A goblin, grip reaper, fox, alien, vampire, and now a demon!
It's like collecting Pokemon, and now there's another piece that fits into the puzzle.If you looking for something incredibly new and mindblowing, then this is NOT it; if you looking for something light-hearted that has beautiful visuals, comedy, and romance, and to just pass the time ~ this is it!
The story takes the typical cliche and mixes it to make something unique using;
- A female CEO who is rich and strong ✅
- A demon who becomes a bodyguard ✅
- A contract marriage of convenience✅
- A murder mystery surrounding a chaebol conflict ✅
- Past life lovers (?)✅
The humor and the chemistry are captivating in many scenes; the love between the leads can be felt through their eyes and actions. The annoying and creepy characters (especially the family of the FL) keep you on your toes. And some of the characters (cough second FL & ML) make your blood boil.
The story was consistent in delivering and keeping up with the pacings, chemistry, and romance through! Honestly, give it a shot and it will have you hooked on the first episode!

An unexpected collaboration!
This was not something I was expecting to watch, but it was cute. I like the collaboration between the two actors; the bromance was very sweet and heart-warming.They were many funny moments that make me laugh (especially, the part where Lee Seung Gi was setting up the tent and Min-ho was just watching lol). You can tell that Lee Seung Gi and Lee min Ho are good friends. Also, Lee Seung Gi is such a good singer! I enjoyed watching him sing in a comfortable as well as peaceful setting.
In simple terms, it's a short-film-like collaboration that leaves you with a comfortable yet relaxing moment as you watch the two talk, chat, and joke with one another.
I hope to see more of these two doing more collaboration in the future. There were a total of four-episode, but it felt too short!

Trash.
The plot can be descried in one word; trash. No matter how good the acting is, it cannot make up for the terrible plot.The plot was not unique; it was the same classical boys over a girl but adding an love app to the mix. The reason this plot was supper disappointed was because of the main character Jo-Jo who was so-so throughout the series. She could not decide on what she wanted until the end. Furthermore, she had to rely on an app to decide how she felt... Like seriously? How could you not know YOUR FEELINGS? Also, how could she not figure them out even after 5+ years? She doesn't need love, she needs serious therapy.
One thing that annoyed me to the end was that she was never able to give Sun-Oh a proper reason as to why she did not want to be with him anymore. Also, poor Sun-Oh was rejected until every end and he wasn't even able to get over his feelings. The writers just make him end up with someone without even giving him proper closure with his ex.
Jojo can be described as a coward throughout the series as she just running away from her feelings. I honestly don't feel any pity or relate to her. Throughout the plot, she was going back on forth between her feelings as if she deciding between chocolate and vanilla. She ruined the boy's friendship and the worst part is she always plays the victim.
The least she would've done was have some character development, but she didn't. She doesn't grow up even as an adult. She runs away from her problems like she always does. She remains selfish and a self-centered bxxx to the end.
I wouldn't recommend this, but if you want to waste time, go ahead! This series is just about a girl who's going back and forth as she is too much of a baby to figure out what she wants as a teenager or an adult.

Love, rest, and heal : A path to overcoming Depression
This drama blends comedy, romance, and mental health issues to give a masterpiece; It also shows the importance of taking care of yourself and your mental health, which is a much-needed message that everyone needs to hear.The beginning was slow, however, the drama quickly began to quick up in the following episodes; the story is interesting, and you see yourself watching in anticipation of what's going to happen in the following episodes.
- Plot: So far, the plot is set up nicely and as the episodes progress, you can see the character's growth as well as the slow healing process. The past and the presence flashbacks scenes are well down and do not become annoying, instead are a delightful watch.
Also, I liked that both characters were going through something that they helped one another heal and grow; instead of one lead following around the other "to help them" both of the leads were actively trying to help one another and saw each other at their lowest as they healed together.
The genre of comedy and romance are well balanced along with addressing important mental health issues like healing through depression. I know I will be going back and rewatching this drama in the future.
- Acting: This drama is Park Shin-Hye's return to the screen and she's doing an amazing job acting alongside Hyung Sik. They pulled off those high school outfits and did not look as if they aged since they saw each other 11 years ago!
Also, the kissing scene has not come back yet, but they have done such a good job at acting, I wouldn't mind if the kissing scenes were awful.
- Music: The music gives very nostalgic feelings and adds warmth to the drama, instead of taking away from it. Sometimes, we see the music taking over the drama and distracting us from watching, but in this drama, the music did not do that, instead added to it.
Overall, this drama is a light-hearted watch with important themes regarding mental health. Watching them grow and heal, truly does heal something within you as well. So, make sure to watch it because you end up loving it! (so obsessed!!)

If you looking for something will thrilling plot or something that has a drama or plot, these drama is NOT it.BUT, if your looking for something to watch causally, just to laugh, enjoy, and have a good time, then don't look any further!
I don't usally watch these chinese drama, but I have to say these these become into my top tens! GIVE IT A CHANCE, YOU WON'T REGRET IT I PROMISE!!
These drama is a GEM. The romance between then is the cutest I seen; it explores the main characters personality, background, and just how to came together and support each other! Both of the character have depth and FINALLY A FEMALE LEAD THAT KNOWS HOW TO STAND UP FOR THE MALE LEAD!! LIKE YASSS QUEEN!!
The actors did a great job and I become a fan! There acting was so good, it make me think if they are lowkey a couple in real life because how can you be these cute!!!
My favoriate song was "Forever Star" in the drama and it's very catchy! The other songs, I don't remember much of, but they were decent.
Overally, I would go back to it just to watch for comfort and the romance <3 10/10.

Fun but NOT complete
A good way to waste time, without realizing your wasting time. Yes, it's that fun to watch. There are a lot of funny moments and the bromance is spot on and it makes you cheer for the family.However, there could have been thinks that were done better. For example, it took way to long for both of the main characters to realize that they were both from the past (around episode 13 or 14). The ending also feel rushed and we didn't get to see a lot of time in the future. It would have been better to see how Yi Chan and Ah Chung went through and not just the main characters coming back to the future, and boom everything is fine and they are rich(?).
One thing that really bothered me is how they protrayed Yi Chan as deaf. Just because he is DEAF, does NOT MEAN he CAN'T SPEAK! Especially since he was not born deaf. I have a deaf friend, that can read lips and speak fine. So, it was annoying to see that being glossed over.
Reccommendated if you want to see something light-hearted with, just a bit of a plot and not just fluffyness. The acting was good. Ah Chung, really made an impact and how she expressed her self through her eyes!.
The female character (from the future) was annoying because she kept trying to mess things up for Eun Gyeol unintentionally. Also, the solution she had to solve her problem was so stupid. She cannot live her life for her mom, so how is finding her first love and setting her up going to do anything...?
Overally, recommend for something light-heart. It's NOT perfect, but it a good watch.

Healing Revenge : Marry My Huband leaves you craving for more.
This drama is not just about returning to the past and getting revenge on those who wronged you, instead, it combines healing yourself, finding yourself, and romance alongside with revenge.While watching this drama, you will not find yourself bored, instead watching with anticipation of what's going to happen because it gives you QUALITY with literally everything! ~ the dialogues, the makeover, the romance, revenge, and healing!
This drama uses a classic revenge plot, everything has been done before, yet it is done in a manner where that does not feel annoying or repetitive, you can expect to see common things like:
- FL & ML who goes back to the past ✅
- Fl gets revenge on the people who were close to her ✅
- truly shameless ex-boyfriend and best friend ✅
- Rich Ml who has loved the FL for a long time✅
- Acting: The actors did an amazing job of portraying the characters so that you can feel their emotions; the shameless boyfriend and ex-best friend will make your blood boil and want to scratch their eyes out... I want to go inside the screen and slap both of them. They made me so mad!! (╯°□°)╯︵ ┻━┻ )
p.s: The best acting reward goes to: THE CUTEST ORANGE CAT! (so adorable!!)
- Plot: Although nothing about the plot is new and the themes are common, the drama does a good job of making its twists and turns to keep the watchers engaged. The revenge is so satisfying and the romance between the leads grows as well as their character development. FL slowly and steadily became strong with the male leads' support to get revenge and get back at them.
- Music: Honestly, I do not remember a single song they used as it blended into the background a little too well, and it was not overall impactful. However, there were these scenes where they used BTS songs for a big moment! And it was very unique and cute!!
At this point, if you haven't watched it, I going to come to kidnap you and make you watch! So give it a chance ^^

A hidden gem : Robin Hood with a Twist
I went into this drama with no expectations, however, I quickly realized why it is so famous in Korea: These dramas incorporate comedy and mystery, however the most impactful of them all was romance, which wasn't even enlisted as a main genre.The drama is so good, with each episode it just keeps getting better and better:
- Plot: I felt like the female lead would be shadowed by the male lead, however, this drama proved me wrong!
The female lead is a total badass, helping people like Robin Hood. Matter of fact, the twists and turns that it has will keep you watching! Also, omg the chemistry between the leads was AMAZING! Why is it always the non-romance drama that makes such a strong impression?! I'm shocked this is not listed as romance as that's how good it was.
The drama was also very educational as it brought light to the heartbreaking ways that women were treated throughout history, especially widows. And I liked that despite those harsh conditions, the female leads were still able to become strong and fight to make the world a better place.
- Actings: I do not know who these actors were, but honestly, these dramas make me fall in love with all of them (especially the female lead and male leads).
Both leads did a good job of portraying their characters and were not overshadowed by one another. The age gap did not bother me at all. Also, the way they were looking at each other with their eyes?! Got me feeling butterflies and they hadn't even kissed.
The other actors also did a great job at portraying the characters, and I was not expecting the villain to be who he was?! The way the mother-in-law treated her made me so mad!
The pacing, chemistry, the plot keep you at your edge, and with each episode, the drama keeps getting better and better. Truly a hidden gem that deserves a lot more recognition. So honestly, go ahead and give it a watch!!

FELL IN LOVE WITH THE VILLIAN... NOT THE DRAMA!
I went in with no expectations, but that was a slap in the face.Sadly to say I only enjoy the first two episode and it just went downhill. The plot is all over the place and pacing is not good. Compared to the orginlal, it's like a ant in the sand.
Honestly, the only thing that makes me wanna keep watching is the villian. He so hot and OMG HIS SMIRK! it makes you root for him and it got me feeling things. UGH, I fangirling so hard. I am obessed with him, instead of the drama. Well, you could say he IS the drama and th plot. I become a big fan of the actor and hope he gets more lead roles.
Also, not to mention how the main lead has no depth or background, hoenstly he just seem like a background character. And the female lead has more chemistry with the villian AND he actually has a actually background and reasoning to do thing. What do we know about the main lead..?? Like nothing LMFAO.
Honestly, these such a lose! It could have been an amazing enemies to lover as the chemistry is between the female lead and villian is SO good. I really trying hard not to compare with the orginial but the romance is SO BAD! it just come out of nowhere between the leads. Like no confession, but they are kissing?
The face that romance is bad gets to me, because the orginial is famous for the ROMANCE. How do you have a sequel but the romance between the male lead is like a dog and a frog trying to kiss?
I'm sorry but I'm not sorry. These series is a MISS, it had suck because it has so much potential. Maybe, the writers could still save it by turning it into a dark romance and shocking us all.
