The only reason to watch this is for Park Shin Hye & joo Sang Wook...

Story- Your average family drama. It wasn't as funny as I thought it was going to be. The plot was very good but there were too many episodes. It really doesnt start to get good till 15 episodes in. The ending was welcomed although the way they wrote the romance between Lee Min Jung's character and the second brother was a little rushed so thier ending was kind of like "Say what?" Thier characters were underused and their romance could have filled up more space and made the story more interesting.

Acting/Cast- Very good acting by the main characters of course but I did find thier pairing a bit strange. I mean JSW is more than 10 yrs older than PSH. The supporting cast all filled their roles well. As I said though LMJ was quite underused and I thought her character was cute/funny.

Music- Average OST; nothing memorable but fit the scenes well.

Rewatch- Its rewatchable but because the story is so average I'm not sure Id watch this again or not.

Overall Kimcheed Radishes is very good but would have been much more enjoyable if cut by 14 episodes. Id say watch for the leads.

Ive never read the manga or watched the anime so I didnt know a lot going into this. However, after finishing it I can say it was pretty entertaining. I enjoyed the second half of eps because the story was more developed and it delved into more of the characters back-story. I wanted more romance but I appreciated the outrageous as well. Looking forward to the movie...

Sophie\''s Revenge is a fun watch as there are many laughs you get from Sophie\''s crazy revenge schemes. My only problem was there wasn\''t enough development of the romance between Sophie and Gordon. Gordon makes aware many times throughout the movie that he is interested romantically in Sophie. Then suddenly at the end Sophie is madly in love with Gordon? It just doesn\''t seem believable. The ending didnt make sense either. Why did he choose to come back at that time? We dont know he just magically pops back in. Anyways the acting was believable which I appreciated for a Chinese movie. Since I didn\''t love the characters I\''m not sure if Id watch this again. Still I\''d recommend watching for the laughs and interesting cinematography.

DNG is the weirdest movie you will ever see!

The story starts off as just another teen comedy but turns into something just completely insane towards the end. I seriously felt like I was on drugs watching this (You'll see what I mean). This movie has teen troubles, a transvestite business Unnie, a Cyclops student, transgendered student, a prostitute student turned dancing video sensation, a man principle turned lady dragon, and plenty of laughs. You will be saying WTF am I watching throughout the entire movie but that's what makes this movie fun to watch.

The cast is mostly unknowns but they managed to make thier roles believable.

Really loved the use of color.

I'd recommend this movie because its funny and out of the ordinary.

I really liked this movie! It was funny, angsty and had a good plot. I thought the whole movie would be just about dancing but was surprised to find that a development of a romance was a large part of the plot. There were some parts that did feel a little slow. The movie ended on a nice note.

I liked the leads and even with their large age gap they managed to convince me that their characters loved each other. Props to MGY who showed off excellent dancing skills. I can tell she had to work her butt off filming this movie.

I know I'll be watching this again in the future, just not right away.

Hana Kimi Remake wasn't as bad as I thought it would be...

Story- Very different from the original. It is more realistic but I found the plot to be just as interesting. The ending was perfect!

Acting/Cast- The played thier roles well but I just didnt connect with any of the characters. The leads didnt have any chemistry which kind of ruins my wanting them to be together.

Music- same music as original.

Rewatch- I wouldnt mind rewatching this if I actually liked the cast but because I didnt I'd probably just rewatch the original. Although because this story is pretty good, id say its rewatchable.

Let me first say I'm not an avid Historicals watcher. Because of this my scores might not reflect the same love that everyone else has for The Princess' Man.



Story- The first 12 episodes were okay. They went by at a good pace not too slow but nothing significant happened to capture my attention. I felt they could have cut a couple of episodes out of this part of the story, making the drama shorter. The last 12 episodes were epic and filled with heartbreaking romance, action, and just plain excitement. The ending was bittersweet but a pleasant surprise.



Acting- I'm really really glad Park Shi Hoo took this role on. He showed in his last 2 dramas that he is HOT and a good but not excellent actor. Well in this drama he showed a variety of acting skills and definitely proved his excellent acting ability. I hope he wins an award for best actor=D Moon Chae Won performed her role well but I actually dont think this is her best character she has played. The supporting cast all performed their roles well but I wasnt obsessed with the characters. I do want to mention the little actress that plays PSH's niece. She was so believable and seems so talented for such a young age. Definitely want to see more from her.



Music- Was intense and really added to the changing mood. When it was romance scenes the music was lovely. When there was fighting the music heightened and elevated the suspense.



Rewatch- Although I liked the show I didnt have that special feeling I get when Im obsessed over a show. Because of this Im not sure whether I would rewatch this or not.



Overall my favorite part of The Princess' Man is the romance storyline between the main characters and definitely would recommend it for that reason=)

Dream High is an entertaining watch for sure...

Story- The writing was very solid with twists thrown that took what could have been just another romantic comedy and made it an addicting and unpredictable watch. It's only downfall would be the ending. The ending kind of seemed random and I didnt understand why certain people couldn't be together.

Acting/Cast- Everyone played thier parts well and were believable. However, I did not like 3 of the main 6 characters. To me the characters Hye Mi, Jin Gook, and Sam Dong were highly unlikable to the point I wished the writers didnt focus on them too much. My favorite characters were actually the adults and of course Pil Sook & Jason couple.

Music- Awesome and went on my ipod straight away. The music really added to the excitement of the show.

Rewatch- I'd watch this every year cause it was funny and i worship pilsook/jason couple.

Overall Dream High's plus's would be its solid writing and its OST which make it a drama that is highly recommendable.

I dont even know why I started watching this show because I dont like sports. I mean the only person I knew from the cast is UEE but I didnt even like her character in Your Beautiful. But for some reason I wanted to see if her acting was any different...

Story- UNPREDICTABLE. The story starts off slow (not to the point of being bored) and is too focused on the character of Hae Ryung (not UEE's character)but by episode 10 things start to pick up and become super interesting because it focuses on UEE's character. The last episode made me want to rip my hair out. The ending kept in line with the unpredictable theme. Its probably the worst ending Ive ever seen in my life! Seriously if it werent for the first 23 eps having solid writing i would have rated the story lower just because of the sorry ending.

Acting- UEE can act her butt off! She changed my opinion of her (hated her in YB). The rest of the cast all made thier characters believable. I really despised the character of Hae Ryung though (very pathetic and no character development until the last ep.)

Music- Nice enough music that was memorable but nothing that i would be obsessed with.

Rewatch- If it werent for the ending Id probably would have rewatched it in 2 yrs or so but i have no wish to rewatch this drama, although it is at least rewatchable.

Overall this drama had huge potential but the lack of a believable romance and the nonsensical ending really ruined the good feelings i had about this show throughout its run. I'd still recommend this drama though because the writing is good and the acting is very good.

I must have been out of my mind when I started this one because I had never attempted or even cared to attempt a drama more than 45 episodes (Smile You) but the fact that I was a fan of Joo Sang Wook (Thorn Birds) & Hwang Jung Eum (Can You Hear My Heart)led me to try out a couple of episodes...

Story: It starts off with the child stories and here is where you see everything (father's death, siblings seperated, meeting of the romantic OTP #1) go down. When the characters grow up, there are multiple time jumps and twist and turns throughout to keep you engaged till the very end. Be prepared to cry a lot and be shocked at how the romantic pairings go (they are twisted). I loved the ending although it was bittersweet. I will say that this definitely could have been done with a shorter ep count because there were many filler scenes.

Acting: Excellent ensemble cast. Everyone from the 2 main couples to the supporting cast was amazing. I got attached to all the characters and it was crazy how everyone who is considered protagonists also showed a bad side to them. The writers did a phenomenal job in writing these characters. Just wanted to mention I wasnt too keen on Lee Bum Soo in the beginning but by the end I had become a fan! The chemistry btwn him and Park Jin Hee was perfect.

Music: The score was so fitting. Powerful when it needed to be and emotional in all the right places.

Rewatch: Although its a large ep count, I loved the acting so much that i would like to try and watch this every year if i have the time cause its so epic.

Overall Giant is a must watch for any die hard drama fan and the perfect introduction to Lee Bum Soo. Dont be turned off by the huge ep count or you will be missing out!

So this movie was great but there were some things I didn't like...

What I did like was the acting. The actors made all thier characters feel believable and realistic. Another thing I liked was the comedy aspect. They didn't try to hard and added natural comedic scenes here and there.

What I didn't like was the story itself. It went back and forth between both guys and by the end I was like just pick someone already! But who I wanted her to end up with she didn't so kind of bummed... really though the ending is not really that believable to me. Did she really make the right decision for herself? Maybe a realistic decision but I don't think in her heart she did because really how can you get over a guy that quickly??Another thing I didn't like was all the time changes. You'll see what I mean but it was confusing because they dont tell you its been a certain amount of years till way after. So it gets a little confusing.

Well this movie was okay but the story could have been a little more stable.

I actually didn't know what an Otaku was so I thought from the picture, the movie was going to be about her being a maid for some reason?

Yeah well it was totally different from what I thought! It's a little naughty but really funny story about a girl who is obsessed with boy love manga, games, tv, movies etc and the normal boy who loves her and is willing to accept her as she is. The story does get a little dramatic towards the end though. The ending is nice and sweet. The leads were cute together. I really like that thier characters were so different but somehow they found love. Overall How to Date an Otaku Girl is a cute and funny watch.

I was skeptical about watching this drama just because the romantic comedies of 2011 were average and disappointing. But I was willing to give this a chance because I was a new fan of Choi Kang Hee who I just seen in Petty Romance. I didn’t even know who anybody else in the cast was…

Story- has the most hilarious script ever! I don’t know how many times I cried from the laughter because it really is just too much. The plot is pretty average being that nothing really happens outside of them working in an office and the romances that develop. It does get a bit dramatic in some of the episodes. The ending was perfect=)

Acting/Cast- Perfect casting! I seriously loved not only the 4 leads but the supporting characters as well. Wang Ji Hye was awesome as Ice Cream. I'm a new fan of hers, Ji Sung, and JaeJoong.

Music- I liked 3 songs from the OST enough to put them on my ipod. Some of the other songs fit the scenes but weren’t memorable to me.

Rewatch- Id watch this once a year for the laughs and b/c I loved the characters so much.

Overall Protect the Boss isn’t perfect by far, but it has just the right amount of entertainment. That, along with the awesome cast, makes it a romantic comedy that will be remembered for a long time to come.

I was looking for a good Taiwanese drama to watch and decided to watch this since the reviews for it were good and the summary sounded pretty interesting...

Story- It is very dark. Many things bad things happen to the couple in which they must over come it to reach thier happy ending. I loved the romance in this. Although the obstacles they had to face were a bit too many in my opnion. It got tiring after a while. I would have also enjoyed it more if the episodes were cut short by just a little. Loved the complete ending.

Acting/Cast- The actors did a very good job of playing thier characters. Although, I have seen better acting. The leads had an amazing chemistry that made me want to keep watching to see how thier relationship develops. Amazing character development for Vic Zhou's character. He changed from this womanizer who is able to love wholeheartedly his opposite and his love for her is so lovely to see.

Music- Very good OST but I didnt have an interest of listening to it outside of the show.

Rewatch- This was just too tiring at times so while I would like to see this again it would be a while.

My review is unbiased because I haven't read the manga or seen an anime...

High School Debut is so funny I literally laughed the entire time. It does have its "drama" moments but it didn't take a way from the fun of the movie. The ending was predictable but cute nonetheless. I really liked the use of color in the movie. Everything was colorful and bright and just made me feel cheerful while watching.

Loved the entire cast! The female lead might be a new actress but she did a good job of bringing her character to life, very believable. Of course there's Junpei who I adore; liked that he played a coldish character this time. My favorite character is actually the sister. Shes so Kawaii! I really liked her hair and clothes=D The rest of the cast was a great addition.

The music was fun and very fitting. It definitely added to the movie's atmosphere.

I can see myself watching this twice in the same year.

Although this might sound like a silly movie, its so entertaining and provides a nice message. Watch it!
