Lovers in Paris was a nicely done classic romance drama. Even though it used a rather cliche concept, they used it in the right way. There was chemistry and the actors and actresses are really good. I feel like classic korean dramas have such great casts... I wonder why haha. This drama had a melodrama feel to it but it wasn't overdone or anything like this. It had comedy but it wasn't cheesy and try hard tbh. As for the music, I can't really say because its been nine years since I've watched this drama and even though I rewatched it multiple times back then I'm still kinda iffy lol. It had nice scenery too! I think they flimed this in Paris... idk did they??? haha it was nice. All in all, I recommend this for melodrama and romance lovers :)) classics are pretty good so give them a try! They're actually nice to rewatch..

I watched this drama when I was around six years old and I'm sorry if this review is vague lol.
Story: 8.5/10 It was pretty good. I remembered I enjoyed this drama. It's about I think it was a ring... and the girl was lost from her rich family when she was younger and she always wore this ring on her neck. She lived with this other girl and then when the sister came looking for the younger sister, the girl stole the ring and pretended to be the younger sister. As for the guys, there was romance and I remember some crazy gang scenes in this drama but I don't really remember much so I would recommend that you read a synopsis on this somewhere.
Acting/Cast: 9/10 So Ji Sub is such a good actor. His gang scenes scared me so much LOL. The girls are good actresses too so cast isn't a problem.
Music: 8/10 Don't remember it had any I liked but I didn't hate it so neutral.
Rewatch Value: I rewatched this a ton of times back then lol
Overall: 8.5/10 I recommend. It has a melodrama atmosphere to it. It's a one of a kind drama tbh.

I watched this because I'm a fan of GOT7.

This drama was really cute though.
Whoa, didn't know the main girl was 28 years old... Geez, she looks so young like 19ish.

Story: Lol, so cliche. The concept of knights in this drama was so cute haha. The dolls were cute. I REALLY like the trailer though. The music and everybody looked so good. Anyways, the drama was kinda boring but it was cute.

Acting/Cast: Their acting were okay tbh it's more about their looks. The girl was kinda good I guess? Not really? Idk... Don't really think I could take this drama that serious haha.

Music: There was music?! Man.. I need to focus more LOL

Rewatch Value: Eh, only for fan service. I wouldn't rewatch it unless I wanted to see them together or see GOT7 act together.

Overall: It was ok. It's enjoyable bc you get to look at them act and they're so attractive. The ending didn't bother me much because it was just a fun drama.

Noteworthy: Romance

Story: Oof that ending. Can't believe they just did THAT. LIKE are you seriously going to do that??? IT WAS SO GOOD ALL ALONG. I really liked this drama until the last episode. Yikes. They ruined a perfectly great drama with that ending... The only thing worth watching was the romance and the story in the beginning; solid 8/10 for me.

Acting/Cast: Shin Yool, Wang So, Princess were all wonderful. The Prince that loved Shin Yool was an ok actor but the main cast blew this drama OFF.

Music: I like ballads!

Rewatch Value: Hmm... debatable...

Overall: I loved this drama but that ending was unforgivable. I recommend this drama for the romance and the story in the beginning. Save your sanity by skipping the ending please.

Dream High was ok tbh /: I didn't love it nor did I hate it. It's one of those dramas you really like at first but then afterwards you're like eh it wasn't that good why was I so hyped about it xD
Story: 8.5/10 It was enjoyable and fun. It's just your typical high school or music school scenario. I don't have much to say about this.
Acting/Cast: 8.5/10 I watched this because of Suzy, Eunjung and of course IU. They're so cute haha. Their acting is pretty good.
Music: 10/10 I mean come on, here are all of your most popular kpop singers of course the songs are gonna sound good!
Rewatch Value: 8.5/10 maybe
Overall: 8.5/10 it was ok
I recommend it.

Wait wha... I thought I wrote a review for this a long time ago.. Dang, I guess I didn't. This drama, I wouldn't say 'disappointed me' but I wouldn't say it was something I totally hoped for.
Story: 8.5/10 eh, I hoped for more romance between Eun Gi and I forgot his name.. sorry omg I watched this a long time ago I can't even remember. This drama can be heart breaking at moments like whenever Eun Gi tells him she doesn't need him and I'm just like :'( you also broke my heart LOL. anyways, with that said, I wanted more romance between them. The story started off pretty good, and then the parts after he's outta jail confused me so so much but then later my question was answered so yeah it takes like 5 episodes afterwards for your question to be answered. The ending confused me so much. I didn't like the ending even though they were together.. It was so weird.. I also can't stand the fact that Jae Hee tricked the main guy so many times.
Acting/Cast: 10/10 This had such a good cast. The chemistry was just flawless. You cannot hope for a better cast selection. Joongki just impressive. He rocked his role. Si yeon also was really good and Moon Chae won became one of my favorite female leads.. She's so pretty and her acting is amazing.
Music: 8.5/10 I don't think anything stood out to me o_o did this drama even have music? lol I think I was so into the sad vibe of this.
Rewatch Value: 8.5/10 WERE THERE ANY HAPPY MOMENTS?? besides the ending which was just not even convincing at all -___-
Overall: it was okay... If you watch it, find a cheerful drama afterwards so you're not so overwhelmed in all those sad and upsetting emotions.
Lastly, I recommend this for melodrama (I think it's what this was) lovers but definitely not for romance lovers. And if you hate bad endings, I would probably skip over this drama even though the ending wasn't bad. The ending did not do it for me.

So entertaining and heart warming!

This drama was so entertaining lol. It's so cute, funny, and just omg ahaha this is so adorable!! It's the perfect drama if you're just out of dramas to watch and decide to watch something to kill time. Or if you just finished a depressing drama, watch this. After I watched Cruel City, I was so out of it and disappointed by the ending.. So I decided to watch this since it had good reviews and looked pretty cheerful. IT IS WHAT YOU SEE ON THE COVER.

Story: Oh my goodness... this author.. just.. oh man. He/She made this so dramatic in the beginning and from that dramatic chaos just turned it into a hilarious story. This is such a fun drama. The ending was PERFECT and it flowed perfectly. The pacing is a bit slow, imo it should have only been 14 episodes if it was the right speed, but it was still enjoyable.

Acting/Cast: Han Groo... man I just love her. She's so weird it's so funny. She turned Woo Jin's mother into this chaotic person lol. You can pretty much say she ruins everyone's 'proper' image haha. I watched this for So Hee to be honest heh. She's so pretty. Jeongmin was good. Sunhwa's acting was pretty good I don't know why people didn't like it since her role didn't require much and wasn't even hard. Jin Woon is so attractive. His smiles look kinda fake but it's funny.

Music: Listen to Love Lane.

Rewatch Value: I would rewatch this if another drama ruins my mood

Overall: It's not the best drama out there nor is it the type of drama you would take as your first priority but it is very enjoyable and perfect for I guess post drama depressions haha. Don't take this drama too seriously. It's so fun. Loved it and again, I recommend it as a mood booster :)

OMG DONG YI. Okay so this show kept my mom and I on the couch for 2 hours everyday because it was shown english sub on this one chinese channel. IT IS SO GOOD. I REALLY LIKE THIS DRAMA. Too bad it ended... Sadness ;-;
Story: 10/10 You cannot beat this. 60 episodes it was all worth it. The pace was perfect and just you cannot beat this. I don't have anything negative to say about this... I really truly enjoyed it.
Acting/Cast: After this I searched up the cast and searched for the dramas each of them acted in xD It was so good and the queens, and everyone was attractive lol! They had chemistry and it was so cute and funny. There were super funny moments hahah loved this.
Music: 9/10 I don't remember any of them besides the intro music hmmmm... it was enjoyable
Rewatch Value: 10/10 IF I HAD THE TIME YES.
Overall: 10/10
I watched this 2 years ago and so I don't remember enough to give you a detailed review but here :) I RECOMMEND.

Hmm, I actually couldn't get myself to actually finish this drama until weeks later because the romance portions felt too long for me. Usually I'd binge if the drama got me hooked. The ending wasn't really something I'd take so yeah and I don't appreciate what happened to the poor prosecutor but it's okay because tbh he was kinda annoying to the bad guys because of his stubbornness.

Story: Pretty good but I want less romance all at one time like it would have been better if they broke it up. The romance should have been more scattered out throughout the drama. Also, some parts were practically meaningless like when he sat there and stared at Minyoung for a good 10+ minutes (something most fans would enjoy of course). The ending didn't do it for me. Not a bad ending though. Good storyline though.

Acting/Cast: CHEMISTRY- Minho and Minyoung were adorable together. I enjoyed Hara's snobby attitude lol it was funny to see her get rejected. Oh and the cast are so good looking like I would totally rewatch this just to see all those attractive faces together again. The cast selection was good and there is so much eye candy lol.

Music: Fitting

Rewatch Value: Maybe

Overall: I recommend but more on a superficial level (eye candy & good plot on the surface level).

I thought this drama was pretty decent. It wasn't bad but it wasn't something I would love to make other people watch..

Story: 8.0/10 It was really good EXCEPT sometimes there were I guess not really plot holes but like... idk, sometimes there's this one scene I don't really like. I thought the ending was kind of rushed. There's plenty of romance so yay for romance lovers! If you've watched Angel eyes, this drama has less romance than that, just saying. There's suspense in it too so yeah yay for suspense lovers. Again, I didn't really like the last episode.

Acting/Cast: 9/10 I watched this for Song Hye Kyo and I was not disappointed!! These are experienced actors/actresses so really nice acting. :)

Music: 7.5/10 don't think anything stood out to me.

Rewatch Value: 7/10 ehh... I have a bunch of other dramas to watch

Overall: 8/10 tbh it's more of an 7.8 to me but that's not a # on this scale haha so yeah 8 i guess.
I'm not a romance lover if you're wondering. I like a little of everything mixed in to balance it out.

Despite all of these negative reviews, I didn't think it was that bad.

Story: It wasn't even that bad like seriously.. The story was actually different and it kept me interested.. well, ok, tbh I did skip like a bunch of parts and fast forwarded through most of it but hey it wasn't that bad lol. Just skip the unnecessary parts like with Hana and her friends or Hyeri daydreaming or the beginning circus part (that was kinda weird). It got me searching up DID though.. gee. This drama was good though and the ending wasn't a stupid one either which probably made me give it 1 point higher haha. I absolutely hate korean dramas with useless endings so this one didn't disappoint me.

Acting/Cast: Why are people complaining of Han Ji Min's acting? I thought it wasn't that bad tbh. I've seen worse. Dr. Yoon was a really good actor and Hyun Bin was good too. Hyeri was also really good too. I didn't think Robin's character was THAT exaggerated but maybe it was the director who wanted Robin like that?

Music: I don't think anything stood out to me except for Falling in Love..

Rewatch Value: idk maybe??? most likely not tho

Overall: It was quite different and interesting to watch. I think it's worth a try/shot to check this one out.

So sad and heart wrenching...

I don't really know why the rating for this drama is a 7.6 but it was really good. Before you start watching though, let me warn you that you're gonna cry a river.

Story: It's so depressing and sad and heartbreaking... The ending sucked but eh I wasn't too iffy about it because I kinda expected it. I didn't understand why the main character didn't/ couldn't do anything to help his love... I felt like this drama wasn't really that realistic and some parts I can certainly argue against. This drama was original (sorta) and definitely different from the kdramas you see now. Definitely a classic kdrama.

Acting/Cast: Great acting. Not much to say.

Music: THE MUSIC MAKES YOU WANT TO CRY HARDER.

Rewatch Value: Nah not trying to bawl my eyes out lol...

Overall: I recommend this if you wanna watch something depressing and cry your eyes out. Welcome romance lovers, tragedy lovers, and melodrama lovers. On an extra note, it was so depressing that my head was legit hurting afterwards. I'm not a usual tragic story watcher.

I still can't believe it's over!

Man, oh man. This drama was great. I loved it. I wish there were more episodes-- ahh I'm going to miss this!

Story: What can I say.. It was perfect, the characters were well developed and there were no plot holes (YESSS!), the pacing was kind of slow though but that didn't bother me because I just watched the whole drama with a fast forward pace (I can read subtitles quickly). IT WAS AMAZING THOUGH. I was so scared for the last episode, I thought the author would ruin it for us just like most Korean authors, but NO! The ending was awesome and I really liked it.

Acting/Cast: CHANGWOOK, PLEASE GET MORE ROLES LIKE THIS. I would have liked it better if Min Young kept her long hair like in City Hunter but well, she still looked pretty. The acting was excellent. There's CHEMISTRY and they were convincing.

Music: Oh my love. I'm all yours. And there will never be another one 'cause I'm eternally yours... Ok you guys get it, I can't stop listening to it!! Do check these soundtracks out!

Rewatch Value: Changwook + Min Young + amazing plotline? What is there not to love?!

Overall: I LOVE THIS DRAMA HEAPS and highly recommend it!

Get a box of tissues ready!

Story: I don't usually watch dramas like this (with the spirits and all) so that's why I skipped the parts where the spirits came out of people. That was kinda creepy. The plot was really good and original though. Get a box of tissues because it got me crying loads of tears over and over again! A truly touching masterpiece.

Acting/Cast: Simply amazing.

Rewatch Value: Hmm.. idk maybe. If I do rewatch, then I will skip through the spirit parts.

Overall: I recommend. It's a must watch.

Okay so Secret is literally one of the best kdramas made. This is such a masterpiece. I absolutely loved it. I watched this for Ji Sung and Lee Da Hee.
Story: 9.5/10 Oh my goodness.. The story is so well written. There was a lot of suspense and it was unpredictable. The characters were well developed and they had lots of characteristics. Yoo jung's husband was so upsetting LOL. Yoo Jung's character will really get to you. I don't really get why Ji Sung fell in love with Yoo Jung that fast but um ok haha. Lee Da Hee's character was kind of pathetic. I never figured out what really happened to Ji Sung's girlfriend's secret death until the ending so man they kept it well sealed! The only part I don't like in this whole drama was the ending. I expected a little more from the romance but well it ended well.
Acting/Cast: 10/10 Hwang Jung eum's acting is flawless as always. Her tears make you cry ok like I could not stop crying whenever she cried. Her acting is so incredible that you'll literally feel heaps of sympathy for her. Soo bin's acting was pretty good and Lee Da hee's arrogant image was well done just like in her other dramas. Her clothes were so pretty! *-* Ji Sung was SO good oh my goodness. He really improved from All In to now.
Music: 10/10 they all stood out to me and I was like I have to get this hahah
rewatch value: 9/10 yes maybe
overall: 9.5/10 I recommend thissss
