Abyss
Well.......storyline was good, it was cute and there was mystery and sad scenes. Park Bo Young, Han So Hee and Kwon Soo Hyun were amazing. There is no way to not cry when PBY is crying and her scene during funeral is one of the best in this drama. I love Seo In Guk's cameo, it was even better cause I love PBY&SIG as a duo so having them in one drama, even without playing scenes together for me was perfect.But I do not know if it is character's fault or script's but Ahn Hyo Seop in this drama did nothing for me. Do not get me wrong I do not say he is bad actor but I did not felt any chemistry between him and PBY - maybe because of age? So when the rest of the cast was 10/10, his character was 5/10 which of course lead to worse rating of this drama, still 7/10 is pretty high rating.
It is hard to say if I recommend this or not, you just need to check it out yourself and decide.

Kakegurui 2: Ultimate Russian Roulette
I really loved this movie, in my opinion much better than the first one. Cast played really well, I really can not think of anyone else to play this characters, the storyline was interesting - yes still about gambling. Scene with russian roulette is my favourite. If you watched the series then it is somehow a must have to watch.Was this review helpful to you?

Revenge of others
Hmm interesting that it is 18+ type of drama, I do not remember things to make it for this age, but I can be wrong. There are many serious topic as suicide, mental problems, bullying. But cast played really well, had great chemistry together. I like the plot twists, I like that it has only 12 episodes, it is perfect amount for this drama. But there are some questions unaswered - as for example his illness. But yes as far as it can sound weird with topics of drama I had fun watching this.Was this review helpful to you?
Soundtrack #2
It was short and cute kdrama. I am also happy with who she choosed - yes love triangle, but it pretty normal, not some kind of fighting between male characters - so if you are not the biggest fan of this concept then it can still work out. As far as I like it I have to admit that I much more like soundtrack #1 - maybe cast worked better or just a plot, I do not know but I still think that this is worth watching.Was this review helpful to you?
Two lights: relumino
It is more an advertisment than actual drama but when I saw Park Hyung Sik I had to watch and it was good. It could work perfectly as a short kdrama, for example 4 episodes? so we could learn more about characters.If I remember right I even cried - It is a meaningful short movie - so yes everybody can watch it, it will not take much of your time and you will watch one more beautiful production.

Link: eat, love, kill
It is a easy and fun kdrama, there is mystery, romance, comedy. some crazy/chaotic moments and a little bit of fantasy. Main leads are cute together, also it is my first drama with them and I liked them a lot, they played really well. I am happy that everything was explained and they did not leave a open ending and many questions unaswered ( I do not know if we can count it as a spoiler).Also the OST, omg the song "Connect" - it is so beautiful.

Everything and nothing
Why I choosed to watch it? First reason - Park Si Eun, I really like her in Stayc and when I heard she was also an actress I just needed to check it out - and yes she was amazing.Second reason - it is short, 4 episodes for 0,5 hour - yes, binge-watching worthy.
But it is not a happy, smiley show, there are meaningful and sad topics but definitely something worth watching.

Business proposal
First I need to say how wrong I was, I thought this drama was overhyped and watching this would be waste of time - well my opinion was just wrong and I would regret if I did not give it a chance.Second couple was perfect, cast had excellent chemistry and played really well (although I am not the biggest fan of Ahn Hyo Seop, he worked here well), Kim Sejeong - she was amazing, like it was even a question?
Yes this is typical rom-com but if you looking for something light, easy to watch and like this type of genre then this is one of the best to choose.
I feel like the ending was a bit rushed or just needed one more episodes but still very good drama.

Bring it on, Ghost!
I was abroad and it was one of view shows I could watch on amazon and I am satisfied that I watched this. It is fun drama with some scenes for crying (well as expected, in the end most korean production - even happy ones - have view sad scenes). Chemistry was cute. First kdrama with Kim So Hyun where I could find out how good she is. Ok Taec Yeon - I watched vincenzo first, I already knew how amazing actor he is but seeing him in this role just proved it. If you like fantasy drama I highly recommend this one.Was this review helpful to you?
A year-end medley
Perfect movie if you are looking for something light. It is really cute and adorable production. Couples and stories are enjoyable. It is really good movie for winter/christmass season - if someone likes watching during specific time of the year. I do believe that this story could also work as a drama, maybe not 16 episodes long but for example 6 episodes would work perfectly cause some things could get better explanations, but still this movie is totally worth watching.Was this review helpful to you?
Tomorrow
There is fantasy, actions, drama, romance, happy and sad scenes ( a lot of sad scenes so be ready for crying) - just full package. Cast did really well. The concept is interesting, every episode is about different story - if I remember correctly it is sometimes like half story for one episode and other half for next. Some of this stories could easily be their own drama ( maybe not as long but for short ones perfect). It contains a lot of meaningfull topics so I recommed to watch it.Was this review helpful to you?

Page Turner
I choosed this drama because Kim So Hyun and cause it is short, only 3 episodes so easy fo binge-watching. First of all there is not any romance eventhough it seemed like there would be ( I do not know if it counts as spoiler). The plot is meaningfull, there are different struggles and character's development. There is no way to not cry while watching. Definitely worth watching.Was this review helpful to you?

Kakegurui
It is probably my first japanese drama and I liked it a lot. Hamabe Minami was excellent as main character. The concept is fun and interesting, It is for sure less "sexual" than anime and this is advantage for me. I wished they explained more about Yumeko's family. Also I like a little romance so I would love to see it between Yumeko and Ryota but this is not this type of drama.There is not many episodes and they are not long so this drama is a binge-watched worthy, although there are also movies, second season and a spin-off.

Death's game
I do not really know if it is a spoiler or not but this drama for sure is not for people who do not like brutal scenes, there are quite a lot maybe not so much visually but still. Also it is a pretty bloody. So not for everyone even if you love the cast.And if talk about th cast it was perfect, Seo In Guk was amazing, Park So Dam was so good, everyone played their roles perfectly.
I do not really think that we can treat as a two seasons drama, it is more like there was just a short break but it is not that important.
This drama is good, with excellent cast and very good OST.

Boyfriend on demand
Warning after reading everything I have written - it is chaotic review (sorry not sorry) and it contains spoilers (sadly also for some other dramas) - have a nice read :DShort summary would be - typical, light romcom, perfect to relax. Personally I feel like if you liked Business Proporsal then you will like this. Of course I can be a little biased since I love Seo In Guk and Jisoo but I really believe that it was perfect drama in this genre. Plot is like a mix of: 7 first kisses, Love alarm and Drama stage Love spoiler. Just the same vibe. Although I am a little curious why this app was only for girls, it could be just "dating app" - although I do not know if people would like it if it was "Girlfriend on demand".
Before I will go to characters I want to point out two missed opportunities - Of course I know that in both cases there would be probably copyright issues but they could make it work:
1. since there were so many cameos and they actually were some horror/ bloody scenes I hardly believe that they should make two a little longer scenarios: one for Snowdrop with Jung Hae In since so many people love Jisoo's chemistry with him and one for Newtopia with Park Jeong Min since I love it so much and need more of them.
2. since SIG's character was drawing some couples I believe that it was perfect to draw his previous drama couples.
Now about cameos: there were so many and they were perfect.
Seo Kang Jun was more like a second lead and their storyline was cute - also he had amazing eyes color in it. Chemistry was on point. Their story was nice and cute.
I only wished we got a little more a storyline with bodyguard and enemies to lovers - simply I like this vibe.
I was also happy for some reunions:
SIG and Lee Soo Hyuk.
Netwopia between Jisoo and Lee Hak Joo (he was really fun characters, wished a little that it was a scenario with him, cause their chemistry in Newtopia was nice),
Snowdrop with Yoo In Na and Jisoo,
YG's family between Jisoo, LSH and Yoo In Na.
Moving on to actors/characters:
Jisoo - no, her acting was not bad, neither here neither in her previous roles, she was cute female lead. Her chemistry with everyone was great. She did really amazing. It was so relatable when she was cringing in too cute moments.
Seo In Guk - his character was so cute, near the end I felt that he was giving a vibe of Doom from Doom at your service (which makes me happy since it is my favourite drama) - I mean as hairstyle and some behaviors. Him in red hair, I repeat RED HAIR!!!! He looked great.
I really liked them in "real life" and in the app. In both cases their chemistry was so good and natural. I was happy that there was no unnecessary break up.
Lee Ji Yeon - was amazing friend, she was badass and crazy in good way - also her chemistry with cameos was on point.
Side note: the only other actresses which I can imagine as main female would be Park Bo Young (with SIG as main male character) or Kim Se Jeong (with I do not know who).
Talking about missed opportunities - I found some easter eggs (maybe the ones I only see but whatever):
1. When they were watching horror movie in cinema, when she said she would protect him - it reminded me about her saying that she would protect Park Jeong Min in Newtopia since she killed more zombies
2. Scene where they were reading comics and Jisoo layed her head on his laps and he gave her tangerine- it reminded me when he was reading with Park Bo Young in DAYS.
3. All in all scenes in the meadow reminded me a little of DAYS, when PBY's characters was talking with Deity.
To sum up this too long and chaotic review with too much spoilers for more than one drama XD - I believe that it deserves a chance, if you like romcoms then it is a must have, especially when episodes are not too long and there is only 10. It really is an easy and relaxing watch with cute chemistry and very likeable characters.
