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.

at first I thought this was another of those chique movies you would see...but the stor y was so great it was like perfectly done from beginning to end.

everything was planned and I can see that they had made no flaws of obviousness unlike in other movies...

although I somewhat wasn't convinced with Angela Baby's acting(sorry fans), atleast it was compensated by Eddie Peng. but the movie together with the stars are a good maatch. a perfect one indeed....it made me cry when I shouldn't be actually because it's a nice story. JUST WATCH IT.

I RECOMMEND IT SO BADLY.

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 was an really well put , drama. At first I thought it was going to be a story about Two brothers , going on adventures ,but that quickly changed . I love the the team Yi Zhi Mei , and how they all work together to , face the toughest challenges . There were no down sides for me in this drama.Except that it was slow at some part , but I could live through them because of the great suspense and mystery , that keeps on dragging you to watch on.

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 :)

This. is my first review, and I wanted to save it for something I think really deserves a review. So here goes; This drama, is probably the unexpectedly touching drama I have ever watched. I find the acting so supurb I actually was in tears by the third episode. The music is great to, all of it composed for the drama. In fact the only thing I put a less than 10 on is the re-watch value because I just don't like watching shows more than once. :S

I was positively surprised. Story was great. At first I didn't think much of it. So I deferred watching this movie, but as the reviews were rather good I decided to give it a try. And I don't regret it.
Only thing that I don't like was the very ending. I really hoped there would be a some kind of more serious scene between Sang Jun and Hanna where they make up. :D May be I just didn't notice some important nuance at the end.
Anyways, If you are doubting to watch it, like I did. Then give it a try!!

I have to start by saying that this is a good drama that is worth watching. However, only a couple of things prevented it from being "great".

First problem, and I think many who have watched it will agree, that Wild Romance seemed to have lacked a little in the romance department let alone anything "wild". I WISH WISH WISH, there was more romance between the main characters, because I absolutely adored them! Lee Dong Wook and Li Si Young did an AWESOME job in their roles and I have become a fan of both of them because of this drama! :D This is actually rare for me to say but...I WANTED MORE LOVEY DOVEY SCENES BETWEEN THEM! Haha. But I did enjoy the few cute scenes they did share. LDW and LSY are what drove me to finish this drama and they never failed to make me laugh with their silliness. :DDD

Second problem, and I think I will gain a few haters by saying this, but the amount of air-time they gave Jessica (from SNSD) was just...too much. I mean c'mon... side characters are just...SIDE CHARACTERS! It really frustrated me on how much of the drama was focused on her. I have nothing against Jessica of course...I think she's a very cute girl. But like I said, it was just too much for me. But to those of you who are huge Jessica fans, BY ALL MEANS this is the drama for you! :P

As for the story, I thought it was exciting,suspenseful and mysterious and the plot was very good for a such a short drama and I did enjoy some of the songs in it as well.

Overall I think this drama is very underrated and deserves much more praise than it seems to be getting. :)))

I watched this movie years ago but I still remember its events clearly.
I was mostly attracted by the story : there was Action combined with romance (which is one of the favorite genres that I like to watch).
The story was like a moving painting with all the bright and dark sides of it just like other chinese Fantasy-Wuxia films that manages to keep you interested especially when there are fighting scenes on the screen.
The ending wasn't what we all want it to be but it's sort of expected for this genre of film.
If you're action-romance lover then this film's for you.

Just saw this movie through those recs that I have read. Well, as a viewer and a Kdrama-movie addict, I got curious and told myself "why not give it a try." Aside from the recs I read, I also learned that this movie(recent movie as rated) is on the number 3 spot. I just got more curious about it. So I scrolled my mouse looked for it to watch. As I was watching it, I was already hooked with the little girl's acting skills,(cried most of the time because of her). She really did a superb acting,just so natural. Also credits to Won Bin, I thought he was so effortless when he cried and act just like a pawnshop owner who was a former agent. That's why I gave the cast a perfect 10! Next is the story, well, I really thought that it was unique combined with action, love and friendship. It was my first time to watch this kind of movie so I was impressed a lot! I only gave 8 to the music coz to tell you honestly I forgot already the OSTs maybe they weren't remarkable. Next is the rewatch value, I can't be able to watch it again coz of too much torturing scenes and unlikeable scenes (which are totally gross). And I suggest you,viewers, to watch this movie coz it's a tearjerking one and inspirational at the same time.

A drama that you want to take time to watch and let it "marinate". The theme is about death, life, love..it's a bit much to digest. The ensemble did a really great job of telling the story. It tackled a lot of issues that anyone might face everyday. The drama had the right amount of drama, suspense and comedy. It was never draggy from the beginning to end. It's definitely a great drama to watch.

This movie is simply amazing.The story is full of love within the family which is heartwarming and can move anyone in tears.After I read the "coming back to life"concept of the movie.I said"Nothing new" ,"I know what will happen" but turned out wrong.The story is really different and has it's unique story that unpredictable. The three main casts did an outstanding performance that makes the movie more special.Though you might find the movie a little slow,I think it just help you feel the emotions and makes you go deeper into the story.The music is also good and makes the movie more beautiful and heartbreaking.The Ending is really awesome and not disappointing.It explains and answers all the mysteries and questions while leaving the audiences in a emotional state.Overall this movie is not a waste of time and REALLY worth watching.
