Most of the time, webdramas tend to be just pure adverts with no story and a few have good performances. This is not the case for this one. The story was pretty good, with a nice romance, though the plot was full of cliche and it wasn't something we haven't watched before. Even so, the love story was sweet and the drama entertaining. Aslo, the performances were really good by every actor and actress. I also have to add that there were not many product placement in this one, which tend to be annoying and ruin the plot just to show some products. So, overall 7 out of 10.

Miracle that we met was a surprise of a drama. Originally I've started it for Kai, as the story was kind of odd and it didn't seem anything special from the description. After the first episodes, the story got me hooked (and I realized that I wasn't going to see Kai that much...). So, the plot focuses on a man who dies and his soul is transfered into another man's body, who happened to have the same name. The guy wants to go back to his family, but it is kind of hard for anyone to believe him. So, that far, it was funny, sad, dramatic, tragic and had a good amount of mystery to keep the interest high. However, and this is my only regret about this drama, towards the ending, things went way off the track. It felt that the writers were losing grip of the story and where it was heading. But the last episodes, especially the 17th were such a disappointment. I was about to give a way too low rating to this drama because of the way the story had turned out. And then, the last episode was just perfect. Everything went back to normal and we had a happy happy ending.
Now, about the performances, all the actors were really good and just perfect to express the right amount of emotion without overplaying it. Also, the costumes and settings were really nice as well.

A Korean Odyssey walks in the footsteps of Goblin, but with less cinematic value. Where the Goblin rocked with the visuals and special effects, creating the exact atmosphere for a fairy tale story, Korean Odyssey lucks good special effects and those scenes that would have made it perfect. They do make up with the mythology of the world they are introducing. Korean Odyssey has so many stories embeded in it, and whether the main story was just so so, with some intense romantic moments that were lost in the length of the drama, as they were too thinly spread out, the many characters that were likable and interesting helped keep it entertaining. Again, though, the romance was a bit tiring after a while and the drama itself is tiring as well. Finally, the performances were really good, as well as the costumes and settings, part of the special effects again. Also, the twist in the end was very original, so kudos for that too, as well as for the soundtruck.

Good Morning Call season two was definately not as good as the first season. The first one was funny, interesting and entertaining. However, the sequel was mainly based on the success of the first one, with the couple hardly having any romantic moment in the drama. Actually, their chemistry that was so well established in their high school years seemed to have vanished in their campus days. The second lead syndrome, was here as well, with a new boy this time around. He was actually quite good and the only thing interesting about this drama, if you don't take the performances that were pretty neat into account. Overall, Good Morning call 2 doesn't live up to it's prequels expectations and falls flat. So, 3 out of 10.

A music movie with some cases to be solved but not any big mystery. Actually, this one is just so so. At first, it was kind of interesting to see what was going to happen with the music club. The girl was cute and funny and her relationship with her childhood friend was adorable. Things got a bit stuck towards the end, with the way too cliché turn of events and the girl's struggles to master her instrument that eventually led us to the very ending. There was no romance in the movie, though the whole music club members dynamics were good enough to keep you occupied. The scene, finally, at the practice room when everything went from normal to chaos was a bit too long. So, overall, 5 out of 10.

Having been warned that the ending was horrible, I've watched this drama expecting the worse. But liking the idol from Crossgene and being a Suzy fan, I just had to watch this. And, truthfully, the ending wasn't that horrible, it was simply bad. No spoilers, but I don't really know what they wanted to achieve by that ending, did they wanted us to guess the mystery guy? Well, it wasn't that big of a mystery if you could make out the guy's physique, but anyway. The whole idea was interesting and the first half was funny and entertaining. The romance was so so with the girl always being uncertain of what she wanted. Plus, the whole age gap was just ignored by the end. Anyway, other than the romance that I didn't personally like, another thing that was a bit of a let down was the constant flash backs that kept happening towards the ending. Plus, repeating the same lines over and over again was just annoying. Other than that, it was an okay drama, with some funny moments, so 4 out of 10.

My girlfriend is a gumiho has a weird description that will confuse some if they're not that familiar with the whole nine tail fox myth. Still, it's a classic because if you overcome that and watch it, it is rewarding. The leading lady is amazing playing the humanised fox who tries to adapt to not only modern society but also the human way of behaving. Actually, the first half of the drama focuses on the comical element and it is actually very funny. Eventually, however, the romance gets a bit too tiring, as things start to be on repeat and eventually there are too many clichés. It's not that the two of them don't have chemistry, and actually the romance is cute and sweet, but it wasn't handled very well. The main song of the drama, on the other hand, was perfect for the whole supernatural themed and created the perfect mood for the drama. Finally, the second lead lady was kind of annoying, almost tiring in the end, though her acting was very good. Maybe it was the fact that she had that cold stare and she didn't blink (!). So, 6 out of 10.

Having watched the anime, I've thought that there will be no surprises here with the plot. However, the drama gets more in depth with the characters and the romance. Plus, the story wasn't complicated, as it explained the whole time travelling very well. Also, the small cases that each episode took upon were interesting and entertaining. The love triangle was seriously well made, however, the main love story kind felt like it was one sided rather than a passionate young love story. The leading lady was really good, and she actually was very perky and cute, reminding me rather of a character in a Korean drama than in a Japanese, as in the later the girls mostly act shyly and innocent. The resemblance with the anime character was there as well. Maybe my only problem was the last episode that was kind of a let down. So, 7 out of 10.

A good story, but lacked some intensity when it came to the romance. Though, there was a strong base on which a great love story could have been bloomed, however, the romance was bit weak. That was, probably, because the film makers focused more on the girl's bad family background and on the tragedy part of the movie, as well as the gang dynamics, the girl's drama towards her mother and the ones around her, and the pattern boy gets beaten-runs to the girl-girl takes care of him. Or, maybe the couple didn't have the chemistry that the love story needed. But, other than that, it wasn't that bad of a movie. It had some interesting parts, and the love story was okay overall. So, 5 out of 10.
