I have never been this obsessed over a Kdrama, and I rarely give a perfect 10 to any drama, I always find flaws. All the right ingredients are already in: thriller, tragedy, suspense, romance. Each episode glued me to the seat and I couldn't stop watching. YouTube platform is here for the blame as it was the one who filled my feed with videos of the series, at first I wasn't sure I want to watch it, but it captivated me more and more and it took me less then 2 days to finish it. It's the first Kdrama I see with Seo In Guk but he gave such an amazing performance and had an excellent chemistry with Jung So Min, its really rare to see it in Kdrama series. To summarize it I will say it that it was EPIC.

I really liked the overall story and the main male character was well written and played.
I don't think there was good chemistry between the two main characters, whether it was because of the actors who didn't have good chemistry or it was because the director didn't give enough instructions, but I think they could convey the story better.
I won't rewatch it, same as all korean series except for one, I don't believe there is a value here to rewatch it. Its a story that needs to be told only once, in the second time I think my rating will be less attractive then now.
The OST wasn't good enough either I didn't have even one song I can listen to it over and over, the same as it was in Scarlet Heart.

Although it only have 12 episodes, I didn't feel like they were rush it. The series contained all the right ingredients for the ideal show and it got me hooked up from the first episode, it has no too many bureaucracy and not too many lovey-dovey scenes just the prefect amount. I watched 'Are you human' about an AI falling in love with a human, but it didn't feel right, I didn't like that show, but here it felt real, maybe because the bottom line was that an AI can never be a replacement for human contact.
The chemistry between the two main actors felt real and the male lead felt like an actual human being (unlike other series, where I felt that the male lead is over the top). Netflix Kdrama are so different from the regular Kdrama and its a good change, I hope they will have more series like that.

The only reason it took me more than one weekend to finish it was that I didn't want it to end, it was a great show, with the correct amount of over cuteness and the correct amount of love. There are a lot of good review to the show, but the reason I started it was because of the actor, after finishing 'who are you' I just wanted to see more shows he is in and then I found out the show is broadcasting again, it was a delight to watch it, the first time the show was broadcast I didn't want to watch it because I don't like sports and I didn't think it will appeal to me, but I was wrong, it was great, highly recommended.

The lying game is an american book series and a tv series which I watched a few years back, and I couldn't help but notice the similarity between the lying game and who are you: school 2015. The basic story is so much alike, the difference lies in the culture in which the series airs. While the american culture is more provocative, the korean one is very shy and stayed loyal to the rules that usually applied in the korean series, such as no kisses in high school series.
Even though its prohibit, you can feel the tension build in every episode and its very hard to stop watching.
The chemistry between the main characters is good and its a very hard to guess who she will choose, unfortunately since the two series are very much alike I already knew what will happen in the general story.
OST - I really like the theme song and it will defiantly goes into my playlist.

My first Kdrama with Lee Jong Suk as leading actor and it was great. Since then I watched a few more Kdrama with him as a leading role as he knows how to pick a great drama. It took me a while to be engaged with the story, the beginning was a little slow. But once the show got back to the present it started to be good and it hooked me till the end. The only flaw for me here is the female leading role, Park Shin Hye might be a great actress but in every series with her as leading role (the heirs for example) I couldn't relate to her, she has some kind of distance when she acts and its hard for me to empathized with the character.

Healer was my first Kdrama for the current round, I had rounds before with Japanese and Korean dramas, but this time I think its here to stay. Healer was the happy cause my friend was recommended me to see it, it was engaging at the very first episode seasoning with action, mystery and romance. The main lead, Ji Chang Wook, was excellent, his female lead Park Min Young was so so in this Kdrama. The chemistry was a little forced and I'm not sure who needs to be blame here. The plot was full with action from the right kind and not too force, Kdrama should be more like the Healer.

I love it when romance is the side story and there is more in the drama then a boy fell for a girl. The story contains action, fantasy and romance, and can be easily defined as romantic drama but its not. It was one of the first series I watched, a friend recommended it and I was skeptic about it, but it was really engaging and I wanted to watch it in one time, but the long episodes made me take the time. The last few episodes weren't as engage as the first ones, and it took a while to finish the series. Jung So Min and Jung Yoo Jin gave good performance, I didn't like Hong Bin role at this time.
