ehhh
after trying to watch the chinese version (and failing because lord have mercy its painful), i switched to this one and its actually much better in my opinion. although i did have some trouble going through some episodes because it would get boring and repetitive, but i still managed to get through and it wasn't even that bad. it isnt the best but its watchable...i guess im not really a big fan of when people cant take a no for an answer and just keep forcing themselves to the person. its noy my cup of tea but it had its cute moments.Vond je deze recentie nuttig?

Bruh
This is just one big BRUH moment. I honestly felt zero connection with most of the characters except for the lesbian side couple. They were the only reason I kept watching this boring ass kdrama. This was just the most frustrating watch ever, especially since this story follows a girl whos head over heels over a guy whos CLEARLY an asshole and no he will not change lol, im still pissed they made her end up with him when he showed 0 signs of development and actually changing as a person. All he did was apologise a bit and that was it for her...Potato boy deserved better!! And that ending scene where she longingly looked at him through the window makes me think she might've regretted her choice in the end, which is both satisfiying and also frustrating at the same time.
ALSO I was really looking forward to seeing the GL side couple share a lil cute kiss or a lil more scenes atleast but I'll take what I can get.

SATISFYING REVENGE KDRAMA
Especially in season 2...wow, watching the bad guys get what they deserve is just..MWAH!! I am a bit confused about the ending, like why were they walking inside a prison?? Or maybe I was distracted and didn't see the full clip lol...but yeah besides that I have literally zero complaints. Just such a great kdrama and amazing acting from every actor in the show. On a side note some scenes are gory and very rough but i swear its worth getting through the episodes to see the bad guys get their ass beaten!!Vond je deze recentie nuttig?
I NEED MORE OF THIS SHOW
I got this show recommended by a friend and the moment she told its got only 6 episodes i knew it was gonna be bomb. AND IT WAS!Listen 6 episodes are easy to fuck up too, its not like this show is one of a kind never done before but it was such a good build up and i liked almost every character in there!!! I was so invested and it was only episode 1. The arc the build up the plotwists, theres really nothing to complain about honestly. The only complaint I have is that 6 episodes is too short for such a good concept of a kdrama.
The detectives and their back stories and the fucked up family, it was all just so good. Such a good and quick watch although I was dreading the ending because of how immersed I got into this story.
Also I really wish they showed the siblings get along but I guess its a too far fetched of a wish…the plotwist in the end shocked and disgusted me, I had all sorts of theories under my belt but it never would’ve been that…Oh well. Good shock value.
I recommend this a lot!! Amazing actors and acting, such a good quick show.

COMFORT KDRAMA!!
Oh goddd where do i begin with this one?I finished this kdrama a long time ago, maybe in 2020 and i’m rewatching it with a friend of mine right now. It’s one of the most comforting, feel good, a slice of life kdramas. I really recommend it! Of course it’s not going to be everyones cup of tea but this was such a silly and cute show, every character was likeable (except for the ex until the end) and well built and had good chemistry with each other. I thoroughly enjoyed it and recommend for anyone who enjoys silly kdramas like this to watch it!!

a MUST watch
i started this kdrama a couple of hours ago and i finished it all in one sitting. its very rare nowadays for a kdrama to catch my attention like this, but jesus christ this was one of the most interesting eye catching kdramas ever. not one episode was boring and each cliffhanger ending made me want more. such a difficult watch because of how the violence and sometimes you get frustrated watching it— but it’s just something you can’t keep your eyes off. acting was phenomenal especially from the actor of sieun, the performance when he finally brokedown and yelled in school before punching the window in the corridor struck my heart with pain. everytime he would express sadness i would feel it with him…just amazing casting. on a side note: what i felt was unnecessary was youngyi’s sudden involvement into their friendship? perhaps thats why i was on beomseoks side for a while even though at some point i just stopped defending him and slowly started to dislike him, i still feel zero connection with youngyi…her character feels so unnecessary if we don’t look at beomseoks jealousy. but i guess she was only needed for stirring stuff up with beomseok for the sake of the plot but still it just felt so random that they befriended her…overall such a great show. sieun and sooho have the best chemistry out of everyone in the show. you can just tell they care for each other a lot…love those two the most<3Vond je deze recentie nuttig?
EASY 10!
Jason Kim, you have done it again.I knew from the moment this movie’s description said “Jason Kim director of Bloodhounds” that this must be just as good. AND DAMN I WAS RIGHT!!!
Kim Woobin fits these type of roles so well, from Black Knight to Officer Black Belt, truly an amazing performance.
Now the thing that roped me in was the plot, and I genuinely have no complaints against this movie. It was entertaining, it was emotional, it had likeable characters (the good ones ofc lol), and above all, the friendships that bloomed and the character development was beautiful. Kim Woobin’s character went from being a little immature and seeking fun in everything and never being serious, to opening a whole new dark world and inevitably getting sucked into it. Its easy to immediately seek out justice once you see what horrible stuff goes on behind closed doors.
Now that everything is coming out in Korea about CP distribution, SA’s and offenders not being properly prosecuted, I feel like this was a perfect movie to come out right now. Maybe it’ll make people of Korea watch this and realise how disgusting and very real these situations are.
Certain scenes were hard to watch since they didn’t censor how disgusting these cases can get, but thankfully it was never cruelly or gruesomely depicted as for example ‘Silenced’ movie did.
So, it’s own level of graphic will make you cry or atleast make you sick to your stomach.
I haven’t watched a movie in one sitting in a while, this was an amazing watch. I truly recommend it! But as always with these type of movies, be careful watching it and make sure you’re in the right headspace to do so.
Amazing movie!

it had potential
the plot itself is really interesting and even reminded me a lot of black mirror. the ai futuristic movies always catch my attention, especially since detroit become human is one of my favourite games and some aspects of the movie reminded me of that too…however,,the movie had a terrible way of showing and unraveling its plot. half of the time i had no idea what was going on. and in the end the things i was curious about never really got answered?
the plot was confusing, the rules were confusing, gong yoo’s character going between reality and ai world was confusing (how was he the only one to be able to do that?) the plot with the grandma and grandson being left in the dust(really what was the point in their storyline?), and after the mother crashed the entire companys network…what did that even do? why did no one react to it?, and why was gong yoo’s character so curious and obsessed particularly by the mother?everything in the movie felt like it was added there just to fill the 2 hour mark. most of the stuff made no sense and were super vague and it felt so unsatisfying at the end?
i’ve gotten invested halfway through because like i said before its got a really good plot potential but it just seemed to be wasted…it tried to have interstellar vibes (imo) but it was just….so bad.
so many great actors in the movie made me think it wouldn’t be so bad…but i guess not.
the acting itself wasn’t bad but just…the entire movie and the plot…agh its so frustrating. definitely could’ve been done better!

two crazy people falling in love!!
AGHHHH i love this show so much!!!Its exactly like the title says “mad for each other”, and the two love interests were certainly crazy and mad for each other LOL
i didn’t expect myself to love this show as i would, but every episode was freaking hilarious and so fun to watch.
to break it down for you *starts break dancing*
okay for real, to break it down, its essentially a woman with some sort of OCD/ PTSD disorder who falls in love with a cop whos got anger issues.
when those two were first introduced i was curious on how they would make a MAN with ANGER ISSUES…seem like a good lovable character. but oh my god. I LOVED HIM.
both characters are most certainly insane and the shows title didn’t lie one bit. but their craziness was done well because it blended well with the humor and it evened it out.
this show was seriously silly and funny, there’s many moments that made me laugh, especially the ending where they made up ? you’ll see what i mean if you watch it!
overall, the characters in the beginning were frustrating (especially the FL) but its obvious that that was the whole point of it. so it didn’t bother me, because thats how she was meant to be lol.
but other characters (such as the women neighbours) were also a little annoying in the beginning but they had their development once a man who dresses up as a woman was introduced and they learned to accept him for who he was.
thats also something i wanted to mention, its how the ML was always so supportive and open to that neighbour characters choice of dressing up as a woman and being referred to as a woman. everyone in the show didn’t show any transphobia or homophobia, it was refreshing.
such a well done show, everyones dynamics with one another was flowing smoothly and i thoroughly enjoyed every second of it.
the one little nitpick i have is the makeup in the show, i think the FL had so much concealer that it was painfully cakey whenever she was on screen, sometimes i could even see the makeup on the ML, but like i said its a small nitpick of mine. it didnt bother me THAT much but i kept noticing how at the moments where the FL should look distressed and as if she has no makeup on, she clearly has makeup on and its cakey! ? but that doesn’t matter fr, the rest of the show was really good.
i recommend it!!

Time travel but a drag on
I usually enjoy time travel based shows, and usually they’re always well done. Can’t really make a time travel show boring right?Well….
Listen, I’m not saying this K-Drama was bad but throughout the show, things just dragged on unnecessarily long. So many plot holes left inside as well.
So the ‘clones’ that the main characters are switching between, what the hell happened to them? It just felt so surreal that they kept switching between the bodies and there seemed to have been zero consequences, just a few people going “oh you changed!”, but it only happened with Minju and Junhee.
What I also found a little weird, was how they made Siheons doppelganger …gay?
So Koo Yeonjun was gay, and then Siheon entered his body and made him date a woman. Doesn’t anyone else find that a little weird? I mean I get that wasn’t Yeonjun himself but if Minju was inside Junhee’s head and witnessed everything Junhee did while she was in her body, doesn’t that mean Koo Yeonjun was also in Siheons head as well? And then had to see his body be with a woman? Lol…just a huge plothole imo.
And I’m also curious if Koo Yeonjun stayed with Rowoons character in the end or not, they seemed pretty cute!!
Ingyu and Minju were also adorable, I was rooting for them since the beginning.
If I’m being completely honest, Junhee and Siheon didn’t have all that much chemistry. The actors are great and they acted well but, there was just no chemistry between them. I felt absolutely nothing whenever they shared romantic scenes together. It was just so boring and plain…their relationship seemed forced, and they had so much to work with in their story- I was hoping at some point I would see the chemistry but I just couldn’t.
Somewhere in the middle of the show, maybe around the time Junhee switched back to 2023 after being in Minjus body for the first time, things got even more boring and the show felt like it was being dragged on for so long. Everything was slow, and the plotwists were being revealed in the most anti climactic slow paced way.
I honestly think this would’ve been better as a movie rather than a show. So many episodes felt like filler episodes, or just something that didn’t need a whole episode dedicated for it.
The misdirect of the killer who somehow figured out how to time travel as well, and then not bringing him up ever again after they got rid of the time travel walkman? There’s just so many things they left unspoken.
Nevertheless, the last 3 episodes I forced myself to watch so I could finish this show, it actually wasn’t all that bad and it kept me engaged. I found Minjus character the most interesting, and I’m sad we got robbed of her character. I think they should’ve focused on her development in the series rather than making her breakdown in one episode and then suddenly being okay and content with her life in the next.
But other than that, the show itself wasn’t all that bad- but it did get super boring at some point. Unless you’re a huge fan of Ahn Hyoseop and Jeon Yeobeen , you would probably enjoy this a lot more. Other than that, in my opinion this isn’t something I would choose to watch to entertain myself since it wasn’t that much action filled as I had hoped. But it wasn’t all too bad either. Just more so focused on the love story between the star crossed lovers who have to switch between time lines to be with each other. So if you’re in a mood for a slow pace romance story, this is for you!

Forbidden Romance love story
I’m going to start off by saying that, I started this show like maybe in 2022 and then dropped it for a year- and then I realised I stopped it at like episode 13 and I was soooo close to finishing it, so I started it up again. Half of stuff that happened in the show I forgot already BUT, I really don’t understand why I dropped it when the show is actually really good?I think once the story went from North to South, it did get a little boring and it seemed like the story kept circling around the same problem- which is the brother wanting to kill Se-ri and the forbidden love between her and the North Korean guy. (Forgot his name sorry ?) But after finishing this K-Drama, I really regret dropping it mid ending, I feel like it would’ve been much more impactful and also, despite the fact that I forgot so many things when I started it again- I still cried so much ?!? ESPECIALLY WHEN THAT GUY DIED! I’m not going to reveal who (although I also forgot his name so…?) but I was so upset, literally what was the reason!!! Such a stupid and unnecessary thing honestly, that’s probably the only thing I disliked about the show- other than the fact that some things were a little dragged out.
Anyway I found out the main characters actually got married in real life and have a kid? Which makes so much sense because their chemistry was definitely chemistry-ing, such a beautiful couple!
Alright so, what I took from this is that- the show isn’t bad at all, it has a good plot and you know whats happening. I think the reason I got bored with it was because this story does really focus a lot more on the romantic aspect of the show- basically the love between Se-ri and the North Korean, and although of course there IS action BUT it is not as nearly a reoccurring thing like romance is. So much cheesiness, not just between the main characters but side characters as well.
So if you’re in a mood for a cheesy romance story which gives it a little spice because it’s forbidden…this K-Drama is for you!

Meeeooowwww (if you know you know)
Honestly, I REALLY enjoyed this movie!!I don’t know what is it with Korea and making bullying movies and shows but damn it…they do it so well.
From the beginning, the actors do such a great job because I was so frustrated and mad immediately!! I knew the characters needed development and a little push later but I needed them to punch the bully immediately like dang!!!
It was emotional, scary and yet, so so satisfying in the end.
There’s just something so cool about a vigilante teacher LMAOO
Though I wasn’t expecting the story to steer that way, I am so glad it did because man, I was never bored during this movie.
It’s crazy how you find your passion through such a weird situation, fighting bullies as a teacher but masked? Hell yeah. I hope this concept is done once more and maybe turned into a kdrama. So so good.
If you’re into revenge k-dramas, man i’m telling you this will feed you GOOD.

girl gets her bestfriend and cheating husband back, KARMA IS REALLLL
When I tell you, from start to finish I was soooo deeply invested in this story. I remember first finding out about this story through webtoon, people posting screenshots of a woman who has cancer finding her husband cheating on her with her childhood best friend. Its so deeply fried inside my brain that even though I’ve never read the webtoon, I still remember thise screenshots of the story.And then when I heard its getting a live action? DUDE YES!
Like not one episode was boring.
I saw a lot of people dropped the show because they didn’t like the male lead, but honestly ever since I saw him in Mr.Queen I literally thought he was so handsome, and seeing him get a role that’ll get him recognised made me so happy! And I believe he did a very well job and I enjoyed his scenes with Jiwon.
Alright so overall, really good revenge plot- everything was just so satisfying. The thing is, I LOVE, time travel and revenge plots- and these two being mixed together?! Literally best thing ever. I promise you, you won’t regret watching this. Though the show isn’t a ten for me because there are some plotholes, like, they never explain why Jiwons fate fell on her ex boyfriend and not on Sumin? I guess Sumin always had her own fate of ending up in jail I guess?
Also I guess you could say the way things ended in the end were a lil TOO perfect, like how did everything just fall into place perfectly ? Everyone who was single had a partner and got married and has kids like?? But I digress, I was really happy for Jiwon because holy shit, she really deserved the happy ending after going through all of that.
ALSO, was the ex manager (forgot his name but the guy who was an asshole at work), did he turn gay in the end? Because wdym he found his true self after love failed him….? I won’t jump to conclusions here but since this K-Drama is filled with villains, the least one I expected to have a redemption arc was the manager and it was so wholesome! I guess the ex classmates too but if I’m being honest their presence in the story wasn’t that special, when they showed up again I literally forgot who they were until I saw the girl in the middle and I memorised her cus she’s pretty lol…
Okay that’s all, I think the story was so cool- I wasn’t bored and I was so excited to wait for the new ep every time. If you’re like me and love revenge plots (as well as time travel), this is your show!!!

Good survival show
I’ve been putting off watching this show since it came out, despite the fact that my friends kept telling me to watch it because when I recommended it to my mom, she told me the show is stupid so I took her word for it and just never looked back.But today my friend told me to watch sweet home for them because season 2 is coming soon, and i was like eh why not, I have nothing to watch right now anyway, and WOW!!
This show does NOT disappoint. There were certain things that confused me at first like, why did the virus effect you when it wanted, or how come some viruses are more powerful than others and why are they using headphones and what not. (Google helped me out with these questions lmao) The reason I put it as 9.5 is because the show itself is AMAZING, world building and character development as well as relationships and the action scenes, everything is so well done, but the aspect that I found the most goofy were the monsters.
I don’t know I just can’t take the monsters seriously at all. The CGI isn’t bad but it’s just that they look like they came out straight out of a kids show, so it took the seriousness out of the show for me a bit. But otherwise I enjoyed the show a lot, despite the monsters being funny looking, it’s worth sticking around. I’ll start season 2 now!!

YOU WILL GET INVESTED!!
Okay i’m not exactly sure why it says 36 episodes when everywhere I searched there’s only 18 episodes available ?? BUT, I loved this kdrama!The concept was sketchy at first, I was curious how they could possibly make a romance show between a human and a robot, like I get these dystopian concepts but when you think about it, how could that possibly happen when robots are easily controlled by humans? I was very scared this show would turn into her sorta manipulating him into being with her but they made their story beautiful!
So much development between Sobong and the robot, their romantic scenes were honestly swoon worthy but that might just be me cus I have a crush on the actor hehe…
There were some admittedly stupid scenes in the show, like how most of the characters reactions to something shocking happening being like 3 days late, like I get it’s shocking but, stop gawking like a statue!!! It was honestly annoying a bit but i digress!
I was a little confused why the villain was shown so mysteriously in the jail looking off into the sun whilst his secretary talked to him, it just feels like there were still some plot holes left in the final episode, also about how they fixed up the robot after being practically killed like…yeah just so much happened. Somehow in the last few minutes of the final episode, everything was magically in its right place , it was satisfying but from a plot hole point of view it was just a big …eeeehhh…
Overall though I thoroughly enjoyed this show, I wasn’t bored at all and looked forward to every episode. I wish we got to see the ML and FL intimate a lil more often— granted he IS a robot so maybe that was always out of the script but whateverrr the actors had so much chemistry with each other, I needed more smh!!!
It’s a good show especially for it being in 2016, I guess that year was a prime year for K-Dramas. Really good !
