Unfortunately, I'm very susceptible to all disgusted scenese and I can't watch it. Jue ming pai dui is movie, which I coudl not finish, though I tried. I've watched about half the movie, but when I substract the time, when I cover eyes, it was maybe..I don't know.. a little. My seanse was restricted to quick rewinding scence...

Maybe, I will comback to this film someday, but now... I'm too sensitive.

I don''t know if it is good ephitet, but Jotei reminds me...a brothel. Yes, maybe this word is too strong, but I''m under the impression that everything goes around sex. It means it is degrading that the only one weapon of women is sex and fact if she is educated or not, doesn''t matter, because all of them: Ayaka, Rina, Reiko, Kaoru... They act the same.

The high class host club is great part of japanese culture, it''s like moder geisha houses, but these in low class...

As to cast... Katou Rossa isn''t very beautiful actress , she has very unbalanced face, but Maeda Ai was cute, though I suspect that she has some hidden intention.

I have to admit girls have got so pretty dresses!

Aww... and the most important element of drama - Matsuda Shouta.

This drama has got very traditional, korean climate and fine, but I'm sure it's not horror. I suppose that cruelty of these people results from old beliefs, not in order to scare the viewer. Some strories are interesting, some less, but there is luck of elements of horror. I think that game light and this blue glow on mad zombies is really hopeless, so technically it's not good effect. However, I ought to praise the costumes! The traditional korean clothes are so beautiful and colotful!

Crime, investigation and Jang Geun Seok. I was totaly absorbed by this film, though I was angry when I watched the end. In spite of blames, I suspect Pearson, because I saw in him... a greed? Anyway, he wasn't reliable and he described all this incident very detailed... with passion... like professinal.

Unfortunately, the end is evidence that justice often is fiction.

IRIS is great production, in my point of you, even one of the best. Except for the excellent plot, this series is totaly technically polished. The action devolops with every episode and I coudn't wait for next one. To be fair, I noticed this drama, because everybody made me an adverisement of T.O.P. I supposed some BIG role, but he only appeared in some scenes and in the middle he died. Hmm.. So.. He coudldn't play too much. OK. This blue jacket was extra, but he coudn't prove the talent.

The story about the sick girl from 1 litre of tears is known by most of drama-fans. The movie isn't as much popular as drama and it's a pity. The film shoud be appreciated too, because though the plot is shorter, it's amazing. The cast is other one... I can't be objective about their acting, because I've fall in love with drama's cast... Anyway, everybody who love tragedy of main character in drama schould watch this movie.

I was struck by this film. Two people, whose fates would be finish soon. Suddenly, they start enjoying thier life. All decision were realize in dramatic way and this film shows it perfectly. Although, I completley don't catch this scene when they fly by this rainbow bus. Really. I was convinced they die there. Anyway, after secret resurrection, these couple achieve their purpose. The final scene is very lofty and touching...

Hana Kimi is fantastic drama, but I'm disappointed a little now. This special isn't the best. Actually, everything is fine, but it's not the same. Of course, I had fun with it! The drama didn't need extra episode, but on the other hand, every part of story is a nice thing...

Final film is just like next drama's episode, which is summary all this story and it makes beautiful end. The all series is epic, so I suppose that this movie doesn't require bigger comment. When I watch that long drama I always feel sadness that I have to part with characters, but on th other hand it is a huge benefit, because if something is too long, the plot loses sense and casts has more crazy threads. In this case I know I can always comeback to drama and characters won't be changed.

This is one of the best korean productions I have ever seen. The plot absorbed me at all and action kept me in suspense from the beginning to the end. Undoubtedly, the main factor, which attracted my attention was the sensational thread. It is really nice change from some sweet dramas.

I see that many people decide to watch Green Rose after they have watched Dog And Wolf's Time. I had watched Green Rose AT FIRST and for me, because both items are comparable, Green Rose is on the first place.

This is my first medical drama. Although, there aren't many episodes, there all the time something happens. I though that every espisode is connected with Teru's magic instinct, but it turned out that not, because at the end there was greater scandal. I like the director's character (Yasuda Junji) the most. Actually, this guy looks like yakuza, but he has such a friendly disposition...

It is typical school movie and it perfectly shows power of influence on ther people. Se Ri and Eom Yun Mi are totally different like fire and water. Time goes and the situation is changed. The girls makes friendship, which isn't easy... The topic about strong relationship between girls is interesting thing in movie, though I'm not convinced to way of presenting it there. Maybe it's the director's fault, maybe bad actors.. I don't know. Film could be better.

I didn't have positive attitude to this drama. The charachters seemed so...neuter. At the beginning we meet strange siblings. I really hated Min Ji, because she was.. very wild. Verbally. She screamed and she was brash. Dong Baek, exuse me, clumsy asshole, also wasn't delightful, though some times later, when he's started changing, he was even tolerable.

Everything is changed when Sang Cheol was introduced. This boy is hope of all this story. He was the only one who knew the truth about silly Kang Mo and he was the only one who didn't let manipulate himself. Since this role, I've been faithful fan of Baek Seong Hyeon. And his trunk.

It's really good drama. Hmm... Even more then good. I love detective stories with comedian and, of cource, romantic parts. However, I can't give the famous 5 stars, because there is the same thread again: 'me, it's not me', the same like in Green Rose. Dear Korea! I know you have more creativity. As to cast, Lee Jun Gi charmed me the most... his eyes... I've not seen him in any other production earlier, I think he is the good actor. Ahhh.. and this beautiful Thailand! Anyway... I recommend it!

I don't know why but I can't like this drama so much or maybe I just don't feel this climate. The episodes were so long and due to my lack of interest of the plot I have fun thanks to actor's behavior. It doesn't matter if they play tragedy or comedy, I'm still not convinced to their acting.

However, a gay (Lee Min Ho!) is something new in kdrama for me, so these all aberrant misunderstandings makes me laugh the most.

To be fair, I counted on a small affair between Yeong Seon and Sang Jun. In my opinion they could be the great couple. Surely, this guy is better candidate than the true Yeong Seong's husband. Change the screenplay!

...and Sangojjae! A pretty house. I could live there.
