I was not Disappointed watching this

First of all, I have to say that I haven't read the novel, so I was able to enter the series with a completely unbiased mind. Due to time constraints, I started the series later. In addition, I hesitated because I read quite a lot of negative comments here. But since I'm one of those people who prefer to make up my own mind, I finally started the series and wasn't disappointed. I'll admit it's not the best series GMM has produced, but that doesn't surprise me.
I agree that showing Enchante right after Bad Buddy wasn't a good idea for GMM. I can deal with it myself and don't compare series with each other. That's probably because I'm used to Korean dramas quickly switching series.

I didn't go into the series with high expectations myself. I only do that when I'm pretty sure I won't be disappointed. And so I couldn't be too disappointed.

The story is basically very interesting and when I saw the teaser back then, that was the reason why I wanted to see it. But I also think that the story and the development was the weakest part of the series. More could have been made of it.

The actors were a big surprise for me. I won't say much about Fluke Gawin because I expected him to do a very good job, which I got. Fluke Pusit also played his role very well, although he's relatively new if I'm not mistaken. Boom and Aou weren't bad, but I didn't remember them that way. Maybe it was because of the characters they played.
I think Force was very good in his role. I can't really understand the criticism because I really liked his direction in the series. Maybe that's because I haven't read the novel. Incidentally, that's one of the reasons I never read a novel first and then watch the series. You can actually only be disappointed, if only because you get an idea while reading.
That's why I can actually only speak of the series and the performance of the actors, and in my opinion it was really, really, really good (for Force). I took his role from him and that is always very important to me.
To Book: Hm, I don't think he can't act, but maybe the role wasn't that good for him. I have to admit that I don't really like the role of Theo. I think he thinks about himself a little too much.
Spoilers: I mean, I can understand that he's sad about his parents' split, but as a student he should be mature enough to accept the decision. Also, I think he's also selfish going to France. What did he expect? That Akk, who already doesn't have much self-esteem when it comes to his relationship with Theo, is holding him back? If I had been Akk, I wouldn't have done that either.
Akk's sisters also brought the humor to the show. Above all, I really liked Egg.

I also really like the music in the series. I'm a fan of ballads and sentimental music, and I found that the background music always suited each scene.

Ultimately, I can only recommend everyone to watch the series, maybe you should wait a bit until Bad Buddy has been erased from your brain. The series just had a bad standing because it was released right after one of the best boys love series ever.
I can also only advise everyone not to compare the actors with Ohm and Nanon. Of course they are worlds apart, but Ohm also started out small. And if I'm not mistaken, he also started with a leading role^^.

So I recommend the series for those who would like to see a funny, best friend turned lovers series and maybe don't necessarily want to compare it to Bad Buddy. If you want to enjoy the series, I can only give you one piece of advice.

Everything else is up to you.

Excellent Acting, Story okay after Rewatching

Sometimes, I think, I shouldn't rewatch dramas, because my rating changes after a rewatch very often.

The story was very funny at first. After re-watching the series in its entirety, I didn't find it quite as funny anymore. I don't know exactly why, but some scenes didn't seem so funny to me when I watched them again, even though I took my time rewatching them. I first saw the series while it was on air. It's been a while now. Meanwhile, I don't find the story bad, but in retrospect it's not enough for an 8.0. But this is my opinion.

For me, a good series consists of many aspects. In addition to the story, it is very important to me that the chemistry between the main characters is right. Both in terms of romance and friendship. Both are the case here and it has remained so even after looking again. The actors are excellent. Unfortunately, I can't say with certainty that it's the actors themselves. I started another series with the two main actors and stopped because I found the acting very bad there. But that's my own opinion too. In 2gether, I think both Win and Bright play their roles really, really well. Maybe it's because of the characters they play. There are a few things that bother me, but that has less to do with acting and more to do with the Boyslove series itself. I come from a country where there are still certain stereotypes. In the meantime, I've also noticed in Thailand that there are always series in which some stereotypes are taken up. This actually applies to many series from GMM.

The music of the series is good, but not overwhelming. But it fits this type of series.

Overall it is a very good Series, mostly because of the Acting and Chemistry between the Actors.

Amazing Acting, but too much James x Ait

First of All I wanted to give this a 9.0 Ranking, but after I watched the last episode I had to change it.

Story:
The Story is well written like the first Season. There a Times you want to fight Tee and there are Times you want to cry with Bas ( I wanted it almost every time he was on the Screen). But the drama has the potential to be better. Maybe it is because of the small number of Episodes. I am a little bit disappointed because after I finished Season 1 I thought in Season 2 the focus would be more on Marco and Bas, But it wasn't the Case after all. And the last Episode was a disappintment for me. I gave the Story a 8.5 because of the few Scenes of Marco and Bas were really Amazing. For me there was too much of James x Ait. The most frustrating Thing is, that there seemed to be too much of time differences between the Ending of Ep. 5 and Ep. 6. Event thoug the possibility is very low I hope for a season 3 with the full story of Marco and Bas, because it felt incomplete for me.

Acting:
First of all I have to say there is one Actor I was very schocked because of his amazing acting. All of the Actors did very well. But Michael, who played Bas, was the best out of All. Everytime he was on the Screen I was amazed by his skills. When he cried, I cried, too and my Heart felt really heavy. I hope he gets more Chances to show his scting skills, because he really is amazing. His Chemistry with Daniel was very Good and I hoped, they would get more Scenes in last Episode, but I was disappointed. I am very happy for Bas, who has a happy Ending. Together with Michael I think Daniel has very good Skills, too.
Time and Benz did really good Jobs, too, but they didn't stood out. I would say, Michael carried the series and together with Daniel it was more Amazing.

Music:
The Music was very good, not too noisy and it was played at the right Moments.

Rewatch Value:
Honestly I think I will be rewatching only the Scnes with Bas and the one with Bas and Marco. But most of the Scenes are with James and Ait and I will be honest. There storyline in Season too was not very interesting for me.

All in All it was a great drama with some disappointments for me. The Most Amazing and rescue of my rating is Michaels Acting and the Story between Marco and Bas.

Story: The Story sounded very dramatic and I love melodramas. Almost every Episode of this drama is amazing and has suspense. This drama is not the typical 'Revenge' Drama like many others. It is about a detective who investigates a murder case which leads him to the discovering of his past. He discovers the real identity of his father and has to realize whose real son he is. Over the top he has a woman he loves but he can't show his feelings. Even though there are some Aspects I don't understand, the story is really well written. I mean, why don't remember both of the Eunjoongs, who they were as children? Amnesia? It seems to be a mystery.

Acting: I have to say, that this is one of the dramas, where I liked 99% of the Acting. It is one of the few dramas, where I changed my Mind about almost all of the characters. I want to start with the two Men, who have the same name.

Firstly, Kim Jaewon, who played Ha Eunjoong. HEJ is the detective who finds aut about is real family and the past of his 'father'. He is silent person who lovess his job. He knows who are his enemys. He loves his father and his younger sister. Kim Jaewon showed us a excellent performance. I felt with him and with his character and I loved him, but hated him, too. I think this performance was his best, even though I didn't watched all of his dramas.

Secondly, Ki Taeyoung, who played Jang Eunjoong. JEJ is the one who grew up as the Son, wo was abducted. KTY plays this character excellent. His Life is a rollercoaster. He followed his mother and became an Attorney who loves his mother dearly. Until he discovers the Truth. The sad Aspect is, that I wanted to hate him so much...but I pitied his character from the beginning til the end. I couldn't hate him. He was innocent. I mean he lived as another person, loved his family so much...and suddenly his life collapses... Yes, I think he was the saddest person in this drama. KTY did an amazing job.

The next amazing Acting comes from Shin Eunkyung. She was perfect in her Role as the mother who lost her beloved child and as the result she did something unforgivable. In my Opinion, it was a good deed, but her reason was selfish. She missed her real son every second of her Life. But she loved her 'fake' son very much. Like she used to say, she had two sons. When her real son was kidnapped, she gained another son. SEK is an excellent Actress. Her performance was extraordinary and her chemistry with her two sons was very good, too.

Jo Yoonhee as Woo Ahmi was okay. I liked her character more than the Acting. I am not a big fan of Jo Yoonhee, but she isn't on my Blacklist. Her Acting is not too bad...It's just okay.

Jo Jaehyun acted as the Man who abducted the son of his enemy. I know he did something you shouldn't forgive, but compared to the things Jang Taeha did, Ha Myunggeuns Sin was very small.

Park Sangmin acted as Jang Taeha, the enemy of almost all of the other Characters. He did a great job, too. His character was the only one I hated from the beginning til the end.

The supporting Actors like Han Groo or Kim Gyuri were great, too.

Music: The OST is one of the saddest and best I've ever listened to.
In Conclusion, the drama is one of the best melodrama I have ever seen.

Honestly, I hesitated really long before I decided to watch this drama. It's not because of the story or the Actors, because Song Seungheon is my favourite Actor. I am hesitating when it comes to dramas with morte than 30 1 Hour Episodes, because there is very much makjang and they are too long. So I have a love-hate Relationship with them.
But I love Song Seungheon and I am a big Fan of many other Actors and Actresses who were in this drama. So I gave it a try, even though I was spoiled how it ends.

Story: The Story is amazing. A boy witnessed the death of his father and wants to take revenge of the Man who killed his father. The drama takes place over more than a few years, I think it were 30 years with some time jumps. A nurse swiches two babys and changes the Life and the future of two families. The older Brother lives only for his family, He gives up everything to gain power even the love of his life. He lives his life for his younger brother who wants to become a prosecuter and takes revenge by law. But their Life changes when the dark secret comes to light...What should he do? His younger brother is the child of his biggest enemy...

Acting/Cast: First of All, I am a fan of more than one of the Actors, so this could be long.
I want to begin with my most favourite Actor. Song Seungheon plays the oldest Son of Lee Kichul, who died when Lee Dongchul was five years old. Since the day his father died he lived only for the revenge and his family. He loves his younger Brother, Lee Dongwook, even when he learns about the truth. For his brother he would give all he has. His Life, his Luck, all he has. Song Seungheon is an amazing Actor. I don't know why he is often criticized for his performences. But in this, you can't criticize him, because his acting is that of one of the best Actors in Korea. From his first until his last Appearance he stands out with an amazing Acting. Yes, he is very attractive, but I love him because of his acting. And in EoE he shows us that he can act. His role is very difficult to play, I think. Because Lee Dongchul has a tough life. He had to be not only an older brother but also a father. Because of circumstances he can't hold his promise but he helps his family even though he is far away. His deep love for the daughter of his boss shows us is warm side outside his family. He is a good Man who is uneducated but intelligent and a very good businessman. He gives up his love because of his revenge and because he knows the two of them live in two different worlds. Song Seungheon made me cry very often, because of his intense acting. When he cried, I cried. And he cried a lot. But I am one of the woman who like men who can cry. I mean, why shouldn't men cry?? They are humans as well as women are. When he laughed, I laughed. He was the one who had to suffer the most and his acting showed it in an amazing way. I think I know why he got the Daesang for his performence.

His younger Brother Lee Dongwook was played by Yeon Jung Hoon. I know his as a villian in Mask and there was his acting brilliant. So I was wandering if he can act as a Man who loves his family and wants to get revenge on the murder of his father. All in All his Acting as a victim. I was impressed by his Acting and the characters development. I mean he suffered a lot, too. His character fighted the whole drama. He was tricked, he had a difficult time when his brother wasn't next to him, but he survived the Fight against his enemy who later turned out to be his real father. I was very impressed by the chemistry between these two brothers who loved eacht other. They give up everything for each other even though the find out they aren't related by blood.

Lee Dahae played Min Hyerin and was supposed to be the Main Actress in this drama who has a conflict between her affection for the two brothers. Honesty, I was a fan of her coupled up with Lee Dongchul because I wasn't a big Fan of the other female Lead. I hoped the two of them would end up with each other, but Lee Dahae quit the drama because of some reasons. So she wasn't able to appear until the end. Min Hyerin is a character who goes through a big change throughout the whole drama. She is the daughter of a businessman who owns a newspaper. Lee Dahae is one of the most talented Actresses out there. I liked her in nearly every drama I watched with her. She did a very good job and I was very sad, when she didn't appear anymore.

Lee Dongchuls Love Interest Gook Youngran was played by the (at that Time) rookie Actress Lee Yeonhee. I didn't liked a character because she was nerve wrecking. Her Acting was good, but not amazing and her character was...annoying. I don't understand why he would give up everything for a woman like her. But his Love for er was real and she loved him, too.

Park Haejin as Shin Myunghun had a very big development in his character. The whole time I hated him, until the second half. I pitied him because everyone hated him. He was in a very big pain. His Acting was very good, but nothing compared to his Acting in Bad Guys. But this drama was one of his first so I understand that.

Lastly, Han Jihye. She played Kim Jiyeon who is loved by Myunghoon and Dongwook but she only loves Dongwook. He Character development was the only one I disliked. She was nice at the beginning, but after years passes she wasn't pitiful but awful. I don't know why, but I hated her halfway.

The Family of the Lee Brothers were very nice, even thoug sometimes I hated the Mother. Lee Dongchuls Friends were okay, and the Veteran Actors lived up with my Expectations.

All in All, the Cast was very well picked. I am not one of the Viewers who are satisfied with the allround cast everytime, but here I was.

Music: The Soundtrack was wonderful. I liked the Songs very much.

Rewatch Value: Even though the drama is very long I think I will watch it again in the future, because the cast is really amazing and the story is very good. It has all. Romance, Action, Rivalry...

This drama has it all. A perfect Story, an amazing Cast and one of the best Soundtrack of the year.

The Story sounds very fun and I have to say, that I began watching the drama not because of the story, but the Cast. I am not a fan of Rom-Com. I have a love-hate relationship because many rom-com are exaggerating. But after I watched the first few Episodes I loved the Story. "Still 17" has it all. The Story isn't too comediac, because it contains many stories which are dramatic and not only fun.

Like I mentioned above, I began the Drama because of the Cast. Yang Sejong is my most favourite Actor since I watched hin in Duel, where his performance was amazing. he is an excellent Actor and even though he seemed nervous and a little bit stiff at the beginning, his acting was amazing. I mean his character was hurt. He lived with thoughts, most of the other people doesn't think about. He seems to be cold but Gong Woojin is a really warmhearted young Man who has Scars. When it comes to People he loves, he is cute and protective, but also shy around them if he doesn't know them well.
Shin Hyesun actes as Woo Seori, a girl who was in a Coma since she was 17 and wakes up when she is 30. She can't believe her real age and I can understand that. I read some comments from viewers, who think that Wooris character was too childish. But honestly, I think it was okay, because she was 17 when she fell in a coma. Not all 17 year old teenagers are like adults and if you see that you aren't 17 anymore but a woman, who could be married and have children herself, you will be shocked. I would be. Shin Hyesun played her role excellent. I watched her in some other dramas and I liked her in Five Children very much. But in this drama, she was even better.
Ahn Hyoseob played the nephew og Gong Woojin who is an excellent rower at his high school and seems to be more mature than his own uncle. Yoo Chan is very protective and worried of Woojin. AHS is young and talented Actor. At first I was worried because of the age difference between him an Yang Sejong who is only 3 years older but in the drama there is an age difference of 11 Years. But it didn't affect the drama much.
Ye Jiwon played the mysterious Housekeeper of Woojins Family called Jennifer who is a someone you need to get used to at first, but after a few episodes I liked her and thought she isn't like she is without a reason. I like YJW very much. She is a really good Actress and I watched her in a few dramas before. She can play all types of characters and this is a aspect not anyone can do.

The Chemistry between Shin Hyesun and Yang Sejon was on top. The harmony was there. The age difference of 4 years doesn't matter much. I think they suit each other very well and this affected the drama in a positive way.

I want to shout out a big compliment to the Child Actors, who did a very good job, too. Both of them are very talented and I hope they can get an award for their performances in this drama.

The OST is one of the best which came out this year. i listen to it every free Minute. Sadly I haven't enough time.

I waited a long time to watch the drama and even stopped after a few Episodes. But I did that not because it was bad. I did it because it was excellent. The story sounded very interesting and I love it, when Actors play double roles. Twins who are different like fire and water is something I didn't watched until 'Your Honor'. I kiked the Story most of the time. It wasn't too much comedy, the romance was good and I didn't hated the second lead too much.

Yoon Shiyoon is one of my favourite Actors. I am impressed by his Acting skills since his discarge from the military. I think he is one of the Actors who are better than before the military duty. He played the intelligent but cold Han Sooho very well even though he played most of the time the younger twin. Han Sooho is a judge who has his scars, too even though he seems to have a very good life.
His younger Twin Brother is the full opposite. Han Kangho is tough. He isn't afraid of anything and he doesn't seem to care about is family because there is the "better" older brother. Honestly, I pitied him a bit at the beginning, but later I thought „You did right“, because he doens‘t give up when he learns more about life. Sometimes I thought YSH exagarrated too much as Kangho but I think it wasn‘t his fault. It was the character who sometimes was like a little child. Yoon Shiyoon proved again, that he is one of the best Actors out there.

Lee Yooyoung plays the female Lead, a university student who works some time under Han Sooho and has a painful past. It was my second drama with her after Tunnel and I think she acted better in this than in Tunnel. Maybe it was her character, but I felt her feelings. She delivered the feelings very authentic and it felt like she WAS Song Soeun. Her Acting was amazing for me and I think I will be patiently waiting for her next project.

The two second leads were not very known to me. I know Nara is an Idolgroup Member, so I didn‘t have very much expectations of her Acting. But she was okay. I think with more Supporting Roles she will be a very good Actress in a few Years. Her Character wasn‘t even a female Second Lead I hated.

Park Byungeun was an unknown Actor for me, so I was surprised he has a big filmography. His Acting was okay, but not amazing. I hated his character and I think the viewers should hate him. So I think he did a very good job.

The OST is amazing. I love all of the songs and I listen to the OST even now.

My plan to watch list is really long, but I am sure I will watch this drama again in the future.

The Drama had potenzial to become a very good Drama. Sadly it wasn‘t well written.

Story: I Know the Original Book and I like adaptions of booky, mangas, etc. but they have to be well written. The drama began very good but the story lost my interest so that I watched the last 12 Episodes yesterday and today after I paused it a few weeks.

Acting: The Acting saved this drama for me.
Woo Doohwan acted very well. The Problem was his bad written charakter Kwon Shihyun is an *** I wouldn‘t want talk to… The problem was he confused me. At the beginning I hated him, then I pitied him and last but not least I didn‘t know what I should think of him. Woo Doohwan did an amazing job and rescued the character. He is one of my favourite Actors and I hope his next drama will be better like Mad Dog.
Moon Gayoung is a very talented young actress even though I didn‘t watched many dramas with her. But I will in the future. Sooji was a complexing character, sad and devil. And she was madly in Love with her best friend who falls in love with another girl and this fact she can‘t tolerate. In my opinion her character was too devil. A little bit exagerrated.
Kim Minjae played the last fried of the trio. His character is the most well written. Til the end he was in Love with his friend and can‘t see her be sad, so he changed. Kim Minjae is a new Actor but he is very talented. I hope he gets more main roles and maybe he gets the first male lead role soon.
The Problem for me was Joy. Yes, she did a better job than in „The Liar and his Lover“ but although her character was well written, she wasn‘t very good. I didn‘t feel anything when Taehee was scared or sad. This is the difference bettween Joy and the other three. I felt the Sadness of Woo Doohwan, Moon Gayoung and even Kim Minjae but Joy. There weren‘t emotions…

Music: DK of Seventeen sung a very nice Song. It suits the situations and was played at the right moments.

Honestly I am sad that the ratings were so bad but I can understand it a little bit even though the Actors deserved higher ratings. The Acting of three Main Actors was amazing and Joy wasn‘t so bad that you shouldn‘t watched it. It was the Story which was the main problem...

This drama was an amazing drama. One of the best I have ever seen. With only one exception. But I can‘t talk about it, because I don‘t want to spoil you, guys.

Story: The Story sounded very promising. It has it all. Drama, tension, Melodrama and happiness. A drama which has it all can be top but it could be also a Flop. Misty was a top.

Acting: The best was the Acting, honestly. Although the story was amazing, too. Kim Namjoo is an amazing Actress. It was my first drama with KNJ, but I want to watch more with her. She has experience because of her age, but she doesn‘t look like almost 50 years old. She was amazing as a famous and arrogant News Anchor who is married to a Man who seems to love and also hate her. Her Arrogance doesn‘t fade away when the public suspects her of murder.
Ji Jinhee acts as her Husband who is a former Prosecuter but works now as a lawyer who doesn‘t make much money. He comes from a wealthy Family and loves his wife even though he seems to be very cold. He has a reason and I could understand him very well, even though I could feel with KMJs character. JJH was very good and in my opinion this role was his best so far.
Goo Yoon played a major supporting role and a Key figure in the whole story even though I asked myself long enough why he was so important…. His acting was very good and...he is really attractive^^.

Music: The Ost by Lee Seungchul was amazing. I put it to my favourite OST and I think it was the best thing to do so. It is dramatical but also sad. I think it suits the drama very well.

I recommend this drama to people who doesn‘t care about the age of the Actors/Actresses or about some secenes, because the first episodes show a little bit. In Europe it wouldN‘t be mentioned but in SK it was rated 19...

I‘m not a robot was one of the dramas I have a love-hate relationship with. The Story was...and the Cast was amazing. But it was Yoo Seunghos first romantic Comedy, so I was happy^^.

Story: I like robots and I want a robot that does my homework, too. But sometimes the drama was too comedic for me. I am not a big fan of comedy dramas. I like romantic comedys but they must not be too exaggerate. And sometimes it was too much. The Drama follows a young rich Man who has an allergy which doesn‘t allows him to touch people. Although he seems to be very cold because of his illness, he has a warm heart who could break anytime.

Acting: The Acting was the best thing in this drama. I wouldn‘t have give it a 8,5/10 when it wasn‘t for the Actors. I am a big Fan of Yoo Seungho since I watched him in Warrior Baek Dongsoo, a few Years ago and he didn‘t disappoint me again. YSH is one of the best and talented young Actors and he is very experienced because of his child acting career. But he didn‘t acted in a rom-com before, so I was sceptical if he could so such a drama.
Chae Soobin is a talented young Actress who isn‘t as long as YSH in the business. But she is very good and her Acting as a robot (and a fake robot) was very nice to watch. Her Character was well written and her Acting was very strong even though she is young.
It was my second drama with Uhm Kijoon and compared to Defendant I didn‘t liked him in this one. But I think it was his role, because his character was the weakest out of the three Main Characters.
The Chemistry between YSH and CSB was very good abd I was a little sad because of the weak rating in South Korea. But after I thought a little bit about it, I think the rating should not be the most important reason to watch a drama.

Music: The Soundtrack was okay, some Songs are nice to listen to, but the Songs aren‘t in my Playlist.

I don‘t know if I will watch this again, maybe because of the Acting...

Mad Dog is one of the dramas which doesn‘t focus on romance but friendship and revenge. And I like it even though I love romance dramas. But sometimes there are other things which are more important. And honestly, this drama wouldn‘t have suit a big romance, so I was very satified with what we got.

 Story: Mad Dog is about a small group made of people who want to take down people who commit insurance fraud. The theme is different from most of the crime and investigation dramas I have seen so far and this gave me one big reason to watch. The other reason was the Cast but I want to talk about the story first. Some people said the story was slow, but in my opnion it was the right rate. Many Korean dramas are very fast forward these days and I don‘t like it. The more the story developed the more the viewer got to know about the characters and their past especially the main characters.

 Cast: Seriously I need only one word to describe the Cast: Amazing! Yes all of the main characters were amazing in their roles. The Acting, the feelings...There isn‘t anything I want to complain. But I want to write about the main Characters who got my attention.
 First of All, Yoo Jitae. I watched him in Healer and I liked his Acting very much back then. His role was the Leader of the group „Mad Dog“ and an Ex-Cop. He has a personal reason for the work as the leader of „Mad Dog“ and if you know which reason you will love him even more. He seems nice to his friends, but if he doesn‘t like someone the person knows it...or he/she will. Yoo Jitae acted very well. His emotions were heartbreaking and I understand him and his reasons very much.
 The next Actor I was amazed by was Woo Doohwan. Like Yang Sejong he is a rookie Actor but if you don‘t know that fact you wouldn‘t think a litttle bit about it. Mad Dog was my first drama, because I didn‘t want to watch Save me when I only have time in the evening. In Mad Dog he plays Kim Minjoon. He is mysterious and seems to be very cold but he has a warm heart. He is very lonely and has a reason for his actions. Woo Doohwan plays excellent. I cried with him and I laughed with him and this means very much.
 Now I want to write about the only Female „Mad Dog“ Member. Ryu Hwayoung plays a young woman who worked with Yoo Jitaes character before. She seems a little bit arrogant, but she is hurt and she understands people who are hurt very good. Maybe Hwayoungs personality isn‘t very likable but she is an excellent actress, no doubt.
 The Love-Hate relationship between Ryu Hwayoung and Woo Dohwan is another Reason why I loved the Drama. The two of the should do a romantic melodrama together (but Doohwan acts opposite Rvs Joy-.-). Another Reason to watch this drama is the Bromance between Yoo Jitae and Woo Doohwan. The two of them have a very good chemistrya together.
 The other two Mad Dog Members, played byJo Jaeyoon and Kim Hyesung, were very good, too. Also Hong Soohyun as Yoo Jitaes Hoobae from the university.

 Music: The Song „Waht I want“ by Niihwa is a very nice song. When Mad Dog was on Air I listened to it every Day...Now I don‘t have time for that…

 Rewatch Value: I will watch the drama again, definitly...After my Exams...

Please don‘t get irritated because I gave this drama a high score. It is all thanks to the Acting and the chemistry between the Leads (and the Actors and Actresses all in all)

 Story: The Story is about two people who fall in Love, break up and meet again after a few years, when they are a little older. The story begins promising but in my opinion Ha Myunghees dramas doesn‘t have to be more than 16 (32) Episodes. The Script doesn‘t suit the episode count. Honestly, the beginning was promising and I liked the storyline, because there were to people who fall in Love, break up and meet again after a few years. But...there are (other than the break up) not many conflicts… I mean where are the parents, who I want to hate? Where are the enemies?
 Sadly I have to say, that you don‘t need to watch this drama for the story (But you could like it, if you liked Doctors). I watched this drama after a the first half only because of the Actors.

 Actors: That brings me to the people who did their best...and they did it amazing. I wouldn‘t rate this drama with 9.5 if it wasn‘t for the Actors. Yes, the Story was...loooong and fast told, but the Actors did amazing jobs.
 First of all Seo Hyunjin. ToL was my first drama with her in the first lead role. I was excited, because I heart very good tings about her acting after she acted in „Romantic Doctor, Teacher Kim“ and „Another Oh Hayoung“. SHJ played a woman at the end of her twentys (later in her 30s) who works very hard as an assistant writer who really tries to win a contest. Because of her Job she fights with her younger sister, with whom she lives under a roof. Hyunjin did a very good job. Her character Lee Hyunsoo is tough, has energy, but hasn‘t much interest in Love. In my Opinion Hyunjin is a very good Actress and now I will watch her other dramas too. She was one of the reasons, why I rated this drama so high.
 The Second (or first) reason is Yang Sejong. Yes I was sceptical when I heart, that he would play the first male Lead Role. Why? Because I saw his Acting in Duel and it was so amazing, that I thought he can‘t top it. Okay, honestly I can‘t compare his roles whith one another. But he did it. He was amazing, even though it was his first Lead role in a romantic drama. Sejong plays On Jungsun a young chef in his twentys who grew up in Francem where he was interesten in the french cuisine. At the beginning of the drama he works as a chef in a restaurant, where his boss is a ‚friend‘ of him. Jungsun doesn‘t have any experiences in Love but he learns very fast what it means to love another person woth all he have. Sejong really is an amzing actor and he wirks very hard. I hope his talent will be recognized, because I am very sad, that his dramas have low ratings…
 The Second Male Lead was played by Kim Jaewook. I like his Acting very much because of „Who are you“ where he played a Ghost. Jaewook did an amazing job, but his role was… I think it was a very complacted role. He played Park Jungwoo, a successfull CEO of his own Company who is interested in Hyunsoo and in Jungsun because of his cooking. So he becomes hin investor and one of the most important people of Jungsun (and Hyunsoo, too). Without knowing that his two friedns have known each other for years he loves Hyunsoo since he knows her.  He loves Jungsun, too, like a brother, but not enough to give up his love of his Life. Jaewooks acting impressed me very much. But his character wasn‘t mean enough. If it weren‘t for Sejong, I would have rooted for Jungwoo, because he was so...tragical.
 Jo Boah played the best friend of Hyunsoo who is rich but jealous when others are recognized and she doesn‘t. Boah played her role well, even though I think she seems to be younger that she really is. The opposite from Sejong who could be older than he really is. Boah role was Ji Hong ah who is in love with Jungsun, but sometimes I thought she only thought she loves him because Hyunsoo live him, too. I hope you know, what I mean.
 The people around Jungsun (Shim Heesub, Cha Inha, Lee Kangmin, Block Bs P.O and Chae Soojung acted very well, too. Ji Iljoo who plays the junior of Kim Jaewooks character and Lee Chohee who plays the other best friend of Hyunsoo were very cute when they were together.

 The Chemistry between the Actors were very good, even though the first two episodes were a little bit awkward. I hope Sejong and Hyun will be play a couple again but with a better script, ecause they are very good Actors and it would be nice to see them again. Maybe in a really sad melodrama^^.

 Music: The Music was amazing. I love the OST. The whole OST.

 All in all I want to say that you don‘t need to watch it, if you don‘t care for the Actors. But If you love the Actory you should try it, because the Acting and music rescues the whole Drama...

‚While you were Sleeping‘ was my 5th drama written by Park Hyeryun. The only drama I didn‘t like was Dream High. the other dramas I watched were very good. Even though I was very excited to watch the drama I was sceptical, too, because of Suzy. I watched her in Dream High and she was...bad. And I watched her in Uncontrollably Fond and she was...definitly not good. But I love Lee Jongsuk, Lee Sangyeob and Jung Haein and the story sounded very interesting, so I decided to watch the drama during the airtime.

 Story: Like I said before, I was excited because the story sounded very interesting and it didn‘t disappoint me. A young woman dreams about real incidents, who happens after she dreamed about them. It sounded different from most of the other fantasy dramas I watched until now. The story was ecxiting and honestly there were many surprises.

 Cast: The Cast was very good, even though Suzy was a little bit off. Especially I want to name two Actors who surprised me the most. But I want to begin with the two Main Actors.

 Bae Suzy. To be honest, I think that she should just stay singing, because unfortunately she is not one of the idols who can act as well. I was very skeptical about her role, but she was improving. In the first episodes I found her really bad. It was somehow ... stiff in my opinion. But after a few episodes, I realized that she has improved in comparison to her last drama. She will never be one of my favorites, but if she keeps practicing, she may at least be bearable. But I still do not like one thing about her. If she cries, that looks kind of artificial. Maybe that's up to me, but I do not think every actor can cry well and sadly, Suzy is one of them.
 The male protagonist Jung Jaechan was played by Lee Jongsuk. As I said, I'm a big fan of him since I saw him in School 2013, I love him and his way of acting. I must also honestly say that he not only plays the role of the rather childish and naive public prosecutor very well, but he is also pretty good at the role. It's one of the main reasons why I just could not drop this drama, even though I often have a problem with it if I do not like the chemistry of the main couple.

 By far the most surprising actor was none other than Jung Haein, who really surprised me a lot. He's a really excellent actor, and I was convinced of that when I saw him in 'Blood', which I stopped for some reason. I hope he gets the first lead role soon. His role was very nice and sometimes I wished he would end up with the female lead, but then I thought the way it was was the best. The Second Actor who was very surprising was Shin Jaeha. I watched him in Page Turner and didn‘t liked his role but his acting. In this drama he played the younger brother of Jung Jaechan who has a crush on a girl who is one of the guest stars in the first few episodes. Like Haein Jaehe is a very prominsing Actor.

 I liked the Acting of Lee Sangyeob, too, but his role was...>.< Argh could he get another role like in Innocent Man, please? I can‘t talk more about him and his role because I am afraid I would write any spoilers, but his actoong was amazing. Most of the other Actors were okay.

 Music: The OST is very nice, but honestly...Lee Jongsuk doesn‘t need to sing...I am finee with him when he only acts…

Story: The Story sounded very interesting when I first heart about it. I thought that a drama about doctors and nurses who are working on a hospital ship would be great. I didn‘t know they would add a romance. I love romance in dramas but not in a drama like this. At the beginning the drama had so much potential to become one of my favourite dramas because it was very different from other shows. But why did they add a love triangle (and a love story). At the beginning the story was good, but it got down after a few episodes.

 Cast: Honestly, the Cast was the reason why I watched it til the end. Ha Jiwon is one of my favourite Actresses and I have watched many dramas with her, even though the story wasn‘t very good. Ha Jiwon is an amazing Actress, maybe one of the best in Korea. But I didn‘t liked her role in the drama. I don‘t know why, but she was very cold to other people even though the other person was nice to her. To keep it short she acted very good, but her role wasn‘t very good for me. The character got on my nerves.
 Kang Minhyuk (CNBLUE) played Doktor Kwak Hyun who has a past with a famous father who isn‘t to recognize. Kang Minhyuk is a good Actor. He was impressive in The Heirs and Entertainer but the Role of Kwak Hyun didn‘t suit him. There wasn‘t any emotion for me. After I watched this drama I think Choi Jinhyuk woukd have been better that Minhyuk. The Chemistry between Jiwon and Minhyuk was like zero. I couldn‘t see any romantic feelings between them. The shouldn‘t have add a romance story…
 My favourite Actor war Lee Seowon and he was the one Actor I felt the most sorry for. Seowon has so much potential to become a very good and famous Actor but he chooses projects who aren‘t very good. Although I liked all of his roles until now. Seowon acted as the son of a hospital director and seems to be very arrogant on the outside. On the inside he is very lonely and sensitive, because of his family and past. I don‘t understand why he doesn‘t get a first lead role. I hope he gets one in the near future because his performance in this drama was one of the best.
 The supporting Actors acted well but not amazing.

 Music: The OST was good and it played at the right moments.

 I would recommend it if you don‘t care much about chemistry or if you can ignore a romance which isn‘t very useful.
 In the end I kept watching the drama only because of Lee Seowon, because he has so much potential but his dramas are not very good...

Story: This drama is about two childhood friends. One of them dies at the age of 19 and comes back 12 years later in the body of himself 12 years ago. The story sounded interesting so I decided to watch the drama. The storyline diedn't diappoint me, although I think it could be have better. The first few episodees were very good. The past and the first meeting after 12 years between the group of friends were very good. But I have to say that the drama became boring around the middle. The last episodes were okay.

 Cast: I have mixed feelings about the Cast. Let me begin with the Actors and Actresses I was looking out for. First I want to talk about one of my favourite Actors, Yeo Jingoo. I was expecting much because he did well in all the dramas I watched with him. And he didn't disappoint me. Jingoo is an excellent Actor. I was waiting for a romance drama in which he would play the main lead. I know he 20 years old but for his age he very mature so I hoped for him to get an adult role in the near future. Even though his role wasn't an adult because his role didn't changed he did very well. But he is one of the actors who have 'Problems' with their counterpart and that's makes me very sad and angry, too because he has so much potenzial.
 The next Actor I was amazed by was Kim Jinwoo. I like him very much in Remember – War of the Son so I was excited how he would do. He is a very good Actor and I don't understand why he doesn't get any main roles in main time dramas. I mean he is over 30 and has so much potenzial that he could play a main role. He has some emotional scenes in this drama and in my opinion he is very good when it comes to emotions.
 Kwang Dongyeon played one of Yeo Jingoos younger brothers who has some issues and a hard life after the death of his oldest brother. Dongyeon and Jingoo are the same age so I think it was a little strange that Dongyeon played an older person because he looks younger than Jingoo. He played his role with amazing skills, I could feel his emotions and I think he did very well.
 The last Actor who was a reason for me to watch the drama til the end was Yoon Sunwoo. It was my first full drama with him and I think he as a very good Actor. I don't understand why he is so underrated, maybe my taste and eyes a bad...I watched some scenes of him in Moon Lovers (but I didn't watched the whole drama, it is on my plan to watch list) and I think he is good. In this drama he played the second oldest sibling of the Sung Family who becomes a doctor with success.
 The two Sisters were plyed by Kim Gaeun and Kim Hyejoon. Both of them did very well. The other friends of Haesung (YJG) were played by Park Jinjoo (who did really well, too), Shin Sooho (was okay, but he didn't have many scenes) and Lee Shieon (who was my favourite friend after Kim Jinwoo).
 The biggest disappointment were Lee Yeonhee and Ahn Jaehyun as well as the chemistry between the two leads. Honestly the best chemistry was between the male friends, the siblings and for the couples between Park Jinjoo x Lee Shieon and Kim Jinwoo x Kim Gaeun.

 Music: I don‘t really remember the music…

 Maybe you think now „Why did this person the drama a 7.5?“. And this is a question I am asking myself since I finished the drama. It is all the thanks to the male Cast (without Ahn Jaehyun). They saved this drama for me.
