Mischievous kiss the third movie is about the proposal. And that proposal comes up way too late in the movie. Overall, the movie is cute. The story is one of the most famous stories with many many many remakes and dramas based on it. So, how can they missed it? Maybe the execution wasn't that great. The movie had a fast pace, fortunately, but it didn't have a flow. Events just happen and with no explaination, the characters acted out of character. Maybe it was the too manga like vybe that the movie wanted to give off. Whatever it was, the movie failed to provide.

If you like drama specials, than you will like this one. As a one episode story, it is well executed and it didn't really miss much of the plot, exept some points that weren't explained well and it felt like they have forgoten about these twists of the plot. The performances were really good by the young cast, as they had to pull off some difficult scenes. Also, the story was cute and it had a very realistic ending that concluded nicely. The music, finally, was nice and it suited the drama. So seven out of ten.

First of all, Karin is fashion goals!! She is the classic cute, hyped, sweet protagonist, a sweet reminder of the girl from Heroine disqualified. The story doesn't fall far from it either. It is cute, with a light romance and an over the top scenes, like the ones where people are lifting her up to prepare her for school or her birthday party. But if you enjoy movies with romance and kawaii elements like me, then this one is a must. Also, the performances are good and the story interesting and funny.

Cunning Single Lady sounds like a revenge drama, about a dynamic femme fatal who is ready to take down everyone who stands in her way etc etc. However, it is actually about a woman who is too sweet and too good and too much of a victim.
Minus:
-The story got annoying at some point
-it follows the well known story about rich families and poor girls who fall for the rich CEOs
Positives:
-Good acting
-Even though it's not what the title suggests, it is actually a decent drama
-has some cute aspects
So, 6.5 out of 10.

Good Doctor deals with an interesting and emotional theme, though the romance kind of ruined it for me.
Minus:
-The romance. Why add romance to the story, and not focus on him getting his possition as a surgent? Plus, if he had the mentality of a 10 year old, then the romance was kind of off.
-They constantly explained that he was cured. Plus, his condition was treated as a disease. Should have been better handled.
-It dragged at some points and got boring
Possitives:
-The cases were interesting
-The theme and the story was so great and touching
-There is a happy ending
-The hospital politics made it more interesting.
-The acting was great
So, overall, 6 out of 10.

If you love melodramas and period dramas, then you can not miss this one. This drama has it all, a strong love story, intense mystery, nice background story and politics. I loved that they kept the interest high throughout the twenty episodes, though some dramas tend to overdo it and spread the story so it can last for that long. The flawless acting helped in this case as well, though the leading lady was kind of emotionless at some points. Another thing that kind of stood out for me was that the moving from the past characters to the adult ones was a bit of a bumpy ride, but I can overlook that one, judging this drama as a whole.

About time introduces the viewer with a new concept, the ability to see your time of death. The whole drama revolves around the question, what if you meet someone who can extend your life? So, the premisses are nice enough, the story interesting, the chemistry between the two leads is killing it and the first episodes were sooooo good, it was only a matter of time before this one started to go downhill. And it did. Unfortunately, the musical parts were tiring, the story started getting boring and the twists were just too predictable to entertain. Those things killed the romance, that was so strong and emotional at first. The final ending was good, but I guess a more dramatic one would have been kind of better.

Come and hug me has you from the first few minutes of the very first episode. The whole drama brings up memories from the Just between lovers drama, as the plot about two people who had to overcome the same painful experiance and still be together is kind of the same. In this case the past that haunts the two characters and everyone around them is the father of the lead who is a serial killer. The story and its presentation are excellent and the whole atmosphere superb, as well as the performances. This drama has its way to make you cry, as it is packed with emotions and action scenes. However, towards the ending, it did got a bit tiring, but overall it was terribly good, so 8 out of 10.

Found this drama because of Il hoon, but I've got to say that it was a really enjoyable one. It was funny and had a simple, but entertaining story that didn't get boring. The family dynamics were providing enough laughter, but the performances, that were on point from everyone, were those who helped this drama to be funny and interesting. That is, at some points, things could have gone towards being idiotic and silly, if the actors hadn't pulled the scenes off. Even though it is hard to find subtitles (I did watch the two last ones raw) this drama is worth it, so try it out if you like comedy, school life and family dramas.

Even though the main description says that it is about men who have the "nine" curse, that theme only was displayed at the premisses of the drama. Actually, the story focused more on the love stories of the three (plus the small one) brothers. And those love stories were quite entertaining. They were intense, nostalgic, cute and sad, so you get the whole package. Also, the performances were really good and helped with the development of the story. Finally, the ending was nice, but I would have liked if there was another episode to properly conclude the story. So, 8 out of 10.

Although this drama has only two episodes, it manages to present the story beautifully. Also, even though it is dealing with time skipping and going back in the past to change the future, they did a great job with that difficult theme. The performances were great as well, and the sweet, emotional story helped a lot. The love story as well was fresh and warm and it dealed with loss, depression and bullying, themes that are difficult to deel properly as well. The ending, finally, was satisfying and I couldn't have imagined a better ending for this story. So, all in all, 8 out of 10.

The second movie of itazurana Kiss takes us all to join the two protagonists as they advance to their university studies. The compus days are following the same patern as the first movie, the boy doesn't have any interest in the girl, though he gives out some signs here and there, and the girl is totally in love with him. Surelly, the girl is one of the cutest characters in J dramas out there. She is fun and sweet and has many cute outfits to accompany her personality. The boy takes second lead in miscievous kiss part 2, as we mainly focus on the girl and what she does. But all in all, it was a fun movie.

Chinese school romance dramas are kind of my thing and this one does not disappoint. It has everything, innocent love, intensinty, second lead, good friendship vibes, chemistry between the girl and the boy, nice built up, drama, high school dynamics. Sure, the story wasn't original and there are tons of dramas out there with the same theme, but at least they hundled it pretty neat and the final result was decent. Also, the girl was cute and funny, whether the boy was kind of a snob at first, got better afterwards, but kept his attitude, which was refreshing because in most dramas the male lead starts with a i-hate-you-i-am-too-cynical and makes a 360 degrees turn a few episodes later. So, 7.5 out of 10.

In order to watch this movie, you have to have watched the mini drama first!! I guess you can watch it without having watched the drama, but it won't have the same impact and there is a possibility you'll get confused. Other than that, the story is so so again on this one. At least the boys are fewer and the relationships clearer. The brother sister relationship was awkward. But at least we had a happy ending. Plus, the chemistry between the main couple was good as well and they had some good moments. So 4 out of 10.

Second Season of Let's Eat was kind of more interesting for me at least. The eating wasn't as good as the first season, though they did explore more cuisines. So, fair warning that this drama will make you hungry, even if you aren't really into korean dishes. The story, however, was kind of better, with the mystery interesting, but disappointing in the end, the love story very intriguing and the love triangle very entertaining, but kind of disappointing as well in the end. Actually, the love story was better than the first one, as the two characters were better for each other, and had better chemistry. So, all in all, 7 out of 10.
