Korean Drama '' Newtopia '' is a horror comedy with a lot of action scenes.The drama is centered around the romance of the two leading characters, which is the prompt for all the action, but also quite enjoyable in the end, even though the first episodes weren't that great.
Also, the zombie part was fairly basic, with the utilization of many tropes of the genre, but it was entertaining nevertheless. The final episodes were, in addition, very emotional, as the teams finally bonded.
On the other hand, the story was moving way too fast, and the humour was not as enjoyable as the rest of the genres.
Finally, the performances were all great by everyone in the cast.
So, overall, six out of ten.

Korean Drama '' Mother and Mom '' is a family melodrama about the relationship between mother-grandmother-daughter.The drama has many themes that it explores, other than the family bonds, like the pressure on little children about their academic scores and their admission to the best schools and academies, and, of course, the aftermath of that pressure.
Also, the romance was cute and enjoyable, and, thankfully, wasn't the main focus of the drama and was only there to support the plot, even though the chemistry was there.
In addition, the relationship between the two women (mother-daughter) as well as the little girl was an interesting one, and it was thoroughly explored, even though the final episodes were kind of off, with the main lead's reaction. Still, it was a happy ending, even though I would have loved if her relationship with her husband had been also better presented and explored.
Finally, the performances were all great, especially by the little kids.
So, overall, seven out of ten.

Korean Drama '' Motel California '' is a melodrama about family, first love, and small communities.The drama had so many interesting themes to explore, like the main lead's biracial identity and how she was treated by the small community she was raised in, or her relationship with her father and her mother. Alas, everything was only touched upon, were never explored deeper than the surface, and was concentrated on the romance, which wasn't that interesting to begin with, other than the first episode.
At least, the performances were all great by every actor and actress of the cast. The pace, however, of the story was messy and badly handled.
So, overall, four out of ten.

Korean Drama '' Love Your Enemy '' is a romantic comedy about misunderstandings and second chances.The drama has a weak first half that tries to make a successful love triangle, and fails to do so, tries to be funny, but ends up being cheesy, and tries to create tension between the two main characters, but they end up making them annoying.
And yet, the second half was great, funny enough, sweet enough, and romantic enough. The family drama was enjoyable, the mood was light, and the past story, which was what shone in the first half, had a smooth conclusion in the end.
The performances were, in addition, great by everyone in the cast.
So, overall, six out of ten.

Korean Drama '' Gangnam B-Side '' is a dark, action drama.The drama has a quite dark story, and is unafraid to show a more realistic approach on the underground of Gangnam, as its title gives away.
It also has many action scenes and fighting sequences that were well-choreographed.
The characters were interesting as well, even though some of them were moving stereotypes.
In addition, the drama rushed things through, and so the chemistry and the relationship between the characters were inorganic and unrealistic, as well as some parts of the plot. The time jumps were not smooth either.
Finally, the performances were great and enjoyable by everyone in the cast.
So, overall, six out of ten.
