woman that also needed someone to comfort and show emotion, but that fell into frustration with the man she still loved and had to seek refuge in another relationship.
All in all, I recommend this movie if you are in the right state of mind to fully enjoy a more complex film that is sure to spike your interest and curiosity.

ACTING/CAST:
Kim Seung Woo was no doubt can carry his part well and charismatic. This is the first time i get to see TOP acting so i dont really know his acting range, but what i can say was, his acting in this movie was tip top!
Kwon Sang Woo was really doing good job as well.
And as per usual, not being biased, but Cha Seung won really can act. From Villain to Comedian... his acting range is really wide. He oozes overflowing charisma.
Strongly recommended movie.

If you´re a person who loves crime, horror, mystery, detective, cyberspace, and slice of real life dramas then this is for you! Ghost is a mix of every elements that a mystery lover will come to love. Daniel Choi, So Ji Sub and Eom Ki Joon´s acting are all top notch. The writing is so good and the twist in this drama will get your mind blowed in awe, so be prepared. Everyone should give this drama a try, I believe you won´t be disappointed :)
Also for everyone who came to love the japanese drama Bloody Monday, try watching this drama. The hacking, the internet-world and the cybertheme will probably draw you in cause we all can relate to it because in this day we all surronded by cybertechnology, smartphones, internet, laptop, socialnetworks and so on.

Story: What I liked about the plot was the strong adherence of romance in the story. The romance was enticing, sweet and pure that I, too fell in love with the couple. The story offers a not-so original premise of time-travelling genre but undeniably there was an interesting twist on it. In my opinion, there's a little comedy on it and it mainly come from the male lead while he was adapting to the modern world, some from the manager of Choi Hee Jin and Kim Boong Do's assistant in the Joseon era, so if you're expecting hilarious scenes here, it's light but barely evident. There was a main plot to follow and because the male lead was smart, the wise tactics he made was quite fascinating and fun to watch. The opposites attract indeed., he's smart, she's not dumb but rather lacked knowledge., (that's according to him, how sweet!),still they come from different eras with different manners and belief that made a great deal on their chemistry. The ending was happy and passionate. Haha.
Acting /Cast: For the chemistry of the couple, hands down, its amazing, one would really thought it was for real ( I'm happy it is, btw). For Ji Hyun Woo, he looked genuine portraying smart scholar In Joseon era and innocent gal in the modern era. As for Yoo in Nah, her acting was good for someone who played main role for the first time. The supporting casts I admit lacks depth on their portrayals except for the King and Yoon Wol, in my opinion. In general, the acting wasn't that perfect, but watchable.
Music: The OST was sweet and pure, a perfect song for the couple's romantic moments.
Rewatch Value: I'm not fond of rewatching, but this is good if you want to rewatch the enchanting moments and great kissing scenes.
Overall: A delightful watch if you want something romantic-- in the very sense of that word; enveloped with a time-travelling twist :)

Story: the time travelling theme is not so original actually.. there's plenty of dramas with this theme. I haven't watched Rooftop Prince, but some people seems to compared these two (and from the synopsis that I read, I think it's kinda similiar).. But the flow of QIHM's story, it really carried me out.. I didn't see anything was dragged (except maybe for the last 2 episodes).. Everything was on the right line.. The story was more likely romantic than comedic (which I loved)..
Acting/Cast: DEFINITELY, drama with the best chemistry within the main lead.. Yoo In Na & Ji Hyun Woo are reaaaaallllyyyy good.. Their chemistry was naturally built, and when I read that they dated for real, I am reaaalllyyy happy.. I think most of you agree, that they looks really good together.. The supporting casts are perfect.. They added plenty of comedy here and there (especially the 2012 line).. LOL..
Music: They didn't released much soundtrack, but all of them are pretty good, especially for building the atmosphere..
Rewatch Value: I usually didn't rewatch my drama, but I think I would-some day in the future-rewatch this again.. And much of you maybe would rewatch this :)
Overall, again, this is one of the best romantic fantasy I've ever watched.. I adore especially the chemistry between the lead.. Their romance also pleasant to watch and makes me goes "Awww...".. One of the best romance of the year :)

The quartet really got the charm to hook you up!
Lee seon joon? (played by Park Mickey Yoochun: JYJ member) smart and disciplined student who was the center of envy of the school president, who found himself fall for another man...Will he stick to his principles? Or will he disclaim principles for love?
Gu Yung Ha? (played by Song Joong Ki) gay or just too GAY(sweet and touchy)... He cherish his best friend Jae Shin so much! He was smart and tacky, and so cool that he was the charm of the this TV series.
Moon Jae Shin? (played by Yu Ah-In) tough rebellous guy with the bare chest flung on screen, :p he was so damn rugged cutie who has pure luck beside him (everytime he terrorizes at night).
Kim Hyun Shik? (played by Park Min Young) the main lead who used his brother's name and pretended to be a boy, due to untended events, she pursued pretending inside sungkyunkwan university that led to that so called 'SUNGKYUNKWAN SCANDAL' with Jae Shin.
I really like Song Joong Ki here, he was oozing with charm and cuteness while Yu Ah-In's smile melts my bone! ayieeeh!
It really had a good start but the end is a disappointment! I am not satisfied with the smooth take of the events on the last episodes. Though it gave cues to what happen to the quartet, it didn't gave anything about how the student president end up with along with the other characters (hmmm.. I guess the episode which he save the gaeseng suggests that he ends up with her..oh well!). I believe many will agree with me about this.
Another thing, the story run so smoothly to the protagonists, nothing heart breaking at all (well, if it really should be lively, we can do nothing about it), the rush in every episodes and the uncomprehensible (i can't understand it!) ending.
Wew!

Ja Myung loved nobody else but Ho Dong, like what she said, he weighs heavy in the scale of her heart, but she chose her people (it's like rather frightening to have one person powerful in your heart).. onthe other hand, he weighs lighter in the scale of La Hee's heart, yet she chose him coz it's the truth, a simple little truth that holds her happiness, so why ignore it?... Oh, how can love built one's hope and dreams yet ruins one's life at the same time,,, there was no happy ending at all, but if dying together (Ja Mung and Ho Dong) with one sword struck between them, for that last embrace, is the happy ending, and so be it.
I hated Ho Dong, but pitied him as well.. in any case, will the ending of the story change if Ja Myung stayed as Puku with Ho Dong, if La Hee didn't loved him so much or Ho Dong only lead an ordinarylife.
''does love needs to be greater than desires?
or desires' much greater than love?...''
''will you fight for your love or choose what is more good for the many?''
In the end, there's only one choice to make... and last chance to be with the same feelings again... until death. I suppose it's a story about fighting and letting go of those feelings, in different consequences... but theirs led to their own destruction.
I have to agree that the ending have disappointed some of it's viewers, especially knowing that the planned episodes were cut due to low ratings and they have to make the story short and the ending revised as usual, yet i can say that they won to make it all heartbreaking.
I think that it has a much better story than QSD, unlike the latter which revolves around the main character.. i liked it how JMG made a bird's eyeview of everything, everyone has it's own story to tell.
Not to mention it's OST's Love Is Not A Crime and By Myself.. Oh so lovely songs, so pensive indeed.

I rather liked City Hunter. The story was interesting, even if it was a bit slow sometimes and a little unbalanced between the action and romance. Lee Min Ho isn't the best actor in the world, but his eye candy-ness definitely makes up for it. All the supporting cast did really well. I especially liked Lee Joon Hyuk as Prosecuter Kim Young Joo. The music was really good. I was on the edge of my seat in a lot of parts, yelling at the screen "No! Don't die!" and such.
So, even if it's not the best drama in the world, it's definitely in my top ten.
