Solid Antihero Thriller, give it a try
first of all this is way better binged so you who haven't watched it yet are lucky ones however,in my opinion no matter how far i stayed away from this it kept maintaining the level of good and thrill that it had, it always had me so emotional it's a good one .. for me to stick around for more than a couple of months, and with such a long wait and bad airing schedule and i watch the first ep as soon as it aired and kept on going but it was all worth it in my opinion .. i was so invested in the story and ep 12 killed me ...
so i highly encourage you to watch it if you're a fan of the antihero tope and if you like unpredictable thrillers ... of course there is stuff you will predict but like I think this one was a drama that wasn't like one of those dramas that were safe ... like each eps is packed with some " nothing ever going according to plan " elements which i really liked when I'm watching a thriller not to mention good acting .. (except one thing that went down that i'm heartbroken about )
and regarding the ending in my opinion this was a good ending tbh i like the fact they somewhat gave us a vage ending it made much more sense because had they actually tried to wrap it up i wouldn't believe it .. they did not have enough time to answer all our questions so it was smart of them to finish it off the way they did .. which also leaves a possibility for a season 2 which i will gladly watch ( if ever ) beecaauseee the show was so good

Bravery, Chivalry, Sacrifice, Nobility, Love and Compassion. STOP HESITATING AND WATCH THIS
i watched it again tonight, it made me feel the same way i felt the first time i watched it.An amazing movie about bravery, chivalry, sacrifice, nobility and heroism, will always remain one of my favorite war movies, it had super amazing CGI, great acting ,and fight scenes and tactics but it also had great character development and amazing relationship dynamic, it was beautiful despite the bittersweet scenes, what grabbed my attention the most was the heart of the people so resilient that it tugs at heart and the way it was filmed and acted, this was so empowering and inspirational and delivered much much more than i would have imagined, the emotions were so raw and the beauty of the messages it wanted to convey were immense, this movie deserves a round of applause and nothing less. IF YOU ARE HESTITATING WHETHER TO WATCH DUE TO THE BAD COMMENTS . it's honestly YOUR OPINION to decide, i love epic war and all, i was put of by the comments and when i went in to watch not knowing what to expect but man did it this movieee surpass all my expectations, YES some parts could've have been better but if you love a movie, you love it. and i absolutely, wholeheartedly loved it!
IN THE END IT'S JUST A MOVIE AND YOU SHOULD DECIDE WHETHER YOU LIKE IT OR NOT .

beautiful, heartbreaking but also perseverance and healing love
phenomenal melodrama indeed , pretty heartbreaking but beautiful .. i absolutely loved it and i wanted to kick myself for not watching it soon but this year is the year i decided to watch a few gems from previous years that people talked about that I didn't watch and this was one of them .... oh my goodness i put everything on hold to binge this and man was it worth itthe ml has a character development . he's one of the best ml i've ever stumbled across to be honest .. he's gonna be a memorable one indeed... ji sung's acting was just oozing with talent and jung eum was insanely talented and her acting so heartfelt and very exceptional, you literally cry with her she's that good and she looked absolutely stunning here .. sometimes i couldn't take my eyes off of her and o course our handsome ju sung a 9.5 for me and only cause i felt the need for more scenes with them , the sexual tensionn , the angst , the tenderness at times .........ughghhgh guiltiest of pleasures
i'm not one to write detailed reviews or posts about drama so that's about it .. one of the best melodramas and possibly best dramas of its time .. and it holds up so well with time and it's just such a good one when craving a classic i'm willing to rewatch this maybe later .. sadly i want more of them and now i understand why the fans were so happy about kill me heal me reunion .. sadly for me i already watched and adored that one gave it a 10 as well it's also in my fave drama list and i adored them but now that i've seen it all .. guess when i miss them i;ll have to rewatch one of them .. tho i wish i could just forget and rewatch for the first time .. as i'm not much of rewatcher ... ♥♥♥♥
for me these two actors have been a one true match and the best paired together in my opinion both for ji sung and jung wum, they have the best chemistry and ever since i watched kill me heal , shin se gi / cha do hyun and ri jin has always been one of faves but oh well .. imagine if i watched this first and then watch kill me heal me ... myyy myyy i would've felt double the intensity ..... since shin se gi and her resembled min hyeok and yoo jung here .. would've been so satisfying .. t
well anyway i highly recommend this ... the male lead isn't that much of unforgivable jerk like the drama advertised itself to be ... instead you'll see another character who is exactly the real jerk snake so ..... in fact i'd argue the ml is truly wonderful and sweetheart compared to other characters ... man that stopped me from watching thinking he's is inspired from terrible lakron characters ( i don't watch those because how bad it is there) but i thought that he's very low key and a very deep character who has one of the best character development i've seen yet ..

Different but not at all disappointing .... in hopes you don't miss out on this beauty
i loved it personally , i thought it was bad because of all the comments when it was airing but my goodness it blew me away , i found myself loving it so much , it touched me too , the ost was gorgeous , the acting was stellar.i had been wanting to like a kdrama this much this year and i finally did .. the main couple stole my heart really , the story in itself is very simple and maybe the retelling wasn't what most would like but i will say this it was heartfelt , the pain shared the love felt ...
the main couple relationship just felt intimate, healing and almost inevitable .. which is why i also love the ending and the finale .. please don't let yourself miss out on it , one of a kind , very different and yet , very kdramaawiii in essence , a gem indeed , and for gong yoo lovers , just dive right in , he's such a sight to look at , wonderful actor . never a dull moment .. i enjoyed all his characters until now .. as for the actress .. i added her character to my fave female lead list , i really really loved her tbh , amazing acting and just soothing voice too and very real emotions portrayed here .. but just because i love the actor so much isn't the reason i liked it , nothing stops me from dropping something i can't watch ,even my biases, just wanted to point that out
don't listen to anyone dissing this and watch it, i mean just decide for yourself , if you think it's boring don't give it more than 2 or 3 eps , it picked up around 2 or 3 for me at least, if the sexual content tag annoys you, you can always skip the scenes that annoys you , i thought it was unnecessary too but regardless , there isn't much nudity anyway . just a scene if i remember correctly , idk if this qualifies as a review but let's say it is , rather a general one .. in hopes you don't miss out on this beauty

Fantastic super power movie - horror edition
This was such a fantastic movie all around .. woahhh now that i don't have time for dramas and am catching up on some movies .. what a gem tbh .. i highly recommend ... it has a boss fight too .. lol .the scenery is good , the acting is lovely . i loved the older priest ( such a sweetie ) and lol park seo jun was good and pretty funny with his " almost no reactions " i liked his character a lot , i loved their relationship tbh , i wanted more too , i wouldn't have mind if it were to be made into a drama but i'd like to see the same cast .....
i can't tell you how scary i consider it because it didn't scare me but it does have some stuff but then again it's the kind i'm really used to ... the only horror i can't watch is the really really bloody gorey savage ones where intense disfiguration and killings happen directly on the screen or where there's a really creepy thing that happens that haunts me and this didn't have that , at least not to the level that scares me but the movie is gripping from start to finish .. and you do find yourself rooting for the characters and it even has some scenes that try to haunt you . which is why it succeeds in selling itself as a horror more than other kmovies who say are horror but are genuinely just thrillers with a monster or a silly looking ghost ..
it has a villain whose well written and hero whose journey and story was very interesting and intriguing to follow , it just like all kdramas and movies didn't shy from having meaning and emotions which something i really like .. i like how the priest explains to our hero how his " disbelief" was rather faith and is actually what fuelled the super power ( how i interpreted it ) sounds vague but when you watch this movie you will understand what i mean
for me felt almost like a hero story but powered by jesus. idk i have mixed thought about the concept but it was used in a good way , that glorifies god so maybe that's my thoughts on it for now
final verdict ... good for movie night , i watched it alone but would be nice to watch with friends or fam . ( would imagine this is not too suitable for people who are easily disturbed or kids or for those who haven't watched enough horror .. sometimes the idea of something can disturb more the scenes too so yeah )

a true romcom that's really romcomy
a drama where i think our writernim have found the right balance between seriousness and absolute ridiculousnes , drama and comedy .. my respect, writernim.this show was so good , one of my favorites second couples ever to be honest was looking forward to their scene as much as i was the leads if not more , it was so good , i love their story .. i like the leads as well so much , lovely kisses as well and the couples are just too cute
the drama was so good that i stayed up all night til 4 am binging all episodes , the final could've been a bit better but it doesn't take away from how good this was
it was such a one true romcom .. not much else and i like that about it , nothing too cliche in my opinion i love it .. it made me laugh so hard and made me happy ..... there were of course a few serious things but they don't take up that much space and everything is like really well balanced whish is how i wish most romcoms are tbh
the feelings and fun count in my rating so yeah subjective all the way with this one , when i enjoy a drama i no longer rate it objectively and i don't care about it's flaws ... bok gyu truly hilarious he and the writer are my fave characters tbh they have my heart and don't forget to watch the spin off , after this as you won't have enough of them
i really really adore this one i have to give it a 9

you start with non stop laughs and end with non stop feels - finally a 10/10 worthy 2025 kdrama
wooo so where do i start , the acting is stellar , their performances are just the best out there . hilarious yet touching yet a beauty lol i have no idea how to explain how it all just so perfectly the comedic timing, the way, the plotline , the execution is beyond excellent . it's a winner .. looking like my fave medical drama ever and the best of 2025 .. the writing is amazing , unpredictable and very enjoyable lines too hahahahahha i don't rewatch much but this right here would be as good as a first time watch if i were to rewatch which makes it even more superior too , gosh this feels like the perfect roles too for our main leads the two just seem to the best fit for their roles , like you really can't imagine anyone doing a better job , that's how good and in sync the acting is . i'm so glad i got to binge this , i hope we get more than just one season of this gorgeous masterpiece .. like i even got a mood boost , felt way better about my life just watching this . that's the kdrama escape and healing premise we alll seek when we watch these shows man , i'm so happy i found this gem .. so worth not sleeping for , the no regret kinda staying upso this drama let me tell you .. brilliant and hilarious first ep. i died laughing my but off all the way through .. everything is just funny about it , hahah it is rare for me to love the pilot ep even some of my faves don't exactly have the best start, some do but it is rare, so gorgeous start all around ... felt so in love right then and there with our ml and ourii han moon seonsinnim
then again best two first eps i've started this year , when a drama hooks you right from the start that's how you know , you just know , i stayed up when i was supposed to go to bed wrecked my schedule for it , it's that fantastic
it starts fun and heroic and hilarious and then continues inspiring as they save their patients with the help of each other . through the challenges and opposition how they win characters over, the dramas really gives you such an adrenaline boost in certain eps .. very thrilling episodes come along as you go to the next eps , you really don't feel the time go by it's bingeworthy and then it also explore the emotions of these docs and nurses too, i love almost all characters, they're just likable, very easily and i promise nothing about this drama feels forced even the character development of ouri han yurim seonsinim hahah for instances he became also one of my faves as the drama progressed .. here, this exceed all expectations tooo i was expecting it to only stick to its hospital premise and everyday cases but no it went beyond just having different cases every ep and i love that, the addition of a variety of situations and scenes where they still fight for patient's lives made it, thrilling, different, special and heart-warming and y'all .. this show has it all and i think with the season 2 and 3 coming up we can explore even more fun moments with our crazy wonderful team
if you gotta watch a medical kdrama, better start with this one right here , you'll be off to a great adventure indeed! and this is coming from a medical kdrama ummm( not gonna say hater ) but i don't prefer them

A Drama That Inspires You
this drama is not your typical romcom drama.. this is more of a healing slice of life, it's beautiful and the characters shine through the pain ...i think when you go you should be expecting that so go in in the mood for a healing slice of life rather than a romcomMost reviews I read about it and most comments made me think this was gonna be terrible but it was such a blast I’m so glad I still watched it and didn’t let the bad comments make me biased
in the dramas defense : i don't agree that the name and trailer are misleading, they fit the drama perfectly and stayed true to it pretty well and you understand that there gonna be some trouble ( melodrama and a dark side to the story from the trailer ) , but then again i agree the synopsis is kinda misleading but like from the first and second episode it explains clearly what the drama is going to be and it become clear where it's going... a drama about a castaway survivor who ended up stranded on the island trying to run away from her violent father's abuse and the boy who was going to run away with her who also was a victim of his father's abuse and then searched for her for over 15 years while hiding behind a different name wasn't magically going to somehow be a corny, funny romcom and not have any difficulties/dark side along the way
A drama that inspires you.. the drama truly inspired me and i appreciate what it actually is , i saw the beauty of it and it truly teach you something .. the story here is beautiful. heartwarming and inspiring . it has a message to tell. actually quite a few messages
i cried so much watching this drama it always had a tear falling down my cheek . always in my feels, always rooting for the characters
it makes you realize how you can give without expecting much in return , how you can love and give unconditionally, how some times you finding a meaning in life , doing so , genuine connections here were beautiful and meaningful and they can teach you something
the amount of character development you see in this drama for certain characters is just so good and so worth it , the acting is so excellent and i thibk this drama is better binged thank goodness i waited
and just like that the second half of the drama won me over in ways i can't explain it made the drama go from a 7 to 9 for me , it was very beautiful and well made
after such a perfect satisfying finaleee in such a long timmeeeeeeeeeee and now the 9 nine feels insufficient i so it's def a 9.5
and mok ha is incredible truly precious one of my fave female leads
the acting here is brilliant on behalf of all the cast, the ml did a lot of good acting with his eyes .. so expressive
