This could have been oh so much better
By now, we've seen so many FBI/CIA/NIS/Spy/Ghost movies and series that it's really hard to take this Drama seriously.They completely missed the mark here. It could have been so great if Everyone was completely oblivious that K was an agent (a ghost at that) and we (the viewers) were the only ones in-on-it... but no... Everyone and their mother in this drama knows NIS agents, ghost agents that are supposed to be "Secret" agents.
If this is fake then it's hard to sit through and believe the rest. The beginning had something, but it's all downhill from there and the ending isn't great either.
I should have dropped this by the middle (ep 7~8 ish) but like a fool I stuck to it only to be disappointed and regret having pushed through to the end. Oh well, win some and lose some.

Nice, easy to watch and entertaining
OK, so I really put off watching this drama based on the hot & cold reviews here and I am glad I did watch it.I don't get the hate towards this Drama, especially those saying some episodes are worthless (especially 14, 15 and 16).
Anyone who has watched more than 5 dramas could tell what they were doing and where this was going to go... They need to create drama, they need some redeeming arcs, they need some noble idiocy (I abhor it, but it's fairly common in dramaland).
I loved the chemistry between the leads and the cleaning team, they all worked well together. Made me laugh, cringe and even brought me to the verge of tears. Some moments I will rewatch as they cracked me up.

A short show to binge watch
You know the term "easy to watch", well it applies to this drama. Nothing really angsty happens and the events are so purposefully over-exagerated that you don't take them seriously. I also liked the 10 episodes format, thankfully they didn't drag the scenes too long.Netflix & Chill, follow our characters in their (kinda) daily lives in the fashion industry. I think the acting was good and they portrayed what we believed would happen behind the scenes quite well.
Not really my type of drama but I wanted something light, fun and easy to watch so I can relax by only using half of my brain. That's the show for it.
Would I rewatch it? Not in a million years, but it's good for a first, easy watch.

My first Family Drama .... and it did not disappoint
Suggested on Netflix and I have to admit, I dove into this drama without really any research and was hooked after episode 1.I then realised there were 52 episodes!!! I almost gave up right then and there but finally decided to stick to it. (I usually never started a Drama that had over 16 episodes until COVID hit and I had more time).
One more Chaebol drama, but this world I could really relate to, they took their time and developed it well. With 52 episodes, there were many scenes that dragged on and I'm sure they could have wrapped it up in 45 episodes easily.
I think every character got the ending they deserved, however I am sure that after 52 episodes some could have been wrapped-up better, I felt they just crammed everything in the last episode.
All in all, It was certainly a new experience, but one I am willing to try again.

If you like Park Shin Hye, this is a drama where she shines. Cute Rom-coms fit her perfectly.
It will bring you back to your youth, with a nice breath of fresh air.
OK, there’s not much of a plot here, but first loves, broken hearts, noble idiocy.. I found it very entertaining and found myself thinking about parts of this drama long after I finished it. I may even watch some parts again.
Support cast were awesome, the male singer even made me want to listen and discover the song “If I leave” which I am very fond of now (no matter who sings it). The Grandpa is just hilarious.
If you want a good time with no angst and minimal plot, just cute smiles, then this is for you

We all have our guilty pleasures. Technically speaking I am not supposed to like this drama, I mean, how could I?
Nothing meaningful ever happens, but I was completely won over by Jung So Min’s acting.
She carries the drama on her shoulders from start to finish. I understand that many might question her choices of just blindly following Hyun Joong around but I think she’s just blinded by her love for him. I also like the impact she has on him and that he makes his decisions based on what she says without even realizing (he does later on).
I take this bubbly, cotton candy drama for what it is, simple, fluffy and I really enjoyed myself watching it.

Easy watch, you won’t raise your pulse watching this and I found the acting to be very Vanilla. A lot of times I scratched my head on things that didn’t make sense to me but I guess it’s down to cultural differences. Did I enjoy myself watching this? kind of, but I would not watch it again.
I'll try another J drama though but i'll need a lot more action

Little did I know this 3 episode show was going to take me up and down this ride of Action, Revenge, Cute, Angst… wow! Just wow.
I don’t want to spoil it by saying too much but if you think of a Tarantino movie Korean style, that would be it.
A must watch if you like action. My only criticism: Why not make this a full 16 episodes drama? It had the plotline, the actors, the twists and sequences, I wish they would actually. Although in this instance 3 episodes work perfect.

Lightning in a bottle
Short but oh so sweet. I really liked the story and the message of this show.
There isn’t much of a story you can tell in just two episodes but these were jam packed with a lot of emotions, I found myself laughing a lot and really liking the stakes.
The actors did a phenomenal job of conveying a spark (and it’s not easy to be likeable in a 2 episodes story).
My one regret would be that it was too short and by the time you really get attached to the characters the drama is over. I’d have easily watched 16 episodes of this.

What a disappointment, both in Story, growth, character developments, everything felt…. Unfinished.
I really had to force myself to get through the end of this show, maybe there was no drama factor here and I completely missed the plot, it was just meant to be an “as real as possible” interpretation of office life. Show, I really wanted to love you but you ended up disappointing me from the beginning.

Don't understand the hate in the comments?
I went into this drama based on the 9.0 score it has on MDL, but was a little dubious because the written reviews were so bad... it almost made me not watch it.This drama is a great watch, a nice script/story that maybe deserved better execution, but all in all, what's not to enjoy about our leads?
They had chemistry, they acted well, their storyline was good... what is so wrong?
Well, I'm not going to lie, there are quite a few plot holes, the time travel could have been done a lot better.... The killer, coming out of nowhere and following through time was really badly done, but the essence of the drama, the connection between 2 people who love each other, and always find ways to bump into one another regardless of the year (back or forward) was a nice watch.

Does this mean the show is bad? NO, does this mean they did not do a good job in the cast? NO, it's just that I could not relate as much as I could of the original.
Not all adaptations are successful, look at "Good Doctor", I absolutely love the Korean version and really don't like the US remake.
I might give this another shot as some stage but for now, you're going to the back of the bus.

Nice little Drama to pass time
I wasn't expecting this drama to be overly dramatic, and to make me think too much and .... it didn't.I was Good morning Ladies because that's exactly what I was here for.
The story we saw a million times, the office dynamics were predictable, but in the end, it was a nice and enjoyable drama without much anything happening.
It could have been wrapped up in half the episodes to be honest but they brought enough cute to fill the void.
Enjoyable drama but not one you will rewatch later on.

Complete waste of time I will never get back
As you can tell, I am not Japanese and while I have visited once and I love the food, one can say I am not familiar with the culture at all.But this popped up in my Netflix feed and I was intrigued. Sumo? interesting, while I used to think of this "sport" as basic, this show changed my mind. It is an enormous amount of hard work, pain... just like any athlete from any sport.
3 things bothered me however:
1. How can one bitter old man still manipulate a sport for personal gain in recent years is still beyond me. I understand there are traditions but this was wayyy over the top.
2. Isn't there anyone willing to go see these guys battle it out in the arena? completely empty stadium made the experience rather stale.
3. Probably one of my most disappointing endings in a show.
The whole story was a 5, execution was a 4 and the ending made it a 0. Total rewatch value? Zero as well. I know it should have had the opposite effect, but this show completely switched me off from liking this sport.

This could have been wrapped up in 4 episodes
I had such high hopes for you show, 8.7 in MDL ratings and a good cast but man oh man was it a painful watch.I have no idea how I made it through all 16 episodes.
Being a remake of a movie, they obviously had to create new plot points and drag it a bit but they wayyyy overdid it, to the point where at times I would have rather gone to see my dentist.
Was there potential? YES for a 4 episodes drama, not more. Rewatch value? Zero.
I regret not having the foresight to drop this drama halfway.
