Nicely Done

Wow Finally it has come to an end with a nice little bow!!

This drama was not disappointing to say the least, accept for the fact that I had too watch this ongoing and waiting every week for the next episode was torturous.

This drama was a continuous from the first one, and I was super glad to see that the cast were the same, and it picked where they left it, which always a good thing in my books.

The Plot/Drama itself was kind of slow, and it did look like there was ending or beginning happening, for me the only thing that kept intrigued was the cast, there were all amazing (esp Mark & Kit) which probably the main reason I watched this drama.

I maybe over Exaggerating my ratings based solely on the cast and not really the story itself.

There were some scenes that just quiet fit this whole drama, I will start off with markit cause that whole supposedly separation, incase he went to study abroad in real was just a waste, I think many new couples go through something like, although it was a good way to test each other, I just felt it was pointless. Than&Wayo kiss scenes were super boring to say the least, I feel like he took long to lean into kiss him or the disturbances were so unrealistic, its liked they were supposed to kiss but they actually did not want too, that build up was wasted screen time in my opinion, Then Pok&Tong well I get were each of them were coming from, and they suite each other, It would be nice to see them in there own drama developing there relationship further (whose with me?) And lastly Sandee&Phai well I am glad he learn his ways and again I think we need to some develop with him and Phai cuz clearly he started like Phai after he came right.

So in essence this drama is 50/50.

Overall : Just watch it and enjoy it yourself, or for the hot characters that were all matched and got along with each other, despite the plots and personal conflicts, twists and turns, long close ups, sweet love. Just watch.

A good attempt ... But sadly not executed

Okay so if this was an attempt to try and do a BDSM movie, or recreate 50 Shades then this movie was a complete fail!!

The only reason I am giving this 6 star is for the attempt and the funny moments that were in this movie, but either than that it was really very disappointing to out right boring.

Firstly - I think the writers should have done an in-depth search on BDSM.
Secondly - The main leads did not suit each other one bit, they were both so stiff and not even well matched to say the least, the one pro on this, is that at least the female lead was a dominant, but again she did not suit this part and definitely did not come across as a dominant at all.
Thirdly - the whole DS relationship was so off track that you could not feel or even excited trying to watch it, I was really disappointed. They had right the name, for the movie but it just was not executed properly.

Now I am not sure if this taboo in Korea, considering that there are some really good BL coming from, but in all honestly if they are going to do BDSM they need to get the story, as well proper characters, to play these kind of roles (more like the couple from nevertheless)

The only other good thing of this movie, I guess you could say is the introduction to this lifestyle and that is portraying a male submissive as pathetic, but that it was not the case in the slightest. it did show by putting up definitions and explanations of terms on screen to make it easier to understand, but again it was not executed in the right, I think the writers/producers should have used 50 shades as a basis to understanding the lifestyle.

Overall: For me this movie was a bit of disappointed, but it in the same token it was an okay attempt to BDSM lifestyle.

Suspenseful !!!

OMG this series/drama was so good and extremely nerve wreaking and kept wanting more, the only downside is that I watched this ongoing and having to wait every week for a new episode, was painful.

Right on with the review, Wow starting off with the acting, it's was good, great to be exactly, the cast pulled it off with what their character supposed to be, the women roles and the cattiness they showed us dam Giwi had it down to a tee, she pulled off her role so well, and of course I loved Tay as the Inspector and Josh looked really HOT as well which was a real bonus to this drama.

Plot/Twist: Okay to start off, although I loved Giwi performance, I must say her cattiness and nastiness was on downright scary and extremely mean, even though she pulled it off, I did like the fact that she got what came to her, and she fell off her high horse, we got to see a bit of why she turned out the way did in the last episode with her mom. I did feel for Mim but her plot and revenge tact's were weak and she never saw anything through and failed, I didn't much enjoy the part where she felt she had to lie to friend/lover to get her way that for me was wrong and no better then Giwi, she should have come clean when she got caught the first time, instead of playing the dude. Eve was also on a bit of bad ass chick, when she got all nasty, even though she came around in the end, there were some things i felt she could have handled a bit better, This drama portrayed some really strong women and what could possibly happen when a woman gets scorned!! (nothing hurts like a scorned woman). As for the two HOT MEN in this drama which made it well worth watching, Tay would inspector that sort of gets played by mim because of the love he has for her, and Josh who is the rich bad boy who set he sights on Eve but uses Mim to get to her, but then does a 360 when he sees his mistakes.

This drama has it all, suspense/lover/manipulations/back stabbing/murder/lies. Realizing one mistakes and owning up to it, even though people had to get hurt or even killed. The one thing that bugged me, it show us how weak the justice systems is.

OVERALL: This drama is well worth the watch and so much fun, if you looking for something different.

Short but could have been better

So after seeing the preview of this drama, I honestly thought this was going to be a really Wow drama, but Nope all I got was a short drama with 8 episodes and each 10 minute long which for me was a real disappointment.

The story was just boring. Nothing happened. In the span of 8 episodes, not a single thing happened. The whole show can be boiled down to this: a new guy joins a restaurant and creates an overly dramatic love triangle that would never happen in real life.

There is literally nothing for me to say about this drama, accept the music was not so bad, and he sort of went well with scenes however they could have expanded on the story and made it a bit more realistic, it definitely had so much potential, but it just felt like so false and boring.

The actors were not so bad, so there is that, but again they charcters lacked growth and chemistry. The whole love triangle was there, but what got me so annoyed was the confession and the guy didn't correct any of the misunderstanding that happened to the friendship, which may I add was 15 years, that to me came across like he was playing both friends against each other.

Overall: basically just watch this drama if you have nothing better to do and need to kill time.

True life love story...

This drama real,y touched on a little about everything that goes in every day life.

I thought the actors did a phenomenal job. The conveyed there emotions very well, there was no awkwardness at all, i could feel there love for each other. For only 4 episodes i felt they really did a fantastic job, of keeping to the story, it flowed through really well and time and age clock you were able to see how they progressed and grew together, for me personally I would have love to see yuki not give in so easily to akira and let him try to feel his pain of what he went through, guess love does conquer all.

The story wa3 fantastically portrayed. I loved the concept of showing sign8ficant timesand events from different periods of their lives.

The music was not that good but it was listenable.

In the end everyone has they own life to live, no matter how they choose to live it, and with who ever they choose to. Society famiky and friends shoukd not have say and for me the guilt trip that parents in general throw at there children to live a certain way is so very wrong.

Overall this drama was really awesome

Wasted Screen time

Oh my goodness what on earth did I just watch?

These 3 episodes and screen time was a real bloody waste of time, despite the fact the Mean (aka 2) was in there, and partly the reason I watched it .

This show is utter chaos! What happened? All the characters I loved, all the basic traits and connections between characters etc. were destroyed. There was/is no consistency with this show in pretty much any regards to the 'parent' shows, the characters, or even just as you watch the show itself (disregarding all your previous knowledge of the characters and past shows; watching it as a new show itself) it is all over the place and gives me a literal headache.

Each of these the couples could have avoided a whole lot of wasted time if they just sat down and talked, this drama was based on one big bloody Misunderstanding!!!!

Deception .... Heartbreaking.... Enjoyable....

I totally loved this drama, not only for the two main hot leads, but the fact they showed how each of them grew from the first series (together with me).

The story line is isn't your typically BL dramas, and people apparently can't handle that. No, it isn't lighthearted and easygoing like other series out there; but it's raw and authentic and definitely deserves its worth. The actors here are fantastic as always, and the writing is not terrible like some are making it out to be; clearly something's working because it's doing what a good story is supposed to do: it's making people react, it's evoking emotions. I did have mixed emotions, on the whole cheating lifestyle of farm and rit story, but after sticking to my guns and pursed on, Farm and Bright's story (which is essentially Farm giving Bright a taste of his own medicine), this isn't true. Both Yihwa and Korn (the two "cheaters") are placed in situations that test their feelings and relationships. Korn's is induced by mounting pressure from his conservative, overbearing father to denounce his homosexuality and the strain this puts on his relationship with Knock (which causes them to fight about other little things as well), while Yihwa finds herself being seduced by her senior and boss. They're conflicted and act out of moments of weakness. Korn has ONE sexual encounter with his boss during a night of drinking and commiserating. Yihwa, beginning to feel conflicted and confused about her feelings towards Cho in light of the flirtatious attention from her boss, decides to take a break from both and figure herself out. And that's it!

Personnel I think each of these characters story line and how they played out was really good, it showed how each individual dealt with there problems, and how all stood together when times hit rock bottom, especially Fai she never wavered away despite her strong opion on cheating and deception. Korn and Knock story was really strong, although he cheated on his partner he was remorseful and regretted what he did, which showed his love and commitment to him, I found the parents really funny though and they did add a bit of lightness to the drama. Yihwa, who made it seem like she ended cheating, felt bad for own deceitful, but to how her friend did it.

MUSIC: I don't have much to say about the music and I really loved the fact that they used the soundtracks from the previous seasons too, especially from Bad Romance <3 It made it easier to take the feel of that moment. I can't say that I loved all the songs but they did suite the moment when it was playing.

REWATCH VALUE: I would 100% rewatch these series just for the sake of having fun or when I feel bad to make my day better and care more about their problems rather than mine.

OVERALL: I really enjoyed these series and I and really sad that so many people dropped hem in the middle just because they didn't get the classic lovey-dovey BL series they were expecting for. But then again, this is so much more interesting than just another cheesy series where everything is rainbows and sweetness. It's not like that in real life and it nice to take something with you from the series as a life lesson :)

The Melody of The Heart in Soul ...

Going into this movie without a lot of knowledge, left me reluctant to watch, but I went ahead and watched it regardless.

For me it started kind of slow, and it took a while to get into it, biggest thing to say is that the movie both portrayed our male leads , rising singer Kang In Soo ( playing himself ) and novice producer Yoo Sang yi ( Lee Sang) ‘s relationship in a refreshingly less cliche way than previous same-sex pairings in Korean productions - not through their sexuality, but through Sang Yi’s journey in making sense of his genuine feelings for Kang In Soo over the course of the movie. It was an undeniably sweet and modern love story for our two male leads , yet nonetheless sugarcoated in favor of avoiding more difficult issues.

First of all it is important to say that whilst this wasn’t the main aim of the movie to home-in on a “ realistic” relationship and certain, Kang In Soo and Lee Sang were brilliant within their portrayals echoing a certain level of heartache and emotion behind their performances. Their characters were also evidently Kang In Soo was set out to be the “ mysterious” and “ handsome” musician, whilst Lee Sang acted as the “ awkward” and “ kind-hearted” producer. Yet apart from these roles and their evident relationship onscreen, their characters often felt lacking in greater depth.

Overall: This probably won't be everyone’s cup of tea, but it was a surprisingly sweet and progressive love story, like I mentioned I watched it without any prior knowledge. brilliant acting from our male leads.

Music made this drama ....

First off the soundtrack in this drama was so amazing and really awesome, I loved the main song.

Goblin has just made my favorites list, the cinematography was gorgeous, the music was amazing, the actors were perfect, The story will make you laugh and make you cry. Not only is the love story epic, but so is the bromance between Goblin and Reaper. I've found that I'm quite fond of this fantasy genre and this has been done so well. I have hardly any criticisms of this show at all because even the flaws faded into nothing noticeable for me. It's sweet, funny, romantic, sad, tragic, beautiful...

Goblin is a great drama. I went into it with low expectations, but I was pleasantly surprised, or more accurately, I was blown away. You can recognize a good drama by the way it makes you feel exactly what the characters in the drama are feeling. That's the way Goblin was for me, with each character, I laughed and I cried.

The actors do a superb job. I could feel their emotions from across the screen. then again, nothing less to be expected from such a spectacular cast.
-The drama has everything, ranging from bromance, romance to mystery and suspense.
-The bromance is spectacular. One of the most epic bromance I've ever seen in a Kdrama. It made me laugh a lot, but it also had its heartwarming and heart-wrenching moments. Goblin and Grim Reaper's relationship is one of the best reasons to pick this up. The two couples- Goblin & Eun Tak and Grim Reaper & Sunny. Both couples had their own story. The sweet and cute moments of the Goblin couple & the sizzling chemistry between Grim Reaper and Sunny was enough to keep the 'romance' meter of the drama pretty high. You won't be able to get enough of the cuteness of Goblin & Eun Tak.
-The mystery of the characters. From 'the lady in red' to the king and queen, each episode just gave enough glimpse into their lives to keep us engrossed. It'll drive you crazy in a good way.
-Each minute of every episode was enjoyable. I didn't skip a single moment of any episode.
-The unexpectedness of the drama was really great. Just when you'd think you had something figured out, some twist would come along and surprise you. The writer sure did a tremendous job.

BONUS: Beautiful and addictive OST

I LOVED this drama! Do give this one a chance, you won't be disappointed. Once you start it, chances are, you'll end up loving it. Happy Watching!

Beautiful

Finally the big day....

This was a really beautiful wedding the build up to it, the excitement of Tharn and the hidden excitement of Type was really cute and smile worthy watching.

I loved how they touched back on there first encounters and the challenges they went through together, and then how they came to be where they ended up.

I really enjoyed how this episode revolves 90% around Thanrtype as it should. Their story was wrapped up with a bow on top. It was really emotional seeing them finally getting married after two seasons of watching them grow together.

A really good ending to this series.

Amusing and funny

I can't say that I really enjoyed this series, however it was very entertaining.

You have a very strong FL who acted extremely well, and knew her place, however the ML was just way amusing and often very childish, to the put it did put off wanting to watch it, there was no real story line behind it i feel, she was general who led a strong army and was married off to very a fragile looking man, (where at times you wondered if he was manly enough), his childish behavior in the beginning was extremely laughable.

This series i found was more comical than anything and for 60 episodes I think was too long for no real life story.

He did come through in the end, but was still immature, I like the FL lead and her strong personality and they way handled things including her husband, which at times she treated like spoilt child.

Funny and Excellent..

I really loved the third season of this series, I preferred this one to the first two.

What I loved about this was at least it picked up where it left off, so we got to see how they went back, also the original song was kept, I just feel that this song is iconic to this these three series.

Well as for the Main couples, as always they did not disappoint, there chemistry is so real and they work really well, I love the pairing of these two. But OMG the double play of the FL was extraordinary, from the playful taner to the more serious queen, was performed really well, and the costumes throughout the whole series were amazing, on both the ML and FL, they were wore amazing outfits.

The ML was really good as well, and he captured a lot of detailed expression. he portrayed his character really nicely and did a terrific job at it. These two are amazing together, hope to see them again very soon.

Overall this series was excellent hats off to everyone who contributed and made this drama.
