I liked the idea of him not being able to recognize faces, and if that was the only route they took, this romance could be so much better, but i hâte the mash up, and it didn't work well.

OST-
It was okay, but it didn't make me care. If you play ost now, i wouldn't know they were in this drama.

ACTING-
Acting wasn't bad, both actress and actor did well, I liked that actor did well in being cold and stern, and actress being over with changing hah.

PLOT-
It was okay? I feel like the idea could've been explored MUCH better, and hâte that They just wanted to add so many types of issues to make the drama interesting. It's sad, but this drama could've been much better if the writers did a better job. I hated him being so cold, its just such a cliche it makes me bored and annoyed. The romance is okay, i Felt that the ending was boring and very predictable.

Tearful and powerful

Personally whenever i came across this title, i would look the other way. It was old, and it seemed to just be one of those, tragedy series just by the cover. But i was wrong.. The only reason for poor rewatch value, i don't think i can handle this much tears and sadness the 2nd time.


OST

I liked the ost, i think in most times it suited the mood of the scene and i felt it fitting. I never was taken out the scene because the song was unmatched and most of the times i think , it being silent with no ost suited the mood.

ACTING

The acting was good on the girls part, having to play a role where physically it was demanding and being able to sell it was nice. The parents and siblings had a nice dynamic which made their acting shine, altho the dad was quite comedic and odd so i couldn't get into his lines, his facial expressions and the way he spoke was a bit off putting. The male character Haruto, i think his name was, was an okay actor. His emotions were very subtle and he had that douche face so in most scenes it was a weird lack of emotions. He could've done a better job.

PLOT

I think what this plot hits the most, because it was someone's real life. Seeing the book entries from the real girl's AYA diary was very emotional. Knowing the thoughts of the character were the real life girls thoughts was very sad and you can't help but shed a tear as the plot progresses and so does her disease. The title surely is true to a sense where you will shed a 1 litre of tears by the end of this drama. Of course the drama itself is not for weak hearted, and you surely need to prepare to wake up with swollen eyes. It tells a different perspective on life, and how unfair the world may be, and how no matter unfair it is you must keep your head up.

I wouldn't know if anyone told me the plot and general preview of the story, for it to be kdrama. When you Think of romance genre in kdrama, you'd Think of puppy love or hard core plotting. This has a Little of both, which makes this drama mature, yet not too mature for it to be hard to follow...

OST
I wouldn't per say listen to it separately, but i like the mixture of Spanish, English and Korean. IT's nice to hear that type of songs, and they were well picked, to kind of tell the story of scene without having to make characters emphasize that's silently going on.

ACTING
I don't know much drames that Park Bo Gum acted in, but i loved how he potrayed the character in this one. You couldn't help but fall in love with him. I also loved the chemistry between him and Song Hye Kyo. She Oslo did an amazing job, and im not surprised since she's quite popular for good acting. Both actors made the characters réal, and made the audience feel their émotion. The side actors did well too, none of them did a bad job, and complimented the drama well.

PLOT
It would feel boring when told, but you'll find yourself loving it and being invested in it.
It basically tells the story of a lonely woman who's a CEO of a well known hôtel company. She goes to Cuba, and finds herself wanting to see a sunset from a picture she saw, in réal life. She has trouble sleeping so she takes sleeping pills but still goes, she gets lost and pickpocketed, but find the place where the sunset was shot, she there meets a man who saves her from falling, and they go around Havana... When she gets back, they both find out that the man is the employée of her company. They face hardships, and develop slowly but neatly, with other characters.
_________
I LOVED the romance, it's slow but it still makes you blush and smileys from their cute interactions. But at the same time it can take a mature turn, and make you worry. The romance, isn't dépendend on plotting, but the hardship of a famous and rich person, who's quite older, dating her employée. there are many romance side plots, and even a plot of her ex that makes him develop from trying to get her forcefully, to mathurins into someone that wants to protect his family.
It's a show, for someone who wants a bit more of slower romance, and romance that doesn't have cute and funny interactions.

The description throw me off, as well as beginning. I didn't want another cliche to get bores over. But im glad that this could mix well wihtout you going *not another one*.

OST-
It was so good. I found myself listening the songs on their own. So good, and i liked the combination of English and Korean songs. And im not surprised that there are songs from Chen and Wendy and many more talents...

ACTING-
I loved it, i non stop commented how the main actress is really good at playing adorable girl. She never made me cringe, nor did main actor. They both potrayed their characters personalities well, and even side actors expressed their characters well.

PLOT-
The plot is very satisfying, i liked the idea of potryaing that the law and trials aren't as dramatic as they seem in drames. I liked how the the FL wasn't stuck up, nor how theres no rivalry for drama. It's a very tame love story, and it does not depend on misunderstandings. I also love how, lets say 'a enemy' because it wasn't really that, it only was there for 2-3 épisodes, was introduced early, but happened later on.
It really surprised me how much un-drama like it is. There's no bitchy women, nor misunderstandings to get the story going. It Linda shows how much this drama does not need those things, cliches to let it grow.

ㅠㅠ I re-watched this drama so many times that I had to make an review.

OST-
It was okay.

ACTING-
I don't know why but whenever I hear a drama Starring Eun Ji, I always know it'll be good. She played her character very well, and I was never disappointed. The main actor was great as well, although many actors can overdo cockiness or smugness but he never did that, he stayed consistent! The other actors, were great as well. Which made me sad since I wanted to see them mostly all the time, especially Ji Soo.

PLOT-
The plot is amazing! It portrays a teenage romance well, yet it isn't all about that! It has many more plot lines, and many funny scenes. It revolves around main lead and MC, but I felt like Ji soo's character should've had more spot light. I was fascinated by the plot, it wasn't a regular one, and sometimes it could get really deep. Don't let the name fool you, it will make you cry many times, and scream from cuteness of main romance other times.

I must say, the plot lines aren't just there, they are great, and I really appreciate them. It's not just a cheerful drama but a sad one if you watch it till the end.

PURE CRINGE

PLOT

I cant begin to explain how much filler there was?! It was so boring and it only has a plot at the 10th EPISODE OUT OF 13???? Its so bad. The girl is so annoying, as a bisexual female, if i saw a male taking pictures of another girl and me and starts fetishizing us, i would’ve flipped. Its so disgusting, and it seems to be consistent in thai bl dramas. Honestly she would’ve been fine without that trait, and i know it is like that so that the audience can relate, but i have serious issues if they do relate. Its disgusting behaviour, gay/bi/pan people do not like when you make up narratives about them and their friends just cuz they like the same gender, let alone go on and record or broadcast it. The main couple is boring, as i saw comments on the episodes, i understood everyone thought they were boring, plain, and honestly shouldn’t even be there. The other couples are also uninteresting, but less than the main. I also question the sudden plot points made in last 3 episodes, given you just get a whiplash, and its executed so badly. In each episode something happens and then it resolves. Where is the build up? Where is the development? It seemed so rushed. The only people i saw that like this, are straight females that will eat up anything gay to feed their little fantasies about handsome boys kissing.


ACTING

It was bad, i dont know if its the bad writing or bad acting, or both but i just laughed. The character cried? The most funniest thing. You cant sit there watching 13 episodes, 50 minutes long, and tell me they are good actors. Tell me you felt it when they cried, were sad, or were broken apart. And casting is even bad. Half of them look like high schoolers, half like they’re in their 40s and half like middle schoolers. Its disturbing. They dont look in love, they look like they’re acting, and that is not good.

OST

Basic and bland, but what did i expect.

Yeo Jin Goe should've done better.

It was really good, gave me some goblin vibes. That one person who said it Will have goblin-type ending was right! hehe

OST
It was okay, but i didn't really Pay attention, it wasn't ear catching.

ACTING
Maybe because i watched all dramas IU has been in that i love her so much, but she was wonderful! Her cold-hot, bratty attitude was refreshing and not annoying! Yeo Jin-goo was fine, didn't partculary stand out sadly. He was main lead but was lacking in comparison of Lee do-hyun (past lover). Lee do-hyun and IU had such good chemistry i felt sad he wasn't main lead. Personally i didnt feel anything from him, and it seemed that if he was crying or sad, i'd feel more émotion towards Sanchez than him! Even tho he is main lead!!! Everyone praised him, but personally he was the only one lacking hère. Other actors who played side characters (Mira, P.O, Yoona, Sanchez etc....) were also gréât. They weren't lacking at all, and for side characters They did a fantastical job portraying their own charisma.

PLOT
It was refreshing to see it, a girl being stuck in Life forever, hosting a hôtel for dead. Pretty unique for me, and characters were unique themselves. They all had a part in the story and weren't there just to be there. They had history which is nice! Altho there were a few cliches that i hated, it was a drama where nobody was stupid enough to let a misunderstanding drag on and have a huge impact. I loved how writers didn't pull out a wild card at the end that something magical happenes and everyone is happy! I teared up réal hard at the end, but loved the cameo of someone spécial, it created a perfect opprotunity for a second season which i hope happens. The plot was nicely written with minor plot holes, overall it wasn't the best drama out there, but for a reason its hyped and loved so much....
BUT
The ML was actually very shallow. Now that i reflect on this drama, i dont like him any bit. The actor wasn't boring per say, because that is his character. He has a personality? Where? If you told me that he was a male lead i wouldn't have believed without watching all of it, since he seems too...boring. Was he only there to drive Man Wol plot or was he suppose to have a purpose? Heck Man Wol, who wasn't suppose to be expressive emotion Wise, was more than him. Which is terrible! The only reason i would watch this again would be because IU really performed well.

16 hours is not that long, but if you're watching this, it'll feel like 16 days

If wasting your time is what you like, then please do watch this. It’s only good as a background noise.

PLOT

Did someone in the meetings, say to make this drama a bunch of cliches and not even pull it off well? The whole time, i could see cliches upon cliches happening, and just failing to be something. Like a child writing every princess story and including everything from the original stories, making it super cringy and overcooked. Everyone agrees that the ending was not pulled off. They wanted to create a flare near the end, which ratings prove that it sparked SOMETHING, but couldnt pull it off in the end. This drama had no substance, the plot is only good on paper.


ACTING

It was fine, Lee Jae Wook seems to be best, and excel in being a cold and moody character. Im not sure if i like that because there were many parallels between (Sun Woo Joon) and from extraordinary you (Baek Kyung). Maybe similar in characters, but id expect for them to have differences and be able to distinguish, but not the case. This may seem insulting, but Go Ah Ra cant pull off a naive, dumb, rich girl. It just didnt work. It was like watching a older mature woman tryna act cute and innocent and being cringy. It just didnt work and she is a good actress, but this role didnt suit her.


OST

It was okay, i like classical music being incorporated in it, of course its a drama about piano therefore it’ll be classical, nonetheless it was an okay touch. The rest are just mellow, boring songs, and i couldn’t get into any of them. Would not listen on their own.

At first i was reluctant in watching this drama, i thought it would be slice of life slow drama, with tint of comedy and thats it. But i was pleasingly surprised.

OST-
It was good, there were some english songs, some old korean song, and even with tint of fairy tale songs. How i apes on the OST review is by how much i want to find the song, and some songs were searchable.

ACTING-
I really liked it, the main actress is very great, especially her crying that isn't cute, yet not ugly. The man actor is very good too, i saw him in other dramas and i was glad that he played the male lead role. The side characters were great too! Not really a side characters, but second couple were great, the actress played kind and naive girl, and actor played kind yet confused character.

PLOT-
The plot was very great, it shows the development of these ordinary lives and how life unreality is. The second couple was more what i liked, how love isn't always strong, or how feelings can fade. The first couple is great too, MC doesn't fall for ML straight away, she even goes on a date with someone. The ML has his problems, such as his fighting, and past romance that he can't let go. It doesn't have cliches, and a strong minded MC. It's not really for people who want revenge, jealousy or those kind of things since characters try to resolve these things rather than going head first. The comedy is heavy, and all episode i laughed at really hard.

I can't describe how good this drama is. Only 3 episodes, and yet it feels like I've watched 20!

OST-
I didn't pay much attention to it. But the piano playing was awesome.

ACTING-
Everyone did great job, mother did a good job at trying to protect her daughter yet being greedy at the same time. The main actress did well, her emotions were very visible and you couldn't help but pity the character. The main actor was great, yet somehow I was leaning towards Ji Soo more.

PLOT-
The plot is so great. It show the lowest points one could be, and what pressure can do to you. It shows how teens aren't as rock hard as they let others believe. The mother character is very fascinating, the actress brought her to life, and I love her! She's protective yet at the same time not realizing what she's doing to her daughter. The main character is very ordinary yet that's what's great! It shows her suffering and yearning to play piano and do things whilst being blind. The main lead grows from bitter to pitying and caring for her in a steady beat. The other male lead, who is led by a false claim to learn piano comes to love it greatly and help MC deal with her blindness in a most loving way! It's such a beautiful story! The ending was the most beautiful scene.

This drama is so amazing. You don't even realize, so go watch it! It's just so amazing that you would want to have a mop with you and beat everyone with it.

OST-
It wasn't much, but not lacking.

ACTING-
The MC did a great job portraying the anger that character felt. She never left me disappointed by lack of anger or other emotions. The other actors did great too, which says a lot since I wanted to slap most of them.

PLOT-
The plot is so amazing, you won't be disappointed with MC just taking hits. Beautiful friendships and heartbreaking betrayals. The plot isn't only centered around bullying yet other things that will keep you watching and never wanting it to end. The plot makes you experience sadness of bullying and other things, which is not what plots usually will do, proving its well written.

No wonder that this is much better than season 2. The story about dreams and heart breaks are a typical teenage drama. Yet this one delivers the teenage life at its best.

OST-
I don't know what ever I should say about their singing, or about songs that plays in the background, but both were okay.

ACTING-
When this came out I watched it and loved it, yet missed that many leads I knew previously. Anyways, Suzy did great, she played the arrogant girl well, and portrayed the characters growth great. She never let her character stray, and was focused. The male leads heartbreaking story was greatly acted by Soo Hyun. He made me feel his sadness. Other actors did well, which made my focus stray to them and pay them unneeded attention.

PLOT-
The plot is one of those, that makes you question why are you just lazing around. I also loved how they fooled me about the male lead at first. I loved how MC growth was apparent, and she didn't just change out if nowhere. The plot makes you feel like you can do anything you want, no matter who you are, how you look or what trials you're facing. I'm sad that the 2nd season couldn't deliver what first did.

Read More

This drama will make you experience every emotion possible. It's cute yet cold, yet sad yet happy. I didn't know whatever to cry or to smile.

OST-
It didn't really strike me, like some, but it wasn't lacking much!

ACTING-
IU's acting is really good especially back when she was only like 21 or 22. She greatly delivered a girl from 21st century discovering the ancient times. The fear she portrayed and cuteness was what struck me the most. The male leads acting was good too, the coldness was really present. I got scared at times, but soft at times when he was cold yet caring towards MC. The other prince's were great as well, and I was proud of Baekhyun for doing a great job!

PLOT-
It's a heartbreaking plot, they deliberately make you love everyone and then strike you with that history lesson. I was heartbroken when someone died, no matter how minor they were. The romance was great, and sad at the same time, especially at the ending. What made me smile through this sad drama, was the MC slipping to her 21st roots, making everyone weirded out. When I finished the drama I clapped, even tho there was no need to.

Read More

Like many others, when I came upon this drama, I've thought it would be just another drama, where being beautiful will get you everything. And I was surprised when I finished it, it became one of my top 20 dramas!

OST-
Music wasn't that memorable, nor anything special. I easily forgot it, although the opening music was catchy.

ACTING-
I really liked main actors acting, he had to have a straight face when saying something dumb and it made it even funnier. Main actress's acting wasn't bad, but I feel like she could've done a better job, whatever it was her or just the writing. The only actor I liked was the villain or her ex husband. He portrayed the slyness well, and the cowardness. It's kinda sad that in dramas I've watched with him, he's always the bad guy, but it suits him well.

PLOT-
The plot is good. The main character goes through hard trials, having to know the man you adored ** (this is a major spoiler, so I'll just say betrayed you) that your mother is treated like dirt and that all you had left was snatched. At first I hated her foolish self, but after couple of episodes, she realizes herself she was a fool. Her growth is what I like, as well as male leads. He on somehow the same level has to deal with a woman he loved marrying other and even being a accomplice to a **(let's just say - betrayal) . The show later on helps you realize that beauty doesn't bring you happiness, nor genuine love. That your fated one, will love you for you than for your body.

This drama was so great.
First of all-OST;
It was such a good collection of songs. Till this day I still listen to most of them especially *everything by gummy, and everytime by punch, Chen*
The acting-
It was great! The main actress did a great job, she wasn't over reacting nor under reacting! It was perfect and the characters emotions where portrayed greatly. The main actor did a good job as well, having a smug and cocky attitude but still humble is difficult and he did great! Other actors did great as well, especially Onew, as he had to portray very hitting emotions and he did so good.
The plot-
I won't dive into the summery, but it was well written. It showed that romance isn't long lasting, but can be rekindled! If she stayed with him even when he never told her why he had to leave in the midst of their date, I would've slapped writers. Altho the ending wasn't that much, since it's like *where does this ever happen*, it still gave me butterflies. Props to writers for doing something with the side romance, and giving it thought. I found myself more invested into side romance than main, but that could be just me.
