Alchemy of Souls (2022– )

NO WORDS CAN DESCRIBE THIS KDRAMA !!

[9/10 · 8 April 2023]

I have watched a lot of kdramas years now and i know that fantasy gerne isn't my taste but this one prooved me wrong

i am really really amazed but the well written story ( although in s2 there are some plot holes ) , the development of the characters and the chemestry that the leading actors had!

I really felt deep emotions and i even suffered along with the characters and the story just fantastic and the plot twistes not predictable at all !!! The ost is pretty good and well matched with the concept. Also no words for the main actor leader ( i have been in love with him since '' exraordinary you'')

i want to add that at first in s2 i was very dissapointed that the main actress would be absent and i was really angry with the new that replaced her... but i liked her a lot too as i feel for her bright personality and i felt sorry for her story after some ep.

I think it would be better if i add some not so good parts of this show (they aren't many tho) 1. At first he was cute and an okay character but in s2 he was an irretated character to me as he was always sad and even more calm ... ( Hwang Min-hyun) 2 there are some plot holes and a bit of confusion especially in s2 but it is okay for me :)

As you can see i really loved this kdrama and i consider it one of my top kdrama , i really reccomend it to you and i am 99,999% sure that you will loved it too !!

Avatar: The Way of Water (2022)

ADRENALINE TO THE FULLEST

[7/10 · 28 December 2022]

Being a fan from avatar 1 , I was looking forward to watch the continue of this movie really much ! To tell you the truth i was a little disappointed cuz it was a well-known movie that everyone was waiting to watch what will follow after 10 years ... but it was so so

First of all I want to mention that everything was well organized and james Cameron tried his best .I really enjoy the story ( but I think that there are a few plot holes that I hope to be explained somehow) and I didn't understand how fast time past, I knew it was a 3 hour movie but it felt like 1 hour !?

Also there are moments that my heartbeat was about to burst, I felt anxious about what will come next and I felt emotions that I didn't expect... I even cried at the end .

There are a lot of moral issues and family issues that everyone can understand and identify AND of course there are a lot of message for the protection of the nature as well.

I recommend you to watch this movie especially at the cinema for full experience!

Can't wait for avatar 3!

Cheongchun Beullasseom (2022)

WEBTOON VERSION IS A MASTERPIECE but the kdrama is not the best

[5/10 · 24 December 2022]

Having read the webtoon first and become a big fan of this story , i was looking forward to watch this webtoon as a kdrama version but to tell you the truth i was kinda dissapointed

this webtoon is so underrated but actually one of the most amazing and well written stories i have ever read .. so i had high expectations for this kdrama

the cast was not the best .. i mean some of the characters are similar to the webtoon but their acting skills was a bit low . ALSO they change some scenes and they did not pay attention to other important . I have to add that the past - present was confused at first and i could not concetrate to one love story ... i would prefer to be like the webtoon every season a different love story.

Futhermore in webtoon my fav season was summer the love story between somang and haemin but the actress that played the role of somang was so irretated to me and the male actor's skills was nothing special... BUT i really liked the couple of bomi and jiyoung , they really gave it all and i am so happy for that.

If you have not read the webtoon yet, you should do it nowww cuz it is the best !

I reccomend you to watch this kdrama without high expectations if you have read the webtoon first ,but the plot is somehow the same so do not worry.

Imitation (2021)

Starts really good but...

[4/10 · 23 August 2022]

To tell you the truth I didn't have high expextations for this kdrama but I enjoyed it a lot!

I really liked the story between the leading couple and their romantic scenes , i liked the second lead characters as they were somehow funny at first...

However after ep 7 things started change ... the plot became weak and boring .I did not like the second lead couple ( the girl from ''team party'' & the boy from ''Sparkling'') it was just unessecary snf boring . Also there are a lot of different stories for every character that make the show worse.

I believe that almost eceryoine would write a better story after 7 ep . This kdrama had a lot of chance becoming a masterpiece but they did not take advantage of them ..

The Sound of Magic (2022)

Another Underrated Kdrama for no reason

[7/10 · 13 August 2022]

To tell you the truth i did not expect this kdrama to charm me so much !

I really liked the way actors and actress support their roles . Also this kdrama offer good messages to the viewers just in 6 eps !

They did not overdo it with the supernatural thing and the end was not that bad , it was quite intersting ( there are a lot of reviews in imdb that consider the end as a disaster... i do not think so )

The only thing i did not really enjoyed was the soundrack . I know this series is a musical but the lyrics and the melody were not something special and the songs were taking quite a long time to end .. Finally there are some boring scenes that i would like not to exist .

This show is obviously really underrated without reason . I REALLY RECOMMEND THIS TO YOU you won't regert it !

The Penthouse: War in Life (2020–2021)

A MASTERPIECE S.1 ,A QUITE INTERSTING S.2 and.... a disaster s.3

[6/10 · 13 August 2022]

Well season 1 could be my favourite , there are a lot of plot twists and it is so well written ! I really liked every character since everyone plays an important role in this show . If it ended in season 1 i would rated with 10/10 !!!

But i know because this series was very popular and had very high ratings they decided to make one more season .. .

Well season 2 is very intersting.. however there are some plot holes and it is quite boring some times . I would rate it with 7/10 ... it could be somehow better written without so much plot holes .

Let's move to season 3 .... THIS SEASON IS THE WORST!

From this season only the last ep is somehow intersting .. the plot is so weak and it is like soup opera .. in this season you can see the most supernatural things take place( keeping alive deads ,giving medicine in onder to forgot their memories, making even more confused the sotry with the hera kids. ) i would rate this season with 3/10 because i liked only some scenes with hera kids and the end ...

i recommend you to watch only season 1-2 do not waste your precious time to watch season 3 believe me .

When the Camellia Blooms (2019)

Didn't touch me

[6/10 · 5 August 2022]

Well let's be honest there are a lot of irretating characters in this series and the plot is so slow and boring.

The main actor is very very irretating and over romantic without reason but after some ep i get used of it.. the main couple was somehow weird and everything is so cringe between them too.

Also the kid is so spoiled , i tried to understand and explain his actions against other people but after some ep he just becoming more and more irretaing and aggresive wihout a special reason !

Futher I liked some second characters like mr No and his wife , at first i was bored of them but i really liked them at the end.

I liked some parts of the mystery and i also find some scenes really good and funny.

However i predected from the 5 ep the joker but it is okay ... i would also prefer the whole case about joker to be somehow better without any plot hole....

Last but not least the ex of the main actress ... well i could write a better story for him .. it was really pity that everyone was against him , yes i know that he did a lot of ''bad'' things in his past but he tried his best in order to be a good father !

If you are into soft and cliche romances then you can watch it but it is nothing special though...

Twenty Five Twenty One (2022)

OVERRATED & IRRITATED

[4/10 · 29 June 2022]

People call this kdrama a masterpiece but I think they are wrong...

Well the first 7 episodes were okay and overwhelming but after some episodes the plot became more and more weak and boring ... Plus that I didn't really like the role of nam joo hyunk ... he was so depressed and irritated especially at the end .Worst still is that the leading gril tried her best in order to pursued him and he was always rejected her !!!

Furthermore sometimes na hee do was pretty ANNOYED to mebecause she was always yelled !!

Also there were some really irritated characters that I hope not to exist and I would like the character of kim yu ri to be developed more smoothly because she suddenly started to be good to others :/

The ost was catchy and I really loved how kim Tae ri played her role ! She really proved that she is one of the best actress !

21/25 had a lot of possibilities to be a masterpiece but author had never taken advantage of that ...it's a pity though 😕

Snowdrop (2021–2022)

"I will erase my memories "

[1/10 · 23 June 2022]

Snowdrop is one of the worst kdrama I have ever watched... I can't imagine the fact that there are people who call this kdrama a masterpiece!?really now ?

The first 5 ep were okay and boring at the same point and jisoo played well for her first leading role .further more I liked some of the scenes with the hostages but after some episodes they started being irritated...

BUT after a couple of eps the plot became more and more weak and it was like the plot was a copy from LA CASA DE PAPEL almost everything...I am so disappointed that the korean industry produced such a copycat !

I skipped the most part of the irritating characters and other boring long and unnecessary scenes The romance and the chemistry between the leading couple didn't really touch me .

Also there are numerous plot holes that never explained !

The worst is that almost everyone at the end was a spy ..it was the worst plot twist I have ever watched

At the end I couldn't help but laughing, as the whole thing was not so well written and I struggled to finish it !!!!

I think that people who finished this kdrama should be rewarded, it is a challenge to end this without skipping almost everything!!

So "I will erase my memories" as yoeng-ro said and I hope you to do the same ....

Healer (2014–2015)

Predictable to the fullest

[4/10 · 13 June 2022]

Well well... I think that this one is by far one of the most overrated and predictable kdrama !

Maybe this is because it was published in 2014 and I watched it in 2022 but I believe I would rate it with the same price...

Let's start with the good news I really liked how park min young played her role it was something different from what I expected for her!

Also the first episodes were okay with a bit of suspense ....

On the other hand the ost were so boring and irritating it was like it comes from centuries before and didn't match with the scenes.

Also from the first 5 episodes I had almost predicted what will come next ... and I didn't like the fact that the main actor lead always acted like the hero and everytime saved the girl ... Moreover there were a couple of characters that would like not to exist because they didn't do something important but made the show more and more boring .

I would rather this kdrama to have 16 episodes or 12 ,20 were too much and after 10 episodes the story were repeated and becoming weaker . The last episode was the apocalypse! Hahaha I have no words for the end , i really want to jump into author's head and learn why they did this. Maybe they wanted to destroy once again the show I can't think better version .

I don't really recommend it to you guys this shows lacks everything and Don't need to waste your time to watch it believe me !!

Business Proposal (2022)

Disaster

[4/10 · 2 June 2022]

Having heard a lot about this series I couldn't do anything but to watch it with the feel that It has to be a masterpiece but I was wrong....

The first couple of ep were okay ,a bit funny and cringe too but after 6 ep the plot was somehow boring and weak .

Everything was repeated !

There were also some irritating characters that I would like not to exist ...

But above all the worst of all this was the main lead actor ..... he was copying almost every move from park seo joon and other actors and he wasn't played very well and his moves were so awkward (specially the night with sin ha ri🤢) ,I didn't like his character too...

The good thing is that I really liked the story and chemistry between the second couple and the main actress really played very well !

So there were a lot of things that could make this kdrama into a masterpiece but the author didn't really take advantage of them and end the show with a great amount of plot holes...

Fans call it a copy of what's wrong with secretary kim and true beauty but believe me this is like the fake one ....

I didn't recommend it to you , only If you are searching for a series full of clichés and very poor acting skill, this would be the best !

Yumi's Cells (2021– )

I didn't expect to love this kdrama that much !

[8/10 · 27 April 2022]

Well I was so curious to watch this drama as it is something different At first I thought that cells would be irritated but they are actually very funny and interested!( sometimes I catch myself thinking of them when I am into troubles lol )

I really liked the chemistry between yumi and woong , they was so perfect together that I feel bad for their break up but it was so smoothly developed that I was not blame anyone for this end.

Also I was really angry when babi talked to yumi and persuade her but after a couple of episodes I didn't have any problem with it :)

There are lots of really funny moments that I burst into laughing for hours and the ost is so catchy and suits so much! I liked every single cell and character!

Also I really enjoyed season 2 as well!

Everything is so well written and this kdrama is just so normal without over romantic and supernatural scenes that can happen only in kdramas .

At the end I couldn't choose which one team I should ship TEAM BABI OR TEAM WOONG , but everything is just so perfect that I didn't have any problem with the real end ;)

Highly recommended to everyone!!!!!!!!! You won't regret it.

Dali and the Cocky Prince (2021)

Soft and sweet

[8/10 · 22 February 2022]

Well I didn't accept to like so much Dali and the cooky prince The ost , some jokes ,their chemistry was amazing!

Some things that I don't really like is some TOOOO CRINGE scenes with the leading couple and that 15 episode was somehow boring However I totally recommend it to you if you like romantic comedies!

SKY Castle (2018–2019)

Money, honor, beauty Everything you want!!

[8/10 · 11 February 2022]

Sky castle is a masterpiece and I am so excited that I have watched a drama like that

Characters are so emotional and well created, I loved the way Ye So acts , she is so talented!!

The ost is so catchy and very interesting!

I liked that there are some scenes was so emotional and unexpected !!!!!

Also the villain woman was one of the best villains I have ever seen before Furthermore the message that offer is so helpful and good

The only things that I don't really liked was the way Woo Go act .. he was a little cringe but he did his best And some sceneswas quite boring especially in 20 episode

However this series is one of the best and I totally recommend it to you:)

Move to Heaven (2021)

OVERRATED! I didn't get the hype

[1/10 · 24 January 2022]

Well... this kdrama starts okay and I had already read some reviews here so I thought that it has to be a masterpiece !

BUT

The plot was soo predictable and almost all episodes was a different story that sometimes was getting more and more boring .

The main boy was tried his best I think to lead and support his role but his acting skills wasn't the best at all :/ Also I believed that the neighbor will fallen in love with the uncle as they had a lot of scenes together and they had chemistry too .However this never happened and uncle was with a woman that comes after 6 ep. ( so disappointed) .

What is more the plot after 5 ep was so boring and I struggled to finish it !!!

Above all the last episode. IT WAS SO CONFUSING. In the last couple of minutes a girl appears who was so creepy , make the things even worst

I don't really recommend this series and I think that it's too overrated.

Navillera (2021)

ABSOLUTELY Worth watching !!

[8/10 · 17 November 2021]

This kdrama is one of my favourites , I have just ended it and I feel so blessed that I choose such a brilliant kdrama to watch this period of my life !

To begin with ,the soundtrack is so cute and emotional ,also the direction is top!

Song-kang act soo good for his age and all the cast play fantastic too There are a lot of emotional moments that made me almost cry and I totally felt every character !

Finally it offers good messages to the viewers that everyone has a dream and should never stop believing in it .

The only thing that prevents me from rate this masterpiece with 9/10 is because the last ep was somehow boring but nevermind i totally recomend ''Nabillera'' to everyone !! It totally worth watching it.

Extraordinary You (2019)

Second lead sydrome

[5/10 · 6 November 2021]

'' Extraordinary you '' was good enough and i didn't expect this !

The drama has intresting plot ,at first Iwas confused but after that I liked it.

There are some really funny and cute moment that i liked them too .

But after some episodes I fell in love with the tragicest character ever ! The second lead guy...

ahh after this the romance and the chemistry between the second lead and the female lead was just soo hearbreaking and bitter ... The male lead has not so good acting skills as he is singer but he tried as much as he could ..but he was getting more and more boring ..he just cried and cringely smiles!!!

Futhermore i would prefer not to exist the second comic story as I didn't really like as it was quite boring too

When I reach at 28 ep the plot started to get boring because it was repeated again and again ... Also there are some characters like the romance between the elf chef and the girl that never undrestand why it was exist so i skipped them after some ep.

Finaly the last min of the end was useless..

all in all it is a good kdrama and i think that it's somehow underrated

highly reccomended !

Squid Game (2021– )

Intresting BUT too violent

[5/10 · 10 October 2021]

SQUID GAME is a series with a lot of common with HUNGER GAMES in other words it is like hunger game with more fantastic and weird challenges ..

The thing that Iliked was the message that it offers

''Money do not bring happiness'' and that people can kill their friend for the sake of money it has an intresting plot and actor's performances are good too i was also burst into tears in ep 6

BUT there are some disadvantages that should be taken into account ...

such as there are tooo many violence scenes that should not exist in my opinion and some plotwist that i had already expected them .

The issue with the policeman at the begging was intresting and i thought that he may help competitors to escape but he did not do something important to the plot , he could not to exist or be somehow different.

Finally it has a weak ending .. it could be better .

To my mind there are such a lot masterpiece of Korean industry and this one is not one of them but i reccomend to watch it only if you are 18+

Crash Landing on You (2019–2020)

NOT WHAT I EXPECT !!!! FANTASTIC STORYLINE

[9/10 · 11 September 2021]

''Crash landing on you '' was my first kdrama and then I got stuck with THEM !

Super plot and storyline , sooo funny moments that you can burst into laughs but there are sad moments that can make you cry too It is a kdrama with full emotionals moments .

I loved every single character and the leading couple has soo chemistry and romantic moments!!!AHHH the ost is sooo catchy too!!

This kdrams may help you to learn history as it talks for the war of south - north korea and it offers positive messages for the union of north -south Korea .

The only thing that prevent me to rate this kdrama with 10/10 is some special effects that it is too much but after 4 episode it stoped

I TOTALLY RECOMEND THIS KDRAMA TO ALL OF YOU !!!!

The King: Eternal Monarch (2020)

CONFUSING BUT INTRESTING

[6/10 · 9 September 2021]

This kdrama is intresting at all , actors play soo good and the ost is catchy . The leading couple has a lot of chemistry and good enough moments together. Also there are some funny momnets and plot twist that i did not expect .

But you should has a litle patient and wait until some episodes to undrestand what is going on because there are some actors and actress that looks like the same and at the begining i was soo confused and bored but after that i liked it.

It is really an intresting idea for the kdramas and i totally recommend it to you.

Strong Girl Bong-soon (2017)

SILLY- SILLIER -THE SILLIEST-SERIES EVER

[1/10 · 8 September 2021]

Fist of all it was quite difficult for me to rate a series with 1/10 but this one totatlly deserve it !!!

I struggled finished it as i was skipping a lot irretating, sooo DISGUSTING and silly characters that they should not exist .

Also i would prefer the scenario to concetrate on Do Bong-soon and her supernatural power BUT the show concetrate on a strange and i dont know what else mr that kidnaped girls ...okay ..i do not think that this villain help the show to be more intresting at all ..

Futhermore the plot was getting boring and boring and the the leading couple was getting overomantic and overomantic bruh!

The ONLY thing that i liked was the ost , the leading actress and her acting skills and some scenes with the leading couple .. nothing else :(

Doom at Your Service (2021)

A COPY FROM OTHER FANTASY KDRAMAS

[3/10 · 28 August 2021]

Reading the other user's reviews i thought it must be a masterpiece of kdramas but i was wrong...

TO tell you the truth i liked the 4 first episodes but after 5 ep the plot was somehow predictable and quite boring .Also some chararacters were so irretating and didnt play an important role ...so i was skipping the most of the scenes with them until te end ...

The chemistry between the leading actors was OKAY but it was getting more and more boring and overomantic,

Also i did not like the ''GOD'' i would prefer to be somehow better ...or not to exist too....

The only thing that i like was the song '' breaking down '' and some scenes with the leading couple nothing else.

Lost (2004–2010)

truly one of the best series in history !

[9/10 · 12 August 2021]

Everything in this series is just unique!

The characters recreated so well and smoothly and it really made you think about what you will see next and such a lot of times I identified with the heroes ''LOST'' has a lot of emotion -as it is like living with the heroes -and action too , you will never get bored !

The only thing that prevents me from putting 10/10 is the 5 season that I think it was a bit fantastic but once again this season is just as good as the others.

Money Heist (2017–2021)

An unusual series ! MUST SEE

[6/10 · 12 August 2021]

La casa de papel is a series with everything! It has plot twists ,a lot of action ,stress ,full emotions and above all passes good messages.

The only thing that keeps me from rating it with 9 is that it contains a lot of inappropriate scenes,and that netflix has put some characters who could have been somehow better ..like Manila..Also i would prefer not to exist so much throwback in the 5 season -volume 1- because it was a litle boring

i totally reccomend it to all of you !!!

True Beauty (2020–2021)

FUNNY FUNNY SOO FUNNY

[9/10 · 8 August 2021]

Still laugh ! I love this kdrama is one of my favorite ! The romance is so lovely and funny ! I like every character and no one of them was irritating ! There are so funny , cute and touchy moments ! I also liked the message of the story. I would not change anything !!

I totally recomend it to everyone ! You will love it!.
