The Heirs Review
Korean Cinderella.It's like Boys Over Flowers 2.0-you got that 1 poor girl surrounded by many, many rich people in a school exclusive for the rich. (And Lee Min Ho)
Has a notable cast. When I watch a drama, I usually only find 2-4 people interesting but here I even found the main casts' parents interesting. Woo Bin was a fresh second lead.
"Love Is The Moment" and Lee Hong Ki's "I'm Saying" were nice OSTs.
『 Why I liked it: Park Shin Hye / second lead syndrome / strong cast 』

Heartstrings Review
It's like a Korean Highschool Musical. Generally lighthearted musical-ish drama.The music was good, but I wish they played more pieces. The drama was initially about modern vs traditional music, then it became a "love square" as they practiced for the musical. Few standout characters... Aside from the love square, only Min Hyuk and Yoon Hye stood out to me. I feel like Hyun Jin should have been utilised more.
These are my preferences but for the story/plot, I wish they emphasized more on the modern vs traditional music topic, and had more musical moments. Also, it felt like Yong Hwa falling in love with Shin Hye was too sudden, and the ending (developments after the musical) felt rushed.
I'd rewatch only for the singing/musical scenes.
『 Why I liked it: light tone / Park Shin Hye / good music 』

You're Beautiful Review
Fun, lighthearted drama. The comedy might be outdated as it was originally televised more than 10 years ago from today, but it's still easy to enjoy. Episodes 1-5 were super cringey/funny for me during rewatch, it was only around episode 5 or 6 when I started taking things seriously.The story involves some K-Pop culture references, so it may add to your enjoyment if you're into those things. The main cast is loveable-it's amusing to see their interactions/dynamics, and they're easy to remember. Shin Hye was so adorable and Yong Hwa as second lead was just perfect.
The soundtrack is really good and catchy. The fact that most of the songs were sang by the actors themselves makes you feel like they really are a boyband.
『 Why I liked it: light tone / Park Shin Hye / charismatic cast / good music 』
