BEST SHOW EVER

i love this show so much ive rewatched it and sobbed just as much, its literally such a good show, i will never forget this show because its sooo gooodd

the ost is incredible too like its just so peaceful but works with the show as well, as well as also being great music to listen to in free time ??

i would recommend 2521 to anyone because its child friendly as well, and its just such a sweet story.

although the main storyline is romance, there are many other parts of the show that can make the show more interesting for those who may not be the biggest fam of love stories/romance

overall such a good show and would recommend to anyone because i know youll like it ??

decent show

decent show, some violence though
k2 was the first kdrama i watched and although i had some mixed opinions about it as i was watching it, i definitely felt like the show was worth watching.

the storyline is quite unique, along with the male lead and female lead’s lifestyle.

ALSO THEYRE LITERALLY SUCH A CUTE COUPLE like i love their romance because its so sweet.

ive probably watched the k2 about 4-5 times (im not too sure why tbh) but i still enjoyed it everytime for many reasons

im not too sure if i would recommend this show to everyone, feels like the kind of show some people would drop because the story gets a bit slow, but if your into the themes listed in the show, and you like watching kdramas, i would definitely recommend.

Watch for the comedy, not the romance.

Rolled on the floor laughing at their humor, very creative and unrepetitive. Multiple plot twist at the end that twisted so much the writer lost control of their own narrative and storyline. Ignored plotholes just to make the plot more thrilling. Unfortunately, the relationship between ML and FL is not reinforced at the end, feel forced. Even the side character relationships are more entertaining to watch than this couple. The crime is mediocre and doesn't make sense at the end (due to plot twists). An innocent bystander ended up solving the whole case and providing the evidence to catch the murderer, doing more than ML and FL risking their lives investigating all movie.

Watch if you can ignore a dumb story for the laughs and cries.

Topnotch story, amazing ensemble acting superstars and perfect direction

????? 5/5! Highly recommended to watch with its intricate storytelling, character depth, acting performances, emotional resonance, and the finale's nonstop action!

This is the best webtoon turned Korean superhero TV series for me (I think this is also the Best Korean Drama this year.)
Han Hyoo Joo, Ryu Seung Ryong, Jo In Sung, Go Yun Jung, and almost all other casts including even the villains are fantastically written. The webtoon writer Kang Full is also the same as their screenwriter so you can imagine how top-notch writing was overwhelmingly done.

It's like John Wick, Xmen, and Crazy Little Thing Called Love movies are all rolled into one. If you haven't joined the craze over this series, please see for yourself.

Best Part of the Series:

- Han Hyo Joo and Jo In Sung's electrifying chemistry. Can anyone please hear me when I say, these two should have another separate K-Series?
- Ryu Seung Ryong's dramatic chop. I will say in advance he will win the Daesang with that performance.
- Go Yung Jung's acting. She is one of the rookie actresses I think will really become someone very popular in the future.
- Han Hyo Joo's chameleon acting talent. She just played a school student (in a flashback scene) for the series Happiness and just a couple of months after ending taping the show, she is acting already as a mom. And boy, her acting is soooo believable.


Fave scenes:

- When Lee Jaeman unleashed the hell out of nowhere and beat 2 powerful North Koreans to a pulp that they couldn't even fight back. Imagine if Kang Hoon gets proper training to be as strong as his dad.
- 2 Daddies of the Year Ju Won and Jae Man teaming up!
- Lee Mi Hyun shows the true range of her superhuman senses. She has more kills in the finale than the rest. Mother is truly mothering.
- Kim Bongseukie and Heesoo's late tactic against the flying villain
- The villain's helpless and pitiful backstories.

People will do whatever it takes to survive; those who will not do so are bound to perish. 



— Review Part 1 —

People will do whatever it takes to survive; those who will not do so are bound to perish.

It is a very well-written story, and although it cannot be considered historically perfect, I found it to be largely accurate.

Romance might be at the centre, but its historical war setting plays just as big a role, too. Its intense focus on the ruthlessness of war, neatly tackling transformation, development, longing, loss and the deep unfairness of life, is nothing less than top-notch.

My Dearest not only explores life in times of war but people's reactions to it, and as such, war is questioned by many of the characters from different perspectives.

Of course, in times of war, prisoners were victims of constant physical and psychological abuse, torture and humiliation, and the unfairness of it all could reach inhumane limits.
The women were the target of rape and sexual abuse and were even expected to take their own lives if there was so much as an encounter with an enemy because, to society and their families, they were not pure anymore.

It is outstanding how most of our main characters show a grey moral character and emotional flaws, and their bad traits receive as much attention, or even more, than the good ones.

The costumes, scenery, cinematography and realistic scenes of the horrors of war are the best I've seen in a sageuk.

A must-watch.

24 episode would've been better

i love the plot soo much, it's very interesting to see ancient character in the modern world and i feel like the story was well-told. here's the thing, towards the end of this series it started getting boring and i barely made it through the last 9 episodes for some reason, they could've done the solution/ending of the plot wayyyy better.
overall this drama was really good at the beginning and it gradually got stretched.
the ending wasn't as memorable or complete in my opinion and i feel like they left some things out tho i can't tell what those things are, at the same time so many unnecessary things happened the last few episodes.
(this is my first review idk how to express my opinions, apologies)

the acting is crazy

first i’d like to say i just started this because of rowoon. i wasn’t expecting anything from it but it’s actually so good. i watch it really fast like in 2 days or something. the storyline is good but not great. the thing i love the most about it is the acting. both rowoon and bo ah shows the emotions really well. i feel like it’s happening right in front of me when im watching it. especially the scenes in the past, like when aeng cho died i literally cried for 2 hours and it wasnt even that emotional, but the acting was top notch so i cried a lot. it was funny too. i laughed so hard sometimes.
the mist memorable scene was the octopus scene i think. it was so funny and cute, i watched it like 19 times.
the chemistry between them is also amazing they look like an actual couple.
overall it’s really good and you should definitely give it a shot!

short but so cute

i was so devastated when i found out that it was just 4 episodes . i waited so long and i was so excited so i was crushed but now i think it was the right choice. it ended very well. i just wished to see more of them as a couple but still so good. especially the chemistry between sohee and hyung sik was remarkable both on and off screen. i watched all of the interviews and they are amazing.
seeing han so hee as a song writer made me feel things lol she was so good. im not even gonna mention how great hyung sik’s acting was. he is always good! he portrays the emotions so well.
i just finished rewatching it and now im pretending there was 8 episodes lol.

This was fantastic

One Piece ?:Netflix

(PG-13 for language, violence & self harm)

PROS:
◇The acting
◇The plot
◇The cast
◇The action scenes
◇ Ep 7 ?


CONS:
◇Certain scenes/choices didn't make alot of sense to me personally. That being said maybe it was in the OG and wanted to keep it that way. Not sure.
◇I honestly only have one was the use of so much language it felt force at times.

Overall really enjoyed this show and I am a fan of the live action OP. I still need to officially chexk out the manga and anime.

Rewatch? Yes when 2 season is complete I'll rewatch the 1.

a series of gender discrimination was mentioned in the series

I missed this series ? I loved it so much, I thought it was just a cliche and nonsense series but no, it was very lovely ?? It was full of good feelings. And finally there is a series that will make you feel good every minute ? and the most interesting thing was the relationship of the main couple of the series, unlike the other couples of Kdrama, the couple of this series have a very healthy and mature relationship, they don't fight or break up over trivial things. They didn't get upset, their relationship surprised me a lot. Also, a series of gender discrimination was mentioned in the series. This is what makes this series special for me. It was great, I enjoyed watching it??❤️

LAZY WRITING, AGAIN!

Why they always ruin a great show in the finale? Another lazy writing, at least in the finale. They had 24 episodes to finished it the right way, but no, let's do some stupid stuff. I honestly wouldn't mind if all 3 died. Why? Because at least that would make sense. Also, how on Earth is she was pregnant? They had one night together, and he left her for MONTHS! Are they never read anything about pregnancy? 3 or more months are not 3 weeks! Don't ever tell me the morning sickness is happening after 3+ months. They wanted them to have a kid just because the sake of it? Also, He had many times to kill the King, but no, why would he, right? Not to mention that everything was perfect with his army until the last half of the episode? A totally random guy just betrayed them? The whole show was so great till the finale. Anyone who says, this show is perfect is just another blindfolded fan, nothing more. The writers literally throw away everything they build. I don't mind the happy ending or even the sad ending with them dying with their kid, but I hate lazy writing so much!

I couldn't bear it and saw it at once

I couldn't bear it and saw it at once. I witnessed one of the most beautiful relationships between Ajushi and a child (who we say is the father of another daughter, actually) and I enjoyed it to too much. ^^ The acting of both actor & actress is completely perfect and beautiful in my opinion...
I am sad that this series has not been given the attention it deserves, don't miss this gem

Really, their planning was great until now, and I didn't think that the last sequence of the seventh episode would be arranged like this.

Just your regular romcom but better

King the land is a genuinely good drama.
It doesn't have a very out of the box storyline or unexpected twists and turns but it delivers what it promised.
The story is pretty ordinary and cliche but at the same time, like, set in a hotel, that makes it different??? idk.
Tbh it's a light and fluffy drama with very minor ups and downs. I don't get why so many people did not like it.
Honestly I would have absolutely loved it if it was a bit shorter (like 12 episodes or smthn) because the communication between the main leads was strong and they didn't really have any obstacles or anything to figure out or smthn so it did feel a little dragged at the end.
It was literally perfect till like the 12th 13th episode but after that I did skip through the episodes ngl.
But still it's a nice watch for something sweet and cute. Plus we get jun ho and yoona as eye candies ( I think that's also a great reason to watch it hehe)
All in all really did enjoy this one.
P.S.: Okay but the friendships here-----to die for istg >>

Don’t understand all the hate

Okay, I get this wasn’t a 10/10 but man people have a lot to say LOL. I actually sooooo enjoy JoongDunk together. They have wonderful chemistry. I ended up watching this after the show finished so for me it didn’t feel boring since I was able to watch back to back. I can understand how if you were watching week to week it could maybe get slow for you mid show. Half of the show was just them being a couple. If you prefer a lot of angst this definitely may not be for you but sometimes personally I just enjoy watching the couple experience. I do feel like there were alot of random plot points lol maybe the writers should have just picked like 2 main plot points and stuck to that.

I agree that the next show they do I would love to see something different and not related to school since this is their second show like that. However, I love them as a couple and how GMMTV lets then explore more!

You must stay alive for as long as I live.

Song of the Bandits was binge-worthy drama that brought its raw and aesthetic touch to familiar themes, and I enjoyed watching all episodes. There wasn't any unnecessary or dragging part, each scene delivered something specific and special.

Characters and their dynamics were beautifully written and, of course, with such cast, never doubted the acting quality. Each of them had this embodied presence in the story with their own roles that completed the whole puzzle effortlessly. Their goals, desperation and ambitions were beautifully portrayed from the way they carry themselves to their way of talking, dressing, walking - the details were picturesque.

And while I also think it deserves season 2, I liked the charm of its uncompleted ending as well, which is suitable for the times the story highlights. After all, those were times, many couldn't see the end of their own stories. It felt like they gave us a glimpse of someone's memories who also had many questions that they could only guess the answer.

The cinematography and shoots had artistic movie vibes, and action scenes were one of the best - with Kim Namgil in the cast, it was expected.

I would say, it worth the wait, from story to characters and the message each of them delivered, it was a beautiful watch experience. Came for Kim Namgil and Yoo Jaemyung and stayed for all the cast, story and their acting.
