My first K-drama. Thanks to this I got hooked up in this world. A friend recommended Korean dramas and I was like "Who in the world watches them". Now I have watched more than 100 dramas and I should say thanks this one I guess ! The usual rich guy poor girl formula but when Koreans did it I fell in love with this world. Anyone who watched this one would never forget Lee Min Ho as Gu Jun-pyo and his peculiar hair style. Gu Jun-Pyo, Geum Jan-di and F4 would remain in everyone's heart for a lifetime I guess !

This is one of my favourite K-dramas till date. I loved Jang Keun-suk as Hwang Tae-kyung and Park Shin Hye as Go Mi-Nam. Found Jeremy cute and Kang Shin-woo as caring.Watching A.N.JELL was total fun. Don't know how many times I have re-watched this one.

Funny and suspenseful drama!

The story itself is good and solid, with overall good characters and great acting, it is very enjoyable to watch.

There's not much to say about the story, and I can't say much without giving main plot point away, but it's pretty evident, fight each other -> team up to fight ghosts -> fall in love. It's well played and the show goes from cute/fluffy moment to suspense to plain comedy to slight horror very well and naturally.
The ending was quite predictable but good anyway.
The ghost stories are quite good and I love the way ghosts are shown in the drama, it's just a bit scary and works very well.

Lee David and Kang Ki Young are amazingly funny, make up for one of the best bromance ever and often steal the show. It's worth watching just for them.
Lee Do Yeon and Kim Sang Ho are also amazing comic relieves.

I hesitated quite a bit before watching that drama because of most reviews and critics about the ending, but I enjoyed it.

It's clearly not the best drama, the plot becomes muddy at times, and after a while, it does become repetitive.
BUT, the actors are amazing, and they are really selling the characters and their dynamic. The chemistry between Gil Da Ran and Kang Kyung Joon was evident for me even before the body swap. Gong Yoo was absolutely convincing as a teenager trapped in a man's body. The two main characters are cute together and the interactions with the family are lots of fun.

As for the ending, I actually liked it. I like open endings and the fact that you could project whatever you wanted in it suited me quite well, but if you like clear defined endings, it will be beyond frustrating.

(okay, it probably deserve less than a nine even if I loved watching it, but considering how bad other reviews are, I'll leave it at that)

It's a nice classic drama.

The love between the main characters is simple and evident. Their story itself flows quite well, there are no crazy plot twists and thousands of problem coming between the main characters (well, just what's needed to last the 16 episodes).
All the students' stories are nicely intertwined even if the show construction - 1 case at a time - is basic, it works very well.

I just couldn't quite buy Gong Yoo as a high school student... or at least not as someone younger than Gong Hyo Jin.

This drama may already come off as slightly dated, so hurry up and watch it!

These special episodes of the drama gives you the insights, behind the scenes, the making of the drama moments and so much more. It was really fun seeing how the cast members connect, joke around and give their own opinions. I was amazed by the fact that there were so many people casted as extras (+300)!

If you're a fan of the series and you greatly enjoyed the episodes, there are 3 specials episodes of the Love in the Moonlight series including behind the scenes, the bloopers and never seen before scenes. You'll enjoy it!

The story guys...It is the story that made me give a huge 9 for W \ Two Worlds..
Yes, it is different from any other prior dramas but it doesn't end here...If you have a thing for the thin line between fiction and reality or a thing for plotting a story, you should just go and watch this.
Telling about it will not do..
I was afraid of the ending and from time to time I got really impatient because of the narration and retros\realizations but then again this is not that important after all.
Both leads looked like they indeed were characters from a manhwa/cartoon and the writer Oh song mun, though he made me furious from time to time he knocked his role, So I give it to the ajusshi who played this role.
Be ready for ups and downs between the 2 worlds..;)

Honestly, I wasn't expecting much when I started watching it, but I got hooked very quickly!
Why? Because of the characters. The premise of the story is quite interesting (more interesting than the synopsis lets you think) but for me, it fell flat quite quickly.

The characters only are a reason to watch this drama They are wonderfully written and all the actors are doing an amazing job.
The male lead's sister is one of the best character ever. She's crazy and over the top but in such a great way, you can't help but love her. Her scenes with his best friends are also some of the best (on a side note as a native French speaker, those French speaking moments were a mix of hilarity and wtf?!).
The male lead's brother and his girlfriend came off a bit stupid at the start, but they grow on you quickly and are just adorable.
Kim Mi Kyung (as the female lead's mother) is as amazing as ever.
It's rare to see so much evolution in secondary characters in dramas. The were a great part of the show, and let's face it, I was quickly in more for the 2 other couples than the main one.

The plot itself is quite good, I liked the revenge aspect and the repercussions were played out quite well. However, I found the story became a bit predictable after a bit.
I just couldn't quite buy the whole "seeing the future" part, thankfully it's a very small part; I quite liked the reason behind it, it's such a great idea really, but the way it was explained seemed unnatural and forced. The writer(s) just told us part of the plot, a part that no one in the story should have been able to understand.

This drama shows you the work behind sounds in movies/series, and that is quite interesting, I had never really thought about it, and you'll probably find yourself paying attention to all the sound effects in the drama like I did!

First of all let me tell that i never expect this much fun from this drama. But i literally laugh out loud in many scenes. Their no dull moments and i watch full episode without skipping any scene and this happens very rare.

Story : it is good but not the best.
Acting:
Yeon Woo Jin oh my god i love him. and now i m going to watch his other dramas.
i must say Han Groo (Joo Jang Mi) is improving in every episode.
every character done their best i hate Gong Ki Tae's dad most.... :) but he act well.

Great fun show with lots of plot twists!

This drama was overall very fun and enjoyable to watch, perfect if you want to be kept on the edge of your seat. The mismatched set characters really works and you can't help but like all of them. The dynamic is great between them and I appreciated that the bromance aspect took over the romance one.

It's also quite nice to see that the "bad guys" weren't the usual mean and evil guys, but more realistic ones.

Seeing this drama's trailer on the front page of MDL made me watch this. It was only the 2nd historical Korean drama that I've watched, so based on the genre and concept, I can only compare it to Hwarang.

It has everything: action, comedy, romance, drama. For some reason, I really admired the first couple of episodes but I started to lose interest very soon. Probably because the storyline was quite unrealistic and predictable at times. I felt obligated to continue watching. Despite the plot holes, I was really drawn to the gender-bender side of this series although it irritated me at times. The lead couple had an amazing chemistry. Although I'm really late on this one, this was the series where I discovered the amazing Park Bo Gum. Damn, he has charm and his acting skills are top notch. The soundtrack was quite powerful as well which made the drama even more emotional and enjoyable.

This drama is an easy-to-watch historical series for beginners that are only starting to get interested in the genre. Especially romance genre lovers, beware of the cutesy/lighthearted romance scenes and start watching this!

Honest review from an IGOT7.

I love the boys, and this was fun to watch, but let's be real. The story was basic, predictable and unoriginal. Their acting was cheesy and even cringey at times. Just ask any of the members how they feel about the show and they would agree. The music is great because, it's GOT7. I would probably never watch it again, except in clips to laugh at. Overall, it was "OK". It wasn't so bad that I couldn't watch all of it, but I laughed at most of it. I'm sure with some proper training and better writing, our boys would be better actors. Just look at our "top star" Jinyoung, he's been in a couple of supporting roles now.

A good and interesting lakorn.
as for those people who says that there is no chemistry between the leads, watch and judge but for me there is. both good looking.

Min is an evil witch, i hated her so much. but its normal in every lakorn to have an evil witch.
GIVE BUANG HONG A TRY!! I LIKED IT SO FAR.

Two of my favorite actors are in this drama and they are Yamapi and Aragaki Yui. Both played their character extremely well.

Story: the story of the drama is pretty well set and clear. 4 doctors are on training to become better. At times they usually cared about riding the helicopter more than saving a persons life. I enjoyed how it become their goal to be honest well for one character they wanted to ride on it but had to show they could. The character development was pretty good. I don't really know if they talked about Hiyama and Shiraishi's past a lot or their goal. It was amazing to see the two guys working hard each day for their loved ones. The story of each episode got me interested to watch the whole drama.

Music: Music was fine I got used to the ending song and it was ok. The OST was ok as well it showed up during the right moments.

Cast: Lots of popular actors in this drama especially Yamapi and Aragaki also Toda too. I really like Kuroda-sensei's actor because I've seen him before in Nurse Aoi.

Rewatch: I'll rewatch it again but they do have more seasons and special to keep up with.
