The synopsis for this movie does not do it justice. I was not prepared for this movie. This movie is light-hearted and deep at the same time. I don't know how they gave us the story this quickly, but it was well done. The acting is great...all the characters were really well played. I was surprised to see Yoo Ah In in this movie...I am watching Fashion King right now and I am glad to know that he can act without making the strange face that he makes in Fashion King. I love Kim Jae Wook and enjoyed his roles in Coffe Prince and Mary Stayed Out All Night. He is totally cute and a great actor...he played the gay adonis character to a tee. It was also great to see Joo Ji Hoon, because I loved him in Goong. I thought he did a great job portraying a disturbed man that is looking for peace. It is my first time to see Choi Ji Ho and I thought he did a great job. This movie is not what I would call a typical Korean movie and I think that is what makes it great. I say watch it!!!

This show had all the makings of a great drama, which I would have easily scored 10. It had a fresh story with interesting situations, which certainly made it different from other Korean dramas I've watched and that made it very appealing for me.

But as good as the story was, there was one thing which bothered me too much to be overlooked: the main character, Na Mi Roo. This woman was not what I imagined for the main lead of this drama. For me, she didn't fit the concept of it at all. She was annoying beyond belief and a few times I wanted to physically hurt her. At times, it also felt like the character wasn't well written. I didn't feel she had much character growth, if any at all. It was like she was meant to be an ordinary and forgettable supporting character and they decided to make her the main one at the very last minute.

So, in one hand we have "loser Mi Roo" and on the other we have Tanya. Now this character was awesome. She was interesting, mysterious, had depth, was funny... In other words, she was everything I had hoped the main character of this drama would be. I also felt she had much more character growth, and was better written, than Mi Roo.

Besides Tanya, all the other characters were also interesting and I actually wanted to know more about them and the reasons behind their actions. The wonderful portrayal of those characters was what kept me watching this drama.

The OST of the drama was good. I already knew some of the songs because they were in English and the opening credits track was very catchy.

And the ending was not common, but not unpredictable since I had a feeling it would end like that.

As much as I loved some of the characters (like 4-D writer Lee, awesome Tanya and cute Kwang Woo) and thought the story was very good, I cannot subject myself to watching Mi Roo for 16 episodes again, so I do not ever plan on re-watching this drama again.

This show is your typical Taiwanese idol drama, with lots of funny parts, unrealistic occurrences and super cute moments. Xiao Ni is a very likeable character, and Yun Qing too! In the first few episodes when they just met, Yun Qing was actually made to run in the streets dressed as a girl! It was hilarious!

Xiaogui did a fairly good job. Michelle Chen was really cute, and her acting was convincing, but like I said, she's every idol drama's innocent, simple-minded and sweet female lead. Although still not the best pairing.

The subplot romance was interesting too. I liked the subplot romance, and I was rooting for the guy Qian Yu didn't end up with, but, oh well. I'm sure DJ will buy you over, like he bought me over in the last episode.

I guess if you watched the drama, you can see that they're trying to put focus on the father-daughter relationship. I think the father-daughter scenes were really touching.

Rewatch- well I'm not a person who really enjoys rewatching shows, unless I really like the actors, or the scenes were that good. I would definitely not rewatch this, because the show is too typical, and their sweet moments, although were sweet, not the best moments out of all the dramas I watched.

Not too bad a show though. :)

1-The reason I watched this : Simply because I watched the anime so I was excited to see the live-action adaptation.

2-Storyline/Plot : For me it was predictable since I already saw the anime; I really liked how the characters came to life in a sweet way (except some characters)
Of course, there were some missing things since the drama is shorter than the anime but it was acceptable overall.

3-Acting/Cast : I've got to admit that I wasn't expecting this cast plus I am not familiar with half of them yet I liked most of them because they grasped their roles perfectly.
Although I can't say that I liked Yamamoto Yusuke's Tamaki because it was overdone in many ways but I have to say this: Kyouya was my best character in the anime so I was anxious to see how he's going to be here : Daito Shunsuke literally dazzled me and made me love his character more. Other characters were really enjoyable to watch too.

4-The music : it was J-rock so it was sort of cool somehow.

5-Rewatch value : Yes, it's rewatchable since there are a lot of moments that deserves the rewatch.

6-The ending : It was cool but since there's a film coming up I don't actually consider it as an "end" yet.

7-Overall : I had fun while watching this, I felt like seeing the anime all over again only a little faster. There were too many hilarious moments and chaacters in here.

P.S: If you already seen the anime then you would enjoy this.

1-The reason i watched this : yes, I watched it because of Matsumoto Jun, I wouldn't even gave it a try if it was another lead male.

2-Storyline/Cast : The main story here was about the love relationship between a single old mother and a second generation young actor; there were age problems, his failing career, family, friends.
I would've liked it better if they focused more on his acting career as much as they focused on family problems.
In general, the story was acceptable (considering the fact that I dislike old woman-young man relationships).

3-Acting/Cast : Like I said earlier it's Matsumoto Jun is the main reason that made this drama watchable. On the other hand, I really respect Takeuchi Yuko as an actress (I believe she's one of the greatest Japanese actors) but here there wasn't much chemistry between her and Jun here although I liked her character portrayal.
The believable acting is a strength point that counts for this drama.

4-Music : I still remember it and sing it sometimes. I rarely remember any drama's music but "Please Stay whith me" was extremly great.

5-Rewatch value : No it's not rewatchable. If you liked it from the first time you will ruin the story for yourself if you rewatch it.

6-The ending : It was an acceptable ending but it wasn't any special.

7-Overall : Anything Matsumoto Jun touches turns to gold that's what i've been thinking while watching this drama nothing more.

P.S : if you are not Matsumoto Jun's fan then I would really advice you to stay away from this drama.

1-The reason I watched this : At that time I was going through a slump so I randomly picked this one after reading the synopsis and end up watching it somehow.

2-Storyline/Plot : At first, the story started perfectly, I was feeling every second and having great expectations for what will happen next. However, when Lee Seol became a princess things started to fall apart and it felt like the storyline took the wrong turn; it wasn't completely ruined but I loved the beginning more.
There were too many slow moments especially when the triangle took place.

3-Acting/Cast : I always liked Kim Tae Hee as an actress but as a character she wasn't that great. There's Song Seung Hun who's the only reason I finished this drama not because he's a great actor but because he's *insert shallow feelings* but seriously the lead actors had awesome chemistry.
I never liked Park Ye Jin as an actress plus her character here didn't help because the triangle was one of the most weak points of this drama.
There were some interesting characters here and there but overall the acting department wasn't very satisfying.

4-Music : I still remember it until now; it was cool, not too typical not too extravagant.

5-Rewatch value : Maybe there are some people who would like to see this again but in my point of view only the steamy chemistry moments need to be rewatched.

6-The ending : The ending wasn't that special but it's forgettable simply because I loved the last scene (shallow thoughts).

7-Overall : It's not a great drama no matter how much I think about it. The only reason I enjoyed watching this was because of my shallow feelings for Song Seung Hun and the steamy chemistry. Other than that, this is not a must-watch romantic comedy.

Story - 6: While I liked how the story played out, the story alone didn't interest me much. If this didn't have Lee Sun Gyun and Alex Chu as main roles, I probably wouldn't have even given this a second thought.

Acting/Cast -10: This was where the drama was fantastic. The acting was so good, that sometimes the main couple actually had me smiling like an idiot because I was so happy. I've already mentioned that I watched this for LSG and Alex, but some of the smaller roles were the ones that had me hooked.
Choi Jae Hwan as Jung Eun Soo was absolutely perfect. By far one of my favorite characters from any drama I've seen. I can't even imagine someone else taking that role.
As for the other supporting actors, they all had their moments. The Italian chefs had me laughing a lot throughout the show.

Music - 9: The music was the next best part about the show. Whenever an instrumental would come on, I would smile and dance along like an idiot.

Rewatch Value: 7: This isn't higher simply because there were a few characters throughout the show that drove me insane. You know the kind; the ones that have you wishing you could reach through the screen and strangle them (all of those people definitely contributed to me scoring the acting/cast so high too).

Overall 9: While the story didn't interest me, the acting, music, and chemistry between every single actor/character more than made up for it.

Just finished watching this drama and i loved it...this is my first time writing a review so ill try my best...the whole story line was great and very sweet..i liked it because how cute the family and Nino was and also i loved Sakurai Sho smile (*Faint*)
thought i should add a little more since this was kind of vague...had a fan girl moment lol
if you like feel good dramas then this is a great drama for you...its very touching and and deals with friendship and family
the only complaint is how annoying the girl is...but eventually you get over it...there is not really much romance in it...but there are lots of cute and funny moments...and some scenes will even make you tear up....i gave this review 10s because if your into these type of feel good dramas you will love this one

I LOVE THIS DRAMA.

I love the idea of a game, where the whole MIT is involved, and they have to face up to their past. I did guess who was the ultimate mastermind behind the game, but some of the plot twists really surprised me. Guigui's character surprised me too.

I watched the show when it was airing in Taiwan at the same time, so it killed me everytime one episode ended! It's terrible when the case drags to the next episode because the wait, and even if the case has ended, the preview of the next case always left me cursing at the monitor.

Okay, I may be slightly biased, because I'm a fan of Aaron, but this is definitely my favourite Aaron-role:) I have a soft spot for cold characters with sad pasts, and Aaron looks really cute here. Plus, I love the Guilun chemistry, offscreen and onscreen. Cuteness overload! Alien Huang's role as 747 had me burst into laughter- he says the most retarded but cute things. Lu Ting Wei's 187 is a playboy that always leaves a smile on my face. And Guigui is just too cute:) She needs to brush up on her acting though.

The music really built up the tension, especially the last episode! The music was so apt! Not your usual soundtrack, of course, but appropriate for the show.

I've rewatched the show at least 5 times, and a particular episode 10 times because of the Guilun romance;)

Definitely worth watching.

The storyline was cliche, but not a big problem for him, because I don't mind them. The story is really slow moving though, and honestly the first episode didn't leave me dying to continue to watch. I found myself skipping some parts because I was bored.

The relationship between Yang Guang and Ya Xin didn't attract me as much as the friendship between Ya Xin and Geng Fei. I was so touched at the last episode when Ya Xin went to see Geng Fei and forgave him. And as despicable as Geng Fei is, I felt really sorry for him. His love for Angela knows no bounds.

Given that, the cast was good and so was the acting. Wuzun's acting really improved and haha, his chinese too:) Still room for improvement, of course. And the rest of the Fahrenheit guest-starring was a big plus for the show!:) Aaron's as cute as ever

It take me a long time before I started watching this drama but when I started it... I was hooked from episode 1 and finished it straight up to episode 20 in 2 days.... Every episode keeps you hanging and makes you watch the next episode. Dr. Yoon Ji Yoon was acted well and all the other actors were equally great... The 20 episodes were all worth watching and the final episode wraps it all up... If you're into medical and police stories, this is a must watch drama.. though as a warning this is regarding forensics so expect to see lots of dead bodies and autopsies... Overall, this drama is one of the best that I've seen....

This is a warning...episode 15 will emotionaly drain you!!! I had a huge love/hate relationship with this drama and that is why I gave it 10s across the board. I love the story and the conflict, but I hated that they kept calling this beautiful woman fat and old...but ALL the men except Henry wanted to be with her. It is a little flawed.

First the story...it is a well thought out concept. Breakups, first loves, and the story of loving yourself so that others will love you too is so well written and directed.

Acting/Cast...Sun Ah does an amazing job as Sam Soon. I totally love Sam Soon. She is an amazing strong character while maintaining her vulnerability. The reason I watched this drama was Hyun Bin. I think he did a great job playing Jin Hun. He was a complex boy that grew into a steady man. I loved when he poored out his heart to Sam Soon while laying his head on her tummy.

I think all the other actors did an amazing job and the side stories are well done. The relationship between Sam Soon and her sister, Yi Young deserves a mention because the characters are wonderful together. Then of course there is the other eye candy...Henney Daniel and Lee Kyu Han. They did a great job acting too.

The music was great...I loved them using Only Fools Rush In. It is perfect for this movie. "I can't help falling in love with you"

I will rewatch this drama when I decide to start rewatching my favorites.

I think you should all watch this at least once!!! Enjoy!!!

heartwarming movie about owners and pets(separated into 4 different parts, directed by 4 different people)
it reflects the deep relationships that owners can have with their pets; that animals are not just for show but can replace a part that is missing from our lives
the movie makes a contrast between how owners see their pet and how non-owners think about animal... it was interesting to see how the outside word reacted towards the lost animals and the pets in general

as a pet owner myself i could sincerely relate to the stories and could feel the meaning in! it was very well represented through these short movies

the movie is separated into different parts that deals with family bonds, cooping with a loss, poverty and making a new path in life
the characters really fit the stories and the actors did a great job in bringing the story alive

i really recommend to watch this drama... heartwarming... joy that can be found through pets in every day life x)
