The High&Low franchise is a popular one and for a good reason. The whole production must have cost a fortune, as there were so many characters and members in each gang. The four teams were interesting to watch, as each one was distinguish, with different kingdom and different costumes. The fighting scenes were top notch as well. That said, the performances were great from all the actors. The ending was kind of left some questions answered, but there is a second season. Finally, the story was interesting, although it was confusing because there were too many characters to get to know in such a short time.

One warning about this drama: don't expect too much!! I guess the only thing that was positive about this one was the performances. All the actors and actresses of this one were decent and better than the standards of this drama. Now, not that the execution wasn't good. At least they didn't fall for the manga-anime like trop with the exaggeration of emotions and situations. However, the story was a cliche fest. The love triangle was just tiring to watch and there was nothingh unpredictable about this one. The twists were idiotic, as the girl could not have possibly got over someone so fast, but played the hard to get for a good length of four episodes after that. Okay, maybe I'm too harsh with this one. If it was a 4 or 5 episode series, maybe the story wouldn't have to repeat the twists over and over and make the characters into irrational love fools. But the 10 episodes killed it.

Top Management offers an inside on what is like to manage an idol group who are about to make a come back. The story is cute and overall nice, however, the last episode was really bad. They didn't conclude the events nicelly and it was confusing as well. The magical abilities of the leading lady were confusing as well, as they were introduced rather awkwardly and they only used once or twice to aid the plot's progress. I did like the story though. Apart from those mishaps, the main plot was interesting and the romance cute. The performances were good as well. Aslo, I liked that each episode was named after a popular kpop song.

A Simple drama with a cozy feeling to it. I wasn't going to watch it at first, as the description wasn't that appealing. Also, the first episode was just so so, with nothing interesting to display. However, the story had more to it than just Incheon employees. The robot parts twist was entertaining at first, as it was fascinating to try to figure out what was happening and why he had super human strength. Then, when it was explained properly his story, it became more humain and closer to a slice of life drama than a fantasy. However, I found the leading character dull. Not that the actor did a bad job with his performance. But the character was only presented as a man who hated his currant condition and was in love with the leading lady. So, that and the ending too. Too many stories were left open, questions were left unaswered and the final scene wasn't satisfying.

When it comes to romance, this movie had it plenty. It was a nice love story, intense, innocent and yet complicated and tragic. The two main character looked good together, though the magician looked a bit too young. Now, for the parts that I didn't like; the action scenes were good, but the CGI were bad. The back story was confusing, as they didn't really explained it well. Also, the princess's story was explained properly either. The ending, finally, could have been better.
Other than that, it was an enjoyable movie, with good performances and decent settings. So, five out of ten.

Finding Mr Destiny was cute, but I've found it kind of boring. The idea behind the plot was interesting and it had potential, but it wasn't well executed. The plot was messed up and the characters did things randomly and irrationally. Especially the leading lady, who wanted to find her first love, but she always backed out and she was the one who made it hard to find him. It was actually obvious that this was based on a musical, and it would have been better if they had kept it that way. Also, the trap of not revealing the first love's face and just replacing it with the main lead's was confusing. At least the ending was okay and the performances decent.
