Coming from someone that loves Tucker & Dale vs. Evil.
This is a funnier version of Tucker and Dale vs. Evil, with a better plot/. backstory. I love that my most favorite scenes from T&DVE are in this one, but they're executed better, and more bizarre comedic nonsense is added. I hate to pit two bad bitches against each other, but it's appropriate here. I still love T&DVE, but HG is that gurl! The two MLs personalities are precious and ostentatious. If you like to cleanse your palette horror-slapstick comedy, this is you're hucklebearer! It's silly goofy fun that may give you a jump scare or two.Was this review helpful to you?

It will always hold a special place in my drama-loving heart
A special forces officer and a surgeon discover the love of a lifetime.
Gahhhhh - I adore this couple. Watching them fall in love will never get old!
The ML is a total alpha for the FL - so crazy protective, he’ll go to any lengths to keep her safe. I love all the times when he stands between her and danger, and when he’s willing to risk everything to rescue her… totally swooning over here! 🫠
Their banter is adorable. The bond they form amidst the tragedy surrounding them is soul deep. Their chemistry is beautiful. I seriously just love them 💕
And let’s not forget the bromance! OhEmGee, this bro-duo is hilarious! 🤣

A Great Transmigration Tale
Reality & fiction collide when the FL is pulled into a comic by the ML. As she tries to figure out how to get back to the real world, she finds herself falling for the man who has no idea he’s a fictional character. And also discovers a villain intent on permanently erasing them both. Will this duo learn to trust each other in time to save each other or are they doomed to cease to exist?I really enjoyed this drama. It was one of my first k-dramas years ago & helped propel me further in my love for foreign shows. The story easily kept my attention, getting me invested in these characters’ lives & needing to ensure they received their happy ending.
Such beautiful chemistry between a couple who faces unimaginable odds. Their choice to love defies the boundaries of time & space. Their journey is filled with peril & struggles, but that just makes their final victory that much sweeter. 🫶🏻
I laughed, I swooned, I worried, & I got teary-eyed. They made me feel all the feels, which is what I want from a drama. So this is definitely one I recommend to both fans of the genre & newbies to the wonderful world of kdramas.

Heartbreaking & Heartwarming all at Once
A nurse faces many challenges as she navigates the unfamiliar field of the neuropsychiatry dept. She meets a doctor, specializing in proctology, who quickly falls for her pure heart & genuine desire to help the patients in her care.This is such a GOOD drama. The overall plot line, pacing, & individual stories of the patients & medical staff are handled so well. The whole cast did amazing in their roles, giving life to their characters in such a way that the viewers could either relate to or sympathize for. Kudos to the writers & directors who brought awareness to the daily realty of those living with mental health struggles. These people don’t deserve our judgements & criticism, but rather our compassion & empathy.
Filled with inspirational quotes & wisdom, it caused me to really consider how I treat myself. We’re so often our own worst enemies. We should truly be kinder to ourselves…
Add in a precious dork of a totally green flag ML & you have a beautiful love story that shows what it means to truly love someone on both their best & worst days. I loved how both of male doctors were such softies when it came to their women. 🫠

Full of Laughter-Inducing Moments!
A chaebol who leads a second life as a detective + a woman with super vision. Will their joint investigation help them find the truths they’re both searching for?I thoroughly enjoyed watching the crazy antics of this duo {which had me laughing soooo much!} as they work together to uncover the mystery surrounding the ML’s mother’s death. The bond they formed lead to a beautiful and deep love. The ML’s protection of the FL makes me swoon and the FL’s desire to help him no matter the cost to herself is total girl crush worthy. 🫠
If you’re wanting to laugh, fall for the characters, and root for their victory over the bad guy then, imho, you can’t go wrong by picking this to be your next watch 😌

Intense Battles + Addictive Romance
Forced to adopt her sickly bro’s identity as a child, the FL grew up wearing a mask. But when he suddenly returns & wants to take back his identity & the credit for all she’s done, the FL is attacked & left for de@d. Miraculously surviving, she decides to determine her own path, taking a risk & joining the ML’s army, despite their rocky history. When he discovers the truth of both her gender & her previous identity, will he make her pay for her brother’s sins or will he help her get revenge on those who actually wronged them?Aside from the narcissistic, delulu, toxic SML, I loved this drama! These Leads are the type I enjoy watching. I liked all their humorous interactions & quickly became addicted to their sweet moments. I LOVE that the ML quickly learned FL’s gender & how sneakily helped protect her secret. And I’m really glad that the angst didn’t last long after her biggest secret was revealed. I appreciate that he investigated & dug for the truth rather than just 100% convicting her - he’s a green flag 💚
And their love… ohhhh, their love! This has some of the best confession scenes I’ve seen in a drama - so.good!!! IYKYK 🌝 I adore all their flirtatious & affectionate moments. And I cheered so hard for FL when she put that id¡ot SML in his place for the breakup - go, girl!! The way she didn’t hold a grudge when ML came back to her was aces - he apologized, she forgave, the end. So beautiful!!
If you like historical dramas with action, suspense, & sweet romance then I recommend giving this story a watch 🫶🏻

Good, but not great
This has an interesting concept - a ML who suddenly and unexplainably experiences the FL’s emotions… and she’s a total stranger to him! The FL doesn’t know that, though, so she’s real confused about this man who keeps running hot and cold with her, protecting her then pushing her away.Fate keeps putting them in each other’s path, a tentative friendship is born, and attraction flares. The ML finally allows himself to reach for happiness with her but then their love gets tested by a shared history that comes to light - the link between them.
I like that all the connections got explained, all the relationships defined. I’m happy that the good guys won despite the painful odds. And I’m thrilled the Leads got their well deserved HEA. 💗

Fighting for Justice with Humor & Heart
Once they were the best of friends. Now, their landlord and tenant. When the tension breaks will they be left as enemies or something else altogether?Would you sacrifice your own happiness for the sake of the one you love? This ML did. And, as he later worked through the consequences of his choice with the FL, they were finally able to embrace a love so deep that nothing could keep them apart. He’d loved her in secret for over a decade. Now, he’s free to love her in the open and receive her love in return.
Throw in some really great cases that have them fighting for justice in some humor-inducing ways with a hilarious cast of coworkers turned friends and this is definitely a show I recommend you don’t miss out on! All.the.feels, swoon worthy kisses, and happy dance victories 💃🏻

JUST WATCH IT !!
I watched this show before the Korean media and public threw a tantrum. The series was good and enjoyable overall, but it could have been shorter. I understand why they made 12 episodes, but I found myself fast-forwarding through some predictable scenes. However, the funny rom-com moments and the fight scenes were great!My main issue is with the Female Lead (FL). At first, she was portrayed as a strong woman with memory loss. But after she regained her memory, her character became invisible. This felt off and was a missed opportunity.Also, my two cents about the FL being cancelled: it is a huge missed opportunity for the entertainment world! She is a talented actress, and throwing her away like this is just a waste. Still, it is a good show that is worth watching.Was this review helpful to you?

Exactly the Kind of Drama I Love to Watch!
A young woman sets out to unveil the truth after witnessing her parents’ murder. After concealing her identity, she meets a young prince who is on his own quest for justice. With her amazing medical/forensic skills paired with the power behind his title (& his own excellent skills), this duo tackles some of the hardest cases while working to vindicate their loved ones.I LOVE this drama. The plot & pacing were well done, the scenery & costumes are beautiful, the script & cast are engaging. It has a heavy focus on the cases (as it should!) but never feels too convoluted to follow. It has darker elements due to all the deaths they’re investigating, but there’s a good amount of humor to balance it out.
And there’s an abundance of love. Within the blood & found families, amongst the friendships formed, between the “servants” & “masters”. And, of course, there’s the mesmerizing love of our Leads.
They made such a dynamic duo. Both extremely intelligent & honorable, kind-hearted & humble, courageous & loyal. They had such a healthy relationship, 100% supportive & completely devoted. They didn’t give our hearts any stress or make us fear they’d let one another go. They bravely took on any foes & protected their love against any attacks. I truly wish writers would give us more healthy love stories like this!!
IMHO, this is a must-see for fans of historical dramas, the crime & mystery genre, &/or romance lovers. This is one I rewatch again & again! 🫶🏻

What a Beautiful Portrayal of True Love
High school desk mates (& first loves) are reunited when a reporter goes to a bar, Overtime, not knowing it’s owned by the man she’s never forgotten. And she’ll come to know that he’s never forgotten her either…Oh to be loved how Sang Yan loves his Yi Fan!🔥🫠 This drama is absolutely beautiful. These two are the definition of soulmates & despite the tragedy that caused their 6yr (8? Subtitles unclear) separation after graduation, their hearts were never absent from one another.
I love everything about this. The past flashbacks, the present low-key tension, the slow-burn romance, the solid friendships, & the sleepwalking encounters. Every intense look, accidentally-on-purpose touch, & heartfelt word had me hooked.
They’re both amazing people who show incredible growth, courage, emotion, & devotion throughout their story. The FL especially - she has endured some horrific circumstances (‼️TRIGGER WARNING‼️) & been at the mercy of evil people BUT she doesn’t allow it to break her. Scare her, bruise her, influence her, & hurt her - yes. But break her? Never! And I LOVE that she cut ties with all the toxic people who never deserved her.👏🏻
If he’s her sun ☀️, then she’s his guiding star 🌟 - forever leading him to her. Apart, they’re merely going through the motions. But together? They’re truly living 🫶🏻

Addictive & Unforgetable
This is an incredibly well-done drama.The storyline. ✅
The pacing. ✔️
The characters. ☑️
I was pleasantly surprised by how much I thoroughly enjoyed watching this. It kept my attention so easily I found myself quickly watching episode after episode to find out how their story would end.
The emotions. 👍🏻
The revenge. 🙌🏻
The love. 🫶🏻
The Leads were phenomenal in their roles. Their strengths & vulnerabilities; their highs & lows; their cleverness & brokenness - they both did a fantastic job bringing their characters to life & making the viewers feel invested in their story.
The multiple side characters were precious as well with their loyalty & devotion to the Leads. 💕
The villains were so very easy to hate! 😡
I highly recommend this drama for fans of the genre!

Somebody love him please!
Started great..got slow, then I just wanted resolution. **Spoilers** My gosh I love a tortured character but crap sometimes it was hard to watch how callous they all were to him. I never hated everyone else in a show from how they treat one person. He never did anything wrong. Sweet, nice, caring, loving, protective, not overbearing, self-sacrificing..I could go one. And she ignored it all cuz he "may" become the devil lord???? Even his master had better faith and insight later in the show. Great main male character, but I hated her most of it. I couldn't hate him for loving her tho...poor guy had no one. Also omg he is so beautiful in every version. She also never told him she loved him...sincerely. He was perfect, I loved his master, I loved all the make up, oh and the enlightened life was the best part.Was this review helpful to you?

Another Underrated Gem
A prodigy in the Chinese traditional game of GO who literally sees in black and white + a female reporter/chef who is the only spot of color in his world.Really short review but I just had to share that this duo is pure couple goals. They’re so innocent and adorable, with a bond nobody can sever. They stand up for each other and protect one another no matter the cost to themselves. They support each other’s careers and encourage one another to chase their dreams. They don’t shy away from the other’s trauma but rather help them find healing. So beautiful and worth the watch!
Also, you don’t have to know anything about the game of GO to enjoy this drama - I know absolutely nothing. I’m honestly not even sure if my country has that game… 🤔

Both sweet & sour
If you’re in the mood for a fluffy drama that doesn’t take itself too seriously, you can give this one a shot. It’s a sweet love story between the postgrad psychology student FL & the younger ML who’s always loved her.It’s got:
- age gap (27yo FL, 21yo ML)
- Leads grew up together trope
- controlling family members
- push-pull tension
- love rivals drama
+ more
I enjoyed this drama as a 1-time watch. The Leads have good chemistry & I liked their life long bond. The ML is 100% devoted & all about the FL. She struggles due to the age gap which brought about too much drama for me to really love it, though. Plus her family is… eek!
I’m still glad I watched it as it is a cute story & a fun way to pass the time. 🙂
