I have enjoyed every episode of FantastiC. I laughed our loud at those Acting attempts scenes as well as felt the emotions. My Blood Boiled after watching Baek Sul's situation.
Main elements of the story are cliche Still story and characters are quite refreshing.
Story looks Cheery and funny and light-heart but it all signifies the emotional scenes more.
It is JTBC drama. So 1 more reason to watch it. This is how you properly do the cliches.
Music is light and sooth and not too loud. Actors are doing good job. So TRY IT.
This is one Strong and Accurate Article. These kinds of things attract and New viewers and force the avid viewers of years to stop watching Kdramas. All in all business remains intact and even thrives. Because Old viewers come back once in a while to check what is happening in Korean Land. Either they start watching something good or leave disappointed again.
Hilarious and sarcastic article but right on point.
I am a new viewer but already annoyed by most of the forced situations-events-happenings.
Age of Youth is in my top 3 dramas of 2016. Every girl has her own distinct nature and personality and their views and lifestyles clash in each and every episode. Every episode concentrating on 1 main girl yet showing what is happening with other girls and how they perceive things about the episode-centered girl makes it more interesting. Then we have 1 minutes interviews + Discovery Channel showcase to Titles of episodes.
Guys are in range from good to bad and clearly shows Girls character and relationships.
You just can't hate any girl at all and each and every Monologue and inner thoughts of Girls hit you hard because whatever they speak is so realistic that you are forced to acknowledge it even if you don't want.
Music is soothing, simple and natural and gives very different vibes and fits the Tv show perfectly. A must watch for everyone. This show is real Slice of Life show. Try it everyone.
Only 12 Episode + 5 female main characters + too realistic + because it airs on JTBC.
Awesome Episode. What Most of Viewers predicted is the TRUTH.
I'm Still... Alive This one line alone made me emotional. Tearful Eyes.
Every Ghost episode came up with a relationship buildup Plot point and it played good part in character development of our main Male and Female character.
Other thing is Hyun Ji talks sense and is strong female character which we get to see in Episode 11 again. Director and Writer has done good job but i felt they are dragging Hye Sung dangerous actions a bit. That's a little complaint. Though Director and Writer has used all the usual Tropes and cliches well and give us a Tv Show which doesn't drag much.
So many Rui fans here. Rui was too adorable in Hana Yori Dango but for a relationship i prefer Tsukasa and Makino.
Baek Inho made the whole show for me and actually the only character which went through Character Development and progress.
Episode 13 made my heart do extra heartbeats. 5 minutes and i felt anger and then 15mintes i'm all happy and even clapped and then i'm emotional and then comedy of 5 jokers and then again frustration and anger then emotional moments.
That hug made me emotional. I was about to cry. Awesome scenes after scenes.
It's like i'm attending some acting school. Different set of emotions kept hitting me throughout the episode and I have to say this - I accept Acknowledge and appreciate all these emotions. I'm Feeling like this after 5 years.
Brilliant job Writer + Director + character + actors + whole team.
What a week it was. As expected The Hero I-Know-It-All and I-Planned-It-All Jung Do played a long timeline Con. This is where show lacks strength. Story+Plot+Characters and Direction is strong but there is no urgency in any of the con. You already know Hero's Team gonna Win and they do the Con pretty easily.
Music is top notch and keep you excited. Team is United again and ready to bring Justice.
I like Chairman Choi calm and composed playing intelligently. Yup this is what you expect from a Baduk Player. Sung il is now a top class Con player. Ma Jin Seok is back and has joined Jung Do and it seems like he was with Jung Do from the start.
Mayor Chun isn't good afterall. He's just a social player. Plays with people's emotions.
Brilliant and Bravo Writer Earned my respect. So many twists and turns and comic moments.
Another High Level action week with lot of Emotions. Trust flying out of the cockpit. In episode 11 it was Jung Do for Sung il and in episode 12 it was Sung il for Jung Do.
Playgorund fight to make-up in police station was funny but True Bromance moment.
That trust took 15 minutes to crack. Brilliant Chairman Choi. When all is said and done it is all Literally coming back to Jung Do.
Sung il action didn't solved the problem. It just slowed down Aggressive Chairman Choi. To solve the problem, To collect the TAXES they all need to team up.
It will be all corrupt guys against all good Guys battle. Unity is the Strength Here.
Game is on now. Though Jung Do has to suffer 2 more Years + Heartache.
I am so happy to see the ratings on MDL is rising but so sad that Korea is too busy to appreciate it. It has been…
Hey Marooya i always found Kdramas having some story for 1st 6 episodes and last 2 episodes.In between all was filler. But after watching so many kdramas Beautiful Mind and 38 task Force changed my views slightly.
You can clearly see the growth of the show with each passing week. It's like now Beautiful Mind is an adult with Voting rights. and next 6 episodes will be like an adult reaching maturity and building its place in human society.
Marvelous episode. Satisfying the viewer in every aspect possible.
The concept of all flashbacks right at the start of the episode builds a good support and base for not only characters but whole story too. This is why 1st 5 minutes now play big part in showing the viewer the exact character development.
All the talk between Young Oh and Jin Sung is worth notable. Both having different perspective,views,beliefs meet each other. Argue their ideology and solve things and become better people especially it has done amazing things for Dr. Young Oh.
Young Og fooling director and those lazy doctors is the funny moment of the episode.
This episode against pitted morals and law vs. Right and Wrong and welfare of patients over greed. This Sociology has win me over and This show is now in my top 5 Kdrama List.
I just watched episode 20 and i have same views as others have. This Tv Show is a big headache. Show title is Beautiful Gong Shim but she becomes side character from episode 11 onwards. From start i critised this idiotic story and its brainless plots. The only thing that was good was interaction between ain characters. Even that lost its charm by 9th episode.
I feel story dragged from the 1st episode itself. Poor Directing Poor Writing and nothing much to say about characters. At first music annoyed me but later i came to like 3 songs and i think music is better than the show itself.
It is like bad fast food. idiotic to the core with no character development and growth.
It is good to see happy ending but even that end can't hide the incapability and unprofesionalism of Director and Writer.
I'm surprised how this Tv show managed to have 11+% of ratings. Its too dumb. I don't know how come South Korean audience can accept this kind of Media. They accept such content that's why kdramas have evolved much.
This kind of tv shows prove the quality of kdramas. hardly 10% content worth watchable.
It feels like you are promoting CD Japan. I'm just nitpicking. Nothing Serious. Point is other e-commerce sites provide same media with discounts and extra points.
There main source of income is Blu-ray sales so obviously Animes to dramas cost a lot.
Crunchyroll is still more concentrated on manga/anime which brings them maximum profit but they are slowly added many more dramas into their line. Also, I was once Premium member of Crunchyroll.
Though, I appreciate your effort to bring J-doramas into a little bit of limelight here.
I just watched episode 9 and 10. What an amazing episodes and i think Episode 9 beats all other episodes in Entertainment. I found Episode 10 Predictable to an extent.
We all know that Jung Do has ulterior motives behind all these con Jobs and this is cleared by him in 1st 5 minutes of the 10th episode itself.
Good to see Sung Hee and Jung Do together. This romance is BitterSweet.
Sung il shocked at the end of episode 10 but we all know Jung Do is using Bang Pil Gyu and the real Revenge plan starts now.
It was clear from the start that Mi Joo was acting. Hehe. I easily caught it.
Now it's Chairman Choi's turn to face the wrath of justice. As for the Con Job it was as usual Unrealistic and completely dramatic. haha.
Another too predictable episode. Half of the main characters fell ill in just 4 aired episodes. Sure writer likes to harm characters. I like Noh Eul's brother. He acts like 1 decent human being.
Pororo thrown outside the luxury home is cruel. Ji-Tae the typical kdrama know-all secrets guy.
Overall, Another so-so episode an as usual last 3 minutes are intense.

hard especially Kim Woo Bin but script is so unevenly written that everything just falls flat.
This kind of overused story and plot demanded strict and Tight writing and equally good
direction but that's what this show exactly lacked. 20 episodes were too much.
Good - Music. Music performed far better than the show itself.
Overall - Director and Writer wasted too much of viewers time.
The show has its own good moments but those scenes can't hide the problems.
As i always say - How you use cliches and tropes shows your skills.
Hilarious and sarcastic article but right on point.

Baek Inho made the whole show for me and actually the only character which went through Character Development and progress.
As expect many predictable tearful situations will happen in the show.
Here is the OST 1 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=A1aRHQ6EnXE
watch the scenes in Ost and you will be able to guess lot of future Conflicts.
That hug made me emotional. I was about to cry. Awesome scenes after scenes.

Again 1st 1 minute directly ties with last 1 minute. 1st 1 minute scene always is crucial. Brilliant work from the Writer and Director.
You Don't Know? Let's Talk tomorrow. Look at how Afraid Dr. Young Oh is.
Young Oh looked quite handsome with rolled up sleeves and playing basketball. Then the way Young Oh touches the lips and is all happy. This Innocence.
Dr. Young Oh and Gye Jin Sung are just tooooooo cute together.
I'm sure Dr. Young Oh 1st tears will be for Gye Jin Sung. Tears of True Love.
Because of episodes cuts you can easily check the rushed editing.
Playgorund fight to make-up in police station was funny but True Bromance moment.
That trust took 15 minutes to crack. Brilliant Chairman Choi. When all is said and done it is all Literally coming back to Jung Do.

This CINDERELLA is quite different and amazing. Be ready for some beating Guys.
