Surprisingly better than I expected. Honestly, Jisoo did fine... much better than Snowdrop and improvement should always be looked at as a positive. Light, fun, and entertaining. Ha Young was great, here's hoping that more main characters come her way. Was hoping for more screen time for Ryu Abel, she was underutilized but I guess not every side character gets a backstory.

^^^ This ^^^ It's odd to realize how many times I have songs from this and Something in the Rain going through my head for no apparent reason.

I have no idea why I liked this so much... but I did. Just general happenings with some interesting twists and interactions. Well written dialog and great acting [especially the 3 female leads]. Surprisingly, the music really added to the whimsical atmosphere. Great watch!

rarely do i post mid series but i'm all in on this one as it's right up my alley. really like the positivity in this, kicking at the darkness until you see sunlight. however, i can't believe they haven't banned white transport trucks in korea! they seem to be the largest factor in population decline.

Perhaps more bittersweet than full on happy.

This was a solid, well written and acted story. It's a short watch and well worth your time. Think of the positives while viewing.

I had high hopes for this one as I really appreciate Han Ji-min as an actor. However, the writing in this just isn't for me so I'm dropping after 2 episodes. Best of luck to those carrying on, I hope you enjoy it.

Okay, two episodes watched and I'm all in. I haven't been this engaged in something new since Motel California... and I hope it doesn't turn out like that did.

I think I'll spend the rest of the week building a time machine to transport myself back to when I first started watching this show...to slap some sense in to me. I dropped this during episode 2 but after reading reviews decided to start watching again. With each episode I hoped that it would get better but it didn't. Then it just became the need to complete and, well, curiosity of how much worse it could get. Had high hopes due to Kim Min Ha and she honestly delivered but her character wasn't fleshed out. Lee Jun Ho is very good looking but that doesn't make him a good actor... although he was better here than King the Land. I didn't find any of the Typhoon Trading employees likeable and the family members were hit and miss [the Mom was okay as was the kid]. One of the lowest ratings I've given to a series that I completed. I'm mad at myself for wasting my time.

Thoroughly enjoyed this movie. Not your typical zombie movie and that's okay! Great acting by everyone, especially Choi Yu Ri... she never broke character. Two hours well spent and I think I'll go grab a churro.

This was a very entertaining series. Was is perfect? No, but it was definitely engaging and kept my interest until the very end. Shin Hye-sun was excellent as always, she never ceases to impress and become the character[s]. Bonus points for having Lee Yi-dam towards the end... I could have watched a full series about her character's journey. Will rewatch at a later date.

I really enjoyed this series, it was well worth my time. Great story about living to the fullest no matter what the circumstances. Jeon Yeo Been was excellent [as usual] and special shout-outs to Lee Seol and Oh Kyung Hwa, they were wonderful. Namkoong Min was good as well but I can't help but feel that he delivers his lines in a similar manner [and attitude] in all the series that I've seen him in... this, My Dearest, One Dollar Lawyer.

Surprisingly good! Light, entertaining and fun... what more could you want? Yoona's acting continues to get better and Bo Hyun is solid as usual. Story did not unfold as expected but that made it even better. A solid use of 2 hours.

As I've mentioned here before, My Mister is the only kdrama that I've rated a 10 [200+ dramas] and it lives rent free in my head. I just finished Loving Strangers which is the cdrama adaptation and, while not as good [imo], it provided a different take on the original. I'd recommend watching it if you're pining for My Mister.

Just finished episode 3 and I'm out... this is not my thing. Best of luck to those that are carrying on!

Watch this... it's well worth your time. I'll admit that I'm biased as My Mister is my favourite kdrama and the only kdrama I've rated at 10. Honesty, My Mister [for me] is on par with Chernobyl and Breaking Bad [although totally different of course]. I enjoyed the acting and the nuances of this series, even the OST was decent. I really enjoyed the Yi Jun character as I noticed differences in this adaptation that kind of rounded out the wife in My Mister for me. Would I rate this a 10? No. It was missing the spark of My Mister and the OST [while good] didn't enhance the story. It's a strong 8.5-9.0 though, a very decent watch.

This season started off strong but ended on a less interesting note [last two missions]. Acting was excellent and guest stars made the series even more fun! Overall, I'd say it was on par with season 2 but not as good as season 1. I really miss Esom and her character.

Very watchable series... nothing too harsh or too cute, a nice balance. Also, this seemed to be a fun role for Jin Kyung, it's great to see her portray this type of character. Overall, a light and comforting watch without a lot of drama.

Rewatching this again... there's just something about this story that appeals to me. The acting and directing are great. OST is great in isolation but the issue is that it's on full repeat [and I mean full repeat].

It was "lite" to say the least. I did find that the leads had very little chemistry and I found the SML rather annoying... but perhaps he was supposed to be. Quick and fun watch but nothing memorable.
