I loved the main couple. They had chemistry and their love story was nice and interesting, even though it started very quickly and it didn't have time to built up. The second lead was an interesting character as well, the opposite of the main lead, dark and violent. I liked how he was the perfect opposition to the love triangle and how tragic his persona was.
The drama did, however, get a bit tiring, with the many many action scenes and twists. But, it was entertaining nevertheless. So, 8 out of 10.

problem with this drama was that it was kind of hard to keep up. The
events followed one another too quickly and you had to pay attention to
two stories and not just one. Honestly, the 2017 story was better than
the new earth one, but they were equally entertaining nevertheless. The
performances were really good, as the actors had to deal with a action
packed theme. Also, the mystery was quite intriguing, even though the
whole bug thing was gross. Fortunately, there wasn't too much blood, as
the drama focused more on the mystery rather than impressing with gore
and sci fi technology. So, 7 out of 10, because the second story was a
but boring.

Korean Drama " Race " is an office drama with an okay plot.The drama is interesting at first, but the office politics and the annoying characters quickly get difficult to keep things enjoyable.
The story also adds a love triangle to the mix out of nowhere, shifting the focus from the female lead's struggles to be accepted as capable by her coworkers to her love life which didn't seem to be the important thing at the moment.
On the other hand, the performances were good enough, considering the material the actors and actresses had to work with.
So, overall, two stars out of ten.

" Lonely Enough To Love" was not what one should expect by the title. It is a light rom com that takes up many themes, that, unfortunately, never developed properly.The romance itself was boring, as it was too slow paced for the length of the drama, didn't have any element of surprise and was predictable. It also felt a bit messy. As for the love triangle, that as well was nothing original.
The friendship part, however, was pretty warm and sweet. But, the side characters were often pushed aside.
Finally, the performances were okay, but the leading lady was felt like she was acting in a 2010 drama.
So, overall, 3 out of 10.

" Kiss me at the stroke of midnight " was an okay rom com.The movie deals with a typical high school romance that turns everyone's fantasy of a girl next door meeting her celebrity crush, into reality. And, of course, he will like her as well. There were some cute moments, as the couple had chemistry and looked good together. There was some drama too.
But the overall story is predictable and cliche. The characters felt one dimensional, especially the leading lady, with no background, no plans for the future or actual personality other than the basic cookie cut one they were introduced with. That is not to say that the actors were bad; they were actually really good and their performances were enjoyable. However, the script didn't allow them to really shine.
So, overall, five out of ten.

" The boyfriend that can't kill and the girlfriend who won't die " had a really strong main story. However, they didn't equally handle all the stories.First of all, this movie is not the typical school romance film, with cute scenes and romance all over it. On the contrary, it explores themes like depression, family drama, and problems that high school students might encounter and deal with. The way the 'couples' (referring to them as pairing not as romantic relations) healed each other and provided comfort was a nice and hopeful note. However, even though the stories were intense and had depth, they needed more time to bloom. The film hardly had time to give them equal time for all of them and that resulted in either having some of the characters underdeveloped or having things happening rashly, which sometimes confused the plot.
Nevertheless, the ending was bittersweet and unexpected. And the actors did an amazing job, especially the leading lady in those final scenes.
So, overall, 6 out of 10.

The story was okay, but it could have been way better. There were so many issues that the drama touched, like having to choose between family and wokr. But the drama focused more on the bringht lights and the beautiful colors rather than the story. So, it felt like it was presented a bit superficial, without taking a deeper dive into what the characters felt. The romance was nice and subbtle, and the monbebe mother was just reletable and funny. Also, the second couple felt odd, as the guy seemed more connected with the son rather with the mother. The final episode was a bit rushed and it was more like it was trying to wrap things up with an unrealistic happy ending. Still, the cinematography was breathtaking and the performances were great from everyone in the cast.
So, overall, six out of ten.

In addition the performances were good and the leading lady was especially likable and adorable. I also enjoyed the fact that they added more side characters to the drama, though the second love story was so so. Plus, the pace of the plot was good.
So, 7 out of 10.
