The story was a bit formulaic and cliche, but warm and cozy nonetheless. The best part was Koume and Gen's pairing (and bantering), as well as the ending song scenes.
A heavy makjang drama with a chaotic, unnecessarily complicated and outrageously unrealistic story that had very little to do with the original well-known classic novel it was based on. Unfortunately, the great performances of the cast and the magnificent production, cinematography, colouring and directing weren't enough for the weak story to be ignored. Overall, great visuals of a mediocre substance...
Short and enjoyable, easy to binge historical Cdrama with satisfying chemistry and a well-paced story. Nothing very memorable or groundbreaking, but good for a weekend watch.
A gripping, tense and very disturbing story, full of secrets, rituals, violence and raw depictions of the worst parts of human nature. With an eerie cinematography and music score, this dark drama is a challenging experience, even for the strong-hearted.
A fragmented story of a broken woman. Dark, raw, depressing, yet compelling, with a riveting performance from Matsumoto Marika. Definitely not for everyone...
Feel-good and easy-going law drama, spiced with some romance here and there, and a great duo from Arimura Kasumi and Nakamura Tomoya, with a fantastic chemistry, full of support, character growth and witty bantering.
Painfully realistic depiction of characters, feelings, thoughts, emotions & various situations of athletes' lives. Inspiring quotes, great acting and solid plot. A great watch so far!
Though a bit imbalanced when dealing with the various subplots, and in spite of almost 'abandoning' somewhere in the middle the team Genie missions for two unnecessary darker side plots, it was a heartwarming healing/found family story, with great team work and acting. Its best part definitely was the father/son relationship of Sung Dong Il and Ji Chang Wook's characters.
Funny, refreshing and very entertaining, with the right amount and type of comedy. This role was written for Namkoong Min and his suave charisma 🥰 I really think this will be a one-man-show and I'm here for it!
Bloody, violent and gripping story of a bullied underdog determined to stand up and fight till the end. Great action scenes and acting, and a fantastic bromance chemistry between smol Kim Min Seok and suave Wi Ha Joon! Looking forward to the upcoming sequel drama.
Surprisingly entertaining, though it's a non-brainer quasi-musical comedy, spiced with melodrama hints. The best part were the visuals, the colour palette and Li Qin's charms.
Great performances from Seo Hyun Jin, Ahn Sung Ki and little Joo Ye Rim in a devastatingly sad story that tried too hard to be tragic, without investing much on the characters, but rather on the actors' performances. The movie is not bad at all, but squeezing the viewers' emotions in a story which is already a tearjerker is considered as emotional manipulation in my book...
Dark, heavy and very emotional, with a realistic as well as delicate approach to a difficult subject and great performances from Muro Tsuyoshi and Sato Ryuta. Though it's short (only 5 episodes less than an hour long each) it's slow-paced and the main focus is on the aftermath of the disappearance case on the victim's family relationships and emotions, rather than the incident itself.
An anthology of 6 heartwarming stories full of nostalgia, memories, mistakes, regrets, dreams, love, longing and valuable life lessons. With a stellar cast and a delicate cinematography, it was a pleasant surprise worth watching.

Admittedly, nothing but a guilty pleasure watch!
