This drama has Jang Geun Suk, Moon Geun Young and Kim Jae Wook! It was supposed to be largely set in Hongdae, the little indy music neighborhood that could! It had a contract relationship set up that sounded deliciously drama inducing.

It started out incredibly cute and promising and then it went so wrong. I am not sure why the writing went downhill faster than a snowball in hell. All I know is that the first few episodes started out and I could not wait for the next one. Then all of a sudden I was watching and thinking; I just want to turn this off, watch repeats of Secret Garden and thinking "Hey, maybe Hyun Bin's sparkly track suits will blind me enough that I can go back and watch MSOAN and start to like it again?"

This could have been so great and it so was not. The acting was good. The leads were super cute. Kim Jae Wook was wasted. Bummer.

I sort of have this grudging appreciation for Rain. Being relatively new to Kdramas you hear about the biggest stars first. I watched Full House and loved it, even though he was kind of a brat in that. But after watching this I just really like him. He is tons of fun and doesn't seem to take himself too seriously - a plus in my book. The story was fun, intense at times and some of his antics made me laugh out loud. There were times when I was a little bored and I feel it could have been done in 16 episodes making the plot a little speedier but overall it was very enjoyable. The baddies were so bad! And Daniel Henney...you're getting better!

From start to finish I loved this Drama. It's funny because I put off watching it thinking the political storyline would bore me. When will I learn that Kim Sun Ah can never bore me? What I liked about this drama was foremost the chemistry between the two leads but the way the storyline developed was so evenly paced. The characters and the romance built along with the storyline in this really believable way. I found it interesting how much I came to love Jo Guk even though he was flawed and not at all a perfect cookie cutter leading man. Whoever wrote and directed this drama they deserve some applause. Very well done! Jo Guk and Mi Rae rock.

So much badassery in this show it was amazing. First: Jang Hyuk and the way he played Dae Gil. I love that the lead character was constantly straddling the line between sanity and insanity; redemption and damnation; coldness and having feelings that ran so deep he must try in any way he could to kill them. Well Played Jang Hyuk! Second: The storyline was interesting and detailed. Along with the mix of drama and humor it kept me hooked to the very end. The cinematography, the pacing; the fact they were constantly on the move kept me moving right along with them. Third: The fight scenes were very cool. Usually I do not like a long drawn out fight scene but I found myself thinking a lot of other dramas could take a lesson from the director and the fight choreographers of this show. Well Done! Watch this if you are hesitating!

First, I have to admit that any review I write about a drama when it stars So Ji Sub is probably going to be biased. Just putting that out there. Second, I loved this show. The journey Cho In is 'subjected to' is a fun, intense ride. There are very specific moments in this drama that make it so fun and watchable but I don't/can't spoil them. From episodes 2 all the way to the end it just kind of steam rolls through the story and it took me along with it. There are moments where I was frustrated with some story points but I forgive those for the amazing moments where I sat forward in my seat and went "Ah!". That's why it gets a nine instead of a 10. It has a very sweet romance as well. Plus..So Ji Sub...Pretty!

A Fun Romantic Take on a Dark Era

This show was a mixture of (I write this in order) romance, comedy, and patriotism spirit. The promotional posters might mislead people about the overall feel it'll give you. It wasn't that serious (don't expect serious show with full packed action here), but it wasn't that light either. For me, the combination was just perfect.

The chemistry between both couples were really lovely, the acting were solid from main cast to supporting ones (Han Ji Min acting was the weakest tho). Even the supporting roles added much value to the show. The jazzy swing music really captured the emotion of the scenes and the setting (1930s)'s atmosphere. Very nice! Not to mention the colorful wardrobe. You will either love or hate Wan's exceptional liking in bright-colored clothes, but I guess a woman couldn't possibly hate Cha Song Ju's sense of fashion.

Perhaps its only drawback for me was the slapstick comedy they used here and there, and some cliche story elements.
And I think it's important to note this was my first drama of Kang Ji Hwan. I loved him for his role here, but his later roles felt so so after I watched this. I guess he is kinda trapped to Wan alike roles..

Give it a go~ ;)

Ah Shaolin Soccer, it has a soft spot in my heart.

This movie will make you laugh like no other movie has. I'm not one for rewatching, but i've seen this movie at least 4 times, once even with my dad. It's hillarious



The story line is probably not the best, but it's still fine.



The Cast and the Acting were amazing. Stephen Chow really knows how to act, as do the other cast members.



The music was ok and served its purpose well.



As I mentioned before, i'm not one for rewatching dramas and movies, but this is the one movie i really can rewatch as many times without getting too tired of it.



Overall, i'm giving this a 10 because in my opinion, it's an absolute must watch.
