"A boy who wished to be okuda tamio and a girl who drove all men crazy" was .... okay. I really liked the ending, where the character had a meal with his old self. I guess there was more in that scene than in the whole movie.

The main plot of the drama was not anything that we haven't seen before. And the story felt a bit flat and predictable. It was easy to read the characters, especially the leading lady's. Not that the performances weren't good. Both actors did an good job and they had chemistry. However, her character was a bit stereotypical.

So, overall, four out of ten.

Love Buzz is a cute, short special, kind of like a movie.

The story is lovely, with the romance quite good. Sure, the movie started a bit oddly, with the lead presenting himself as the son of the girl. But the twist towards the ending was really good and unpredictable. However, and this is the sole reason why I took some points off this one, the ending was wide open. Maybe there will be a second "season" (?). Else, that ending can not possibly be justified, as it was not satisfying enough.

Still, the movie managed to explain the fantasy part quite well and they pulld off a nice love story in a very short time line. In addition, the performances were very good.

So, seven out of ten.

Perfume had an interesting story, not that the main plot was something we haven't watch before.

There was a main hole in the story when it came to the leading lady. Although both actresses were really good and they played the same character perfectly, there were some parts of her story that just didn't feel "real" like she really was going to react like that?

In any case, the love story was good and they had nice chemistry. The love triangle was okay too. However, the ending was just too cliche. At least, character vice, it was interesting.

So, six out of ten.

My absolute boyfriend, korean version, could have been better.

First of all, I don't know if the other versions had better ending, but this one was not well concluded. I might as well say that the ending was kind of open, as it just leave you guessing who's who.

The performances, however, were really good. The love triangle might have been weak, but the leading couple had chemistry and were cute together, at least if you set aside the fact that the leading man was a robot.

Now, for the pacing, the drama started strongly and it intriguing to watch. However, it got boring after a while, because everything happened just too slowly and the events were going in circles.

So, six out of ten.

I hate you Juliet! was just good.

The story was okay. They handled the fantasy part well, and that was the only part that spiced up the show a little, as well as the leading lady character, who was interesting and kind of entertaining. Hong Ki was adorable as always and cute, but he didn't really have any chemistry with the leading lady. So, the romance was weak as well as the love triangle that wasn't properly developed.

The past stories were okay, but most of the drama was packed with cliche plot twists. At least the performances were good.

So, six out of ten.

Special labor inspector Jo is one of the dramas that were overshadowed by the popular ones airing at the time. But, if you enjoy the drama that fight against injustice and against all odds, this one will do the trick for you.

The drama overall was good. There were some parts of it that were predictable. Others were boring. But, they mixed the action scenes with the comedy and the drama well. I also liked the secondary romance that was cute. And the relationships that were formed between the characters, were well presented and overall strong.

Finally, the performances from all actors and actresses were great.

So, seven out of ten for special labor inspector Jo.

Anyone who had watched "Wolf girl, Black Prince" would remember the second lead, who was overall geeky but when he took off his glasses looked droped dead gorgeous. Well, this movie is the live action of that (and with the same actor).

So, what I liked about this movie was the choice of actors. All of them were perfect for their parts and therefore, they added a lot to the movie. Their performances were good as well.

As for the story, here's what desappointed me. Maybe it was because I was really looking forward to this movie. And the start was admitadly good. But the ending was cheesy, kind of rushed, and over the top cliche. I guess they didn't manage the pace very well.

So, six out of ten.

What I liked about Love Rain was the concept. It was an interesting idea to connect two stories together, one from the past and one taking place in the present. Maybe if this one was a few episodes shorter all those cliche predictalbe scenes would not have happened and the story would have concluded nicely and satisfying. However, it didn't and thus, the episodes towards the ending were boring and just too loooong. The start of the drama was kind of slow as well. Actually, the second story was better than the first one. I did enjoy however the way they presented that era. Also, the love triangle was better in the first story than in the second one, where it was weak. Finally, they didn't really explain the character's past in betweet the two stories. So, 5 out of 10.

This drama has a cute concept about friendship and romance. Four different women with different lives and different personalities face the same problems when it comes to love. The stories were cute, but they lacked depth. The romance, moreover, wasn't as intense as it should have been, though some stories were more realistic than the others. The plot, in addition, was predictable, but it had a nice pace and it was fun. The characters, as well, were presented nicely and the performances were pretty good from all the cast too. Finally, the ending was okay and heartwarming.

Feel good to die was a surprise. It was funny and it pulled the fantasy theme off nicely. The time loop was just there to spice up the plot, but the main one, the office politics and comedy, were not influanced by it. The romance was weak though. And, towards the ending, they fell into the cliche trap, but at least it was entertaining. Also, the performances were really good, as well as the second lead syndrom (oh, the second lead again TT), though the love triangle wasn't so good. So, overall, it was an entertaining drama, even though the ending was weak. Seven out of ten.

A rom com about a career woman who finds love in the office. It was cute, overall, and I especially enjoyed the second couple's story, which was intense and sweet. I also liked that this drama didn't shy off and showed the relationships as they were. Towards the ending, however, the leading couple's story got a bit boring, as the big twist that happened was confusing and they could have resolved it easily. Alas, they dragged us all through the final episodes with it, something that didn't really fit the leading lady's character. In any case, the drama was enjoyable, so seven out of ten.
