This is not your typical k drama with a fairy tale romance. This is about 4 couples living in different apartments in the same building. There is one common thing among these couples :they aren't married, but living together. The day to day to activities of these couples are described in this drama.

I liked it because of the ordinary story. Yes it is the story of ordinary people and that makes this extraordinary. Day to day life of ordinary people portrayed realistically is what made me like this drama.

The actors have used more or less their real names which gives a realistic touch to the story. The BL touch of Joon jae and Takuya made it more interesting for me. Honestly, I watched this drama for Joon Jae and Takuya. Takuya and Joon jae deserved more screen time. If you haven't watched it already, give it a try!

This is not your kawaii high-school lovers drama. This is all about dark romance stuff. If you are a light hearted rom com person, then this may not be the one for you. It has some adult scene where the characters are seen in underwear and stuff but that is needed for this story. It has hetero love and lesbian love.

The story is about two students who has unrequited love for their teachers. How they confide in and console each other while perfectly understanding and accepting each other's situation is portrayed here. It is twisted on many levels, yes. But that only makes the drama more interesting.

Kudos to the high-school student actors who handled the depth of the characters brilliantly and naturally. Not only them, I must say all the actors involved did justice to their characters.

I liked the twisted way the unrequited love was presented in this story. I loved this story and loved this drama. If you find the overused happy ending high school romance theme boring, then this may be the drama for you.

It has dark romance, slice of life, Drama. If you like something along those lines, I would definitely recommend this drama!

Note: I have not watched the anime, hence can't compare the two.

Everything happens around this Onmyouji. The shop is the center of the story. Loved it because of the mysticism.

Onmyouji uses his fortune telling ability to solve the life problems the people around him faces. Whoever comes to the shop for a fortune reading, he and his assistant tries to solve their problem through a practical psychological approach for a fee ofcourse.

The mysticism surrounding this story attracts you. At first you are not sure of Onmyouji's intentions. You might even think this is just another typical mystical predictable drama. Well, that's were you are wrong. The story is full of twists.

It has mysticism, typical cute drama stuff, slice of life, high school life etc.. everything you want is here.

The ending..this is not your typical dramatic ending. It is a very realistic ending.

You should definitely give this a go. The story is definitely worth your time.

I had fun watching how Yamada Kun find out about the witches. It is entertaining and surprisingly witty.

8 Episodes are enough, it just made this drama crisp and to the point. Not dragging at all. Every character had a serious role to play and no unwanted or extra characters in this drama.

If you are a drama fanatic and looking for something different than your usual romcom, then this is for you. It has high-school romance, supernatural stuff, comedy and a bit of action too.

In my opinion this drama has it all and it is worth your time. I have not watched the anime version of this. Hence, I kind of am not able to compare how good or bad this drama is compared to the anime.

But I can tell you one thing, this drama is worth your time. Go give this a try!

The storyline of this drama is not a very practical one, but a funny kawaii one. This is a kawaii version of noona lovestory.

It is kind of like an unexpected rom com. I am stressing the unexpected here because I really liked how the story developed into both of them realising what they feel for each other.

I always like to watch the original version first, hence gave this 2003 version a try.

There are a lot of funny and cute moments in this drama. The ending might surprise you, make you feel happy, uninterested or plain I did not expect this (In a good or bad way) depending on your expectation.

I liked the ending because I was hoping for the worst scenario and had literally postponed the ending for more than 30 days. But when I finally watched it, I loved it!

Not too many episodes, 10 episodes are just perfect or else you might feel this being a bit draggy.

I have not watched the 2017 version, and whatever I saw in this 2003 version, I liked it. If you are going to watch it after watching the 2017 version, guess your experience will be different.

Overall it is a good drama and should be on your watch list if you are into noona love kind of stuff.

This is a drama about making dramas. Jun Young falls in love with her sunbae Director Jong Ji Oh . The haps and mishaps of their relationship along with surrounding characters are pictured in this drama. The struggles the drama team goes through to complete each episode to air it on time and the rating hassles are portrayed well. Somewhere in the middle this drama gets stretched but its a mixture of relationships and daily work life of drama broadcasting people.

The head monk's son, The head of the taoist monks himself, Heo Joon and the princess seo ri try their best to end the curse without much damage. Found it interesting till the end. In my opinion, Seo Ri looks more like an innocent 13-14 year old child than a 17 year old princess.

It is a bit dragging, but because of HyunBin it really became interesting for me. I love Hyunbin dramas, hence I might watch this again. This drama is about how Jang ha na ssi helps Seo Jin with his personality disorder. The story has been portrayed in an interesting way and they chose the right actors for this story, Hyun Bin and Ji Min did justice to their roles. If you like the actor, you can watch it, story is ok, if you are ok with a bit of dragging of the story here and there, then you might like it.
