Log: 2023 [With Notes]

(DramaCool)       Total = 1 hr  56 min
Notes:    2 couples each have 1 saucy foreplay scene stopping at implied bed scene, but 2nd couple get a pretty long visually strong bed scene.

Ending - all leads go their own way.  

(DramaCool)       Total = 1 hr  39 min
Notes:   Missing the magic of the others.  The final end song very likable.

Ending - They get married & have 2 kids.

(DramaCool)       Total = 2 hr  3 min
Notes:   FL slapping ML's face looked more like domestic abuse.  Worried old guy @ tree was going to turn out to be ML of the future but luckily ML & FL meet up after 3 yr separation. Not sure how you wouldn't of seen this coming.  American music.

Ending - ML's aunt sets up a blind date lunch & they finally meet again.

(DramaCool)       Total = 2 hr  3 min
Notes:   SAD.  I cried.  Loved the supernatural element of the wind.  The giant hand, the kids that had requests before FL jumps, the 2 guys stuck in alley, all the pinwheels are my fav scenes.   My sassy girl as a sequel?.... but details don't match up. American songs.

Ending - Police officer lives after being shot & meets a new guy at train station via ex's spirit.

(DramaCool)       Total = 1 hr  42 min
Notes:   Same old story.  FL dresses as man to attend school.  She & ace student fall in love but childhood FL's friend won't let it happen.  Butterflies theme pretty but video quality bad.

Ending - Romeo & Juliet.  Buried together.

(Viki)       Avg Dur:  1 hr 11 min       Total = 9 hrs 28 min
Notes:   Liked the different locations & all the different games.  Lee Seung Gi with his wig on the boat, Shi bros dancing, down the sand hill, Ji bros matching outfits, the fire ash show some of my favs.  I would have taken a pick w/Lee Dong Hwi, I don't know the other guy.  Some of the outcomes seemed scripted like the end when no one wins the $.

(Viki)       Avg Dur:  30 min       Total = 12 hrs
Notes:   Felt longer than 12 hrs.  No trauma & drama & rivals were almost n/mentioning.  Disliked FL's immaturity, prudish behavior & overconfidence (ADHD?).  Sometimes she got on my nerves.  ML's & FL's parents especially the dad's meddling in kids' business pissed me off.  Loved ML's ability to show chemistry w/FL, he brought the heat.  FL not good at that, stillness lips.  7 kisses that increased in steaminess/munching.  2nd couple 1 kiss that was good.  2nd couple broke up & rekindled.  3rd couple's story dropped like a hot potato.  FL & her BF don't treat their men w/respect.  Child actors were very mesmerizing.

Ending - Adorable.  ML & FL married, had son.  Son is narrating his view on parents.  The leads are shown to have a very happy & healthy & intimate relationship.  "They let him watch cartoons & he gets to stay @ grandparent's place on weekends."

(AsianCrush)       Total = 2 hr  10 min
Notes:   Multiple storylines a bit confusing/disjointed.  Eddie Peng was fantastic as the Monkey King.  The black dog dressed in black shiny leather was a highlight too.  Special effects were really impressive/visually pleasing.

Ending - MK defeats astroblade & emperor, but his love interest, the bodyguard & the tinker all died.  1 became a god & next time will try to kill monkey king.

(Viki)       Total = 1 hr  39 min
Notes:   Martial Arts, Japanese, Chinese, comic book, romance all rolled into 1.  HighLow series w/a melding of a true story historical movie.  Some gore & 1 of the good guys dies.  Cassanova's girlfriend was the humor.  Wanted her girls to join fight.  

Ending - Japanese sister in face off w/ leader for revenge of the death of her brother.  She kills Japanese general responsible for reading eradication via kids.

(Viki)       Avg Dur:  50 min       Total = 10 hrs
Notes:   Thought revenge, but no.  Inkling of the ending to come but enough plot to throw doubt even to bitter end.  FL pretty but acting was n/good - same face all the time & no emotions.  Saucy scenes in ML's wet dreams seemed like a unique way to story tell.  Hot for teacher chemistry steamy but Japanese are masters. Disliked when ML turned from confident bad boy to a WUSS.   About 4 kisses & 1 implied bed scene.  No Ick factor for me even if bro/sis & age gap.  Not sure why?  Odd music that suited this drama well & was likable.

Ending - FL stabbed by teacher going for her student lover.  ML has O blood & FL's dad has AB so rumor dispelled / lovers not biologically related.  The mom was the culprit to start it.  FF 6 yrs FL visits HS boy turned college professor w/ a lunch box.

(Viki)       Avg Dur:  46 min       Total = 18 hrs 24 min
Notes:   Low angst.  Tidbits of humor.  Great couples chemistry main & 2nd leads.  About 6 hungry munching kisses spread out.  Candy kiss my fav. A moderate amount of sexual tension. Loved the practice dance scene.  FL didn't treat ML w/respect - she stayed over in hotel 1 night & another she missed dinner w/no apologies.  Kinda sad when ML went from alpha male to a WUSS.  FL's triangle crush came a bit late & was never really a contender.  Music was okay.

Ending -  ML pretends amnesia & he proposes 2nd time in a big fashion.  FL3 goes to USA w/ML's asst.  FL2 wins acting award & her ex-clubbing boyfriend is at home cheering for her.

(Amazon Prime)       Avg Dur:  65 min       Total = 17 hrs 20 min
Notes:   No angst romance. Twist of CEO in love w/ML was a good twist but he looked guilty from beginning so no surprise.  Not sure why but sound for lie & truth weren't different enough nor was blinker.  Didn't care for any of the character's except singer trying to make it.  2 very good warm soft munching kisses.  Liked the pop music but not the jazz.

Ending - ML proposes marriage to FL, FL's parents together running a restaurant, CEO in jail, wannabe girl idol bodyguard get's his wish, wannabe singer gets an album w/ML + they win an award.

(Tubi)         Total = 1 hr 50 min
Notes:    Lee Jong Suk stellar acting.  Cha Eun Woo (younger bro), Lee Min Ki (new dad) & Kim Seul Gi (reporter's wife) had very small parts but had incredible performances.  Only enough oxygen for 1/2 is a suffering choice!  The older bro wanted to switch string w/younger but rules were no trades. However, Leader almost broke rule w/ new dad officer.  If trades were allowed would anyone do so?  Less action & less focus on extraneous characters (more focus on characters in ship would have made this better.

Ending - ML & his family safe.  Older bro shot. Truth revealed to media & surviving cadets all met in uniform & officer w/ new son's grave.

(Amazon Prime)         Episodes: 8        Avg Dur:  27 min       Total = 3 hrs 36 min
Notes:    Story good.  Trading a bit complicated.  FL2 (Shen Qin) stole FL's (Shi Qi) face, but FL2 is actually FL's sister who stole Shen Qi's face.  The heat between leads was there I just didn't feel it that strongly.  How ML believed in FL was ribbon award worthy.  The poison makes you horny was a humor missed opportunity.  Tidbits of subtle humor were great.  Little girl great acting. Music really good

Ending - ML2 (suicide), FL2 (suicide), FL stuck w/FL2's face but lives happily ever after w/ML + 2 kids.

(Amazon Prime)         Episodes: 8        Avg Dur:  35 min       Total = 6 hrs 15 min
Notes:  Loved the intro.  ML spying on FL & then they start making out for about 1-2 min.  Unfortunately after that it just progressively got more draggy/boring.  A concubine is still a practice in this time period?  ML w/ his shirt off was pretty HOT.  Music - 1 song okay but most of the time too loud & used too much.  

Ending - parents vindicated, FL going back to school, ML follows her onto train. They both confessed - mutual love.

(Viki)         Avg Dur:  35 min       Total = 4 hrs 40 min
Notes:   Acting & chemistry of leads was pure fire.  A bed scene, a car scene (think titanic) & lots of munching kisses + sexual tension wrapped in a soap opera style story.  FL's family killed. Bomb was his but it was triggered before he could disarm it. Wasn't a fan of FL2 the dangerous brat.   I wanted ML2 to stay innocent.  1st amnesia/wakeup ML makes FL suffer as maid, including killing their kid.  2nd amnesia/wake up he changes, but FL shoots him.  Music good.  

Ending - ML, FL, & ML2 all are shot laying on floor of church.  FF 2 yrs.  ML soldier & FL nurse meet by chance @ war site...maybe?  Does FL know ML not the real family killer?

(Dramacool)         Avg Dur:  60 min       Total = 8 hrs 
Notes:   So many things irked me -  FL always lied, was super immature, was a prude that let ML treat her horribly & her communication was zero.  ML's parents selfish - asked FL to mend relationship when their son is a douchebag.  FL chose bad boy after all he did WTF!  ML2 would have been a better choice.

(Dramacool)         Total = 1 hr 52 min
Notes:   Very ordinary movie.  Like a documentary on a real-life relationship.  Broke-up 2x & at end of movie they were becoming a couple for the 3rd time.  A volatile relationship. Wasn't a fan of FL.  

(Dramacool)         Total = 3 hr 57 min
Notes:   Bizarre, violent & sexual charged.  Full of boners & panty pics with fake blood spurting out.  This wasn't my cup of tea, however the ML was endearing. FL2 psycho-ness caused me angry frustration.  Strangely it was long but the drag felt was limited.

(Dramacool)         Total = 1 hr 38 min
Notes:  Documentary w/amazing scenic views. The wolf coat with the eyes sewn shut brought me to tears.  The poachers made me feel fear, disgust & shear angry hatred.  Loved how FL called the wolf her son & left her greed @ the door to give her son freedom.  The ML had to be reminded.  The howling the leads did was very amazing too.

(Dramacool)         Total = 1 hr 54 min
Notes:   Characters seemed a bit overzealous about saving all the animals - ML2 tries to kill himself, & ML1 doesn't want to recognize the law.  Lots of adorable dogs & cats.  Pics during credits are the best.

(Dramacool)         Total = 1 hr 42 min
Notes:   The eye color of vampires was pretty - more blue than violet. ML who sings has a good voice.  Glad I watched the credits - a few additional scenes of stories.  The vamp baby adorable.

Blazing Transfer Students
(Netflix)         Avg Dur:  25 min       Total = 3 hrs 20 min
Notes:  Quirky & imaginative.  Loved the tiny turtle.   The older guy as the man's son who came to the school was a really good twist since I truly believed 1 of the 7 boys was the principal's son.  Music pretty good.

(Netflix)         Total = 1 hr 45 min
Notes:   {English Dubbed}  The idea of it was interesting, but wasn't sold on characters, acting, & oddness of story.  In the end Cinderella gets arrested for murder, hairdresser had a weird long hair fetish, & prince ends up w/a girl he previously liked who now has a scar on her face.

(Viki)         Avg Dur:  15 min       Total = 2 hrs 30 min
Notes:    Liked the FL character & actress.  FL & ML2 cute together.  FL washing ML2's face was adorable.  It looked like ML was still in love w/ his ex & FL was just a rebound girl.

(Dramacool)         Avg Dur:  60 min       Total = 16 hrs 
Notes:   Acting pretty good by all.  A mix of characters w/ "it" factor & a handful that I wasn't sure why they were there.  No romance which I was sad about but understood the story's focus on the craziness.  The language perplexed me (a Korean accent?) Needed to be 12 episodes. I won't watch sequel.

Ending pained me - cult mostly eradicated, but FL's dad & the lady apostle live to "cult"erize new members.  Leader burned to death, FL free.

(Dramacool)         Total = 2 hr 10 min
Notes:   Wasn't sold on FL.  Chemistry was like friendzone.  

Ending - ML calls radio station after a yr looking for FL & she is crying while listening.  We don't know if they get back together.

(Dramacool)         Total = 1 hr 45 min
Notes:   ML acting was really good.  Loved the relationship between the leads.   ML character hiding behind FL's backpack while going to school in the morning was my favorite scene.

(Dramacool)         Total = 2 hr 18 min
Notes:    CEO & maid made me uncomfortable due to age gap.  Enjoyed suicide guest+wake up call girl, Door porter+old flame, swimmer+ice skater, hotel employee+blind dater Dr.

(Dramacool)         Total = 1 hr 50 min
Notes:   Same 2 leads but 2 more important characters.  The gambling addict whose story wasn't interesting & the bad bounty hunter who was attractive.  3rd movie should be coming out this year.

(Dramacool)         Total = 1 hr 57 min
Notes:   Great CGI& cinematography.  Has a pretty big musical element to it.  FL is the bad ass & ML is the goof.  

(Netflix)         Avg Dur:  1 hr 20 min       Total = 21 hrs 20 min
Notes:   Chemistry of leads A+.  6 munching blush worthy kisses & a few adorable repeating pecks.  Favs - On the counter & in the pool, during blackout screen writers missed an opportunity.  ML oozed steaminess toward FL.  Healthy friend & love relationships, no trauma & drama. ML says WTF in English.  Actress who played ML's sis seemed too old; thought she was his stepmom for a while.  Flight attendant's love interest not as much "it" factor.  Kinda wanted ML3 to dump her husband & end up w/ ML's assistant.  Thailand beautiful. Music at its best during kiss scenes.

Ending - Leads getting married.

(Viki)         Avg Dur:  1 hr 20 min       Total = 66 hrs 40 min
Notes:  Addictive. ML, Ahn Jae Hyun's crying scene as he removes his wedding ring is amazing. On the beach kiss w/ munching was very realistic. FL looked too anorexic to be pregnant. Find FL's ex intriguing/complex.  Actor reminds me of Ji Soo. Song @ end of episodes 1 -30 very enjoyable. Episodes 31-42 seem a bit draggy. No heat between leads, seemed like old married couple especially during pajama scenes. All the phone calls/over communication began to get on my nerves.  FL2's immature mom & FL's overbearing mom drove me insane. Love the theme song!

Ending - Leads marry, ML2 gives up paternity.

(Netflix)         Avg Dur:  55 min       Total = 7 hrs 20 min
Notes:   {English}  Almost all actors American.  Cinematography amazing- favs were pedestal rock island in ocean, sunset on waters edge, & fish mouth bar.  

Ending - Crew on their way to the Grand line so most likely a sequel?  

(Viki)         Avg Dur:  60 min       Total = 16 hrs
Notes:   Loved OK Taec Yeon's facial expressions.  FL's character unlikable - bitched ML out for having his friends over & bitched her dad out for leaving.  Strangely I like the actress though.  Story started at a 9 but then dragged about halfway.  No explanation on why FL2 has the face of ML's 1st love, but FL is the 1st love reincarnated.  Love between ML & FL2 felt lukewarm at best not the burning love it was supposed to be.  Slow build of Love between leads was good.  2 semi-okay pressed lip kisses.  ML2, Catman, villain, FL's dad, butcher shop lady, tailor, 2 guests all had no "it" factor/ annoyed me.  Music was okay.

Ending - Did ML2 drink ML's blood? Did FL see ML on balcony for real, ghost or her imagination?  

(Dramacool)         Total = 1 hr 51 min
Notes:   ML very tall.  Another bullying the quiet introverted girl.  Liked the message though, popular boy helps girl, but she helps him too.

(Dramacool)         Total = 1 hr 30 min
Notes:   Humor was sorta funny.  Liked the idea of ideal man on paper vs what the heart desires.   FL's sexy dance scene had me feeling a bit uncomfortable for some reason. Subtitles were a bit to fast to read, had to pause a lot.

(Dramacool)         Total = 2 hrs 5 min
Notes:   Disliked FL character & actress a lot.  Same overused story of working ice queen becoming a mom which makes her realize what she is missing.  

Ending - she returns to her body & meets the ex-family on a plane,

(Dramacool)          Avg Dur: 15 min        Total = 2 hr 30 min
Notes:   Right amount of rom com, seriousness, romance etc.  Loved both actors & characters.  Loved concept of hiring a "doppelganger" to full a bucket list item.  It stayed light despite the heavy topic of cancer & her inevitable death at end.  Liked that FL told ML up front she was sick.  Thought of a different ending for ML in a remake ...ML gets surgery & ends up looking like his doppelganger for real.  Example - Kim Ji Hun as ML & after surgery he ends up looking like Nam Joo Hyuk (his real life doppelganger).  Subtitles a bit non-sensical.

Homages:  Werewolf Boy / Goblin / Decents of the Sun / Secret Garden / Love Rain / Glorious Temptation

Ending:  FL dies

(Dramacool)          Avg Dur: 35 min        Total = 3 hr 30 min
Notes:    A bit sad - I got teary.  Adorable puppy.  Thought actors that played EMS driver & ML should have been switched?  Confused about what driver's father did as a grim reaper when FL died the first time.  In hospital why wasn't anyone shocked that a dead girl was alive?  Why did dead girl come out of character to be spiteful to distraught truck driver by saying she would never forgive him?  FL reminded me of Anne Hathaway & FL in "The Real Has Come."  Music was so so - loved the words but melody very so so.  

Ending - FL dies again 7 ys later. ML has their son to keep him company.

(Dramacool)          Avg Dur: 20 min        Total = 1 hr 20 min
Notes:   Loved to chemistry between leads many quick kisses & 1 coming in for the kill kiss that landed some heat.  FL seemed a bit older than ML which did bother me a bit.  ML dropped FL like a hot potato 2x in her lifetime, so she must really love ML in order to stay w/him.  Lee Gi Kwang's smile melted me continuously.

Ending - They broke up....but wait...no they didn't......yes they did.

(Dramacool)         Total = 31 min
Notes:   FL acting was amazing, not sure how she kept her eye twisted.  Kiss at end was super cute & awkward.  They hadn't known each other very long.  Annoying when other actors comment on hotness of male lead. Like he hasn't heard that a million times!

Ending - Party & leads kiss in front of club members at gallery.

(Dramacool)         Total = 1 hrs 30 min
Notes:   Starts w/ a heavy girl who is a diehard fan of BL Manga & she turns into a beauty queen. Some gay related content - 2 boys kiss at end & FL dances w/ a theatre girl.  No real connection w/ any of them was kinda annoying.  Drama is part musical.

(Dramacool)         Total = 1 hrs 52 min
Notes:   Nothing really stands out, all just meh.  

Ending predictable.  A hole is made in the wall & the leads mesh their lives together. 

(Dramacool)         Avg Dur: 11 min        Total = 2 hrs 34 min
Notes:   Food changing your personality briefly is kinda interesting.  Leads a bit too young looking for the workplace. If that was a love rival, I'm Santa clause.  He says he likes her, but no pursuit. Leads press lip kiss about 4 times, sorta awkward.

(Dramacool)         Avg Dur: 10 min        Total = 3 hrs 30 min
Notes:   FL aggressively pursuing a guy out of her league kinda rubbed me the wrong way at times.  Also kinda wished she ended up w/ her longtime friend, but FL ending up w/the hot ML was okay.  Leads - 1 pressed lip kiss & 1 kiss w/ munchies at end.  Wanted more jealousy/denying his love screentime.  Rival only says I like her, no pursuit.

(Dramacool)         Total = 2 hrs 14 min
Notes:   1st half interesting & heterosexual, 2nd half totally weird & lesbian.  FL totally scammed by a mysterious guy who is a psycho in my opinion.  

Ending - FL in new well-off neighborhood/apt. FL oblivious that break-up & death buddy were his doing.  

(Dramacool)         Avg Dur: 15 min        Total = 1 hrs 45 min
Notes:   Had a hard time differentiating between some of the leads.  It seems like in all dramas/movies the character that needs the makeover is already pretty.  You can see them clearly. This is no exception.  Loved the music.  The security guard boss really brought the heat.

Ending - FL recruits a new client by leaving the suitcase in front of wall.

(Dramacool)         Avg Dur: 15 min        Total = 2 hrs 30 min
Notes:   1 pressed lip kiss toward end.  Nothing new or interesting all cliches. Events can't change only the person it happens to.    

Ending - ML saves FL from death & several yrs later he wakes up from his coma.

(Dramacool)         Avg Dur: 1 hr        Total = 4 hrs
Notes:   Could feel the heat from ML when trying to & finally land a kiss. ML's smile kept melting me.  Fav scenes were morning wood & ML doing a pod cast on roof/they draw on each others face w/lipstick.  ML actor wrote & sang OST for this drama.

(Viki)         Avg Dur:  30 min       Total = 4 hrs 
Notes:   This was disturbing to me.  The non serious way rape, attempted rape, female trafficking, secret voyeur videotaping & bagging girls for competitive purposes just didn't sit well with me.  

(Dramacool)         Total = 2 hrs 14 min
Notes:   Children actors amazing.  All I have to say is a drunken "accident" like drowning in a river could happen when he get's out of prison.  Heavy subject executed in a very tasteful way.  Inspired by the real events of the "Cho Doo Soon" case that happened in December 2008. 

(Dramacool)         Total = 2 hrs 
Notes:   Leads had good chemistry.  Cliche but good.  Reminded me of Hallmark channel type movies, but Asian style.

(Dramacool)         Total = 2 hrs 14 min
Notes:   A musical.  Don't care for that style of music. The love story was interesting.  Some brief backside nudity.  Video quality super poor - so sad for all that wasted filmed landscape scenery.

(Viki)         Avg Dur:  20 min       Total = 2 hrs 40 min
Notes:    Loved this couple together - chemistry between leads.  She would tell him what to do and he would just do it.  1 rape scene & 1 scene mom tries to commit suicide w/daughter.   I didn't think the bird would make it, but brother kicking cage was disturbing.  Heavy serious topics didn't feel so heavy. ML really good acting/character...kinda his typecast though. Narrated monologues from both leads.  Comments compared it to "It's the End of the F***ing World" on Netflix.

(Tubi)         Total = 2 hrs 3 min
Notes:     Movie inspired by real-life Korean serial killer Yoo Young-chul, he killed 21 people.  Incompetent police force & shady ex-cop bothered me.  Abandoned cars so close to house how could they miss?  Ex-cop was neither good nor bad, I wanted him to be all good.  Foolishly I believed the mom would make it.  Kim Yoo Jung is sooo little in this.  I am surprised her parents let her in this type of movie.

(Netflix)         Avg Dur:  1 hr 10 min       Total = 14 hrs 
Notes:   Story didn't seem as strong & seemed to have more showboating than season 1?  Kang Ki Young gets a 10/10 though...he's amazing!  New crew member had same hair as leader which bothered me.  Eye patch demon actress had brief moments of over acting.  CGI/imagery was stunning. Music by Cravity pretty good.

Ending - ML goes abroad for counter education but returns a few years later.

(Dramacool)         Avg Dur:  60 min       Total = 14 hrs 
Notes:   ML, Go Soo w/ long hair & better acting.  NAF of character/actors:   ML's daughter, Informant cop, & Supermarket Lady's guy pal.  Teary eyed a few times. 

Ending- Threads w/out knots & cliffhangers:  Super bad guy escapes custody, ML2 follows ghost into basement, hacker girl can now see ghosts & is following a bookbag trail, Supermarket Lady, little girl & teacher stories not finished.  Cliffhanger = Final scene ML having dream of carousel & a Yim Si Won greets him. 

(Dramacool)          Total = 2 hr  4 Min
Notes:    Liked American version better.  Didn't care for actors or their characters.  New what was coming so started non-stop ugly crying about 15 min before ending.  Fav part was pic of ALL the dogs used in film shown at the end during the rolling of credits. True story about the Akita dog named Hachikō who lived in Japan 1923-1935.

(YouTube)          Total = 1 hr  51 Min
Notes:   In black & white which I really enjoyed & it's been remastered by the Cinema Foundation, so video quality was very good, but that was about it.  Pretty progressive, little girl w/ a disability requiring crutches.  

Ending odd - nobody really died, just a daydream?

(Dramacool)          Total = 1 hr  50 Min
Notes:   Animals should be warned this is a farmers perspective piece w/ a visit to the "meat packing district.".  What he buys is the pig to eat, not save it?

(Dramacool)          Total = 2 hr  
Notes:   This seemed to be more BL inspired than I expected.  Very cliche but liked all the actors. The subtitles were too fast & somewhat nonsensical.  Loved the name they gave FL - Persimmon.  

(Dramacool)          Total = 1 hr 54 min 
Notes:   Loved the turtle & ML's acting! Basically same story except ML & FL switched - ML in past & FL in future.  Liked how FL used words not invented yet which confused ML (Tween/BFF).  FL's crush & friend in hospital love storyline in original version a bit stronger.  Reason lead gave up crush developed more in this version.  All version's BF stealing crush away is a dirty dog move.  

(Dramacool)          Total = 1 hr 51 min 
Notes:   This was interesting.  Anticipated BF & FL's crush ending up together + ML being their son.  After FL found out her crush ended up w/her BF she could have chosen to change that but did not.  Luckily the relationship between the 20 yr age gapped leads was friendship not love.  Video quality kinda bad. A shame because the fish tank scenes could have really benefitted.

(Dramacool)          Total = 1 hr 57 min 
Notes:   True story.  Slow.  Real student went to Columbia.  The subtitles were totally non-sensical.  

Eding - Happy. FL gets into desired ivy school.

(Dramacool)          Total = 2 hr 1 min 
Notes:   Interesting in beginning then super slow w/garden univ. student.  Thought storyline would be roommates fall in love...nope...he indirectly kills a kitten & puts FL in jail, that was shocking!  Knew he was asking for $ so she wouldn't leave.   FL pretty. Video quality poor - faces not discernable.

Ending was weird - he watches her leave for her next town after riding his bike like a bat outta hell. 

(Dramacool)          Total = 1 hr 50 min 
Notes:   So many surprises & it was kinda interesting.  2 bros in car accident on same day/time.  I believed they had switched bodies, but wait no.  Younger bro tricked FL due to his lust.  The friend finds the original broken necklace. Older bro dies after being in coma. 1 brief table sex (FL/husband) & one long mostly kissing bed scene (FL/young bro).

Ending - Older bro dies.  ML must stay in role of older bro because FL never wants to acknowledge ML's as himself as punishment for pretending to be her husband too get close to her. FL is pregnant.

(Dramacool)          Total = 2 hr 25 min 
Notes:   A bit long/draggy but acting was really good.  I did not cry, but subject matter is very sad.  A STRONG LOVE story. A son should not have to bail his mom out of debt, nor should his wife insist he do! Felt really bad for ML, he can't seem to get an emotional break.  FL abandons all for a treatment facility, but ML tracks her down.

Ending - A brief moment FL remembers her husband & a final car ride.

(Dramacool)          Total = 1 hr 55 min 
Notes:   3 sex scenes & 1 almost sex scene all w/ tamed nudity.  I think love was there even w/ a bit of obsession for each other.  

Ending - ML stays w/ his family & FL separated from lover & her family.

(Dramacool)         Avg Dur:  45 min       Total = 4 hrs 30 min
Notes:    Bummer no part 1 recap.  CGI top notch. Cha Eun Woo w/ illuminated blue eyes, so hot!  Sung Joon the evil bro kept reminding me of Baron Chen.  A lot less Cha Eun Woo & too much Grandma.  

Ending - Opening = left evidence for a sequel w/ evil cult leader, FL (dagger vibrates), orphan (approached by cult leader) teen, & priest (tapestry image).

(Dramacool)          Total = 1 hr 45 min 
Notes:   More on the naughty scale than erotic.  Kinda cute story.  Wish it had more of a fantasy element like the ML is a repenting ghost or fallen angel trying to earn wings. ML does 3 sisters & ends up w/ no one.  Married sis's jealousy irked me.

Ending - ML in his car smirking at a new location.

(Dramacool)          Total = 1 hr 40 min 
Notes:   1st movie way better.  The S&M portions made me very uncomfortable.  3 nude sex scenes. The ending was so sad.  The gigolo was a truly good guy & I wanted him to find happiness.  English subtitles on top of other language subtitles, so very hard to read.

Ending - Tragic/sad. ML shot & killed.

(Dramacool)          Total = 1 hr 58 min 
Notes:   The stalker like behavior from the ML as FL rejected him half-heartedly was a bit uncomfortable.  

Ending - FL accuses him of rape, he loses his job & she then meets up w/him & they reconcile.

Notes:     {English Dubbed}   CGI was pretty good but story didn't really make sense to me.  The meshing of the real world being influenced by alternate world wasn't really evident.

(Dramacool)          Total = 1 hr 53 min 
Notes:     An innocent baby-faced ML w/ a butt fetish that FL was totally fine w/.  As a hot male idol I wasn't buying it.  FL has pretty eyes & lashes.  Her face was good for seeing expression.  Video quality kinda bad.

(Dramacool)          Total = 2 hr 20 min 
Notes:     This hasn't aged well. All the beautiful cinematography cheapened by time / poor video quality.  FL actress was really good but couldn't connect w any of the MLs.  When leads visited abandoned house it gave me "The Notebook" vibes.

Notes:   Prequel to "The Black Devil & White Prince."  Should've seen this one first, but saw sequel first.

(Dramacool)          Total = 1 hr 50 min 
Notes:     Sad, I cried.  Not a fan of ML actor but liked him a lot in this movie.  D.O. stole the show, his blind acting was amazing.

(Dramacool)          Total = 1 hr 56 min 
Notes:   ML & FL look alike.  Like ML is FL's younger bro. ML acting was top notch.  ML character is adorable.  ML2 would have been good w/ FL too.  Liked both, but she ended up w/training chef.

(Dramacool)          Total = 1 hr 50 min 
Notes:   Lots of male celebrities. Chemistry pretty good. No kissing.  Super cute heavyset lady after the sly marriage compatibility reader.

(Dramacool)          Total = 1 hr 54 min 
Notes:   Cliche story w/ opening bang...boy band member commits suicide on stage at concert.  FL looked too old for ML, but her talking voice mesmerizing. Music was okay. Rival band was disbanded U-Kiss.  Main band random actors/singers.  Video quality poor.

(Dramacool)          Total = 2 hr 9 min 
Notes:   This should come w/ a suicide hotline phone #.  Thank god for HS girl crushes.   Can't even fathom the devastation from 2011 earthquake, tsunami & nuclear reactors meltdown.  Video quality super poor.  Wasn't able to see emotions on actors' faces.

Love of Sage
(Dramacool)         Avg Dur: 15 min       Total = 3 hr 20 min
Notes:   Yuck.  Hate all characters.  FL grooms a baby to be her lover when he becomes adult & lets FL2 have what she wants (why?).  FL2 wants everything FL has & takes it.  FL2's husband stays mum about his conniving wench wife.  Son n/angry at all he was used? 

 Ending - FL2 tries to kill FL & ends up dying, FL ends up totally paralyzed, but we see her smirk so maybe not totally?  FL & young boy together.

(Dramacool)         Avg Dur: 15 min       Total = 1 hr 54 min
Notes:   Nothing to get me invested in story.  Lee Je Hoon's character did not seem different from his others.  Romance between grave robber & asst as side story was weak.  Was surprised by twist @ end where the collection had already been stolen.

(Dramacool)         Avg Dur: 15 min       Total = 1 hr
Notes:   The cousin never had a chance.  Translation issue...really her cousin? if yes eeewww.  Step bro could have been a love rival too, glad that storyline never used.  

(Dramacool)          Total = 1 hr 46 min 
Notes:   Good looking ML's w/ good English.  FL quite pretty.  The hints were so obvious, so assist as the dad wasn't a surprise at all.  

(Dramacool)          Total = 1 hr 45 min 
Notes:   The men thinking videoing sex act w/out FL's consent & she has a kid is despicable.   The nonchalant way the men approached this was frightening.  Court case interesting.  ML won custody due to proof of FL sperm stealing w/condom as evidence.  Traditional custody cases favor moms, just like America. Video quality poor.

(Dramacool)          Total = 1 hr 30 min 
Notes:   A lot of quick panned shots of cats, wished the movie showed them more realistically doing things.  Fav scene 2 guys turned to cats when FL dressed up & then tussled upstairs.  Video quality so bad missed a lot of the story because couldn't read subtitles.

(Dramacool)          Total = 1 hr 51 min 
Notes:   Tame sex scenes.  Kinda boring storyline.  

Ending FL has to give her eyesight to ML.  In the end they both love each other.

(Dramacool)          Total = 1 hrs 21 min 
Notes:   5 couples & their first sexual encounter.  Cute idea & tasteful illusion sex created.  Nudity was brief & only shown as a movie that characters watched at theatre.  All the subtitles were gibberish.

(Dramacool)          Total = 2 hrs 10 min 
Notes:   The best humor was in the first 10 min.  Liked all the actors. Story seemed different even though hiring a con artist to con a con artist/ex-lover is nothing new.

(Dramacool)          Total = 1 hr 32 min 
Notes:   60% of view was from cell phone looking out at FL.  Actress not skilled enough for this role.  Had her back to camera a lot as well.  It was kinda boring.

(Dramacool)          Total = 1 hr 57 min 
Notes:   None of the charm the drama had.   FL said she loved to sing, but character always looked sad/never cheerful while singing.  ML kissed FL 3 times.  Romance just seemed off.   

Ending - weird ending.  ML on his way to London stopped to pick up his guitar from FL.  As she walks away he grabs/kisses her. 

(Dramacool)         Avg Dur: 54 min       Total = 9 hrs 
Notes:   Interesting concept of switching partners to determine compatibility. Liked characters & most actors. The photographer & suicide girl stole the show to me.  Biggest twist married lady looking for a sperm donor.  Psych gay & the sperm donor not a surprise.  Liked all the couples in end.  Bangles "Eternal Flame."  Some of the humor lost on "American" me.  Yay Panda.

(Dramacool)         Avg Dur: 36 min       Total = 6 hrs 36 min
Notes:   Unique story.  FL's stupidity drove me insane.  Very focused on fight between human kindness & human evil.  Drama cool's episode list messed up...has 13 episodes.  Video quality super poor.

(Netflix)         Avg Dur: 60 min       Total = 7 hrs 
Notes:   Started out interesting but violence & heavy female loaded cast turned me off.  Acting was very good.

(Dramacool)          Total = 1 hr 59 min 
Notes:  Liked FL actress - adorable button nose.  Her not knowing what love is was believable & n/annoying.  ML2 seemed like the ML & I thought she would pick him, but to my suprise / delight FL picked her classmate.  My heart melted when ML said "I don't know why, but for me FL is the only one there is, there is no other"

(Dramacool)          Total = 1 hr 56 min 
Notes:   Supposed to be an artistic message kinda movie.  Air doll finds a heart but it leads to loneliness like so many other humans.  Humans are discardable trash at death too. A couple of under the sheets sex scenes.  Focus was on FL's nudity but to highlight her beauty. Video quality pretty bad.

(Dramacool)          Total = 1 hr 58 min 
Notes:   Best horror romance I've ever seen. The humor & chemistry between actors is amazing.  Loved that ghost & hubby stayed together w/baby. Yes baby is dead too.
