I don’t know who any of the actors are, I’ve never seen any of them before because I don’t generally watch kdramas, more Taiwanese. No one was awful, and the leads were cute together.
The romance was cute, cliched but I’m not going to complain about that! 12 mini eps is not the time for something too complicated.
I liked the concept; the music wasn’t overwhelming memorable (and lyrics never stand up well in translation); acting wasn’t noticeably terrible so overall I enjoyed, would watch again but maybe not for a while.

This is the first web drama I watch and it was by accident since I've opted to not look at how many episodes are in a "season" since I don't want to be waiting and thinking "it's almost over how will this resolve itself " or "but they haven't even kissed yet" hihi etc With that being said I really enjoyed it. The leads did well together and they were a cute little couple that I was rooting for and the antagonist ugh yeah I hated her right until the very end
I loved how it all started because she had to poo and there were no bathrooms available! I did feel bad for Ga on cause of the electricity he couldn't do much by himself and touching anything would bring him shock and hurt him. I loved the cute little moments they had since they had to be "charging" all the time I especially love when Ga on held ha Neul's hand in the car while driving to help her over come her fear and when she was writing the lyrics when he put his hand on her back.
Also how everything is connected at the end I'm like what? *tear they both lonely and alone and just have each other so I need a wedding!!!
I would watch this again whenever I needed a feel-good dose though I do think with a little more time this could have been a cute drama and we could have gotten a kiss?? which there was one by the way or any hugs.. end of my little rant

Spark was a cute little watch. You know exactly what you're getting going into. A short, cliche feel good drama. It's not great but it's not bad. The acting isn't great but it isn't bad. Overall, it's just a short watch to put you in a good mood and deliver some fluff. I couldn't really ask more of a show that's 12 15-minute episodes. The biggest failing for me honestly was the whole bit in the first episode about Ha Neul pooping in the bushes. I get that digestive humor is a big part of Korean humor but dear god am I sick of it. I mostly just find it annoying and I'm hoping this weird bit of humor starts to fade out.
I also think the ending and character motives could have been a little more clear. Especially with two specific characters though I won't go into more detail to avoid spoilers. I know it's hard with a drama that's so short but some actions by character's were definitely completely out of left field. There was absolutely no set up for things they did.
Like I said, I can't complain too much. I knew exactly what I was getting into and it was exactly what I wanted from it. A cute little rom com that I could finish in a couple hours.

Low Spark ⭐ Lite Static °6.4° °Good° Tween Alert❕
When You Wish Upon a Star ✨ it can cause quite a JO⚡T.Son Ha Neul (Nam Bo Ra from Lovers in Bloom) works part-time to get by. She's running on fumes, as the show opens. One of her jobs is on the set of a music video. On a much needed break, she's among the trees getting some alone time when Yoon Ga On, the rude, dismissive star (Na In Woo from Marry My Husband-7.5) shows up in the same area. He wants to know if it is she who's been leaking photos to the paparazzi? As she's skulking in the woods, she seems guilty!
Ha Neul begins telling him /what💢not/ when a bright light appears in the sky 🌠. They're both knocked out. The next morning, his hands are shooting off electrical charges whenever he comes close to something that is the least bit electrical. That would include people. He cannot touch nearly anything, it seems. One thing leads to another and he soon learns that she'll negate the charge. In order to get ready for his concert and the new song he wants to write for release at the event, he'll have to keep her with him at all times. Apparently, gloves won't work for this job.
Spark is just like those after school specials that popular in the 1970s. Sometimes this is exactly what tweens and young teens need to see. The romance is simple and sweet; everything works out ~just so~ in the end; best friends remain friends; even the mean-girl is sorry for what she did. There's little drama, virtually no conflict, and the effect is sugary. It will simplify the 🌎 for a short amount of time.
Overall, this is an innocent, conflict-free romance between two simplified human beings. He's the star who is lonely among friends. She's the purehearted girl who feels like home to him. Other characters are her best friend, the manager, and the horrible rival star. The acting is solid. The female lead manages some nice moments. In her many close-ups, she displays expressions that are evidence of above average acting skills. I'm looking forward to seeing more of her.
He's the electricity and she's the ground. Their powers and personalities match perfectly, in more ways than one. She reduces the static in his life. The whole show is low static. This is a short series consisting of 12 episodes, each with an actual running time of around 12 minutes. That's way shorter than Avengers Endgame. It's also short on logic. He should only need to wear gloves to manage his issues, but the viewer has to accept that she's necessary to him. Logical gaps and inconsistencies are near unavoidable in a sci-fi fantasy piece, and the more one can roll with it, the more likely s/he is to enjoy the show. Everybody has their tolerance limit, however. Spark’s illogic relegates it to tween level.
So, for tweens wishing to kill some time, this Spark is a quick recharge.

Cute & lighthearted series
Cute & lighthearted series wastes precious minutes on the band & the evil female singing, but over all was really nice.Unfortunate digestive joke in the beginning had me cringing as my culture does not find any humor in anything poop related. Tropes, but they are on the fluffy side such as people having intersected lives in their past that they didn't realize. Satisfying ending without any expression of affection .
On first viewing I gave it 7/10
it could have been better but it was short & sweet at least & not long & drawn out painfully putting us through the wringer

I'll give this drama a 6/10. And I think it is good enough to recommend.

Molto carino questo mini drama.
Nonostante sia un mini drama davvero corto risulta una storia carina e ben raccontata. Racconta la storia un po' incredibile di due giovanni lui un idol e lei una ragazza tutto. Travolti da una stella cadente si ritroveranno a dover stare insieme per un po' ma scoppia la scintilla e non sarà quella della stella cadente.
Attori bravi ,Na In Woo già promettente da giovanissimo.
Merita sicuramente la visione per una pausa leggera tra un dramma e l'altro.

Mini Drama sympa à regarder...
Story relativement réaliste, se déroulant dans le milieu de l'entertainement, mais très bien servie par d'excellents acteurs.Sur un lieu de tournage, un soir, un idol et une employée sont heurtés par une météorite dont les effets vont bouleverser leurs vies.
J'aurai aimé des passages musicaux plus spectaculaires donc plus convaincants dans un Idol-Drama.
Quelques clichés (triangle amoureux avec une ex, coïncidences "dramaland" diverses dont repentance de dernière minute des "villains") mais le rythme est soutenu, donc on ne s'ennuie pas une minute.

Short , Creative and Sweet Drama
Drama spark ini menurutku drama yang cukup menghibur dengan mengingat durasinya yang sangat pendek. Drama ini menceritakan dua orang yang harus tetap Bersama karena terpaksa mengenai suatu keadaan yaitu karena adanya bunga api dari tubuh cowo sehingga mereka harus skinship dan akhirnya jatuh cinta satu sama lain. Aku senneg banget sih bisa liat Na in Woo di drama ini. Love him much. Menurut aku kalau drama ini durasinya 12 atau 16 episode bakal lebih menarik lagi sih. Semoga one day later ada drama yang mirip dengan durasi episode yang lebih panjang ya. Buat kamu K-Drama Lovers yang ga punya waktu banyak tapi cari drama yang romance dan entertraining di sela waktu kamu. Nonton ini deh it lasting sweet until now. 😊Was this review helpful to you?
