Love Next Door Review - ZyKuu
"Two childhood lovers". Flawless. The story was so interesting and I felt as if there were no errors in the writing and everything made sense. This drama was very realistic in its approach on daily struggles and family issues that commonly occur, I admire the show for highlighting such situations. They really nailed the slice of life aspect. I believe that the entire cast was top tier. I loved both main leads Seung-hyo and Seok-ryu and I found that they were compatible in every way. Their chemistry was perfect no matter the type of relationship they had, and although their romance is a slowburn, it is most definitely worth the wait. The second couple in lead Mo-eum and Dan-ho had a very unique and exciting journey together. The parents of Seung-hyo, Seok-ryu, and Mo-eum were amazing and I loved how each household had a different type of parenting. The rest of the cast like Yeon-du, Dong-jin, Myeong-u, etc. aced their roles! I adored the flashback scenes between Seok-ryu and Seung-hyo because it only proves that fate exists. The OST was great, and I loved the colours and tone of the show. The show is practically perfect and I am a bit upset I finish it.Vond je deze recentie nuttig?
No Gain. No Love Review - ZyKuu
"A fake marriage that benefits both parties". The story was unique with a bunch of twists and turns that were unexpected. There were moments where I was left confused as some parts of the plot felt forced but overall it was an interesting route taken. One thing I noticed was the amount of sexual talk and innuendo throughout. I appreciated the show for stepping out of the typical comfort zone to talk about such topics whether it was for entertainment purposes or whatnot. The cast was amazing, and upon research I was actually mind blown to discover that the main lead Hae-young is 40 years old in real life. She is very pretty and looks very youthful in the show. Her acting is superb and I can tell she is a true veteran of the industry. I did enjoy the other cast members such as Ji-uk and Gyu-Hyun as they were great in their respective roles and I found them as key components for the comedy aspects. Ja-yeon was a character that I think did spectacular, and her romantic journey in the show was a doozy to watch. The OST is superb, but surprisingly I only began to appreciate it after the series was over as I barely noticed it during the show, which is odd for me. Anywho, this show does not scream out romcom, although it does do enough to be classified as one whilst being entertaining. Therefore you must check it out!Vond je deze recentie nuttig?

20th Century Girl Review - ZyKuu
"A love triangle that cuts deep into the heart". The story is very innocent and delivers a melodrama genre. The two main leads Bo-ra and Woon-ho were a perfect pairing and their chemistry was incredible. There were a couple intense scenes between Bo-ra and Woon-ho that lead to me being very emotional. One scene in particular was so saddening that I began crying, and this was due to the reason that every single aspect of this scene was perfectly orchestrated. In addition, the performances by both actors during these climatic moments were heartfelt and as a viewer made you feel empathetic towards them. The choice of OST was precise as I felt that the music played behind each scene heavily emphasized the magnitude of each moment, especially during the most saddening scenes. This phenomenal film is the definition of K-trauma and it will forever hold a special place in my heart.Vond je deze recentie nuttig?
Soulmate Review - ZyKuu
"The story of two soulmates". This movie takes you through the timeline of when the two main leads first met till the very end. The story did get confusing at some points, and you will be questioning things afterwards, but I believe that the premise of the film was delivered clearly. The acting was amazing, you could feel the emotion and pain the characters were experiencing through the screen. I loved the relationship between Ha-eun and Mi-so as they displayed what true friendship means. The character development in this film is beautiful and I loved the concept of death and life shown through both characters.Vond je deze recentie nuttig?

Nineteen Otters Review - ZyKuu
"Two traumatized students bond to escape home". Although the story did not feel consistent throughout, it labels many issues households may face whilst teaching valuable life lessons. The acting was decent, mainly carried by the female lead Jae Young. I was not too fond over the performance of the rest of the cast especially the male lead Woo Kyu. This drama special was a good watch, but nothing eye-opening. There are gems of advice taught in this episode and you would not regret watching it!Vond je deze recentie nuttig?
Doctor Slump Review - ZyKuu
"Two doctors hit rock bottom simultaneously". The story highlights a positive way for parents to help care for their children whom are experiencing depression. This show does a great job at highlighting the importance of one's mental health and how you should treat it seriously. Both Ha-neul and Jeong-woo are high school rivals turned doctors. They both ended up relying on each other to climb out the gutter and eventually develop a relationship that blossoms into a romance. Personally, I was not intrigued with their romantic relationship as I feel like the second couple in lead stole the show. Hong-ran and Dae-young had a unique relationship that was heartwarming to watch. Overall I enjoyed the comedy aspects more than the romance. Ha-neul's family was entertaining and the star of the show for me was Ba-da. Ha-neul's younger brother Ba-da was funny in many ways and always lightened up the mood whenever he was on screen. Ha-neul's mother and uncle were both supportive and loving through every step of the way. The OST was great, and I believe that this show could have been reduced in episodes. Overall, this was a good watch and I would recommend this to anyone who is facing mental health issues as I believe it would guide you in the right direction while entertaining you.Vond je deze recentie nuttig?
Our Beloved Summer Review - ZyKuu
"A documentary that reunites two exes". The story was special in it's angled approach, I loved the actors, it was one of the most balanced and talented casts I've seen and I enjoyed everyone's role. Both main leads Choi-ung and Yeon-su were perfect and had great chemistry. I loved their personalities as individuals and relationship dynamic. The second and third couples were interesting in their own regard as they had different dynamics. One critique I have revolves around the relationship between Ji-ung and his mother, as the unexplained animosity did not make sense to me. Besides that, I admired the relationship Choi-ung had with his parents along with Yeon-su and her grandma. The show is funny and excels in the romance department. Overall the acting was superb and the OST was nice. I took my time watching this series and one thing I know for sure is that this show will go down as a classic.Vond je deze recentie nuttig?

Summer Strike Review - ZyKuu
"A small village filled with special people". The story made life feel relatable and taught valuable life lessons along with it. This drama was very entertaining and unpredictable at times. The show successfully incorporated different genres like romance, mystery, and melodrama. The cast was spectacular as I feel that majority of the characters nailed their roles. The main leads Yeo-reum and Dae-bum were a special pairing. Their chemistry was innocent and gentle. Ji-young and Sung-min had an entertaining dynamic, and it felt wholesome to see their bond get stronger over time. The sidecast had a couple standout performances like Geun-ho, Geun-ho's mother, and Bom's father. Bom's father in particular broke me not only once, but twice. I appreciated Bom's family dynamic because it displayed a realistic situation that exists in many households today, thus making a connection with the viewers. The OST is beautiful, it perfectly suited the theme and environment of the show. This show inspires me to live in a village and experience life through a different lense. There was a calming peace in watching the people of Angok go about their daily lives. All in all, this was an amazing show that I recommend everyone to give a try!Vond je deze recentie nuttig?
Move to Heaven Review - ZyKuu
"A service provided by a man and his autistic son". This drama was very powerful! The story was very intriguing as majority of the episodes focused on the stories of the deceased and what led them to their demise. Each episode did it's part in revealing some lore upon our main characters and managed to connect everything together by the end. The cast was the standout for me as I believed that the three main leads nailed their roles. Geu-ru played his role perfectly as he had to become a 20 year old with a developmental condition. Hopefully his role brings the viewers to understand the reality of people who may share the same disorder as Geu-ru. Na-mu is the neighbour everyone would love to have. She is very loving and caring for Geu-ru and worries for him as if he is family. Speaking of family, Sang-gu is the uncle of Geu-ru and he is my favourite character in this drama. To witness his character development from the first to last episode was special. You could tell that as he spent more time with his nephew he grew a fond love for him. There was no OST, but the genre of music used in this drama was classical, and the scenes in which they played the pieces eloquently matched the tone of the moment. This show delivers a unique storyline and contains a stellar cast, which in combination creates an impactful drama everyone should experience.Vond je deze recentie nuttig?
Business Proposal Review - ZyKuu
"A blind date that turns into a double life". I loved this series, every episode is entertaining and light hearted. The story is pretty basic with no depth, but it is easy to follow and I loved the realism portrayed in the story. The cast was perfect, I believe that they carried the show even when the plot wasn't that strong. I found no weakness in any of the cast members as I believe everyone aced their roles. The show has a magnificent blueprint for any romantic comedies to follow. I loved the main lead Ha-ri, she is beautiful! Young-seo was a charismatic character that had her personal issues but she always made the right decision for her future. Tae-moo and Sung-hoon had a brotherly relationship that was wholesome to watch. Both romances displayed were unique and brought a different atmosphere to screen. Ha-ri's family and coworkers were perfect complimentary pieces to put around Ha-ri. Not only did they deliver in their roles but they enhanced the viewing experience, especially in the comedic department. Other than the cast, the OST is magical. Overall, I believe that this drama is a picture perfect romantic comedy, and I recommend this to anyone who loves these genres!Vond je deze recentie nuttig?
Bloodhounds Review - ZyKuu
"A brotherhood between two boxers". This drama outlines two marines that fight side by side to take on the loan sharks at Smile Capital. The story was easy to follow and lacked any plot holes, although it did feel as if some points of the plot were fast forwarded. The fighting scenes were choreographed very well, and the episodes did a wonderful job at ending right at the climax, wanting you to jump right into the next episode.I enjoyed the bond and unity that Gun-woo and Woo-jin shared, even when faced with adversity they always fought together until the very end. The side cast was cool, my favourite being member being Mr. Choi. One nitpick would be the character development, I felt as if the characters from the beginning did not really change in the end. The OST is nonexistent. Overall a good watch, I would recommend this as a great introductory series to anyone who enjoys action.Vond je deze recentie nuttig?
Twenty-Five Twenty-One Review - ZyKuu
"A journey about a girl and her fencing career". The story was well written and accurately depicted the tragedies that the world suffered between 1998 and 2001. Through the lives of the cast, we were able to gain knowledge upon the realities that people may have experiencing during these hard times. This drama was excellent at creating emotional moments as there were a couple touching scenes that brought tears to my eyes. The main lead Hee-do did a great job in her role. Yi-jin played his given role to a tee. The romance between Hee-do and Yi-jin was initially endearing but then later on becomes complicated, demonstrating the harsh realities couples may face. The sidecast was the standout for me. Ji-Woong was the comedic relief of the drama. I enjoyed the dynamic Yu-rim and her family had. I found the relationship between Ji-Woong and Seung-wan heartwarming and innocent. Seung-wan was a character that I did not expect to grow on me as much as she did, but her actions led me to admire her. The OST was amazing! Unfortunately, the ending of the drama was underwhelming. Overall this is a great introduction drama that I recommend for new viewers.Vond je deze recentie nuttig?

Queen of Tears Review - ZyKuu
"A marital crisis that rekindles love". This show does start off slow, so you will need to be patient. The story contains many plot twists that are unpredictable but there are moments where the plot seems overplayed. Luckily, both leads Hae-in and Hyun-woo demonstrated stellar chemistry and their acting ability carried the show at times. There were many scenes where the two were emotional towards each other and you could feel the intensity as a viewer. Their acting was so powerful that I became teary eyed at times. Eun-seong was one of the greatest villains I ever witnessed in my short watch of K-dramas as I genuinely hated his character throughout the series. The side cast was amazing and the OST was perfectly selected to fit the mood and genre of this series. The romance was executed perfectly and the scenes in Germany were beautifully captured. This show makes me look forward to getting married one day!Vond je deze recentie nuttig?
Twinkling Watermelon Review - ZyKuu
"A CODA who uncovers a dark past". Perfection. The plot was unique and unpredictable. I loved the origin story between Yi-chan and Chung-ah. Watching how their first interaction blossoms into a romance is heartwarming. The relationship between Eun-gyeol and On Eun-yoo is entertaining, and their chemistry was on point. There were two character relations that stood out to me. One being between Eun-gyeol and Chung-ah, they shared many scenes that were impactful but there was one powerful scene in particular that brought me to tears. The second being between Yi-chan and his grandmother who had such a loveable relationship, and there was one scene specifically that had me crying. Chung-ah was undoubtedly my favourite character in the show as she was absolutely flawless and played her role perfectly! The OST was diverse and delivered a retro vibe that fit the theme of the show which made it astounding. This show has even sparked my curiosity to learn sign language! Beautiful show nonetheless.Vond je deze recentie nuttig?
Lovely Runner Review - ZyKuu
"A relationship that defies time". Masterpiece. Story is excellent and there is a unique display in regards to the concept of time travelling. Whether it was a heartwarming or saddening moment, I shed a couple tears as this series drew out a variety of emotions from within. Im Sol and Sun-jae perfectly played their roles, I loved the relationship and chemistry both leads had. The supporting cast was phenomenal especially Tae-sung and In-hyuk. The soundtrack is incredible. The romance and comedy in this series was nothing short of perfection. Not only did this work of art entertain me, but it gave me hope, and I am genuinely sad that it is over :(Vond je deze recentie nuttig?
