Plot overall is WOW! Simply! I love the story line and the concept a lot. It shows exactly how are people behind your back, it was painful to watch too but its true nevertheless.
Acting overall was good, especially Jung Il Won's,Nam Gyu Ri's and Lee Yo Won's. I fell in love with Il Won's and Gyu Ri's characters, their bickering and the friendship was so sweet and funny =3
And the relationship between the characters was ok overall, I guess!!
Music was really good, no doubt about it. Tracks were sooooooo good especially 'There was nothing by Jung Yup, Scarecrow by Jung Il Won and Feneste Che Luciv by Oh Hyun Ran'
In simple words it was one of my most favorite Korean dramas ?????

This show has touched in me in such a profound way. How such a mundane story could make me experience a range of emotions each episode is a magical feat. As the director said, it was "realer than real." The memories I revisited from my past; battles and victories. My own inner struggles I've had to overcome, some I'm still working on. You see how you can get caught up in feeling like you're just living to work and die. However, this show reminds you that what matters is all the in-betweens that make up your life. Those small wins, jokes shared with people who understand you, that feeling you get when you knock one out the park, and more. So many aspects of the show are relatable and almost tangible.
I must admit that I was surprised by a couple of the actors. Im Shi Wan, I had only seen in the little bit of Triangle that I watched and I felt he was a mediocre actor, as was the drama overall. In Misaeng, he's really at the epicenter of the explosion that happened within my mind regarding this show. He absorbs the character Jang Geu Rae like a sponge. As does Lee Sung Min with the character Oh Sang Shik. I'd go back and forth between adoration and frustration toward him, just like you do with people in real life. You could feel him working out conflicts, sense when he was hiding something, and empathize with him making tough decisions. I saw Lee Sung Min in the show Pasta as a goofy restaurant manager and never would've guessed he was capable of manifesting that much depth. It goes to show that material and direction really do make a difference.
I had never seen Lee Kyeong Yeong in anything before, but I just knew his performance was probably the best he's ever done. The character Director Choi was someone you felt you should really dislike, but had a hard time doing so. Lee Kyeong Yeong didn't make him too cool, as he would have seemed cocky. He didn't make him sinister, either, even though we knew he was teeming with ulterior motives. He was a quiet enemy you respected, but still hoped would get their come-uppance at some point.
There's so much more to so many other characters. Even though there were discernible main roles, the supporting roles and minor roles at times seemed like main ones. You cared about everyone to some degree. Just like in a typical workplace. If something were to happen to the woman who sat on the other side of the cubicle wall to Geu Rae, despite her rarely ever saying a word, you'd care. You see her every episode. You know she has a story, you just haven't heard it yet. The show is that engaging.
Misaeng is a truly remarkable series that I'm thankful for being able to have watched. Exceptional writing, casting, acting, screenplay, and overall quality. Best of all, I feel I was able to gain quite a bit from the lessons that were shared.

Park Shi Yen and the writer did an excellent job balancing the strength and vulnerability of Hyeon Myeong Yi. Bae Su Bin was also good as the strange and unusual Jo Eun Cha. Their characters were the most consistent and had the best growth. The other actors were fine also. Little Dan is just too cute.
Side note: Although I don't find No Min Woo to be that great of an actor, he does strip a few times in this. Worth watching those parts. Keke
The music was appropriate.
I will never rewatch this.
This is a good drama. I recommend it.

What seemed to be an intense love story with one of those love triangles that I despise so much turned out to be a lot more complicated. There was a lot of political strife and this drama really portrayed how terrifying the palace could be. I would liken it to a battlefield except in this case, our main lead Nyang had to use her intellect and tactics to beat her opponents. Nyang was one of my favourite characters in this drama. At first I liked her for her strength but it wasn't only that she knew how to fight but she was also a character with a lot of wisdom. In my eyes she wasn't as power hungry as some of the other characters, she was someone that knew how to use her power to help others.
Another character that I admired was Wang Yu, to me he was the perfect king. He was wise, brave and loyal to his country. For me, he and Nyang were really similar in their ideas and beliefs. They also knew how to live for others rather than just for themselves, which really amazed me numerous times in this drama. The fight scenes were epic and there were many of them to enjoy!! This drama really had me on edge many times, when one villain would be eliminated we would get someone even worse and this really frustrated me to no end!! Many of the villains in this drama showed moments of humanity and I couldn't hate them as much as I wanted to, instead I would feel sorry for them. I came to find that not all of these villains were inherently evil but became like this as a result of their greed for power or because of their circumstances.
This drama was really thought provoking, fast paced and exciting. Before I knew it I was on the last episode! All the actors/actresses were perfect in their role. One actor that I am sure to keep my eye on is Jin Yi Han who played TAL TAL. He was a delight to watch throughout the drama and a character that I became more interested in with each episode. He was clever, brave and like Nyang knew the difference between right and wrong. Jin Yi Han will forever be TAL TAL to me XD.
The OSTs in this drama were amazing especially the instrumentals that played in the background during the action and sad scenes. It really made me feel a whole lot more emotional when watching these scenes.
As for rewatching this drama, I may rewatch certain episodes of this drama and possibly rewatch the whole drama when I have started to forget about it. This is a drama that I never want to fully forget, although it is a fictionalised account of Empress Ki there are many important lessons taught in this drama. It was a story of bravery, strength, Identity, greed and of course love. This drama was a long and heartbreaking journey but I shared many amazing moments with the characters and for that I was glad I watched it!

It is a very enjoyable historical drama. It is an idol drama by the way, so do not expect its tragedies, revenge, fighting, etc. are on a legendary level. It is more focused on romance, so if it is viewed seriously, there might be noticeable flaws in the plots, but if you are to keep in mind that it is an idol drama, it would be obvious that it is more serious than the majority of the idol dramas.
It's fun to see the lead girl push the others down with her wits, but it gets repetitive after a while. Whenever she succeeds in something, you'd always know she would fall soon. It is really predictable, but nevertheless entertaining. Even the romance gets predictable, but it is paradise for fans/shippers.
They tried too hard in the ending, but it is not too bad.

Story: a Male band who seemingly fails every time, decides to move to the country and make big bucks by growing cabbage to sell so they can make an album - we follow their 'adventures' as they go from 'city punks' to 'inexperienced & naïve farmers'.
Cast: Lee Min Ki (Lee Hong Ki) the leader of the band, I thought he was really irresponsible throughout most of the drama (I started this drama for him though...) but I didn't finish it for him. Kang Hyuk (Park Min Woo) *anyone else think this guy resembles Jo Sung Mo?* Anyways, he was my Favorite character (and I shipped his 'love-line' :'( ) He was the most 'real' character who didn't over-exaggerate many of his scenes. He was super cute on here, all those adorable faces he'd make were worth watching^^ Whether sad, happy, in love or being cute - he was my bias <3 Han Ki Joon (Kwak Dong Yun) *now I was surprised to find out this guy played the younger version of Kim Hyun Joong on Inspiring Generation - his character on here was SO different from his character on IG* - He was the funniest character - I had a lot of LOL moments with him (I especially loved his "hang-up" scene) hehe ;) Yoo Han Chul (Lee Shi Eon) the character I couldn't stand basically - he was fine when he was serious but he over-acted and honestly his character made me nauseous & really annoyed most of the time >_< Kang Yoon Hee (Lee Ha Nui) I honestly didn't care for her unless she was around Kang Hyuk - *now this may sound harsh* but I don't find her attractive and I hated her voice....(my own personal opinion) If they would have left out any romance with her character I could deal with it but...Park Sang Deuk (Suh Dong Won) I wish he wasn't a part of this drama - he was the most revolting (at first he was fine but somewhere towards the middle I started to skip all his scenes (he basically only did 3 things every time he appeared anyways >_<)...Kim Soon Boon (Oh Young Shil) I loved her character! she made me laugh every time she laughed as she'd run off! LOL (the rest of the cast I won't mention - they were either good or bad or any other kind)
Music: the sound effects were the best - as for music I really only remember Lee Hong Ki's songs...so it's nothing overly special to me...
Re-watch Value: None, It was fine to watch once, but I have no desire to see it again.
*I personally like 'normal' comedy not 'forced' comedy...& I think this drama had a lot of 'forced' comedy in it...

Subete ga F ni Naru was a gem for me this year- it was a compelling watch, and genuinely, every episode had something a little different to offer.
The story was well though out and well paced- if a bit odd at times. The promo photo had me expecting something QUITE different, but it was still a satisfying show to watch, with a romantic plot that was nicely subtle. The relationship between the characters was great, but I felt some of the supporting characters were not well rounded and had very little to offer to the plot at times. I personally think a season two would help sort that out!
The cast played their parts- especially the leads- very well. Moe and Saikawa were a brilliant duo, and I loved their camaraderie. My only issue, is as stated before, some of the cast were under- utilised.
I loved the theme song! It was the only music I really remember, but none of the background music was out of place, so no complaints there.
I doubt I will watch this drama again- at least not for a long time. I am still hoping for a season two to iron out all the niggling questions I still have however! (Much like Hard Nut!)
Overall, it was a great drama. I gave it a nine out of ten because of the loose ending. I still think there should've been at least a bit more to this series- another episode perhaps? It was a nice surprise to me as to how good of a series it was.
I thoroughly recommend Subete ga F ni Naru- its biggest failing is that it ended. :'(

The girl's acting sucks!!
I feel there is no need of the female lead Yoo Kang Mi..
Only the cheif of NPAC Kwon Hyuk Joo does some acting i really like his role..
I dont understand why the male lead only have a grim expression all the time..
though i havent completed the serial yet till 16th episode the story is really very good...
There is no feeling of the urge to watch the next episode as it is little dull because there is no comedy inbetween to relax the mood ...
Overall a good Detective series Can watch for the story.

I loved Lee Sun Gyun so much in this more than that in Coffee Prince. His character was simply superb though he was portrayed as an angry young chef, he has performed so well where i really did not feel irritated but loved the character more. His walking style - filled with attitude has no words to describe WOW !!!!! made me go crazy for him. especially when he punishes the cooks including his pair, was hilarious.
Before watching this series i thought that the lead pair may not get along with each other as Gong Hyo Jin gives me more of a calm and subtle feel - more like a noona/unnie. But she proved me wrong - the chemistry between the leads is simply superb and gives a feeling of a very young and matured love relationship. they have both made fall in for them as a couple too :). Besides his arrogant attitude towards others, his soft love towards Hyo Jin is adorable. Their love bond was quite different from the usual misunderstanding that happens with every other love story.
And also the Owner of La Safera - Alex is simply admirable. he's such a gentle man both in competing with Sun Gyun (Chef) to win Huo Jin's heart and as a supportive friend of Lee Ha Nui (F. Chef).
Choi Jae Hwan or no one else. he's the best for this kitchen assistant role. the scene where chef and him eat lollipops together was cute and pleasant. even guys eat lollipops ??? :) cute !
Last but never the least - No Min Woo (i love this guy). His hairstyle is WOW...!!! have no words to describe but jus to keep admiring it in all his scenes. he so handsome and watta complexion he's got... ;) so glowy... OMG !!!! don't take me wrong, but would definitely say that he was like an eye capturing element/MODEL in the kitchen; no wonder tat Alex's elder sis has a crush on him.
Talking about the plot, make me think how can a kitchen story have so many interesting episodes which were never boring. I really learn't lots of tips in cooking the dishes that they showed. Ain't the quantity of food/pasta served on the plates too less ????
Such a nice ROMEDY :) worth watching it more than once. i'm watching each episode 3 times a week - never got bored ans would never get tired in future too :) though i have watched only 17 episodes, the climax is quite predictable i'm eagerly looking forward to watch it till the end. but i don want this series to get over :(
In short, its worth watching more than once. i would recommend this to everyone who wants to have fun and enjoy the pleasant and strong love bond between lead couple.

I have been led to think by past experiences that the more I watch Asian dramas, the more fastidious I become; it is therefore quite ironic that in this case my better knowledge came out as an incentive to appreciate the drama more, not less.
When I approached Proposal Daisakusen the first time, all my attention was captured by the love story between Kenzo and Rei. I was so anxious for him to do the right thing and say the right words that I overlooked all the rest. But guess what: as odd as it may sound, this drama is all about 'the rest'. Daisakusen in Japanese means 'big strategy', as in organizing a war campaign. View in this light, we could think of Kenzo's time travelling as it were a war where single episodes are the several battles fought. To maintain the analogy, if while watching you put all your energy in trying to win every single battle, you'll end up frustrated, but if you keep the target in mind, i.e. win the war, you may truly appreciate this 'big strategy'. Despite all premises to the contrary, this drama is not so much about Kenzo managing to change Rei's heart as it is a journey of a young man understanding what's truly important in life and establishing clear priorities. It also makes you reflect upon the true meaning of love, whether it were only about declaring it aloud or rather be there when the person you love needs you.
In this sense, I believe this drama to be a lot cleverer than your average romantic comedy. It touches issues like friendship, family, loyalty, generosity and honesty. It takes its time, lingering on what seem little details, but it turns out that changing a small detail can make a huge difference not only in your life, but on the direction the people around you will take as well. The thin thread underlying the whole show is an old friend: carpe diem. Seize the moment and the opportunity, you may not have a second chance. This is a very simple philosophy, but it is so dear to me I firmly believe it cannot be repeated or stressed enough. Don't procrastinate, don't give the people around you for granted, thinking you have all the time in the world to do the right thing, to convey your feeling or to listen to them when they need an ear.
I consider the special as integral part of the drama, so I indirectly include that one in this review. They called it special, but it could just as well be episode 12, so I suggest you watch the special too before rating the show.
The acting is fine. It could have been more intense, but I'm willing to forgive the occasional stone-face because the characters created by the whole cast are truly endearing and hard to forget. They are very natural as a group of friends and as such I ended up imagining them.
The music isn't the strong trait of the drama. It has a lovely instrumental piece and a very old-fashioned song repeated now and again. In the end, I have become quite deaf to both. A little variety wouldn’t have hurt...
I suppose there's no need for me to explain why the re-watch value is so high. If you are ready to put aside Kenzo's eternal hesitation and Rei's insecurity - which by the way are paramount traits of their personality, without which the drama wouldn't have been created - and you fix gaze and mind on the whole picture, you may end up loving it as much as I did on second watching. There's a constellation of little events, many related to the Japanese culture and rituals, that is delicious and heart-warming.
After 7 years, I'm now ready to recommend this drama to everyone.
