Good Enough

" Drawing Spring " was a cute mini drama.

It focused on two friends that were starting to have feelings for each other. The chemistry between the two leads was intense and their moments together were too sweet and cute to ignore. The kissing scenes were just perfect as well. However, the love triangle was a bit ridiculous and undeveloped. It seemed like it was only there to create some tension in the plot and to lead to that final battle in the ending. Actually, the second lead was just too annoying to handle.

Another minus was the presentation of the whole horse racing concept. It just wasn't good and it looked fake. And yet, the trauma sequences somehow worked and it gave the drama an in depth perspective on the characters.

Finally, the performances were good from everyone in the cast.

So, overall, seven out of ten.

" Cast: The Golden Age of Insiders " was an okay web drama.

The story had a nice background, with the amusement park that looked almost like a fairy tale and gave off circus vibes. The characters were entertaining, even the side ones. The main ones, moreover, were interesting. Finally, the performances were very good from all the actors and actresses in the cast of the drama.

However, the story seemed a bit dull. Sure, there were the youthful vibes with the friendship concept. And, thankfully, they didn't add romance to it. However, I guess it needed more time to have the friendship mature. As for the ending, it was a bit out of the blue and rushed.

So, overall, six out of ten.

Second season of the web drama " First Love Story " was a bit improved compared to the first season, but it felt like it left things half baked.

Again, the Loona girls were pretty good and they looked like professionals. So, the performances were good, from the other actors too.

But, there was the story again. Even though the addition of friendship was a nice touch and made the story a bit more emotional and sweet, the main plot line was partially explored and concluded a bit too hasty. However, at least this time one of the girls got her happy ending.

So, overall, five out of ten.

" Love Cells " was, actually, a good short drama.

The first episodes were a bit over the top, with some ridiculous situation taking place. However, they somehow made it work. The stellar cast, with some heavy industry names having not only a cameo or two but some small parts in it, did add some funny moments to the mix. The story had a surprising new route to follow towards the ending, which was cute and refreshing actually. And they did wrap up things nicely.

The performances, too, were nice from everyone in the cast. The settings and costumes were adorable too.

So, overall, seven out of ten.

" Triple Fling " was an okay web drama.

The main story did have an entertaining factor, as the idea of a girl having three guys with different personalities falling in love with her was interesting. However, the drama kind of focused on her chemistry with one of them, and the other ones were a bit rushed. The ending, well, actually, the endings, were a nice idea, but, because the drama didn't have the leading lady spend much time with the other two boys, they just didn't make sense.

So, overall, six out of ten.

" Hija in between " had so much potential, but they messed up the presentation of the story.

Actually, the main problem of the movie was the ending. It was not open exactly, but there were many issues that were left answered, especially since towards the ending there was a huge twist. They didn't go deep with the girlfriend either, and there was a lot of drama about her character. Also, the main character's story could have been better presented.

Nevertheless, the performances were great from everyone in the cast.

So, overall, five out of ten.

" Best Mistake " was an okay web drama.

The main idea was actually pretty great, especially since the main actors had chemistry. And, for a school drama, it was an interesting twist on the classic first love stories. There was depth into the story actually, with the stalker boy who used his parent's status to get away with his behavior. However, that element, as well as the storyline about the stalker's friend who had enough, the the second lead's parents and the second female lead's story, were not properly presented. The leading lady, in addition, often played the demsal in dispare, and just stood there staring at her attackers, which was a bit awkward. The drama got a bit boring towards the end as well.

So, overall, six out of ten.

" Wish Woosh " was a cute web drama.

The main lady was adorable, though, she got a bit tiring towards the ending, but the final episode made things up smoothly. The office drama was nice as well, as it shown how difficult it is to have a relationship in the office, especially for the business women.

Actually, the second couple was a bit more interesting than the main one. The performances in addition were all great from all the actors and the actresses of the cast.

So, overall, six out of ten.

" It's okay to be sensitive, season two " followed the same pattern as season one, only this time the action was taking place in the office world.

As before, the drama concentrated on women and how they find it hard to react when their colleagues and superiors are plantly sexually harassing them or demining them because of their sex. Again, the way the characters reacted and the conclusion of the drama were reassuring and empowering, as the message was that you are not alone. The addition of romance, however, was somehow unnecessary, as they hardly had time for it and, in the end, it was rushed and partial. The performances were good though and the friendship of the girls nice.

So, overall, seven out of ten.

" Ending Again " was a pretty entertaining web drama.

Not the classic innocent story that Global Playlist usually presents, " Ending Again " had a nice pace romance, with a well developed love triangle. However, in the end, it felt like they left a lot out, like her friend's romance with that suspicious guy, what really happened with the scholarship to Paris, what was that big rumour that ruined the main lead's college life, as pretty much no one talked about it, his friend who was advising him, his motives, as he never actually explained his reasons properly to her, and, well, the ending, oh, and the reasons of her ex's illness and his regret. But, nevertheless, watching it actually made me feel warm and fuzzy. The leading lady had chemistry with both boys, which made it difficult at first to choose one to root for. The best friend was also funny and added some spice to the plot. The performances, finally, were good and the OST great.

So, seven out of ten.

" Big Forest " was a quite interesting drama.

The comedy was solid, with elements of romance, drama and family drama, as well as a lot of slice of life. The characters, apart from the main ones, of course, were entertaining as well. Each episode told the stories of the two different men and their adventures, though, some of them were a bit ridiculous. Still, that unique way that they presented the story, although confusing at the beginning, was actually one of the good factors of the drama. The pace was relaxed too, that allowed for the comedy element to immerge from unlucky situations. The performances, finally, were pretty good from all the actors and actresses of the drama.

So, overall, seven out of ten, because this drama was entertaining and different from other kdramas.

" Tell me what you saw " had its flaws, but, overall, it was solid.

The drama had some interesting cases to present. Especially the first ones were pretty emotional and intense. The main case was also unexpected and had a nice mystery. The characters, as well, were explored in-depth and had strong personalities. The performances were perfect, as expected, but especially the leading lady was a delight. Finally, the atmosphere of the drama was perfect, with enough gore and action to keep things interesting, and a dark mood that feated the story well.

However, the drama had some problems with the execution and the plot. The main plot line was useless after the first episodes and there were some idiotic plot twists that didn't make sense and didn't suit the drama.

But, overall, it was enjoyable, so seven out of ten.

" Missions of love mini drama " finally showed us where that poster came from.

So, the premises of the story were a bit over the top, with the game uploading real characters from the female lead's school (and work), but it had a nice, cute atmosphere as a whole. The performances were pretty good as well, especially from the leading lady. However, if you haven't watched the movie, you might get confused as to who is who and what is their relationship with the female lead. The ending, though, was good and had a nice twist to it.

So, overall, four out of ten.

" XX " (the more accurate title) or " Blue Moon " was a nice web drama.

Global Playlist do tend to take a leap off the school drama (which nails) and give chances to new actors (like Hani here), fortunately, as the stories are pretty good. In this one, they nicely wraped up every nook and plot line that they had, which was satisfying. The revenge scenes were the BEST part of the drama, as they were so enjoyable! The romance was nice and well placed, but the way the girls handled that jerk in the end was just right. The side characters were entertaining too.

So, overall, seven out of ten for this web drama.

" Love After School " was a nice web drama.

It was short, yes, but they managed to actually present a nice story. The main character was nice and the couple had chemistry and that helped a lot with the story. The ending was pretty great too. The side character was, however, annoying, and they didn't properly confront her. Finally, the performances from all actors and actresses of the cast were pretty good and enjoyable. The kissing scenes were really nice too.

So, overall, seven out of ten.
