Aladdin
It is boring, but...
Q: What is this drama about?A: Toxic relationship
Q: Is it boring?
A: Yes, the first half of drama only: episode 1-9. This is actually a 16 episode drama, not 32 as written on MDL.
Pros:
- Apink's Naeun. She is my first motivation to start watching this drama lol.
- Seo Jihye. She is my motivation to finish the drama. In short, her 'Seo Dan' brought me to the end of the episode.
- The drama's conflicts are really happening in real life. I had(ve) a friend who resembles Jung Hyuk much. I even got blocked in SNS by him since he thought I would take away his crush. Lol, it's only his crush, not his girlfriend (yet). They didn't even end up dating since his crush actually already had a boyfriend! The most dramatic story I've ever had in my life.
- The antagonists really heat you up. It means the story is actually really good.
- This drama is light, it doesn't require a smart brain to solve the conflict puzzle.
- It is safe, no bed scenes (lol).
Cons:
- Less comedy
- The main OST is too bright (pop-ish) sometimes just doesn't sound good
- Stay strong! You have to reach episode 11 to get the feel of this drama
- Tbh, I didn't feel the good chemistry between the lead characters
- Awkward romance
- The doctor's acting is questionable lol, I hated this. It was supposed to be a sad atmosphere but the doctors ruined everything.
- Family conflicts are not shown properly. Mostly, they are shown by throwbacks. We need more stories about the lead character's family.

Who Are You: School 2015

Okay, submit review......... oh God, it has to be a 500 character review!
Well, at that time I didn't really like what I watched, before Go Eun Byul's school settings appeared. It reminds me about high school life and its funny things like get a rid with friends and stuff. So, I love this drama because it brings school things and... romance, of course.

Hmm.
Motivation to watch: Park Min-young.Suggestions for you:
1. Only watch it if you are a big fan of one of the main leads.
2. If you are a fan of Meteorology, Climatology, and Geophysical Agency.
Summary:
1. The side stories are better than the main story.
2. The side romance is also better than the main lead's romance.
3. The broken side of the romance is not heart-breaking.
4. The touching part of the main story is not touching, yet the side story is still interesting.

Second leads carry the entire plot
I said that Kingdom and Happiness are the best zombie drama. I will say All of Us Are Dead is the best zombie drama too but in a school drama genre.Additional WARNING that Netflix doesn't tell you:
- It contains sexual graphics (a naked girl shot from behind) in one of the episodes.
I think I should write this in case you are looking for information about whether it's safe to watch it with family <3
Pros:
- Cho Yi Hyun is badass af. She carried the whole drama. Been a fan since she's in Hospital Playlist <3
- School-themed drama. So, the origin of the zombies can seamlessly be explained with scientific theories.
- Creative conflict problem solutions that the watchers don't expect
- Good amount of teen romance stuff
- Not too much comedy but it naturally is there.
- Pretty solid plot. Each episode will make you stay awake and aware. The atmosphere is so intense.
- Realistic dilemma choices faced by the students in the conflicts.
- Zombie species is developed well. You won't find this development in any drama before.
-
Cons:
- Some plot holes are there (like why this student faces this kind of problem etc are not explained) but somehow the entire plot can bury those.
- Main leads failed to lead the show. I don't know if this is a good or bad thing. But I gratitude they failed. Choi Namra is a hard carry in this drama! <3
- Production team forgot to explain the details of how to kill the zombies like killing titans in Attack on Titan where everyone must slice the titans' neck. In this drama, sometimes, the zombies die by getting stabbed on the body, getting sliced on their neck, getting shot on their head, etc randomly. The explanation I remember is that they will die when the "host" body is destroyed. But, their "host" body isn't destroyed until the near end of the drama. So, those high schoolers actually didn't kill the zombies and just stunned them?
- Unnecessary sexual violence scene (a naked girl that has been bullied).
- There is no epic music :(
- Shibal, there is too much cursing. It's much better if you don't understand Korean lang.
- We need to wait for the next season to see how the plot ends.
- The writer is obviously forcing them to get trapped in the school lmao.
Extra:
Why majority of watchers love Namra more than On Jo? I think it's because Namra's role is the key to their survival while On Jo is always crying all the time and seems cannot live without people around her. So, I hope the writer does justice for the main leads.

If you’re hesitate whether watch or not watch the season 2
YES. WATCH IT!One aspect that makes Hospital Playlist the best music-related/slice of life/medical k-drama?
The best in music-related drama: Besides its interesting topic: medical drama, it has what other dramas don’t: THE REAL MUSIC PERFORMANCE. The actors/actresses really play those instruments after countless days of practice. IT IS NOT EVEN A MUSIC-FOCUSED DRAMA. Mention me a music-focused drama, I'm pretty sure it isn't better than this drama in terms of real musical performance.
The best in slice of life drama: Everything looks so natural that it feels like we are watching real-life scenery. The romance aspects don't make me cringe.
The best in medical drama: As you know, Hospital Playlist is a nearly-perfectly-researched medical drama. Real doctors have been involved in writing the story and you can know it by watching doctors' reactions to this drama on YouTube.
Pros (I wrote only what season 1 doesn't have):
- Unlike its 1st season, the romance aspect of this season is much stronger.
- The comedy-among-friends are still there and are not going weaker.
- Amazing side-characters development, like Gyeoul and her family, Chuchu and hers, Jaehak and his, and many more. But, Jung Rosa-nim is my favorite!
- Characters' consistency! i.e Songhwa is still being Songhwa in this season xD
Cons:
- Unlike the 1st season that had no plot hole, there’s a notable plot hole in this season. It doesn’t affect the whole plot, but it indeed gives a big minus point.
- Plot cutting. I think the plots aren't over. There are still ongoing plots that must be done. Sooooo, I hope there will be season 3.

THE BEST "PLOT TWIST IN THE PLOT TWIST IN THE PLOT TWIST IN THE..." DRAMA
PROS:- Endless plot twists until the very end of the drama. A plot twist in the plot twist in the plot twist in the...
- Brave writer(s). No other writers could easily kill (important) characters in the early episodes.
- All characters have the same position. Even main leads are not that standing out.
- Super-ultra-satisfying duration. Yeah, it's 1.5 hours an episode because the story is pretty long.
- Touching anti-climax. My hearteu couldn't accept the death of kind people in the drama...
- Solid plots. There are no duration-eating sad or romance scenes.
- No overwhelming romance stuff. There's a little aspect in it, but it doesn't lead the drama to the romance genre. It stays focused on the mystery/crime/thriller genre. Still, you can ship some characters in here xD
- The whole plot can change your heart. Like, you used to hate a character, but in the end, you would love that character.
CONS:
- TAKE A NOTE! There are a thousand names you HAVE TO remember. If you can't remember it properly, you will lose the plot. I regret I didn't take a note and I have to struggle to figure out what's happening and who's who.
- It forces you to binge-watch the drama, else you would forget about what has happened in the drama.

They should add more conflicts and plot
This drama should have a long story if they make it solid. It's 20 episodes with 1 hour-long per episode. That should be more than enough to extend the plot.Unfortunately, they put too much romance scenes and waste the time on it. I hate it when it's actually not necessary but they keep putting it. But, it's not that bad since the "overloaded" romance scenes suit the drama well --> Because of 'love' and wanna monopolize it, they dare to fight with their brothers and spilling the blood for a throne.
It's history-based drama and worth to watch to help you understand a little bit of history of Korea in the Goryeo era.

To be honest, I'm confused what story does it show. So, the plot is confusing. Who are protagonist, who are antagonists. What goals do they have? It's so much about politics and people who are not interested in politics would not understand what the drama tells. Besides, it's still can be enjoyed since it's like "Mission Impossible" movie. Some people might watched this drama because Yoona's charm, but.... yeah, I'm agree. Yoona apparently so cute. Haha.

What I love most is, Kang Ha Ram (female protagonist) was so cute. It reminds me of Werewolf Boy's Park Bo Young and Kim So Hyun, 2 my favorite actresses. Second, I love how Black (444) got into actions. He kept doing cool, aimed to achieve his missions even Kang Ha Ram was in danger. So, I would like to name him a cool emotionless man... my favorite character.
So, I would highly recommend you to rewatch this drama after days.
Here is my score:
Storyline and concept: +5
Complicated plot: +0.5
Bad ending: -1 (I think even after I rewatch it, I will still wondering why Black can meet Ha Ram again after his punishment--regardless it's happy or sad ending)
Some can not be understood scenes: -1
Ha Ram's cuteness and Black's coolness: +2
Must rewatch drama: +1
Unpredictable plot: +0.5
Not too many kisses (I like it): +0.5
Total: 9.5

Its humor scenes made me laugh +1
Lee Jong Sook is an actor that I know, he acted well +1
Some 'not romance' scenes were touching. +1
Kim So Hyun as a guest role +0.5
Total: 8.5
---
If it was not the good story, I would not watch this drama. I don't like how the men are crying. It was too much. So, I'd rather to watch Woo Tae's acts rather than Jong Sook's (blame the director for this lol). I think, So Hyun's acts are far better than Suzy. So, as a woman protagonist, should be a better actress than Suzy to play in this high tense drama.

I like the story: +3 (it's perfect score; 1 means I hate it, 2 means neither I like it, 3 I love it)
The fact that this drama will reveal its antagonist in the 1st episode did surprise me a lot. I think it's the only drama did like that. I thought the drama will be boring, since the antagonist have been revealed so early. But, the drama did well. It makes me curious about how the protagonist survive from antagonist's curse since polices and law could not catch him and his evil plan about doing revenge.
I like the cast: +1 +1 (every protagonist has max score: 2)
That "one" is for Kim So Hyun because she is my only favorite korean actress and I can only give "one" from two because she was not the main role. And "one" for Jongsuk. I don't really like him, but since I have watched so many Jongsuk drama, I did not feel strange when I watched the protagonist as the main role. So, I could enjoy the drama.
The drama has humor: +1
I laughed a lot. I love it.
The drama was touching: +1
If I were a girl, I would have cried when Do Yeon found her father was a no-guilty prisoner.
Moral/education value: +1 (If the drama did not have it, I would not give value)
This drama taught me (makes me realize) that humans always hide their lies to keep their relationship with family and friends connected. I learned something called "Law" a lot.
Plot Twist: +0.5
I thought polices would not come to save Jongsuk. But, the sniper team did well to stop the antagonist's (Min Joon Kook) evil act.
.
Total:
3+1+1+1+1+1+0.5
= 8.5
P.s. Sorry, you read my bad English.

This drama is controversial. You know, before you make a history-based story/script, you should learn the real history first. Then, when you put it to your story, you HAVE TO put that history-line to your story as it is. You should NOT falsely rewrite the history onto your script. If you don't know the truth or what the world know about that history, then DON'T write it. It makes controversy, makes many people mad, and people will unite to prosecute the actors, actress, director, writer, etc.
It's just same as this drama. On 13th episode, there are lines tell you about one of most believed religions in the world, Islam. I bet, the writer has not done the research about Fatima, Muhammad, Islam, and the history of Granada itself. Once again I tell you, reader. If it has to do with, race, religion, ethnic, history, and so on, you can not take it a joke. Don't even rewrite their history falsely. If you want to create novel, script, or anything that has to do with them, then you HAVE TO research it, do interview with scientist, professor, etc., and make sure yours is legit enough to be published. If you CAN'T, then just find another theme, genre, or whatever it's called. I feel sorry for Park Shin Hye who had to do the lines. I hope people/netizens out there don't blame her. It's the writer's fault.

The best tragic romance-fantasy ever!
A phrase to describe:Wanna feel a bittersweet broken heart? Watch this drama!
Cons:
- There are terms in Korean that don’t have explanations: Gwanju, Gwigu, etc.
- Places’s (or town) name make you wonder: Is this the name of a clan, a town, or what?
- The story is complicated since the beginning, you might need to rewatch the first episode.
Pros:
- A fresh sageuk-fantasy story with a superwoman as the main character.
- Good proportion of romance, not too much and not too little.
- Well-served comedy.
- Jung Somin, Jang Nara, Arin, and Seohee goddess combos.
- Puzzle-like plot (almost) without a plot hole.
- Tragic story. Hail to the writer for writing such brave plot.
