Not Good Enough
The second season of the Korean Drama " Love Alarm " takes things from where the first season left off, years after the events that lead to the main couple splitting up. This season doesn't have the advantage of the school genre that always adds some innocence and freshness to the plot. It actually doesn't have a plot, as the story focuses on JoJo and her struggle to accept herself and her feelings. The whole drama about her art, her past life, and the shield was sloppily handled and the family drama was overlooked. The side characters were also boring.One thing that this drama had going for it, at least, was the strong performances from the cast, especially from the leading lady. The twist with the romance was original too. However, the whole drama feels strange compared to the first season, like it's not its sequel. Rather, it's boring and rushed.
So, overall, 4 out of 10.

Not Good Enough
The Korean Remake of the Chinese hit drama " A Love So Beautiful " fails to deliver, as it was too short and too cheesy.The story centers around high schoolers who are feeling the first specs of love. The first part of the drama is actually dedicated to their youthful years and, failing, however, to pass down a nostalgic feeling that most of the school dramas do, especially when they are placed in the past. The second part of the drama focuses, on the other hand, on their adult lives and that's when the drama starts, with the main relationship being tested and sometimes skips that weren't handled smoothly.
I guess the main problem that this drama faces is its short episodes. They try to have small cases per episodes, but the actual story can't be developed properly due to that. Another minus that appeared was the cliche of many situations that arose. From the old camera work to the cheesy romantic gestures, but, especially, to the female lead's reactions to everything that were beyond childish and ended up being annoying, the drama is just too predictable and not because its a remake. Come to think about it, the original was closer to the melodrama premises, with a focus on their adult life, family problems and more grown up drama. On the contrary, this one is more immature and gets boring easily.
At least the side characters were interesting and added some entertainment here and there when it was needed. The performances were pretty good from everyone in the cast as well.
So, overall, 3.5 out of 10.

The first episodes had some random editing, which almost ruined the drama for me, but, after those disastrous episodes, you get to know the characters and love them. They start bonding as well and becoming friends, which was pretty touching. However, some episodes were boring and some of them had over the top events taking place. But, the overall feel of the drama was fun and fresh.
So, overall, five out of ten for the first season.

Romantic Doctor, Teacher Kim 2
6 mensen vonden deze beoordeling nuttig
The medical cases of the first part were interesting and there were some others that were emotional and touching, but that's about it. The rest of them were few and unfinished. The only character that was interesting, in addition, was Doctor Kim, of course, and probably the second couple, which, however, didn't have any solid time to have character development, or get ot know them. The main characters however, felt watered down. There were some scenes, but very very few, that showed a bit about their past, but they never really explained things about them, like why the girl was getting nausea in the operating room, or some more details about Woo Jin's family. The two didn't have any chemistry and the few romantic scenes that they shared did not help them at all. The characters, overall, where boring and too typical. The political drama was just okay. There were however some nice notes to this drama. There was some character development for doctor Kim and we got to see a more human side of him. The nostalgia with the familiar settings and well known characters helped with the entartainment of the drama too.
Now, compared to the first season, this one was not as good. The political drama was boring as we already knew the "bad" guy and it was more like been there done that. The first season had more interesting characters whom we had time to get to know, which helped a lot with the romance. The characters had chemistry too, which this season was lacking. The medical cases were better too. Finally, there was more time to get familiar with the hospital and the crew.
So, overall, and taking season one out of consideration, six out of ten.

As a shoujo manga adaption, 4-gatsu no Kimi, Spica was really good. The romance was nice and over the top adorable, with sweet moments and a nice love triangle. Even the twist towards the end, though cheesy, it was nice. The friendship of the two boys were really good too. The characters' chemistry was pretty intense too. So, yes, the story is predictable, but it is cute, sweet, enjoyable and entertaining. The performances were really good too from all actors and actresses.
So, overall, eight out of ten for this manga adaption.

For once, a school drama focused more on the teachers and less on the students. The story was pretty good and I really appreciated that they didn't add a romance twist to it, so the drama focused more on the main character and her struggles to become a good teacher who helps her students. However, if I can be totally honest, the last episode was not as good. But, as a whole, the drama was good, sincere, warm and humane. The performances were pretty good too.
So, overall, eight out of ten.

I Picked Up a Star on the Road

That said, the start was good, with some suspence vibes and thriller scenes. The characters were odd and the situations even wierder. The events that followed one another and lead to the girl actually kidnaping the male lead were entartaining and funny. However, the rest of the story just didn't fit that fresh mold that the drama promised. The plot started getting predictable.
And then, there were the characters. The leading lady was cute, but kind of annoying. The male lead was just okay, but kind of weak. The second lead, however, was the real deal and I really enjoyed him. And their overall performances were really good.
So, six and a half out of ten for this drama.

U-Prince: The Badly Politics

drama (not that I minded, but it was a surprise). The story is okay,
kind of interesting, especially when it came to the little boy's real
family (the boy was adorable by the way!!). But then, from episode 10
till the end (thank the production that made it only 13 episodes long,
there would have been zero point in dragging the plot for another 3
episodes), the episodes were a few new scenes and everything a repeated
parade of flash backs, from everyone's point of view. That was my main
problem with this drama. Actually, the performances weren't bad, and
the love triangle had it's moments. So, 4 out of 10.

Good Enough
" Twenty Twenty " is an okay drama for its genre. It handled the story smoothly, keeping the pace hectic throughout the length of it. However, even though the drama wasn't boring because of it, it missed a lot of its charm, especially when it came to the love story. The romance on its own was kind of interesting, but felt undeveloped and rushed. The chemistry wasn't built and the love triangle was also half baked.The family drama, however, was pretty entertaining. The male lead's was overlooked at times, but the main one, between the mother and the daughter, was spot on. The second lead's story was disappointingly left unconcluded.
Finally, the performances were okay. Wooseok did a nice job, but the character he was portraying, for me, was contradicted by his image. The leading lady was just there in the first part of the series, but she nailed her dramatic scenes. The side characters were delightful to watch.
So, overall, six and a half out of ten.
