  K-dramas Above All

  Strictly an opinionated article about why 0000 prefers Kdramas above any other type of Asian dramas, as she explores the difference in kiss scenes.

  1-The reason I watched this : As a huge fan of Itazura Na kiss I was hunting down all the dramas adaptations, this was the 2nd adaptation after I saw the disappointing J-version.
  
  2-Storyline/Plot : This drama cut many events from the manga; there were some changes from the original story but the plot was the same. The foolishness, the childish events, those happy romantic and sometimes sad dramatic moments were present which brought back a lot of memories from one of my favorite stories ever!
  It was fun to see this adaptation even though I wasn't really dazzled since it lacked many important events.
  
  3-Acting/Cast : I like Kim Hyun Joong because he's attractive but let's face it hes not that great as an actor plus his Beak Seung Jo's coldness really was exagerated sometimes yet it reminds me of Naoki's personality in the anime.
  Although OH Ha Ni was a stupid stalker, I never found her character annoying (Probably because she's much better than Kotoko in the Jversion)
  The supporting roles were really great especially Baek Seung Jo's mother; her character was really good to watch (a nice change from other evil mothers in Korean dramas) plus Bong Joon Gu and Oh Ha Ni's friends remind me of those from the anime.
  
  4-The ending : Well, there is the YouTube Edition so this is not considered as an "end".
  It would have been much bette if they extended it or made a second season because it didn't have much core like the Tw-version.
  
  5-My impression: I felt the story of Itazura na kiss all over again and most importantly I was able to gorget about the J-version disappointment. Even though, I wanted it to be a little different but I didn't hate it.
  
  6-Overall : If you are Itazura na kiss fan you need to watch this.
  If you like rom-com then you may like this.
  If you like seeing cute cast theb you would like this.
  
  P.S : The korean version was a medium between the disappointing Japanese version and the marvelous Taiwanese version. read more

  Funny how there's nothing really special about this, yet it's super cute to watch, even if they main characters have practically no chemistry together. They still make my heart pound in emphathetic angst at least once every episode. A little too long by the end (the second last episode was atrocious!), but overall a fun little watch. Honestly I thought I would hate this, but I found myself enjoying it against my will.

  It Started with a Kiss

  They are both live-actions of the same manga.

  Goong

  Both dramas have same screenwriter and the plot is kinda similar. Plus the actor who plays Oh Ha Ni's father (in playful kiss) and Shin Chae Kyung's father (in goong) is same : DD
