Tea Rex
This first episode sets up all the main players and plot motivations. It has some humorous moments, but overall feels like the royal version of Boys Over Flowers... If his parents were forcing them to get married instead trying to keep them apart. Not bad, not great. Kinda boring.

U-Prince: The Lovely Geologist Episode 1
1 people found this review helpful
The first episode is adorable fun. The lead, T-Rex, is a cute puppy who sometimes reveals a little more manly side. He's knowledgeable about dinosaurs, knows what he likes, and seems comfortable being his quirky self. The female lead, BaiPlu, is more straight-laced and finds herself annoyed by this cute pup when he shows up at her house wanting to dig for fossils. A good set up episode, introducing all the main characters and quickly establishing the roles and relationships of the various players. A little stalkery to start, the doe-eyed innocence of the lead makes it cute and not creepy, and it's clear that BaiPlu is more annoyed than anything else.
All around enjoyable and I can't wait to watch more.

Enjoyable. Park Min Young's ponytail is life! This should be a very fun ride watching the pompous CEO learn how to see other people as individuals ands not just personal assets

First episode is subtle and slow, and still pretty sexy even though our leads don't meet until the end.
If you're someone who skipped the piano parts in Cheese in the Trap, this drama is likely not for you

This is gorgeous and beautifully shot. I can't wait to see where the story and the characters go.

I enjoyed the first episode, but it was a little sad. It does a good job of setting up the characters quickly. I like the way it ties their lives in to the game. Feels a bit like the baseball movie For Love Of The Game in the set up and mood.

So basically the leads are being sent on missions to bang strangers picked for them by a mysterious game master named Wolf. There is horrible dubbing on everybody because nobody speaks the languages of the countries they're pretending to visit. I'm curious enough to maybe check out episode 2, but it's pretty crazy and not really in a good way, lol

Memories of the Alhambra Episode 1

Special effects and camera work are lovely. Started very strong and had moments of humour. A very strong start to what looks like it will be an interesting ride.

Mama Fairy and the Woodcutter Episode 1
0 people found this review helpful
This drama is shaping up to be a sweeter simpler version of the fantasy genre. Similar to Hwayugi with supernatural creatures wandering around in everyday modern Seoul, but less angsty and hyper. Cute characters, a bit of mystery and copious amounts of coffee porn make this a delightful set up episode to what will likely be a fun and engaging (all be it forgettable) drama

Nothing really exciting about this episode, nothing really off-putting. Lots of faces I recognize and enjoy. The story idea seems fun and hopefully gets told will. It's very "Summer School" with Mark Harmon.

Doc and Tata are adorable. Jane is lovely too and I'm curious where the story with Saifah is going to go. The other two girls are very over the top and embarrassing to watch, but still fun. I'm enjoying the light, cute story so far.

The cuteness is intense. The idea that Seo Kang Joon and Esom could convincingly portray average humans is mind boggling. They are delightful in this first episode. The starting set up and then the flashback to college is all fantastic. SKJ is a complete dork and its lovely. Esom is just an average, pleasant girl. They are adorable and I have high hopes for this drama to continue being charming all the way through.

This episode ended and I immediately wanted more. Great character development, Hoya with pink hair, more revelation into the past three years, and lots more interaction between our leads. This drama puts afresh twist on the type of amnesia we saw in 50 First Dates. Very cute.

This had an adorably cute start to the romance with a wickedly tragic middle and a mild tragic continuance.The characters seem interesting and mostly likeable. I'm very interested to see where it goes from here

So cute, so sweet. Our OTP has movement forward and so do our other couples. Still don't think the step brother couple fits with the rest of the story. Neither character seems to attend the school which is the central focus, or belong to the football club the other couples all stem from. It's a weird addition.
