Watch this!!

I really, really liked this drama and I’d like everyone to give this drama a go!

What I liked:
- both male and female leads
- the supporting cast is great on the whole (other than a few irksome ones, but of course)
- the kissing scenes are wow - so delicious
- the chemistry between the leads
- how cool Lee Min Ki is

What I didn’t like:
- some angst (normal though)
- the supporting actress who just wants to get hitched is, imo, mad and super annoying

Overall, wonderful! I super HEART this show! Watch. Watch. Watch.

The best and must watch Chinese modern drama

Firstly I'm not a very Big fan of cdramas bcuz it's all mostly costume dramas or normal modern drama(fr some reason games are involved most of the time)
But this drama is one of those rare ,fresh and very realistic concepts where they portrayed the daily life and struggles of doctors and firefighters as the leads overcome all the challenges together .
And I must mention ,the chemistry between the Leads was just as ?? i had butterflies tingling in my tummy ,although I'm a little disappointed that the story is stretched and they deleted many potential scenes of them together and kept unnecessary ones for which otherwise would make the plot more interesting and better
Apart from these the actors have done a great job portraying the character very well ...like the emotions hit straight to your heart

As fr main lead i got attracted Yang Yang though ‘You're my glory ' as always his acting and chemistry with fl is always perfect
And FL Wang Chu Ran i got to know her through ‘Have a crush on you ' drama ,although she is a rookie actress I'm impressed with her acting that you can't even make out that she is a rookie I'm sure any one can get hooked up with her acting

Overall it's a very very wonderful drama
It's a roller coaster throught the drama , i thoroughly enjoyed it and I miss SongQin and Song Yan's cute little teammates already

Just another rom-com

I'll make this a very simple and short review.

King The Land was honestly an enjoyable and easy watch. It’s not one of those bad rom-coms that you watch til the end just for the sake of finishing it. Everything was simple, cute, and light. I liked the cast, acting, music, and whatnot.

This drama’s biggest flaw is its lack of plot conflicts or the lack of depth from the conflicts. There were barely any conflicts throughout the drama and it felt like the director and writers were living in a perfect idealistic world where everyone gets to live a happy and fulfilling life – which sadly is far from the real world. I honestly think the drama could’ve been better if the protagonists faced more challenges.

Overall, this is a good watch for your daily dose of rom-com dramas. It’s an easy watch if you’re having trouble looking for a drama to watch or if you’re looking for a light drama.

The rest of this review is just filler that was generated by ChatGPT just to achieve the minimum word count requirement of MDL reviews:

"King The Land" delivers a refreshing dose of lightheartedness that's perfect for unwinding after a long day. The engaging storyline, coupled with endearing characters, adds to the drama's charm and appeal. The chemistry between the lead actors is palpable, making their interactions a delight to watch.
The drama's picturesque setting serves as a backdrop for the unfolding romance, transporting viewers into a world where every scene feels like a page from a storybook. The attention to detail in the set design and costumes adds an extra layer of visual enjoyment.

However, as much as the drama excels in its simplicity, some viewers might find themselves yearning for a bit more complexity. While the absence of intense conflicts maintains the drama's light atmosphere, it also prevents it from delving deeper into the emotional rollercoaster that often accompanies intricate plotlines.
In an idealistic portrayal of life, the characters seem to effortlessly overcome hurdles, leaving the viewer with a sense of positivity. Yet, this portrayal can sometimes detach the drama from the realities of life, as challenges are a part and parcel of personal growth. Incorporating a few more substantial obstacles for the protagonists could have added a layer of relatability to their journey.

Despite this slight shortcoming, "King The Land" remains an enjoyable choice, especially for those seeking a breather from heavy dramas. Its ability to put a smile on your face and warm your heart makes it a go-to option for a casual binge-watching session.

The drama's soundtrack deserves a special mention, as it perfectly complements the overall mood. Each musical piece enhances the emotions portrayed on screen, further immersing the audience in the world of the characters.
In conclusion, "King The Land" offers a welcome escape into a world of light-hearted romance and endearing characters. While it may lack the depth of some more emotionally charged dramas, its simplicity and positivity make it an excellent choice for relaxation. So, if you're searching for an easy-to-watch drama that will leave you feeling uplifted, this one is certainly worth adding to your watchlist.

I like it

First of all I like to say that acting by the characters of the drama made drama more realistic. Destiny ,fate nobody can fight with this . Destiny is so cruel that anytime it turn .
This had been shown in the drama . After so much ups down two person life settled ,they were enjoying their life ,their togetherness . They were very happy and didn't want anything else but due to the cruel father of female lead both of them faced difficulties . Specially male lead character . He faced a lot and even lost his loved ones .
Ultimately they had a happy endings.
I wanted to see their child . If the drama would had shown their baby then according to me it would be a perfect ending.

Spectacular, Amazing, Fantastic

STORY: I really liked this drama. I know many people don't really like idol/singer actors but this one is really good. The story was interesting. There was one main story, about Jang Man-Wol and her sins and etc and there were minor stories about the ghosts. This kept the drama interesting and made me want to watch more.
ACTING/CAST: The 2 had really good chemistry and the person who played the male lead (forgot his name) did a really good job playing the character and IU also did a good job playing the selfish cold character.
MUSIC: The reason why the music rating is low is because I didn't find the music so catchy or emotional. There was like one emotional song and made me want to search it up and listen to it but it wasn't so catchy.
REWATCH VALUE: The reason why I gave this section such a high rating is because I watched this drama so many times that I lost track. I don't know how to explain it but the drama makes you miss the scenes and stories.

Anyways I hope you find this helpful and I hope you enjoy the drama :)

What a beautiful and colourful journey!

Color Rush! What a journey! From the beginning to the end, I was carried through a grey and dull world where being introduced to colour by basically your true love. It was a unique and breathtaking ride, with a few flaws.

Story- 9/10
I have to take away a mark due to the fact of the synopsis. The third paragraph states that the MC, helps Yeon Woo's aunt in looking for his mother/ her sister, where an unexpected story begins to unfold. This does not happen...LIKE AT ALL. The missing mother and not finding any clues whatsoever about here whereabouts is bugging me a bit. Maybe they did it this way to have a second season, which by the way is very rare in the K drama world.
I know that there were other parts that troubled some people, butcwho knows? Maybe they might add them in the director's cut that is coming soon. Otherwise than that, I loved the MC as well as the supporting characters.

Acting- 10/10
These actors were good! They were able to bring these characters to life! Heo Hyun Jun has somehow made learning about colours sexy when he was describing it to Choi Yeon Woo's character. Also, the scene vefore they kissed! That had me so emotional where one can't recognized faces and the next one can't see colours. But together, they are able to see this. That fricking moment made me teary eyed.

Music-10/10
The music is so addictive and beautiful. It was also well placed in the series where it was able to set the mood.

Rewatch Valu- 10/10
I will most definitely watch this again! Matter of fact, I'm just waiting for the director's cut to see if any new scenes were included to watch it again!

Overall-10/10
Although they were some plot holes as I have stated, it was still an enjoyable series. This truly made my Wednesdays and Thursdays. I love t so much and would most definitely recommend it!

It’s like this show deserves 8 stars, but I couldn’t push myself to give it that rating. I knew what I was getting myself into, but I’m still mad at myself for signing up for it. First things first, this show will give you a headache and you’ll even feel your heart strings being pulled at because everyone in general knows what it feels like to like someone and not have those feelings back and every person in the LGBT community also understands what it’s like to fall in love with a best friend whether they were straight or not and it does not work out. Watching this show you feel angry because Off played such a jerk, and Gun was just so pathetic and pitiful you couldn’t help but cry with him. He was so sad and pitiful and you literally felt his pain if you’ve ever been in it and that sucked. The friends were nice and I liked the little side stories but some things were so underdeveloped and unnecessary, I was like ugh whatever. Overall, it’s a fast and easy watch except for when you want to ring Off’s neck because he was such a douche bag for more than half the show and I was rooting for Gun to just fall in love with someone else because let’s be real, he deserved better. I’m glad he got the one he wanted but he definitely needed to move on from the toxicity. Especially after basically digging through the trash and being called a little biotch. So overall, not a bad show, but also not the best show. I’ve seen better BL’s out there, that’s for sure.

What a Beautiful, Crazy and Wonderful Ride

Regardless of its flaws this will still go down as one of my favourite kdrama of all time.

The chemistry between the leads really made up for the frustration we all felt about the story during the ending and whilst I do wish some of the plot had moved on quicker and made sense.

There were times I did wish I could see the old Naksu but I feel like this is a view if what Cho Yeong’s personality without all the child hood heartbreak. Not to mention Ukie went from cute in PT 1 to sexy Jang Uk in PT 2. Not to mention those kisses.

Pt1 had the best story but Pt 2 had the best chemistry I’ve seen on screen in a very long time and atleast a “happy” ending.

The BTS and Instagram posts all the edits and this comment interaction made the whole journey worth it. We were all going crazy for 6 weeks and let’s not even pretend we all screamed on New Years Eve and New Years Day.

I hope it keeps the extra 0.1% because just on the above it deserves it!

Humane shown in the setting of apocalyptic circumstances !!!!!

The storyline stays on the same tempo till the end, the reality on track story type. The OST from JOE LAYNE sounds exquisite.the metamorphosis and hope is the most underlined context in the story. A must watch even for those who dont watch thrillers. Important to note that the director , crew and the writer ; AHN GIL HO and HAN SANG WOON both did a impressive fastidious work.

this drama should be imagine however it turn out to be boring from first episode. if you like to invest the time to watch. you should skip episode 1-9 and 49 to 52. so you will get good result. this is boring indeed. if it compare to other drama. it's really less action scenes. less thought. less romance. less meaning. it's just a triple love. the teacher become behind door lover and that's all for this drama. nothing more. if you expect wonderful from this drama. you should be.
everyone has different ideal. this food. it's quite good taste for me. unlike the first start ever night. i was freak out how wonderful it is. imaging from the start.

Very Messy Drama

I very much wanted to like this, but I really couldn't find anything redeemable about it. The ML is cute, but he looks so young it was hard to buy him as a CEO of a huge company, not to mention he is a bad actor. The FL was cute, but her acting was also terrible. The plot of the drama is...rich guy, poor girl, and family drama. There was so many thing happening like faked-amnesia, secret crushes, adopted kids, motherly hate and a bunch of other crap I don't remember. I leaned a bit heavily onto the FF button, so I can't recall it all. On the plus side this drama was only 16 episodes on Viki, and with the help of the FF button I finished it fairly quickly.
