All the guys are in love with the half vampire

It is very interesting to note that the ML in our story did not seem to have any agency or the any way to seemingly say no to anything. I found it odd that every time a character took blood from him even without his permission he said it was fine or okay to the FL who tried to stop them. Maybe it was the vampire charm, but, we will never know.

I did find it quite funny that the most vampire looking guy ever (Second male lead) was thinking that a half vampire(FL) who said she was trying to blend in as a human would like a guy who looks so much like a vampire.

Spoilers for the end:
Was the werewolf guy actually a vampire? Do werewolves drink human blood in this world? Is he a half vampire half werewolf? We will never know.

I recommend instead of watching this to go watch Orange Marmalade instead. That was a much better school sort of vampire plot than this and I understood the ending and the plot much better.

7 episodes in the Main Lead become Good!

This drama overall is not that bad but, the first 7 episodes leave a lot to be desidered. The male lead is annoying and does pretty bad and irrating things in the first 7 episodes. If you can get past the first 7 episodes, you will like the show most likely. Because the Male Lead becomes a better person and stops doing the stupid things he did in the first 7 episodes.

I think to give you the correct opinion of my feeling on the show is how I explained the show to my younger sister who was not watching the show. I told her that each time the FL and ML get into an argument which is a whole lot he drives away with her in the vehicle to someplace where they spend alone time. And this is really quite true. Now, before the 8th episode it was almost always against her will that he dragged her way to someplace. But, after the 8th episode she often came with him to places to spend time with him.

The one time that he kisses her and she slaps him, it is easy to forgive him since the FL sees that he is sincerely sorry after this and he truly did not want to force himself on her, he was just trying to get rid of the other annoying ladies in his life. The classic situation where the media basically forces you into kissing a person to prove that you aren't together with another person. But, he is truly sorry for that and she forgives him and they still take all the way till the end of the series to get together.

The ML in this show realizes he is in the wrong and becomes a better person and he does not do anything that he cannot be redeemed from in the episodes before he starts to change. If the show had only the last 7 episodes and not the first 7 the show would be rated a lot higher in my opinion. So, in essence guys try to endure the first 7 episodes, plow through and get the sweet episodes. It is well worth a rewatch! I would definitely want to rewatch this to truly evalute each character better and to truly understand the full story line.

Having watched almost all the Itazura na Kiss adaptions up till now, I was not worried really about the adaption instead, I just wished to see if this story could play out well in a 2 hour long movie since up till now I had not seen any of the movie adaptions and only the tv adaptions. And I can honestly say that for the movie version, they did pretty well.

As for spoilers in the general story line, it is clear to the audience that the ML has some feelings for the FL athough, they do not seem to affect what he does in general. He still teases her, he still insults her and he still carries on with the arrogant attitude. But, the audience sees a great number of his emotions on his face unlike the anime or most of the adaptions were they try to keep the ML from smiling ever till the very end. As for the events that occur, most of them follow events in the orignial, with the exception of the ending and a couple of events in the middle. It is clear that most of this was done because of the lack of time and so, they spent time making the audience believe the romance.

ML is not as stoic as he is in other remakes, but I found him to be trying to play the same character overall, just his arc is speed up a bit for times' sake.

The ending for they got together is quite a bit different than the anime but, they tried to keep it in the feel of the story and they have a magificent kiss even if it does not follow the same events or the same conversation. The side characters are less well developed and the SML is only there for jealousy and laughs. He does not get his own girl at the end or grow. Mostly, the story only focuses on the two leads, and somewhat ignores everyone else.

But, as a movie version of this story, I throughly enjoyed it and I would recommend it to anyone who likes the anime.
But, the best adaption of this story is still the Japanese Love in Toyko one.

Well Intended Love Season 2 is just a repeat of Season 1 but, done with a much better story line for all of the characters. I know that going into this season I was looking forward to a continuation of last season and to see a season filled mostly with fluff and little of anything else, so, at first I was sad to see that Season 2 did not continue the story but rather rewrote Season 1. But, that is not the case anymore. Eventhough I liked Season 1, (or struggled through the show because I liked the actors), I found that Season 2 was a much better show.

To tell you the main differences but not give too much away, I will tell you that mainly how the ML tricked the FL into marrying him was changed. (Spoilers for Season 1: The ML tricked the FL into marrying him by pretending she had cancer and he was her only cure.)

But, in Season 2, ML does not trick her into thinking she has cancer, and since he only came up with the solution to the problem that they had and did not create the problem itself, the FL can forgive him more easily than last season and the whole secret does not seem like that big of a deal.

Also, another cute couple to watch in this series is the Second Male Lead and his girl. The Second Male Lead is only in the love triangle for a short time and then he moves on to better things like growing his business. A girl starts to fall for him in the show and decides to blodly move forward to get her man, and in the end she succeeds.

As for the acting in this drama, they were the same great actors they were in first season and their chemistry was off the charts.
As for those who have not watched first season, that is really not important, just know that two times they reference season 1 once in episode 1 and once in the last episode, other than that I think you can get by without ever seeing season 1. In fact, I would recommend for people to watch season 2 instead of 1.

100 Days Husband is basically Shopping King Louie but set in Joseon Time period.

A rich young man who has memories of the female lead whether he remebers them or not, loses all of his memory and gets lost, the female lead finds him.

Now, that he has lost all of his memory and has no memory of where he lives or who he is, the female lead and him are forced into living together. At first, the man useless and buys items that cause the woman to go into debt because he has no money of his own.

The female lead forces the male lead to get a job, but, the male lead is found to be very bad at that job, until they find out what he is really good at and he regains his memory. For a time the female and male lead live apart since, the male lead was found by his family and regained his memory, but later on, the male lead goes back to get the female lead and they live happily ever after the end.

Also, to make it more confusing the female lead in these two kdramas are played by the same actress Nam Ji-hyun.

But, 100 Days Husband is a better kdrama because it fixes the problems that I had with Shopping King Louie.
Politics added to the drama and made it less boring to watch and kept my interest even when the main couple had to be separated for a time. I found that the characters in 100 Days Husband felt more like real people who were going through real struggles.
For the casting/acting, D.O. and Nam Ji-hyun had great chemistry and really I could not imagine anyone else doing their characters as well as they did in the story.
The music in this Kdrama fit along with the storyline and tone and helped bring a certain atomsphere to the show. Kim Jongdae sings an OST for this drama and that is not the only song that is awesome in this drama.

The rewatch value for this drama is high as all the parts of this kdrama feel needful and add depth to the characters in the story.

Although, I did enjoy the kdrama overall, I found something was missing. I am not sure why it was missing from this drama, or why they choose to do this, but, I found it disapointing. The story and the plot line were good, and I think a number of fans would love this story and enjoy watching this, but for me, there is some missing elements from this kdrama.

The story was pretty good although, the ending kinda was not as good or as epic as I wanted it to be. I felt like the story died around episode 9 or 10, and was really dragging by the end. Thank goodness, they did not make this 16 episodes, I would have really felt the drag. The girl did seem to care about Holo quite a bit more than our ML, so, I understand why he thought she would be happier with Holo than with him. There was a really cool part where Holo and him were fighting against the bad guys, but, that was short lived when I wanted more episodes on that and what a great team they would make together. I did like the sweet ending with the wedding, but, I found I never thought Holo was ever truly dead to it made it hard for me understand what the characters were feeling at the end when Holo was deleted. I always knew he was coming back. But, they couldn't have done anything else, so, I don't blame them too much for this. I will say this, this drama needs to be watched all at one time, binge all the way, this is not a drama to be watched week by week.

The acting was awesome! I loved all the actors. I know I have seen a lot of them in other things and Chansung was awesome here, I bet this was an introduction for some to 2PM and if so, this was a great introduction. It was obvious, they were going to redeem him when they introduced he was behind the car crash/chase early on.

Frankly, I do not remember any of the music for this drama, infact, I do not remember any points where the music took to make the scene any different if they had no sound in the background. And I found this really sad, although, they may have had some songs, I will not be looking any of them up, because I do not remember them in the drama. This made the drama feel so souless to me. In fact, the music is always something I look forward to in kdramas as standing out and being memorable, or breaking your heart, or giving you nostaglia for the time you were watching that kdrama.

Rewatch value for me is very little. I found that I might want to watch certain parts over, but, the kdrama as a whole is lacking that extra something to make this kdrama a classic one for the ages. I feel like in a decade people will forget this kdrama happened. It really feels like a webdrama in terms of feeling and soul. I don't know something was missing. This kdrama felt less epic and more like a webdrama in certain aspects I cannot comprehend. I figured out after watching this drama that there was hardly any romance between ML and the FL. The story was more about Holo developing as a hologram AI and how Magic Mirror wants to steal Holo from the ML then, the romance between the two leads which was quite sad. The romance is drama was sidelined for other plotlines that were less interesting.

In conclusion, the story idea was great, and I really liked the acting and production value, but the OSTS were lacking and I found the whole piece souless.

For some, this drama may have not lived up to all their expectations, but it certainly lived up to mine. And I love rewatching scenes from this drama. This drama is so good I am trying to force my family to watch it. It may be a little difficult since they don't like medical dramas though.

First, I want to talk about what this story was to me and why I love it so much! This drama may have been played off as a medical drama, but, to me the medical stuff was only a backdrop for the real heartwarming story! This story was about a Romance that never died, even if Song Jae-Hee had died, I am convinced that Park Hoon would have never loved anyone his entire life. She was the only girl for him, and I loved that! I can't help it, a guy loving a girl no matter what whether she is dead or alive is my kryponite. This is why I loved this drama so much, the love spoke to me. To me, I can always get behind a romance if the guy is head over heels for a girl. The Heartbeat Couple withstood all the obstacles thrown in their way and got together. There were so many things trying to stop them from ending up together, other people who fell for Park Hoon, and also North and South Korean leaders.


I heard that this drama was based on a book, and believe me I wish to read that book. Although, I heard that the ending wasn't as good for our Heartbeat couple as this ending was.

Second, I wish to talk about the Cast/Acting. I loved it, all the actors played their parts well and I loved really believed that they were made for these parts. I can't really see any other actors playing these characters. Lee Jong Suk and Jin Se-Yun of course as our Heatbeat couple stand out! Also, just to let you know there are some really good kiss scenes in this drama! (I guess that is to be expected though, it is Lee Jong Suk after all.).

Lastly, I want to talk about the music in this drama and the rewatch value. The music still brings tears to my eyes when I hear it because I can see the tragedy of our Heartbeat couple so clearly playing out before they got a happy ending. For the rewatch value, although, parts of this drama were clearly about medical operations and surgery, I would not rewatch those parts because I like my family am not into medical dramas. I prefer romance, friendship, action, and family over medical. But, I would rewatch the romance and the funny scenes. They were the core of this drama to me.


Anyway, despite all the other reviews you read, I suggest you give this drama a try, because you might find that you love this drama like I did when everyone else gave it a bad review. I say it is well worth the time.

I think that this Korean movie is something the audience should dwell on or think about. The movie is in this case to be a reflection of what not we should do, but, rather what we should keep in mind not to do.


This movie isn't happy really at all, there are happy moments a few times in movie, but, largely the movie is just showing a really depressing story about a young girl and the boy who lost her as a friend. We are not meant to know what happens at the end because the boy is our main character. He ran away and now it is a little too late to change anything. He realized his mistake too late.

So, in essence this movie was teaching us about regret. He regretted all the things he did do and shouldn't have and he regretted all the things he didn't do but should have. Because I am an American I am not use to the movies where the ending just leaves the main character regretting everything he did. We like to feel happy at the ending of movies and we believe happily ever afters should happen at the end of stories. So, for me movies that end like this leave me feeling depressed or regretting the last two hours I just spent watching this movie. But, for others I know they will not feel that way.


Regret is not something we want to be left with in our lives.

Jinyoung on the other hand was a great actor, and I hope he gets more movies and dramas in the future. Hopefully, movies I can watch without feeling depressed.I am so excited for the JJP comeback at the end of this month!

When I first started this drama I understood why people were dropping it like a hot potato and the rating it was getting as a drama. But, that was quite sometime ago and I hardly remember my feelings at the drama at first. I had watched the first four episodes and then put it on hold for 2 years. But, I picked it up again just recently, and watched episodes 5-12 in a couple of days marathoning for several hours every day for three days.

The modern story has less of a draw for me, I just found it mostly just the same as the other school kdramas out. But, the Joseon time period episodes in 5-9 were just what I wanted. I found that story intriguing and fun, plus, I felt like I could have watched 16-20 episodes of that story. The boys are best friends, and in the end it ended in a tragic love story with awesome bromance.

That is why this drama for me is really a mixed bag. I really loved some of it, and other parts were boring and tiresome, like for instance when all the kids at school were afraid of vampires. Especially, a hot hunk vampire who they had been gushing over how hot he was just a few days earlier. My response to a hot vampire dude would have been the same that those fangirls of his had near the end. He is just a hot dude who eats strange food and medicine, he is still a hunk.

The romance was not exactly lacking in this drama, but there could have been more romance for the vampire guy. All in all, I didn't hate it overall, but I would loved to see more of the Joseon time period episodes, and less school issues.

Pure romance hidden in a sport drama. When I first started watching this drama it seemed like it was going to be a sport drama with a slight bit of romance, so I wasn't sure how long I was going to keep watching it. In fact, my sibling stopped watching it too early because they thought it was going to be all about sports.

But, I kept on through the first two episodes or so where the romance was very slow and at first did not seem to be what the story was going to be about. But, I was so dead wrong. Yes, there are parts of the plot just about the sport they are in, but, that just gradually became like the background to the romance.

The romance is best friends finally becoming more than friends, which comes off as really sweet and I just love the relationship they have. When they struggle they lean on each other and it is a really good example of a real relationship in real life. I felt like they were truly in love with each other and definitely I would love to see them in a drama again with each other.

The music was sweet and awesome and I love listening to the music all the time. For sure this is a romance to rewatch.

Tomorrow with You is pure romance. Even if you do not really care about the time travel aspect at all and just love romance this could be a great drama for you. Right now I am forcing my siblings to watch it because I think it hit the spot so awesomely. So, far they enjoy it.


Time travel is at time a hard thing to get right. Sometimes, if you use time travel too much in a drama it will end up not being even suspenseful and the audience will get very tired of the fact that all situations can be solved with time travel. If on the other hand you use a lack of time travel it will become only the backdrop of the story and your story could have easily gone without that backdrop. Instead, you need to make sure that your story could not work without time travel but not everything can be solved by time travel. Make rules and stick to them. Do not change them at the last minute.

This story got time travel right. Plus, it had a creative way to put in certain elements that left us intrigued on what was happening next. The casting although at first I didn't understand grew on me and loved the romance. Overall, this is a drama I would watch again and again and never get bored. It's sweet romantic and has the element of time travel!

Do not come into this drama thinking that everyone you like will be happy all the time. There are seriously depressing parts of this drama, warning for all those who watch this people do die.....

Hwarang for the most part is a light hearted fun bromance filled drama. If you want a drama with tons of eye candy this is definitely a good choice. But, understand that you may not end up caring at all about the main romance.

My favorite romance was not even the main romance, so that was depressing for me. Now, unlike others who got second lead syndrome I didn't it's just that the main romance did not have the same appeal as the secondary romance couple.

The casting was awesome and the actors they picked seemed to really fit with those characters. Also, since most the main actors are kpop idols it was hard to disconnect them from their characters as kpop idols. But, the drama rolled with that, and that is why I definitely love this drama. The music was awesome, as well, as it should be since it has so many singers in the show. The plot for the romance was the only thing that really lacked but for the most part that could be ignored. The plot for the rest of the story though ignoring the romance was interesting and intriguing. I loved this drama and would definitely watch it again!

Frankly, after hearing a lot about it, I expected something very different from what I got.

To me, I did not really care for this story. I did not care if the couple stayed together or never saw each other again. The dude was lame to say the least, and yes he did change for the girl, but, the girl wasn't that great either. So, in essence it's a story about two not so great people getting together, for some reason, or because of fate or something.

I only really watched this because of the kdrama that they are making this year that will be based on this plot. I hope both characters are some what better than these characters so I can root for them. These characters just made me want the movie to finish already. But, I guess I should have expected something like this, I have never really cared for most Korean Movies, and a lot had to do with the characters in the movie. I don't know why but, Korea makes great tv shows, but most of the movies I have watched from Korea are really lacking. The ones I have liked so far are IL Mare, Blind, and Miss Granny.

I liked the music and the actors in this movie however. I think they were the only thing good about this movie. The twists in this drama made me question more on how they were possible rather than be surprised at all. Like the tree twist, do trees really grow that fast in a year? This twist left me confused for ages. Anyway, I hope that if you decide to watch this, you do not feel like you wasted your time. I am not sure if I wasted my time or not, but, now I can say I have watched the movie. Not sure whether that is a good thing or not.

I don't know, I am just confused, after watching the movie, I am not sure what else to say. That's it for my review.

So, I watched this movie in theaters and I am the one who added a summary on Wiki for it. I went to watch with my sister because I did not want to watch it alone. It is very hard to say in general I disliked this movie, for the most part I just hate the ending.

I am a fan of Kris Wu and that is the only reason why I went to watch this movie in the first place, but, I really ended up disliking his character at the end. For those of you who have watched it, I know why he did it, but, he was still wrong and it is against my moral beliefs. For those of you who haven't watched, I have a hard time recommending this movie to anyone. I mean, I had fun while watching it but, it kind of does not make you ever watch to rewatch it. The rewatch value for this movie to me is nothing.


For those of you who like Joo Won, sorry, guys he is evil and does not get better, and he is the only Korean in this film. He is a great actor in this film, though, you really hate him.

Also, I feel like this whole plot could have been fixed if only Kris had not _____. I felt like the movie led us up to something and then never fullfilled what it promised to us earlier. I mean, really Kris should have never _______ because the movie told us he was just that good and made a point of making that point, but, then he still ________. Ugh, why did Kris ____?

Anyway, the music was not really memorable except for Kris' song which can be listened to without watching the movie.

Frankly, as far as the plot goes I did not care what guy the girl went with. In fact, when I went into the movie I knew it was sad, but, I thought it was going to be sad for different reasons. It was really sad, but, not because of the love triangle. Also, I did not like the side couple (well, just the guy, the girl was fine) so, it was incredibly annoying when the guy was a friend of our main character.

So, in the end I am not sure I reccommend this movie at all.

It was a very interesting movie especially the way it was formatted and done. But, I thought the storyline was only okay, I saw the twist before it came and certain things were left out that I wanted explained. All in all it was not a bad movie and it is still one of the best Korean movies I have seen, but, I wasn't exactly thrilled about this story or plotline. It's true I came in it hoping to just see more of Chanyeol and the girl he was with in Exo Next Door. This movie indeed did give us a glimpse of that couple occasionally which I was perfectly fine with, and I did enjoy some of the surprisesite that came with that girl and them going on a date was cute. But, be prepared if you only came for Chanyeol that this story has very little to do with him and a lot to do with the older couple and if that is okay, then feel free to watch this movie. It was well made even if I did not exactly enjoy or like the plot.
