Boyfriend on Demand is a very funny and romantic show. It’s fantasy but still brings something fresh and comedic to the table.It’s perfect for anybody needing a break from their own life and wanting to enter a new glamorous world, without worrying about anything else. Boyfriend on Demand really sucks you up and keeps you in the bubble filled of romance, comedy and Jisoo!
I think it’s a fresh approach seeing many stories and plots about one woman dating many different men. It feels new since a lot of the dramas I’ve watched often only focus on a few couples who stick to their own partner.
JISOO! I think she really has improved as an actress and I that this role fit Jisoo very well. She really wore so many outfits, it’s crazy! Jisoo really looked stunning in every single one of them. While I of course knew that Mi Rae would be the female lead, I was pleasantly surprised by how much screentime she had. Like she really dominated the show.
Even though I enjoyed Seo Eun Ho and Seo Mi Rae together so much, I’m really happy that she ended up with somebody from reality. I think that gives a clear message about dating AI nowadays too. Seo Mi Rae and Park Gyeong Nam made such a great couple, they were so cute together! Love to see the cute backstories, for example park Gyeong Nam staying at the office even when he didn’t have any deadline to worry about!
I was pretty sceptical about the first 1.5 episodes, but it swiftly improved and reached its peak with episode three.
Lee Ji Yeon was so funny and gorgeous, loved her and I hope she could date Min Jun Yeong.
Could have been better:
Some parts were a bit messy/confusing and I didn’t particularly love the last episode. Boyfriend on Demand is obviously a pretty light-weighted drama, so while I didn’t really expect anything deep, the absence of it is probably one of the things that stop me from connecting to the drama as much as I could have been.
Otherwise don’t really have anything to complain about.
Truly recommend it!
Best episode: Episode 3
Disclaimer: Blackpink is one of my ult groups, hence I might overpraise Jisoo a little but in my eyes she did really well!

No Tail to Tell is an unique and funny k-drama. It mostly consists of nice romance, comedy and fantasy but balances it out with some very appreciated emotional scenes where the cast’s skill really gets to shine.Kang Si Yeol and Eun Ho make such a cute couple and their romance was definitely the highlight of the show. And even while alone Eun Ho was so cute but caring at the same time. She carries the innocent vibe and the sweet smile just makes you happy lol.
CHAERYEONG OST YAYAYA! My favorite song from the soundtrack and I love it so much! Very happy that Chaeryeong (my bias-wrecker in ITZY) got to sing another OST!
Then I need to yap about Geum Ho. She is my favorite character, carrying this super cute and innocent look! She was insanely cute but also pulled off the cool look during episode 12. She is so my type, she looked amazing the whole show and really made the k-drama even better!
Could have been better:
The first episodes were not that enjoyable, but then episode four was peak and it continued steady and nice.
Some parts, especially the first episodes and the first half of the last episode, were pretty messy and confusing.
When it comes to the characters, I was annoyed by Kang Si Yeol’s egocentrism in the first episodes, but he soon got better. Eun Ho really got on my nerves during the second half of the series though. While Kang Si Yeol tried to adapt to their current situation, Eun Ho mostly thought about herself and for example chose to sell Kang Si Yeol’s air conditioner (without asking for permission or checking the worth of the product) instead of just selling all the very expensive dresses she owned and didn’t wear.
A bit disappointed to not see how Geum Ho ended up and if she got her happy ending after becoming a Geumiho. I would also have liked an explanation for why she looked the same as Eun Ho’s old friend, why did the Heavens decide that?
Best episode: 4

Super good!
Hotel del Luna is a very good and enthralling drama. Starting with more horror and thriller, it nicely shifted to more focus and romance, comedy following along with all the 16 episodes.The staff (the inner circle) really felt like a family in the end and I enjoyed learning more about their stories.
Already from the first episode, I really felt that Jang Man Wol and Ko Chang Sung had a lot of chemistry, and they really proved themselves.
I will always be amazed by how many different dresses Man Wol wore and the dedication to make every look stand out.
The last four episodes got ten out of ten stares, one got 8.5 and the rest of the episodes got either 9 or 9.5 stars. It was really such a lovely journey!
Lee Mi Ra and Park Young Soo were so cute together, happy that they will get married and made up! I really enjoyed the concept of Mago and all the different versions there were. Seo Yi Sook really showed off her amazing acting skills here! What a nice production and clearly budget too! Most of the scenes were so pretty.
I’m honestly surprised that there were no instrumental OST, but the ones released (with vocals) fit Hotel del Luna very well.
Could have been better:The ending was a bit too vague for my liking and I feel like there were a few filler episodes that brought down the overall enjoyment considering how good the first and the final episodes were.
Best episode: Episode 13

Lovestruck in the City is a very fresh and unique k-drama. It was such a refreshing universe to enter and it is the perfect break from one’s regular life. The show was incredibly well-written and I smiled so much when watching it.It was really cool seeing the protagonists going from talking to each other through the interviews to actually seeing each other IRL. The duration of each episode was also perfect and I really felt like I was captured and stuck when I was watching Lovestruck in the City. I really lost track of time and barely checked the time, which is a very great compliment.
Lee Eun O was so flipping cute and just felt so fresh and amazing! Oh Sun Yeong also really grew on me, the more you got to know about her, the more you realized the actual depth her character had.
I also need to mention that the OST was so good (I was very surprised by how many songs we got though) and that the flashbacks were amazing and probably my favorite parts of the show! They were so fresh, especially the beach scenes with Park Jae Won and Lee Eun O!
Could have been better: While Lee Eun O is my favorite character, she did annoy me a lot, especially when avoiding Park Jae Won.
I would have wanted to see more of when Park Jae Won and Lee Eun O got back together, it felt a bit out of place but I’m of course happy that they did.
While the ending was cute, it felt sudden and a bit out of rushed compared to the pace of the rest of the series.
Rin I and Kyeong Joon breaking up came as such a shocker, I got a bit disappointed but I suppose all characters can’t get a happy ending.
Disclaimer: It was difficult to give the correct rating and ranking considering how unique and different from other series Lovestruck in the City was, but I tried my best and this is how it turned out.
Best episode: Episode 9

Balancing romance, idol life and mystery - a masterpiece
Trying to make my review short, I'll include my main thoughts.IDOL I is a very good drama consisting of mostly romance but also plenty of scenes with mystery. The acting was phenomenal in many cases and even though it had a pretty slow start it finished on top without any episode being boring or skip-worthy. My favorite thing about this drama is definitely the different perspective of idol life, how difficult and painful it can be to always have so many watching and judging you. Recommended to all k-pop fans and anybody who needs a great k-drama to watch!
Best episodes: 4 & 7
