As for the actors, Shin Sung Rok is just the perfect guy to play Seo E Do, he was able to perfectly depict the character of an eccentric, funny, sweet, and adorable guy all at the same time. He is the very reason why I continued on watching the show in the first place! Without him I don't think this drama will be able to be as interesting as it is. Go Won Hee playing the character of Min Ye Rin, she's just as funny as he is! Playing an old ahjumma in a young woman's body, and bickering the whole time reminds me of her in Eulachacha Waikiki! The both of them have good chemistry too! I had my doubts with the pairing at first because of the age gap and like the height but they just proved me wrong!!
The OSTs were nice and sweet. It perfectly blends during the funny and sweet scenes, but nothing much too memorable for me.
Overall, the drama is as weird as its characters and it will make you question a lot of things but if you let it take you and just enjoy you'll find yourself loving it for its funny, light and meaningful nature.

The scenarios are very typical overused k-drama type with the getting drunk, piggy back ride, and more. The interaction of the characters seemed odd and rushed for me. Side characters are too cringey for my taste as well.
Therefore I'm rating this a 5.5/10. The Night of the Comet was underwhelming for me. The only good episode here for me was the last episode where the characters and plot line got seriously substantive and emotional. I loved the part where he said "parallel lines do not cross but hearts that have crossed will never be apart" it was trully heartwarming that it finally gave this drama a chance to redeem itself a little bit.
The idea of parallel universe and alter ego was very fresh and cute how I wish they plotted the story line better! T_T

I liked how the storyline was clean, simple and straight to the point! Not much conflict, nor unnecessary drama just the way a summer high school movie vibes should feel.
The plot was great from start to middle but towards the end, it felt lacking and a bit rushed. Some of the details weren't given to us, i'm guessing the writer intended that for us to conclude on our own?
The casting was great too! The story out worked well even just by revolving the story around the four characters.
Kim Yoo Jung was perfect for the role, and looking at the two boys, i'm just squealing!
Overall, 20th Century Girl was able to deliver with the setting and made us feel exactly what a high school crush and first love feels like (wanting to know more about the person, stalking, sneaking looks, etc.). 2 hours for a good movie like this is so short I was hoping we get to see them live and enjoy their high school days more! T_T

The characters were all nice and good people that it is impossible to dislike a person in this show! The characters help each other and even the leads, I sincerely wished everyone a happy ending. As for the character development, it was also good as we saw the characters grow from unapproachable, lacking, and wounded individuals into people who try to better themselves, accept their imperfections, and shone. Also, chemistry between the leads was amazing too particularly because A-list actors Seo Hyun Jin and Kim Dong Wook were able to add life into their characters and delivered their roles very well. I think their paring for this drama is another reason to give this show a try despite the low ratings. They really carried the whole show, and they are just absolutely adorable to watch! ^^
The only flaw I found from this show was its ambitious goal of mixing too many genres together, that ended it ruining the whole drama's theme. I wish they should have just stuck to slice-of-life and romcom, it would have been perfect. Also ending it up until episode 12 or 14 would have done its job perfectly. Murder mystery and romantic comedy k-dramas are highly popular and I think this is the reason why the writers included a bit of those genres in this show, but I think rather than categorizing You Are My Spring as something like that, this is really more of a healing slow paced drama.
The show wasn't outstanding as it has its downsides but it wasn't bad either. I don't get why people had given ratings so low, when it the show had its strong points, had finished the ending neatly, and delivered a good message unlike others that are overrated and had meaningless plot. Overall, if you like spring-like dramas with sweet and slow paced romance with a nice and good closure I think this shoe would be perfect for you.

Mirai Kiritani really delivered well in this movie, her character changing role is hard to portray but she was able to pull it off. Also her chemistry with the ML is just to the roof!! Suzuki Nobuyuki is one cute political aide I was smiling the whole time I was watching him. I wanted to see him more with our FL too bad, this is just a movie!! I wish this was a series instead! He was so cute at the ending part as well! >///<
Overall, the movie was motivating and inspiring! It shows us that nothing is impossible if you put something into your mind and work hard for what you want to achieve.

The whole plot was neatly written, nothing over the top but nothing too boring either, and it was enjoyable because of the fun story. The chemistry of the male characters to the female lead also made everything perfect. My only problem was the lack of introduction to the other characters, and repeated flashbacks of the night the kiss incident happened, but i guess the director was able to incorporate the flashback scenes every episode and make it work.
Overall it was a great show! 8/10! If you are looking for school-college themed, childhood friends, and select your guy type of web series this one will be perfect for you. How I wish this was a full blown drama and that we'd get more scenes, and an extensive story line where the leads could properly enjoy dates. :)

The story did not have drama nor conflict into it but it was a nice and sweet, high school drama with a unique plot. I highly recommend to watch in springtime! I like how the characters were not too showy with their affections too but executed just the right amount. Everything in this show had just the right amount of romance, drama, conflict and resolution, although nothing was too memorable, it was refreshing.
I just wish it was a few episodes bit longer, because it was quite short and fast paced (some scenes were jumped), but it was nice that the flow of the story was maintained until the end. The ending was quite good too, I'm glad our ML had his resolve and grew into a much awesome person.

The show was pretty cute and sweet, but I just wished this drama was longer and was done by a broadcasting company instead so that they'd at the very least get longer air time and scenes, and not feel so rushed. Plus more budget for the actors, more scenarios, and overall more drama.
Anyway, if you like a light, short drama with a sweet and good looking male guy, with a happy ending plot this show is certainly for you.

In my opinion, everything was perfect plot-wise, the last few episodes were real tearjerkers. My only concern was the utilization of the other side characters. The ghosts were there because they have unresolved stories and couldn't leave their loved ones behind, but then suddenly in the middle of the show their stories were suddenly cut off, rushed, and messily written. The plot from then on became solely focused on Yuri, her hiding the truth and Ganghwa finding it out. Aslo what happened to Jang Pil Seung's interest toward Yuri that was first shown on the character chart?
Acting-wise, Lee Kyu Hyung only proved to us once again how versatile of an actor he is! The way he portrayed pain, loss, longing, and suffering was on point. I am glad the casting directors chose him for this role because I dont think anyone could pull it off as well as him. Also his chemistry with Lee Tae Hee was amazing! I think this was also by far Lee Tae Hee's best work, maybe because she already has children of her own, but she was able to depict the role of a mother who loved her child dearly well.
Overall, this drama may have its own minor flaws, but despite that, it really made a deep impression in me. I cried a lot because it made realize my actions. Me being a mean daughter to my parents who I know loves me despite the way I am, I wonder if I was able to show them how much I love them, despite not being able to express it well?
Hi Bye, Mama is a true wake up call for us who are busy with our daily lives, we run and worry towards the future so much that we sometimes forget to thank and appreciate all those we love. It reminded me to treasure each moment with our loved ones before its too late, to appreciate life and living as a gift, and to not do anything we would regret.

Just like many other school web dramas out there, The Best Mistake had the typical k-drama formula, but with a different twist, because it also showed viewers a bit about friendships. We learn that people can change for the good or the bad depending on who they hang out with, we also learn that real friends are there with you, and accept you for who you are without judgement.
Overall, I enjoyed watching the show that I even finished everything in one sitting. Although familiar from the other shows, there are elements in the drama that made it entertaining, attractive, and unique. Maybe its the production quality, the casting, or the acting? but it worked!

When it comes to the story line I have parts that I like and do not like. First, I like how the scriptwriters wrote the female lead in a way we could sympathize with her and also hate her to the core as well. She is really a b***h. We can see the female lead being frustrated with the situation is in but couldn't decide what to do at all, at the same time she was selfish and wouldn't let go of either one, that the ending kind of also justified her personality. Also I kind of felt like she had a complex with her friends of some sort as she tends to be secretive and quiet with them.
For the male leads, I hate that they were all written to look dumb and so overly infatuated with her? Like, I was screaming mad when not one of them could take a hint, but well then maybe that was the point. Maybe they were really all dumb that's why she was able to handle all three.
Overall, if you are looking for new, and refreshing web dramas to watch with attractive characters, maybe this one is for you.

I'm glad this web drama popped out on my youtube recommendations while browsing! It was nice to see light fluffy dramas like this all over again and the best thing is that its simple, direct to the point, and easy to watch especially when trying to pass time.
The lead actors were an added bonus too! I love seeing both Lee Won Geun and Song Ji Eun in this drama! Both actors executed their roles well even for a low budget web drama like this one. They don't have much chemistry, probably due to the short nature of the show, but they delivered well and they look good.
Storyline-wise this drama is nice and simple, the soundtracks used for this web drama was good too they were perfect for the scenes. Overall, Drawing, Spring has nothing too memorable, but it will leave you feeling good and maybe want to have a hot and sweet boyfriend like Lee Won Geun too!

I guess one reason to this was adding Kim Saeron's new character. We have been so used to the fixed casts and regular couples Hyun Seung and Jiwon, Jun Mo and Doyoung that adding her made us curious as to what this new character's role was that it brought us something new to look forward to. I had my doubts at first, but adding her character together with quiet guy Ha Neul was really cute. Who knew he could be someone so cool and romantic? He was the shy and quiet best friend with Pu Reum but now he's definitely strong lead material with Ji Min, and because of this i'm already looking forward to a Season 5 with them as the main story!!
We also see the character development for the casts this season as they experience challenges to their friendship with the issue of military enlistment, and graduation, and how they stayed strong for each other and kept in touch despite being apart. Despite all the goofiness, they are there for each other no matter what. Its also nice to see how they welcome new people into their circle despite not knowing them fully with Pureum, Haneul, and Jimin, it just shows how good and reliable of a friend and sunbae they are.
Something about Love Playlist 4 just made me feel all warm and nice after finishing it. How I wish I could have friends like them where I can be myself and goof around being too conscious about being judged.

The plot line is simple yet very entertaining, it was well written and executed for a short drama, if felt complete. I think that the characters in this drama are very interesting, they are really distinct from each other, have bright personalities, and are funny at the same time especially her fangirl friend, which helped the Ho Goo Hee gain her confidence. The chemistry of the characters were good too! It mainly focuses on the main character Ho Goo Hee who is kind and pure, and because she is the way she is, she had also a handful of experience being bullied by her peers but she overcame this and learned to stand out for what she thinks is right when she received the "revenge note". She also met some friends who will help her along.
The visuals of the male characters here are the catch of this drama. Cha Eunwoo had minimal parts, and how i wish he had more lines but he was great in portraying his role and his character was very entertaining to watch. Park Solomon was a whole different level of awesome though! He was the main reason I kept watching this through the end. He was so cute and overall great with his acting in here, that he made my heart flutter just like how the female lead would to him. He was humble, cool, and sweet. His character was not arrogant nor the pretentious type. He had the whole mr. righteous going on and I love it!!
I also appreciated how they depicted the life of a fangirl in this drama, because I am a fangirl myself, and sometimes I think dramas tend to exaggerate the negative side of being a fangirl, but in this drama it wasn't depicted as something negative but it is an interest that you could share with your friends and even your family members. :)
The drama is nothing outstanding but it is definitely worth watching for the laughs and the squeals! I'm sure all those fluff, romcom lovers will enjoy this as much as I did! ^^

The leads were just overall cute, they're very compatible to each other and i love it that their cuteness is not cringey. Minkyu's acting has improved a lot! He should be getting more drama love calls after this! i dont know if its just me, or maybe its part of the roles they're playing but the only problem for me was the bakery manager and the sister their expressions were too stiff and awkward they're like stones.
The songs they used in this drama were very pretty too! It matches the scenes very well! I was surprised they used The Man BLK songs in some of the scenes. Minkyu's OST was very good too, i love his voice so much, thank you for giving him a chance to showcase it in this webdrama! ~
Overall I give it a 7.5/10, the desserts that were featured were all too sweet and tempting, that i craved for dessert instantly!
