A lot of people who loved the original anime and manga really do not like this drama. That's completely understandable because you are taking fictional characters and asking actors to portray them in a realistic way. For me though who both loved the anime and manga i also LOVED this Live action adaptation. Yamamoto Yusuke was born to play Tamaki. The actors all brought the 2-D characters to life. I could not pull myself away from a single episode and was so sad when i heard they were cutting it short to 11 episodes. Less then half of original manga is portrayed in the drama because of the amount of episodes and also the length of episodes. Despite that, this was still an amazing show. It's the kind of show that makes you smile from beginning to end. I will continue to rewatched this drama multiples.

Let me start off by saying, anyone who completely dislikes this drama has full and complete rights. It's definitely a hit-or-miss. It is completely over-acted and stereotypical in every way possible but this is ALSO why we love it so much. Its like the Godfather of k-drama. The story line is so amazing because every episode has different problems then the previous. The music is done by some of the most famous names in Kpop. The acting is very dramatic. The filming sets are amazing, the producers definitely spared no expense for this drama. Out of all the different versions of Boys over Flowers this is definitely my favourite.

Sunshine Angel is a romantic story which follows the life of a young rich boy who unexpectedly falls in love with someone he wouldn't even bother to give a secound look to normally.. This story, Starring Rainie Yang and Farenheit's Wu Chun as the lead roles takes on the every day issues about the man who has it all, Unexpectedly then to lose everything previously valued to him before he met the girl of his dreams. I'll leave this review spoilerless..

Everything seems to go well for him, Until he takes a trip to Japan while skydiving. Falling towards the ground with a parachute who seems to be broken, Only to be saved by falling into the small bathroom of a young girl named Yokou (Yang Guang). Yokou is a girl with a far different background. Her parents are professional scammers who take money from people and usually leaves her behind to deal with the issues of cleaning up after them.

As the story develops you'll see Love, Drama, Proverty.. Along with lots of unexpected twists not expected.

The drama has a really good soundtrack, I Love nearly each and every song in the ost.. The songs are placed into the right scenes so I can't complain of the timing.

I'd really recommend this story to everyone, The story won't progress quite as expected. But I won't lie to you guys.. Despite of loving the main characters acting inside of this drama, It left me with a huge 2nd lead syndrome for Zhang Junning.. (Geng Fei)

I can not believe that I almost didn't watch this series. To be honest, the cover image threw me off. However, I was in for a BIG surprise.

The story and plot was wonderful! It was funny, sad, romantic, and breathtaking. I was an emotional roller coaster throughout the entire series. You're Beautiful put a very complex story into 16 heart tugging episodes and stole my heart. As a viewer you will be completely absorbed by the friendship and unrequited love between a Nun in training and a boy band.

The actors were AMAZING! Sometimes I forgot they were acting. This drama has none of the fake crying scenes when the actress just makes the face but no tears. No! In this drama tears will pour like rain, anger will burn like fire and the romance will make your own heart beat faster. I really love ALL of the actors in this drama. There was not one single weak character.

The music on this drama is so great that I downloaded them and is determined to learn the lyrics although I don't speak Korean. Lovely Day and Without Words are two of the most beautiful songs that I have ever heard on any drama. So convenient that I watched this close to Valentines Day. When they sing the songs during the song I felt like I wanted to buy tickets to their next concert! The VOICE was there! The EXPRESSION was there! The MEANING melted my heart. I love it!

Rewatch value? Lol well I'm ready to watch it again already! This is favorite worthy. I don't even know what else to say Lol

Overall my review may seem long and over dramatic, but I don't comment on every drama I watch. I STRONGLY ENCOURAGE YOU TO WATCH THIS DRAMA!!

I just finished watching this drama and what I feel right now is "Well, another good drama is over and now I have to be back in my real life." I really did enjoy watching this drama.
The drama succeed in creating its story. Each character has her or his own story and together they help each other getting over hard time in their life and get better. However, i feel like some problem in the drama haven't been solved in the end or did they do that on purpose. I love all the sound tracks in this drama. Overall, it is worth watching and if you like Dream High, High School Musical and Step Up, then you'll enjoy this drama.

Densha Otoko is definitely one of the best dramas I’ve watched, not about the super rich boy who falls for the poor girl, but about an otaku that falls for a refined lady. I have not watched the anime nor the movie that was aired first so I can’t make any comparisons.

But for the drama I can say that the actors were really well picked. Itoh Atsushi was definitely my favorite character and he really portrayed it well, the normal otaku one would imagine. But what I liked the most about Yamada was the way he felt towards Hermes and how he expressed it. From the first time they met and especially when he had to reveal his true self. I just found it so cute.

Itoh Misaki was also great. At first I thought she was a bit stiff, but I guess that’s how the character is supposed to be and she kind of started to grew on me, since they actually made a really cute couple.

And, of course, all the user of the internet thread made the story a lot more interesting, I just loved their conversations, their unique ways to react and their sometimes laughable sometimes useful advice that went accordingly to their internet characters. There were times when I couldn’t stop laughing.

Definitely a must watch. : D

You're beautiful was my first korean drama and I loved it. The main couple is just excellent, they have good chemistry and a lot of scene are just adorable. I laughed a lot and did not cry so much and sometimes it is damn good to just enjoy like this.

What I liked, beside the main couple, was that the plot was quite well found and the characters would find themselves in all sort of funny situations, a drama perfect to laugh and don't think too much. Well, it is not a spoiler to say that a woman with three men will lead to cute "love" scene between her and the other three and it was really nice, especially with jeremy and Hwang Tae Kyung.

The one thing I did not like so much was the relation between Go Mi Nam and Kang Shin Woo because I could not help but be sooooo sad for him all the time, but because of the main couple, I could not help but watch and love the story.

The music was quite nice and made me love K-POP =p Also, all the other characters were funny and I assure you that you will have a good time.

BUT do not expect a mature drama, it is more dedicated to a young public but it is also nice sometimes feeling of "pure" love =)

enjoy =)

If I had to describe Padam Padam in three words I’d pick Sublime, Original and Perfection.

The writing is sublime. I haven’t ever come across a drama with such an original take on what could have been a standard plot. I cannot express with enough appreciation how fresh this story feels while watching. Even with some of the same drama tropes like cancer and entwined fates, I felt as if I was watching a Kdrama for the first time. If I could elaborate on how amazingly lovely, heart wrenching and yes, even humorous this story is, I would talk all day and spoil any reader of this review. Clever details in very well acted scenes, smart dialog, raw and real emotion elevate this drama above most I’ve seen. The editing is almost part of the story. You must watch to understand what I am saying.

Jung Woo Sung was amazing. He portrayed Kang Chil with incredible fearlessness. I would imagine an actor must be brave to throw himself into a role and portray a man so raw, vulnerable and having to overcome such fear of a world he thought never wanted him. His performance was a tour de force.

Kim Bum did a fine job in The Woman Who Still Wants To Marry but he matured in this drama. As he has grown up, his acting has come along for the ride; his portrayal of Gook Soo was intense, goofy, natural and totally convincing.

Na Moon Hee who portrayed Kang Chil’s Omma was simply amazing in every scene. Her cranky, rough portrayal of Mi Ja (Omma) was bursting with life. I could feel the undercurrent of her loving so much if she ceased being mean and tough, she might melt away. She was incredible.

Han Ji Min was great as the tough, wary, vulnerable Ji Na who fell head over heels for Kang Chil. This has to be my favorite thing she has done that I’ve seen.

Choi Tae Joon who portrayed Im Jung gave a charming and very touching performance. I will be watching out for him in the future.

The cinematography was eye catching all the way through. There are sweeping views of meadows, snow covered valleys, quaint village towns and crowded fishing wharfs. Every local was rich in detail and perfect. The set design really needs to win an award.

The music was another 10. The main love theme “In Order To Live” was pretty and dramatic. The song “You Idiot” stood out for me as well; both for its lovely music, lyrics and theme and also the humorous title. That is exactly Padam Padam; a mix of incredible, intense emotion but also much humor and heart.

I would watch this again in a heartbeat! As full as my drama watching plate is, there will come a time when I will want to return and see this again.

Padam Padam is a complete GEM of a drama and I recommend it highly to everyone!
