The opening of the movie shows a shocking scene, which for me set the mood for the rest of the movie and helped grab my attention.

Story: Let's be honest, it's not original. I've watched, at least, one other movie where the witness of a crime is blind. It, also, falls into thriller movie cliches, which makes it ordinary, but that doesn't not mean it's not good. It's actually quite absorbing and you can't help but to give all your attention to it. Also, I love the camera work and the way they blended the world of the blind with the world of the seeing in some scenes.

Acting/Cast: I liked the acting. I thought the ways the characters interacted with each other were very good. I'll admit I had my reserves about it after watching Kim Ha Neul in "You Are my Pet". She had failed to impress me in it. But I'm glad I watched this. She plays a totally different character than she did in YAMP, and does a really good job of it. Yoo Seung Ho is quite impressive in it too.

Music: To be honest, it wasn't bad, but it's quite forgettable. But it did what it was supposed to do in the moment, accompany the actions and pace of the movie.

I'll re-watch this movie eventually since I really enjoyed it.

This drama is really GREAT!
It was really touching and it made me cry so badly.
The story was so good and the cast did a great job also the girl that had the disease she really knew how to put out her feelings and emotions into her character ... it made it seem and feel so real specially because it's based on a true story.
This story has such a great impact on me that I started reading about the disease on Wikipedia and about the girl who got in real life also I tried getting her diary because it's made into a book.
Although I do think that the romance wasn't there I mean a would of been nice if there was more romance into but then again even without the romance this drama was really GREAT !

So I've watched the Korean one (You're beautiful) and this one and because I watched the Korean twice before watching this I knew what was going to happen and everything like that so I didn't get the fist hand experience watching this because I already knew the story line, but it was still really great, I laughed like it was my first time watching it and cried like I never knew something was going to happen.

All those 10 I gave... you must be thinking I'm just over reacting... well I'm not, trust me this drama is truly great and it's not over rated or anything the story was really nice and the cast did a really god job. There were really funny moments and sad moments where you're just bawling you eyes out like crazy, but putting both of them together is what makes it a good drama.


If you enjoy cross gender/dress , funny! , hot guys, sad crying moments, a strong girl , good music and romantic love story then you should really watch this.

The main lead (Jung Jae Young) is an awesome actor and portrays his character so well, supporting actors are good too.

The film starts with the simple and not so captivating story of the cop who is just doing his job very-very fairly. But then he is appointed by his chief as a fake robber during a play-war in the real bank, that's when it becomes more and more interesting. Contains very unusual and surprising plot developing. Some suspense and funny scenes)
You definitely won't find out how it finishes till you watch it to the very end. That's why I loved it.

The drama had a very good start, nice dialogues, nice colors, nice characters... the first episode has a complicated story and others are just a little bit simpler, which is why i gave a 9 to the story and not a 10.
each character is very interesting, and as someone who watches a lot of dramas this one is one drama i've enjoyed after a loong while.
and soundtrack is just awesome, i love it.

Kimchi Family was a gamble for me. I didn't find the synopsis for it all that exciting and I didn't even know who Song Il Gook was. I only started watching because Park Jin Hee was in it and I loved her in Giant and recognized her from the drama Still Marry Me...

Story- The first episode was just really interesting and the chemistry between the leads was so good. The possibility of a romance between them led me to want to continue watching and see what this drama was all about. As the drama unfolded I became more intrigued as there was a bit of mystery to some characters and how they were connected. . The romance was sweet and subtle as the plot was more about the main character finding out who he is and about his past. The synopsis doesn’t do this show justice, as yes its about the family ties that develop between the people who work and live at Earth and Man but its so much more. It’s heartwarming, engaging, and emotional. The ending is bittersweet.

Acting/Cast- Wonderful acting by the entire cast. Not just the main actors but the supporting cast as well. Everyone made their characters stand out. I loved all the characters and they really felt like a family to me. I'm glad I got introduced to SIG because I’ll definitely be watching out for other things he’s in=)

Music- Interesting score that fit the scenes really well. The OST was very good but nothing I’d listen to out of the show.

Rewatch- I’d definitely watch this again but not too soon.

Overall Kimchi Family was a pleasure to watch and I will definitely miss watching every week.

I can't believe how attached I was when I first watched this drama. Patiently waiting for one episode per week.

At first, I was surprised because I didn't know that Goo Hye Sun can sing (she's really great, but not that great to become a real singer).

It was very great during the first few episodes especially the fast pace of the love story (although disappointing). The song that Choi Daniel made was great but can they please not repeat the song for no reason at all?

This drama was just too confusing and disappointing. I really wanted to love this drama but during the "Falling Action," I was just left dumbfounded. The interest was gone and it bored me.

I super hate that musical actress bitch.

Overall, this is a so-so drama. :)

This a nice drama.

Although...

The guys are not as handsome as Lee Hongki, Jung Yonhwa and Jang Geun Suk.

The actresses were not as pretty as UEE and Park Shin Hye (especially!)

The plot was also lacking. That's what I hate about Japanese dramas -- the plot is always lacking.

Although the Korean version is more worth watching than this, for a Japanese drama, this could be considered as good.

And.... I love how they put Jang Geun Suk as a cameo although I wasn't really sure who he was there and what importance did he make in the drama. -- I guess they just want higher ratings.

I just rewatched this drama.

The acting was superb! Hyun Ki Jun is way tooo cute! Yoon Eun Hye was great and awesome as she was in Princess Hours and Coffee Prince. She's a really great actress!

The plot was funny and romantic. I love the Coke kiss. :">

What I don't like is the Hyun Ki Jun's younger brother. They could've found a more handsome actor (but he's ok). I didn't like the other girl. She wasn't that great.

Yoon Eun Hye's "best friend" here was funny -- and her husband.

Great drama! :D

Without comparing to the anime, this drama is superb! For the first time, I actually liked the live action better than the anime. The guys in the live action are more handsome than the ones in the anime.

I like the guys. They were all handsome except for the playboy guy. I like the girl. I've seen her in previous dramas like Mei-chan No Shitsuji and movies like Paradise Kiss. She's pretty and good. I love the little boy who acts as "dorm master."

This drama is funny and worth watching!

I started to watch this drama because of 1) Park Min Young because she's pretty, she acted fine in City Hunter and she's Lee Min Ho's girlfriend; 2) because of Lee Jang Woo since he's T-ara's Eunjung's make-believe husband in MBC's We Got Married, he's handsome and he's Hwanhee's cousin.

But sadly, this drama made me sooo disappointed. It's story was very similar (AS IN VERY SIMILAR, WAY TOO SIMILAR) to Baker King, Kim Tak Goo. I didn't like Baker King and I didn't finish watching it. While I was watching the 1st few episodes, I thought that the plot was familiar and it was similar to Kim Tak Goo and when I checked who the director and screenwriter was, they had the same production team working. I mean, how could they create another plot similar to a plot that didn't catch a lot of people's attention.

I was very disappointed. I liked Park Min Young and Lee Jang Woo but I was very disappointed.

This is my first review and I don't know if this will be helpful and maybe I might be going too easy on this. But I'll give it a try. :)

So I completed this drama yesterday and it left me with a good feeling. The ending wasn't the most interesting one I have seen, but it was more realistic that way, if it would have been too much "...and everyone lived happily ever after" I would have liked it, but it might be better this way. It left me having a sad feeling for that one character though, but that's given.

The story was interesting, pretty much predictable, till the end, but it was fun and sad. Something you could easily enjoy. This drama was one of those basic korean dramas which you can enjoy and you don't need to think about anything too much. You want to cheer for main character's love and hope she ends up with the one you would prefer for her. Eventhough in real life many might have made another decision...or maybe not. It's love, you can't really stop your heart feeling like you do.

The acting...hmmh pretty much over-reacting scenes (especially Eun Bi and Cha) but they did their job well. If you NEED to think about their acting too much while watching it's bad, but if you watch smootly without thinking acting, only roles, it can't be that bad, right? ...and Kang Hyuk, I just wanna give him a hug. He's so adorable.

Music has the same rule. If you don't think about it and other sounds in the drama too much, it's good and means it has succeeded. But if you keep noticing something about sounds, it has failed. Music should fit to the scene. BUT I feel like I have heard Radiohead's creep way too much in way too many dramas and here I heard it again. That's NG.

Story- I gave it a perfect score mainly because it was really Ozmmm, Awesome, Fantastic, Masterpiece.

Acting/Cast- Nothing's wrong with the casting, I guess?

Music- I don't really care about the music of any drama, but I guess the negative 1 would be mainly because the song was sad? (I'm so unreasonable, sorry =D)

Rewatch Value- Once you watch it, you'll definitely want to to watch it all over again, I mean, it's so great that's what I felt.

Overall- 10, Masterpiece.

Hmm, When I was watching this, I was like "I wanna finish this ASAP". It makes you think what would happen next and makes you wanna finish it all in an instant. The twists were great as well as the cutting of scenes per episodes.
