The Village: Achiara's Secret
39 mensen vonden deze beoordeling nuttig
PLOT:” Achiara is a small and peaceful village in the Korean countryside where nobody commits crime ; not other parts of Korea where a mysterious serial killer kills people on “Rainy Wednesday”. That’s what people say to Han Soo Yoon, the new English teacher, when she arrives from Canada. Unfortunately, the shy Soo Yoon discovers a corpse right away! Seeking the truth in Achiara is not simple: everyone has a secret or a reason to hate and threat someone….
One of the many things I really appreciate is the absence of romance/story line: no distractions, no useless moments or stupid parts! Also there aren’t many characters with side stories: dragging level is like 0%.
ACTING: to be honest, at first I didn’t like Moon Geun Young’s acting and way of playing Han Soo Yoon ^^” I thought she was emotionless and below average but, episode after episode, I realized that she probably is the only actress in Korea able to portray this kind of character: shy, scared, with low self-esteem. However I can’t totally say she did a great job; the other actors did WAY better than her
BTOB’s Joung Jae, for example, impressed me in a positive way (also because he’s only 20 years old…) and I read that many Koreans thought he was a professional actor, not an idol. Actresses Jang So Yeon, Shin Eun Gyeong and actor Choi Jae Woong did a wonderful job too
REWATCH VALUE: I wouldn’t rewatch it because I already know who the culprit is but I think this is a series that everyone MUST watch soon or later!

It's the story about 2, very different, sisters who deal with their problems regarding love, family, work and wealth. You can't help but fall in love with Misaki, Hazuki and all the other characters: their acting is simple yet natural which makes you feel like the story is real.

The story is not the most original and it's pretty basic: the cute and smart girl turns ugly growing up while the shy and fat boy becomes sexy and all (and, of course, NOT nice towards the main character).
Some parts were a little bit too silly but they were acceptable (??) even for someone like me (I even laughed out loud at some points!). After the 10th episode, however, the drama became less funny and this is the only flaw I can say about this show.
One thing I didn't like is that they never explained why and HOW Kim Hye Jin turns """""ugly"""" (c'mon, even with messy hair Hwang Jung Eum is NOT ugly! Nice try PD-nim!) and goofy but that's what makes this drama special: it's crazy.
I think all the actors had great chemistry with each other but I supported Kim Hye Jin/Ji Sung Joon couple more than the Kim Hye Jin/Kim Shin Hyeok one. It was my first time seeing Park Seo Joon acting and I think he was REALLY good: I fall in love with him XD I hope to see him in more serious roles...
It was also my 1st time seeing Hwang Jung Eum acting and I think she's a great woman and actress; I hope to see her more as well!
Last but not least: Choi Siwon (aka The Living Derp)! How is possible to NOT love him and his character, Kim Shin Hyeok?! Believe me, this guy is unique!
The OST is really cute and relaxing! Can't wait to have the full collection of the songs!

The story is simple: a creepy killer, Toremi, mocks the police and kills people in a creepy way (with mortar). Detective Toko Kisaragi, a young and shy girl, becomes Toremi's negotiator but why? What does her deceased father, once a detective too, have in common with this case and Toremi?
The actors do a great job with all the characters and the OST is awesome too!

The story is nothing special and I'm sure this drama won't make history. But if you want to watch a funny and simple drama this is one of the best canditates.
It was my first drama with IU and I was surprised in a good way.

I think this drama is the perfect mix of hilarious (the elevator scene is EPIC), romantic and thrilling elements. The acting are good: Park Yoo Chun is one of the few idol whose acting skills improve drama by drama. His chemistry with Han Ji Min is excellent.
A special mention goes also to the OST, in particular to the songs "Happy Ending" by Jay Park and "Hurt" by Ali.

She will try to save Sae Byul and catch the killer with the help of Ki Dong Chan, a private inspector.
I really enjoyed this drama: interesting plot, great acting and thrilling atmosphere! Lee Bo Young is really good while crying and playing an anxious yet determinated mother.
In my opinion I won't rewatch it because I'd alreay know who the killer is and why XD
