I debated on watching this drama as it had mixed reviews. Im glad I watched it as its a fun drama if nothing else.
It surely gives you a lot of laughs and cheers you up. Lots of endearing romantic moments with good chemistry between the leads.
Mind you a lot of cliches too, not something you cant endure. It had melodrama at times but not long enough to make you sad.
It starts of a bit slow with hardly any story, just a lot of lighthearted stuff and hilarious moments. Then it gets a bit slow, but after ep 10 the story boosts up, and you find your self addicted to it. You start liking the leads and getting annoyed by the baddies.
Certainly its not a perfect drama, but if you feel down, just pick this one up, it will definately cheer you up, but dont expect it to be perfect, take it lightly and you will enjoy it.

I watched because I like the actors in this drama, but surprisingly it wasnt a bad on.
Both the leads are good and very likable charactors. I like the character of the lead actress, shes gutsy cute clever and loyal (I like these traits in a girl, dont like stupid and helpless kinds)
The main story is flanked by side stories of different cases which are interesting and the court cases which are quite good and pull you in.
There is a nice chemistry between the leads although there is not too much romance, (I would have been happier if there was more)
I had a bit of an issue with the second pair romance.***Spoiler***ahead

I was not at all comfortable with their adultry. Whatever the reason adultry is not the right thing for married people. Either end your marriage and have affairs and if you dont want to or cant then control yourself and dont have them. Its not right to hang on to both. That was the only dirty thing about the drama and made me dislike the second leads.

Well over all it was a good drama and I enjoyed watching it, although I dont think ill rewatch it.

This started out as a very good show, yes its intriguing and suspenseful, but after about 10 episodes it gets very repitative, same same same thing happening in different ways.
I feel if it was a show with 12 or 14 episodes it would have been excellent show.
The acting was quite good but I found the ending not satisfying at all. I thought it was pointless after so much effort.
Well I would recomend it but it is definately not for the faint hearted as its quite deep and dark, I wish it had more romance to counter its heaviness.

I started Tamra after hearing such raving reviews about it. The first few episodes were quite annoying. I found Boe Jin too irritating and the english guy pathetic. I droped it after 6 episodes. The only character I liked was Park Kyu, his acting was great and so was his character.
then I said let me try one more time, the more I watched the more I liked PK, the more BJ annoyed me and Illiam was more and more pathetic.
Anyway I finished it finally after fforwarding all of williams parts, I tolerated BJ because of PK, because his parts were really nice. In the end I gave this drama 6 as the story wasnt bad. The actors did a good job except of Pierre (william) maybe if it was a better actor he might not have been so pathetic. BJ even though annoying acted well.
This is just my opinion, hope I dont offend anyone as there ara a lot of Tamra Lovers out there, its just that I wasnt one of them.

Its true, not a typical kdrama, but deals with everyday life with the backdrop of drama production.
Well it was not addicting like most dramas, and I found the charactor of the lead actress a little over bearing and the lead actors a bit too mild.
The charactors of the other pair were cuter. The drama dragged toward the half way mark and I had to skip a few episodes (didnt miss much of the story) and fast forward to the interesting scenes.
Music wasnt bad and the acting was very good. So if dont have anything else just give it a go.

This is the second J drama Ive seen as Im basically a K drama fan and I was sort of inbetween dramas.
This is certainly a watchable and cute drama. The story is nice and the acting is good, especially the main guy.
Its a romantic comedy about an eccentric man and a simple hardworking girl, although its not something to go all ga ga for, its quite watchable enjoyable and addicting. The ending is cute and the fact that it has 11 episodes is welcome as some korean dramas tend to drag on and get boring in the end.

Love Rain is a really romantic drama in a true sense. Although the story of the parents is relevent and needs to be seen to understand the drama, I started loving it from the end of episode 5 when we see the meeting of Jun and HaNa.

Yes it has the love triangles and first love cliches, but I loved the main couple so much I overlooked all that. Jun is the typical playboy with an attitude and ego, he knows it and I love it. HaNa is the typical innocent trusting naive sweetheart who gets a first in everthing with Jun (so cute but thank god not clumsy and stupid, like some heroines)
There is the most adorable romance, then the painful seperation and resolving of the conflicts, and a well done ending. All done in a beautiful mannar, the scenery is lovely, the music is catchy and the side charactors all cute.

It is one of the few dramas, apart from coffec Prince, Goong, Shining Inheritance I have rewatched and enjoyed all over again.

The actors did a wonderful job, I hope to see more from this team!!!

I am basically a romantic comedy person, and there are very few action/suspense type drama which I like, some I watch and then forget, some I enjoy but not as much as romance or comedy. But this is one suspense drama that got me HOOKED from the first episode.
Like the synopsis, its about hacking and murder with hardly any romance and a speck of comedy here and there. But the suspence is so gripping you cant let go. It keeps you guessing and trying to figure whats going to happen next to the extent you just want to keep watching.
Im sure there are other similar ones, but this a first for me that had me so addicted (to a suspense drama)
The main pair is nice but the second lead pair is really cute, I enjoyed their scenes a lot.
Then ending was amazing and they finished off the drama really well. I really have to praise the writers for that..(cant say for some of the others who mess up a real good drama with a messy ending eg bag guy, big)
Well guys if you want to see a drama that keeps you on the edge then go for it!!!you wont regret it even the romantic lovers like me

I feel really bad about saying this but this drama was just not my cup of tea.
I just dont know what to make of it. I feel bad because so much effort is put into the making of a drama, the actors, production teams, music etc etc, but guys it didnt work for me.
I love teen dramas, BOF, Hana Kimi, Dream High, Shut Up Flower band etc. but I dont know whats wrong here.
The actors are cute but the story so predictable and forced comedy.
This first love thingie is also getting too out dated.
I wont stop others, as so many of you out there love it. This drama is just not for me.

After watching the whole drama, I still feel I had very high expectations for this drama, especially everyone was raving about it and it was the no. 1 drama everywhere, for me it was a good but not a great drama. I thought it had too many flaws along with it being good in some parts.

Don't get me wrong, this is definitely worth the watch and it addicting and instesting even if it does get repitative at times. The ending was OK, I felt it should have had a more definative ending but it sort of held it in for the veiwers to assume the rest.

Story:

The story was good and new, because of the time frame and a different kind of struggle, but it had some major flaws (my opinion so it might differ from others)

*****Beware of SPOILERS, so dont read if you havent watched it yet*****
The major one was about Sunji, he is shown as a principled, mild, pleasent and non political man. He thinks his father is wrong in doing what he does, and doesnt get along with his brother (he even says so in the end) also thinks bro is his father puppet hense he has chosen to be a teacher and live a peaceful life. Now suddenly when he see his brothers death...he swithes to this evil conniving and murdering person. He doesnt feel bad about killing innocent women or children or anyone in the path to get his revenge. Now what is this..How can one change ones personality in a sec...no matter what you do, you do have a consience and cant do things you have always felt were wrong, or only do them to the parties concerned.
The other matter was about the hair styles and clothing...I dont feel they was for the time frame being filmed. Although sometimes they were, sometime not.

Acting
All of the actors did a fantastic job and really made each of their characters shine. Especially Gang To and Sunji. They were brilliant. You really get attached to all of them and felt their joys and pain. Bun was ok but the other girl did a fantastic job. Bravo everyone.

Music:
The music was good, and different themes for different scenes. Overall the soundtract was quite good.

Summary:
Overall I was a little disappointed but it definately was not a bad drama, mostly because I was expecting too much. You know when you hear something is ssooooo great, and when you watch it, it seems ok, on the other hand if someone says it was ok and you seem to find that really great, My opinion about this drama is like that.
I would definately recommend it to watch it but dont know if I will REwatch it. Inany case there are few I rewatch anyway.

I had real high hopes for this show as the storyline about the fortyish guys sounded interesting. Everyone know "Men get naughty when forty" so I said lets see what this is about.
It was kind of a cute show but not much of a story line here, the main actress's character is kind of boring, and its unlikely a guy who is supposed to be such a playboy, smart and popular to fall so badly for her, especially as shes pining for someone else.
The best couple was the Yoon with the cute MeARi. Atleast their romance was the cutest although I felt she was a bit young for him. It would have been better if they had more story about them.
The worst couple was the married one, their story was plain stupid.
Se Ra was another annoying charactor.
Overall it was a fun ride especially when they show the parts of the four friends amongst themselves in the begining of each episode. The bromance was the best here.

I started to watch this show as I really liked the actress and it seemed an entertaining drama.
I like romantic comedies as opposed to sad and miserable melos, (dont get me wrong I like melos too but just not deperessing and painful ones and I definately like happy endings)
The show started out really nice, actually the acting of the younger guy was cute and adorable, just could not make out why he falls for such an older woman.
The doctor guy was really cute too and so suited to the heroine, but well.
It does get a bit draggy in the middle but then finishes off nicely.
I cant say "You must watch it, but I will say it is one of the nice dramas during this season" so if you have the time give it a go and enjoy!!

Just finished this cute and fuzzy drama. It might be short but just right I think. Everyone is super cute.
I loved it as it has no evil nasty ppl, the envy and jealousy are all so natural and cute.
The guy looks so cute as a girl, at first i could never imagine him being a girl and when he acts as a boy he looks just as cute as a boy too....
Try watching it when you want to feel young, careless and happy.
