1-The reason i watched this : i was so bored then i found this movie so i decided to watch it in a try to cheer up but i end up getting even more bored, i was mostly attracted by the numerous stories .

2-Storyline/Plot : At first i thought that the story of the movie is going to make me love it since it have 5 diffrent love stories in summer but i was wrong i end up hating it, i usually fall for movies with numerous stories but this movie's story wasn't that good it was fair not the kind of story that will grasp your attention from the first moment.

3-Acting/Cast : the only strength point in this movie; it got some great actors that knows how to deliver feelings.

4-Music : i don't actually remember it so it got to be that bad.

5-Rewatch value : i couldn't stand watching it once and kept skipping some parts how about rewatching it i must be crazy if i do so.

6-The ending : the kind of ending that everyone want to see, i was expecting it anyway so there isn't much to tell about it because i hate it when i expect the ending and it turn out to be the same as my expectations. I was hoping that they will surprise me or something yet what i was anticipating actually happened.

7-Overall : i won't say watch it or not because that's up to you but if you're bored and looking for a movie to cheer up please avoid this movie, i really regret wasting my time on; it so not worth watching.

1-The reason i watched this : i was randomly going through Tv channels and i accidently found it, at first i wasn't interested then i just couldn't get my eyes off the screen.

2-Storyline/Plot : Totally loved it, i mean there were an unusual story; it's true that it's a historical-action story but it got a lot of twists, feelings of love, hate, betrayel, injustice and many other things that keep you hooked up for the hole time and what i mostly loved about the storyline that it got a lot of versions for the same story; just so creative in my point of view.

3-Acting/Cast : I liked it somehow and of course Jet Li being the lead male is the strength point that made me watch this; i just love his acting even others were cool, not bad i guess.

4-Music : the normal historical music that you find in chinese movies.

5-Rewatch value : I guess it won't be that good to rewatch it since you already know all the important twists that made this movie intresting.

6-The ending : Didn't like it but didn't hate it either, i just kept watching silently without any reaction, i guess i was expecting that kind of end from the moment i started to watch the movie.

7-Overall : A nice movie that deserve to be watched specially if you're action-romance-historical fan. I have no regrets even though it wasn't Jet Li's best movie but like i said it worth watching.

This is the first time i ever write a review without seeing the whole drama and hopefully the last. But by episode 12 i can say that there is nothing that can salvage this. The remaining 4 episodes have no chance of changing my opinion towards it.

**I have seen the other reviews people giving this a high score(10? really?) are not being objective what so ever. Even if all you want is eyecandy there are a lot better dramas out there.**

The drama starts out well i have to admit the first two episodes are quite well done(except for the weakish acting) but after that everything gets out of control.

The drama becomes very underwhelming. The person who wrote the script didnt really know what he was doing. The whole concept lacks direction and its all over the place. The story development is horribly paced and full of repeated scenes. On top of all this the VERY mediocre acting doesnt help either.
Not to mention the fact that for them to mistake the main character as a male they probably would have to be braindead.(I know this is a drama and dont have to be realistic but its impossible to overlook how obvious it is when you can see her chest stand out in multiple scenes and they still dont realize, its very badly executed)(Just check out Coffee Prince that should be the standard.)

The cast for the "junior" group is beyond awful. Their acting and even the characters itself are boring , and they dont stand apart at all. Plus they hardly have personalities themselves and all of them act like a 14 y o in the drama.

Where "You are beautful" and "Coffee Prince" are superb dramas and tell their stories like a pleasant warm summer breeze. This drama is like a car you lost control of on a winter road sliding towards the edge of a cliff.

I adored this drama- its was incredibly well written and kept you guessing until the very end. The plot is very intricate and would need full concentration otherwise you may miss something- however, with a drama this well executed its doubtful your attention would stray. The story is flawless, which is why I give it a 10. The pacing was perfect and gave you enough time to make your own judgements on everything and then leaving you utterly surprised at the twists and turns of the plot. While the series is fast paced the time given to each small arc is paced well and you don't feel like its rushed.

The cast is perfectly chosen- the acting is superb and the cast is incredibly in tune with each other pulling off any scene with ease. There were 3 actors who really made this show perfect for me- Miura Haruma, Satoh Takeru, and Narimiya Hiroki. I would like to especially mention the latter at his portrayal of J was chilling and so well acted I was almost rooting for the character just because I wanted to see more of him. The cast is a perfect 10 for me!

I admit I didn't really pay much attention to the music- however, the bits I did pay attention to were incredibly well executed and I saw no fault with it. With some shows he music can be a distraction and with Bloody Monday I barely noticed it which to me indicates how well it actually fit with the show. So I give the music a 10.

The rewatch value I would also put at a 10, because while there is a second season I will be watching this again.

Overall, a flawless and spectacular series!

A story of young love between two boys. Bittersweet, funny, exciting, tragic, dramatic. Very light and very entertaining. Both boys are incredibly handsome and the challenges they face because of their 'forbidden' love makes for an exciting movie.
The film is not for everyone, and it requires an open mind to really appreciate what the boys have to go through - the negativity of their fellow schoolmates and the difficulty of having to deal with their own emotions. The pacing is soothing and quite cozy. It enables the viewers to get into the emotional roller coaster of what's in store for the lovers.
Highly recommended to those who believe that love knows no boundaries.

Here's a little overview of why I watched this drama special and how involved I am with the whole Detective Conan Anime/Drama. I've seen around 630 episodes of the anime so far, and I've seen most of the 2011 Drama Series and this drama special. Needless to say I'm a big fan of the show in general so when I saw a new drama special I jumped on the chance to watch it.

Story 7/10: The two cases were pretty cool but not extremely great. Seeing Heiji and Kudo in action together was awesome. That's always my favorite part in the anime movies that involve Heiji. Unfortunately, since Kudo is not a kid in the drama special, it was impossible for the cases to be really "meaningful".

Acting 10/10: They all played their roles flawlessly. I didn't notice anything that bothered me so 10/10.

Music: 7/10 The soundtrack was good....but there was only one song in the entire 1 hour and 30 minutes.

Rewatch 3/10: I really don't rewatch movies or dramas. I have rewatched some of the Detective Conan anime movies but only because those were spectacular. This one..not so much. I won't be rewatching this.

Overall 7/10: This is great for Detective Conan fans who have nothing else to do or are waiting for the next episode of the anime to get subbed or the next chapter of the manga to get translated. If you've never heard of Detective Conan, you probably won't enjoy it too much. Or who knows, maybe you will? Just know that...There is only one truth!

1) The reason I watched this: Surely because it's the 2nd season of "It started with a kiss". I was so happy to find it since I got the chance to continue the story.

2) Storyline/Plot: The continuation of the story and like the 1st season they followed the manga; this season had many important events along with many side stories; cute, romatic, sad, happy,heartwarming moments: it was all there.

3) Acting/Cast: In the first season's review I gave it an 8 but this season I gave it a 9 simply because this season's cast risen and there were cool actors especially those nurse team so cute^^ I totally loved all of them.

4) Music : Just like 1st season's music; it was nice.

5) Rewatch value : it totally deserve to be rewatched over and over again.

6) The ending : I felt sadness when it ended not because it was a sad ending but because I bid farewell to "Itazura na kiss"'s story; there was a total blank after it ended.

7-Overall : Well, I believe this is the best adaptation of Itazura na kiss comparing to other incarnations, "Playfull kiss" was nice but it was short and didn't continue until the end.
Between 1st and 2nd season there have been 50 episodes but I still want more. Apparently, The 3rd season's rumor isn't coming to life but i will never forget this drama : for real it's one of the greatest ever!

1) The reason I watched this : I didn't know that Taiwanese dramas existed until I watched this. I am a huge fan of "Itazura Na Kiss": I read the manga, watched and totally loved the anime then I've seen all the dramas adaptation; this one was the last incarnation that I've seen.

2) Storyline/Plot : This drama has the closest adaptation of the manga; it followed it literally without much change. It was faithful which made it enjoyable.

3) Acting/Cast : Like I said before this was my first Tw-drama so back then I wasn't familiar with the cast but i loved the acting plus supporting roles were extremly awesome along with all the side stories.

4) Music : I don't actually remember the music clearly but I think it was nice.

5) Rewatch value : one of the fewest dramas that I check out sometimes. If you do rewatch dramas you will definitely rewatch this.

6) The ending : It was extremly good the kind that everyone wants to see while watching a drama but I wouldn't consider it an "End" since there's a second season.

7) Overall : I am so not into chinese languages but while watching this drama I totally forgot my dislike and focused on the story.
Basically, if you're Itazura na kiss's fan you must watch this.

To tell the truth, I've been uncertain about starting this drama and later I have seen why. It is very slow-paced and leaves an imprint of something long and lasting- that's where it captures the viewer. It tells a different tale in a realistic, brutally realistic way that shows how far a life can go. I took my time to watch it; for more than one month and I found it quite enjoyable. I recommend it because it holds a whole lot more than a drama can. A well-written story of a family and its housekeeper who cope and struggle with the world around them. Cast that slide right into their roles, and played them beautifully. It offers a big, meaty, flavorful slice of real life.

Dream high is a must watched Kdrama for me because it has the extraordinary story of people who want's to be in entertainment scene.. and me as a viewer who one's has a dream to be a singer someday inspires that if you really have the talent,skills,motivation and goals you will be able to reach that dream.

It's a plus that they pick the right actor's and actresses to play those roles and i really love all the songs and performance that they made i actually download it then listen to it a couple of times and even memorize the song "winter child" that suzy(hye mi) sang in one of the episode. it really touches my heart when she sing'a that sincerely to taecyeon(jin gook).

This is just as good as the anime, and manga. I am so happy This exsists. If you've seen the anime or read the manga, you know how the story goes. But don't let the fact that this is a live action discourage you! Please check this out I promise you wont be dissapointed :)

The reason I gave this drama a perfect 10 out of 10 is because this truly is one of the best dramas I have ever seen. Never in my life have a seen a live action done so perfectly, I dont even feel like its just a drama. While watching this, don't be surprised if you occasionally shed a tear, wheather it be from saddness or full on laughter. The acting in the drama is done so well it feels as if you are actually there, like its not even scripted. (Except for the intense humor. I doubt such funny things could happen in real life xD) I hope you do find the show as entertaining and heartwarming as I did :)
