Funny, Cute ,lovable short and sweet drama-Must watch for fun moments
Its a cutest time travel drama i have ever watched. It dont have the serious tone time travel dramas usually has. Its simple yet beautiful drama to watch. There were few heartwarming moments are there also. Normally korean female leads used to act cute. But this FL lead is really cute to watch and apt for this schoolgirl character. Another side ML showed his great acting skills on a few emotional scenes are really nice to watch. Reminded me of "Love in the moonlight" drama--which i enjoyed watching.So i liked this too.If u looking for cute ,funny,lovable drama ,U can try this.

For those of you who are history buffs - no, this drama is not accurate or representative of what history would have really looked like, but I was totally okay with that. This story was so light and fluffy with good feelings that it'd be difficult for the average viewer not to find it appealing. I will definitely be rewatching in the future! Happy watching!

*calm down* So...i think i loved this mini drama more than i thought. I wasn't really expecting much from this because it's a korean web drama,and let's be honest not many of them are great...or as great for a perfect 10.
But this one...you know that exciting feeling when you find a perfect drama for you? I got that feeling in the first 20 minutes. And when i finished it,i wanted to cry,not because it had a sad ending but because i knew i wasn't going to see these characters again.
I swear,this should've been at least 8 episodes long (each one an hour,just so i could be satisfied enough). I mean i can even list you a long ass list of things that i loved and hopefully they would make anyone watch this
-The plot is unique and light
-It has a bunch of funny and witty scenes so you're 100% gonna laugh
-The female lead is excellent and SO RELATABLE (i'm bad at math too girl,don't worry)
-The male lead is eye candy (How can you not love Yoon Doo Joon )
-The acting in general is on point. The cast was just perfect for this and you can feel their chemistry
-If you don't like historical dramas,don't worry,you're gonna like this one.
Overall,if you haven't watched it yet i truly recommend it. I enjoyed every second of it and i want to rewatch it again soon.

It was honestly a very light and cute drama and it was exactly what I needed that night, but at the same time...I wasn't to found of the ending. I mean I knew that there was no other way to go about it, but I am still upset. It reminded me of this manga I read when I was in elementary / middle school. This drama wasn't as complicated as this manga...obviously, but the endings reminded me of one another. In the manga, because Tamahome (literally the only character name I remember after all these years) is a character from a book, he cannot follow our main character to her "real" world. Even true love couldn't bring him into her world. BUT what they could do was somewhere down the road, his soul could be reincarnated into someone's body in her world and they could meet again and be together. At the time, I was like this is so romantic and I am super happy, but now after all these years, I didn't feel the same. In the first series, the ending was cute and sweet because he was able to be reincarnated to he could meet her in the modern world but I wasn't a fan of the second series following them after. Tamahome is reincarnated and living as a normal high school boy named Tama who has this deep connection with the main girl and has no idea why. Tama has NO memories of his past life and falling in love with her, and to be completely honest, is a different person entirely and you can see that sadness in the main character. She loves with boy who looks exactly like Tamahome, but isn't him. And it is heartbreaking. Yes, it was supposed to be a happy ending and it was, but my heart broke for the King. After living his life doing everything out of duty including marrying a girl he didn't love, out of nowhere a young high school girl who dressed up as a man and taught him math ended up also teaching him what it means to love someone. Homeboy fell deeply in love with her and was ready to spend the rest of his life with her, even though he wasn't able to make her his wife, he could make her his consort. Not ideal, but not much a King can do in the 1400's after already being married. It was a very sweet relationship that the both of them had, and she was deeply in love with him too, but she ultimately decided to leave because if she stayed, she'd just be running away still. She wanted to face reality and prove to herself that she was smart and capable. Unfortunately, she didn't feel like she would be able to do that in ancient Korea. It was heartbreaking to think about the King having to say goodbye to her and him loosing the one person who taught him love and also taught him, as well, that he is capable of ruling a kingdom with his ideas. I realize that not everyone will be with their first love forever and this is the same thing, but it kills me inside a little that right before he left he said that no matter how long it will take, that they would meet again. Romantic af, and a little foreshadowing, but also it is sad to think that he had to say goodbye to her and live the rest of his life without the woman that he loves. Then we go to modern time and she ends up meeting his "reincarnation" or who we think is his reincarnation, half a year later, due to his looks. They end up meeting and the drama ends there. He says something along the lines of how he knows that they have met before and it is cute because she thinks it is because of when they fell in love when he was a king, but you learn that they had actually kind of met in the first few minutes of the drama when she left her umbrella on the bus and he tried to return it to her and failed. Regardless, that is cute. Yes. I am happy. But I couldn't help but think of that manga. Sure this new reincarnation could be better than the King ever was OR maybe he isn't his reincarnation at all, but in her mind, she chooses to see the King in him. Who knows? But I also feel bad for the modern guy because just like Tama, he is going to have some shoes to fill. My final thought about the drama is that...why couldn't it had ended up Inuyasha?? Yes, this drama is more "modern" and it's great to see a female lead chose herself and her self worth over being with her first love, but homegirl could have had both I think. Shoot, girl get yourself written in textbooks as the first woman to invent stuff. Yes, it would take years for a woman to be seen as an inventor, but you could start a movement. I know I am being too hopeful LOL. I know everything in this drama is the way it was supposed to happen, but just thinking about that manga and Inuyasha...it makes me think about what could have happened. No one is at fault, and I am not mad at the girl for leaving. I am just a little bummed. Was this review helpful to you?
Cute, Funny, and Easy Watch <3
If you're looking for a short and sweet drama to watch this one is definitely for you! The romance was cute and the story was funny!Story- It was simple yet effective! We get to watch the FL gain more confidence in herself as she introduces the future to the Joseon people. There was also plenty of moments that will make you laugh and swoon for the main couple :)
Acting/Cast- Everyone did wonderful!
Music- It's great, the music fit the scenes well :)
Rewatch Value- I don't typically rewatch shows but if I did Splash Splash Love would be a high contender since it's short and cute <3
Overall, this drama is a must watch, especially since it's so short! Happy watching :)

Highly entertaining, Splash Splash Love was one of my few forays into the historical genre. I liked how the drama brought the present to the past through Dan Bi and her technology. I liked how Dan Bi and the king started as friends before blossoming into something more. Everything felt natural and lighthearted, making it something I will definitely rewatch in the future. But it wasn't without its moments of drama - thankfully, said moments were done tactfully and had purpose. Nothing felt as thought it were merely being done to fill up time (something I find to be far too common in most k-dramas).
The characters were enjoyable - Dan Bi especially. She had very real worries and very real reactions, and her culture shock was adorable to watch in a way. But it was also great to watch her grow into someone who could face her problems head on, who was no longer as afraid of failure as she once was. Likewise, the King's character development through meeting Dan Bi was palpable and nice to see. He blossomed into someone better because of his relationship with her. The side characters were nice, although a little unmemorable. I wasn't as attached to them as I was to our leads.
Plot was confusing at times, but that may have been on account of the subs I had. Overall though it was fairly straight-forward, something you didn't have to wrack your brain to understand. A few little consistencies here and there - but again that may have been my subtitles. Really though, the plot wasn't all that important, the 2 hours of adorableness were more what I was focused on.
The ending is bittersweet, so if you're a fan of entirely happy endings than this drama isn't for you. Although, I think it's important to remember that Dan Bi is 18, she had a family and life in the future. Not everyone meets their soulmate at 18 and decides to stick with them. It was much nicer to watch these two simply grow together and find a young love; it never needed to last forever. However, the little twist at the end was nice and open-ended, and I did spend a bit of time afterwards contemplating what would have happened next.
Overall, give this adorable drama short a watch. It's 2 hours of your life that you won't regret spending.

Mini Scarlet Heart Ryeo: Fun + Romance + Time Travel
I first watched this drama more than 5 years ago and I forgot the details but I did remember it was a short and I really loved it. As I rewatch it today, few years older and more mature, I appreciate this drama special more.It's like a movie-length drama special but the plot is simple and interesting. A bit of humor, romance, historical and time-travel elements. I honestly wanted to watch more but at the same time, I feel like it was wrapped up so well that it already satisfied me.
I also didn't realize that I've known Ahn HyoSeop for years. I always thought he was a newbie.
If you came across this one, I can guarantee that this is a classic and it's something you wouldn't want to miss out on. I sometimes compare this to Scarlet Heart Ryeo, only shorter with less complications and heartbreak.

The story is about changing your view how you do anything if your life depends on it. The winking eunuch who stole the screen in Love in the Moonlight: the talented comedian actress Kim Seul-gi is the main star! Together with Yoon Doo-joon and Ahn Hyo-seop, they brings up real South Korean historical figures to live in this drama with tons of kudos on witty script, superb casting, great cinematic, and choreography. The music is well done: the upbeat "Fondant to You" by Kim Hyun-joong (Yoon Ji-Hu from Boys over Flowers) and the melancholic "Don't Go" by Jung Ji-chan. Overall: Brilliant!

Si peu de temps pour si tant d’amour
Un drama de 2 épisodes. 2 fois 60 minutes. Soit l’équivalent d’un long métrage. Le seul défaut de ce mini drama à mes yeux ? Le format trop court…Dan Bi est une lycéenne somme toute banale, elle n’est pas forcément jolie, et ne brille pas par une intelligence hors norme. Son niveau scolaire tire plutôt vers le bas ce qui aura tendance à la rendre nerveuse la veille de son examen de fin d’année.
Voilà notre petite étudiante en chemin, avec tout l’encouragement d’une mère qui le sait, vers un bien difficile moment.
Dan Bi, et je la comprend bien, rechigne et fuit. Fuir des chiffres honnis. Fuir des nombres dictateurs. On la retrouve, sous une pluie salvatrice, priant, psalmodiant à Qui ou Quoi veut bien l’entendre une solution, une cachette, un n’importe quoi qui pourrait bien la sauver. Certains, de ce que j’ai pu en lire, parlent de pouvoir. Mais point de ceci à mon humble avis. Je dirais que cette flaque d’eau représente bien un trou, cet endroit qui nous permet à toutes et tous de nous cacher illico presto lorsque tout va mal.
Dan Bi en traversant le temps, comme je l’envie, y rencontre de manière peu fortuite une personne loin d’être ordinaire, le roi Seojong le grand ! Pour qui s’intéresserait un peu à l’histoire de la Corée, SeoJong n’est autre que l’inventeur de l’écriture coréenne, le Hunmin Jeongeum, autrement dit le hangeul. C’est un alphabet qui devait remplacer le système chinois, trop complexe.
Alors oui, tout est romancé, tout est simplifié. Mais à vrais dire, nous passons 2 heures à sourire bêtement et à rire aux éclats, que demander de mieux, si ce n’est, il est vrai que l’Histoire soit respecté un minimum. Je n’ai pas le bonheur de m’être penchée sur l’Histoire de la Corée. Un jour, lorsque le 6ème aura la bonne idée de me laisser lire, je ferais surement quelques recherches sur ce petit pays si intéressant.
l’Histoire, sans être à la virgule prés de ce qu’on peut y lire sur Wikipédia, s’intéresse au balbutiement des inventions de l’époque, dont la mesure des pluies et la naissance de l’écriture hangeul. Sans entrer dans les détails, le scénario arrive à nous y impliquer et à nous donner envie d’en apprendre plus.
Mais revenons à Dan Bi et Seojong.
Rafraichissant et tellement drôle. Voilà ce qui me viendrait à l’esprit tout de suite. Nous passons la première heure à rire des déboires rencontrés par Dan Bi mais aussi par Seojong. Le choc futur/passé est attendrissant et nous nous amusons devant la soudaine aptitude de Dan Bi à enseigner des choses telles que Pythagore à Seojong. Leur complicité est magique et leur fou rire addictive.
La progression de la relation n’est ni lente, ni rapide. Elle est d’ailleurs tellement naturel qu’il nous paraît inconcevable que ce couple ne puisse finir ensemble…
Il m’est souvent arrivé de pester. Déjà fini ? Une suite ? tels que "Gu Family Book" ou "the three musketeers", nous rêvions qu’une fois, Oh une seule fois (en occultant "Dream High" ou les "reply") que ces coréen puissent nous pondre une saison 2, et ce mini drama n’y échappe pas. Son parcours sans faute en 2 épisodes était parfait….mais, je n’aurais pas dit non à 12 voire 16 épisodes…mais cela n’engage que mon avis bien sur.
Ah Kim Seul Gi….une actrice que j’ai découvert avec "Flower boy next door !" et que j’affectionne vraiment beaucoup. J’ai prié, les genoux infléchis et les bras secrètement levés afin de la voir un jour dans un rôle principal. Il m’était je l’avoue pénible de la voir en second rôle dans « Oh My Ghostness » ou frustrée dans « Surplus Princess »… Quel bonheur de la voir briller dans ce mini drama ( Et voilà pourquoi il aurait fallu plus que 2 épisodes!!!), car bien loin des standards de la beauté classique ou sensuelle qu’on nous impose, son grand sourire de vamp et ses yeux pétillants de joie apportent une intensité et une lumière provocante qui nous éblouirait presque. J’aime sa façon de jouer, toujours juste, de surjouer le ridicule mais qui amène tant de rires, sa voix haute perchée si particulière qui contient tellement de sensibilité. Une actrice impressionnante et qui nous aura encore une fois bluffée. Je suis fan. Totalement. Et je trépigne d’impatience de la voir encore, enfin, dans un rôle principal.
Yoon Du Jun est un « idol », il appartient au groupe Highlight. Il est donc un novice dans le domaine cinématographique. J’ai été agréablement surprise, ce qui est d’ailleurs étonnant vu le nombre de fois où de jeunes acteur/actrice ont pu me surprendre. Yoon Du Jun a su interpréter Seojong le grand avec brio et humour. La scène des multiplications avec Dan Bi restera épique en ce qui me concerne.
Les personnages secondaires, sans être transcendants, on retrouve d’ailleurs souvent les mêmes dans les rôles de ministre, sont sympathiques. Je pense notamment à la Reine So Hyeon et au garde du corps. J’ai trouvé dommage que ces deux personnages n’aient pu être développés en profondeur.
Un drama intelligent, drôle (très) et touchant, 2 heures que nous ne voyons pas passer, des acteurs qui ont su interpréter majestueusement leur rôle. Dois-je encore inciter à se lancer sans hésitation au visionnage de ce petit bijoux ?

Confesso que embora tenha sido um drama insistentemente recomendado pela minha querida irmã, resisti muito pra assistir, já que a sinopse e a capa não me chamaram a atenção logo de cara, principalmente quando percebi que se tratava de um drama de época, mas logo nos primeiros minutos fui convencida e simplesmente me rendi a ele.
Os protagonistas são muito envolventes, e a suas interações foram muito divertidas, o romance é uma graça, e o enredo é bem leve e descontraído, sem grandes complicações ou enrolações, a história foi direto ao ponto, o que deixou um gostinho de quero mais no final.

Não é serie, mas deveria ser!
Esse filme está dividido em duas partes, cada uma com 1 hora cada. Não é serie, não se engane... Porém, poderia ser!A história é uma delícia, me lembrou o anime InuYasha.
Garota adolescente, ruim nos estudos, foge no dia do enem. Tá chovendo, ela cai numa poça de água e vai parar na antiga Coreia, Joseon.
A trama é boa, achei o casal secundário meio chato.
A música é ruim. Em momentos que pedia uma música mais lenta, era adicionado uma música 'animada' que tirava o foco da cena.
Por fim, tem cenas lindas no final. A fotografia é incrivel.
Vale muito a pena. O final deixa nosso coração quentinho.
Recomendo.
