The story was very very simple and not a lot happens. The main plot in this is the “couple” traveling together to find the house/loved one of the person who’s ashes they are carrying around the entire movie. You think by the end the main characters are going to come together romantically and maybe raise the child together or something but yeah the ending just didn’t happen that way. In fact nothing really happens in the end at all but I’m not surprised because nothing happened during the movie either. Still, I enjoyed watching the leads interact and I was glad they were able to find some sort of comfort in each other during the time they were traveling together. The score was nice but not memorable. I really liked the leads but I’m not sure if I’d watch this again. Overall I’m not mad I watched this but am a little disappointed in the story. If you have a lot of patience and need something to watch I’d say try it.

Well here I am giving it another go and I find myself easily going through each episode until I marathoned that sucker till the end. The episodes did get more and more interesting with each new case. Not only that but as the overall plot surrounding the mystery of our Vampire prosecutor started to develop the drama became really addicting. The last episode played out like a movie with all the action and excitement.
I liked the characters at first but they didn't offer me anything that made me want to stick to watching before I dropped. After I came back to it though I grew to LOVE all the characters. They really meshed well together. The lead who plays the Vampire prosecutor was perfect!
I probably could re-watch this drama ever year cause its so interesting and i loved the cast.
Except for the 3 episodes that were lacking I really really enjoyed watching Vampire Prosecutor and am looking forward to season 2=D

The acting was very good by everyone especially the leads. Yoon Shi Yoon really has improved from Baker King. I really liked that his character was actually nice and innocent which is a switch from our regular arrogant male leads. Lee Ji Ah played her character very well but I never came to like her character, which is probably the reason I didn’t love the show. I liked the supporting characters they added some fun.
The OST was really good. Ill be sure to put most of the songs on my ipod to listen to=)
This drama is rewatchable but I'm not interested in watching again cause I didn't like the main female character at all!
Overall this is just another predictable watch to pass the time.

Story- The first episode was so original. I liked that we got to see a backstory of how fate will play a role in them meeting again, although for a bit they don't know what we know. This drama was heavy on the romance and the story is predictable but I just found it so fascinating. I love that the feelings the main couple had for each other never wavered. Now there was plenty conflict especially towards the end but it never got too angsty to the point of frustration. My only complaint about the story would be the arc about the tug of war team, it really could have been done without. The ending was happy=)
Acting/Cast-The leads really carried the show. Their acting especially by Janine was really really good. She had a lot of crying scenes and managed to make them very believable. Peter and her had such an AMAZING chemistry. Now a lot of the supporting characters I thought the drama could have did without, like Xiao Xiang’s friend she meets competing for a job and her tug of rope posse. They were so annoying and also Xiao Xiang’s family especially her mom(the overacting was really too much). Other than that I liked the supporting cast.
Music- I don't usually notice a Taiwanse OST unless its to the point where I can hum the melodies of the songs outside of watching the show. So I can say without a doubt, I really liked the OST and score because they were memorable.
Rewatch- I can see myself watching this once a year just because the drama is short and I loved the leads. I could never get bored with watching this.
Overall Ring Ring Bell might seem cliche and silly at times but it was such an enjoyable watch. This is my top Taiwanese drama even beating out Autumn's Concerto & Devil Beside you. That's saying something!

I loved the leads together and they had such a good chemistry. I wished the writers used that to thier advantage. The supporting cast in this was okay but not as memorable as the one in the first.
Overall this is a good movie that can be watched again but in a few years.

When the characters were actually working on the musical it was very interesting. Then somewhere in the middle the story took several directions. Towards the end it became just very dramatic and there was no focus on musicals. I actually forgot that this drama was called the Musical just because there wasnt that much music. I didn't watch the end but heard it was rushed so I'll probably just read a recap. Still though for most of the time the story kept my interest.
I think the casting was perfect...except for Ko Hye Sun. I think what brought the quality down was her poor singing voice. Also, her character development was poorly written so that plus her awful voice just made it hard to want to root for her. Daniel Choi was perfect in his role. I did like all the supporting characters.
The music was memorable but nothing I'd want to listen to outside the show.
I'm not sure If Id rewatch this or not.
Overall if this drama was written better and casted with a better female lead it would have left a lasting impression but since thats not the case I'd just rate it as being average but worth watching once.

The story is recycled yet again but managed to put its own fresh spin on things. Things stay interesting and hilarious throughout so you will never get bored. I will say the last episode is kind of weak compared to the rest of the series but I when you think about it most romantic comedies end the same way but the ending was cute.
To me the best part of the show was the cast. To be honest I didnt like Lee Chung Ah's character in the beginning and I wasnt sure Id like the show because of her. However, her character grew on me and I really think she is a great actress. For the guys, you might think that all they provided for the show was thier hotness but seriously all the guys were able to show off thier acting skills. Even the newbies such as the guy that plays Bawool(my new fav actor) and I really enjoyed the supporting characters such as Eun Bi's high school friends (they were so funny/cute). I really really liked the entire cast because they meshed well together.
The OST was different and I think i'm going to put most of the songs on my ipod=)
I don't tend to rewatch romantic comedies just because the plot gets old but I will rewatch this for the cast and to laugh.
Overall this is hands down the best romantic comedy of 2011!

Story: First, the revenge is way less gritty than it sounds. I thought the female characters revenge would make for a great turning point for the plot but the writers kind of dropped the ball and her "revenge" was more of an emotional one rather than of taking action which kind of gets repetative. I would have also liked it more if they cut it down to 16 eps. There are a lot of things that I would never guess would happen so the plot isnt predictable at least. The best thing about the story is the romance. Lots of angst to eat up and you pray there will be a happy ending in the midst.
Acting/Cast :Lee Bo Young is a hit or miss for me. I havent seen a decent drama with her in which she has chemistry with the male lead. Well of course here comes the attractive/great actor Joo Jin Mo and you got some HOT chemistry! Their relationship was off the charts sizzling. I didnt care for the supporting cast and found the second lead characters annoying/not relevant to the story.
Music: It fit the drama well but not memorable.
Rewatch: If it were a little shorter, i probably could watch it every year due to my love of the couple but i think this is some thing i can wait to watch in a few years.
Overall Queen of the Game is the most romantic drama you will see!

First, I found the topic of weightloss very interesting. I think they did a good job of covering all aspects such as positives and negatives of weightloss as well as her losing weight both in an unhealthy and healthy way. I know I learned a lot from watching the show. I did think it was annoying that she rebounded many times throughout. I think it was more than 4 times or something. Watching all the cakes being made really made me want to make some as well. They were so pretty and looked like they tasted like heaven. The ending was cute.
The acting was superb especially by the female lead. I thought the character was annoying and outrageously naive at some parts but it just showed what kind of an actress Saki is. Mokomichii was cute as always but his character was over the top as well. Somehow though they both make the perfect couple and complete each other. I liked the supporting characters they really added something.
Overall Rebound is silly but also serious at the same time. I rated it so high because I love the cast and it was very very entertaining.

The acting was average and the only thing that would've made the movie better was an A list cast.
I still enjoyed the movie so I would recommend it.

Story- Not bad but not amazing either. It was written enough to keep your attention till the end. That being said the way they wrote the romance was quite disappointing. It wouldn't be such a problem if the genre of this drama wasn't Romance. Let me warn you the romance doesnt begin till the last episode. And then your suppose to believe that its possible that they would want to get married? I'm sorry but I just wasn't impressed with the sill ending.
Acting/Cast- Good acting by everyone and I loved the leads together. I just wish their characters interacted more.
Music- Good Ost but nothing Id listen to outside the show.
Rewatch- Its rewatchable but Im not sure If I'd rewatch it or not, just because I was a bit disapointed with the story.
Overall Sweet Relationship is worth watching once.

I liked the cast but I wasnt in love with them. Thier acting was very good though. To be honest I never grew to like the main female character. I kept watching to see Ryu Su Young\''s smile.
The music was very good although with 2 songs it got to be a little repatative.
I\''m not sure whether Id watch this drama again just because I dont feel I have to see the characters again.
Overall this has an interesting enough story but I dont have any special feelings for it. I\''d reccommend watching it once though when you\''ve exhausted better choices.
