10/10 God, this is incredible, what kind of lakorn is this
10/10 God, this is incredible, what kind of lakorn is thisGod, this is incredible, what kind of lakorn is this, set in the first third of the 20th century, when the Japanese occupied Siam at the time. Read the description in the previous review by Barka, l' just emphasize that the story must have been invented and written by the devil himself. We are in a time when the world did not wish other people, we are in the time of a Chinese clan operating in the territory of Siam, and the intrigues are so terrible, so surprising and every ten minutes they turn in a way that you do not expect. Absolutely no boredom, grown-up, no school kids. I thought to myself, I'll take a look at the first part and then I'll probably wait for the translation to be completed, but somehow it's still not happening, and after the first part, which is such an introductory piece, I just took a look at the second part. But that was a mistake! There it started in such a way that ! devoured the series in three days. And that it is a pack, 17 parts of 70 to 75 minutes each! In addition to the intrigues and surprising plot twists, it is also a sky-high drama, mystical and sometimes even tragic (see the mushrooms), but that doesn't bother me, I also don't blame fairy tales for the story because they are partly fictional, everything was done so that the viewer, especially Thai, he didn't get bored. But on the other hand, beautiful visuals, a great theme tune and a song by NuNew that has 66 million views on YT and excellent acting in the Thai way. I was captivated by the beautiful sibling love, while the mothers scheming the ostopero, the younger brother, the brawler Yang, was every inch a symposus, the equally beautiful Jiu, who gradually fell in love with Thian, who was expected to succeed the clan leader, as well as both wives and one mistress the existing Song fruit and their two butler maids. A great experience for those who understand why it is filmed and made the way it is. The current rating on MDL 8.3 and IMDb 8.5 speaks for itself, who doesn't like Asian lakorns - I don't recommend it, others do!

10/10 One of the Best Korean Drama in 2022
10/10 One of the Best Korean Drama in 2022This drama is one of the best k-drama i've ever watch. I've seen thousands of drama out there and this one is for sure one of the best. I thought the story is going to be boring, too dark and cliché, but NO. Not at all. This drama will make you join the main characters on guessing who is the bad guy behind his misery. It has mistery that will not be solved in only one or two episodes but the whole season. But, it doesn't worry me because the story keeps getting interesting every episodes. It will not dissapoint people who enjoy crime show, mistery, romance and a little comedy.
It also has one of the best cinematography, plot, directing and acting.
All actors in this show are perfect for their role.
Especially, the male main actor Lee Jongsuk who portray a character Park Changho. His acting skill is so good. It's so satisfying to watch his acting.
I watch this show on Disney+. It's only available in selected regions, so i'm blessed that it's available in my country. It's really worth to watch.

10/10 Absolutely loving this series (edited 13/4/2020 to update)
10/10 Absolutely loving this series (edited13/4/2020 to update)
ETA: I finished the series a while back, and I was just a little tortured by the way it ended. If you've watched it too, you'll know what I mean. Basically I'm wishing for a season 2, but not with much hope. I still won't change my rating, because ! think this is a damn good show.
I feel it may be too soon to post this review, since 1 am still suffering through each week waiting for the next episodes to be released. Still, from the start this series hooked me in, and I'm absolutely impressed by the performances of the cast.
In particular I think Lee Seung-gi is doing a phenomenal job of portraying a heartbroken uncle. He kicks ass, as does Bae Suzy as Go Hae-ri. And ooooo those bad guys are BAD.
To summarise for now: it's action packed, and there is great chemistry between the two leads. Political intrigue and corruption mean that you're constantly raging against injustice, and cursing the bad dudes who you hope that karma will sort out quick smart. But there's also constant hope that good will prevail.
Every episode ends on a cliffhanger, so the sooner we get to see it all, the better!

10/10 Gyeongseong Creature
10/10 Gyeongseong CreatureSeason 1 It's such a tragic history of Korea while Korea was colonized by Japanese for 35 years from 1910 to 1945. It was painful to watch Gyeongseong Creature cuz it's based on true history but I am sure the reality was even brutal/ cruel.
The first episode of the show takes its time to build up the entire narrative, but once you let the period, the fantasy, and the premise in, you are in for a growling ride that you do not want to miss! The cinematography and director need to have mentions for 'Gyeongseong Creature'
Strong Performances: Both Park Seo-joon and Han So-hee deliver strong performances, particularly in the action scenes.
Overall: "Gyeongseong Creature" Season 1 is a captivating and suspenseful K-drama that successfully blends horror, mystery, and historical elements. While it has some minor flaws, its strengths lie in its unique premise, strong performances, and engaging plot, making it a worthwhile watch for fans of the genre.
Season 2 This series should have ended with season 1.
Pretty sure when this series was written it had only season one but Netflix being Netflix was like " ok now lets make season 2".
I personally am gonna forget that a season 2 even exists.

10/10 Highly anticipated drama
10/10 Highly anticipated dramaHan So-Hee didn't disappoint, again.
Experiments on humans were portrayed so good that 95% of the time I had to look away.
Characters are well-written and it's not easy to predict outcome.
Get ready for bunch of plot twists that will make your jaw drop.
On the other hand CGI was good but you can still tell that it's
CGI. So that's one of the things I didn't enjoy that much.
Anyway, drama is so good that I watched all 7 episodes in one breath.
Immediately after watching I came to give my rating, and l was astonished to see such low ratings. Most of the ratings are 1, and I bet those people didn't even watch the show.
And I'm guessing they were given by bunch of JK girlfriends that are jealous because Han Soo-Hee starred in their boyfriend's music video.
Don't let those small ratings to keep you away from this drama, it's better than most of the dramas that are currently on the air.
NVM. 10/10 now. Wow, It just keep getting better and better.

10/10 Karma
10/10 KarmaKarma" presents a complex narrative that intertwines the lives of its characters through themes of fate and consequence. While the series boasts strong performances and a thought-provoking plot.
This drama has only six episodes, but each one is so intense that I couldn't stop, that's why I binge-watched it. I love every single episode. The actors truly brought their roles to
life.
Each character has an intriguing story, and everyone is closely intertwined in unexpected twists. The title Karma perfectly captures the essence of the drama.
Storytelling, acting, suspense, background music, cinematography, pacing, and even its concise format-this drama is a perfect 10/10. I wholeheartedly urge you to watch Karma 2025, especially if this genre aligns with your interests or if you're looking to explore something new.

10/10 Bloodhound season 2 delivered everything I wanted
10/10 Bloodhound season 2 delivered everythingI wanted
I waited what felt like forever for Season 2 of Bloodhound & it was 100% worth the wait. This show is an absolute masterpiece. It has everything you want in a series like intense action, sharp writing, strong character development & suspense that keeps you hooked from the very first episode. It doesn't need romance, the story and characters are strong enough on their own.
I binge-watched the entire season in just a day and genuinely enjoyed every single episode. The performances are excellent, the twists are unpredictable & the pacing is perfect. For me, it's a solid 10/10.
Netflix, if you're listening..... we need Season 3 already!

10/10 Amazing show! Raid 2 Vibes!
10/10 Amazing show! Raid 2 Vibes!As a martial arts movie lover and someone who appreciates character development and story telling, this show is actually so good!
Must watch for anyone who loves something like the raid 2 or movies like that in general. Even though I'm not Korean but from the UK, I have really started to appreciate these amazing Korean shows they have been putting on Netflix.
Haven't been hooked to a show from the first episode in a while and this has done it. I can't wait for season 2! I hope they put they make a season 2 because it defo deserves it.
Even if they make a tournament style movie it would be cool!

10/10 JUST SUPERB!!!
10/10 JUST SUPERB!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!This drama is just amazing. I will say one of the best in this genre (fantasy). The fact that it's so unpredictable, cope with great scripts, amazing acting, that by itself make it a 10 out of 10 for me. Believe me, there is so much to its arsenal.
Smart, gritty, bloody, heart warming, heart wrenching, to name a few. Oh yeah let's assemble one of the most diverse and powerful casting I've seen so far, in a Korean fantasy show. That ladies and gents, is a recipe for an instant classic.
I've watched 100s kdrama, never seen anything quite like it.
So do yourself a favor, GO WATCH IT!!! And thank me later.

10/10 The writing, the directing, the acting - pure magic!
10/10 The writing, the directing, the acting - pure magic!This is the first time in a long time that I haven't been able to stop thinking about a show!
I'm a huge fan of silent storytelling, and this show is full of it!
So much of the storytelling and emotions are conveyed through subtle images and the actors' faces, rather than through words. The three leads are particularly good at this.
There are tons of cool fight scenes, but the quiet, still moments are some of my absolute favorites.
I've seen plenty of great big budget shows with casts full of high profile actors, but sometimes shows like this are even better, in my opinion. It's the magic of really great writing, directing, and acting.
A heartbreaking and beautiful show. Absolutely brilliant.

10/10 A Fantastic Action Thriller
10/10 A Fantastic Action ThrillerWhen it comes to action thrillers the plot somehow goes flat, however K-dramas never comprises with the storyline. Not only this show has brilliant action sequences, but also loads of emotions, and a strong plot that would keep you hooked till the end.
I am truly mesmerized to see how Korean Dramas are raising their bar with so many different contents this year, and My Name truly does the job well.
I watched the entire series in a day, and I just can't let it out of my head. Special mention to the actor (Han So Hee) who truly nailed the show, her hardwork was totally visible throughout. The other actors too did a great and made the series a fantastic watch and definitely made me cry at times.
Loved It!!! It's a Must-Watch!!!

10/10 So good
As a psychology practitioner, I see "Genie: Make a Wish" not just as a fantasy drama, but as a heartfelt reflection on humanity. The series beautifully conveys the importance of truly caring for children with mental health challenges - showing that they don't need pity, but consistent love, understanding, and support.What touched me the most was the powerful message that
"a child can be saved when everyone is involved." This aligns deeply with psychological principles of collective care and systemic support, reminding us that healing is never an individual journey - it flourishes when family, community, and society walk together.
Overall, "Genie: Make a Wish" is a warm, meaningful, and emotionally resonant drama. It not only entertains but also invites us to be more empathetic, mindful, and active in nurturing the mental well-being of every child.
