I really enjoyed the first episode. What I thought after watching it was that it will take some time for the leads to fall for each other. However I must say things seem to be going much faster than expected.
The pace has been great so far but that worries me. I'm not sure how they'll succeed in dragging it out till ep 32. *_*
Anyway, great to see Lee Dong Wook and Lee Da Hae back together! I love them both since My Girl and they have both matured as actors. Lee Dong Wook got hotter and Lee Da Hae seems to be getting prettier as she is aging. :)
As for the plot- it seems interesting but I can see it going down the business genre more towards the middle or end. Or if they run out of ideas soon (as they have already used up quite a few in the first two episodes) this will end as an another makjang. Ah, well.
I already want to shoot the old man Lee Joong Goo. When he was describing the dog, I was like "You raised Cha Jae Wan like that!!". Cha Jae Wan needs to see that his foster father/uncle/guardian has manipulated him all these years. Who knows what the truth really is....
I like watching Cha Jae Wan developing feelings for Ah Mo Nae. It's a bit too soon but hopefully there will be a lot of romance later on? *fingers crossed*
For some reason Seulong's acting is bugging. He isn't that great. He should just stick to singing instead of acting.
Looking forward to ep 3. This drama is addictive. It's the kind I would likely be marathoning. :D

Right now, everyone just seems out of character to me. I guess they have to keep doing crazy things to keep the viewers interested. -_-
It's my first time watching a long historical drama so this stuff is both repelling and interesting to me.
Maha's parts were boring. They don't need to drag it out so much. The kid wanting to seek revenge is quite far-fetched. The Empress Dowager is the biggest b*tch in the world to have brought up a child with such polluted thoughts. She basically just robbed him of his childhood and innocence.
Wang Yoo being treated that way was heartbreaking for me. :( :(
I always cheer for the underdog- which he is one right now.
I wonder why they are trying to wedge the Emperor & Seung Nyang apart so much. Is it supposed to be about how they'll overcome everything against all odds and such? BTW I REALLY need him to stop drinking. He seems to be developing some sort of a brain disorder though? All those hallucinations are surely a sign of his to-be death. Or just the signs of his over-drinking. I hope he doesn't fall ill and die (which I am sure he would).
The cliffhanger was interesting although I do not think they will let the Emperor kill him off so easily. I want the next episode NOW.

I liked this episode. Seung Nyang shined as usual in her usual badass self. What she did with the servants was excellent.
It was good to see the Goryeo king back on his throne. When he fired his corrupt ministers, it reminded me of the beginning. *sigh*
I knew that the time jump was inevitable and coming but I am disappointed with the way things are right now. Ta Hwan is a drunkard and still not married to Seung Nyang. >.<
That's fine but they are turning him into a psycho now.
Either he:
a) Recovers soon, marries Seung Nyang and lives happily
or
b) Marries Seung Nyang but remains a drunkard and dies
Plus now that Maha hates his half-brother, we would be having more sabotaging/poisoning/fighting and rivalries will grow. As if we didn't have enough of it already. -_-
Please, someone shoot the Empress Dowager. I hate her more and more every episode. She has turned into the cliched evil mother-in-law that most Kdramas have.
I want this drama to be as good as it was before. :(

Beyond the Clouds Episode 9

OMG!!! I need to watch the next episode NOW. It stopped at a very crucial point. Now Young Won finally learns the truth la-la-la-la. I usually get happy at truths and revelations because they make the plot more enjoyable.
It's amazing how this drama hasn't bored me till now whereas most dramas run off steam after ep 6-7. I love how the writer is taking things one step at a time and yet the pace seems nice.
I love Young Won and Eun Soo a lot!! They are my OTP.
I also sort of root for Jae In & Kang Jae together. They form a good bad guys pair. Kang Jae is too awesome for words. For once, we have a hidden bad guy with a conscience. He's bad but not entirely bad. His actions aren't excusable but I at least understand where it all comes from. :)

I felt bad for Doo Rim and Kang Ju in this episode. My complaint is that it became serious too soon. They should have dragged out the cuteness for two episodes more rather than letting it on this track.
I would like Kang Ju to find out out Doo Rim's identity soon. Guess they're saving that up for later.
BTW nobody stopped Kang Ju and Doo Rim from living together, right? They can just not get married and stay together LOL. Won't that work? :P

I think there will be some sacrifices made in the future episodes. I don't want this drama to become "I love you but if we stay together you'll die so I'll just pretend to hate you" crap.
I am sure there must be some cure to the curse. The ghost seems nice to me rather than a bad one. She's absolutely gorgeous. I have to give her for that. :P
The scene where Doo Rim was leaving was kind of sad. I want to see how Kang Joo will react after he finds out about the real identity of Yi Kyun/Doo Rim.

I liked this episode. It had a lot of funny moments. I however find certain parts of it slow and boring too.
I really hate Yi Kyung. I don't want her to be back and be a hurdle between Doo Rim & Kang Joo's relationship. -_- Her mother is also such a bitch.
The scene where Doo Rim and oppa go grocery shopping was so cute!! The lady at the store called them 'newlyweds' haha. :D
Also, Doo Rim is so dense that she watched the entire movie without realizing who it was next to her. :P

OMFG! How is this drama so cute? I love that we are getting all cutesy romantic moments between the leads. I am liking Hong Ki more and more.
The characters seem to have no depth and the show seems a bit low budgeted but who cares? As long as they keep the comedy and romance going, I'm happy. :)
I loved watching Kang Joo get jealous in this and the previous episode. It's cute when Doo Rim also gets jealous. Haha. :D The poor 2nd lead guy always has this expression, "Huh?"
BTW I hate Yi Hyun. She's such a bitch like her mother. I want them both to die lol.
I am interested in the curse part and can't wait to see how it plays out. I want to watch Ep 5 NOW!!

I thought the first episode was rough and might improve eventually. However this just went downhill and I totally found myself losing interest.
The first ep had so many cute moments in the flashbacks. I couldn't care less about the couple in the present time. Makes me yawn and I hit the fast-forward button without regrets.
Now I'm going to just finish the drama to find out the ending. At least Mimi and Changmin are pleasing to look at. :P

Ok, so it's been a while since I've seen a Kdrama romcom and this one falls under the category that happens to be my favorite!!
It has ghosts, supernatural elements, romance and comedy all in one. Kind of reminds me of a darker yet more playful version of Master's Sun.
I spent the entire episode laughing my head off at the romantic scenes between the two leads. That kiss was the best accidental kiss I've ever seen. :P I want more of it and I can feel the chemistry between both actors and it really makes me excited like a fangirl. :D
I actually had no hopes from this show. Since it seems to be getting better, I hope I can expect something from the future episodes.
The cliches are all enjoyable and I am curious about the curse. The ghost looks cool too. :)

The second episode just as funny as the first one. I loved it!! Though it is a bit slow at times, the rest of it is entertaining enough.
I was thinking of how the cast doesn't seem attractive as compared to the first season but viola! There three new handsome guys who were introduced in this episode. I love them all!!
It seems like Koreans have a talent with school dramas. I always enjoy their school dramas. Anyway, the fun part of the drama is figuring out 'Who is the husband?' just like the first one! I think it's kind of obvious after this episode but I'm still expecting to be surprised.
P.S. The 'kiss' scene was totally PG-13ish. I was laughing out loud while watching it. It was funny and kind of hot. Haha. I think everyone should watch that scene. It's not always we get such a scene in a Korean drama. ;)

I had almost next to no plans of watching the sequel to Reply 1997. I loved the first season immensely and it seemed like this wouldn't live upto those expectations.
The first episode proved me very wrong. The characters are likable and the cast is great. The humor seems fresh and the best part is that even though it's different, it still seems to have the charm of its predecessor season. I hope they will keep the mood of the drama consistent.
Luckily I watched this episode after the second one also came out so I watched both of them back to back! It was one of the most hilarious episodes I have seen in a while. Daebak!

After too much of in-your-face romantic moments between the leads, this episode was a step up! The things shown in the latest episode didn't seemed forced and I think the story flowed more smoothly.
The drama continues to be slow but it is not boring anymore. The excitement I felt while I watched the first episode seems to be back now. The previous two episodes wavered my interest but all's well now.
Right now, my top favorite in this drama is Won Bin. I've never seen him act (or maybe I have since he seems familiar) and he has completely won me over!! I wish he was the main lead. Things would have been 10X more interesting. Haha *wishful thinking*.
I think the next episode will be interesting. Things seem to be in forward motion than remaining stagnant.

When I read negative reviews for a drama I tend to keep little expectations. I have been putting this off for so long but gender bender seem quite funny to me so I watched the first episode. However, I loved it! It was quite cute and the eye candy is great.
It doesn't need to have a very good plot because I happen to like cutesy stuff. Hope it won't become too boring later on!
This drama reminds me of Coffee Prince and You're Beautiful all into one.

This episode is a huge let down compared to the first one. Sure, the first episode had its boring moments but the rest of the stuff was interesting. This episode felt like it was the same stuff all over again and there was nothing interesting.
The only thing I liked was probably that the decent amount of screen time the leads had together. Their moments are sweet but so far their acting hasn't pulled me in. I won't say the romance seems forced but it doesn't flow as freely as in the other Korean dramas. I am kind of feeling meh on the romantic front.
The secondary characters seem really poorly written so far. There are too many tangled plotlines and characters going back and forth and so far I have not really liked any of them yet except for Minhyuk's charater.
Of course, I'll keep watching till the end simply because I hope that it'll get better since it's too early on to say much. :)
