Ah , i watched up to episode 9 of school 2013 when it first came out and stopped watching it.I watched the ending later on , so when i watched this i didnt have any expectations on the lovestory.Many so far said they didnt like the ending , but i personally liked it because it had a great warm message . Theyre only 18 with dreams , the school series deals with kids with conflicts and theyre ability to realize who they are and still have time to realize who they are because theyre young. i personally thought 16 dragged a little but the last 10 minutes it , i felt pretty content , i would like to say awe. The ost was pretty good , but i barely rewatch dramas , so i put the rewatch value very low. Anyway i loved the message that the story protrayed , i enjoyed this drama.

The story has great potentail and was realy well built until all the mystery started to reslove honestly I was kind of disappointed and the writer focused so much on the love line and kept dragging the love triangle until the last minute it realy affects alots of the chrachter development

The acting and the cast was amzing everyone is a perfect match to the role the actress who played sooyoung was realy amazing it's hard not to hate her Kim Sohyun surprised me she is that good and she's only fifteen it take only one gaze to differentiate between the twin Sungjae did well he made taekwang too lovable joohyuk was decent too.

the ost are realy good it's one of the best especaily reset and return

rewatch value I don't realy rewatch drama unless it was super good it only happened 2 or 3 times before so I shouldn't judge this category

overall it was fun to watch this drama

I'm a huge fan of the original story, so when I saw that there was a drama version of Mirai Nikki, I knew I needed to watch it right away. It took me some time to finish it, not because the drama is long, but because during the first episodes I was kinda disappointed and a little bit bored. I mean, I really, really, really loved everything about the anime and the mangas, so I was hoping to see something like that.

As someone said in a review, too, the story is the same, but different. And even though in the first five episodes I was just watching because I needed to see what they would do with it, after episode six I couldn't stop watching. After watching (and loving) it, I think I can say I like the drama version more. Yeah, I feel kinda bad for saying it, but it's specially because we can identify ourselves with the main characters, more than we could with a psycopath Gasai Yuno (even though I FREAKING LOVE HER) and a boring Amano Yukiteru.

It takes you sometime to fully understand what's really going on, but I've experienced a mental breakdown starting from the second half of the story. I think it was terribly well done and it surpassed my expectations. Actually, when I was starting episode 6, I was thinking about what score I should give to this drama: "Well... I think I can give it the same as Boys Over Flowers... it's entertaining" AND THEN, oh my, I so regretted it.

My main problem with Mirai Nikki, though, was the acting. I mean, they ARE good actors (specially Deus, LIKE, SERIOUSLY), but the emotional and touching scenes would've been more intense if the acting was better. It annoyed me a little bit, yeah, but I don't dislike the drama because of it.
The music is, well, we only have two, three songs? They're great, but after some time it got a little bit repetitive.

All in all, I completely loved it - it may disappoint you if you're a fan of the original manga and anime, but I think I liked it so much because it surprised me. I won't say it's not good just because the story is not that alike to the original - also, I think the drama is less confusing, so that's a plus.
I only had a personal problem with the ending, but that's a pet peeve of mine. Don't mind me, just watch it. :D

I've never seen myself writing a review for a drama before but, after watching 49 days, I felt the need to write one.

Looking at the story first, I gave it a 9 out of 10. The storyline is a unique one which can teach you so many things about life. It's beautiful and i could not have asked for anything more.

The acting and casts were just amazing. I gave it a 10 out of 10 because the actors truly are gifted in acting. They got me crying the very moment they started shedding tears. Hands up for the casting directors, they definitely knew what they were doing.

The music was also embedded into the drama perfectly, i felt like it wasn't overused like some dramas tend to do. It wasn't placed during insignificant moments but was well thought out and planned which added on to the emotional aspect of the drama.

I gave the rewatch value a 10 out of 10 and I don't believe I'm being generous here. It deserves a 10 out of 10. I just finished the drama and I'm already planning to rewatch it with my friend in a couple of weeks. #49DaysMarathon

Overall, this drama got a well deserved 9/10.

First, let me say that I am not a big Lee Min Ho fan nor do I dislike him. I feel neutral about him in every way. So with that said, I thought this drama was somewhat boring, mainly because the main characters weren't very interesting. The side characters were more compelling than the main couple. All the usual things happen that you would expect in this drama without exception, sort of the same recycled chabol vs poor girl situation. For me, it was middling at best, but I've seen a lot of dramas, so maybe if you are new to dramas this might be a fairly good starting point.

'Ex-Girlfriend Club' is a drama I watched when it was airing. When I heard that Song Jihyo would be the female Lead I wanted to watch this Drama so badly. I like her acting skills and loved her in Goong (although she was the 2nd Lead) and in Emergency Couple. So I decided to watch the Drama after the first Episode aired.

Story:
The Plot sounds very interesting. A man who meets his Ex-Girlfriends again, when a company watns to make a movie. The Plot seems to be funny and I was happy whenever the subs came out. Writer Bang mets four different women again and the the twist begin. At first I didn't understand why he make his Ex-Girlfriends in animals, but after a few episodes I realized, why he did it. After tvN announced the cutting I was shocked and asked myself how they would end it.

Acting/Cast:
As I said before I am a huge fan of Song Jihyo since I saw her in Goong aka Princess Hours. In my opinion she played the role of Soojin, a woman who fights for her dreams, very well. The other Actors I didn't know well before I watched them in this Drama. But all of them act very well and did a good job. Byun Yohan played Bang Myungsoo (the webtoon Writer) who was in the middle of his Ex-Girfriends and in the middle of a chaos. The 3 Ex-Grifriends did a good job, too. Especially I liked Ryu Hwayoung who played the Maknae. I didn't know that she could act very well. Do Sangwoo (who played the Director) played a very different role from his previous Role in The Legendary Witches. But I rhink he also did a good Job.

Music:
I like the Music very much. The Music in the beginning of every episode shows the funny plot. So I think it suits the Drama very well.

This Drama is one of these I would watch more than one times. One negative pisont I have to say is the cutting from 16 to 12 Episodes. I think the mistake is that the Drama was cut short because of the viewer ratings v.v. But at the end they ended it to fast v.v. So it was a bit confusing. I am sad, that the Drama has ended because I liked all of it.

The story itself in honestly quite bland and something i've watched too many times in all these korean dramas. Ordinary girl, side friend with the crush on the ordinary girl and a popular/asshole dude that comes in and obviously ends up with the ordinary girl leaving the side friend lonely. The only twist in dream high 2 is that it's based in an arts school
The cast is good i'll say that, but the main characters are a miss, I love JB (If i'm completely honest i started this series with the sole purpose of watching JB) but his character at first was such an asshole i didn't even want to continue, but as time progressed throughout the series you grow some empathy for him.
Hae Seong on the other hand, i find completely irritating as a character, which is weird cause you'd think i'd want the popular guy to end up with the ordinary girl but apparently not! honestly, while all the other characters improved and developed in some way during the series, Hae Seong just, was her usual self-pitying, trouble causing self. I couldn't bare watch JB and Hae Seong together, it might've been the way they were chosen to act but honestly that couple was a miss...
On the other hand I totally despised RiAn at first, i'm guessing many people did at first but her character pushed through. I in some way would understand why she acts the way she does i mean, JB was her young friend, comfort and boyfriend during their training days and supported each other during their hardships, but when an incident happened causing JB to break up with her and wanting to focus on his carer, she was supportive, but then being moved to a school, JB is suddenly throwing away all his hard work for an ordinary girl... I don't blame her I would probably act the same way as RiAn too.
In regards to the other cast Jin Yu Jin is a favourite character and always will be, In every drama there is always a side couple that everyone enjoys, and for me this drama's side couple didn't disappoint, I liked them more than the main couple actually! Lee Seul and Jr. really suit each other well, and aren't irritating to watch!
I'll admit the music here was great! i enjoyed the 'B song' and 'When i can't sing'. Watching a preforming arts based drama you'd expect good music and i wasn't disappointed.
Overall a 6.5-7/10! It's a drama that really caters to k-pop fans... If you're looking for a really amazing story this probably isn't the right drama. Lastly all i have to say is, G MINOOOOOOOOR

As the synopsis says, it's a drama about four sisters and their romantic pursuits - the caring first sister, the clumsy second, the worldly wise third (who still goes the wrong way in life) and the annoying fourth. And frankly, it leaves me unimpressed. I'd have so much preferred if it was a 20-30 episode series with only one couple - the second sister Yi Wan (Tseng Joanne) and Xiao Fei (Sia Melvin), or in the worst case two couples. The lesser said about the younger two sisters, the better. It's the antics of Crazy Dog Qin aka Mad Dog King (rofl at the name - and the character justifies it) following the orders of Xiao Fei's mother which keeps the viewers glued, despite the occasional overacting.

The other stories are mere fillers, all following the time-tested formula of a single mother, a marital affair, an unrequited love and so on. After a while, the director seems to have lost track of the individual threads - with so many episodes focusing on particular characters and forgetting about the rest. There are so many unconvincing scenes, like when Xiao Fei says something like,"After we married, it seems like I make you angry so often", and I had to go back searching if I had missed any scenes, coz the only things I remembered were them quarreling a couple of times about watching TV and throwing socks on the floor. I think most of the actors did a good job, just that I didn't find their characters very interesting. Nothing exceptional about the music, but can listen to it a few times.

Rewatch value: 10 for the Crazy Dog and Yi Wan/Xiao Fei story, 5 for the Lian Qing story, 0 for the Xiao Xi story, 2 for the others.

If you like romantic stories, you must watch this for this one pair (you might like the others as well - I didn't). It has pretty much everything - the interesting first encounter, how they come to regard each other, one mom who tries to force them together, another who's opposed initially but comes around in the end, the interesting sidekicks and finally, no romantic triangle/ jealous lovers (there's a small one, but doesn't last long and had a graceful closure).

First off, I would recommend this drama to anyone who loves to laugh. This drama has such a variety of personalities that are always causing trouble and interesting relationships. I found it very funny and interesting. However I feel as if there was a lot of improvements that could be made.

The story line was I think the thing that let it down the most. Outside of the relationship story line, there wasn't a strong enough story line to keep the drama moving, with climaxes and such. I wish they focused on the movie making more, as at times there were episodes with little to nothing about the movie.

However the relationship between Soo Jin and Myeong Soo was a very sweet one. I loved how natural they made it feel. Some dramas can make relationships seem too perfect and easy going. This drama took advantages of relationship struggles and journeys and it really worked in their favor. For their relationship alone I recommend this drama.

Also The 3 ex-girlfriends was such an interesting plot. I really liked the variety of personalities. I think they got actresses that fit the characters of a fox, lion and cat very well. I especially enjoyed Ra Ra. I think she played the role perfectly and I enjoyed how they made her role feel deeper with the love story and the struggles of trying to make it as an actress.

There were a couple of plot holes, such as we never found out about the story of the bear that he was working on and that we never find out about the movies outcome. Both of these could have been bought into the story line with just a little bit less focus on the relationships and more focus on the story, like I said earlier.

I think 12 Episodes was a good length for this drama. I don't think it would have worked out with 16 episodes, even if there was more story.

Watch this drama if you want to laugh, see a genuine relationship and feel happy after every episode :)

I just have to start by saying I loved this drama. I'm saying it in a very biased way. Why? Because it is EXACTLY the type drama I like. It's as if it was custom made just for me. This is a drama only OCN can succeed in making. Overall the same style as TEN. A special team is formed to help in the recovery of missing individuals. If I were to compare it to TEN, I'd say I liked the way the the team was formed there more than here, where we got to know the characters before the team was formed while in M, it felt a bit rushed. Otherwise the idea is similar. The focus is on the human side of the perpetrator and the victim. Many times it's hard to identify who is the real victim, and it's hard to hate anybody. On a more subtle note, we got into the politics of law, and the meaning of justice.

The lead characters were amazing in their roles, and so were the guest appearances in each case. Kim Kang Woo as Gil Su Hyun was such a troubled character. He has a deep darkness, and an extremely cute side. I love that he's no cheesy idealist. He will get blood on his hand, not for the sake of justice, but only to make the world a bit less awful. He's not faultless, as we see his view is not absolute, but he seeks the same satisfying ending I want. His frustration would always reflect mine. Next is Park Hee Soon playing Detective Oh Dae Yeong, who's personality it pretty much the opposite of Su Hyun. He's pretty loud and outgoing, and his life is mostly in the light with a happy family. He got many years of experience making him very perceptive. Seeing his trail of thoughts and the way follows track is engrossing. The two guys have the chemistry and the perfect foil for each other. Rounding up the team is Jo Bo Ah as Jin Seo Jun. Though much younger and beautiful, she did convince me of her being a focused hacker and smart. I enjoyed the sunbae-Maknae feel.

Other interesting characters were those involved in the cases. Though Su Hyun was supposed to be the genius of the show, those perpetrator were the geniuses. The performances were dazzling for a number of cases totally broke my heart.

Other than the cases and character, I like how the theme was forming subtly little by little each episode, until we got to the last episode. I find they quoted it perfectly:

- Currently we are living in a world that's filled with the fruit of injustice
- A History of injustice manipulating justice to kill off justice

I enjoy my mysteries, but since it is embedded so well with such a deep theme about law and justice, it reveals a deeper message that the drama is telling the viewer, leaving us in deep thought about the matter.

I would highly recommend this drama for anyone who enjoyed TEN or OCN dramas, and mysteries in general. There isn't any romance but, there is bromance at a more understated level as well as camaraderie.

This was an enjoyable watch. The story was simple really, and the best thing about this drama is that they kept it simple. I really enjoyed different interactions between characters, how each character eventually became and individual, and more than the romance, I mostly enjoyed the friendship here.

Of course the main attraction of this drama were the characters. For me it was more how they were easy to relate to more than anything.

-Soo Jin is a hardworking girl who wants to produce meaningful movies. To do that she has to accept working on movies she's less enthusiastic about.
-Myung Soo is a webtoon artist who's getting by (though I don't know how he would afford a Burberry blancket :P). He's a positive person, chill and fun to be around.
-Hwa Yeong is a career woman with a crazy side to her that needs to be kept in check.
-Ji Ah is a woman stuck in the image of a classy madame, but yearns for freedom from it.
-Rara gives off the impression of a loose girl who'd anything to reach her dream when in reality she's a sweet person who needed someone to remind her of her value.
-Jo Geon is an artist at heart, with all the negative and positive that comes with it. He's moody, he's unpredictable, he's got a temper, but he's warm, doesn't judge others and reflective.
-Finally, though we didn't see much of Yeong Jae, I found him much more refreshing now that he got rid of that perfectness when it comes to relationships.

I find those are all traits we can relate to, to some degree and I really enjoyed the focus on it. Any fight, breakup or argument came from within, and not from any flimsy external factor, or stupid misunderstanding. The development in the relationships felt natural, and the characters had chemistry. The friendship between the ladies was a delight it reminded me of one of my favourite high school romcom movies "John Tucker Must Die".

I'm not sure if the episode cut was a positive or a negative occurrence. On one hand there was no time to waste on any extra angst, so even annoying characters had to wrap up their act fast, actually making them more likeable. On the other hand, there were some events that felt got wrapped conveniently fast an could benefit some a deeper exploration.

Overall light watch with relatable characters and unique comedic moment,

OMG! I've watched one Japanese drama and this was my first Korean Drama and I fell in love with it on the first episode. It was different than anything I've watched and I found myself screaming at the screen or laughing. Most of the time just crying because this story, this love story with the twist of fate was so beautiful. It made my heart bleed. I'm so tempted to watch it again just for the heck of it and I wish there was fan fiction written about this drama, because it's amazingly good. The characters; especially the younger ones, were completely talented. Everything was spot on and it made me believe that that I was watching something real life take place before my eyes. I wish I could find another drama like it. Or any other drama just as good, so if anyone has a recommendation! let me know!

I really liked this drama! It is original, funny and refreshing. I was kind of looking for something different from the same old k-drama plots: rich cool boy meets poor innocent girl, and there you have it! Min Woo does a great job as Tae-Won, to play a man who doesn't want to grow up and is so pure and innocent.. Tae-Won is really a great character, so adorable and so real! It kind of gives hope, like 'not all guys need to be cool', and that's fine.
I also liked a lot the so-called antagonist, Hye-Mi, she was so nice! The nicest antagonist of k-drama I ever seen and also so cute!
Please understimate this drama, it's great to cheer you up when you're not feeling well and it's not so 'harsh' or complicated as others. It's simple, some may say boring (but I didn't find it boring at all, otherwise I wouldn't have finished it in 3 days), but it's really a sweet and original story. Watch it!
