To be fair, this show is one of those shows where you have to shut off your brain and just let it happen. It's really cute and sweet and literally has no context and I kind of like watching something like that here and there sometimes because It really is just sweet. I like that the FL is just goofy and pretty sweet, the ML is handsome, pretty sweet and a simple guy tbh. I liked the friends, I like the family, I liked that there wasn't crazy insane drama and even if there "was", it wasn't terrible and it was just a fast and easy watch. Good story, nice acting, easy to like, good show overall.

I feel like a 8.5 for this show is pretty acceptable. Like it wasn't over the top but it wasn't crap. Lol.

It starts off with a girl that has a traumatic past that goes through something mentally and it sucks because she doesn't know what she needs to do or how to help it in any way. You have a business man that really just minds his own, has a funny assistant, has a strained relationship with his brother and all in all, this show is like What's Wrong With Secretary Kim but like...not as dramatic honestly. Lol. The two cross each other because of fate really and the rest is kind of history. The perks of this show is the female lead is sweet and adorable, hard working and understanding. The male lead tries to be aggressive and mean but he's really sweet, has a soft spot for the FL and even when he's trying to be tough, he cares for her and I love that for them. LMAO. At first things are a little put off because of misunderstanding and your average bickering but the chemistry they had and evolved into was wonderful and the kisses were...*chefs kiss*; also the side stories, not even bad. I also LOVE that the girl that had a crush on the ML didn't come and try to be a home wrecker lol love when it's not toxic.

The acting was great! I personally have never seen the main leads in any shows but they did fantastic and I like that they clicked together. I liked the brother a lot more in Girlfriend because he wasn't a jerk but he played a good actor because you couldn't tell who he was actually helping. I also liked the best friend, she was great in Go Go Squid, great in this show too. So all in all, I liked everyone and everything.

The music was sooo nice. Like so nice. I really liked that they timed the instrumentals perfectly; it's a rare occurrence for that.

You know what? I rarely rewatch shows, but I think I just might. They were honestly so sweet together, had great kisses, were not toxic at all and they really were just trying to do what they need to do for each other and I dig that. So overall, a great show. A fluffy kind of show with a cliche storyline but you know what I say, old but gold in my book.

Don't get me wrong, this is a good show. Not a great show at all. Should not have been 31 episodes, seriously. It has a pretty interesting story when you read about it, it's based off a manhua, which from my experience, shows that are, happen to never disappoint me and honestly, the chemistry between the main leads is wonderful and outrageous and it literally makes your heart swoon. It starts off with a girl that's just trying to live her life and make a living but things never happen to go her way, she tells a little white lie to make it through life here and there, but honestly, who doesn't? Then you have a rich male lead who happens to hate liars due to a past trauma and honestly, then it ends up your average CEO and assistant drama from there, which is never too bad. But then there's WAY too much going on in it. The second male lead is stupid and annoying and you just want to punch him in his butt chin because he's seeking some whack ass "revenge" you end up thinking the second female lead is gonna be awesome, a great friend and etc but she turns into a dumb obsessed with the male leads type and I HATE that, she deserved her own love story, not whatever stupid story they wanted to toss in. Then you have our great female lead, with a STUPID family that's useless and pointless and they honestly could have missed me with that part of the story tbh. But thank god for our male and female lead, the saviors of the show, if it wasn't for their relationship and romance, this show would just be a dump, but they really do make it up for the pointless, I cannot stress enough, pointless drama. Especially towards the end, talk about pointless. lol.

The acting was great, the ML was good at what he does, his emotions, his acting, the way he freely talked, this was meant for him. The female lead was clueless, but sweet, innocent and naive but she does it great, you know what I mean? They clicked, the chemistry was there, the kisses were amazing, the whole relationship really just made the show for me. I loved them, I loved these two together. As far as everyone else and the rest of the story? Didn't care for them, at all. I liked the best friend, the little sister, but everyone else can KICK ROCKS.

The music was fantastic, worth listening too and really fitting.

Overall, I just can't put myself through to watching this drama again, I'll probably rewatch any scene our main leads are in and their romance factors and watch every kiss or just cute scene with them but the WHOLE show? Miss me with that tbh. I felt like I was watching some kiss and slap Thai drama, I was like "WHAT KIND OF THAIANESE DRAMA AM I WATCHING???" Overall, I'm glad I watched it. I'm happy to push through because it was so romantic in those aspects and they made me click with them. It started slow, got draggy and those are downfalls. But the COUPLE WAS AMAZING. SO 10/10 FOR THEM, 8/10 for every other POS that made me mad in this show.

Wow, is all I can say.

Thriller/Mystery drama's are not something I watch often, but when I do, it takes a lot for me to commit and do it and when I do; I hope that it's worth it. It's been a while since I've watched a mind blowing K-Drama to be honest and I can say that I didn't know what I was getting into when I started Flower of Evil, but I saw a clip and immediately I was sucked in to something I will never regret watching in my entire life.

The synopsis in itself is already a rollercoaster, even though this is similar to a lot of other mystery/thriller/crime dramas; you don't really know you'll be invested into something even more mind blowing and emotionally tolling. You have a man that's the perfect husband, father, worker. You have a woman that's the perfect wife, mother and partner in general. They are both hard working, they met randomly by fate one day and the rest is history, their love is absolutely mind blowing and just plain...impeccable. But the male lead has a past, an unknown one. And unfortunately sometimes, you can't run away forever, especially when your demons are not only haunting you mentally, but then they start doing so physically. So you're going to go through what it's like to love someone but want to protect them no matter what happens, you're going to see that some people will go to the end to protect their own even though it's putting themselves on the line, you're going to see what it's like to be abandon by those who love you most and what it's like to be looked at like a monster. There' s so many ups and downs in this show but it's one of the best journey's I've completely been on. The love they had was wonderful, the characters that helped, the officer team, everything was just a nice flow of things.

Let me tell you, this is one of the best acting I've seen in such a long time. I love the raw emotions you got to witness between every single character; but you're taking so many veteran actors and actresses and putting them into something that they made just pure genius. The emotion and control that Lee Jong Gi has is amazing, the strong, bold character that Moon Chae Won played and the CHEMISTRY the two had, is absolutely everything. There was a prefect balance of their love and the show. The daughter was a fantastic aspect. The bad characters were so good at being bad. The reporter was a nice spice; the sister being added into the twist. The way the detective team carried themselves; if this show doesn't win rewards for the story, the ACTING will for sure win something.

The music was wonderful, I loved the timing that they had. I'm obsessed with the OST that Shin Yong Jae put together for this; everything about it is beautiful, raw and emotional all in one and that's how this show will leave you feeling.

Overall, this show was amazing. It's worth watching and rewatching within seconds. I actually binged this show and woke up just to rewatch the last 2 episodes because I couldn't get enough. The ending was quite bittersweet but I felt the craziest thing while watching it and I've never watched a show where I was so satisfied with the 2nd to last episode that I couldn't stopped there. I was literally so satisfied how this show played out and where it went that I'm absolutely mind blown at this beautiful master piece. My heart ached with the emotions of the characters, I cried and was angry all in one. And that's what a good drama is. One that you cannot stop thinking of and that was this for me. This really made me realize how much I love watching Asian Dramas in general. This was so good.

Isn’t it just so disappointing when a show has so much potential and then it suddenly all goes down hill? I was like wow, this show isn’t too bad, it was easy to watch, and I really wanted it to keep going because it was good but then it’s pretty over the top and over dramatic which is not a big deal because that’s what you sign up for but it’s also so far fetched and ridiculous like so many flashbacks are pointless. The FL is cool, she’s not a bad actress but her character was so cool and then she went soft on me. The ML lead, could use some more lessons but he’s okay, but how did he go from having a girl phobia to having a one night stand literally all in one sitting? Also the best friend in love with the actress, dude was wild; like chill out my kind sir. Between the back story, like her dad and her sister and the boys parents, just the melodrama of the family, the mystery but the random things in one, it really kills the mood. Don’t get me started on the dramatic parts because I’m like “yikes” but it’s not a terrible show. Definitely a filler show that you have to enter without expecting much at all. I wouldn’t rewatch it but I don’t regret watching it at all.

ENGLOT FOREVER

Honestly, this show is so cheesy, I JUST LOVE IT.

For those of you that don't follow Miss Grand, that is absolutely okay! You have 2 girls that have great chemistry in every which way, it outlines the life of being a beauty queen and it shows the life of being not just that but a regular everyday person. It shows friendship, love, heartbreak and challenges all in one. I love the back stories, I love everyone together, I love everything about this tbh.

Engfa and Charlotte are doing amazing, they are naturally easy going and have wonderful chemistry in general so for the show to portray that for them, I love everything about that. The other girls as well, they're amazing friends in real life so just all of them together is a wild ride.

I'm a fan of the music lmao plus Engfa has a wonderful voice!

Because it's so quick and easy, it's worth rewatching. I go back and rewatch episodes often in general so I'm down for it.

Overall, I'm both glad and thankful that Miss Grand did this for these girls, I love the opportunities they give them and continue to help them grow as individuals so that's really what makes this worth it.

*PSA*
I would just like to let you guys know that I decided to watch this again randomly in the middle of the night and I cried just as hard as I did the first time and it was still, so good. LMAO.

For something that was 2 episodes long and was honestly as long as a movie; it really hit me in the feels in all aspects. It's multiple stories into one if you're into that, which to me, I usually hate because I like when there is one focus but in reality, it was all very fitting and I absolutely adored this show in every way.
-It starts with a girl that's grown, she's just trying to live her life but also satisfy her mom and her life because that's the only person/family she has and sometimes you would ruin your own life for the people you love. She ends up getting hurt and things really unravel and man. It's crazy.
-It follows a girl that is just trying to live her dream but she gets did dirty and gets it pinned on her as if she was the problem.
-Two little kids that are so sweet and cute together but no matter what age you are, you'll always go through trials and tribulations because really, that's just how life works.

The acting was extremely spot on, I want to give a huge shout out to my girl Seo Hyun because I'm a huge girls generation fan in general but her acting was AMAZING. The amount of emotion she showed and expressed and her acting was just very fitting. I loved the kids, very mature and professional. I loved the mom. I loved the musician, she was honestly a bad betch. Loved it.

Music was AMAZING. I'll have to go out and download it because it was so soothing to the ears.

Would I rewatch it? Hell yeah. Especially if I need a good cry. I didn't think it was going to hit me like that so honestly, it was all good. Oh but it's not about Dracula so sorry you vampire lovers. Lol. It's used more as a metaphor.

Overall, this show must've been really good to me because it just really hit home. Being someone that's Asian and LGBT is hard in general, but when you're growing and you want to involve your parents/family in your life, things are even more difficult because you try to have a standard for them but you're also trying not to lose yourself in the process. So that section of it just really pulled me in and hit my heartstrings. The rest of the story was the same, you have a young love and you have mistreatment with another character. All of it is very fitting because it hits you with like a throwback of when you had your first heartbreak/loss. For something so short, it really just had all around crazy emotions for me. The scenes were beautiful. The acting was awesome. The story was great. I suggest if you have 2 hours to spare when you're bored and need something to watch, to watch it.

I hate to say it, but I actually extremely liked this show despite all the negative reviews and comments; it's truly not a bad show. It's literally such a quick watch and it's easy going that you'll be at the end in no time. The only thing is when you come into this show, please don't expect anything heavy and don't come with high expectations because it's literally a light web drama that wasn't fully developed but honestly they executed it in their own way. To each their own watching this show though but I liked every single character, Lee Hong Ki played such a great annoying character, it was fantastic. I also really liked Jung Hye Song, she's actually not a terrible actress at all. I liked the click between the two, I liked the the side characters; like the friends and I liked the family. The plot twist were actually not terrible at all, it added a little spice. Everything was purely entertaining and there was no huge drama, no meloness, so honestly this show was awesome to me and nice for just a filler. It was so good to watch and the OST was amazing; I downloaded it right off the bat. So give this show a watch, it's truly pretty good.

Coming into this show, I'm not sure what I expected or what I wanted out of it. I knew it was a melodrama and I naively thought it was just another youth drama but in all honesty, it was so much more than that. Park Si Eun and Yoon Chan Young are a phenomenal pair of an actor and actress and I truly cannot wait to see what the future holds for them when they grow because in every show I've seen them in, they've wowed me to no end. You truly do have a timid boy and a girl that's just out there and you toss them together and they're made perfect for each other but honestly, life is not perfect and you will go through trial and error and this show pulls at your heart strings to what happens in everyday life and what it feels like to be alone and confused and not sure what you're doing with anything honestly. It shows ups and downs and it's crazy because for a special that's 4 episodes and purely as long as a 2 hour movie, you literally watch and see so much with twist and turns and it blows your mind. This show was wonderful, definitely a filler that surprises you with a nice OST, great acting and just nicely set story that I enjoyed. For 2 hours, definitely put your time into this and watch it.

Honestly, what a legit show. THE CHEMISTRY AND KISSES ARE EVERYTHING. And I couldn't help but crack up. I just got my wisdom teeth out and this was really binge worthy but I took my time and it was SO WORTH IT. I really needed a filler show and this was where it was at. It seemed a little odd and far-fetched in the beginning but if you really give it a chance, it's actually such a cute and legit show. Like, WHAT IS THIS COMET? LMAO. Everything kind of moves a little fast to so things are just happening in the blink of an eye but it's such an easy watch. You have two people that meet by fate, honestly. Things just really bring them together and not only that but friendship comes together as well and honestly, the rest is history. It has your fashion, it has your ups and downs and it has a lot going on definitely but in reality, it's just a pure good show.

I loved the ML and FL, they were cute, it was fluffy, their chemistry was just fantastic right off the bat and they really clicked. I love the co-workers, I love the friends, I love the families and even the exes aren't even too bad, annoying, but not bad at all.

The music is great!!!

Overall, I think I would rewatch this show. Lol. The two main leads make the show, they're cute, they match, it's fluffy, they're honestly really sweet and even in the moments that they tried to make mellow and dramatic, they really just worked out and worked well together. I loved all the characters and what they played, I loved the ups and downs. This show is honestly just so very cute. So 10/10 for me, if you need a filler show when you have nothing better to do and you really just want some romance in your life, this is where it is at.

In my honest opinion, I think I'm definitely going to have to say I think this show is a 10/10. It's not PERFECT but like it is in a way of fueling you with pure nostalgia. I read a ton of reviews on the show and I was really going back and fourth with if I should watch it because I hate misunderstandings, I hate slow romance, I hate just anything that causes misunderstanding for no reason tbh. Lol. So you would think I don't watch a ton of shows but I've watched 100's of shows and I still come back to this kind of youth/coming of age type of drama. Though this one was different than others in my opinion. I honestly just could not stop watching it. So good. Sooo good. Youth dramas and just Chinese dramas in general just do a great job of taking this nostalgic story buried deep in your memories and bringing it to life but putting a twist on it because you're watching your "what if" but I don't know, maybe that's just me. Lol. That's how I feel. So even though it feel short in some parts, like the end and it kind of dragged, I just liked the experience tbh. Lol. That's what I REALLY was in it for.

The story was about a girl that has been secretly in love with a boy that's like boy wonder to her. He's smart, handsome, the whole package and she's smart, quiet and pretty and they are just a good combo. She's really strong, not ditzy in anyway, she holds her own and I love that about her, WE LOVE A STRONG FEMALE LEAD. Lol. But this is the nostalgic part for me that I can relate to so much that I instantly could not help myself from tearing up a little bit is that feeling of having your first crush/first love that has no idea who you are. Like I think everyone has had that ONCE in their life where this person has no idea you even exist but you admire them from so far because they're the next best thing to sliced bread, I kid you not dudeee. That feeling just hit me, made me laugh, cry and reminiscence on that time where I was just young, dumb and carefree. Like "what is love?" ya know what I mean, but that's what I love about this show because it takes the chances of being a nobody, to a somebody, going through ups and downs like your average relationship and just...living. Man, what a feeling. Lol.

I loved the acting. I definitely get what everyone is saying though because the ML played, I wouldn't say a jerk but he was naive and young. Lol. He was a clueless boy that really was just a boy in my opinion and what I mean from that is he doesn't think of this love and just doesn't think too deep. He's smart and living his life and just living brightly. I LOVE THE FEMALE LEAD. SHE PLAYED SO WELL AT THIS CHARACTER. NOT A PANSY BUT NOT TOO BAD, SHE WAS SO FITTINGGGGG. I also liked the friends, I hated the secondary characters, the acting was just fitting for this kind of storyline.

The music is cool, I didn't mind it.

When I'm feeling blue and down or I just need a stretch, I think this is definitely a rewatch. I think this is honestly just an extremely good show. I dig it. 10/10. For sure.

If you're hesitant on watching this show because you've seen the same concept over and over again; definitely push pass the hesitation because this show is one for the books. But to be honest, sticking Weir into a role back to his roots is the best choice any director can do because he does a damn good job at it. Stephany also played an awesome character and you'll live for every single part she speaks english because it is hilarious but awesome all at the same time. The story sounds so cliche and the concept sounds like you've seen it a million times but it's actually a great one; there's random parts where there's so much going on but the cool part is that it never strays away or makes you not want to watch it. The give screen time to the main roles and the chemistry is absolutely amazing, they don't down play the drama in any way but they also don't make it overcome the whole story. Everyone played such an important part; towards the end it seemed like a lot but honestly, it's just a good show overall. You'll laugh and feel yourself tearing up and you'll cheer with the whole team and sing and dance along to the music because it's just a good ol time. Definitely worth the watch; shout out to Thippy for subbing this bad boy.

I don't care what anyone else has to say because this show is a master piece. Those of you that take drama's so technical are wild because it's honestly a TV show so I'm sorry if they don't follow common laws and everything is over the top and dramatic; it's a KOREAN DRAMA. I had a hard time with L's acting at first but it definitely picked up but Go Ara was phenomenal with her emotions and so was Sung Dong. Every character in this show played an amazing part and I was obsessed from the very first episode. This show took real life issues and turned them into situations where we all wish we could help. Someone has been or seen a situation like this and this show tackled it because in real life we really can't tackle it sometimes and that's why people suffer. That's why there are so many abuse, molestation and etc cases. This show was high in emotion because every episode teared me up and usually I rush a a show but I couldn't even imagine rushing this one because every single second was so important to me and the basis of the story. So I'm sorry to those of you that have an opinion about not liking it, to each their own, but if you want a funny, intense, emotion wringing drama with the basis of connection between characters, this is the one for you and trust me, I've seen a lot of drama's and guess what, this is also A DRAMA.

I didn't watch the movie and I totally understand why people would drop this show but also at the same time, I kinda feel bad for the people that did or were underwhelmed by the show because honestly, it wasn't bad. Like it was slow and you're like ugh I've seen this a thousand times but really, it was different as well and it was just plain good to me. In a way, it was predictable of course because it's about politicians and CEO's and all that jazz lol but the plot twist lies into the personal relationships and families and that's what really took it home for me. The ML isn't a bad guy and he never was really. He was childish and kinda funny in every aspect lol. Something about family dramas really get to me and I just enjoy them in general when it's the right kind of family if that makes sense, when you're actually family. I liked the FL, her plot twist was out of this world and after that, I could not stop crying! LOL. I liked the kids, they were sweet, annoying and just had their own lives going on. The bad characters weren't terrible. In a way, maybe it needed even more episodes to kind of develop more and span a little more. They took the romance aspect out of it so you can disregard that but the chemistry was still there, with all the characters and aspects. I liked the daughter, she just was not a bad kid. I liked the ups and downs and in the end, you don't end up disappointed at the fact that he stepped up to be a father when no one else did and that was crazy good. So if you're hesitating to watch this, I say, don't. It's good, packed with politics and drama of course, but family feels and love and it was honestly kinda satisfying in that stand point.

Read More

Honestly, what a hidden gem and treat this show is. I really didn't know what to expect to come out of this show and I'm not a huge fan of shows that are like body changing or time traveling but sometimes watching them here and there is kind of nice so it's something a little different.

Overall, the whole plot and story of this show was done wonderfully. You have a failing marriage and two people that loved each other dearly but when you're so used to someone or you adapt to situations, you really don't realize how much that person or moment meant to you and sometimes you really just let people down. I really felt for the main female lead because she fell into this loop of just average daily life while her husband was also trying to do his best but they slipped away and it was just an emotional whirlwind. The whole thing was a fabulous road to scale from going back into the past from the beginning and ending flashbacks, to what happened with her family and it was just all so emotional for me that I was literally crying every time there was tears, honestly. I could not help myself because I felt everything in that moment too.

Jang Nara happens to be one of my top favorite actresses, definitely like top 5 for me and she really didn't let me down, I actually absolutely loved every single character in this show with the parts that they played and it made it even more enjoyable especially with all the drama and feels.

Even the OST was wonderful, it was really fitting, even in moments when they were having fun.

I would definitely rewatch this if I need someone for my feels or when I really just want to watch a really great drama down the road and so I definitely recommend this show to anyone wanting to watch it and has been hesitant.
