And they called it puppy love

This is a highly anticipated drama that I am so satisfied with for once. I know the limitations that come with anticipation, and from the actors and all parties involved. I could either fully love or fully hate, this one I am stepping back and will just say that it’s not living up to expectations because I really didn’t have any.. but it’s actually really good.

for the first time in a while for me I’ve found a romantic comedy with an absurd idea but this time the drama does it right by going full comedy. This drama is truly a comedy and the ideas and scenes all meshing together make it a fun watch, and one where I still care about the characters and their relationships.

The music fits very well with the drama and so far the casting is perfect for me. The female lead has puppy like mannerisms in some scenes that I had to rewatch because she is too cute, Park Gyu-young is another actress I haven’t seen too much of. I hadn’t seen any romantic comedy of hers before but she is so fitting for this role. She has this energetic charm to her and her whole situation of being cursed is fun to see play out, especially how she got into that situation.

Cha Eun Woo is so wholesome and cute and I love him with all my heart. I can see his role developing and I’m looking forward to it. It’s not too much for him and he’s doing what he does, and I think that’s fine and I really enjoy it. He’s got this presence to him that is charming and lead male material, and he fills those shoes pretty well. Lee Hyun-Woo is finally back to a romantic comedy and is just how I remember him, a more matured and cute guy now-

This drama goes all in with its idea and doesn’t take it self too seriously. It balances everything nicely and I’ll add more as the show progresses, so far I’m looking forward to it and am so happy to finally have a good romantic comedy in 2023 that feels like a romantic comedy.

Saimori Miyo was the unfortunate child of a loveless, arranged marriage. After her mother died, her father brought in his lover and her own daughter, Kaya. From then on, Miyo's life was reduced to that of a mere servant. Even worse, while Kaya inherited the family's psychic abilities, Miyo had none—she was truly the daughter with no merit.

From a painful upbringing to a painful marriage, that's the future that awaits Miyo—or so she thought. Contrary to her expectations, her new husband is actually kind-hearted. What really awaits Miyo is a blissful, everlasting marriage full of happiness!

the ost is incredible too like its just so peaceful but works with the show as well, as well as also being great music to listen to in free time ??

i would recommend 2521 to anyone because its child friendly as well, and its just such a sweet story.

although the main storyline is romance, there are many other parts of the show that can make the show more interesting for those who may not be the biggest fam of love stories/romance

overall such a good show and would recommend to anyone because i know youll like it ??

decent show

decent show, some violence though
k2 was the first kdrama i watched and although i had some mixed opinions about it as i was watching it, i definitely felt like the show was worth watching.

the storyline is quite unique, along with the male lead and female lead’s lifestyle.

ALSO THEYRE LITERALLY SUCH A CUTE COUPLE like i love their romance because its so sweet.

ive probably watched the k2 about 4-5 times (im not too sure why tbh) but i still enjoyed it everytime for many reasons

im not too sure if i would recommend this show to everyone, feels like the kind of show some people would drop because the story gets a bit slow, but if your into the themes listed in the show, and you like watching kdramas, i would definitely recommend.

Watch for the comedy, not the romance.

Rolled on the floor laughing at their humor, very creative and unrepetitive. Multiple plot twist at the end that twisted so much the writer lost control of their own narrative and storyline. Ignored plotholes just to make the plot more thrilling. Unfortunately, the relationship between ML and FL is not reinforced at the end, feel forced. Even the side character relationships are more entertaining to watch than this couple. The crime is mediocre and doesn't make sense at the end (due to plot twists). An innocent bystander ended up solving the whole case and providing the evidence to catch the murderer, doing more than ML and FL risking their lives investigating all movie.

Watch if you can ignore a dumb story for the laughs and cries.

Topnotch story, amazing ensemble acting superstars and perfect direction

????? 5/5! Highly recommended to watch with its intricate storytelling, character depth, acting performances, emotional resonance, and the finale's nonstop action!

This is the best webtoon turned Korean superhero TV series for me (I think this is also the Best Korean Drama this year.)
Han Hyoo Joo, Ryu Seung Ryong, Jo In Sung, Go Yun Jung, and almost all other casts including even the villains are fantastically written. The webtoon writer Kang Full is also the same as their screenwriter so you can imagine how top-notch writing was overwhelmingly done.

It's like John Wick, Xmen, and Crazy Little Thing Called Love movies are all rolled into one. If you haven't joined the craze over this series, please see for yourself.

Best Part of the Series:

- Han Hyo Joo and Jo In Sung's electrifying chemistry. Can anyone please hear me when I say, these two should have another separate K-Series?
- Ryu Seung Ryong's dramatic chop. I will say in advance he will win the Daesang with that performance.
- Go Yung Jung's acting. She is one of the rookie actresses I think will really become someone very popular in the future.
- Han Hyo Joo's chameleon acting talent. She just played a school student (in a flashback scene) for the series Happiness and just a couple of months after ending taping the show, she is acting already as a mom. And boy, her acting is soooo believable.


Fave scenes:

- When Lee Jaeman unleashed the hell out of nowhere and beat 2 powerful North Koreans to a pulp that they couldn't even fight back. Imagine if Kang Hoon gets proper training to be as strong as his dad.
- 2 Daddies of the Year Ju Won and Jae Man teaming up!
- Lee Mi Hyun shows the true range of her superhuman senses. She has more kills in the finale than the rest. Mother is truly mothering.
- Kim Bongseukie and Heesoo's late tactic against the flying villain
- The villain's helpless and pitiful backstories.

People will do whatever it takes to survive; those who will not do so are bound to perish. 



— Review Part 1 —

People will do whatever it takes to survive; those who will not do so are bound to perish.

It is a very well-written story, and although it cannot be considered historically perfect, I found it to be largely accurate.

Romance might be at the centre, but its historical war setting plays just as big a role, too. Its intense focus on the ruthlessness of war, neatly tackling transformation, development, longing, loss and the deep unfairness of life, is nothing less than top-notch.

My Dearest not only explores life in times of war but people's reactions to it, and as such, war is questioned by many of the characters from different perspectives.

Of course, in times of war, prisoners were victims of constant physical and psychological abuse, torture and humiliation, and the unfairness of it all could reach inhumane limits.
The women were the target of rape and sexual abuse and were even expected to take their own lives if there was so much as an encounter with an enemy because, to society and their families, they were not pure anymore.

It is outstanding how most of our main characters show a grey moral character and emotional flaws, and their bad traits receive as much attention, or even more, than the good ones.

The costumes, scenery, cinematography and realistic scenes of the horrors of war are the best I've seen in a sageuk.

A must-watch.

24 episode would've been better

i love the plot soo much, it's very interesting to see ancient character in the modern world and i feel like the story was well-told. here's the thing, towards the end of this series it started getting boring and i barely made it through the last 9 episodes for some reason, they could've done the solution/ending of the plot wayyyy better.
overall this drama was really good at the beginning and it gradually got stretched.
the ending wasn't as memorable or complete in my opinion and i feel like they left some things out tho i can't tell what those things are, at the same time so many unnecessary things happened the last few episodes.
(this is my first review idk how to express my opinions, apologies)

Keep walking. I will be right behind you.

This was one of the movies I had been procrastinating due to the heavy theme ─ although I heard nothing but positive reviews about it. It truly deserves recognition and praise, and no wonder has been one of the most memorable c-movies for many.

While the theme is quite heavy, it also needs a careful and realistic approach, which I think they did right. There wasn't any glorification or gaslighting. It was raw and candid. The characters, of course, had flaws ─ even the main lead because she also, like others, chose silence before becoming a victim ─ but those flaws were understandable and for some, relatable.

One of the aspects I like is that they hinted that bullies became the people they are because of their parents, but they didn't use it as an excuse to demand redemption from the audience. Because at the end of the day, it was their own choice to become that person and not a better person.

The acting was really authentic, especially when they used silence and their eyes to deliver emotions. Cinematography and soundtrack, as well as symbolism they used, were phenomenal, added another layer of depth and a fresh point of view to the story. Love the dialogues as well. They are so beautiful and meaningful.

I'm glad I finally gathered my courage to watch this movie and also glad that they gave us a glimpse of hopeful ending.

the acting is crazy

first i’d like to say i just started this because of rowoon. i wasn’t expecting anything from it but it’s actually so good. i watch it really fast like in 2 days or something. the storyline is good but not great. the thing i love the most about it is the acting. both rowoon and bo ah shows the emotions really well. i feel like it’s happening right in front of me when im watching it. especially the scenes in the past, like when aeng cho died i literally cried for 2 hours and it wasnt even that emotional, but the acting was top notch so i cried a lot. it was funny too. i laughed so hard sometimes.
the mist memorable scene was the octopus scene i think. it was so funny and cute, i watched it like 19 times.
the chemistry between them is also amazing they look like an actual couple.
overall it’s really good and you should definitely give it a shot!

short but so cute

i was so devastated when i found out that it was just 4 episodes . i waited so long and i was so excited so i was crushed but now i think it was the right choice. it ended very well. i just wished to see more of them as a couple but still so good. especially the chemistry between sohee and hyung sik was remarkable both on and off screen. i watched all of the interviews and they are amazing.
seeing han so hee as a song writer made me feel things lol she was so good. im not even gonna mention how great hyung sik’s acting was. he is always good! he portrays the emotions so well.
i just finished rewatching it and now im pretending there was 8 episodes lol.

Great visuals, bad plot

Was really excited for this movie, since I like Jeon Jong Seo, but was left with disappointment. The visuals are absolutely stunning, actors did a great job, but the plot (or lack thereof) was just terrible. I get what they were trying to do, but it just didn’t come out good. The action scenes were great, and I think that that’s the only thing they put effort into. It felt like something was missing, I even thought I accidentally missed a part of the movie, but the plot is just really that bad. I hope that Jong Seo’s next project will be better, because this was just a waste of her talent.

This was fantastic

One Piece ?:Netflix

(PG-13 for language, violence & self harm)

PROS:
◇The acting
◇The plot
◇The cast
◇The action scenes
◇ Ep 7 ?


CONS:
◇Certain scenes/choices didn't make alot of sense to me personally. That being said maybe it was in the OG and wanted to keep it that way. Not sure.
◇I honestly only have one was the use of so much language it felt force at times.

Overall really enjoyed this show and I am a fan of the live action OP. I still need to officially chexk out the manga and anime.

Rewatch? Yes when 2 season is complete I'll rewatch the 1.

a series of gender discrimination was mentioned in the series

I missed this series ? I loved it so much, I thought it was just a cliche and nonsense series but no, it was very lovely ?? It was full of good feelings. And finally there is a series that will make you feel good every minute ? and the most interesting thing was the relationship of the main couple of the series, unlike the other couples of Kdrama, the couple of this series have a very healthy and mature relationship, they don't fight or break up over trivial things. They didn't get upset, their relationship surprised me a lot. Also, a series of gender discrimination was mentioned in the series. This is what makes this series special for me. It was great, I enjoyed watching it??❤️
