A underrated gem! Best kdrama of 2020!

UNDERRATED AND A GEM!! Okay I am gonna be honest, this was my favorite kdrama that came out in the crazy year of 2020. The story was original, beautiful and ahhhhh swoon worthy. I am a sucker for destiny and fate-like stories, and this one is one of my very top favorite kdramas. Kim Go Eun and Lee Min Ho are both two of my favorite actors! The characters Jeong Tae Eul and Lee Gon had amazing chemistry and growth as a couple. The two different worlds of Korea was so interesting and captivating, of course the queen kdrama writer Kim Eun Sook wrote this one so I knew it was going to be fantastic. Woo Do Hwan did a incredible job with his two characters, he is a wonderful actor and hilarious, his duality was amazing. I loved how this drama showcased a love story that had no confusing breakups or unnecessary drama. It always was right up to the main point of the story and the fight for Tae Eul and Lee Gon to be together. I laughed and cried and fell in love every episode in this drama! Visuals were stunning, OST was perfect, acting amazing, plot incredible! And of course I love happy endings SO please do yourself a favor and watch this amazing drama!

This historical/fantasy kdrama is a lot different than most! It was spooky, like REALLY spooky. Some scenes were really scary, not gonna lie. This kdrama isn't really so much romantic as it may seem, there IS a love triangle, but it's not so intense, but there is a good reason for it! There is a curse upon the princess, and she goes above and beyond to undo it, she meets Heo Jun, who helps to try and change her destiny. The actor who portrays him is great as well! This drama is full of suspense, fantasy, witchcraft, action, thrills and emotion!

When I started watching this kdrama I wasn't really expecting what I was getting into. I will not give any spoilers but I will say you will laugh, cry, and really become deep in thought while watching this kdrama. It's eye opening, and it gives you more appreciation and understanding towards people especially the elderly. I think this kdrama is a lot different than most, it's sentimental and meaningful. I would definitely recommend this drama for people who can handle some tears. It definitely has a well written plot with twists in there. A must watch!

Such a cute love story ^_^

The cutest drama I have seen in a while! The love story is so cute and fluffy. Sol-i is such a adorable character and her long term crush with Heon and their growth together is so endearing. I had a little bit of the second lead syndrome only because DaeSeong's unrequited love made me so sad. Definitely a drama worth watching for people who love high school and love triangle type dramas with lots of personal growth and friendship! ^_^ !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Interesting and endearing drama!

I decided to watch this kdrama one late summer randomly. This was the first kdrama that I was first introduced to the amazing actress Shin Hye Sun! The story was unique, yet funny and lighthearted at times and emotional too. Seo ri and Woo jin are both very different characters and to see them come together was interesting. I loved their backstory and it just proves to show how small our world can really be. Yoo Chan was one of my favorite characters in this kdrama because of his friendly personality! Overall this was a cute and interesting drama to watch!

Edge of your seat type kdrama must watch!!!!^_^

Okay let me start out by saying firstly, I usually don't watch thriller, scandalous type kdramas but years ago I watched the british drama called "Doctor Foster" and when I heard they were going to remake that show into a kdrama AKA "World of the married" I just knew I had to try giving it a watch. I am SO IMPRESSED! It's slightly different from doctor foster of course but wow I loved it so much, the acting was AMAZING. The added details that was not from the original show was great! I absolutely loved this drama. If you like SKY Castle or Penthouse then you NEED to watch this kdrama. The production, cast, OST, everything in this drama was wonderful. If you want a scandalous, emotional, crazy rollercoaster of a tv show, then please watch this one and thank me later^_^

A must watch! So original and captivating.

I watched this drama at the very beginning of 2021, and wow I did not expect it to be that good. It's definitely worth the hype that it had when it came out a couple years ago! okay the storyline is SO original and unique and the acting is splendid. The plot is twisted and wild and captivating and wow! Just amazing! I binged watched this one pretty quick, it gave me anxiety and I just needed to know what happens. It always spreads a very good awareness of the struggles and hardships that a lot students face when they have strict parents in Korea. Very amazing drama, well done to the cast and writers!!! A must watch for any kdrama fan!

Okay, first of all, just stop what you are doing, just go sit down and binge the whole thing tonight okay!?! This is one of the best underrated dramas of 2019! I said what I said. Okay first of all I LOVE PARK SHIN HYE AND HYUN BIN! They have super great chemistry! This drama isn't a romance drama but it provides it for sure. This kdrama is SO unique. I can not stress that enough. The writing and production and visuals is EVERYTHING. It's thrilling, full of action and packed with scifi qualities. You will be rooting for Hee Joo and Jin woo for sure. This is a MUST WATCH. Okay? I also forgot to mention that this kdrama gives you ALL THE FEELS, at times you will be scared too (you'll know why later, plus next time it suddenly starts thundering and raining you will freak) Go log off and watch it now.

Someone special told me to watch this kdrama, and I am glad I did! At first it was kind of slow, but then eventually BOOM it shoots up like a rocket. This kdrama has everything you would want in one, it's thrilling, suspenseful, supernatural, emotional, gripping, and even at times funny! Song Seung Heon and Go Ah Ra were phenomenal in their acting! They had good chemistry too. Plus they made the best team! Make sure to get some popcorn for this intense gripping drama! And yes you might want to grab a box of tissues cause...you know how kdramas can be. And this one is no exception.

Lot's of people dropped this drama after the first few episodes (maybe because of the violence?) BUT DON'T DROP IT. Literally this kdrama is like a roller coaster. It slowly goes up to the climax.... and them BOOM IT SHOOTS UP NOT DOWN AND IT GOES THROUGH ALL THESE TWISTS AND TURNS TO THE POINT YOU ARE SHAKING WITH ANTICIPATION TO THE NEXT EPISODE. The first few episodes are slow..BUT FOR A GOOD REASON, and you would know this if you continued to watch it. The first episodes explains the history and backstory of arthdal and the main leads. This is important. This is the beginning of the story, and I hope there is more to come BECAUSE WOW.

Gripping

This drama is definitely a must watch, it's close to as if the glory meets the fabulous! I was intrigued with Seo a-ri and Han Jun-Kyung's chemistry and needed more scenes with them together ?
Overall each episode left me at the edge of my seat, definitely has a lot of twist and turns and there was never a dull moment !!! I really liked how they portrayed how certain celebs/influences can be, unfortunately not everything online is truly how it is, and this drama speaks volumes on that topic, and how hard and how far people will go to become known to the world and the selfishness of those who are already there. The acting in this drama was phenomenal and the plot twists had me binging this series! Han Jun Kyung and Seo a-ri was a unlikely pair, but I loved it, I hope there is a season 2 to see what all these characters are up to

A classic!

Yoo Shi Jin and Kang Mo Yeon's first random encounter and then their love hate relationship, and then finally their adventure together was all very well done and fun to watch. I love Song Joong Ki as a actor and of course their chemistry was so real which made this drama even more interesting to watch. I loved the visuals, I loved the characters and OST! This was a very fun drama to watch! Definitely a classic in the kdrama world! :D

One of the best fantasy dramas! Spooky, mysterious, overall beautiful!

I cried, I laughed, I swooned, I loved EVERYTHING about Hotel del Luna. Of course IU is one of my favorite actresses, she did a amazing job. Jang Mon Wol is a QUEEN and her and Goo Chan Sung's relationship was everything, Their growth as characters and the way they both impacted one another. Each and every single character in this kdrama was interesting, there was not one dull character. SO many back stories and details that really brought the whole drama to life. It's original, unique and mystical. HIGHLY recommend this drama, the visuals were beautiful, OST was my favorite in a long time. If you like fantasy type dramas you need to watch this one. DEFINITELY one of my top favorites. It's spooky, mysterious, majestic and just *chefs kiss* ! Amazing. Please watch this one. ^_^

A gem for sci-fi romantic comedy kdrama lovers

I watched this unique drama when it first came out and I did not have any expectations for it. But wow this one is definitely a hidden gem. If you like sci-fi/romantic comedy kdramas then you NEED to watch this one. First of all I loved the storyline, I swooned over Nan Do, I think Yoon Hyun Min is a wonderful actor and his duality between the two different characters was very well done. I loved Nan Do and So Yeon's chemistry and their growth as individual characters, I loved their differences as characters. This drama made me laugh, cry, and feel warmth. Definitely a gem on netflix in their kdrama category!
