I didn't want to watch this movie until now because I was afraid that I wouldn't like it as much as the anime, but I can know say that I was wrong, I did like it, and a lot.

It isn't like the drama at all, not the story, not the general background, not the music and not the cast. It isn't the best movie I've ever seen, but it is really funny and entertaining.

A huge plus for me watching this was that I could watch it with a person who isn't into Asian stuff and he still enjoyed it and liked it a lot, so for me this is a funny cute movie that in the ends turns out romantic and anyone can watch.

It doesn't have stupid humour, it isn't overly dramatic, or overly romantic, so it's like for someone who is just looking for some laughs.

The cast was great, I loved Jang Keun Suk on his role, even though it wasn't the original Momo (he acted a lot cuter than MatsuJun, and took the pet stuff to a whole other level) and Kim Ha Neul portrayed really well a succesful woman.

The music was great, it well perfectly well with the scenes happening, and I'll definitely rewatch this, with some friends soon.

The story of a couple who reunited after their love was denied 400 years ago. When a mummy's is discovered in Choi Hyun Min's home, Kang Hee Sun a medical professor is called in so that she can help identify the mummy. As the story unfolded and unexpected event keep recurring it's discover that the pair were formers lovers in a past life. Soo Hee and Moo Hyun were married but were separated due to unfortunate circumstances when Soo Hee was taken prisoner during a war , she indeed escape, but her husband family did not see things in that light and from a small misunderstanding a bigger tragedy unfolds. I personally thought that the actors in this drama did a really good job portraying each of their roles. It may seemed like a recycled story to some but, I think that the people watching this should actually objectively sit and watch it with fresh eyes. The story was given the right amount of plot holes, so that people are given the opportunity to feels in the missing pieces on their own.

A good movie. This phrase basically sums up the hole review.
Lately I have become interested in Yoo Seung Hoo and that was why I picked this movie. Did not expect too much, but it turned out pretty good.
Blind is a thriller, it's not scary but the thrill makes you watch it to the end. The story is catchy, and does not dissapoint you.The characters are well thought and the actors fulfill their job pretty good as well. I also liked the harmony between two main characters/actors. Another plus is probably the setting and the light.The dark aura of the movie somehow takes you into the plot but does not make you feel depressed. Shame that the music was not good enough to support the acting and the story. If the music would be better, I guess the movie would be more succesfull.
If you would like to watch it again? I guess not.
So why am I recommending it? Well If you are bored of cheesy love stories or blood covered thrillers, this your movie, to pass time.
Basically it is a good movie.

PS: I definitely admired the solutions the Koreans have found for disabled people...Two thumbs up...

Ok... Don't freak out... and don't kill me... but i think... i think i like this version more than the 2007 Japanese one (I don't count the 2011 version... ever... so let's just pretend that it didn't happen, ok?). DON'T KILL ME! It's going to be ok! Everything is gonna be fine... Don't get me wrong, i LOVE the Japanese version... but to me Horikita Maki just couldn't pass as a dude... Ever... and that is not because i have a strange female crush on her (Ok it might be just a little bit, but you've gotta admit...she is ridiculously adorable). Ella on the other hand... if I didn't already know... i would've never guessed that she was a chick. I mean sure she has got some female features, but overall she is very boyish in this drama (and it works for her, because she is still pretty).

The story is actually very good, and very different to the Japanese version, which makes it easier to watch. You don't feel like you are watching the same drama at all, and that is nice because then it is easier not to compare the two. even though it is not a spoiler really i'm stil gonna write this SPOILER!!! SPOILER!!! The ending is shit. which bums it a bit in my book... I know that there was supposed to be like a seaon two or something but still...

The acting: Again, as i said, Ella was a really good choice for the role. A lot of people bash it for being too over exaggerated, and i can kinda see where they come from, but personally i don't mind it at all... i think it kinda adds to the charm of the whole show. and as for the guys acting... let me just get this out of the way... HotHotHotHotHotHotHot!!! oh and their acting is good too, but it's kinda hard to concentrate on... Did i mention that they are really hot??

Music:I LOVED the intro tune... but aside from that... can't remember any other songs... But the intro... So good!

Overall i really liked the show it was cute and funny and all that jazz, but it is very much a chick drama. And if you're like me and you love that sort of thing i would recommend you go check it out... In the very least it is a laugh.

So... This was the first drama i watched so my opinion might be a tiiiiny tiny bit biased but none the less... here i am... giving it a ten.

Story; Soooo the story. Clichéd? Yes. Totally worth it anyway? YES! And i only wrote that in caps because i can't do double lines under words. This was soo cute (though i can't give it a ten... because, even though the story was great, it has been used 7 bajillion times already, but hey i'm not complaining) and the actors were very good at expressing themselves AS the characters, and making them likable even though some of them were total pricks (Yes i am talking to you Jang Geun Seok... Props to you)

Acting: Was the acting good? Yes. Was the acting Superawesometacular? Hmmm... Maybe not completely, but it was really good. Is the actors acting abilities completely overshadowed by the fact that they are amazingly supermegafoxyawesomehot? ... Do i even have to answer that?

Music: Did i weep openly half of the time that dramatic song played (If you've seen the drama you know what i am talking about)? No, but that is only because i am almost incapable of crying, because if I could've cried, i would've cried (

Since there's not a review here yet, I decided I'd help out and write one!
Well, this is one of my favourite Japanese dramas - it has that little bit of everything that makes a drama fantastic - a good storyline, brilliant acting, those handsome boys to gawk at, and that tiny bit of romance doesn't go unnoticed.
I was hooked from the very start, as this drama has a clever little way of hiding important things, so you need to keep on watching to discover the true meaning behind things. There are little twists and turns throughout the plot, some surprising, some devastating.
The plot is so new and interesting, something not usually found in dramas - clones. But not just clones - clones that have to kill one another in order to survive. But it's not some sort of crazy killing spree, there's so much more behind things than just that, trust me.
You will definitely not regret watching this drama, I hope you enjoy it!
Oh, and another little thing I liked is the fact that the episodes are only around 20 minutes long, which was great for me, because they don't drag and are straight to the point, and I love being able to sit down and know I have time to watch 3 episodes instead of just the one.

I can't help but give this movie a rating of 10/10, because it most definitely deserves it!
Definitely being my favourite movie by far - Death Note has a plot like no other, it's so unique and different that you're hooked from the very beginning. The acting throughout the movie is spectacular and Yagami Light and L's characters are so accurate, it seems as if they have been plucked directly out of the manga and thrown onto the big screen.
Immediately after I had finished watching Death Note, I rushed into my sister's room and demanded that she watch it too. I will always recommend this, as I have not yet found anyone who doesn't like this movie.
With a twisting and shocking plot, filled with death gods and murder-solving, you won't be able to take your eyes off the screen!

This was the first drama I ever watched, after having read the manga I was excited to watch this - and it definitely had me hooked from the very first episode!
There is so much humour in this drama that you can't help but smile all the way through - and there are sweet moments that are sure to make you squeal in delight.
Ella acts really well to her part, but Jiro Wang's character was definitely my favourite here, I couldn't resist the heart-wrenching confusion he has to experience through various romance issues in this drama.
Overall, I would recommend that you watch this drama, but perhaps if you haven't watched the Japanese version yet, try this first, as they're really different, and you would probably be a little more critical if you watched this version afterwards.

I usually tend to see the dramas until the end and then form an opinion. I don't like to say i don't like a drama without trying to watch until the end. I also did this time but it was a pain to watch it.
The story was interesting. The description is a lot interesting and make us wanting to watch. Also the cast is good.But I have learnt that sometimes they have the best cast but the drama turns to be a deception. This was not an exception.
It was a really slow drama and kinda childish for me. The effects, the stops of characters to know what they're thinking, the evil shadows coming from her...
I think overall it was a cute drama, good specially for people between 10-16 years old (at least i think so). I think it has a message as well but it got lost somewhere in the middle with the slow rhythm.
If you watched and were like me, we wanted to see Da Lung's transformation quickly, right? But i got disappointed to see the new guy, he was basically like the old Da Lung, just the old looks changed. I thought he'd be more mature and cool but not.
Even, as a Da Lung of 4 years old later, he should have grown up right? Bt he didnt. I mean, if he was educated in a very strict society and didnt know about the world, when he does, 4 years later, he is the same innocent one from before?
I already said it, i didn't like this drama. This turned to be totally appart from my expectations. People told me good stuff about this drama so it disappointed me even more.
I really like taiwanese dramas but this one was too typical. I looked at it and it almost seemed animes to me xD
Anyway, the actors are good and the acting is good. You will like it if u dont like realistic dramas.

Why could I not find my love? The title actually gives you an idea what you should be expecting. If you are looking for a romance that makes you shed tears of happiness or sadness, this is NOT your drama.This drama more likely questions "love" based on three female characters in a realistic way.If you are a female you may find similarities to your life/emotions etc. If you are a male, it may make you understand a little about the other part.
Eventhough it is "realistic", the story still takes you in and is not boring.It is not like it is too exciting or something but somehow it is warm and calm so you just follow it peacefully.
The characters are pretty well thought and the actors all fit in perfectly. I always think the best acting is the one that you don't notice, so you can say everyone even supporting actors did perfect job.As a minus it has to be mentioned that the male characters were a little weak, but the actors somehow filled the void.
The opening theme along the insert songs are matching the concept very good as well.The intro of the drama is also well thought and along with the music it gives you hints about the characters.
To sum up, I do not think I will watch this drama again.Not because I did not like it but because the drama gave me something to think about and I do not think I'll forget it. Well it may not work the same for you though, so just consider this drama as a warm casual life drama, that will not addict you but probably pass your time.

Ninomiya Kazunari shows his outstanding acting skills for another time!

The movie tells a bitter-sweet story which has happend in reality.
It shows that even handicapped persons can fulfill their dreams and can overcome many obstacles.

The story is very deep and you can learn many things like tolerance if you watch it with an open mind.

While watching your feelings will change like a rollercoaster ride, on one side it is sad to see the hardships of beeing handicapped and on the other side you will be happy to see his will to fight for acceptance.

All in all a great movie which shall be watched by every Ninomiya fan who likes deep stories.

This drama is really great. In my opinion, 49 Days is the best drama in 2011. After i watched the first episode it hooked me up and it made me curious how the story went. There is a lot of surprise in this drama which is i never expected before.

The actors and actress have a great chemistry and all of them have a great acting skills and i thought Lee Yo Won is the best among the other casts. Lee Yo Won acted two different characters perfectly and it made me love her more.

49 Days is not all about romance but also about the meaning of life. This Drama teach us how to live your life, how to appreciate every second of your life.
