I enjoyed the series. It was sweet and engaging. I found many great aspects to it. The emotions portrayed felt genuine. There was definitely some life lessons that could be learned. To be honest, I liked the the series as well as the ending but I found it difficult to really love it because of the female leads character. I enjoy drama just like anyone else and I can deal with misunderstandings and irritations quite well however the female lead character was really too much for me and she was in every sense an individual who appear to have a superiority complex, lacked trust and looked at others like they wanted what she had. Her character behavior almost made it hard to finish. She trashed the male lead for 90% of the series although it got a little better. This drama carried misunderstandings until the last episodes, which meant you get to watch the female lead be crabby for that long and I do mean crabby.

So so

So much but so little happened. The pacing was great. The cinematography was top notch. The acting was pretty good. The series length was decent considering the content. They really did well casting a strong female lead and it was refreshing to watch someone that wasn’t easily pushed over and was very smart. Now to the meat of it.

What I enjoyed about this series was that we had pretty consistent characters. I for one personally dislike characters that go back-and-forth. Most of the cast were perfect for their roles. The characters were pretty consistent with their stances on whatever it is they felt was right. For the most part I enjoy that the sisters at least attempt to stay loyal to each other. And I say attempt very cautiously. The series was upbeat and the fight scenes were great. The perfect part and it’s for me was that they broke from the norm and integrated the idea/concept of women remarrying. I absolutely love the support that the Sangay when the topic was introduced.

Well I disliked about this series was that it seem to lack intimacy. Although you could feel the chemistry between our two main leads it just seem to be somewhat flatlined or simply just not included. So if you’re looking for romance, please stop. You will get a genuine love but nothing more. Also it seem to omit the development of many other relationships. In truth it may the FL appear to be easily swayed after she enters the palace.

I read it this is it another 10 because it was fairly decent but they were many things that I didn’t like. First I feel that it really lacked some of the emotional components. It was also flooded with politics. I feel that it was not even be balanced. And lastly there was really no character development. Everyone stayed the same. I’m not saying that their characters are bad but they started with one mindset and series ended with these individuals having the same mindset. Sadly looking at some of the comments only validated my point. So in truth we end the series with the only innocent person being looked at in a negative light. That is evidence of zero growth.

Hidden Treasure

This series was such a bundle of sweetness. I honestly watched a few scenes multiple times. It was just that good. I absolutely loved the chemistry between the two main leads, it was authentic and really sweet. The plot was great and it was consistent throughout the series. I love the fact that there was no Flip-flopping back-and-forth. We didn’t have the senseless misunderstandings that often take place. It was honestly smooth sailing throughout this entire series aside from the usual things that come up in real life situation this series was great. I love the fact that the writers didn’t try to create problems after problems after problems but managed to stay true to their plot and realistic to real life situations without over complicating things. The acting was great. I have to admit that I loved the mother in this series. It was really refreshing to see a mom that was supportive and had zero villain tendencies. Overall I highly recommend this series. It does start out a little bit slow but as it picks up you will absolutely love it. The ending was perfect. This is an absolute rewatch for me.

Very Immature/characters overact on a big scale

This review is being written after 2 attempts at watching this series. In truth I forgot about it. It popped up again so I was like ‘hmm, let’s give a shot.” After 5 minutes I realized why I didn’t finish it the first time. From a mature persons perspective it’s terrible. From a teen perspective it may be cute. But alas, I’m not a teen and found it to be a train wreck. It was like one of those Disney teen shows, where teens are unsupervised in a home, the characters overreact and assume things out of thin air and also do ridiculous things that have you (the mature person) questioning the persons mental competency (like should she be left alone without supervision.)

While the overall concept/plot of the series was great the presentation of it left something to be desired. I made it through about 4 episodes before skipping to the end (TWICE).

Big fail for me!!!

The positive: The series was cute and fun to watch. It was upbeat and very warm. It reminds you of the happy welcoming place you go to and feel good. The acting was good. The overall plot was good.

The negative: the plot twist was not very good. Our big reveal in the middle of the series led to nowhere. The threw in another monumental event that altered the whole happy, sweet vibe. After that the manipulated the viewers emotionally and then changed their minds. The ending ruined the entire this. There were some loop wholes. We never find out what happened to finances. Things were just left unresolved.

I watched this series and I found it somewhat interesting and unique. It’s definitely different from all of the other shows that surround cooking. I also enjoyed the overall plot of this series. I must say that this is one of the first series that I have watched involving arranged marriage and change of fate that resolved itself so smoothly. I’ll be honest, I am really not a fan of series or movies that start off based on a lie but this series was unique in the sense that you didn’t feel that your main character was lying, there was no big dramatic moment as a result of it. It was just like nature took its course and everybody went with the flow because the flow was great. I really enjoyed it. I will say that the romance hashtag Should not be there. There wasn’t a significant amount of romance. In truth it was maybe about 5%. What you will see is good enough for you to watch it. If you’re in it for the romance you will be disappointed however if you’re in it for some motivation, some enlightenment and food you will absolutely enjoy this. I had a few good laughs as well.

The acting was great. The facial expressions and their personalities felt genuine.
The chemistry between the leads was OK. Although I felt like their relationship was more life coach and mentee rather than husband and wife.

It is very rare for me to review a movie but since there is no review here I thought I’d give it a shot.
Overall the movie was actually good. I didn’t expect much, as I watched it on YouTube but it was surprisingly good. That being said I was a bit surprised by the rating which is pretty low. Although this was not a perfect movie I found it to be quite refreshing. This is coming from a person that is a supreme nitpicker.

The movie revolves around a young stewardess who meets a man on her first flight. Their initial encounter was a bit rocky but impressionable. It focuses on her life as a stewardess and some of the hardships that she had to endure to get to where she was as well as her background but it also showed how they got to know each other and how their relationship developed over time.

It was short, sweet, funny and realistic. There characters were good people, truthful and genuine. There was no crazy people or stupid scenarios.

Overall, I was impressed. I liked and I wish it was longer. It left an impression and a desire to see where things would go. The ending was good as well. I gave it a 9 out of 10 because I found it enjoyable, definitely funny, the acting was believable and the situation was very realistic. The reason that I did not give it a full tin star is because I felt that it was too short to fully develop.

I decided to watch this because I am a total fan of the male lead. I’ve see. Him in action series before and he was amazing, I must admit he did not disappoint here either. As usual his acting was smooth. The series itself was a Nice action film. I saw another show like this but this takes on a Different spin. It’s your typical assassin in disguise series. Bad guy with a heart decides to be compassionate which doesn’t work out well for him in his profession. Pretty blood. If your looking for some gun fighting and fist fighting you might like this one. There not a significant relational element to it. Th ending is so so but not aweful.

This drama was very interesting. Although we are the family drama there was some mystery involved, revenge, plotting and redemption. I can honestly say that this is not a tradition of drama as it involves some situations that you don’t see often in drama. I really feel like it took a more personal approach to family issues in their effects on each member of the family. It also gives a new look at what family really means.

You’ll get teased up with this. You’ll get angry and you’ll get smiles. This series provoked all types of feels. Abandonment, new beginning, new loves, lost loves, family, disappointment, revenge, redemption.

What I like most about the drama is that our mail lees stay true to himself. He was smart, kind and sweet and he didn’t change based on circumstances he simply revealed what was already within him.
what I didn’t like about the series way the length of the series was some of the female lead behavior. I’m just gonna be honest here the reasoning skills or decision making skills just didn’t seem logical it sometime. Don’t get me wrong one of those dramas that they create conflict out of thin air or anything like that but it was a different type of annoyance. You know the one where you’re dating someone and you still hang around with someone because you’re hope you can be friends with him. That type of annoyance.

And last but not least the wardrobe and hairstyle for the FL was awful. I don’t normally comment on things like this but I got to be honest looking at her hair, in mushroom form, was crazy and distracting. Not only that, for 80% of the series this adult walked around with a backpack on like Dora the explorer. Yes I know it’s stupid to comment on it but after watching so many episodes you start wondering why is she wearing a backpack. she wasn’t going to school she just walked around all the time with his red backpack like it was part of her costume or something. I just really wish they would’ve dressed her better. It’s almost as if she acted with what she had on that day.

If you’re looking to laugh and cry you might like it.

I’ll be completely honest. The acting, plot, scenery were good but the logic behind choices was crazy. The series started off great. You were able to see all of the cast members in there you and how they developed over time. There was a special bond that happened and there was action and intelligence shown in each of the cast members. They seem to work together well but something happened as they got older. Things just seemed to fall apart immediately. The trust was out the window, along with loyalty and friendship.

I continued watching this series because it is more historical drama with a few romantic aspects to it and it’s what I enjoy. However I was so frustrated with it. I get the whole point of having a second lead and I understand that developing second lead syndrome is very common however this one was so different. The female lead spent more time on the screen with a second lead and that includes living together, fighting against bad people together, him rescuing her and defending her.

The man leaves were together for a few episodes and then they were apart or any ternity, during that time see if someone developed a family with someone else although it was that romantic it was still a family but she was still hung up on the moving who she had very little time with him so little interaction. That is what I do not like about it. I’m not sure if the writers just tried to make the leads be together just because but the logic is nuts. It essentially just has the female lead acting like an infatuated women.
I suppose it would’ve been better if they had given the male and female lead more screen time together but instead that time was given to the second male lead and the main female lead which made you want them together and also feel their connection. Most of the time I was shaking my head at her.

I mean I know you can’t help who you love but the writers left human logic and emotion out of the script or maybe they just disregarded the competence of the viewer. We humans find it hard to not develop an inkling of feelings or emotions for an individual that we live with for three years, that we fight alongside and defended for three years, a person that cared for you, claimed you and would sacrifice all for you.

All this was done for for our female lead but she was like aaanh! I will repeat second lead seemed to get more screen time, have more interaction and greater chemistry but the writers decided on a ship that had no foundation.

What is his was pretty good. It was short and sweet. I really like the overall concept of the series. How do you know the series revolves around a female who is left at the altar and ends up living as a roommate with her ex fiancé‘s roommate. The two developed a unique friendship that transforms overtime. What I like most about the series was that was unique and showed the struggle of an individual with dreams, how they are motivated and demotivated and how that affect their lives. It was like a series about your personality, your character and making the most of it.

But at least not like about the series with that the female lead was super annoying and borderline immature. Although somethings were done when she was somewhere in suffocated it still seemed like she should’ve known better. This type of thing happened only once but her character was too much. Just imagine going somewhere and meeting someone that is over the excited , overly talkative and has a problem with speaking with boundaries.

I absolutely think the series could have been better if there was a modification to the female lead behavior. But because she was annoying in a please shut up kind away I with a little bit put off.

Overall the plot of the series seemed really great, the builder of events for the male lead was really good. If you can tolerate the female lead doing random things that a teenager would do then you may like this.

This is a condensed remake Japanese version of fated to love. Same events, same plot. The was condensed to 10 episodes although it seems to be missing an ending or not. If you’re looking for something to watch you may enjoy it but if you’re looking for something heartfelt it’s a bit lacking,

Comparatively speaking this one is not that great. The acting is a bit more exaggerated. I’ve watched three versions and this one is okay but it was left with a bit of a sad ending. Chemistry is not so great. You won’t get as many laughs as you would with the other versions.

I really wanted to like this series a lot more. It was okay but had the potential to be even better. I thought it was like the series “while you were sleeping.” But that’s not the case. It does have an interesting twist to it but the acting/script or chemistry was off. It really just seemed strange to me. It felt like something was missing but I couldn’t put my finger on it and because of that it just seem like the entire series was a flop for me. I know many people may disagree with me but the first few episodes was really good but then something went wrong.

Let’s start with the fact that our female lead is looking for clues to an accident to prove her families innocence. She discovers a piece of evidence that opens a whole new door and without thought she blames on me or lead who was just as young as she was when it occurred.

One thing that I do not like is the forced conflict. You know the type of conflict where the persons reaction is a bit far-fetched for the situation or when they point blame at someone who is absolutely not at fault. But they break up with them and blame them and maybe even slap their face like they were at the root of it all. I couldn’t like it after that.
