Nobuta wo Produce was the drama that made me stay and keep looking for good japanese dramas (especially those school themed, friendship types). Because of that I have found too many precious dramas like Gokusen, Atashinchi no Danshi, Last Friends, Proposal Daisakusen, Meichan no Shitsuji to name a few. I kept looking for the same plot, feels and for the artists. I t was because of Nobuta and Hana Yori Dango that I have come to love Japanese dramas.
SOULMATE...I saw it in 2013, a year full of great discoveries in terms of dramas to me (I discovered In Time With You and Last Cinderella that year). I simply love it. At first I never really liked the cast, and feels like the drama was outdated since it was a 2006 drama you know the quality of the shots but....as it progresses, I came to love it bits by bits. I jsut love the main couple, the way the story was portrayed and my annoyance and relief at the ending. Soulmate is a great drama indeed.
I didn't like it and Kang Dong Won is one of my favorite korean actors but he didn't make me like the movie. I feel like it was lacking, and KDW was forcing his acting. Hwang Jeong Min wasn't great in this either. Boring and typical story, predictable. Of all Kang Dong Won movies I have watched, this one is the only movie I rated 7.
This movie is so ridiculous, I mean, I don't know what have been in the minds of these A+ actors (Son Ye Jin and Chen Bo Lin) to agree to star in this movie? It was lackluster story wise. The actors couldn't even save the mess with this movie. I cant even see a tiny bit of chemistry between the 2 leads. I like Son Ye Jin and love Li Da Ren, I mean Chen Bo Lin and watched because of them though initially I knew its not a great film (just from the poster alone, you'll feel it, it wasn't even well received at the box office both in china/taiwan and kores). Please pick a better project next time Son Ye Jin and comeback to a great drama Chen Bo Lin.
I have watched 9/15 dramas you listed and among those, Hanadan, Proposal Daisakusen & Bloody Monday are the best…
I like Koizora drama version best than movie. As for Bloody Monday if you have not watched it properly before then I recommend you to watch it, there are two seasons, and it certainly is a very good drama, full of thrills and tricks. I love the ost too. With Last Friends, I watched it because of Prodai's Rei (Nagasawa Masami) and I really liked it, its about 5 friends and their inner struggles. It might sound boring with that description alone but it is actually thrilling. One Liter of Tears will make you cry a liter lol but really its one of the most recommended Japanese drama. Atashinchi No Dansi is a Gem. I love Mukai in it and their little cute moments with "shorty". The brothers bond, how I wish I could find a drama with that kind of story again. And with Proposal Daisakusen, gosh, I cant remember how many times I've cried with that drama and how many times I have rewatched and recommended it to my classmates. I have learned so much with that drama, ProDai and Nobuta made me feel more humane lol.

I just love Japanese dramas since I watched Nobuta Wo Produce, Proposal Daisakusen and Hanayori Dango. What cemented my love for it are dramas Liar Game and Bloody Monday. To love it even more are Atashinchi no Danshi and Last Friends. To have it remain in my heart are One Liter of Tears and Koizora. I can easily name my Jdrama favorites than Kdrama ones. I'll try watching Keizoku 2: SPEC and Kazuko Game (i've been putting that on hold in a long time now).
its 7.8 rating for me. slow on the first 3 episodes but got better the following eps. Babayako's acting feels kind of off, maybe due to her character but I get used to it. The ending is quite cheesy but satisfaction to the fullest. It will left you smile and wish you have those kind of friendships.
One of the best Japanese drama, Its simply amazing. The korean remake has struggled with the way they handle the theme of going back and forth to the past/present. This is the only drama where in I cried in most of the episodes except one. I learned a lot of life lessons and their friendship is just that what you call a #friendshipGoal. I dont know why when I watched it, I was just deeply immersed with the show and I can feel the over flowing of emotions. I have rewatched it a couple of times and even recommended it with my classmates then. I was so confident that they will gonna love it but..I was not wrong. They did fell in love with the story though most just like everyone else was feeling frustrated with Ken not being able to confess. I dont know why but I didn't feel any disappointment and frustration of him taking so long to confess. I am even loving the slow progress of their love story. My favorite scene was their unlikely graduation ceremony with that second button. I cried so much with the Rei's grandfather part. Gosh, I can even memorize what happens every episode. That's how much of an impact this drama gave me that none with the same type of genre has outdone it for me. The OST Ashita Hareru KaNa was really great that I always love listening to it after more than 5years. It was one of the best OSTs around.
I enjoyed this drama. I like Park Jin Hee and Kim Bum is likeable too. Not over the top-cheesy romance. Just somehow really, I loved it and the ost was great too, I also adore the friendship of the 3 girls.
it was in the middle of getting bad, so its not good enough thus people call it Over Hyped. I dropped it at episode 6. I admit SJK was damn good in this but the way the story was written especially their love story with SHK, nah, it was way too cheesy and unbearable for me. Actually, recalling those times I watched this, I feel like it was because of Song Hye Kyo thats why I stopped, to add to that is that Shinee member Onew (he is over re-acting really.) For SHK, I dont know, just her character and her acting is a no for me. And as a whole, I feel like the story doesn't even have a plot. Where would it go? But still I respect those who love this, its just my opinion anyways. Six Flying Dargons, Signal, and Reply 1988 are the best dramas of 2016 so far for me.
It was draggy. So many unnecessary scenes. I have thought of dropping this more than 10 times but pursued for I want to answer my question from the start "Will she love him? Yes, Im talking about Wallace. Towards the latter part I want to answer my question "Does she love him?". Lol I watch it for the main leads. I really dont care much about medicines and the other unnecessary details. Would rate it 7/10
