Though the storyline was sometimes predictable it was really enjoyable at the same time....it makes you laugh too much and at the same time makes you cry....
My very first drama was "YOU'RE BEAUTIFUL" and till now it is the most special drama to me....I was searching for a long time for a similar drama and this drama felt somewhat similar like (male lead being arrogant, development of love between the leads, 3 boys and 1 girl staying together and caring for each other,....) If you liked YB you will surely like this though the plots are completely different...
Likes:
1.All the charecters were portrayed lovingly
2. Love development between the leads was good
3. There were many fun elements which made the show awesome
Dislikes:
1. The villain role was somewhat lagging
2. The story was sometimes predictable
This is my first time writing a review for a drama....this drama was really awesome so that i liked to share my thoughts on it....

Likes :
1. The casting was awesome...each and every character was lovely....especially buja character was so good and funny at the beginning
2. The lead pair were good
3. Mainly the BROMANCE was great...it was enough for me to watch this show...lee seung gi and cha seung won stole the show as son oh gong and ma wang
4. The ending was nice...i think a different ending would not suit it (i don't want to spoil it)
5. The ost were good....especially "when i saw you"
Dislikes:
1. The villain role was absolutely nothing ....it was too boring
2. The story had many unnecessary side stories
3. There were many plot holes
Overall it was 8/10 for me.....had a nice time watching it....

Story:
The story line may somewhat seem cliche to many people but that is what makes it so memorable and best...It keeps you always fresh and never disappoint you even in one episode....The development of love between the leads is so realistic and lovely....some people may have second lead syndrome at first (even i had it) but subsequently you will start to like the main lead more....
Acting:
The main reason for this show to get so much popularity is definitely because of the casting... They were apt to the name you're beautiful... And also they did a great job in portraying their roles....Especially Jang geun suk was awesome as Hwang tae kyung...
Music :
This was my first time getting inspired from lyrics and music of another language.... the ost " Without Words" was just awesome..... still one of my favourite ost...also all the other ost were good...since this was a musical drama i had great expectations for music and it definitely satisfied me
Rewatch :
I can definitely say you can rewatch this any number of times without getting bored...such an amazing drama
Overall :
It is a 10/10 for me....I cannot say it is the best drama generally (for me it is the best) but it will surely be a memorable and close to heart one....you will surely enjoy it...

The background story might be the similar to most of the crime-thriller dramas but what makes Memorist special is the element of supernatural powers which keeps us guessing all throughout the drama who the villain actually is. Each time you make a theory, the very next episode throws all that into bin making you ho crazy and invested in the story. The execution of the drama was really made well. And what makes it unique is it stays original to its genre and delivers a convincing, satisfying and real story.
Another major asset of this drama is the perfect casting. Yoo seung ho and lee se young totally rocked. And all the supporting actors also did really well and made us feel connected with them. I've already seen lee se young in doctor john (which is also another gem) and she is really a great actress. What a performance!!! And yoo seung ho, again was perfect as the jerky detective who deals with these bastrads in his own way. And the trio of old man, se hoon and DB totally stole the show. I'll be missing these AVENGERS a lot!!!
So if you're debating on whether to watch or not, no doubt just watch it.. its a rare gem and not to be missed one. Beginning 4 episodes might be slightly a drag but thereafter it takes you on a roller-coaster ride which you'll surely enjoy if you are a fan of crime thrillers.

Perhaps we all know that this drama was made because of another drama - You're Beautiful in which some viewers hoped for this pair to get along.....But in you're beautiful i loved the original pairing much....
Coming to heartstrings....in my opinion it was really a nice drama to watch....Even though the story is average and common it has many heartwarming moments which makes you to love it......
Likes:
1. The way the lovers care ,trust and support each other at hard times is beautifully shown in this drama
2. Even though there was many love triangles they were handled properly and didn't take much time in it
3. Casting was awesome and so was their acting
4. This drama gave equal space to all characters and conveyed the story from everyone's point of view
Dislikes:
1. It was a little bit slow at the beginning
2. Same song was repeated more times (it is always the same sky) (but it was nice)
3.The ending felt somewhat empty(I somewhat expected for a more strong ending)
In short if you want to watch a light hearted drama you can go with this.....This feels somewhat slow in the beginning then gets much better in the middle and goes for a simple ending...I enjoyed watching it...
