Story: A girl who gets her home stolen behind her back by her best friends while she has been sent off on an overseas "trip". Along the way she meets a famous actor and low and behold when she gets back home she finds everything changed including the owner - who she had just recently met *surprise* lol
Cast: Bi Rain was so adorable on this drama (it's the first drama I saw him in). His expressions are priceless, you really get to see his "adorable" side in this drama (it's one of my favorite things about Rain), he can act so adorable in such a natural way and of course he can always yank the tears from my eyes when he gets emotional :'( Song Hye Kyo (also the first drama I saw her in) I became a fan of both her and Rain after watching this drama. She is a great actress, I really felt for her in this drama & totally shipped her with Rain <3
Music: Excellent - you'll be singing along in no time ;)
Re-watch Value: 10/10 b/c I have watched this drama at least 3+ times already lol

I teared up over most of the "personalities", squealed with excitement over Se Gi, Rolled with laughter at Yo Na, felt warmth with Do Hyun, hurt for Yo Sub, and had fun with Perry ^^ Little Nana was adorable and Mr. X was...just like I had dreamed (Yes I had a dream where Mr.X appeared) he would be - apparel and all lol :P He's definitely mysterious *smirk* <----Ji Sung pulls all these characters off so well, I'm left speechless. I for one could never pull off a girl role as well as he did (even though I am a girl and he's not lol). Ji Sung is definitely an actor people should keep their eyes on.
Hwang Jung Eum plays Ri Jin exceptionally well, she's a great actress (I just always wish she keep her hair long). I loved Do Hyun's relationship with Ri Jin, the trust that was built between the two & the past the entwined them together. The actors have good chemistry (anyone who has watched their previous drama together would know lol).
Oh Ri On (Park Seo Joon) was great at playing the brother and mysterious writer Omega, I already want to see him on another drama. This was my 3rd drama seeing him on - he is definitely talented <3
Secretary Ahn Gook (Choi Won Young) I like this actor and was glad when I saw him here, he's a very loving secretary who looks
out for and cares for our lead. I'd place him in the position of a dad, older brother "Hyung" or best friend.
Music: 'Auditory Hallucinations' by Jang Jae In & Na Show & 'Unspeakable Secret' by Moon Myung Jin were my favorite songs
from this drama, I have them on cd now and listen to them a lot ^^
I will definitely rewatch this drama someday & would recommend it to anyone :D The only reason I rated this with a 9.5 is because I wanted a little more closure at the end.

Story: Park Jung Hwan goes head to head with his former boss Lee Tae Joon in order to make a safer place for his wife and daughter to live in when he is gone. I loved their "battle talks". They'd seem as if they are enemies but could somehow still be cordial with each other and have fighting talks without getting into an overly heated argument. I'm amazed they didn't get indigestion lol
Cast: Park Jung Hwan (Kim Rae Won) If there is ever a good man who does not so good things but still makes you love him, then he is the one. Lee Tae Joon (Jo Jae Hyun) he played a bad character who I just couldn't seem to hate that much, especially toward the end, it's weird the longer it went on the more I found my dislike turn into an almost likeable state lol. Shin Ha Gyung (Kim Ah Joong) This is my first time seeing this actress but I must say she does a great job, sometimes her character was a bit too righteous or good but if you're a prosecutor who is supposed to follow the law, I guess that's how they should be. But I think if you keep getting squashed you should try something else that might work as long as it doesn't go against your conscious too much lol. and now for Yoon Ji Suk (Choi Myung Gil) <epitome of wicked, I seriously hated on her character throughout the drama. Park Ye Rin (Kim Ji Young) PJH & SHG's daughter - she was special on this drama, really brought the family ties into the story. All other casting did great in their roles.
Music: Besides the instrumentals which were great, I can't say that I remember any songs...
Re-watch Value: 9/10 I'll come back to this drama if I need some intensity - cause this drama really kept me "on my toes" inside my head - with all the battles with words.

So Ji Sub looked really good all rough and sexy and Han Hyo Joo was really pretty on here :)
I loved how their love story developed, it was sweet and romantic - their pasts are entangled.... it's just beautiful <3
I've watched it twice already and my sister even bought it for me :D the dvd version however cuts a couple scenes that the YT version still has (I wish it didn't but it does...)
I'd definitely recommend you watch this movie - and this is coming from a person who isn't too keen on Asian movies :)

Story: a Male band who seemingly fails every time, decides to move to the country and make big bucks by growing cabbage to sell so they can make an album - we follow their 'adventures' as they go from 'city punks' to 'inexperienced & naïve farmers'.
Cast: Lee Min Ki (Lee Hong Ki) the leader of the band, I thought he was really irresponsible throughout most of the drama (I started this drama for him though...) but I didn't finish it for him. Kang Hyuk (Park Min Woo) *anyone else think this guy resembles Jo Sung Mo?* Anyways, he was my Favorite character (and I shipped his 'love-line' :'( ) He was the most 'real' character who didn't over-exaggerate many of his scenes. He was super cute on here, all those adorable faces he'd make were worth watching^^ Whether sad, happy, in love or being cute - he was my bias <3 Han Ki Joon (Kwak Dong Yun) *now I was surprised to find out this guy played the younger version of Kim Hyun Joong on Inspiring Generation - his character on here was SO different from his character on IG* - He was the funniest character - I had a lot of LOL moments with him (I especially loved his "hang-up" scene) hehe ;) Yoo Han Chul (Lee Shi Eon) the character I couldn't stand basically - he was fine when he was serious but he over-acted and honestly his character made me nauseous & really annoyed most of the time >_< Kang Yoon Hee (Lee Ha Nui) I honestly didn't care for her unless she was around Kang Hyuk - *now this may sound harsh* but I don't find her attractive and I hated her voice....(my own personal opinion) If they would have left out any romance with her character I could deal with it but...Park Sang Deuk (Suh Dong Won) I wish he wasn't a part of this drama - he was the most revolting (at first he was fine but somewhere towards the middle I started to skip all his scenes (he basically only did 3 things every time he appeared anyways >_<)...Kim Soon Boon (Oh Young Shil) I loved her character! she made me laugh every time she laughed as she'd run off! LOL (the rest of the cast I won't mention - they were either good or bad or any other kind)
Music: the sound effects were the best - as for music I really only remember Lee Hong Ki's songs...so it's nothing overly special to me...
Re-watch Value: None, It was fine to watch once, but I have no desire to see it again.
*I personally like 'normal' comedy not 'forced' comedy...& I think this drama had a lot of 'forced' comedy in it...

This drama had lot's of depressing moments, the only reason I continued to watch was for Kwang Chul - he was the star of the show to me (not In Ae) In Ae frustrated me several times!
I don't have much else to say since I am so disappointed by how this drama turned out in the last 10 minutes....Let's just say this drama is pointless - throughout the entire drama we hold on to this one small smidgen of hope and it basically gets kicked out the door by the end :'( I am disappointed beyond words...I wasted my time watching this drama - I'm so so so so mad at the writer >_< this drama could have been a 8.5 but with the way it ended crushing all my hopes it goes down to a 3.0
I will NEVER re-watch this drama >_<
the Title - Endless Love - turns out to be a pointless love >_<
Characters: Kwang Chul who is in love with In Ae, get's beaten probably more than is humanly realistic - in real life he probably would have died within the first 3 episodes...He has like 9 lives on this drama...
In Ae, a girl with revenge on her mind - my problem with it - she tells the people that she's after them - talk about asking for a death wish! We see her in and out of prison several times and in and out of the hospital several times - but she never learns to sharpen her knife quietly....so frustrating...
Kwang Hoon - a power hungry jerk is how I explain him best. I never liked him.
Se Kyung - the most annoying character on this drama in my opinion - I hated seeing her all the time - I seriously wanted her to disappear or at least stay FAR away from Kwang Chul - but she doesn't listen...
Villians, what can I say they are evil but not any different from other villians I have seen on other dramas.
Music: I Love You by Jo Sung Mo - my favorite song - and I will still listen to it - even though I ended up hating this drama.

Storyline: Nothing new besides the fact that it is a historical drama with guns...The romance was mediocre, I thought they looked nice together in the beginning but it started to burn out over time and I wasn't convinced anymore, some people had 9 lives and some characters acting got stiff over time..
Music: OST was pretty good but nothing extraordinary.
Re-watch value: 2.5 I don't expect to be watching this drama again.
Drama's that are a little similar but much better I mentioned above.
I was expecting more action and intense scenes then the ones I got. It was a disappointment.

Story: was good - it had a good beginning & end
Music: was good - I liked Lee Seung Chul's song best
Re-watch Value: possible (b/c of Lee Seung Gi)
yeah...I guess I don't have much to say other than that lol - I did like this drama, but it wasn't my favorite...

Story: very cliché I've seen several dramas like it but better made than this one - obviously this one is a lot older than other ones I've seen but it wasn't very engaging - had a very "depressed" feel to it throughout the entire drama - the only highlight for me was seeing Lee Dong Wook appear on screen.
Cast: can't say I liked anyone except for Lee Dong Wook and his girlfriends characters - I kinda liked RSW's character but I hated the fact that he smoked ALL the time (literally in like every single scene he was in) - I never liked the 'rat' guy (yes I think he resembles a rat) he was way too cold and unfeeling - his emotions do not get displayed on his face....
Music: was probably the only thing I actually liked on this drama - the 1 theme song and all the café bgm's
Re-watch value: never gonna happen....
It's sad b/c I was really hoping this drama would be like the drama 'Truth/Honesty' - but it wasn't at all....

This movie really pulled on my heart. I felt for our lead so much, when he cried I cried, his pain, struggle and desire were so strongly portrayed by this man - it was so realistic and heart-renching <3 I enjoyed their journey. and I can say once again that I was taken by surprise toward the end! And I liked how they ended it too. This movie had me in tears and made me laugh ^^ What these characters felt, said and thought really moves your emotions. *especially their inner thoughts*
I don't remember any particular music except for the ending song (but you'd have to sit through the credits to hear that one & I only mentioned it b/c the singer sounded familiar) :P
I would highly recommend this one! and I will definitely be re-watching it at some point! I might even pull my mom aside and have her watch it with me as we have very similar tastes in movies. ^^
I know a few people mentioned that they thought it was slow at first - I didn't really notice that - maybe b/c I'm used to these kinds of movies (as I have watched lots of old American movies and they all flow similarly). lol

The romance was good, I'm surprised I liked it actually b/c I'm not to fond of the main actress but she did a pretty good job on this drama portraying Hye Suk - she first comes off snobby and ambitious, haughty and arrogant but Eun Sung (the country bumpkin) rubs off on her and slowly chases away the cold wind in her heart. Their comradeire was really nice to watch, growing on each other from totally different viewpoints and coming to accept each other.
Eun Sung (Ji Sung) was often labeled the "idiot" b/c he didn't graduate from Kwang Hee University, so he'd get looked down upon quite a lot but eventually the doctors and residents came to accept him and the fact that he really isn't an "idiot". I thought Eun Sung and Kang Gook (Jo Jae Hyeon) were a lot alike - they both cared for the patients and sincerely wanted to save them - even if it meant going against authority. They were my two favorite characters.
The comedy was delivered by both Ji Sung and Park Chul Min :P They'd have me giggling by just the little things they did.
The guest appearance by Lee Ji Hoon - or maybe I should say supporting role - since he appeared in more than half the drama - he was sweet in his pursuit of Hye Suk and touching as a patient. I loved every scene he was in ^^
And little Kim Yoo Jung appeared toward the end of the drama as a patient and she touched my heart.
Music was great - I especially loved 2 songs - "Thanks" by Hong Kyung Min & "Bye Bye Bye" by Park Il
Re-watch value - it's good for a re-watch but I don't know if I will re-watch it anytime soon.
If you're looking for more than just a medical drama - then this is the one for you, yes there are plenty of medical surgeries but there is a great balance of romance too. ^^

I started this drama for Chun Jung Myung (Ko Yi Suk) b/c I've been a fan of him since I watched Cinderella's Sister, he has this cute boyish charm to him that is irresistible <3 And his puppy dog eyes could melt any girls heart <3 I loved the "nickname" he had for Cha Hong Do - whenever he'd call her "ugly" I'd smile - it was so enduring the way he said it <3 never offensive but sweet ^^ He was the best part of the show for me, I loved him since the first episode <3
I never really cared for the lead actress on any other drama I saw her in, but I must say I loved her in this - she was great at playing a patient with social phobia. She dressed really weird but that somehow fit the show really well lol
The supporting cast was really refreshing and good too, especially Doo So Jang & Se Ro <---Loved them ^^
Music was pretty, I liked the main couples ringtones the best lol - I already put Hong Do's ringtone on a cd & listen to it in the car lol
I would re-watch this, it was cute and fun - and nothing that irked me when watching - it was peaceful :) I would definitely recommend people watch this.

Story: a 70yr old man gets a chance to re-live his youth and see what he did wrong in order to correct his mistakes, what he believed to be right all along may not have been right...He'll see things differently through his sons perspective & a girl he falls for (mind you I skipped their romance scenes).
Cast: Choi Dae Han (Lee Joon) - My favorite and the entire reason why I decided to watch this drama and the sole reason why I kept watching 'till the end ;) He was entertaining to watch from beginning to end. All his smiles were dazzling^^ I would have fallen for him in a heartbeat <3 Handsome and wounded - his mending is on the way - It was beautiful and touching to watch <3 His father considered him to be troublesome and untrustworthy - that is until he realizes why his son was living that way. Eun Ha Soo (Jang Nara) an employee who gets entangled with father & son. Choi Go Bong/Choi Shin Hyung (Shin Ha Kyung) - This is the first drama I've seen him in and I admit he's a good actor & his scenes with his son were adorable - He's the chairman that gets a second chance at life - we see him go from selfish to caring during the process of this drama.
Music: Hong Jin Young ft. Outsider: 'Give Me Back My Youth' -
Re-watch Value: 5/10 - I more than likely won't but if I get an urge to watch Lee Joon some more I might pop back in to re-watch his scenes^^

I laughed just as much as I did the first time I watched this drama, it is very entertaining.
Enrique - Que Geum was my favorite character of all - SO adorable! Dok Mi reminded me of myself - just like she did the first time I watched it - I could relate to her a lot.
Music: not so memorable except for maybe 2 songs...
Cast: everyone played their parts well - Enrique, Dok Mi, Part-timer, & Panda eyes were my favorite characters in that order.
If you haven't watched this drama before - definitely watch it if you like to laugh and like a lighthearted story.
